DIDN'T LAST LONG.
Formosan Rebel ion Was tho Shortest
Lived on Record.

LlVsu on hecOru.
The State Department at Washington has
received from Minister DENLY, at Pekins, a
dispatch dated June l3, concerning the late
Republic OF Formosa. He gives the transla-
ton OF the original declaration Of independ-
ence OF Formosa, and says that the 're-
public will go into history as the most short
lived Cover nment that ever existed.
The Japanese have already taken Kenling,
which IL only Is miles from the capital,
Tarpelfu. and order there will soon be re-
stored. Ex-Governor Tang was inaugural
ed on the Goth OF May. aud he and his cabi-
net have already left the island, aud Mlais-
ter DENLY says II Is questionable whether
the people are at all concerned at the change
OF the government OF the island and that the
movement for independence was organized
by the officials.
There were so, 900 Chinese troops In For
mosa,' says Mr.. DENLY. "1hey ARE all arm
ed, but will not light. Many of these braves
are now In Annoy lighting foreigners. The
forts az Healing were, rs Is usually the case
with Chinese forts, indefensibe In the rear
though they were very strong on the sea
side, and were provided with Armstrong,
Krupp and machine guns"
The Formosgn declaration recites that the
Japanese have afronted China by annexing
Formosa that the people are resolved TO die
before they will serve the enemy and have
determined In Council to convert FoImosa
into "A republican state, 1t Ii stated that fre-
quent conferences have been held with for
eign powers, who hold that the people OF
Formosa must establish their independence
before the powers will assist them.

General Master Workman Sovereign Is out
with an order to Knights Of Labor demand
ing that they boycott all national bank notes.
The dec ciaration II addressed to the X. OF l..
Farmers Alliance aud kindred bodies, and
holds that the national banks are rrspon-
sible for the destruction of the groenbacks,
and payment OF tho bonds in coin, the fund
ing acts, tho characterization OF silver, and all
corrupt financial legislation IN this country
for the past 80 years. They have boycotted

money that promised relief TO the debtor
class and prosperity TO the industrial class.
They are boycotters OF the most cruel kind.
boycott OF this kind will agitate the

doubtful free silver advocates
This boycott will precpitate the great con-
nict with the people on The one sidc and the
banks on the other, and the issue Will De rs
SHARPLY drawn as in the struggle Of Andrew
Jackson with the old United States Bank 90
years ago. IL will forcea plu,ocrat press and

ION and after September /, 1895 Let every
Knight of Labor aud every person whose love
Of justice is above the sordid interests OF the
tyrants, refuse to accept national bank notes
In payment OF any debt or obligation not
made necessary by the limited legal tender
qualities OF the notes.
