School election will be held April 15 for the purpose of electing one director, and also to vote upon the building of a new school house. Our present school building is a disgrace to the district, and something must be done toward repair­ ing or toward building a new one. To repair the old building would, in the opinion ot any intelligent voter, be a waste of money and material, as half as much money would be required to do fiat as to build a comfoi table, new school honse that can be properly warmed]'cleaned and kept as a fchool house should be. Why be so shoit aight ed as to send your children to spend sev eral hours each day in a poor building! Part of the money has already been raised for the purpose of building and the small amount yet needed will never be felt by tax payers in proportion to the good it will do. We have yet failed t) hesr any objections raised to a new building from our heaviest tax payers. J. Garrison rtjoice over the arrival , son and heir at their home. RICH MEN IN THE SENATE.

Jones, of Nevada, was the wealthiest member of the United States senate. He kindly estimates Senator Jones* fortune somewhere in the neighbor­ hood of $20,000,000. A friend meeting the Nevada senator yesterday congrat­ ulated him on his elevation to the ranks of the plutocrats and multi-mil­ lionaires. Senator Jones turned away impatiently. "If the World," he said, "will honor my drafts on the basis of the wealth it has presented me With I will gladly give you one-half, and I don't know but a great deal more. 1 think that I could easily afford to do so, as I should be a very large winner at that" One result of the publication of Senator Jones' alleged riches has be^p to fill his mail with begging let­ ters and promoters' schemes. If they keep up he will think seriously, It is said, of sending a bill to the newspaper which started the story for the addi­ tional expense it has cost him. The truth is that Senator Jones, 20 years ago, was rated as a millionaire. He was at one time worth probably $5,000,000. He subsequently lost his money, however, and while he is by no means broke at the present day, he is a considerable distance from being a millionaire. He has property that may be worth a great deal some day, and it may not. It all depends, but it is not bringing him in any revenue now. There are at least 25 or 30 sena­ tors Who are a great deal better off from a financial point of view that Senator Jones. If one were asked to pick out the1 richest man in the senate off-hand he would probably name either Mark Hanna or James McMillan, of Michi­ gan. Some of the other millionaires tn the senate are Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, Redfield Proctor of Vermont, Nelson W. Aldrich of Rhode Island, Thomas C. Piatt of New York, Stephen B. Elkins of West Virginia, Joseph B. Foraker of Ohio, Charles W. Fairbanks of Indiana, George L. Shoup of Idaho, and James Smith, Jr., of New Jersey, Senator Hale of Maine is a rich man by brevet, his wife, who was a daughter of the late Zach Chandler of Michigan, Inherited a large fortune from her father. There are quite a number of senators who may become rich some day--pro­ vided they are permitted to remain la the senate, but that i3 another story. There are probably fewer uncomfort­ ably wealthy men in the senate today than for a number of years.--Wash­ ington Times.

The German emperor Is not the man that the gi at chancellor was, but in this one r speet he is Ms superior, He does realize how great a force re­ ligion is, and how dangerous it may be to neglect it. This has been conspic­ uously shown in the course of his visit to the east. He has been a Mo­ hammedan with the Mohammedans, a Protestant with the Protestants, a Catholic ° with the Catholics. It is difficult to our western and Chris­ tian idea, to discover any virtue in the sultan, but at least he may be admit­ ted to be a good Mohammedan. If his treatment of his Christian subjects is open to criticism on other grounds, it is impregnable here. This, we may suppose, is the reading of his charac­ ter adopted by the German; emperor. "Before we can condemn tlife sultan's treatment of the Armenians, whether in their own country or $ofistantlno- p-le, we must give full weight to his religious convictions. The Mohamme­ dan ,religion in its integrity has no compassion for Christians. Their lives are already forfeited by theLr ob­ stinate belief; all that is left to the khalif is to determine when he shall proceed to take them." Realizing this, the emperor's course was clear. "In Abdul-Hamed," we may imagine him saying, "I see only the devoted relig­ ionist. His moral standard may be different from mine, but we occupy the same theological standpoint. He was but carrying out his creed and obeying the convictions which that creed embodies and imparts." This is familiar ground to a Hohensollern. It is the reudering appropriate to the atmosphere of the Ottoman empire of the old Hebrew vow, "As for me and my house, we shall serve the LoM."-- London Speaker.
