An nlustrious French prelate was at

many members of the French nobility
and many other ecelesiastics. The con
versation turned upon the lifelong ex-
perienee Of priests. their insight into
the depths Of human nature. and the
strange secrets Of which. in virtue Of
their Office. they must become the de-
positaries. To point his remarks, his
eminence said: For instance. gentle
men. the first confession 1 ever re-
ceived was that Of murderer At
that moment, and while expressions Of
wonder. interest and horror were stin
upon the lips Of his auditors. the door
opened and nobleman Of the highest
rank, man weII-known among them,

company, and then paid his respects TO
the prince Of the church, adding grace

Tor Introducing the bill he had dis.

that no such interpretations could $be
placed upon the measure. The bill pro-
WOES that the entryman may absent
himself during the months Of DeceIn-
Der January, February and March:
This would do away with the ridiculs
Gus rule that a homesteader should
reside upon the land when he ,nisht
be in the pine woods earning a few
dollars to put in his next years crop.
The bill would give especial relief
to homesteaders the first year. III
would enable the department to re.

general law during the softer, months
Of the year. 's ss;
The senator says he will press tha
bill again at the first opportunity, be-

THE REAL ISSUE,

The senatorial contest is now re-
ceiving very much attention at the
hands of the voters of the state, and
1t should, for there is no Office which
the people have to decide that is of
so great Importance as the selection
of our representatives in the U. S.
Senate.
In the selection of this officer the
main thing to be taken into considera-
ton is the qualifications which the
various candidates possess, and which
is the better fitted to give our state
the best representation We contend
that in the present contest Hon. H. c..
Hansbrough is by far the most deserv-
Ing and the better equipped of the
candidates for the position.
Tom Marshall has nothing to recon-
mend him for advancement, there has
been nothing of sufficient merit done

sToEssEL1s CONVICTION.

War has become the graveyard Of
military regulations, as well as OF the
thousands OF the rank and file who
are slain for what is alleged to be their
country's honor,
Witness the cause OF the late Boer
war In South Africa, in which 10 many
English generals lost. or came near
losing, their military fame in addi-
tlon to losing their men in disastrous
encounters with the enemy
The case Of General Stoessel, who has
been, until now, regarded as the hero
Of Port Arthur, is the latest example.
The dispatches announce that Lieut..
Gen. stoessel has been condemned TO
death by a military court for the SUR
render Of Port Arthur to the Japanese.
The court recommended, however. that
the death sentence against the General
be committed TO ten years imprison-
ment In fortress
The recommendation OF Stoessel real
ly leaves Russia IN worse condition
I'm the eyes of the world than she was
before. Amid all the positions held
by the Russian forces, Port Arthur
alone held out for long time. This
fact gave some glory to tho military
ability Of Russia. But IL there was
no real ability and bravery even there,
then Russia discovered only unsound-
ness nom beginning 10 end and from
top to bottom
II IS significant that measures had to
be- taken to prevent demonstration In
favor Of stoessel by "a number OF tho
younger officers and witnesses" who
had been In the Siege Of Port Arthur
Their testimony that stoessel was the
soul OF the defense OF Port Arthur;
that he had always encouraged and
put heart into the garrison ana that
IN case of war they would wish To
serve again under him, bears to as
something of the impress Of truth, Il

LEST WE FORGET"

In his famous Farewell Address
George washington. as Is well known,
speaks Of the causes which may dis
turb our tinion--a subject that cannot
be given too serious attention Mt THIS
time. one of these causes, he says.
IS the party spirit that would cut the
country UP In sections. He says;

which spring from these misrepresenta-
tfons they tend to render alien 70
each other those who ought to be
bound together by fraternal affection
But Washington warns not only
against purity division ON geographical
lines but party spirit generally. We
read again:
II have already intimated to you
the danger Of parties In the state, with
particular reference to the founding OF
them on geographical determinations.
Let me now take a more comprehen-
sive view, and warn you, In the most
solemn manner. against the banefui
eifects of the spirit OF party generally.
"This spirit. unfortunately, Is insep-
arabic from our nature, having It's root
In the strongest passions of the human
mind. It exists under different shapes.

cries which result, gradually incline the
minds of men 10 seek security ana

Individual; and sooner or later, the

"Without looking forward to an ex-

less, ought not to be entirely out OF

chiefs of the spirit OF party are sutii-

This solemn warning seems to be all
