FRIDAY, MAY 3, 1901.
IT is not unlikely that the tariff will be revised by the next congress but those who expect a return to the suicidal Democratic policy of free trade are greatly in error. Even a tariff for revenue only would mean in this day a tolerably high tariff because "for revenue only" has become a pretty figure in the United States. It is safe to say that the protective system, with some alterations to meet changed conditions, will be continued. And it should be.
MONDAY
IT is stated that a movement is on foot in the west end of town to fight the contemplated public improvements. If this is true the obstructionists are making a sad mistake both as concerns the welfare of Crawfordsville and themselves. They are but delaying what must eventually come and what really should have come several years ago. While Crawfordsville is ahead of her neighbors in many things she is woefully and notoriously behind them in street improvements. We must catch up and now when times are easy is the opportunity. The people of the west end should consider the matter from the standpoint of the general welfare. A temporary inconvenince is frequently an after profit and so we believe it will prove in this case.
NEW YORK Tribune-. When Aguinaldo was captured Agoncillo promptly announced that Sandico would succeed him, and thus, "Freedom's battle, once begun, bequeathed from"—well, if we were minded to nickname the objects of disfavor as some of our urbane and dignified friends do, we might say "from Aggie to Sandy." And then there hobbled up the awful disillusioner that Sandico had surrendered before Aguinaldo was captured. Since then Tagai hopes, chiefly in this country, have centered upon Alejandrino as the successor of Aguinaldo. But now that doughty insurgent surrenders unconditionally. Keally, it begins to look as though Messrs. Atkinson, Winslow, Garrison and Crosby will have to draw straws to decide which of them shall take the place of the "lost leader." In the parlance of the day, "it is up to them."
THE Louisville Times sourly remarks: The hearty greetings extended to President McKinley through Alabama and Mississippi yesterday "testified," according to the Associated Press, "how completely he had captured the hearts of the people of Dixie." But there is no testimony to show that along with the hearts the President has captured the votes of the people of Dixie. It's votes the politician wants, not hearts, except as the hearts carry the votes.
The statement of the Times does not bear the test of consideration. The vote is the thing that President McKinley no longer needs. He is past the stage of candidacy and it is a commendation of his modesty that he refrained from trip making until such a time when his motives could not be misconstrued. He is not wooing the •ote of the south but as President of the United States is visiting the southera people in the hope of further eliminating sectional difference and misunderstanding. His tour will have a wonderful tendency to bring the north and the south nearer together.

was a shocking day for the
Garrison-Winslow-Atkinson gang of humble-puppies. The Harvard overseers that day unanimously reached an informal decision to confer the degree of Doctor of Laws upon President McKinley. A special dispatch to the New York Evening Post announcing that fact said, "some of the overseers think that undue importance has been attached to the petition in opposition." It was rough on the Filipino lovers to ignore their absurd petition, but to designate them personally as of no consequence seems to be rubbing it in.
THE Brown county whitecaps, although proved guilty by the evidence, were promptly cleared Wednesday by the jury. There is lingering suspicion that possibly some of the jurors belonged to the organization. If the peo-. pie of Brown county who want to suppress the bad would give up whitecapping and organize horse thief detective associations the same end could be legally attained that they now Beek to attain Illegally. Two wrongs do not make a right, and attempting to establish law and order by lawlessness and disorder is a very poor policy.

Among tnose from Waveland in attendance at the funeral of George Seybold was Tyre L. Hanna, Aaron Wolf, Wm. Deitrich and Mr. Gormley.
J. C. Hunt was in Crawfordsville Monday and improved the time by buying a car load of hogs of Charley Rountree and shipping them to Chicago.
The surviving partners of the Seybold hardware company, Butler and Peterson, have opened up the store and the business will be carried on as usual.
A1 Sifrlt was not the horse thief, but Art Franklin says he looked awfully like him, and he is not sure but he would be if the chance offered, and he says in his congratulations to him he had a notion to tell him so.
Those from a distance called here by the death of George Seybold were: Jasper Seybold, of Coaning, Iowa Lasson Seybold, of Illinois Rev. W. B. Slutz, of Connersville, Ind. Mr. and Mrs. Quincy Peterson, of Dayton, Ohio Clifford Peterson, of Indianapolis.
Arrangements are now complete for the Memorial Day on Sunday, May 26. Rev. A. S. Buchanon will preach the Memorial sermon in the mornine at the Presbyterian church. M. D. White, of Crawfordsville, will deliver the Memorial Day address on the 30th.
Rev. Sweeney, of Columbus, Ind., gave his lecture, "The Gold Age," Wednesday evening. Thif was the last of the course, and as is the custom the best was reserved for the last. Mr. Sweeney is an easy and fluent speaker with flights of oratory intermingled with side spliting anecdotes, so that his audience is ready at all times to receive his many hits on the human family, and none that heard him can be" but the better thereby, and the course was a success.
Samuel R. Johnesse and Sallie Cook were married at the home of D. V. Pitman Thursday evening of last week, Rev. J. S. Crowder officiating. The wedding occurring so soon after the death of the mother of the bride it was a very quiet affair. This marriage was the result of a correspondence sprung up some years ago, he being in the far west at the time, but during last summer he came to see her and this is the result of that visit. While we congratulate Mr. Johnesse on his choice,Sugar Creek township loses one of its best young ladies and Idaho will gain a most estimable young lady as a resident, as they will make their future home in that state where Mr. Johnesse is extensively engaged in mining.
Our people are so accustomed to the unexpected happening that we are at all times on the lookout, yet when the news of the death of George Seybold spread over town it created a feeling of awe and alarm never before felt. Only a very few of his most intimate friends ever thought of anything of the kind, and they had "but a very remote idea that some time in the far-off future he might become a charge to his friends. Yet all were totally unprepared for the tragedy when it came, and Darlington was shocked as never before. He was a man in the prime of life, a successful business man not only«a church member but a church worker, a devoted Sunday school worker, surrounded by a pleasant -and happy family, a devoted and loving wife, with all the necessities and ma,ny of the luxuries of life, a beautiful home and almost everybody his friend. In fact, to us it looked like he had everything to live for, but little do we know of the workings of the inner man, and to-day we are fully satisfied that on that fatal Sunday morning George Seybold was an insane man. His funeral took place Tuesday at 1 p. m., conducted by Rev. A. S. Buchanan at the home. The burial services were conducted by the K. of P., of which he was a member. There were one hundred and twenty in line. The famijy .have the sympathy of the entire community in this their great sorrow and bereavement. They have lost a kind husband and father, the towu one of its most enterprising citizens, the church and Sunday school a devoted and earnest worker. Yet let us all hope while we may not understand, that all his ways are just.

BE WON'T STUD IT
Uncle Sam Is Mighty Particular About Who Orders His Boys.
NO FOREIGN ORDERS GO
It the Legation Guards at Pekin Are to He Subjected to a Foreigner M. TJiey Will Come Home.
Tlie Proud Old American Bird Will Continue to Look Out For Itselt.
Washington, May 2.—The legation guard at the American legation at Pekin will not be subjected to the orders of any foreign general. Official reports of the latest phases of the negotiations at Pekin, as told in press dispatches, have not reached Washington, aud it is suggested as a possibility that the demands in this regard of the International generals are not unqualified. Still, If it is, the American legation guard will retain its independence even if it necessary to that end to remove it from Pekin and from China. The latter course might become necessary In case one of the powers formally declares war upon China and exercises its rights to cause the withdrawal of all neutral forces, but under existing conditions the guard probably will remain.
Germany was one of the powers that subscribed heartily to the suggestion of the United States that no nation make private arrangements with China for the enlargement or acquisition of concessions, so the officials here are surprised to learn that the Germans have taken steps to acquire a concession at Canton. It Is believed here that It was without doubt the insistence by the United States upon the force of this agreement that checkmated Russia's designs upon Manchuria for the time, being.
MILITARY PLANS
Troops Will Be Required In China For Some Time. Pekin, May 2.—Field Marshal Von Waldersee, in the letter which he sent to thr- ministers as the reply of the generals to the views of the ministers regarding the military questions discussed by the general in conference, says a garrison of 6,000 men should be left at Tien Tsin and the adjoining district, Great Britain, France, Germany aud Japan to contribute 1,400 men each, and Italy to contribute 400 men. As long as any forces occupy Chinese territory, -te foreign military commanders must exercise the full authority of a civil administration, according- to the principle established at The Hague in 1S99. The Chinese may remain in office as in the case of Pao-Ting-Fu, and partly at Tien Tsin. Besides the 0,000 men in the Tien Tsin district, warships, which must always be in the Pci-irlo, will preserve communication with the international fleet at TaUu.
To allow this administration to depend in any respect on the mandarins would be an utter impossibility. Friction would arise immediately, which would lead to conflicts, which will be better avoided. The placing of the civil administration under the military has "a further great advantage. It would be inconvenient to the Chinese government, which would, therefore, endeavor to get rid of it speedily by the settlement of peace conditions.
The creation of a chief command is desirable for purely military reasons, as in cases of disorder or troubles of any kind military measures will be required. These measures must* take place where these troubles occur, and the authqrity of the commander-in-chief must also extend to the legation guards at Pekin.
The question of evacuation is most difficult, owing to the approaching hot Beason, which is very injurious to the health of the troops, and whi.ch also will increase the war indemnity immensely, result in the loss of hundreds of soldiers, and probably mean the retention of the troops for the winter. The generals wore unanimously of the opinion that the question could be more speedily solved if the ministers would tueat separately regarding the amount of indemnity and the method of raising it. The second part of this question must take many months before a solution can be found. If the question of indemnity is considered first and China expresses her willingness and ability to pay, the moment will have arrived to begin the evacuation, the execution of which will require several months, so the reduction will be gradual.
A Bloody Battle.
Pekin, May 2.—A bloody batle has occurred between the Russians and the Chinese troops near Muckden in which the Russians lost 60. killed and many wounded. Among the Russian slain were four officers.
Fireman's Fearful Fall.
Helena, Mont., May 2.—A Great Northern express train was wrecked two miles west of Fort Benton yesterday. The engine, tender, baggage and mail cars were ditched and Engineer John Wilkinson was killed. The fireman was thrown 150 feet down an embankment, but received only slight injuries.

Indianapolis, May 2.—Mrs. May Wright Sewall, a member of the Women's International Peace and Arbitration committee of the United States, has issued an appeal to the clergymen throughout the country to explain to tho meetings to be held May IS the results of the peace conference of ISO!) and the court of ar-

bitration as it has Keen formed. Mrs. Sewall has also sent out an address to be read and voted on at the meetings. A part of it follows: "We unite in the expression of our conviction that nations, which are but aggregations of individuals, should be held to morality at least as exalted as that which was demanded of individuals under the highest existent forms of civilization. The court of common justice in which differences are arbitral ml li.v law and reason, has succeeded to the duel as the approved method of settling individual controversies. We believe this fact to be a pledge that uations also may be brought to settle, under corresponding laws of justice and reason, sectional and international controversies. "We pledge ourselves to give support to the principles enunciated in the conventions passed by the conference of The Hague to sustain the court of international arbitration to endeavor to augment puulic respect for it and to aid in so modifying conditions that the range of its influence and the application of the principles in behalf in which it .convenes may be extended."

According to the evidence £116,000 was obtained from various banks on ore worth £7,000.
St. Paul Warming Up.
St. Paul, May 2.—All heat1 records for May during the last 30 years were broken yesterday. Unofficial thermometers registered as high as 92 degrees in the shi le, while the government instrument, many feet above the streets, readied 90.
THE RAINBOW CITY
Fan-American Exposition Start* Out I'ncler ISxoolient Auspices. Buffalo. May 2. The beautiful electrical display last night was the culminating event of the opening day of the I'au-.Vmerican exposition. The attendance during the foreuoon was small, owing to the threatening weather. which kept away many from nearby towns. Later in the day, when the sun broke through the gray clouds, the crowd began to assume the proportions of an exposition throng, and last night thousands passed through the turnstiles.
The gates were opened without ceremony, the opening day ceremonies having been postponed until the 20th, when they will be combined with dedication day exercises. The change in the date, however, did not cause a moment's relaxation of the strenuous efforts being put forth by everyone connected with tins exposition to havtf everything as nearly ready as possible for yesterday's opening. The appearance of the buildings and grounds bore ample evidence of their efforts.
Storms, aud tlie inevitable delays Incident to any undertaking of this magnitude, made impossible the realization of the hope that this might be the first of the great expositions to be completed
011
its opening day. But so
much more already has been wrought than was deemed possible at the inception of the project that all are satisfied with the extent and beauty of the fair as it .appeared today, carried through from the beginning by the citizens of Buffalo.
May Day In Berlin.
Berlin, May 2.—May Day passed off quietly, 385,000 persons attending the various socialist and trades unions meetings, aud at all of these resolu-. tions were .adopted in favor of the 8-hour day and the right of union. In consequence of threats of the master builders to lock out all those workmen who celebrated May Day, work in tne building trades went on, although many men were absent. Seventy-four meetings all told were held in this city, the speakers all dwelling upon "The day we celebratt." Kt processions were allowed.
