STORY OF THE BATTLE.
Graphic Account OF tho Defeat OF th
Kballfa's Army.


Kba1lfa's Army.
OMDuRMAN, Opposite Khartonm, Nu-
bia. Sept. 2.-The sirdar, General Sir
Herbert Kitchener, with the kha1ifa's
black standard, captured during the
battle, entered Omdnrman, the capital
of Mahdiam, at 4 o'clock this afternoon
Mt the head Of thu Anglo.E Egy ptian col.
umn, after completely routing the Der
wishes, and dealing death blow to
Mahdism. Roughly, our losses were
200, while thousands Of the Dervishes
were killed or wounded.
Last night the Anglo Egyptian army
encamped ut Agaisa, eight miles from
Omdurman. The Dervishes were three
miles distant. At dawn today our cav.
airy, patrolling toward Omdurman,
discovered the enemy advancing to the
attack in battle array,
Chanting War Songs.
Their front consisted of infantry and
cavalry stretched out for three OF four
miles.
At 7:2O a. m. the enemy crowded the
ridges above the camp and advanced
steadily in enveloped form. At 1880
our artillery opened fire. which was
answered by the Dervish riiemen.
Their attack developed on our left;
and, in accordance with their tradi.
tional tactics, they swept down the
hillside, with the design of rushing our
flank. But tho withering fire, main.
tanned for Is minutes by all our line,
frustrated the attempt; and the Der.
wishes baked, swept toward our cen.

A finer body of men never assembled in
the capital city than the members of the
convention which occupied the body of
Tomlnson Hail. The galleries were filled
with an interested assemblage, including
many ladies. The hall had been filled some
time and both delegates and audience were
so expectant that it was scarcely necessary,
at $3.50 o'clock, for Chairman Hernly to say
"the convention will be in order"
The event of the afternoon was the adj
dress of Senator Fairbanks. The address
was an exhaustive review of the achieve
ments of the Republican party since the
Inauguration of President Mckinley. Topic
by topic, the senator took up work of the
President and his party and independent
supporters in Congress. 1t is a speech full
of information instead of rounded periods.
The Republican who reads it will feel that
he is justified in his political faith and will
be inspired to go forward with his party.
The larger Republican audience than the one
in Tomlinson Hall, the constituency of the
Journal, will read the senator's speech, as
sured that as much as any man in Con-
gress he expresses the aim of the Republic
an administration The speech of Senator
Fairbanks was just such an utterance as
a man occupying his position should make
at the present time-an argument and an
array of facts for a thoughtful and intel
ligent people, such as Americans should
always be and particularly should be at
the present time, when new and grave
questions press upon their attention.
The report of the platform committee
has been made public. 1t may be assumed
that it will be adopted. 1t appears to have
been prepared with much elaboration; it
certainly expresses Republican sentiment
and expresses it in a manner that any man
who can read comprehend. On the
money question the expression is emphatic.
The good work of the two Republican Leg
islatures and the Republican administra-
ton is Endorsed. 1t pledges the party to eff
forts to reform county and township gov
eminent, and to the pressing need of the
time, primary election law.
So auspiciously has the work of the Re-
publican state convention been begun that
1t may be safely predicted that it will be
completed to-day in a manner which will
meet the approval of the Republicans and
the friends of good government in Indiana.

WHY NOT A DAY OF JUBILEE.

1t is said that representatives of the Gu
ban Junto in this country will ask Presi-
dent Mckinley to include in the conditions
of peace the release by Spain of ali Cubans
imprisoned for political offenses, of whom
there are said to be about five hundred in
different Spanish colonies. Besides the SEN
timent on which the suggestion is based
there is an element of justice in it that APP
peals very strongly to the American mind.
Slaves cannot breathe in England" wrote
one of her poets long ago. 1t was a prin-
ciple long contended for by the opponents
of slavery in the United States, but never
fully established until the Republican party
came into power, that the moment a fugi-
tive slave stepped upon the soil of free
State he became a freeman. For a long
time now it has been an established prn-
States no kind of slavery can exist nor dep
rivation of personal liberty, except as pun
ishment for crime. Wherever the flag floats,
on land or sea or in the islands
of the sea, it means liberty to the
oppressed, to the slave, to the coolie la
borer. to the political prisoner, to all except
those regularly convicted of crime. This
doctrine must be enforced wherever the flag
goes. AS to the duty of enforcing it in
Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philippines, as
far as we have power, there can be no
doubt. The only question is as to the pro-
priety of making general demand on Spain
for the liberation of all Cubans imprisoned
for political reasons. Sentimentally it is
just demand. and logically ii is proper
one. AS the war was begun for the liberia
ton Of Cuba why not make the terms of
peace include the liberation of all Cubans
imprisoned or exiled for political offenses.
