TT rs Wrong.

TT rs VIZ ONG.
The Gazette believes that it will
be unfair to compel the people in
the additions to pay back licenses
and taxes. The members of the
Police Jury are all intelligent and
fair minded men, and we have no
doubt that when the matter is prop
erly laid before them, they will act
with the same fairness which has al
ways characterized their actions in
the past. 1t would be inflicting a
heavy burden on the people living
and doing business in the additions
if they were forced to pay the par
ish taxes and licenses for the years
1898, 1894 and 1895. Like people
in all sections of the country they
have suffered very much from the
general business depression, and
this is most critical period for
them as we'll as for others. TO
hold ones head above water to-
day, is as much as the most pros
porous can do, and few. are there
who can do more. The merchants
and liquor dealears in the additions
should not be compelled to pay the
back taxes and licenses, and should
not be made to suffer for somebody
else's mistake for which they can
not be held responsible.
DUDOUSSA rs CONVICTION:
Numa Dudoussat will 60 the
psnitentiary, the Supreme Court
having refused to grant him a new
trial. Dudoussat will be the first
from New Orleans. If it takes the
courts of the Crescent city as much
time to convict each of the bood
lers as it did to convict Dudoussat
very little can be expected in the
way of municipal reform. Dubious
sat is a. poor man and is said to be
ignorant and was an easy prey for
the trap laid by the notorious Do
minick O'Malley. There is no
doubt as to his guilt, and he
should be punished, but if
the more influential of the
boodlers are allowed to go unpun-
ished it will be an everlasting shame
to the officials OF New Orleans that
they have singled out an insignifi-
cant individual when others more
intelligent and more wealthy are
permitted to pursue their base and
corrupt avocation without even
being brought to trial. Let not this
be construed as defense of Du-
doussat for he has received nothing
but his just dues. He should have
been in the penitentiary long ago,
and while all will sympathize with
his unfortunate family, and regret
that he has placed himself in such
a sorry plight, every lover Of good
government will hail will pleasure
the decision of the Supreme Court
to expiate his crime. Let the good
work go on until every boodler in
New Orleans, irrespective of social
or financial standing, has joined
in the State penitentiary.
Let the juries speak. Let it be
known that bribery, committed by
the high or the low, is a crime pun
isaable by a term at hard labor.
Let it be known that the BRIDE taker
and the bribe-giver are no better, if
not worse, than the horse-rhief or
the defaulting cashier. Let the
crime of bribery be exposed in all
its horrors and the briber-giver be
pointed out as an enemy to society,
as dangerous as the highway man
and the burglar.

Wednesday evening. A large

pate in the event, the good house

was shot at twice by the exasper-

Winchester with neatness and
dispatch, Senator Landager
himself afterwards came on the
scene and was attacked by the
irate granger, who tried to put a
knife into the senator's portly
body and serve up sparerib. In
the end the act was repulsed and
the grain secured.

the great economic questions
that he will be called upon to help
settle the coming year. Every
body admits that something is
wrong somewhere. The Willmar
TRIBUNE dees not claim to be in
fallib]y right in it's views. But
it does present food for thought
to all. And it also stands out
spoken for the interest and rights
Of the common people of this
section. It is conceded to be the
ablest advocate of the agricultu-
raj industry in this part of Min
nesota: Nor is it Simply a mar
row party organ. It will stand
by any good, honest public SER
want, no matter to what party he
belongs. 1t advocates certain
principles that the editors be-
lieYe to be for the best 'of the
public in no uncertain sound.
But even those who see these
matters different must concede
this to be of real value as an edu
cational stimulant,, as compared
with papers that have no opin,

weathercocks blown hither and
thither as faction or interest
may dictate. 49,
We believe, friends, that the
character of the Willmar TR1-

FEVER AND CHOLERA.
Reports to the Marine Hospital Service as to the Two Dread Diseases in Cuba
 and Japan.

Washington, July 1.-The marine hos pital service today received full report from its representative in Cuba Dr. Caimnero. who, acting under instruc- tions from the department has made an examination of all the leading ports in the provinces of Puerto Principe and Santiago de Cuba. In Puerto Principe the capital of the first named province there are about five deaths daily from yellow fever. The military hospitals are crowded with cases, the disease be- ing prevalent in the most malignant form. The city is located near the cen tral part of Cuba, and has a population of 45.O00. The province is the scene of most of the fighting between the Span ish troops and the insurgents. and the marine hospital authorities look with some apprehension at the nature of the news.
 At Santiago de Cuba for the week ending June 29, the deaths numbered twenty-eight, but a number of cases were not reported. The death rate however, has increased in an alarming manner. Two deaths from the fever are reported from Gibara.
 The marine hospital service is in- . formed that during the week ended June 15, six cases and five deaths by chol- era are reported from Osaka and IIiogo Japan. During the same period no cases were reported from either Yoko- hama or Nagasaki, where sporadic cases had previously been found.

ANTI-CHRlSTIAN RIOTS.
Minister Denby's Report Indicates That the 0utrages Have Been Exaggerated.
 The Catholic Bishop Injured.

Washington, July 1.-The state depart ment has received from MT. Denby, the United States minister at Pekin. partic- ulars of the recent anti-Christian riots at Chingtu, the capital of the province Of Szohuan. The Catholic mission building dian missions were destroyed. No for eigner was injured except the Ca ,holic bishop, and he not seriously.
 At the time the report was written, June f. MT. Denby had received no ofIi- cial news of the occurrence. He says he knows of but one American who is at Chingtu. His name is Virgil c. Hart, and he is connected with the Canadian mission.
 Continuing. MT. Denby says: Strong measures have been taken by the govern ment of China to prevent the spread of this riotous spirit to the Yang Tse towns. Chingtu is situated on the river Min. It's population is supposed to approximate 1000 900. It has great wealth and po- litica1 importance, and as far back as the time of Marcopolo was noted for it's beauty. It is the home of a viceroy. The breaking out of a riot in such a city thoroughly indicates that the effect of the recent war has not been felt in the interior of China"
 In another dispatch MT. Denby says he has received from TSung Lii Yamen, or Chinese board of foreign affairs, an or der that the viceroy of Canton pay to the American Presbyterian mission at Yung Kong, in Kwangtung, the sum of $630 due for losses sustained by riot.

HEAVY INROAD ON STOCKS.
BUYERS ARE MORE WILLING TO COVER
Southern Product Taken up for Several Months Ahead-The Iron Trade Is Gen.
 eraIIy Encouraging.

Cleveland, O.. July 1.-The Iron Trade Review says today:
 A further heavy inroad on stocks of pig iron was made in June, according tn the Western Pig Iron association returns, while another month will show quite an increase in production. The re- cent assumptions have not yet told strongly on the column of active capacity. The fact, however, that under the late adviees, buyers of foundry iron are seemingly willing to make purchases beyond the time limits set by most producers would indicate belief that the advance has not yet spent itself, and that buyers are getting work in hand that makes them more willing to cover fully at current prices than they were to buy in 100 lots four months ago. The Easton, Pa, advance of close to $1 a ton, bringing Lehgh valley iron to basis of $12.50 for No. 2 X foundry, and gray forge to $11.50, was an index of natural conditions, the withdrawal of southern competition through the talk ing up of product for several months ahead and the engagement of the ca pacity of all eastern furnaces for from sixty to ninety days ahead.
 Bessemer iron. taking advantage of the weeks sales. is higher than in the nrecedlnE week. i 'itist1lt books 9f metal were sold in tho latter portion af last week at s12.35 in the valley A later. sale is reported at $13.50. Consumption is still plainly in excess of production, and the billet market is becoming more conspicuous by the absence of sales.
 The limitation of the output of nail mills in July will assist in preventing an acute situation in steel, and another factor more uncertain is the temporary stoppage of most of the rod, wire and nail producing capacity in Cleveland. A strike is on at one works and repair shut downs have closed others, but there is a possibility that they too, will be drawn into the strike.
 Small sales at s2050@s20.75 are re- ported from Pittsburg, but in the Cleve- land district there is no market on which to quote. In the east billets are firm at $22.50, Philadelphia. The week has brought no new announcements of higher prices in finished materials.

CORNELL IS CANDID.
TRINITY TRULY EARNED THE VICTORY
As to the Matter of the leander, the American Crew Acted According to Their
 Lights.

London. July 1.-The Cornell crew have addressed a letter to the press as fol- lows:
 Tn view of the discussion over the ac- tion of the Cornell crew in Tuesdays race we believe that the position of the Cornells in the matter should be defined. The umpire, as we interpret the rules of racing, has entire control of a race after it has been started, and to disregard his command is sufficient reason to disqual- fly a crew. On Tuesday the usual ques- ton, Are you ready?" was asked, and as no negative reply was heard by the um- pire from either crew the word "go' was given. Cornell started and Leander also drew away from the post. We soon dis covered that Leander had stopped row ing, but the umpire did not recall us, nor did he in any way indicate his desire to have us return. Had he done so we would have stopped at any point on the course. He followed us to the finish and awarded us the heat.
 Under the rules governing racing, as we understood them, had Cornell not rowed over the course we would have been liable to disqualification from entry into any subsequent heat and thereby debarred from further competition in the grand challenge cup contest. No one can regret the outcome of this lamentable a1dlr more than the members or the Cor nell crew. They certainly did not come to England to claim race from Leander or any other crew by default.
 The crew has never authorized any statement to the effect that Cornell would not consider proposition for another trial between Leander and ourselves. However, we did not feel at liberty to suggest contest until after the sub sequent heats had been decided. It cer- tainly would have been premature on the part of Cornell to take any action in the matter before the result of the subse- quent heat in which the Cornells were to row, since the Leanders would un- doubtedly not care to row us had we been defeated by another crew. So far as Cornell is concerned in connection with the grand challenge cup we acknowledge our defeat after hard race by Trinity Hall. We have no excuses to offer; we were fairly beaten, and we take this op- portunity to express our sincere thanks to the English public for the many cour- tesies extended to us during our five weeks sojourn in their country.

MRS. MOBILES WILL HANG.
The States Chain of Evidence Was fIawiess. She la, ghed After the Verdict Was
 Rendered.

Atlanta, Ca, July u.--A special to the Constitution from Jeffersonville, Ga, states that Mrs. William Mobiles and Gus Fambles were found guilty of mur- der today and sentenced to hang on August 16.
 Mary Fambles was sentenced to life imprisonment in the penitentiary.
 Derry Nobles was acquitted, and so was Danton Joynsr. negro, who was accused by Gus Fambles of having as- sisted him in the murder Three other negroes. who were arrested two weeks ago on suspicion, were not indicted. The jury was out only few minutes today. The state had brought out every detail of the murder from the beginning of the plot to the accomplishment and the burial of the body in the shallow grave.
 It was shown that the old man was re- buking his daughter, Derry. for immoral conduct She was defended by the mother. From this a quarrel resulted. The daughter and mother turned upon the father. Each offered to give s10 to have the old man killed. It was proved that old Mrs Mobiles enticed her husband to the crib to look for thief. and then when he stopped she struck him on the head and Fambles finished him.
 Mrs. Nobles who Is 50 yeras old, took the verdict and sentence with the utmost indifference. Within a few minutes after the sentence was pronounced she and her daughter. Derry, were laughing at some trivial matter.
