The $4,000 Conscience Contribution Dur
ing f3annimg's Term Was Covered Into
the Treasury.
WASHINGTON, Oct Secretary Win
dom has been criticised undeservetlly in
New York state for making public an
anonymous communication accompany
ing a conscience contribution received at
the treasury department. in which the
writer insinuated that an earlier contri-
button of $1,000 sent to the department
while the late Mr.. Manning was secre-
tary. had been appropriated by the ex-
secretary to his own use. The fact is
that when this letter was made public
by Assistant Secretary Bachelor few
days ago. he prepared q statement to
accompany it TO the effect that the de-
partment records showed the S4 ,995 had
been received and placed into the treas
ury on the date referred to by the con-
science stricken contributor. By mis-
take this statement became temporarily
separated from the anonymous letter,
and consequently was omitted from the
account telesraphed to some newspapers.
Neither Secretary Whitney nor Assistant
Secretary Batchellor are at all response
bic for the o,nissionand regret it as much
as any of Mr.. Manning's most intimate
friends

WARLIKB IN CANADA.
Preparations in the Dominion That
Bode III for Peace in the Behr.
ing Sea Troubles.
Information Asked fer by the British
Government Regarding Facilities
for Handling Troops.
The Order Taken as Evidence That the
Fisheries Negotiations Have
Fallen Through.

MONTREAL, Oct. 12.-An order has
been received from the British war office
by the commanders of the military dis
tricts of Canada, directing them as fol-
lows:
On receipt of this communication you
will Immediately take steps to ascertain
in your several districts the fullest in
formation regarding all facilities for the
transportation of troops from one part of
the country to another, giving details as
to means of transports by rail or water
and also ascertain how many horses are
available in your district at short notice
for the purpose Of military transport" :"
BY many the order is considered as a hint
that the alleged agreement between Eng
land and lie United States on
The Behring Sea Difficulty
has fallen through and that Great Britain
is about to show that she means business
b. throwing imperial troops into various
parts of Canada. But the officers of the
fifth and sixth military districts. who
have their headquarters in Monteal,
doubt that the order has any such serious
Importance. All admit, however, that
the order was unexpected, and is unpre-
cedented. The only reason any of them
can assign for the mandate is that DOS
slbly it is the intention of England to
throw strong garrison into the new for
tltications constructed and III the course
OF construction on the Pacific coast, and
that the imperial authorities wish to as
certain what facilities are ut hand for the
rapid transport of these troops across the
continent

The REPUBLICAN takes great salts
faction in calling attention to the list
of cash patents published in another
column, as received at the local land
Office during the past week. The list
includes large proportion of suspen-
ded entries, and adds further evidence
to the n-technical and business-like
policy of the present administration.
The effect of this policy is already
measurably apparent in the increased
confidence Of the settlers that their
hard-earned rights are not to be dis
turbed, and in the assurance of stabil-
ity which is given to real estate secu-
rites and farm loans. On the other
hand. clearlY-proven fraudulent entries
are being as equitably disposed of.

but if she didn't, why Mitchell would,
and then we should still be happy

The Visitors From Beyond the Isthmus
interviewed by the Ubiquitous Re-
porter.
New YORK, Oct. 11.-The Herald's
Worcester correspondent says: Inter
viewed the South American delegates on
the persistent attacks made by European
and especially English papers, on this in
ternational congress. Not one of the gen
tlemen considered the utterance of the
hostile journals to have any weight, at
any rate with themselves.
Senor Jeronimo Zelaya, of Honduras,
said: "The government of Honduras
has taken taken the liveliest interest in
this congress and has gone into it with
high hopes. We desire to develop the
natural resources of our countries. We
are
Nearer 10 the United States
and have better means of communica-
ton with it than we have with Europe.
This Isl matter simply of commercial
interests. We have already several North
American companies dealing with us,
and we may find it more advantageous
to trade still more extensively with the
United States"
Senor Jacinto Castellanos, one of the
delegates fronSalvador, said to me: ooh,
we are not to be influenced in the least
by what the British and other Journals
say of us. We naturally desire to be
prosperous and rich, and therefore this
conference with the United States should
not be considered
An Attack Upon England
or any other European country.
Senior N. Bolet Pcrazza, delegate from
Venezuela. said: "All the powers in Eu-

tlons, which are very large They see
that this congress will reduce some of

Conservative and just Criticism

Aberdeen News: A very conserva-
tive and just criticism Of the remarks
of Hon. Fl. H. Keith, of Sioux Falls
before the Baptist convention, held re-
Gently at Mitchell, appears in the RE-
PUBLICAN of that city. He took the po-
sition of the Catholic church, that all
higher education should be left to col
leges controlled by religious denomina-
tions. He would demollsh all state in.
stitutions of learning. or not establish
any, and from those that do exist, he
would exclude all students living be-
yond the state line. Such policy
would compel the young idea to shoot
through pretty small bore.

Washington Springs Republican,:
Mitchell comes boldly to the front and
declares she will be in the capital race
again in 1890, and that she will be the
permanent capital CT South Dakota.
Mitchell's pluck is admirable; but we
honestly believe that the only way to
e. er remove the capital from Pierre is
for the Jim and Sioux valley cities to
combine on some prairie location-and
if shis is to be done, just pin the name
of Washington Springs to the lapel of
your coat, all work together and we'n

Our much-esteemed brother of the

he should call to mind his many little
