Alexander Hamilton was one of the
most contemplate rakes we have
ever known in this country. His mill
tary service was not sufficient to war
rant the erection of a memorial to
him and his legislative service was
only in representing New York city
district in the legislature of his state,
which Is not sufficient for such dis
tinction. He advocated the election
of the president and the senate by
wealthy people Of the country and
upon failing to have his idea adopted
left the constitutional convention and
went home. AS secretary of the treas
ury he favored allowing the wealthy
people Of the country to control the
government"

A "THOU SHALT NOT STEAL"

There is hot time" promised in
the hereafter for Uncommon thief who
steals money, or property of any
kind; but the various authors OF
the good book were probably not
cognizant of that meanest of all
purloiners, the fellow who can't fill
his own paper with good, live
matter and steals from his exchanges
Cor, if he does not exchange takes
someone else's paper), never SC
much as mentioning the source from
which he got his copy"
One of the worst offenders in this
line of petty thievery is the Crooks.
ton Daily Times, of which J. P.
Dottson is the proprietor and
Thomas Brown, Jr., the managing
editor. The Pioneer has had occa.
sion to call the attention of the
public to this stealing on several
occasions of late; but the swiping'
goes merrily on.
The latest offense was committed
last Saturday, when the Times
people printed bodily from the
columns of the Pioneer a column
write-up of the opening of the hook
and-line fishing season. The writer
put in a good hours work looking
over the law supplements and ascer-
tanning just what laws had been
amended, and the same matter could
not possibly have been originally Sc
cured by the Times man, as the
article was verbatim the same as
that published in the Pioneer, except
that the Times scribe was compelled
to change the reference to Warden
Bailey being local man.
All good brethren of the press
should join in giving the Times a
real lively roasting" for the
piratical methods it pursues, as the
Pioneer is not the only paper that
has a grievance in this line against
the Crookston daily.

Disturbed Districts.
Adana, Asiatic Turkey, May s.
Adana is still lawless. More people
are being killed in the city. Theirs
are 10000 dead in Adana province as
a result Of the massacres and $4,000
homeless and penniless refugees are
wandering in the vilayet.
The deaths in Adana city alone aret
estimated at $500. ...s
Adana is terrorized by 1900 sol.
diers, who are looting, shooting and
burning. No respect is paid to for
eign properties. Both the French
schools have been destroyed and it is
feared that the same fate awaits the
American school. Commercial and
missionary interests in Adana are
totally ruined. ..-
The new vail has not as yet in
spired confidence. There is reason to
believe that the authorities still in.
tend to permit the determination of
all Christians. The troops here are
making a pretense of throwing eva
ter on the flames; instead of water
they use kerosene and are thus pur-
posely adding to the conflagration.
Apprehension is felt here regarding
the American missionary stations at
Hadiin and Tarsus.
All letters and kilograms sent out
through Turkish channels are cen
scred.

AWFUL ATROCITIES RELATED
Details of Slaughter of Armenians
Around Tarsus.

Tarsus, Asiatic Turkey, April "a,
via Constantinople, May 5.-Authentic
details of the atrocities committed by
the fanatical Mohammedans in the
villages and farms in this district are
now coming into Tarsus with sicken-
ing abundance. The worst particu-
lars of these narratives cannot be
mentioned, but they set forth without
doubt that at least 10000 persons lost
their lives in this province and some
estimates place the total casualties at
$4,000. Villages like Osmanich, Baz-
sche, Hamadieh, Kara, Kristian, Keoy
and Kezolook were actually wiped out.
Each of these places had populations
of from 500 to 600 people. In one
town of 1000 people there are fewer
than 100 left, nearly all women and
children. 1t was the same thing with
the hundreds of chiftlikes, or farms,
that dot this wide and fertile plain.
The slaughter was unsparing, even
Greeks and Syrians being struck
down with the Armenians. Entire
families were burned to death in their
homes. Hundreds OF girls and WO-
men we're maltreated and carried off
to the harems.
The correspondent was informed
that at one place party of 100 Ar
menians surrendered to the soldiers.
The prisoners were taken to an open
field, where the women were ordered
10 stand apart from the men. Every
one of the men was then shot, In
many cases they were done to death
with their women clinging to them,
trying to save their lives.
Young Turks around Tars1?s are
trading Armenian girls for horses and
modern repeating rifles. The entire
ten days seem to have been an insen-
safe orgy of lust and violence in the
name of race and religion.
