And still the attempts to bolster upI the
Mayors "policy OF infamy" goes on.
Even column in the Journal cannot put
a satisfactory look on the matter. The
truth Is the thing is q dismal failure,
covered by the political scheme at the
back OF It. Even the man whose face 10
pinched with cold, and hunger written In
every line, turns away from 1t with a
sneer. Outraged charity itself will soon
rise up against it.

UNDER A HEAVY FIRE
BrazII's Troops Advanced
Upon Da Cana.
LIVELY BATTLE FOLLOWS.
Admiral Da Cana B ars Bullet Wounds
as Mementoes Of the Fight.

RIO DR JAyEIRo, Feb. e-At O'clock
this morning 800 insurgents a'tl ked
Arnacao aud Pouta dl Arois lu lue
vicinity OF Nicthesoy.
Launches conveying the landing parties
left the island Of Conoeicao at $50 a. In.,
and succeeded in reaohing the mainland
without discovery Then in ha'f an hour,
after heavy firing on both sides, the gov
ernment troops retired. leaving dye Off
GERS and ~ men prisoners, and six officers
and so men killed. AT 5 o'clock, re-en-
forcements Of over 1000 men arriving, the
government troops again advanced under
a heavy fire OF rifles and machine guns.
The krupp battery, stationed on the
island OF Caju, opposite Ponta da Areia,
was also engaged. Admiral da Cana
further attempted 20 check the advance
of the troops by calling for rre-enforcements
OF 100 men from the island Of Conceiao,
and by sending armed launches from the
cruiser Liberdade, close To the shore of
the mainland. These efforts stopped the
advance. and caused heavy losses TO the
government forces
Short OF Ammunition
Then their ammunition fell short, their
fire slackened and the opposition gained
ground. After several hours fighting
the troops were within half a mile of
Armacao and Admiral da Cana decided
TO withdraw his sailors, finding it inn
possible to remain there, on account Of the
overwhelming number OF the enemy.
The Lberdade's armed launches continued
70 hold the troops while the insurgents
embarked at Armacao, the Aquidaban
covering their retreat.
The Libsrdade's launches we're close to
Ponta da Areia and received the brunt
of the enemy's fire 1t was IL o'clock
before the last OF the insurgents EN-
barked, after spiking the government bat
terry Of heavy guns at Armacao.
Both sides Lost Heavily.
The insurgent loss was five officers and
10 men killed, and 20 officers and 40 men
wounded.
IL is impossible TO obtain correct re-
turns, but the government is supposed TO
have lost Is officers ard 80 men killed
and many wounded.
Admiral ds CANA has bullet wounds In
his neck and arm, but they are not dan
gerous. L myself. was slightly wounded
In the throat by manlicher bullet l
saw the first part of the action from the
island Of Conceicao and the latter portion
on board the Liberdade.
Both sides displayed bravery, but the
sailors were demorslized at the firing by
the large number Of the enemy and fred
widely. Still, the withdrawal was or
derly and without sign Of panic. The
government claims decisive victory, and
today sent 500 men to rs-enforcs the gar.
rison of Nictheroy.
Admiral de Mello, with the Republica,
Is now at Desterro.

LET The TRUTH OUT.

All that Ia wanted Is an opportunity to
bring before t he Committee on Elections
the evidence In relation to the elections
last April and the pernicious practices en-
gagged in by the Republ can managers and
boilers in the Second Ward and let the
committee say In It's report whether such
actions are to be countensnced in this
Slate, whether an attempt like this to de.
feat the very purpose and object OF th'
ballot reform law, is to be allowed in an
enlig ghtened community, where, by legis
lative enac ment, almost every guard has
been set around the ballot box that the
purity of he ballot might be preserved.
II is a matter OF vast importance to the
people OF this State whether the use of
"slips" Is right or wrong. II right, then
1t may as well be known and let all sides
use them. II wrong, then 1t ought to be
condemned and those who sit in the
House on account OF their use unseated.
1t matters little what a Justice Court may
have said In relation to the matter. The
sole question IL, Is 1t rlghtf lit is right,
the talk about the purity Of the ballot Is
a farce and a sham. For by 1t can be, and
at these elections was, carried out per-
feet system OF manipulation the votes as
was ever known. Nothing was too mean
for the healers to be engaged In. The
Democratic ticket must be defeated at
all hazards.
1t was accomplished by this method.
And no wonder that those who are guilty
OF the deception don't want the matter
rehashed before the party leaders. But
let the evidence come out, let the facts be
known and then let the committee say
what is the proper course to pursue.
1t isa question, moreover, that ought
to be brought out at this time that the
people may know who are responsible fol
the defeat Of the party last Spring. There
Ia but one side that Is right and that sid,
Is not headed by Alderman Smith. w,
don't propose TO belittle anybody. W,
only ask that the truth may be known
anc then have decided whether such
means will justify the end.

For some time past the excentric
valve of the city engine has been
causing a great deal of trouble to the
city engineer, as we'll as increasing
expense to the city in the way of OIL
and coal. 1t became evident that
new valve would have tc be secured,
which would necessitate an outlay Of
eighteen or twenty dollars. Engineer
Davis concluded to make one, which
he did, at a cost Of two dollars to the
city. 1t was fine piece of work, an
improvement on the original valve,
and works to perfection.

RESIST THE TEMPTER.
Endeavors to Lure Northwestern Far
mers to Tennessee.


CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., Special, Sept.
T.-Col. j. B. Killebrew, who repre-
sents the Nashville, Chattanooga s.
St. Louis Railway company, is at
present in South Dakota endeavoring
to induce farmers to abandon their
South Dakota homes and move to
Tennessee and northern Alabama.
No one can, of course, blame this cor
poratiOn for trying to induce people
to settle up the vacant lands in the
states mentioned that have remained
vacant for the last fifty years, and
much Of it since the time OF Andrew
Jackson. South Dakota farmers
should consider well what they are
doing before they make this change.
This advice would also apply to the
discontented farmers in Nebraska,
Iowa and Minnesota, who will in turn
be asked by the representative of the
railroad company now in this state
to desert their farms and go south.
Parties who have been over those por-
tions of Tennessee and Alabama to
which the new settlers are invited to
60, say that the land is very product
i've along the rivers and streams, but
much of this is liable to overflow and
ruin crops nearly every year. This
bottom land is high in price and gen.
orally not in reach of men with linn
tied means. The blutfy or hilly lands
in the states mentioned is cheap, and
always will be, as it is nearly valueless
the soil being a red and yellow clay,
which produces light crops with the
proper amount of dressing and fertil-
izing. About seven years ago, SO W..
II. La Toilette of this city states,
Rev. William Jacka and K. W. Nc
| Iptosh, of Aurora county, this state,
sold their farms, and, with their fam
| lilies consisting of several grown sOns)
moved to Tennessee. About three
years afterward Rev. Jacka returned
to Aurora county to close up some
of his matters, and in conversation
with Mr.. La Toilette, stated that he
made the mistake of his life when he
left South Dakota and went TO Ten
nessee, as he took about $1,000 with
him, and during the three years had
expended nearly the entire amount
and was going to leave that state for
Colorado in company with Mr.. McIn-
tosh. While the farmers of this and
surrounding states have had very poor
crops during the past season or two,
:hcy are today in much better condi-
tion than their brethren in the south
and east. With sufficient moisture
the soil in the northwest cannot be
equalled in the world. by remaining
where they now are the farmers will
in time realize that they were fortu-
nate in having done so.

Military inspection.

On Wednesday occurred the ann ua
inspection of the First Regiment
band, company G, Second battalion,
and companies A and b Of the Fourth
battalion. The fair grounds had been
chosen as the field for operations and
it was made one OF the features of the
first day of the fair.
The day was nearly perfect, though
a trifle warm for this time Of year,
and everything passed off pleasantly
and with credit to the boys in blue.
The 4th battalion did themselves
proud and company G, though depict
ed in numbers, made good showing.
Taken all together the inspection was
very creditable indeed. Considerable
praise is due Lieutenant Frost and
the officers of the 4th battalion for
the splendid condition of their com
mand, considering the new material
and short time they had to get it
together. In August the battalion
was In fine condition and that would
have been the time for inspection in
order to have given the Lieutenant
the credit he really deserves.
The troops wee inspected by Gen.
Jeffers, of Sioux Falls, who is the in
spector general of the South Dakota
militia. Col. Thos. III. Ruth, com
mander of the regiment, was present
| in full uniform, as were also, by invi'
tation, Col. Rogers, of Sioux Falls
assistant inspector general: Col
butcher, of the governors staff; Maj
Fuller, De Smet, commander I'd bat
TALON; Capt. Sherwood, De Smet, ad'
jutant lst regiment; Capt. Spragle
company B, Sioux Falls.
The colors of the 4th battalion
which were last year won by company
B were upon this occasion awarded tt
company A by very close marking.
The music by the First Regiment
band was up to it's usual standard an6
the squad that handled the field
piece i'm firing the salute thoroughly
understood their work. In fact every
! thing passed off very smoothly indeed

The absence of the Agricultural
College exhibit proper at the State
Fair is another evidence of the frict-
ion attending the management of that
unfortunate institution. The faculty,
so it is stated, dare not move the ex-
hibit without the sanction of the re-
gents, and for some reason or other
the sanction of the regents could not
be obtained. One of the duties de-
voIving upon the next Legislature is
to give the college good shaking up
from top to bottom.-Abe berdeen Daily
News.
If there is one thing needed more
than another in our state educational
institutions it is good shaking up
every two years by the legislature.
BY all means give 'em another! We
haven't had school fight for as much
as a year. Try it on all of 'em this
trip, the more the merrier.
