ised 70 give q statement OF the result
Of his examination into the matter At
Q meeting Of the cabinet to be oon-
vened after the minister Of war should
have been appointed.
The ONCE Of war minister was offer
ed to Generals Zuriinden and Saussier
and declined by them, but subsequently
General Zurlinden yielded to the urg-
ings Of Premier Brisson.
After long conferences with the pre-
mier. n. Brisson. and the minister Of
Justice. n. Sarrien. General Zuriinden
was interviewed by a newspaper repre-
sentative. The general said that the
minister OF justice asked for the Drey-

him. he added. he would study TIE doc
uments carefully and inform himself
thoroughly regarding the case before
discussing II with the cabinet.
Opinions differ as to how the latest
developments effect the situation.
There Is q rumor that General Zuriin-
den. the new minister for war. will ad-
vocate q mere annulling Of the Drey-
fus judgment and sentence as safer
way out Of the imbroglio than a re-
trial involving all sorts Of awkward

that the senior vice commander In

OUR COUNTY FAIR.

The Fmcastle Herald has this timely
suggestion concerning the value of a
County Fair:
L. The Lexington Gazette of recent
date urges the farmers Of that county
to give their assistance to those who
are attempting to re-establish County
Fair for Rockbrdge, but refers to the
lack of interest the farmers are taking
in the scheme. The Gazette says:"The
very persons who above all others should
take an interest in this movement-the
farmers-are holding back. If they
could once realize the good that would
result to them with successful County
Fair, then surely every farmer in the
county would take an interest in this
matter and give it their financial sup
port" The farmers of Rockbridge are
evidently standing in their own light.
