The old groceryman was in front of the grocery in his shirt sleeves, witn a watering pot in his hand, trying 70 brace up some wilted lettuce that had seen better days. After all attempts had failed and the lettuce laid down m its bed with an appealing look, as much as to say: Don't inject anything but let me die a natural death, the old man acted as though he thought the end had come. He had just taken off his hat. and was gazing at his dying patient, when the bad boy came up. and. with an under taker look on his

EDITORIAL

The Assembly Of Tuesday was q
solemn and monertOus occasion. at
which there was a display of patriotism
of which the country may feel Justly
proud.
Oplnion has indicated a firm ani
safe course. a safe direction for the
PRONUNCIATION of its just and inevitable
claims.
The people of Porto Rico have dis.
played dignity, with a reserve free
from insolent boIdness and a demeanor
with no humble winnings and have
pre- sented their claims before the ma
tisnal congress and the american peo-
pei insisting On a system OF goverA-
ment that is in keeping with the dig
nifty of people.
The memorial addressed to the
Congress of the United States was
nimously approved; it is the vo
luntary and spontaneous expression ct
popular feeling. the voice of the
country.
The imposing grandeur of the
triumph Of truth in the paragraphs,
and the spirit of that memorial, ih-
most emphatic the most severe of the
many which Porto Rico has produced,
is more convincing when it recalls
promises made by one people to an
other.
The claims in this memorial are not
weakened by exaggerated phrases OF
good feeling and adhesion, which are
less convincing when loudly pro
claimed.
There are no words of affection,
neither testimonials of obsequious es-
TEEN. The memorial contains no evi
dences of that weak submission which
was looked for by the functionarles,
based perhaps on unfortunate preced
ents.
The League of municipalities has
sounded splendid note. frankly Por
Ito Rican
1t is evident from a perusal of the
document that each speaker was recei
we'd with marked enthusiasm, that
Porto Rico has no hope OF salvation
from strange and antagonistic ele
ments, but that it seekj it in the
means which the colony itself pysseS
Ses,
Were it not FIR the fact that an anne
rican paper recently stated that there
We're Ill the mother country many Sc
nators of dense inteIlect w' would not

But W. fear that those men Of hazy
intellect will not be capable of later
preting the significance Of the memo
rial. Of measuring the state of feeling

importance of the document being

island in it's entirety free from all meek

form of expression to be adopted by
grieved and injured peoples.

Miss Grace Wetherbee of New York
a beautiful and gifted girl, who mad
all the advantages Of education ana
society that money brings, Is now
living on tho Shoshone Indian reserv-
alton, the wife of a full-blood Indian.
She dresses as .squaw, carries a
pappoose on her back. Is caroless IN
her manners and indiffereI I1 the
conventions which governs White So
ciety. But she Is regarded as
by the Indians and has richly earned
the title. The romance of Grace
Wetherbee and Sherman Coolidge Is
one of the pTettiest the west has ever
produced. Six years ago Miss
Wetherbee came to Fort Washakie,
eighteen miles enst of Lander, to
visit the family Of ]. X. X. Moore,
post trader here She met and i'm
mediately fell in love with Sherman
Coolidge, IA full-blooded Arapahoe In
dian, tall, straight as an arrow, with
piercing black eyes, supple body and
a mien and voice unusually earnest
for even an Arapahoe Indian.
He was then, as he Is now, en-
gagged in mission work on the Sho-
shone reservation. He called several
times to see Miss Weetherbee and
openly pressed his suit. She was not
slow in consenting and after all her
friends ro lived that she was de-
termined 20 become the red man $
bride and would elope with him #
need be, they gave reluctant consent
and the ceremony was performed.
Since that day Mrs. Coolidge has
lost many of the graces of the white
woman Of culture and education, but
she has look of supreme happiness
in her eyes and seems entirely con
i tented with her earnest, grave-faced
husband and the brown, black-eyed
baby she carries on her back.
On the reservation she is an an
gel of mercy, visiting the sick at al
times of TIE day and night, helping
the unfortunate and giving her hus
band the greatest help In his work oi
educating and uplifting the more ig
f. norant members Of his tribe.
