"Esto ha sido discutido ampliamente en-

Para el fiscal es indiscutible la facultad

Esa question ha sido ampliamente discuti-

he knows when he has enough.
The tariff robbers have every

taking all the profit out of the
business. The tariff iniquity de-
serves to starve. Not only are all
the paper mills in the trust, but all

a trust.

Obituary..

Friday, October3, 1906, the death
angel visited the home of Charles
Raney and called forth the infant
daughter, who but one short year
was permitted to inhabit this
earthly garden, until Jesus in his
infinite wisdom saw fit to pluck
this bud of earth to bloom anew
in the celestial garden, where no
chilly frost can fall on flowers that
sweetly bloom. Could the in
visable veil be lifted we would see
little Verna safely folded in Jesus
arms with the same tender love as
of old, when he said, "Let the little
ones come unto me, and forbid
them not, for such is the kingdom
of heaven" How often during His
ministry on earth did He use the
child's life in teaching purity and
humbleness to His disciples and
in settling dispute among them
as who should be greatest in the
kingdom, called forth a child into
their midst as an object lesson, de-
claring the likeness of which only
could inherit the kingdom. st.
Mark 1915: "Verily, say unto
you whosoever shall not receive
the kingdom of God as a little child
he shall not enter therein" Weep
not dear loved ones for the life of
one SO precious, but submit to the
will of Him who doeth all things
we'll.
A song and prayer was offered
in the home by Rev. Cole, after
which the remains were laid to
rest in the Middlebrook cemetery
to await the glorious resurrection.
AS home TO our hearts we gather
The glowing in as much,
o, to be like the children
The kingdom is made Of such.
A FRIEND.

JAPAN NOW REACHING OUT.
Subsidies Steamship Lines to South
America to Obtain
Trade.

Consul Britain, of Kehl, Germany,
reports that according to a recent ar
ticle in Y German newspaper the JAP
anese government has recently grant,
ed subsidy to a Japanese-South
American steamship line, which plies
between Japan and Buenos Ayres, Ar
gentina. The object of this is to in
crease the imports of wool, -four and
wheat from Argentina, which products
are chiefly needed and desired fol-
Japan's army and marines. An Eng
lish newspaper also reports on SIM
lar matter and remarks:
''The scheme which has been under
consideration for some time for the
emigration of Japanese workmen to
Brazil and the creation for that pur-
pose of direct Japanese steamship
about to be realized Two special
commissioners of the Japanese gov
ernment are now examining on the
spot the proposal of establishing a
Japanese bank at Rio Janeiro."
The same English newspaper also
reports that "a syndicate of several
banks and commercial firms in Bremen
has, in connection with the shipping
firm Of Horn, Of Schleswig and Lu.
beck, formed new steamship com.
pany under the name of the Roland
line to carry on a direct service be-
tween Bremen and the west coast Of
South America. The formal constitu.
ton of the new company will take
place in the course Of this month"

Plueking the Trust Bird.

The Trust is an elusive bird and
is found nesting where least ex-
pected. If ardently hunted in one
section, it seeks cover in the more
secluded cover where mans habi-
tations are the tickest. The chief
known flock of trusts was sup
posed to be lowering over New
Jersey, but after a long and tire
some expedition of the adminis-
tration octopii hunters in that
region they were found to have
flown. The chief species of the
octopus, known as Standard Oil,
was followed to Kansas, but had
been flushed by the local hunters,
before the arrival of the trained
hunters of the department. of
justice. They tried Pennsylvania,
Ohio and other Republican States,
but were always just too late to
bag the game. The latest reports
locate the Standard Oil octopus in
England, right under the nose of
the American ambassador, who is
such good judge and so fond of
the Trust birds that he has bred
them himself in New York and
would not disturb them if he could.
Their breeding season over, they
have been found in great numbers
in Wall Street.
The close season for the Trust
birds is now on, and the only dis
turbance they will receive from the
administration hunters is to pluck
some of their golden feathers to
stuff the campaign contribution
box, and Chairman Cortelyou is
said to be diligently doing the
plucking. Before another politi-
cal campaign the administration
will again set it's hunters in mo-
ton, but the only real activity will
be when the plucking season COM
mences again.
