King Carlos of Portugal and the
Crown Prince Luis fell victims to a

The king and the crown prince fell

OF all the assassinations of crown
ed heads of recent years perhaps
the most dastardly was that of the
Empress Elizabeth of Austria at
Geneva on September 10, 1898. The
empress had lived a blameless life.
and had known more than her full
share of sorrows. She was famed for
her charities, and her love of travel

affection by those who came within
her influence. But as she was STAYING
at Geneva, and was walking quietly

thrown at the royal procession, and

1916 is probably derived from
Megiddo, an important Canaanite
fortress in lssachar (JoShua l2:21)
placed by most writer's at Legio west
of the plain of Esdraelon. The as
sociation Of Mcgiddo with the many
battles, @. x. the defeat Of the Canaan
ties by Barak, of the Gibeonites bv
indian, of Saul by the Phlistines. and
of Josiah by the Egyptians, probably
suggested it as the scene of the cul-
minating conflict between good and
evil referred to in the Apocalypse.

The Republican has been authorized
to make the announcement that Hon.
o. H. Jacobsen, of Kimballton, will be
a candidate for denomination on the Re-
publican ticket for Representative. He
has held this Office one term and was
the choice of his party at the primary.
It is customary to give man the second
term without opposition and Mr.. Jacob
sen is only asking the customary cour-
tesies. He will be a candidate before
the primaries next June subject to the
will Of his party.
Mr.. Jacobsen has filed the position
with honor and he believes that his
record in the last session of the legisla-
ture is sufficient guarantee that he
will continue to do the square thing as
he sees it. He may have made mistakes.
He is not at all unlike all other human
beings who are subject to mistakes and
errors. He asks the united support of
his party and assures each and every
one that his influence will at all times
be on the side of right and justice.

so far as it falls to the state to supply
or superintend the education OF the
people, the same questions arise as
in respect of the home; and it need
only be said that until the state
realizes that, in all education, develop
ment of character must come first,
it will never rise to the full height
of the occasion and bring forth that
fearless citizen, whom "thc worlds
wreck would crush undaunted," that
same man whom habit could never en-
slave. The duties of the state must
next be examined as they serve to
protect the people, and here no doubt
opinions will differ according as the
view ST taken, on the other hand, that
the state cannot be too paternal, on
the other, that having put away child
ish things, the grown up man mus,
be trusted to look after himself.
Wisdom, becried 'e4s~sether hand, will
steer very nicely a middle course be-
tween these extremes; allowing here
forbidding there. Thus it may be we'll
