Tun new Goornor of Nebraska has
lirokcii tho record by sending in a mes

a thousand words, less than an ordin

mistake.
A San Francisco paper makes
much ado about a man living tvlthout

thousands of Americans who would bo
glad of tho opportunity, having found
living with u cantankerous stomach a
very trying ordeal.
It is rolated that a Phllutlolphla
youth addicted to high collars and
high balls, sat down on his front slops
intoxicated and was found tho ioxt
morning choked by his own collar.
What depths a man can sink to who

A ni:v daily paper is announced for
Pckin, to bo published in soven differ
ent languages. Whilothis fact may
cause soiiio confusion at times, every
newspaperman will onvy tho editor's
chanco to fully cxptess his opinion of
certain tilings. Ono languago don't
near do justlco to an editor's feelings.
The certainty that not enough mem-
'bers of tho Legislature aro pledged
to either Baker or Burton to secure
the election of ono of themhas brought
flomo mighty good names as Sena
torial possibilities. Among these
names perhaps tho most prominent are
Justice Johnston and C. S. Gleed,
and It would bo hard to beat cither of
tli cm.
A nnsoi.UTio.M directing the census
commltteo to inquiro into tho alleged
'restriction of the right of sulTrago In
l lie southern States was defeated in
tho Houso Wednesday by tho narrow
margin of two votos. As u largo
number of members of tho House were
iibscnt, tho resolution will doubtless
come tip ngaln. And it ought to pass.
Tho Bcpublican party now has power

W. A. White: Tlio Leitcrs lmo
just given a grand ball in Washing
ton. Old man Loiter is an American
ized Gentian. Ho started as a W a
week clerk in a country store. Later
lie was a peddler. Now ho Is wotlh
2i,000,000. Ills wife was a country

bad making their money. Joe Loiter,
tho son, got tlio corner on wheat that

Daisy Loiter Is Lady Curon, tho llrst

rousing editorial upon tlio dungor of
Kmporia becoming a wicked city when
nho shall havo grown into a great
metropolis on account of tlio now rail
road to which tho county has just vot

Hontlment of tho community to seo that
tlio town is kept good and pine. Some
ilvo or six yours ago some mobt ex

a similar vein to tho county attorney
and asked tlio IlixiiSTr.il to publish it,
which it did without comment and with
tho signatures of tho womon attached.

ORAN0EINB CHEMICAL CO., Chluio, III.
a son of Cortlandt Parker, of Newark,
N. J. Col. Purkor Is in command of
"an Isolated province In southeast
ern Luzon," with a population of
somo 50,000. It throws a ray of light
on u situation not generally very
cheerful:
"In ono of the schools 1 havo es
tablished heto tho children, taught
two hours dally by a soldier, orally,
(for I havo no books) hao learned in
six weeks over 500 Lngllsh words, and
Can oven sustain a short conversation,
their accent boing clear and distinct.
Nowadays as I rldo about my prov
vinco I tun saluted at over) door by
littlo childish voices piping up, 'Good
morning, Colonel.' I stop and speak
with them In Kngllsh. They answer
mo proudly from their littlo stoio of
nowl) acquired knowledge, and its I
rldo away thoy always cry out, 'Good
byoOolonol.' Tho boys aro till our
friends. Thoy play with tlio soldiers
and talk to them. Thoro is no tiso for
Spanish hero any longer. Only those
who received an unusual education
can talk and read Spanish. Tho chil
dren should bo taught from English
school books, and well taught. A
knowledge of 'Americano' will mako
them quickly Americans.
"Tilings nro gradually progressing
heto. Wo hao muyors und police In
all tho towns of tho province and
schools. 1 dotitil a soldier to touch
in euoh school and tho children aro
making grout pi ogress. On uccotint
of tlio confusion of dialects; Bicol,
Visayan, Ilolau, and Tttgal, tho text
books havo always been Spanish. 1
trust that tlio commission will not
allow this system to be perpetuated.
I propose that In tho schools of this
district the children snail learn geog-J
rupby, history und arithmetic in Kng
lish. as thoy desito to do. Tlio dllli-
cult) Is toxtbooks. If 1 only could
get it lot of Illustrated primers! It is
u glorious opportunity. By teaching
these childi en to toad Kngllsh, In Ilvo
v cars there will bo a new generation
coining to the front that will tpad
American nowspapors, appreciate
American manufactures, liuvo now
wants, be clvilied. Know lug tho uses
of things, thoy will want them. Thoy
will no longer bo content with a but
without ftirnltuio and u pound . rlco
it ilny. Thoy will want m ic t' buy
the thing-, they need, ml w.ll ba
willing to work for It. it is labor
that will make the-o islands enormous

TIGKtT SCALPERS IN TROUBLE
Sonie nro in .iuil itnil Chief ul I'ollco
Ivlpley is Alter Otliors.
Tho t hicago nter-Ocean (r lucent
dale say-:
The ticket scalpers are having a
lively time of it. B. Nowrlttcr was
held to tho grand jury yesterday by
Justice Prindlville, on it chargo of
fogcr) profundi by Commissioner
Donald of tho Central passenger as
sociation. Henry J. Allurdt was aUo
held to tho Criminal court on u charge
of selling forged tickets. C. II. Spoors,

ardt will havouhoiirlngbofoio .lustlco
Prindlvillo toduy on u chargo similar
to that pieferrcd uguinst his brother.
Henry Allot dt found a bondsman yos
torday and was released from jail, but
B. New fitter has not yet found a
bondsman:
"I urn very glud tho passenger as
sociations aro prosecuting those tickot
scalpers," said Chief of Police Klpley.
"Wo havo hud un average of two or
three complaints every day sinco Uio
Grand Anny encampment from per
sons who weio sold worthless tlckots
by scalpers. ,In somo cases women
weioptttotl trains becauso thoy bud
paid all thoir money for those fraudu
lent tickets. Tho scalpers refuse to

until wo send an olllcor with tho per

After tho polico get thoir money buek
for them tho persons will not stay to

Mr. Kicholson may nlso put
in a Kolliiur Mill und Acid
Works To Begin nt
Once
Mr. George K. Nleholsonhasbought
an additional truct of land nil joining
Ills present smelter slto and will nt
once begin tho work of lidding two
more blocks of retotts and building
tho neeessar) additional kilns, pot
teries and other structures that will
bo needed to operate tho new furnaces
to their full capacity.
In order to mako this extension of
his already largo plant Mr. Nichol
son was obliged to ihuvo U00 nioro feet
of land, and ho has been negotiating
for somo time with Mr. John '!'
Holmes, tho owner of tho adjoining
tract, to secure It. A bargain was
llnall) reached wlieieby Mr. Nichol
son exchanged tho well right which ho
has had for some time on the propctty
now owned b) the Cement plant for
the gas right on the tract which lie
desired, and a pi Ire for tho surface
agreed upon. This agreement was
only i cached Prlday.
Mr. Nicholson lost no time, but lias
already placed bis orders for the
material ntcded to construct the new
furnaces, and tho woik will bo pushed
as rapidly as possible. If tho
pleusunt w outlier continues tho new
works will be iuoerutlon in ninety
days.
When Mr. Nicholson camo to Iola
he only promised to mn a smelter of
two blocks. Ho has gradually and
without asking any contributions from
anybody, built oue block after
another until ho now has 1800 tetorts.
With the new furnaces ho will havo
MOO retorts, which makes his smelter
the equal of tho Lallarpo plant
of tho Lanyon Zinc Company, at
pi esent the largest in this Held. And
that shows how much better Mr.
Nicholson has been than his word.
Tho contemplated expansion will re
quite an addition of To men to the ul
teudy liirge force, und will increase
tho pay roll from 5(1000, Its present
Ilguro, to $10,000 u month.
And that Is tha way wo grow!
This large extension of bis plant
nuturully Imposes the necessity upon
Mr. Nicholson of providing a market
for his Increased pi oduct, und lie ex
pects to started east Monday night to
look up tho muttor of a lolling mill
uud ueld plant. Ho bus hud these
plants under consideration for somo
lluio, and tho purpose of tho pioscnt
trip Istoinfouu himself more fully
as to tho details of tlio manufacture,
tho markets etc. His plans are not
sulllclently miituied to warrant tho
positive announcement that ho w ill em
bark lu thoso enterprUos, but tho Um-
tSTi:it feels warranted In stating that
ho bus them under serious considera
tion, and has gone far enough to de
cide that ifthonecessury arrangements
can bo made bo will locate them on tho
Lafo McCiirloy laud which ho recently
bought, south of his smelter.
Asldo fiom the commoiciul obliga
tions which thoy feol under toward
him, all tho people who havo become
acquainted with Mr. Nicholson havo
tho highest regard for him personally,
and they will lead this repot t of tho
success of his great enterprise with
donblo satisfaction, tlio iinsolllsh sat
isfaction of friendship, and tho sclllsh
ploasuro In tho advancement of thoir
own interests.
With two smeltors itlroudy assured,
for this extension is practically a now
Umolter, Iola can look forward to tho
tho summer without any anxiety.

Iola people havo learned by experi
