leaves one in doubt as to where
he stands on any public question,
however dangerous it may be
from a political standpoint or
otherwise. To have a public
officer nowadays discuss matters
of great moment to the people
with entire freedom and candor,
unhesitatingly giving his own
opinions. is truly refreshing.
As was TO be expected, the
governor dwells at length on the
burning question Of the day, the

year 1900 the expenditures had

annual sums varying from $40,

year, however, he says, COndi-
lions we're reversed, the revenue
exceeding expenditures by some
thing like ~$125,O00.

his belief in the wisdom of the

Being the staunch friend that
he is Of the cause OF education,
Gov. Hayward takes a just pride
in the progress made the past
year IL thc states educational
work, from lie country schools
to the highest institutions Of
learning. He strongly urges
the Legislature to pass a compul-

The work of the department

AN ORGANIZATION OF BUSINESS
MEN SUGGESTED.

Lancaster needs a board OF
Srsde, chamber Of commerce or
some such organization of its
business men. AS il is now. if
one happens to have a good sug.
gestion for the advancement of
the towns interests, there is no
organized body to which he might
submit his ideas and plans, with
the view Of having them taken
up and put into execution. 1t is
true we have a town council, but
there are many matters calculat
ed to benefit the town which do
not come within the province of
the municipal authorities.
The business men of the com
immunity need an organization pri-
marily for their own protection
They can accomplish by united
action what they cannot possibly
do as individuals. If, for ex-
ample, discriminating freight
rates or railroad schedules should
be imposed upon Lancaster, the
matter could be taken up by tn,
towns business organization.
and upon a proper showing made
before the railroad authorities OF
ahe railroad commission, no doubt
have the rates reduced or SEIZED
u|es changed, when individual
appeals or complaints would
most likely prove altogether in
effective.

the embodiment of everything that was
good and pure and true.
Mrs Wichnan had the power OF
drawing people to her, and of making
them her friends. One could not come
into her presence without feeling her
genuineneSs and inherent purity of
character She had in an unusual de-
gree, that gift of sympathy which is
the secret of friendship. 1t was these
qualities of character which made her
influence in society such a power for
all that is good.
She was also a noble Christian
woman, prominently identified with
Central Union church, OF which she
and her husband We're beloved mem

No one who was admitted to her

by her beautiful Christian spirit her
loving thoughtfulness for others, and
her simple. chidlike trust. Though
often in great pain, she was cheer
full, patient and accomplishing. What
an inspira ton she was TO her husband
and children only those who were adj
mitted to the inner circle OF her home

of Sheriff of Oahu for denomination
There is not so large a Democratic
body in the aggregate that it can
thrive under much blood-letting of that
kind.
Certainly it is a most unkind thing,
when you come to consider it, for a
set of politicians TO fuse in public and
renig in private, which consideration
has tendency to give fusion schemes
a bad attack of ricketts, even before
they reach an age when they are able
to walk alone.
So, altogether. while the Republicans
are not happily situated, and while the
threatened domination of the promise
breakers causes a sickly smile to il
illuminate the faces OF the leaders
neither the Democrats nor the Home
Rulers can hope to profit much while
they are in the position of being I'M
able to trust each other.
And If Sam Johnson really begins
to do politics after the Lorrin An
dreWs methods, he may be able to
point the path to a measure of safety.
Anyway, he thinks he can.

NET DEATH IN THE FIRE.
Anthony Berry, . Cripple, Met Sad
and Painful Fate.

q
About ll:30 this morning fire broke
mt in the kitchen Of the Berry home
on South side. In the house alone
was Anthony Berry, q cripple, aged
about so years. He was unable to
help himself and had been so since
childhood and he was 80 severely
burned that he was unconscious when
found and died before he could be
taken out.
When the alarm was given W. H.
TeSters and q travelling man, a
stranger. we're first in the house.
The flames we're around Berry, some
six feet from the stove and near the
window. He was enveloped in the
blaze. The first corners put out the
FIRE which did little damage and car
ried Berry from the room. He was
dead when an examination was made.
II is possible that he deliberately set
the fire in order to end his life, or 1t
may have been an accident. The
facts will never be known probably.
Mr.. Berry's father and mother are
dead, sister, Kate, resides here and
brother, John, in North Dickinson.
Funeral services will be held tomor-
row.
