The strawboard trust Will have TO
make a defense before the Indiana leg
islature. About once a year the fac
tories empty their reservoirs into
streams on which the industries are
situated and kill all the fish in the
water The United States court has
been appealed to and has enjoined some
of the factories from polluting streams.
but other branches of the trust con-
tinue to empty poison into rivers, ano
the local officers of the law seem to be
powerless to prevent it. Only this
week the factory at Carthage emptied
its reservoir into Blue river and killed
millions of fish and interrupted the
spawning. The governor has taken
notice of the destruction of the fish and
announces that if he has any influence
with the coming legislature he will see
to it that law is passed that will stop
the pollution of running streams by
these factories.

ceeded Gen. Linares in command of
the Spanish forces in Santiago when
the latter was wounded, had declined
to surrender Internationally, and that
the bombardment of the town would
begin by the army and navy about
clock yesterday afternoon. The fact
that the bombardment was scheduled
by Shafter to begin so late in the day
created some comment. but no ex-
PLANTATION of it was offered. In an
swer to a question bearing upon that
point, Gen. COrbin said: Il have not
the slightest information as to the
reasons Gen Shafter had for begin.

people who are rich, idle and dissolute

it comes near enough to insanity to

Our American Policy.

The policy of this country regarding
foreign complications seems likely to
remain conservative. The Monroe doc

and prudence in official quarters will
restrain public opinion. The wisest

matte and malarious is to use Hostel,

 Our splendid army of marines, the finest, the most intelligent and the brayest in the world, manning as they do as fine a naval fleet as ever rode the waters, will have a chance to show their prowess and let none doubt they will acquit themselves with honor and crown our navy with a wreath of laurels.

 Whereas, The president of the United States has called upon the several states and territories for l25, eco volunteers for the United States army to enforce tbe demald made upon Spain to evacuate and surrender the island ofCubs, and
 Whereas, The governors of the several states and territories have made proclamation calling upon the people to fiji the assicned quotas, and
 Whereas, It has been found un- necessary for the governor of Arl- zoua to issue a proclamation calling for volunteers to i'll it's quota for the reason that it's quota has been more than filled without the neces- sity of issuing 8 proclamation, and
 Whereas, I have found 1t neces- sary to decline more than one thousand patriotic offers for enlist msn5, exclusive Of the entire National Guard and including a large number of tbe veterans from both sides in the late war, and
 Whereas, Arizona Is the first state or territory to have it's fall quota and fifteen per cent more sworaiato tie United States service. and
 Whereas, Said quota and fifteen per cent more have left for the front.
 Now, therefore. I, Myrou r. Nc. Cord, governor of Arizona. hereby issue the following address, which is something like one 1 should have issued had 1t been found necessary in order to secure the volunteers called for by the president from Arizona.
