A New South Wales country school

in compound proportion for home work
which happened to include the circum-
stance of ''men working ten hours a

of exercises found Jim's sum unat
tempted and the following letter in

We publish today letter re-
ceived from the Colorado Volun-
teers' Relativesi Union, setting
forth proposition whereby the
hearts of our boys at Manila may be
made glad on Thanksgiving Day.
The union deserves credit for
the complete and systematic plans
which they have prepared for sup
plying the good things, and no
doubt there will be very general
response on the part of "the folks

The Florence daily tribune., 1898-09-28

The recent disclosures in the
noted Dreyfus case have stirred
the conscience of the French peo-
pie, and popular feeling, which all
through the trial and subsequent
to the Imprisonment of the noted
artillery officer sustained the gov
ernment, has been drifting strong
ly toward the apparently wronged
man, as forgeries and other dis
honest methods and irregularities
of the trial came to light.
Captain Dreyfus was convicted
and sentenced upon the charge of
selling state secrets to the German
war department. The court mar
tial was held in secret, and it is
alleged that documents which the
accused man never saw were pro-
duced in court in order to inhu-
ence the verdict rendered. Friends
of Dreyfus plead that false evi
dence had been introduced, but the
government refused to reopen the
case. Men who dared say that
Dreyfus was unjustly punished
were declared to be traitors, and
Monsieur Zola and Col, Piquart,
his staunchest defenders, were
thrown into prison.
Through the confession of Col
Henry it now appears that at least
one forged document was used to
his detriment in the matter, and
while that alone does not prove
the innocence of the condemned
man, so much influence has been
brought to bear upon the French
ministry that revision of the case
has been ordered, and the whole
truth may yet appear.

About Fremont County.

We are today in receipt of a
copy of the report of the State Bu-
reau of Mines, very full and COM
prehensive compilation of facts in
regard to the states mineral re-
sources and development. The
report devotes three full pages to
Fremont county, and among the
other good things it says for us we
quote the following:
The county is richly endowed
with natural resources, and it has
at all times been an important fac
tor in the states advance. Flor
ence and Canon City are the lead
ing cities and commercial. centres.
The seat of government is located
at Canon. This city occupies a
valley at the mouth of the Grand
canon, and is noted for its horti-
cultural products and genial eli
mate"
Fremont county enters the year
1898 under the most favorable aus
pices of its history. All the varied
resources were drawn upon during
1897 in excess of any previous
year. More men found employ
ment and more new enterprises
destined to affect the whole stat e
were launched"

Train Robbers Favorite Field.

The robbery of the express car on the south bound Pittsburg & Gulf pass enger train. as reported in the Star last week occurred withir the limits of Kansas City. in the neigh borhood made notorious in recent years by the many successful train rohberies com mitted and as is customary. the high waymen escaped with their booty.
 As the train was starting from the station, two men pushed open the door of the express car, which the messenger, F.. M. Hyden, was just in the act of locking, covered him with revolvers, tied him with cords and threw him in the corner of the car, kicking him Tn the head and face and bruising him up generally during the operation, They then deliberately tore open and footed packages of ex- press matter and when satisfied drop ped off of the train when it stopped at a railroad crossing. The mess enger was soon after discovered by the train men and word telegraphed to Kansas City of the robbery, and police and detectives were soon carrying out fruitless search for the criminals. Two men have been arrested. but re- leased as not the ones wanted
 The WellsFargo Express Company claims the loss was trifling.

Among the K. C. P. & d. Officials.

Since the first of the year there has been several changes made in the off cials of the Kansas City Pittsburg x Gulf railway. T. c. Sherwood, who has been superintendent of the north ern division has resigned and General Manager Robert Gillham will assume his duties. F. Mertsceimer has been changed from the position of general superintendent of the main line to the same office on the Northern Connect ing Railway. J. K. Merely has resigned his position of superintendent of the southern division of the main line and w. l.. Green, who has held the position of general superintendent of the Chicago Ham mond X Western Railway, will take Mir Morley's place.
 George NJ. Craig, general townsi te agent of the land department has been located permanently at Port Arthur and in the future will give his entire attention to that town instead of over seeing the business of all the towns along the Port Arthur Route.
The Mena weekly star., 1898-01-12

capita tax is arrived at by adding to the revenue received and paid out the sum of the deficiencies which MT
 Cleveland met by issuing bonds. 1t
 will be observed that the increase in
 taxation from ts40 to 1860 was very slight, amounting to but 60 cents
 in twenty years, while the increase in taxation from s90 to 1896 was Sl. 53
 or nearly three times as much in six years. The tremendous jump from S2 01 in 1860 to Ss 03 in 1870 is explained, of course by war necessities, and the gradual decent to S4. 75 Tn 1890 is ac- counted for by decreased demands up on the government in settlement of the war debts. Not so easy, however, will it be to account for the great in- crease between 1890 and 1895. Here we find the per capita taxation in creased something more than 30 per cent without any visable necessities demanding it, and at the same time the population increased 6, 900, 100 souls and thus swelled the grand total received at the treasury.
