Come to think of it, the Boers seem to be lion hunting a bit themselves. Alger has gone, Gage may go, but Hanna sticks tighter than grim death. At last reports Lady Smith was still holding out against the advances of Oom Paul. Mr. Bryan’s welcome throughout the east, has been most cordial. The “enemy’s country” seems to have disappeared. The air line distance from Washington, D. C., to Manilla is 9,360 miles. McKinley, Hanna & Co., believe in expansion with a big “E.” , Two of the county commissioners of Shelby county have been indicted for corrupt and gross negligence as county commissioners and malfeasance in office. Specific charges are made. It is to be hoped that the censor is keeping recent events in Montana, Philadelphia, and Kentucky away from the knowledge of the Filipinos. It might prejudice th ;m against us. The Republicans are clamoring lor the cessation of the Philippine debate in the Senate. Naturally! Day after day, as it continues, it shows them more plainly that by a little more prudence the disastrous war over there might have been avoided. There is nothing like so much prejudice against the negro in the south, as in the north. He is given a fair chance in the south at everything except society and politics. But in the north, he is not even allowed to work except in menial occupations. The war for the conquest of the Philippine Islands is a bad thing, but perhaps something of that sort was necessary to awaken the consciences of Senator Hoar, Senator Hale and other leading republicans to an appreciation of the Declaration of Independence and the constitution of the United States. It is said that Congressman Crumpacker’s bill, by which it was intended to reduce the representation of the southern states under the plea that the votes of the colored citizens were surpassed, will not be pressed for passage. The republican leaders recognize the ‘ bad politics” of such a bill in a presidential year, so tis said, and the bill will be pigeon-holed.

Senator Hale shows an inclination to break with the administration, if it persists in itspro-British policy and continues to refuse to recieve representatives of the Transvaal. The South African republic is as independent a country as any in the world. Holland and most of the European countries have received agents from it. and the United States itself has accepted a consul. But the British object to our receiving a minister from there, and the junior members of the alliance must, of course, back up its senior member. The state fee and salary commission appointed by the last legislature to equalize the inequalities of the fee and salary bill agreed on Monday to recommend that the salaries of clerks, auditors, recorders, treasurers and sheriffs should be calculated on no other basis than the population and taxable valuation of the counties, provided all officers save the treasurer be allowed 10 per cent of fees collected, and the treasurer one tenth of 1 per cent of all taxes collected. The commission will also reccommend that all salaries be paid at the end of each quarter, ana all fees, including the percentages due for collection be paid into the county fund, and all per diem and extra allowances be cut

off. It will also recommend that the several funds of the clerk, auditor, recorder, treasurer and sheriff be abolished, and that all salaries and percentages be paid directly out of the county fund. The meeting at the national capitol last Sunday evening to express sympathy for the boers and condemnation for England was the greatest outpouring of Washingtonians that has occured in years. The big opera house was crowded to its fullest capacity and many members of congress, and senators were present and took part in the meeting, but it was a notable fact that no representative of the adminstration was present. Although invitations had been sent to officials high in authority, they staid away. Senator Mason of Illinois was one of the republican senators in attendance, and he prodded his party quite vigorously. When introduced by Chairman Sulzer * he said that he had no apology to make for coming to this meeting on Sunday night. “I hold,” he continued, “that there is no hour too sacred or place too dear to speak for the cause of liberty. I congragulate Washington, the capitol of the nation, on this sympathetic demonstration in behalf of a sister republic. “The conflict in the Transvaal is a struggle between liberty and slavery. When you hear these monarchists open their services with long prayers and tell of what they will do for downtrodden people in far-off lands you usually find them closing w ith a description of the resources and wealth of those countries. The boers are right, but unless we can aid them in some way their cause may not triumph. The bird of liberty has hitherto always found a resting place in this country. Lately the American eagle, it appears, has taken to eating carrion. We do not want for the boers the kind of liberty that England would give them. We want the boers to have the kind of liberty they want. If you have any influence lend your voice to the cause of the boers. If you have no influence, but have convictions, speak your sentiments.”

Shelby County Again.

The grand jury called in special session by Judge Morris in Shelby county to investigate the stealing of records and other violations of law by the county officers, returned indictments against ex-County Treasurer Wilson and Wm. McDougal, deputy sheriff, charging them with presenting false claims against the county. They gave bond in the sum of $2,000 each. This is said to be only a starter for the grand jury and it is expected other sensational developments will follow. The county council has appropriated $1,500 for the purpose of hiring experts to make an examination of the county offices immediately under direction of the court. All this is being done in the “reliably democratic” county of Shelby, and prominent democrats are behind the movement which is uncovering the rottenness of almost exclusive control by one party of county affairs for many years. Statistics show that Jasper county is much more rotten than Shelby in many ways, but we can get no investigation here. No, sir. Not to be thought of for a moment, notwithstanding nearly one thousand prominent voters and taxpayers of all political faiths petitioned for it.

Warren & Irwin are making loans on farm or city property at a low rate of interest and commission and on more liberal terms than can be obtained elsewhere iu Jasper County. I have private funds to loan on real estate at low rates for any length of time. Funds are always on hands and there is no delay—no examination of land, no sending papers east—absolutely no red tape. Why do you wait on insurance companies for 6 months for your money? I also loan money for short times at current bank rates Funds always on hand’ W. B. Austin. It has been demonstrated repeatedly in every state in the Union and in many foreign countries’that Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is a certain preventive and cure for croup. It has become the universal remedy for that disease. M. V. Fisher of Liberty, W. Va.,. only repeats what has been said around the globe when he writes: “I have used Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy in my family for several years and always with perfect success. We be.lieve that it is not only the best cough remedy, but that it is a sure cure for croup. It has saved the lives of our childrttK Wlttber of timea” This remedy is for sale by Hunt Bros., Druggists.
