The growth of the Evening News and the Republican during the past three weeks has been unprecedented. Over a hundred new subscribers have been added in town and new names are com ing in from every part of the countv. This is certainly gratifying to us for it is a Reason of the year when an increase Is not usually expected and it shows that our efforts to make a good paper are appreciated. We expect before many weeks to put on a full dress of new type and to enlarge the paper. We have now by far the largest and best equipment in the county, but as our circulation increases, we shall add new features to our paper and keep it at the head of the list of county seat papers in Indiana. Since the civil war the population of the United States has expanded from 35,000.000 to nearly 80,000,000. A period of forty years covers many mighty changes in thi3 country. The Michigan Legislature has just adjourned after sitting since Jan. 1 five months and yet scarcely a single measure of 'general importance was passed. The "ecord furnishes an argument for limited rather than indefinite session?, The news from South Africa will prove a surprise to those who had thought the British-Boer war practically ended. The fact that in the engagement of Thursday the Boers were the attrakicg party and were only repulsed with a heavy British loss shows they still have considerable fight in them. Instead of soldiers, the transport Sherman will take to Manila at least fivö hundred teachers, one-fourth of whom will be women, so that thosa who have been complaining of the forcing of civilization upon, the Filipino with Gatlicg guns musl devise the novel scheme of objecticg to the civilization of the school teacher. All over the country the people will sincerely sympathize with . President McKinley in the serious illness of his wife. She stood the locg ride from San Francisco to Washington quite well, but on arriving there, when the strain was lifted, she seemed to collapse, and her physicians and immediate friends are alarmed over her condition, Rather a strange reminder of the Chicago world's fair ccmes in a movement by some of the original stockholders for a final dividend. The manager have about $300.000 on hacd.deposited in good banks, but tied up by litigation. which is not likely to increase the amount, Tie managers expert to pay from 3 to i per fieri dividend, Senator Beveridge was in Berlin last week sad started for Russia last Saturday, Referring to the decision of the United States Supreme Court in the infeular cases. Senator Beveridge said: Apparently the decision gives Congress a constitutional free hand, which affords ma the greatest satisfaction. If the result be otherwise, I am much disappointed, One of the features of the Piatt amendment 19 to. prevent the payment of the many millions of bonds by those claiming to represent Cuba during the past decade. There are enough such bonds outstanding, for which little or nothing has been received, to impose a burden upon the island which would cripple its industries and its business. Many of these bonds are held by subjects of European governments, which might attempt to realize on them did not the United States become the protector of Cuba. ANNEXATION WOTJED BE JUST. The Ostend Manifesto, in 1854 said: Self preservation ia the first law of nature with states aa well as individuals. All cations have, at different periods, acted upon thia maxim. Although it has been made the pretext for committing flagrant injustice as in the partition of Poland and other eimi.'ar cases which history records, yet the imnciple itself, although often abused, h&a always been recognized. Does Cuba, in the the pocceccion of Spain, seriously endanger our internal peace and the existence cfour chericitd Union? Should this question be azzzzzd in the affirmative, then, by every XiT3t human and divine, tra c-i-l L J juir.Zd io wresting it from Cvl: :: t73 r'-"::3 power; and this, vzt t-3 very ci3 principle that would justify cn individual in tearing down the burning hou3 of ha neishbor if thsra wera no other nissns of preventing the fiimc3 from destroying hia own houss. .
Gen Fred Grant says that the work the Unitd States has done and is doing in the Philippines, "Is the greatest humanitarian worts ever performed by one people for another in the history of the world.
Thirtv men were excused from jury service in a murder ca3e at Marion yesterday because they wcre.opposed to the death penalty. Can it be thai softheartednesa increases in direct proportion to the nearness of jury duty? The balance sheet of the United States treasury shows a surplus of 810,500,009 for May, and for the eleven months of the fiscal year the surplus has been about 53.000,000. But the surplus of May far exceeds that of any previous month. The mother of Gov. Beckman, cf Kentucky, has a remarkable record, She has the unprecedented distintction of having been the mother of a governor, the daughter of a governor, the Bister of a governor and the cousin of a governor. The United States government has, it is said, adopted a new explosive called maximite, which, it is clairaed, will send an explosive projectile through the thickest battleship armor, We may be pardoned for hoping that the new discovery may not need to be put to an actual test very soon. The Washington Post states that Senator Fairbanks is much more interested in securing a re-election to the senate next year than he is in shaping things up for a presidential nomination of 1004. Come to thick of it, tbat is a matter of vital importance in so far as Mr. Fairbanks political future is involved, - The Indianapolis Journal thinks the place for "Prophet Elijah" Dowie is in the lunatic asylum, and that, judging by his ravings from the platform, is where he will land very shortlj. It is only charitable to believe that a large proportion of the three thousand people who cheered his wild utterances did so in much the 6ame spirit that they would cheer a dog fight or any other chance entertainment, and not because they accepted what the frenzied old man said Col. J, II. Höge, who is likely to receive the Republican nomination for governor of Yrghia, eays the white voters of that State are more divided between the Democratic and Republican parties than most people think, "Re member," he eays, "that McKinley carried 81 per cent, of the white countias of the state last year and Bryan 02 per cent of the black counties, That means that the Democrats won most of their votes after sundown." Colonel Höge belongs to and old and prominent Virginia family, and says thai if nominated he will make an aggressive campaign in every county of the state. At the request of the interior department the secretary of war has instructed General Merriam, commanding the department of Colorado, to employ as many of his troops as may be necessary to maintain order on Kiowa Indian reeeration, Oklahoma. The action is based on a dispatch from Colonel Randlett, in charge of the Kiowa and Comacche agency, reporting that at least 1,000 intruders had settled in the Wichita OUuuiu.Wu.bu... - lands, soon to be opened to settlement, brcJ that tey claimed the 0 j0 g6 Under the United States mineral laws. Secretary Hitchcock eays that they have no rights whatever and they will ba promptly ejected. The immigration to the states and territories between the Mississippi and the PaciPc in the past few months is beyond anything of the kind 6een in many years. This is the report of all the railroad companies, but particularly of thoee of the more Northern lines. All through Minnesota, the Dakotas, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho. Washington and Oregon there is a rush cf immigration such as was hardly surpassed in the boom years of thoee commonwealths. Missouri, KaLsas, Nebraska, Colorado and the other states of the central tier are also getting a larger immigration and the promise is that the movement will increase before it decreases. SCARCE IN INDIANA. State Geologist W. S. Blatchley receives many letter asking if go'.d can be found in Indiana in quantities that will pay for the mining and pay a fair revenue besides. His reply gives no encouragement to the gold seekers. He says that while Indiana is rich in other natural resources, it will pay no one to prospect for gold in this state "Gold in Indiana is found principally in Brown and Morgan counties, he said, "in some instances the worker makes from $1.25 to $1.50 a day by the panning process, but never more than that, One man came to me with 8120 worth of gold and eaid he had been working four months for it. It is altogether drift gold that was brought to Indiana by the Grit glacier that ever invaded the state, which canm down from the Hudson bay territory. When the glacier struck the bills of Morgan and Brown counties it nnuld po no farther and melted. This incident in world formation so impresses me that if I were going to hunt for gold today I would make a bee line for the Hudson bay territory, which ia more equable climatically, more easy. of access and, I bsliave, perhaps more productive of gold, than the Kliondke."
Dr. Edward Everett Hale tells how a curious error crept into the translation of the Lord's prayer into the Delaware Indian, tccgue. The English translator had aaan assistant an Indian who knew EDglieh. What is 'hallow in Delaware?' asked the translator. The Indian thought he eaid "halloo," and gave him the equivalent. Therefore the Delaware version of the Lord's prayer reads to thi3 dav: kOur father, who art in heaven, hallooed be thy name!"
A conference between corporations and their employes id to ba held June 21 ia Buffalo. The principal question to be discussed is the abolition of strikes and the substitution therefor of cordial relations between employer and employe. The call for the conference was issued by F. M. Savage, euperintendend of the Steel Works club of Joliet, III. Favorable replies have been received from firms all over the country, Mr. Savage beiieves that improved conditions and surroundings exert as great an influence on working men to make them contented as does the question of wages alone, lie argues that if the esthetic side of their lives be brought out it will result in general good to all. UNFAILING SIGN OF PROSPERITY. There is one sure-barometer of financial conditions in Kansas. Whenever tha people feel rich they get up s:hemes tu bore iu the ground after oil or gas, or other valuable productions. This propensity has given Kansas some very valuable coal, gas, oil and 6alt fields, and it is to ba encouraged, cot deplored, Today something like fifty towns arj boring holes ia the ground. "At one plase out in Western Kansas they are down close to 2,000 feet, and stiil are cheerfully chugging away, At Abiiece 3,000 has jjjt btea raised by popular subscription for the purpose of boring, and the worts is to be started at once. In Hutchinson a new salt well is going down at the rate of 200 feet a clay, and it is to have around it t le biggest salt plant in the State. In Southern Kansas derricks are a3 thick as haystacks and they are finding things, too. II Ell EYES OPENED. Mrs. Helen M, Gougar, one cf America's brillant intellects, has been fighting Republican principles along any old line tbat would embarrasä the administration, and in so doing she was S Democrat, a Populist, a Socialist, a Prohibitionist or anything to besome a pessimistic kicker. Some time since she went to Australia to giye America a rest and during her stay baa learned a few facts about labor unions and eocial deuio:racy that are not in accordance with common sense and Republican prosperity, In a letter to the Lafayette Journal ha rays: Every four men have to support a public servant. I have had my eyeb opened to the effects of some labor doctrines tfcuit our Socialists are advocating in the United States. For instance, the eight hour law," The theory is very good, but here we pee the effects of it. All factories, stores an J mechanical enterprises open dt 8 o'clock, and close at 5. If work is permitted by an employer after hours he is finod. After hours, or after 1 o'chek on the half hol'day which may be either Saturday or Wednesday if a grocer or bntcher tleilverB g00d9, he would be )' "': " " ' 7' , fliied, li a merchani or banker would allow hia booi keeper to work after hour?, he would be fined. I know a kookkeeper la a bookstore in Lafayette, Who is in the babit of taking his books oat of his employers houee after hours and posting up. This could not be done here as the proprietor would be fined for permitting it. And there are 6Core9 cf these petty interferences with bu&icepe. As the farmers cannot apply the eight hour plan, the laborers rueh into the towns, leaving the farmers to Euffer, acd wheu the city labor market is glutted, men demand work of the government at the minimum wages of $1.75 a day; and if the government has no work they riot, and the Dickens is to pay. The result is that capita! will not run the risk of investment, and hard times prevail, asd the settlement of the vast country is retarded. A father cannot employ his own son over fourteen years of age. not even to drive a grocery wagon, without paying him 10 a week. In America we have a trust in money, and here they have a trust in muscle. And I do not know which is the worst." supreme Court on Pay Of Jurors. The sunreme court has given a snub to jurors by deciding that they are en titled to but 82 a day for 21 hours, and that it doesn't matter whether they work night" and day. W, R. Willard, a juror of Delaware county, served from Nov, 20. to Dec. 2, 1899, 13 calendar days. The judge allowed him $50 on the ground that he served 13 days and 12 nights. The county auditor refused to pay it and was mandated by the lower court. The supreme court does not allow" but merely certifies the surr, due, as fixed by the statute $2 a day of 24 hours.
