FRIDAY, AUGUST 16, 1901.

WIRELESS telegraphers talk of sending messages between San Francisco and Honolulu. That test would be re ceived by the world as conclusive.

AN American ship passing through the Suez canal tendered American gold in payment of lolls, but it was refused. Only 9 per cent, of our foreign commerce is carried by American ships. Our (lag is a stranger in many parts of the world.

POSSIBLY the partial failure of the corn crop in Montgomery county will be compensated for to a considerable degree by the fancy price which that which is produced will bring. At least let us look on the bright side until we bump against the dark side.

SIR WILLIAM MACCORMAC. president of the Royal College of Surgeons in England, one of the highest of living authorities on gunshot wounds, says that in present conditions only about 6 per cent, of the men hurt in battle die from their injuries. This is the clearest proof of the wonderful advance made in antiseptic surgery in recent years, and is gratifying in its alleviation of the worst horrors of war.

SENATOR JAMES K. JONES, of Arkansas, the chairman of the Democratic national committee, strikes a note of sound political wisdom when he suggests, as he is reported to be doing to western Democratic politicians, that perhaps the best Presidential nominee for 1904 would be "a discreet jurist or hitherto obscure business man." The Democratic party has evidently had enough of Presidential candidates of the Boy Orator type.

UNDER a decision of the comptroller of the treasury, Secretary Wilson can use in his discretion, an appropriation of 820.000 in the agricultural bill for the current fiscal year, to pay what will in effect be an export bounty on American fruits, in his efforts to build up a foreign market for our fruits. The money will be carefully spent on a plan that is yet to be perfected, and will, it is believed, demonstrate that a large and profitable export trade in American fruits can be built up with a little intelligent effort.

HON. WILLIAM E. CHANDLER'S protest to the navy department against the personal attack made upon him and his administration of the navy department by Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans, in his recently published oook, resulted in the writing and publication of a letter of censure to Evans by Acting Secretary Hackett. Evans was doubtless elad to get out of the scrape so easily, but it is understood that all Mr. Chandler wishes was to have the navy department placed on record as opposing the right of any naval officer to publicly criticize the official acts of the secretary of the navy, either while he is in office or afterwards. This he has done.

TRUCK PATCHES I E UOCKY MOUNTAINS.

Twenty-five years ago one would have been thought quite beside himself had he predicted that the Rocky Mountain regions of this country would some day become a truck patch for the nation. But just now such a prediction would not be deemed unreasonable. To day Idaho and Colorado are shipping vegetables to St. Louis and Chicago is drawing supplies of vegetables from Rocky Mountain truck patches. There are millions of acres of the richest and best truck patch land in the valleys and caves of the Rockies, and this land is fast growing in importance.as methods are found for irrigating it. The present dry season has greatly emphasized the demand for irrigation, and no doubt now exists, that the Rocky Mountain regions possess more advantages for irrigation than any other part of the United States. The melting snows of midsummer send floods of water down into the valleys, and all that is needed is some available method of storing the water away in reservoirs till it is needed on the growing crops. And means for doing this are continually being augmented. There is no other land in the world that surpasses the Rocky Mountain valleys in richness and durability. Where irrigation is practiced three hundred bushels of potatoes per acre is no uncommon yield, and such crops follow along from year to year. They are never injured by droughts. These considerations are bound to attract both population and

capital to western mountains, and in time, make them the garden for supplying all our large cities with vegetables and fruits. It i9 estimated by govern ment engineers that there are in the Rocky Mountain region nearly 100,000,000 acres susceptible of irrigation, more than one acre per capita of the whole population of the United States.

THE Ncics-lievicw publishes a long lie from that trebly perjured scoundrel, Bob Noakes, in which Noakes indulges in some fancy pipe dreaming at the expense of the defendants in the Goebel case. Noakes is on the market. Having secured all the money he could from the corruption fund of the prosecution Noakes endeavored to blackmail the defense, but failed. He has now returned to his first love—doubtless for consideration. The fellow is illiterate, ignorant, and a grand rascal, and when the Xews-Jicvievi holds him up as a leader of men and the organizer of the militiamen who went to Frankfort prior to the killing of Goebel, it simply makes itself absurd. All that Noakes had to do with that assemblage was in the capacity of conductor of a little jerk water train on the L. & N. that took a couple of companies from the mountains part of the way to the state capital.

Henry Marshall For Speaker.

Lafayette Times'. Henry W. Marshall for speaker of the house of representatives in Indiana's sixty-third regular session of the general assembly. There is a movement on foot to accomplish this re&ult and though the managers are not quite ready to launch the boom, the Sunday limes has private information that it is the intention to place Mr. Marshall in the chair recently occupied by Samuel Artman.

Mr. Marshall, will not stand as the candidate of the agricultural classes, and though he is known to be friendly to the corporations, he will not bind himself body and soul to carry out the plans and schemes of the trusts. They are willing to take Mr. Marshall as he is, will require no pledges from him.

The plan to make Mr. Marshall speaker has been discussed informally for several months in Indianapolis, and, in fact, there have been several conferences held in Peru with James Stutesman regarding the matter. Mr. Stutesman has given his word to Mr. Marshall that he will not stand in the way of his election, and will do all in his power to make him the successful candidate.

Mr. Marshall and Mr. Stutesman are close personal friends, and Mr. Marshall was one of the Peru statesman's most ardent supporters in the latter's unsuccessful race for speaker at the beginning of the last session.

The Marshall political headquarters will be in Indianapolis, and Mr. Marshall refuses to discuss any questions other than street paving while in this city. He was seen by a representative of the Sunday Times last week and asked concerning the speakership matter, but he simply smiled. and in that bland Marshallesque manner, denied all knowledge of the subject. He was told that his Indianapolis friends had been doing some talking, but he professed that he could not be held responsible for what they said.

A Company Reunion.

Company C, of the SGth Indiana Volunteers held a reunion at Osborne Prairie church Saturday. August 10. Those present of the company were: Oliver Boord, Covington M. B. Briney, Rob Roy: Harrison Millard, Attica Wolf Ilirsch, Chicago: Zimmerman, Carbondale: Jerry Hall, Fountain: Sam Cowe. Veedersburg: Amos Santman, Stone Bluff John Bethel, Riverside Geo. Warrick, Hillsboro: H. Moorehouse, Veedersburg: Ed McLean, Stone Bluff: Braze Coffing.

Three members of Company were also there, J. McNettle, F. McCoughtry and C. Gibson. W. C. Stewart, of THE CRA WFORDSVILLE JOURNAL, was present and sold a few copies of the regimental history.

Death of Uncle Nick Thompson. Nicholas Thompson, aged eighty four years, died of dropsy Sunday at his home three miles west of town on the Yountsvllle road. He had been ill for about three months and his death was not unexpected. He leaves a wife and a number of grown children. He had lived most of his life in this and Fountain counties and was a well known character. The funeral occurred at the home Tuesday morning at nine o'clock.

Careless Mr. Skaggs.

Mrs. Elizabeth Skaggs has filed suit against her husband, Charles Skaggs, for support. She alleges that although he has money he will not put up a cent to support his family and she proposes to see what the law can do with him. The amiable Mr. Skaggs is probably just a little careless and when his memory is jogged by an order from the court he will no doubt do the right thing by his family.

Summer Complaint.

If the stomach and bowels are free from gaseous and sour fluid accumulations and the habits regular, your children will go through the heated term without sickness. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin corrects all such troubles by removing the obscure caute and keeps the system in perfect working order. Nye & Booe, druggists.

Death of Mrs. Isaac Montgomery. Mrs. Elizabeth Parks Montgomery, wife of Isaac Montgomery, died last Monday at three o'clock at the family home near Linden. The funeral took place at the home Tuesday afternoon at half past one o'clock, the interment occuring at Oak Hill at four o'clock. Mrs. Montgomery was eightyfour years of age and her father, Mr. Parks, was one of the earliest settlers of this county, living near Linden She was married to Mr. Montgomery sixtyfive years ago and he survives her, now being eighty-eight years old.

Mrs. Montgomery had lived all her married life on the same farm and was a woman of remarkably strong character and fine instincts. She was a member of the Methodist church from her early youth and in her work of the denomination made herself felt for the good. In the community where her life was passed her death was deeply deplored.

A Painful Accident.

Last Monday while freezing ice cream, Charley Tevebaugh met with a very painful accident. He wished to brush the ico from the top of a freezer and instead of using the whisk broom usually employed used his gloved hand. The glove on his left hand was caught in some way in the cogs and instantly his fingers began to be drawn into the machinery. With remarkable presence of mind he seized his left hand with his right and pulled with all his might, freeing himself with the greatest difficulty. His two middle fingers on his left hand were awfully crushed but the doctor does not despair entirely of saving them. The thumb of his right hand was also caught and painfully though not seriously injured.

A Changed Place.

The work on the circuit court room is being pushed rapidly and when the lawyers assemble at. the opening of court they will not recognize the place. The new skylight will not only ventilate the room but will furish some greatly needed light, while the new paper will give a tone to the place which may have the happy effect of scaring away the customary loafers.

Kicked By a Horse.

Carl, the eight-year-old son of Silas Long, residing on Whitlock avenue, was kicked in the face by the family driving horse. His father was leading the animal and the boy followed behind, prodding the horse with a stick, which the old beast resented and showed his indignation by kicking and striking the boy in the face. His injuries are quite serious.

Matrimonial Misunderstand lugs.

I have known a fond couple to quarrel in the very honeymoon about cutting up a tart nay, I could name two who, after having had seven children, fell out and pax-ted over boiling a leg of mutton. It may seem strange to those who are not married when I tell you how the least trifle can strike a woman dumb for a week. But if you ever enter into this state you -will find that the gentle sex as often express anger by an obstinate silence as by an ungovernable clamor.

Enumeration of Voters.

State Auditor Hart announced Tuesday, that the enumeration of voters in the state, which is made every sixth year by township trustees, under the supervision of the auditor of state, is going forward slowly. The trustees make their returns of the voters to the county auditor, who tabulates them and forwards the result to the state auditor. Returns from about one-third of the counties have thus far been received by Auditor Hart. The trustees are allowed until Sept. 1 to finish this work. The enumeration of voters is made for the purpose of supplying data on which the legislature may base a reapportionment of the state by districts, congressional and legislative. The state is reapportioned every sixth year under the constitution. The legislature of 1903 will enact a new apportionment law, based on the figures now being gathered. Tliy returns show only a natural increase in population.
