FRIDAY, MARCH 22, 1901.

THE editor ol the lin-iav is urging a lot located near 'his home as the proper site for the Carnegie library. How sweet of him!

WHEN a man goes to Darlington nowadays and facetiously remarks "I'm from Missouri," his auditor? yell with horror and take to the bushes.

IN the expression of opinion about town on the verdict in the McConnell case there is some difference as to the sanity of the man. There is a perfect unanimity, however, on the eminent propriety of locking the gentleman up.

THE mortality among the distinguished men of Indiana since January first has been something startling and woeful. Mount, Fishback, Thompson, Harrison thes'e were men, indeed, whose loss would be great for any state or country.

GOLD in the United States treasury continues to increase at the rate of more than five million a month, and that ratio of increase is likely to continue until July 1, when the^revenue reduction law will goiinto effect. -That law reduced the revenue about $40,000,000 a year. Treasurer Roberts thinks that will stop the increase of gold in the treasury, but does not expect it to reduce the total, which now amounts to 282,913,022, and will probably succeed half a billion of dollars by the first of July.

THE editor of the Noblesville Democrat, actuated doubtless ^by a fellow feeling, howls long and lustily because the editor of the Shelby ville Democrat is sent to prison for stealing $2,000 from Shelby county. The chief ground for protest seems to be that an Indianapo lis lawyer was paid $1,800 for securing the conviction. Still it was money well spent. Once in Montgomery county a notorious negro was sent to the penitentiary for stealing eleven cents worth of coal. It cost about a hundred dollars to convict him but no one protested. The fellow had been a thief for years and the public was glad of a chance to get rid of him when at last a case was secured. For many years George Ray has been a noted corruption^ and when tinally an opportunity to land him was presented, the people of his county did the right thing in sparing no expense to bring about this devoutly to be wished for consummation.

DK.MOCllATIO 1\A I IT A^SI) JLI.HKll'l'V, South Carolina is the most reliable Democratic state in the union and the Democratic party is indulging in a great deal of.yawping just at present in the name of liberty. The Republican party, which freed the slaves, is being denounced as the enemy of liberty and the congressmen and senators ^'rom South Carolina have been among the noisiest of the -critics. It is interesting to note |in this connection the slavery system that is still continued in that state, a system that is backed by the law, the whipping post, the bloodhound, and the ^shotgun. Ignorant negroes havej for some time past been made drunk andlthen induced to sign articles of slavery- which are rigidly enforced against them. To be sure the press of the north has exposed the system this winter but the abuse has not been abated. Just to illustrate the iniquity of the business we reproduce the "agreement" to which thousands of negroes have "made their mark'' and under the terms of which they are held to-day in[n unyielding slavery. It is as follows: "I agree at all times to be subject to the orders|and commands of said landlord or his agents. He shall have a right to use such force as he or his agents may deem necessary to require me to remain on his farm and perform good and satisfactory services. He shall have the right to lock me up for safe keeping. He snail have the right to work me under the rules and regulations of his farm. And if I should leave his farm or run away, he shall have the right to offer and pay a reward of not exceeding $25 for my capture and return, together with the expenses of same, which amount so advanced, together with any indebtedness I may owe at the expiration of above time, I agree to work out under all the rules and regulations of this contract at same wages as above."

Apolitical party that Btands for such a system should be the last to mention

liberty. Mr. Bryan, who has much to say concerning personal Ireedom among the savages in the Philippines, would do well to turn his attention to matters nearer home and to open up his pop gun batteries on his pet state of South Carolina—the first atate to fire on the American flag.

In Memory.

"Iiudded on c-artli to bloom in heaven." On March IS, 1001, the dark angel of death crept silently into the home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Long and called for Herman, their little son, aged two month and sixteen days. We know dear parents it was sad for you to give up your little darling whom you loved so well, but we will say, weep not, for your loss is heaven's gain. Little Herman was too sweet an angel to dwell on earth, hence the Lord called him to reign in heaven, where there will be no sickness nor death and where we will never say "'goodbye." Remember what our Savior said while here on earth. "Suffer the little children to come unto Me, and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of God," and that a band of little angels who never knew sin were with Jesus to welcome your little darling home. Parents, relatives and friends did all in their power to keep little Herman with them, but all their faithfulness proved futile. He will be greatly missed. The home has lost its sweetest flower. Little Herman is at rest where he will suffer no, more, and is now waiting at the beautiful pearly gate to welcome the coming of his parents. Parents, may you be submissive to this bereavement. The angels of the Lord encompass round about your child, and your Heavenly Father in His goodness, transplanted the beautiful bud into the land of unfading flowers. As little Herman swept in he caught up the sweet strain of "Hallelujah to the Lamb" forever and forever.

Another little lamb has gone To dwell with Him who gave Another little darling babe.

Is sheltered in the grave. God needed one more angel child Amidst his shining baud, And so He bent with loving smiles.

And clasped our darling's hand. lite. C:1'- A FRIEND.

The Mount Memorial.

Lafayette Call: The members of the agricultural society of Purdue university last evening held a memorial service for the late Hon James A. Mount, who died soon after vacating his office as governor of the state of Indiana. Ex-Governor Mount was one of the warmest friends that Purdue university had in the whole state. He was largely interested in the institution in an agricultural way, as that was his occupation in life. His friendship for the institution was manifested in many ways, and it was fitting that a service should be held to commemorate the many excellent things that were a part of his life and character. The exercises were held in the Y. M. C. A. room at the experiment station and opened at 8 o'clock. Despite the very disagreeable weather, the crowd was as large as could be accommodated in the quarters selected. Present as guests of honor, and in response to invitations issued l:y the society, were Rev. Harry N. Mount, of Connersville, son of the dead exgovernor, and Charles E. Butler, of Shannondale, son-in-law of ex-Govern-or Mount. Mr. Butler is now occupying the Mount homestead in Montgomery county. The presence of these gentlemen gave an importance to the occasion that was greatly appreciated by tlio members of the society.
