The violent thunder storms which
have been OF almost daily and nightly
occurance in this locality for the past
week eliminated by hitting W. H. Wy.

The lightning also jumped from the
chimney to the main part, Knocked eff a
corner, then from the tin ewes ond spout

blinded with SCOT. Happily no ono was
iojured. The house Is fully insured.

Muck Of the war news these days isn't
war news at all; it's all about peace.

Gov. Lee raised $ll COO from the banks
Of tho state to pay the expenses Of fitting
out and caring for the First Dakota
Regiment for thirty days or until the
federal government became responsible.
He recently discovered that it would re-
quire $4,000 more to pay up all the bills
created and the banks who have the
state money on deposit declined to sup
ply the amount. The governor at once
borrowed 5000 on his own account at
Vermillion and forwarded it to the state
treasurer to finish paying up the bills.

1t keeps Mckinley and his cabinet
busy figuring out what to do with Cuba
and the PHILIPPINES after Mr.. Don has
his walking papers. It's thought that
1t will require $4,000 soldiers in Cuba to
maintain order until satisfactory gov
ernment can be brought about. The
Cubans are utterly worthless and ire
sponsible. The condition is even worse
in the PHILIPPINES and it's going to be a
harder job to let go Of them than to
sieze them. 1t seems to be the opinion
of the administration that the Phillip
ines are too much Of job for ns to
handle. Dewey says that it will take
10000 men to subdue the insurgents
who are bent on making it as hot fol
the United States as they have fol
Spain.

It'll a curious instance OF the irony of
history that at the close Of the first great
naval battle between the United States
and Spain, in the waters OF the new
world, there should have been left bat
tered and stranded upon the Cuban
coast. a great war vessel named in honor
Of the disc0verer whom Ferdinand and
Isabella sent out to find that very island
and this huge destined hemisphere. And
should 1t prove possible, as Commodore
Schley believes 1t is. to save the CrIsto-
bal Colon and to add her to the United
States navy as retributive namesake
of the sunken Maine, the coincidence
would be doubly strange.

Is known to most of our readers, peace
overtures were made to this government
ny Spain through the French ambassa-
dor last week. The reply was made to
Spain Monday. In effect 1t is the aban-
donment of Cuba, Porto Rico and every
island in the West indias by Spain, tfe
cession Of Porto Rico to the United
States, a naval station at Manila and
possibly coaling station at some other
island owned by Spain. Last nights
papers stated that advices had been re-
ceived that Spain would accept the
terms. A commission is to be appointed
OF representatives OF the two govern
ments who will meet in London or Paris
to arrange terms of peace. It is not
known what will be- done about the
PHILIPPINES and this is one Of the points
to be determined by the peace commits
sion. II Spain accepts the ultimatum
laid down by this government an arma-
tice will be declared pending peace ne
gotiations by the commission but the
armies will remain in the field. It is
likely, however, that all troops in camp
at Chickamauga and in Florida, of the
volunteers. will be discharged. 1t is the
opinion OF naval and army officers that
the war is over, all except the ohouting.

The New York butter market-which
controls the country-has been very firm
all summer-unusually so-and for the
past few weeks there has been steady
advance in spite Of the efforts to break
it and conservative influences. Extra
creamery is now quoted at lS1s cents
against 10 cents last year. Usually
there is 9 bleak during the last of Aug
ust or early September, but it is not
looked for this year. The stiff price is
due partly to general healthy business
condition and largely to droughts in
nearly all the great dairying districts
q condition which happily has not pre-
vailed at any time this season in south
ern South Dakota. In fact feed in this
part OF the state never was so good and
the new creameries started this spring
have been fortunate in securing large
supply of milk. 1t appears to be South
Dakota year and particularly fruitful
one for Brule county, where the cream
industry and stock interests so largely
predominate. Our farmers were long
ago practically out Of debt and the man
with the cows is now making money.
This is bound to be the case for all time
to come in spite of any decline in the
price of cattle or butter which cannot
help but be temporary. Compared with
the whole the territory adapted to profit
able dairying is limited either by clim-
attic conditions or the value of land and
feed and the same is true in measure
OF stock raising. As has been pointed
out In these columns so many times,
butter can be produced in South Dakota
and put down on the New York market
for less money than any locality in the
United States. Competition becomes
ruinous only to those who try to compete
with u.s. The man with good herd of
mich COWS in Brule county has dead
cinch on livelihood ii he never raises a
bushel of grain, and the natural increase
means a snug profit, We are on the
right road at last and it will be we'll
with us if We keep it.

A RetaIiatory Roast,

One evening a short time ago two
Paris old bachelors referred in re-
cent date of the Republican, were
wandering on their bikes in quest of
something to brighten up their lone
ly lives.
While passing the Paris church
they heard a strange noise and they
Immediately proceeded to dismount
and investigate. After searching q
short time they discovered the noise
came from the interior of the church.
So they went to an open window and
it was nothing but the Paris prima
dona, rendering solo to small
audience. After this wonderful solo
she Immediately responded with but
very little encore.
But the bachelors made sneak for
one was all they could stand. OF
course the bachelors had no money,
but if the lady's christian brother
would pay his honest debts they
might have had front seat and been
duped as was the rest that payed
their quarters For we have it from
the best authority that aside from the
Cresco talent it was a mighty slim
affair. OLD BATCH.

Paris, Sept. On. Cavaignac, minis
ter for war, has resigned. The resigna7.
ton is due TO disagreement with his
colleagues, who desire a revision of the
Dreyfus case. The following is the let
ter sent to NJ. Brisson, premier and
president of the council.
IT have the honor to send you and beg
you to transmit to the president Of the
republic my resignation as minister of
war There exists disagreement between
us which, being prolonged would paralyze
the government at time when 1t most

combat revision of the case. l do not

Revision Sentiment Grows.
The public feeling ia running, If pos
sible, even higher. Day by day the tide
In favor of revision is setting strong.
The resignation of NJ. Cavaignac seems
to make revision assured A certain
feeling of impotence that no decisive
step has yet been taken is noticeable.
Such a complete upheaval of the Drey-
fus case has been made by NJ. Henrys
confession that this was probably In
evitable. NJ. Cavaignacs arrest of
Henry came like thunderbolt, but
when the public had recovered from the
first shock it naturally expected the
government to go forward on the only
honorable path- namely, revision Of

Howard County Notes.

That portion of the county known
as its northwest township forty years
ago; like most of the others in the
county was as wet as we'll filled
sponge, but now its dry enough for
kindling wood. Here, as elsewhere,
we find but few of the first settlers re.
naming, but their possessions re-
naming generally with their children.
From Chester to LIE Roy, of the first
settlers only Fayette Lincoln, A. d.
Combs and A. G.. Hubbard remain.
Luther and Lyman Palmerton, Gard
ner Howe and Mr.. Laws having gone
the way of all the earth. The Palmer
ton sons occupy the old homesteads
of their fathers and one of the daugh-
tiers Mrs. E. E. Persons is on farm
nearby and with whom we met with
good entertainment, in their pleasant
home. The Howe homestead is
owned and occupied by son. There
is in the township much need of ap-
plying all it's road money to the i'm
provement of its highways, many of
its roads in the most recently settled
parts of the town being exceedingly
rough. The store of A. j. Caward in
Leroy carries an elegant line of
goods in large quantities in all lines
and has good line of patrons.
A new bank building is going up
to be occupied by Mr.. Corbett; solid
br lex walls, two stories, the second
being fitted for offices. w. w. Sweet
has let the contract for large three
story brick hotel building to be sup
piled with steam heat throughout
Leroy is growing. Wentworth
Hayes carries an immense stock of
merchandise, has large trade and
makes low prices. Miss Lillian b.
Hayes, his daughter, is graduate of
the state Normal School at Winons
and of the Boston School of Oratory
and is an accomplished elocutionist,
whom we hope may give select
reading in Cresco between now and
the holidays.
Some of the best farms and first
settlements of Oakdale were along

farms of Col Prendergast, James
