stantly bear in mind that his views
upon every subject and his fair ex-
preston at the polls, the primaries

which the company has nothing
whatever to do; but the company
rightfully demands that no officer
or employe shall accept any public
office or take such part in the
affairs of political organizations as
will either interfere with the per
formance OF his particular duties to
the company, or tend to place the
company in the false position Of

aggregate it would amount to .
considerable sum. At the meeting

General whee1ers BLUNT Question.


On our side all the preparations for
striking final triple blow at the
doomed city continued. On the other
side of the city the feet lay grimly
ready. Our men took their meals,
such as they were, in the trenches,
while those on relief were ordered to
be ready for general advance within
thirty minutes after the flag of truce
should go down. In our rear heavy
trains of artillery went numbering up
the hillside all the livelong day.
During the day General Miles arrived,

his authority to agree to general
surrender on behalf Of the Spanish
forces.
"Well, then, why don't you sur
render?" asked old Joe Wheeler. The
blunt question was translated to Gen
eral Toral. He hesitated minute,
then shrugged his shoulders with O
pitiful smile and said in a low voice:
