FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 1902.

WASHINGTON dispatches say that Cuban reciprocity will not be accomplished at this session but that the President will depend upon the fall elections for an endorsement of his position, after which he expects favorable action by the senate on a reciprocity treaty. In his western trip this Bummer the President will emphasize the duty of the country to stand by its promise to Cuba.

INDICATIONS are that the omnibus statehood bill eo inconsiderately passed by the house will be smothered to death in the senate. The bill richly deserves such a fate. Oklahoma is entitled to the lights of statehood but neither New Mexico nor Arizona are qualified for such responsibilities and there is no proBpect they soon will be. Unless irrigation works miracles the soil and climate of these two territories will prevent for an indefinite period the growth of a population equal to the duties which statehood entails.

IN failing to endorse the Kansas City platform in their declaration of faith the Democrats who controlled the recent state convention acted in distinct disregard of the repeated instructions and advice of William Jennings Bryan. It is no wonder that he utters the following protest through the Commonr:

The failure of the party to reaffirm the Kansas City platform shows that the men who controlled the convention were either not in harmony with the majority of the party or too timid to give voice to the convictions of the voters. The men who preferred a Republican victory to the Chicago or Ivansay City platform will never institute any reform or redress any grievance. They never fight an open battle. The victory which they gained in Indiana, 'in so far as they have gained one,' has been gained by stealth and because the rank and file were deceived. The struggle between human rights and mammon is as fierce to-day as it was in 1*96 and 1900. and no victory can be won by compromise.

The two wings of the Democratic party are no closer together than in ISiit) and 1900. In fact the Republican party is closer to either one of them than they are to each other. When water and oil are made to mix then look for Grover Cleveland and William Jennings Bryan to fall into each other's arms.

Thk U. S. civil service commission will hold examinations during September and October in several places in each state to secure young men and women for the government service. There are now 126,42. positions in the classified civil service, being an increase of 4(5,736 in six yaars. There were 7,972 persons appointed between July 1, 1901, and April Ifj, 1902, being at the rate of 10,070 for the year. There will probably be 11,000 appointments next year. Salaries at appointment vary from $660 to $1,200 a year with liberal promotions afterward. All appointments are for life and for most positions only a common school education is required. Politics or religion is not considered. Those deBiring to take examinations of this kind can get full information about them free by writing to the civil service commission, Wash ington, D. C. Under former Presidents appointing officers often evaded the civil service law and appointed their own friends or those ha ring political backing, but President Roosevelt makes its rigid enforcement a hobby.

He has dismissed several collectors of customs and internal revenue for violating this law and is striking terror to the spoilsmen everywhere. Of late absolute fairness prevails in making appointments.

Cool Weather a God-Send.

(Lafayette Sunday Times.)

William J. Jones, Jr., of the Purdue experiment station, believes that the cool weather of the last week was rather a God-send. After the recent heavy rains if the sun had come out hot and strong, Mr. Jones says, much of the corn crop would have been literally scalded. As it is now he thinks that but little damage has been done. He says, however, that we want warm weather from this time on

William F. Hampton TVES born April 10, 1834, and died June 20, 1902. He has suffered for years with catarrh of the stomaoh and death came as a welcome relief. He united with the Christian church at Indian Creek when a young man and lived a devoted Christian life. His last words in the hour of death were such as prove to us that his life was one of service to his Master. He leaves a wife, one son, a daughter and two grandchildren to mourn his loss. But the sorrowing ones should ever remember that their loss is his gain. It is hard to sever the tender cords of love and affection that have so strongly entwined themselves around the lives of husband and wife, but let us learn from these sad partings that "in the midst of life v/e are in death

We seem to hear the faintly murmured words "good bye." It is God's way His will, not mine, be done. So nestling close to his God he passed into the great beyond, skirted the dark shores of death for a time, then over the still cold waters to be at rest. Funeral services were conducted at the Christian church Sunday morning by Rev. Burton, interment at the Indian Creek cemetery.
