%- "The only thing that walks back from the tomb with mourners and re- fuses to be buried is. character says the LaHarpe Journal What a man is survives him. It never. rg can sa77 be buried. It stays about the home when his footsteps are heard there 10 more. It lives in the community where < he was known." Take that into remem- brance. Too many mems, lives end with an obituary. They pass away to- day and are forgotten tomorrow. It is not q big funeral which counts, but the words and friendships which in spired during life and live after death.

!. The new owner oi the Hildegarde brought her to America and for several seasons took delight in cruising in her, but when ten years later the ambition for a larger boat. steam propelled, too possession of him, he had the Niagara built. and the poor Hildegarde was sold to Gen. B. M. Whitlock for $20,. GOO.
 The latter had been experimenting with auxiliaries for yachts and he sent his new purchase to Bristol. where he had compound engines fitted and thus equipped she did good service for. sev- eral years.
 The next owner of the boat was Blakeley Hall. He had her in commits sion for only short time. although she was in his possession for several years. ,z Last summer ten bachelor members of the New York facht club secured possession of the craft and made sort of houseboat of her for. short cruises along the coast.
 Such is the history of the Hide. garde. the boat which began her career with the royal colors flying from her masthead, and which has had varied and changeable experience since then, until now she has been purchased by Frank R. Long. wealthy bridge build- CT, and Jacob l.. Swayze, of Hacken- sack.
 . Her new owners have had her hauled up the river to Little Ferry, where the dismantling and remodelline is now underway. In overhauling her it is found that she is as staunch a craft as the day she was launched, and as she has lots of room for the storing Of cargo she will make a good trader. But there is something pathetic in such an inglorious ending to career which began so auspiciously 3i years ago. What descent, Once the pride of a prince. now the enforced servant of tradesman. Once grseed by the pres ence of fair women and men of noble birth. now the carrier of common freight. But may there not be this comforting thought to the old yacht as she begins the new chapter in her eventful career: Once given to the lighter. more frivolous things of life she has now become really useful. and after all there is nothing so really sat isfying and uplifting as to realize that one is of some substantial service ip this busy. vork.a-day world.

In Memory

OF Miss Prudie Ford, who departed
this life March 81 at Hartford by
committing suicide. She was born
in the year 1884, was twenty-one
years, two months and twenty one
days old.
She professed faith in Christ Sep
TENDER 4, 1898, and Joined Cane
Run Baptist church and was bap-
tized. She devoted eight years of
her life to the cause of Christ and
was a true and a faithful member.
She has left a place vacant IN the
church which cannot be filled. She
was the Sunday school secretary and
one of the alto singers in the choir.
We extend our heartfelt sympa-
thy to the bereaved family. We
also extend many thanks to the citi-
zens Of Hartford for the kindness
they have shown to her family. We
hope to meet Prudie in the sweet
beyond where sorrow never comes
and parting will be no more.
A FRIEND.

Here and in Engla nd.

Free-Traders in this country defy
ing the business depression which ex-
listed when we had a Democratic
Tariff with its free raw material
provision from 1893 to 1897, rehearse
the old. old story that the Tariff
is tax on the consumer.
They forget that the Tariff tax is
paid in no small degree by foreign
sales to this country below the for
eign price just as the Steel Trust
sells cheaper in England than in Am
erica. They forget that domestic
competition is so keen that except
when trust conspiracies arise as they
arise in Free-Trade countries as well
as in Procectionist countries the AM
erican consumer gets cheap wealth.
For example, when we were forced
to buy all our tin plate abroad we
were at the mercy of foreign trust
in Free-Trade country.
We put duty on foreign tin
plate and within a remarkably short
time American tin place works
were competing with one another
and giving US our tin plate at far
lower prices than had previously
been maintained.
Now when trust conspiracies en-
ter the field and artificially boost the
price of any article whether in Eng
land or in America we of the United
States can remedy conspiracy not by
degrading the standard of Ameri-
can wages as we did under the last
Democratic Tariff but by taking the
Roosevelt clue of enforcing the law
against trust conspiracy.
To give force to this argument let
it be noted that American labor was
never so prosperous as to-day, that
the only danger to our industries
lies in conspiracies such as those of
life insurance, wholly detached from
the Tariff issue, and other trusts
where the franchise is prevented.
To-day there is crisis in Free-Trade

The Civil Service, as now handed
out at Washington, is very elastic.
If the "scalps" of some officers are
desired, a mere infraction of the
rules which would require a power
full telescope to discover, is enough
to satisfy the Commission. On the
other hand, it has been noticed that
when certain worthless are to be con-
tinued in office, the telescope is re-
versed and they remain, although
they may have chopped up the Civil
Service rules with a meat axe, and
waded through them up to their
armpits. The Commission seems to
be willing to accommodate its find
ings to suit the various Depart
mentS.

DELEGATES from various counties
will meet at Greenville to-day, un-
der call of the National President, to
organize State Union of the Amer
lean Society of Equity. This is a
step in the right direction. Only by
united effort and the most compact
organization can the farmer hope to
win in this great conflict with the
trusts which have been years in per-
fecting their plans of organization.
We are glad to see that the name of
Ohio county's President is to be pre-
sented for President of the propos-
ed State organizatin. No better
man could be selected. He has been
faithful to his trust. AS the head of
the organization in this county, he
has labored necessarily and with
great ability to make it a success.
We hope the first State organization
will select for its first President

To THE REPUBLICAN and Kentucky
friends.
Just one month ago to-day wife
and | left our old Kentucky home
and started for what used to bt
known as mo mans land" but now
Beaver County, o. T. On March
End, we arrived at Hooker our r
r. town. At first we didn't know
whether we would be able to stay
on the ground or not, the wind was
blowing so hard. After we had got
ten to hotel we learned that the
sand storm flor such it was) had
been ranging for three days and
nights. but the next morning the real
estate was not changing hands SO
fast. We remained at Hooker three
days in order to rest from our jour
ney and then started for our future
home 80 miles west from Hooker.
We arrived at DR.. fuckers an ex-
Kentuckian about 4 o'clock that
afternoon.
This is certainly a fine country.
The land is level and appears to be
very fertile, but of course the fertility
has to be tested yet. Twelve mouths
ago there was not a house closer than
8! miles to where | am now; but
now there is a house of some kind
on almost every quarter section as
far as the eye can reach.
In what is known as Kentucky
colony twenty-five Kentuckians have
land and are striving to
build our future homes. Already
two sweet little babies have come to
brighten the homes of two of us.
1t seems strange to us sure not to
have churches and schools but these
things will follow later on. The
writer will preach tomorrow in a
dwelling and we hope in very short
time to be able to build house
where we can have church and Sab
bath school regularly.
was told before left Kentucky
that it never rained here, but last
Tuesday found me 30 miles from
wife and baby and it rained all day
long, so realized that it does rain
here sometimes.
To any one who is striving to get
a home themselves, Iwould say come
to Oklahoma Territory or at least
in the west. Here the
plowboy has no hills to climb and no
rocks or roots to contend with. The
air is pure and the water fine. We
are about 3,l00 feet above the sea
level. Of course we will miss the
cooling shade of the trees that we
were use to in old Kentucky for
there is not a tree nor Vegetation of
any kind except buffalo grass an inch
high. A. l.. M.
