The work of the Alaska boundary commission will not commence until the end of the second week in April, and It is presumed that the commission will hardly take pla:e in London, before the middle cf August. ' While the general tone of the- verdict of the anthracite commission is la favor of the miners, the decree is rendered that nop-union miners who desire to work shall be fully protected. That is a very important feature. President Roosevelt is said to have decided to appoint Edgar E. Clark, of Iowa, as assistant secretary of the new Depajtmeht of Commerce. Mr. Clark is chief of the Brotherhood of Railway Conductors and was a member of the anthracite coal commission. There is an unwritten but final law against more than two consecutive terms for a president of the United States. Three consecutive terms ought to be enough for a mayor of Chicago; especially for a failure as mayor. Chicago Chronicle. Irishmen once formed nearly half the immigration to this country, but now contribute but oue thirtieth to the stream of newcomers, the number last year being 29,138 in a total of 648,743. If the talk of British concessions to Ireland takes a tangible form, the arrivals from Ireland will show a further reduction. The statement by Senator Spooner that President McKinley offered him the secretaryship of the Interior and afterward . the attorney generalship both of which he declined, has brought out the fact that Senator Allison was offered the secretaryship of the treasury successively by Presidents Garfield, McKinley and Harrison. Tom Johnson, Carter Harrison and "Golden Rule" Jones are all in line again for the mayoraltv race in their respective cities of Cleveland, Chicago and Toledo. , llxi. contests . will be watched with Interest as these are the three most widely famed mayors in America. ; Jon js and Harrison lars each after a fourth term and Johnson is striving for a second one. Senator Beveridge says the congress which recently adjourned,;.thrqugh the creation of the department of commerce, the enactment of the Elkins law providing for rebates on railroad tariffs and the appropriation vt 1500,000 to be used by the attorney-general in prosecuting illegal combinations, 1 made ample provision for the time being for the regulation of trusts. President Hargrave of the Indiana coal miters utters a sentiment that does honor to .him and to his organization. He says the condemnation of of the boycott by the commission was not at the request of the coal operators, but by the necessities of the miners themselves, and goes on virtually to declare that unionism suffers even more than the public or the individual frooi the use of the boycott. The South Bend Tribune, thinks it is the plain purpose of the old line democrats to make a desperate effort in the next presidential campaign to put Bryanlsm to rout, and as the days go by the fact that Grover Cleveland is at the bead of the movement becomes more and more prominent. Cleveland seems to have grown espe cially uneasy under the bitter thrusts that have been made athfm by Bryan. TVatterson and others, and he seems determined to get out in the field and show the democrats and the country generally that he is not the dead thing he is claimed to be. The. republican senators give several reasons why the Xuban treaty was amended and nullified, the chief being that otherwise it could not have been ratified. Mr. Hansbrougb, .who keeps tally on the republican side, declares that they, didn't have thevotes to ratify it, and were at least three and probably five votes short of the necessary two-thirds majority. He canyassed the senate several times, and counting all the doubtful votes id favor of the . treaty there was at no time two-thirds in its favor. This situation, it is explained, was due to ßaveral reasons, chiefly to the determination of Mr. Gorman and other democrats that the president should not haTe the credit of winning the long fight be has mzde Itf a vor of Cuban reciprocity. In the second place, Mr. Gorcin end the democrats ere determined to provoke a general t-rlS'fisht tlttz ncit t:::lcn, and recognized thit Cuban reciprocity was tzczI tzcV.2 v;:f 2 they could czz'zrts for c-c-irr that lzz-2.

... 0erj.JFoseph.H Geiger, who died at his bone" in "Ohio last Monday, .was noted in his day as a lawyer, orator and politician. He belonged to the school of stump speakers of which Tom

Corwin in Ohio and Caleb B. Smith and ,nenry S. Lane in Indiana were shining' lights, and General Geiger ranked among the best. Though dim inutive and insignificant in appear ance, his wit and wisdom made him popular in all circles. The Indianapolis Sentinel, the dem ocratic organ of Indiana says: Mr. Jerome's criticism of Mr. Carnegie, to the effect that the workingmen would be better off with fewer libraries and more wages, might be accepted if it were a choice between the two, but the weakness of the proposition lies in the fact that Mr. Carnegie did cot make his money by cutting dow wages. He paid as high wages as others, on the average. Mrs. Maybrick, the American wo man imprisoned in England, ' about whom so much has been said and done during the past ten years is actually to be set free in another year. It will not be in the nature of a pardon or even a commutation of any part of her sentence, as under English law her term of life imprisonment will then have expired. She then will have served 15 years, and allowances for good behavior make her term of sen tence complete. Those who are going about showing discontent and discord between employer and employee, and teaching a doctrine of prosperity that Is impossible and ideal, must be put down as men who would destroy the prosperity of the country and in the end destroy the country itself." Such was the declaration ' of Archbishop Quigley of Chicago at a banquet the night of St. Patrick's day, and the Indianapolis Journal says one will look along time before he will find so important a fact stated so emphatic ally. One day this week a Cleveland judge took occasion to rebuke a jury, for showing sympathy to a woman chargj ed with complicity in' the murder of her husband. "A weak and sentimental jury has made the publi.4 proclamation that murder committed by a woman is no crime in this county," we e the words of the judge, in sen tencin Charles Janowski to life 1m imprisonment for the murder of Mrs Wiurkowski's husband. It is a fact that sentiment plays a very important part in many trials, and sometimes causes a travesty on justice. Melville W. Miller, of Lafayette, Ind., assistant secretary'of the inter ior, is working on a plan In relation to appealed pension cases which will be of interest to soldiers in Indiana and generally throughout the United States. There has been complaint of the intermlnible delay In securing the adjudication of claims appealed from the commissioner of pensions to the Interior department. In some cases such appeals have -slumbered peacefully In the files of the depart ment for years without receiving any attention. The Tolume of appeal cases may be understood when it is stated that they are disposed of at the rate of 1,400 a month, while at least six hundred cases monthly are brought to the attention of the assistant sec retary. Secretary Miller is working on a plan whereby cases shall be adjudicated within a certain .specified time. There are many difficulties ia the way of the practical operation of such a plan, but Secretary Miller and his associate officials believe they will soon be in a position to act upon cases more expeditiously than at present. No Excuse for Snip Convent ions. Over 2000 republicans "of Indianapolis have signed a vigorous protest against the holding of a snap conven tion in the interest of , the Bookwalter machine. The. latter has called; the convention for next Saturday, which is six months In advance of the election. The purpose of holding a city convention at so early a date can hardly be misjudged.: It is self-evident, self-explanatory, and self-condemning: It Is an outrageous usurpation of authority that ought to be resented by every individual who considers himself an American freeman. There is neither excuse nor justifica tion for siap conventions, no matten by whom or for whose benefit they are called. South Bend Times. N New Watch Fictory Opens. Clement Studebaker, jr., president of the South Bend Watch Company, surrounded by the officials, directors and stockholders of the corporation and in the presence of about 150 expert employes who had assembled for the auspicious occasion, pressed the Ivory-tipped electric button Saturday morning at 7:30 o'clock that started the current which set in motion the improved automaticmacbinery of the splendidly equipped new watch factory which has taken its place in the ranks of the long list of South Bend's iudustiles..

Labor Leaders Claim Victory, but Report Is Hostile to the Unions. Although a substantial victory for the anthracite coal miners Is claimed by labor leaders as the result of the coal commission appointed by President Roosevelt last October and made public Saturday, the dicta of the report may be accepted as hostile to union labor. . After ordering an advance in miners' wages ranging from 10 to 20 per cent.' based upon current coal prices, reducing hours of labor and awarding back wages amountiog to $3,000,000, the commission in its report refuses to recognize the United Mineworkers of America, expressly denies the right of a labor organization to abridge the freedom of nonunion men to sell their labor in the open market and caustically arraigns subordinate heads of the miners' union as well as the miners themselves for lawlessness and coercion in connection with the anthracite coal strike. The commission says: "Our language is xhe language of a free people and fails to furnish any form of speech by which the right of a citizen to work when he pleases, for whom he pleases ind on what terms lie pleases can be successfully denied. " According to the miners' counsel all the awards made by the commission represent net gains to the miners, although it is admitted that President Baer offered at one time to fix the minimum wage scale on the basis of $5 coal. The commission fixed this basis at $4.50. Under the commission's awards miners not working by the day, month or year will be granted an advance in wages ' of 10 per cent and miners working by the day, month or year will be granted a nine-hour instead of a ten-hour day. The wages of the former class, it is figured, will be advanced 12$ per cent, as they, too. have been granted a nine-hour. instead of a ten-hour day. Firemen and engineers under the decision of the Gray commission are given n eighthour Instead of a twelve-hour day and the wages of some of these employes have been advanced. In addition to a general advance of 10 per cent in most instances and a decrease in working hours the commission recommends the settlement of all disputes by arbitration and provides a minimum wage with a sliding scale. Provision is also made against discrimination of persons 'either by mine owners or miners on account of membership or nonmembership in a labor union, and it is provided that the awards of the commission shall be in force until March 31, 1906. The miners having worked 120 days since Nov, 1, 1902, it is estimated that back pay due them will reach nearly $3,000,000 and that advanced wages will amount approximately to $8,000,000 a year. : . Binding On Both Parties, There will be some curiosity to see to what extent and how faithfully both the operators and miners will accept the findings of the anthracite coal commission. " Will both parties accept them in good faith and endeavor to give full effect to the meaning, and intent of the commission, or will they, by juggling, try toevadeor defeat such features as they do not like? As lar as men can be honorably bound to accept the decision of any board of arbitration and carry At out in good faith both parties are so bound In this case. It has been more than five months since the com mission, was appointed, and the public may have forgotten the circumstances of its origin. It was appointed by President Roosevelt after conferences with representatives of the operaters and the miners, in which he succeeded in getting them to agree to this course and to submit all the points In controversy to a commission he should appoint. The proposition came from the operators, and in their statement to the public t bey said: . ; "We suggest a commission to be appointed by the President of the.TJnited States to whom shall be referred all questions at issue between the respective companies and tn?irown employes, whether they belong to a union br not but the decision of that commission shall be accepted.by us." The proposition was accepted by Mr.' Mitchell subject to the. approval of the miners' convention, and this was given. In his dispatch to the President announcing the fact Mr. Mitchell said: "We have decided to accept the proposition and submit all questions at Issue between the opera tors and mine workers of the anthra cite coal region for adjustment to the commission which vou haye named." Thus the submission or the questions at issue to arbitration was complete on both sides, ' and the findings of the commission are equally blndinc on ... . - " - " dolq.

5'President Roosevelt, Former President Cleveland and Public Men Generally to Attend, The magnificent character of the ceremonies contemplated for the 30th of April next, at St, Louis, has scarcely been touched upon. The occasion is the celebration of the 100th anniversary of tlie Louisiana purchase and the dedication of the buildings for the World's Fair of 1904. . President Roosevelt, accompanied by his cabinet and the diplomatic corps, will attend. Former President Cleveland will deliver the principal address. Cardinal Gibbons. Bishop Potter and Bishop Hendricks will represent three of the great church organizations at the ceremonies. The governors of the Louisana Purchase states will be present accompanied by their staffs. The governors of many other states will also be present. The national commission and board of lady managers of the exposition, state and foreign commissions to the World's Fair and many other distinguished persons will take part in the event. A public holiday season will be proclaimed continuing for three days, April 30, May 1 and 2. Major General Henderson C. Corbin will be the grand marshall and over 5,000 government troops and ten thousand members of the national guard will attend the ceremonies in uniform and participate in the grand parades. The fireworks display wl'l be of a character surpassing any previous attempt in this line. The fireworks program covers the entire three days and provides both day and evening displays. Splendid musical events will be a part of the three-day celebration. Two hundred thousand visitors are expected, for which provision has been made by a complete canvas of the city and provision will be made for the comfort of all. The Work of Congress. Senator Fairbanks arrived at his home in Indianapolis last Saturday. 'The congress was an exceedingly busy one," he said, "and a large amount of important work was done. One of the important matters was the amendment of the bankrupt law In several essential particulars which had been suggested by the experience under the old law. We also passed a very important immigration law, one of the most important that has ever been enacted on the subject of immigration. It was in many re spects a codification of the existiLg laws. The head tax was increased from $1 to $2. The excluded classes weie extended to embrace the exclusion of professional beggars and more stringent measures were provided to prevent the ringing into this country of diseased persons. The administrative features of the law have been so strengthened and carefully framed as to make it almost impossible for the excluded classes to secure admission contrary to the law. Provision was also made by congress for materially strengthening the navy." Noses Art Scarce in Nome. Half the citizens of Nome, Teller City and other far northern Alaskan gold towns and camps are minus fingers, noses, ears, toes, feet and legs. This statement has been brought back from the gold-seekers' country by Henry J. Dieter, who was one of the first to enter Alaska, reports the Chicago Tribune. , The gold seekers have paid a high price for the metal they have secured, he says. They have been so frozen and frostbitten that their heads and trunks are about the only portions of their bodies which have not been Injured. . . . . ' This prospector is of the 6pinion that there is hardly one entirely ablebodied man In the entire far northern country. After, hearing of his own experience one does not wonder that the country' Is filled with cripples. The disasters of the winter of 1900 killed all his companions, who were located with him north of Teller City. Many were lost in the blizzards, soma died of hunger and many others succumbed to the severity of the cold. During these days Dieter recorded the tempature readings. The average is forty deffrees below zero. Aged Prisoner. Richard Pace of Jeffersonville, Ind., who bias been receiyed at the prison In Michigan City to serve an indeterminate sentence of from ten to fourteen years for assault and battery with intent to commit murder, bears the distinction of, being one of the most aged inmates of the prison, behaving reached the three-quarter century milestone on life's roadway. Pace was convicted for a murderous assault committed on a negro living in Clark county. It appears that the old man had been greatly bothered by a color ed man and one day last winter during a fit of temper shot his tormenter with a shot gun, the load from which shattered the colored man's right arm and made amputation of that member necessary. An effort is being made to have the aged prisoner pardoned. It positively cures after all other remedies fail. The doctors are puzzles over the wonderful cures made by Rocky Mountain Tea. 35 cents.

A Lively Runaway. A horse driven by Misses Josie Campbell and Masie Reed ran away east of the Webster sohool building Sunday afternoon, ran north on Miner street, west to Michigan street and north almost to the railroad, where a wheel was smashed and both girls thrown out. Strange as it may seem neither of them were much hurt. The girls clung tD the lines during a perilous journey of almost half a mile unable to control the horse, but screaming as loud as they could. The horse ran onto the sidewalk in front of the Johnson Brownlee property and the buggy skinned some of the trees on the Corbalay lot, recently purchased by Mr. Bosworth. The women and children in that vicinitv were as badly frightened as the girls in the buggy, for they expected every moment that the girls would be killed The horse was caught in the north part of town and seemed to have suffered little from his furious race. Council Meeting. At the council meeting Monday evening the entire time outside of regular routine business was taken ur in discussing the application ef Ringgenberg & Cullison for privilege to use the Shakes building on North Michigan street for a wagon shop. A remonstrance having been filed it required a two-thirds vote to grant them the bnilding. Councilman Logan was absent at Valparaiso and two members of the council opposing the motion, the council took a recessuntil Tuesday evening. ' If is a matter of considerable importance, as . the wagon . works . will probably have to leave town if they are not allowed the use of this build ing. If somebody wanted to comehere from some distant city with a manufactory of the same kind they would probably te given a bonus and allowed to occupy the building with out protest. Trusts Alter Roosevelt From democratic sources it is learn ed that the moneyed interests of the republican party are urging Senator Hanna to come out as a candidate for the republican nomination for presi dent in opposition to Roosevelt, on account of thelatter's firm stand against trusts and combinations of capital. It is further reported from the samesource that Senator Hanna spurns all such propositions and positively refuses to be considered a candidate for that office. This does not exactly leave the field clear for Roosevelt, as Senator Fairbanks, of this state, isbeing considered next to Hanna, so rumor says. There is no probability, however, that Senator Fairbanks will lend any encouragement to a movement pf this kind. He no doubt, would be pleased to receive the nomination for president, but he will not take it as the champion of any one faction of the republican party. It must come to him as a unanimous ten der or not at all. South Bend Trioune. . " C'iDG3C:i
