There is no doubt that at the
proper time the democrats of Bates
county will endorse the official acts
OF Governor Lon V. Stephens in no
Gnmistakable terms. His has been
a very trying position for the reason
that men who heretofore were high
IN the party councils saw fit to go
of after false gods, and consequent
iy have begun unable to have weight
with the administration and are try
ing very hard to discredit it. Gov.
Stephens has made clean admins
sration and no democrat 10 the state
need be ashamed of it.

EUROPE DEMANDS ANINvAsloN
Powers viii Have Ample Ground for
Protest if Not Done.

Washington, d. c., May 24.-Tht
exigencies OF the international situa
ton demand the early invasion Of
Cuba. Nearly three months have
passed since the declaration OF war.
The American army has not yet
landed on the island which il WAS
expected to control within four
weeks after hostilities were declared.
This condition Of affairs will have
to BE- changed soon or the powers
will have ample grounds for a for
NAL protest. To meet the situation
as il exists the administration is pre-.
pairing the first corps of the invad-
ing army. 1t may move in a few
days, perhaps hours, but it will move
of a certainty, for the president and
his advisors know that the matter is
already being discussed in diplomat
ic circles and that the United States
would be involved in numerous com
plications should it let the rainy
coma without having troops
in the island.
It is the intention to land at least
10000 regulars in Cuba this week.
If matters go as they are expected
to and Admiral Cervera will only
stay where the board OF stratgy says
be should, the invading army may be
swelled to 100000.

body upon their arrival. The official
announcement of this fact was made
at the war department today.
The transports bearing General Miles
and the volunteers are expected to ar
rive off New York next Tuesday. 1t
was suggested that the troops be Or
dered into camp somewhere in the vi
cinity of New York for a few days and
then signalize their departure for their
state camps by a parade through New
York City. The civil authorities of
New York canvassed the situation and
finally suggested that the troops be
encamped at Forest park, between
Brooklyn and Jamaica.
When Governor Voorhees, of New
Jersey arrived in Washington yester-
day he proposed to the war department
that the Porto Rico troops be placed
in camp at Sea Girt, the New Jersey
state grounds. He renewed this offer
today in a conference with Adjutant
General Corbin. He was informed that
it has been decided by the department
that the Porto Rican troops would not
be placed in camp at any point in the
east, but would be sent Immediately to
their state camps, preparatory to being
mustered out of the service. When
the transports arrive in New York
harbor they will be met by officers with
orders for the troops to proceed direct
ly from their ships to the trains. The
officers will have with them transpor-
tation for the entire command. 1t is
likely that the troops will be landed in
Jersey City, where, after being served
with a hot lunch, they will board the
cars, which will be in waiting, for
their homes.

Alone Among the Ministry In OPP
posing a Revision Of Case.


Paris, Sept. 3.-The Figaro. today, re-
ferring to the latest developments IN
the Dreyfus case. says:
Yesterdays consultations between
NJ BrissOn, president of the council
and minister of the interior; Cavaig-
nae. minister for war, and Sarrien,
minister of justice, did not result in
any solution of the problem. The min
listers are of the opinion that the gov
ernment will not take the initiative In
the matter of a revision of the Drey-
fus case, but will wait until the meet
ing of the chamber, unless Madame
Dreyfus presents a demand In legal
form"
The Matin says: NJ. Brisson and Sar-
rien are inclined to a revision on the
ground that in the opinion of high le-
sal officers of the ministry Of justice,
Lieutenant Colonel Henry'S forgery
forms a new element in the present
criminal code. While the question Is
not decided, IL is hoped that NJ Br1s-
son and Cavaignac will come to an
agreement

Colonel Henry did not commuit suicide
Figaro says that when the comInlS-
sary of police arrived at Mont Val
erien he asked for Colonel Henry
valise and the razor with which he
committed suicide. He was told they
had been sent to the ministry Of war
This extraordinary proceeding could
not fail to be commented upon here,
where respect TO legal formality is
carried to such superstitious extent
that the people would leave man
hanging rather than to pull him down
before the arrival of the police. Nat
uraIly enough, then, such detail as
the razor having been sent to the min
istry of war makes many people ask
why.

saws: This controversy has shown US
long ago to what depths certain in
dividuals can descend, so we are not
surprised to read that the suicide OF
Colonel Henry was perhaps murder.

followed ALMOST like day, and the

then no relief is expected
The highest point reached by the
thermometer today was at o'clock,

The humidity averaged 50 per cent.
In Brooklyn there were six deaths
