WAR TAX ON BEER.
This Subject Discussed at a Secret
Meeting of Brewers

There was secret meeting of the brewers
of the State at the Grand Hotel yesterday
afternoon. Those in attendance refused TO
discuss the object of the meeting. but it
was pretty well understood that the pro-
posed war tax on beer was the subject for
discussion. The impression prevails that
as soon as the law is in force government
secret agents Will be sent around TO find
out how much beer is in store in the various
breweries

Governor Mount said last night that he
had heard nothing further with reference
to the efforts that had been made to induce
the President to give General Lew Wallace
a major generals commission. Press dis
patches from Washington indicate there is
considerable doubt of Gen. Wallaces APP
pointment because of his age. General Wal
lace is seventy-one years old and while the
President is a personal friend and warm
admrer of the general it is said he feels
that he would scarcely be warranted in put
ting General Wallace in the field at his age.

THE ARID LANDS.


Fifty-siX thousand acres mo. : of the
Cheyenne, says the Sun-Leader. They
were leased at ) cents per acre. ana TO
II person got more than $40 acres
This adds $4,000 more to the states
revenue and saves that much to the
taxpayers.
The democrats won an election here
a few years ago bowling against the
Carey Arid Land Bill "a bill to cede all
the arid land within its borders to the
state. and yet if this land had beer
given to the state, and it would have
been done only for the democrats, the
state would have derived a e
from it for all time to come which
would have paid II whole state debt
and paid all the expenses of our state
government.
But the democrats said, THE people
can't be trusted with it. The stock men
will gobble it all up" And so they
played into the hands of the great
stock corporations and by keeping 1t
out of the hands of the state enabled
them to m~onopolize and use it without
paying a cen for it, and so the great
mass Of the people get no benefit at all
from it.
This is a fair average specimen OF
democratic financial policy.

that a state had been born. had elected

Congress was disconnected and mott.
fed the applicants that the sheritf's
census was irregular and they must
wait ut least for an invitation before
they proceeded to sit at the federal ia
BILE. Upon second thought congress de-
cided to be courteous, and on June l
admitted Tennessee, nearly three months
after she had become n state by her own
action. This state, whose coming into
the Union was a little previous, was
the third state in the Union to provide

PROGRESS OF WORK IN CUBA.
American Officers Investigate Impor-
tant Rumors.

Havana, Oct. 4.-Lieutenants Wade
and Marsh have paid a visit to the
municipal authorities Of Foros, on
whose report of the fearful condition
of affairs there the United States COM
missioners cabled to Matanzas for
twenty ons OF the Comal raticns.
Mr.. Robert P. Porter, the United
States custom commissioner, left here
yesterday by the steamer Saratoga.
1t is expected that a joint session of
the military commissioners will be
held tomorrow.
Captain General Blanoo today issued
a decree granting to the volunteers of
Central and South America their dis
charge, to take effect after the ap-
preaching monthly review, and grant
ing them return passages to their
homes at the governments expense,
provided they leave Cuba at once.
"A decree has also been issued pro-
hibiting the confiscation of cattle 10y
all branches of the army, and by all
the irregular troops.
The auxiliary troops at Cardenas sur
rendered their arms to the military
governor on September 80. 1t is re-
ported that the headquarters of the Gu
ban insurgent government will be
moved within a fortnight to Varadro,
a seaside resort near Cardenas. 1t is
added that the first person to arriv.
there will be the former vice president
OF the Cuban republic, Senior Domingo
Mendez Capote.
The official register of births and
deaths for the city of Havana shows
that on October l there was no births
and fi~fty-three deaths, and that on
October 2 there were no births and
t~hirty-1ve deaths. The mortality at
Guinos is very great, and at Guira de
Melena. whose population only num-
bers 5000, there were 232 deaths dur
ing the month of September.
Work has been commenced ON sev-
eral sugar estates in the province of

the representatives Of this government
are receiving the hospitality and the

the assurances of my grateful appreci-
alton of your kind courtesies to the

President Faure, in replying, cour-
~teously expressed his appreciation of
the cordial sentiments uttered and
heartily reciprocated them.
President Faure said hat everything
possible would be done for the comfort
of the commissioners, and concluded
with saying:
AS THE name of Lafayette is held
dear in the United States, so is the
name of Washington revered in
France"
The president then added that he
would Immediately transmit directly to
President Mckinley his reply to the
latter's cordial message. The follow

Among all tn" pirates VINO lmvc fir.
ured in history lrrnnd or SOM 'hprr i.
one whose name stands prC-ciulHput III
America as the typical hero Of tho
dreaded black flag The name Of this
man will instantly come to the mind If
almost every reader. for when we speak
of pirates we usually think of Captain
Kidd.
In fact, however, Captain Kidd wa
not a typical pirate, for i'll man ways
he was different from the OF ordinary ma
rine freebooter. especially when we con-
slider him III relation to our own coun-
try. All other pirates who made them
selves notorious on our coast were
known as robbers, pillagcrs and ruth.
less destroyers of life and property. but
Captain kidd's fame was of another
kind. We do not think OF him as q
pirate who came to carry away the
property of American citizens, for near
Iy all the stories about him relate to his
arrival at different points on our shores
for the sole purpose of hiding the rich
treasures which he had collected in 9TH
er parts of the world.
This could o fail to make Captain
Kidd a most interesting pcrsonaca. and
the result has beef that he has been
lifted into the region of legendary ro-
nance There are t,;o Captain Kids

On the LIST of July the earth receives
8 per cent less heat from the sun than
1t does during a corresponding period
In the mouth Of January. But winter
does not occur then in the northern
hemisphere, because the sun runs high
in the sky and its rays fall upon the
earth more nearly vertically than six
months later, and. too. the day is much
longer than the night. SO that while

Father, asked Tommy, the other
day, why is it that the boy is said to
be the father of the man.
Mr.. Tompkins had given this
subject any thought, and was hardly
prepared to answer Offhand.
"Why-why," he said stumblingly,
Its SO because it is. | suppose
well, pop, since I'm your father,
I'm going to give you a ticket to the
circus and half Il crown besides. l al
ways said that if l was n father |
wouldn't be so stingy as the rest of
them are. Go in, pop, and have a good
time while you're young. l never had
any chance myself!'
Mr. Tompkins gazed in blank aston
ishment at Tommy. Slowly the signiti.
of the hint dawned upon him.
Producing q half sovereign. he said:
"Take it. Thomas. When you really
do become q father, l hope it won't be
your misfortune to have a son who is
smarter than yourself" London

Geography is not only one Of the
most interesting studies, but one Of the
most important as well. 1t is not OF
value to the student alone, but to every
man and woman who wishes to keep
IN touch with the happenings of the
great world about them. The news
from distant parts of the earth, which
is brought to the breakfast table every
morning, is much of it little better
than Greek to the person who is I'M
familiar with geography. In fact the
stirring vents OF the world compel
those who desire to lave the correct
knowledge of them TO be daily students
of this important branch Of education.
This truth is apparent to anyone who
has tried to follow the course of our
war with Spain. Before Admiral Dew
ey's victory how many people knew the
location Of Manila and the Philippine
islands? The Cape Verde islands,
where the Spanish fleet modified, and
the Dry Tortugas where our own fleet
collected, preparatory to the search
for Cervera and the bombardment Of
Santiago de Cuba, are now familiar
names.
During the past year w have had in
teresting news from Alaska, Armenia,
Japan, China, India, Greece and Tur-
key. In these troublous times, a
knowledge OF the geographical forma-
ton Of the countries OF the globe, their
colonies. and the location Of the chief
towns and rivers is indispensable to
one who would read his daily paper in
diligently.
Approaching the great usefulness of
accurate and clear maps in studying
the various phases OF the war, The Re-
publican has arranged with Rand, Nc
Nally & Co., of Chicago, for the new
Standard War Atlas. re Atlas con-
tains sixteen pages of the latest and
best war maps published, comprising
four double-page maps (21x2S inches)
Of the World, North America, Europe
and O~eeania, and seven full-page maps
14x21 inches) OF Cuba, the West In
dies, South America, China, Spain and
Portugal, Asia. Africa and the Philip
pine and Hawaiian islands. Enlarged
sections show ports Matanzas, Santi-
ago de Cuba, San Juan and C~ienfue-
COS; also Cardenas and Santa Clara
bays. They are beautifully printed on
heavy map paper, and bound in an at
tractive paper cover.
This atlas should not be COMPOUNDED
with the numerous cheap aliases sold
at the stores. 1t is entirely new, and
can be obtained only from The Re-
publican or its regular agents.
Every reader is recommended to
procure one at once, and thus be able
to watch the strategic movements OF
our army and navy from the vantage
point Of knowledge.
The Atlas will be given free with each
prepaid six months subscription to the
Daily Republican, or will be sold for
so cents per copy.
