GENERAL MILES REPORT.
1t Is Made Public by Secretary Alger-
Contains No Criticisms.

OOutHiub NO
WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-The report
of Major General Miles, commanding
the United States army, was made
public yesterday by Secretary Alger.
The keynote to the report is found in
one of the opening sentences, where it
is said: 1.-THE military operations
during the year have been extraordi-
nary, unusual and extensive" state
ment which is fully borne out by the
long recital of important events which
General Miles shows have made the
military history of the year 1893 the
most remarkable since the end of the
civil war.
There is an entire absence OF any
direct criticism, though certain SEN
fences in the report are italicised, in
an apparent desire to justify pre-
viously expressed plans of details of
the campaigns, and where it deals of
events, the document is largely made
up of quotation of official dispatches,
and contains nothing that had not
already been made public in General
Miles famous interview on his return
from Porto Rico. He declares that he
was in full charge of the army in
Cuba, and claims the credit for the
surrender of General Toral.
Generalizing upon results the report
adds: cit is gratifying to record that
during the war not single defeat
has been met and not prisoner, color,
gun or rifle has been captured by the
enemy. In this respect the war has
been most remarkable, and perhaps
unparalleled.
"Under all circumstances and in
spite of many most trying difficulties,
the troops have maintained the for
tunes of the American character and
the honor of their arms
General Miles closes his report with
some earnest recommendation for the
improvement of the military service.
He trusts the experience of the last
few months will be valuable to the
people and to the government. The
value of coast defenses, he says, has
been proven and the system should

favors the adoption of a stand
ard of strength for the army
to meet the country's growth and
suggests that it be one soldier to
every 1000 population, yielding
force of 62,579. While this force is
already provided for, unfortunately
the authorizing act requires the army
to be reduced to it's former inadequate
basis on the termination of the war;
General Miles, in conclusion, recon-
mends the authorization of an auXili-

Porto Rico and the Philippines to be

A CRIME AGAINST HEALTH,
The Use OF Alum In Food.


Recent Investigation shows that the
Stores are largely stocked with baking
powders which contain alum, the in
furious ingredient which the Iowa ana
Minnesota State Boards of Health have
so strongly condemned. England, Ger
many and France have laws prohibit
ing the use of alum in bread, and the
States of Minnesota and Wisconsin
forbid baking powder containing alum
to be put upon the market unless the
words this baking powder contains
alum" are printed upon the label OF
every package offered for sale. This
is the danger signal which the law
throws out for the protection of the
people. Yet many OF the makers o.
alum baking powders such as the
Calumet" while keeping away from
Minnesota and Wisconsin, have the
effrontery to offer their condemned
powders to consumers here. These
alum powders are frequently labeled
pure" best in the world" none so
good" or with some other equally mis-
leading catch phrase.
Below will be found a partial list OF
the baking powders sold in this market
that have been examined and found to
contain alum:

Third district. The Republicans will
control the next legislature.
The first returns received indicated
the election of the fusionists. Leedy
ran far ahead in all the cities in the
eastern half of the state, but the Pop
ulists failed to get their voters to the
polls in the country districts.
Taylor Riddle, chairman of the Pop
ulist committee, said at 2:15:
1T is not in the cards any more to
re-elect state administration in Kan
sas. If every man in Kansas had been
given farm as the result of Leedy's
term in office, they would have stayed
at home or gone to the polls and
worked against him" Mr. Riddle
estimates the total vote cast will not
exceed 275, 1000.
The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1898-11-18

exceed 275,000.
TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. 1l.-Completc
and official returns at Republican
headquarters from all counties in the
state give Stanley majority of 49,
2Os. Two years ago Leedy carried
sixty-four of the 1O5 counties. This
year he only carried twenty-three OF
the 1O5, and in those which he carried
his majorities were greatly reduced.
Leedy lost thirty-six counties this
year that he. carried in 1896. They
are: Anderson, Bourbon, Chase, COT
fey, Comanche, Elk, Franklin, Geary,
Grant, Greenwood, Hamilton, Jewell,
johnson, Kingman, Labette, Lyon,
Miami, Montgomery, Nemaha, Neosho,
Norton, Usage, Osborne, Ottawa,
Phillips, Rocks, Rush, Sheridan, Sher-
man, Stafford, Stevens, Sumner, Ire
90, Wilson and Woodson.
No returns as to the vote for eX-Sen-
ator PETER, Prohibition nominee, have
been received anywhere. In Topeka
he got POS votes. 1t is believed that
his total vote will not reach over 1000.
There were four district judges
elected. The Republicans got all of
them. In three instances Republicans
succeed Republicans and in one Re-
publican succeeds a Populist. w. l.
Stuart was elected judge in the Doni-
plran Nemaha- Brown district Judge
A. H. Skidmore succeeds himself in the
Cherokee Labette Montgomery dis
trict; Lee Monroe was reelected in
the Russell Ellis Treg o-Gove-Logan-
Wallace district.
The congressional returns are very
incomplete Republican committee
figures majority for Curtis in the First
of $500. Curtis carried every county
in the district, and reports, where
given, show him leading the state
ticket in almost every instance.
Bowersocl's plurality in the Second
district is figured at 1900. He lost
Franklin, but carried every other
county.
Kirkpatrick lost the Third by 600.

Reeder's plurality in the Sixth is
likely to reach 1900 and Longs in the

General joe Wheeler's admiration
for Colonel Roosevelt is unbounded.
Said he to New York reporter:
The great thing about the man is his
absolute integrity. Some men are hon
est in money matters and others care
full about their personal conduct.
Roosevelt is both. AS an army official
as we'll he was integrity itself. 1t is
creditable that the people of New York
want him for governor. He will be
president, for the people of the United
States want him. ! have said that to
him and it made him laugh. He is
active, clean-cut, above board, air.
He is abreast of the times in public
matters. He is born fighter, and
was shot at more times than any other
man in the United States army.

Prof. NJ. R. Andrews:
Dear Sir-I understand that Marion
Short is to appear in connection with
the Teachers Institute in a series of
recitations. 1t has been my privilege
to hear Miss Short on several different
occasions at Mountain Lake Park.
She has been on the program of that
Chautauqua for several years and
every year the enthusiasm over her
recitations grows. / have never
heard any reader or impersanator
whom | consider her equal. Her man
ner is charmingly simple, and there is
an utter absence of that stage tone
which sometimes so much mars elocu-
tionary entertainment. She is espec-
tally happy in her impersonation of
James Witcomb Riley, and of child
life.
/ congratulate the citizens of Mari
eta, as well as the teachers, that they
are to have the privilege of hearing
her Yours Truly,

What would Ben" Franklin, our
first postmaster general, think if he
were to see how our postal service is
making a war record nowadays?
With special offices in every army
camp, one at Manila, six or eight
thousand miles away, and another
with the army in Santiago de Cuba all
postal records bid fair to be broken.
