EXPERIENCE OF OUR TROOPS.


 modern times does justice to the vivid force of the natural features on the islands where our troops will soon be in complete occupation. Humboldt described the gorgeous scenes laid be- fore his eyes in South America, but probably he never beheld ranker vege- tation than that which surrounds San tiago and abounds in the Philippines. The fertilizing power of nature ir those regions is so intense that, as one correspondent in Cuba has stated, che trampled upon by the advance of the army one day have become by the next, when the rest of the troops move forward, a trail of fermenting poison. of which both the sight and the smell are offensive. The earth is alive with land crabs, which in moving about rattle, as some descriptions assert. against hard substances like dead mems bones. The sun makes one giddy it is so bright and hot, CT the torrential rains change this effect to a spell of feverish shivering. It is fitting that these strange experiences of our troops should be borne in mind. The coun- try should realize what une brave fel- lows with Shafter and Dewey are uD dergoing. The dangers are not of a kind to make the soldiers heart sick. for Anglo-Saxons get along very well in the tropics But the novel experi- ence must be more or less enervating.

Liquor Case Decided.

The supreme court has rendered a de-
cision in the suit Of Oswald G. Co., liquor
dealers & Minneapolis, againstP Moran,
a formor saloon keeper Of jamestown.
The decision reyerses that given by
Judge Glaspell in favor of Moran. The
suit involves the payment Of about S..
COO, which is claimed to be due on q
mortgage given by Moran to Oswald &
Co.
In tho trial before the district court,
Moran brought counter claim against
the liquor company foran amount which
would offset tho claim Of Oswald & Co.
alleging that he had a right to demand
the return Of the money owing to a law
OF the state which says that any pur;
chaser Of; liquor may demand and re:
ceive the return Of allmoney paid within
the state for Intoxicating liquors bought
since the prohibition law took effect
The lower court ruled that this was a
sufficient answer to the complaint 81
Oswald & Co., and rendered a decision
in favor Of the defendants; on those
grounds, The decision Of the supreme
court states that tho bringing Of q
counter claim does not constitute a de,
tense.
The decision does not affect the con.

Inasmuch as the 500 road will build
into Bismarck in the spring, and is al
ready in the neighborhood, the following
from the Foster County Independent
is Of interests showing how the road
helps the small towns: 1.-THE first party
of 500 engineers came here in the dead
of winter. Without any extra ado, they
located their road, and went on the. next
summer and graded and constructed the
same. They settled with and satisfied
every man whose land they put their
road through, and with the exception OF
u few, had no trouble of any kind, be-
cause it was a God-send to Foster county
and Darlington in particular. What was
Darlington previous to 1891? There was
one store only, with the same proportion
of trades, ETC., represented. Take a
look along Main street now;
where then We're only a few
tumble-down shacks, with all the bal
ance empty lets, grown up with weeds
and filed with rubbish, and you will find
every lot with a good business house,
having a large and prosperous trade. All
this enterprise took place after the 500
road was built. Besides it is a well
known fact the 500 had no lands, neither
had it any interest in such, but on the
other hand is the connecting link of n
America

The constitutional amendment appears

always light.
Fargo Forum: The republicans have
closed the state headquarters and Chair
man Robinson, Secretary Jewell and AS
sistant Secretary Hamilton have re-
turned to their homes. These gentlemen
have every reason to feel proud of the
result. The large republican majority is
a result of the mastery manner in which
the campaign was conducted. Speakers
were sent out and every effort made to
get the voters to the polls that would
have been done had the battle been
thought close. All three gentlemen arc
experienced politicians and were able to
size up the situation as it really existed.
The large republican majority in the leg
%islature is the cTowning feature of the
campaign.

CHINA'S AWAKENING.
An Organization Forming to Pre-
serve the Country.

Correspondence of Associated Press)
Shanghai, China, May 12.-After the
China-JapaneSe war several reform
clubs were projected by influential Chi
nese looking toward the renovation of
Chinese politics. One of these societies
was gathering great power when it
OvershOt the mark and was summary
annihilated by the throne.
At the present date a fOrmida BILE or
ganizatiOn of progressive Chinese is be-
ing formed throughout the empire 1t
branches in each city and town. In one
sense it is progressive and in another
it is retrogressive. The correspondent
has reliable information from most
prominent sources that the organiza-
ton has the patronage of the most
prominent men in the New China. The
hopeful feature about this patriotic as
ISOLATION, is that its cardinal prinSIole
is the preservation of the empire. Pat
riOtism has been almost defunct for
years and this is an attempt to rouse
the people. The reactionary feature of
the movement is its hatred of all things
foreign.
The new organization was launched
by the 10 900 Literati assem- bled recent
ly at Pekin for the examination of the
doctors of degree.
There are so articles and 25 bylaws
for the organization and the preamble
is as follows:
This patriotic club is formed for the
defense of the empire, in view of the
fact that our territory is daily sliced
away, the powers OF the government
daily circumscribed and the people
more and more oppressed etc
They are to protect the territory, the
people and the religion"
Each local club is to become the CEN
ter of a system of preaching
This idea is copied bodily from the
methods of the missionaries in spread
ing Christianity. 1t is stipulated that
the Literati at each point shall speak
from texts relating to the preserva-
ton of the state, the religion, the peo-
ple and the race

THAT is a mistake" said Judge Hor-
ton. the fifteen acres in South Topeka
will be used for the yards and all
trains will be made up there. This part
of town will never become the yards. 3"
The civil engineer of the road will be
here in a few days and the action of the
council will be postponed until that
time.
Councilman Drew when asked for his
opinion said: I am not ready to give
my opinion yet. 1 shall give it to the
council first"
Councilman A. P. Benson said-"I
think that if the road comes in here
with a switch they should buy the prop
erty they damage or pay heavy dam
ages
Councilman Roundtree said-'I think
the property owners should be allowed
damages"
Councilman Dickinson said-'I think
the road should buy the property that
is damaged
Judge Horton said-"The road is
ready to pay any damages allowed by
the courts for property that is injured
but some people here who are objecting
will in no way have their property
damaged''

NEW MO. PAC. DEPOT.
Objections Made by Property Owners
to Building New Track.

Mr.. c. J. Drew, chairman, and coun-
ciImen Fred Roundtree, A. P. Benson
and ]. A. Dickerson, together with City
citizens this morning who objected to
the proposed switch being put in by the
Missouri Pacific railroad from point
$50 feet south of Seventh street leading
into their ground extending from Sew
enth to Fifth streets and from Adams
street west to the alley. The road was
represented by J. H. Horton who said
What the Missouri Pacific wishes to
do is to build a new passenger and
freight depot at Fifth and Adams
streets and to have a switch from the
main line start at a point $50 feet south
of Seventh street on Adams and go in
q northwest direction and enter their
property at the southeast corner. From
there the track will run to the new de-
pot. This new depot is proposed be-
cause the merchants of Topeka who are
heavy shippers over the Missouri Pa
cific refuse to go through the muddy
roads during the spring and winter to
the freight depot in South Topeka.
When the Is acres in South Topeka
were taken by the road from the own
ers it was agreed that the company
should maintain two depots there. In
order to build this proposed depot up
town the road paid the sum of 5000
for the Is acres and in that way OBJ
tanned the right to move the depOts."
The committee of property owners
living near the tracks and composed of
O w Blood, James Carnahan, ]. S.
Stearns, J. L. Grice, J. c. LangstOn
and several ladies, all strongly objected
to the proposed switch.
1t Will ruin our property" said o.
W. Blood. IF this switch is put in it

switching yard and we will have cars
