]. P. Baden, the most extensive and
well-tO-do business man of Winfield, has
written the following letter to superin-
tendent Webb McNall:
II desire to express to you my un-
qualified appreciation and approval Of
the methods adopted and results OBJ
tanned by your department under the
policy of the present administration.
Your steadfast and answering devotion
to the interests of the people has driven
out of the State those insurance COM
panies which collected premiums but
failed to settle losses, and the suppress
sion of the Clarkson rate bureau has
placed the best companies in fair COM
petition for insurance business through
out the State, the net result being not
only radical Improvement in the char
acter Of the companies doing the under
writing business, and a reduction in
rates amounting in many cases to so
per cent. below the ClarksOn rates here
tofOre in force, but has also given the
patrons Of insurance a confidence in
speedy and equitable settlement Of
losses.
appreciate the fact that the benefits
which have accrued to the people OF the
State through the administration Of
your office, have been won in strug-
gle where the odds seemed greatly
against you, and not only congratulate
you personally upon the success you
have won, but 1 also congratulate the
people OF the State that their interests

ANOTHER ISLAND CAPTURED.

Manila, July 9, via Hong Kong, July
1.-THE insurgents on Wednesday, July
6, reported that the German boat Irene
in Subig bay refused to permit them to
attack the Spaniards on Grande island.
Rear Admiral Dewey promptly dis
patched the Raleigh and Concord to In
Vestlgate the matter. On entering Subig
bay the Raleigh opened fire on the forts,
WhereupOn the Irene slipped her cable
and steamed out by the other channel.
The cruisers shelled the principal
points on the island, destroying the
earthwOrks and other Notifications and
laying the torpedo station in ruins. They
then sent out launch with a message
demanding surrender There was no
response and the Raleigh finally sent
a six-inch she'll through the command
er's house. The white flag was instant
ly run up on the ruins OF the earthworks.
A landing party demanded absolute
surrender. The Spanish colonel, Rio,
realizing his hopeless position, made
submission and gave up his sword. The
500 men comprising the garrison were
made prisoners and their rifles taken
from them. Forty thousand rounds Of
ammunition and one HOtchkiss gun
were also captured. This victory gives
the Americans control Of Subig bay.
The Spanish were endeavoring to pro-
tect 1t with submarine mines and to
make 1t ready for occupation Of the
Spanish feet supposed to be on its way
from Spain.
Admiral Dewey's possession Of Subig
bay defeats Germanys plans to inter-
fere in the Philippines.
On returning to Manila the Irene ex-
planned that she interfered Gin the cause
of humanity" and offered to hand over
to the Americans the refugees she had
on board. Admiral Dewey refused to
accept them.
Governor General August has issued
a proclamation promising to grant au-
tonOmy to the islands and offering the
insurgents inducements to join the
Spanish forces. General Agulnaldo, the
insurgent leader, In reply said that the
oYertures Of the Spanish commander
came too late

Mo More Kansas Troops Now,

The colored people have been quite
anxious to have the two battalions,
which have been recruited, increased to
full regiment. This would give Kan
sas an additional battalion AS the mat

department the Governor sent out the
following telegram:

Hon. r. A. Alger, Secretary of War,
Washington, d. c.:
The recruiting of the two battalions
of Kansas troops is now completed.
They will be mustered into the service
Of the United States this week. In view
cf the fact that these two battalions are
made up of colored men, believe that
it would be for the good Of the service
and a just recognition Of their rights
to give them q full regiment. / there

Sagasta Cabinet Resigns.

London, July 12.-The Madrid corres-
pondent of the Times, says:
Senior Sagasta went to the palace and
rendered his resignation and that Of
the cabinet. 1t is said he advised the
Queen Regent to appoint q new cabinet
largely consisting OF the military ele-
ment, which would not necessarily mean
the adoption of a warlike policy, but
probably the reverse.
1t is generally expected that the res
ignation will be accepted, but the re-
suit may possibly be merely a partial
reconstruction Of the cabinet. The min
listers are now in council, and Senior Sa-
gasta has doubtless communicated to
them an account of his audience with
the Queen Regent.

have been thus ably conserved and pro-
tected.


The war inaugurated against the ex-
press companies for refusing to pay the
war revenue tax on receipts for goods
to be transported has been begun by the
arrest Of G. w. Traver, receipt clerk Of
the Wells-Fargo Co. at Topeka. The
complaint was sworn to by Geo. w.
Crane, and United States District Attor-
ney Lambert will prosecute. Mr.. Traver
was taken before the United States Com
missioner and he gave bond to appear
at preliminary hearing. The suit Is
brought to test the question of whether
the express companies shall pay the tax.
Similar suits will be begun against sew
eral other agents of this and other COM
panies. This fight started in Kansas by
the State officers refusing to pay the tax
and sending all packages either by mail
or freight.

Fake Peace News From rladrld.

been made by this government:
Madrid, July 12-It is asserted that
the United States makes the following
demands as conditions of peace:

Porto Rico, with a port in the Canaries.
Second-An indemnity of 48,0O0,0OO
pounds (about $240,0O0,0O0.)
Third-The retention OF the Philip

France Offers Aid In Securing Peace

New York, July ia dispatch from
London says: Frances new foreign min
lister, M. Delcasse, has notified the Span
ish ambassador at Paris, Senor Leon
Castilli, that the French government is
ready to tender the good offices of the
French ambassador at Washington in
opening negotiations for peace if the
Madrid government will permit 1t to
do SO.
The proposition, first suggested by
Austria and France, Of intercession at
Washington by the British ambassadors
has been abandoned Premier Sagasta
informed the European powers through
Ambassador Castillo that the home diff
culties of the Spanish ministry would be
likely to be gravely increased II Great
Britain's aid were invoked because of
the hatred of England pervading Spain.

Criticism Of Volunteers Uncalled For.

Col. Hughes who is seriously disap-
pointed because he did not land q brig
adler generals commission, does not
approve Of the manner in which Gov
eTnor Leedy has equipped and officered
the Kansas volunteers. In an authori-
tative sort of a way he gives out the
information that the Twenty-frst Kan
sas has been brlgaded with half dozen
different regiments, all Of which have
gone to the front, but the Kansas boys,
because Of the inefficient and incompe-
tent officers, have always been left be-
hind. AS a matter Of fact the Twenty
first was originally put into a brigade
with the Eighth Massachusetts, and
Twelfth New York and 1t is still there.
Neither OF the other regiments have got
any nearer to the front than the Kansas
boys have.
AS to the incompetency Of the officers,
the following statement from Major
w. l.. Brown will be of interest: Ger
talnly the officers Of the Twenty-flrst
Kansas have some standing in the First
army corps. Lieut.. Col. MCCrum is de-
tailed as brigade inspector, Major Smith
is a member Of brigade court, w. L.
Brown inspector rifle practice, Lieut..
Schultz brigade commissary, DR.. Arm

THE WALLACE FISH LAW

From the Huntsville Mercury.
The bill introduced by Representative
Wallace for the protection of fish in the
Tennessee river and its Alabama tribu-
taries deserves the support of every men,
Der of the present legislature. 1t seeks to
abolish the use of seines, traps, nets and
explosive substances in the Tennessee river
and it's tributaries in Alabama.
There are a few men living along the
river who will oppose the law, but the
great body of citizens residing along the
banks of the Alabama tributaries to that
stream will insist upon its passage. 1t
is well known that traps and nets are laid
at the mouths of various creeks, and that
such custom has practically made it i'm
possible to catch string of fish with the
rod and line
Representative Wallace has made the
maximum fine for violating the proposed
law $25 and the maximum Imprisonment
three months, one-half the fine to go to
the informer and the other half to the
school fund in the county in which the Of
Tense occurs. This provision may be pop
ular and may assist in the passage of the
measure.

A Cattle Show.

The oil mills are revolutionizing the cat
tie trade, or rather evolutionizing 1t; In the
evolution a fair share of the great cattle
trade, which has built up Kansas City and
scores of other western towns, Is coming
east. And 1t is coming east to stay. 1t is
grazing In the summer time Is plenty and
cheap, and the oil mills supply the best and
cheapest cattle food in the world
Birmingham is now a cattle center of con-
thousand head being fattened here year;
but this city needs another oil MILL and a
great extension of it's cattle trade. On ac-
count OF it's shipping facilities and the in
creasing home demand, the chief city of the
state is pre-eminently the place where the
new trade should be centered and developed
and promoted.
To this end cattle show should be held
here each year-a show that will offer
handsome prizes for dairy cattle. fat cat
tie, big cattle all kinds, in short, of cattle.
Let the representative herds from other
states come in. Do all that can be done to
promote the raising of cattle In Alabama
Take steps to make Birmingham the center
of the gulf trade in cattle. Make 1t head
quarters for the Cuban trade in particular.
Get ready to drive out of the south the en-
balmed-beef trade of Kansas City and
Chicago. The driving away of Alabama
cattle to be returned in cans from those
western cities has gone on long enough. Let
us stop it by having big cattle show each
year, which will be an object lesson to the
farmers, showing them what has been
complished in the state, and also what re-
mains to be accomplished.

THE DIsPENsARY SYSTEM

From the Sheffield Standard.
Now that the question as to a constitu-
tional convention is settled, our law
makers can give their minds to the Dis
pensary." There has not been and will
not be a more important matter presented
for their consideration. AS far as our OBJ
servation has extended, only two papers
in the state have pronounced against the
Dispensary. And those two, the Huntsville
Mercury and the Birmingham News, did
not pretend to answer the arguments in
its favor The arguments are unanswer-
able In no possible way can the common
wealth be harmed by the adoption of the
South Carolina plan. In various ways the
people would be greatly benefited. 1t
would decrease crime 1t would increase
business. 1t would lessen largely the states
expenses. 1t would bring money into the
public treasury. 1t would decrease taxa
ton. 1t would promote prosperity.

ABOUT THE GRIP.
How to Tell When You Have 1t and What
to Do About 1t.

From the New York Journal.
What are the premonitory symptoms of
grip?
Distinct chill or chilly sensations, fol-
lowed by an elevation of temperature from
101 to 103 Fahrenheit; pain in the head,
headache, pain in the limbs and back,
aching all over the body mental depres-
sion, loss of appetite and muscular weak
ness. often accompanied by a hard cough
with little expectoration.
How may one be sure that it is real
grip that has attacked him?
The continuance of these symptoms with
cut local inf1ammations to account for
them practically assures the nature of the
disease.
What should one take to neutralize the
attack?
Consult a good physician at once. Diff
ferent cases require different treatment.
There is no specific for grip
How may one tell whether the attack
is severe enough to make 1t necessary 10
go to bed, or only to stay indoors?
Ask the advice Of your physician before
venturing out.
What will be the symptoms when 1t is
safe for one who has the grip to venture
out again?
Return of appetite, freedom from fever
and pain, relief from mental depression,
general return of normal conditions
