Pttsburg Dispatch Qnd. Rep).
OF course. this report is so manifestly
unfair and at variance with the testimony
taken that 1t is apt to be regarded as add
ing insult to injury. But it may serve its
practical purposes, namely, TO make regu-
lar the full payment of all meat contracts
and to give an official excuse for permit
ting Alger to remain at the head of de-
partment where his incompetence has been
several times demonstrated
The public has no immediate remedy for
its wounded dignity and may be accused
of treason" if it seeks relief in language
for its outraged feelings. It's d long lane,
however, that has no turning.

THAT ROTTEN REPORT.
A SICKENING AND SHAMEFUL
REPORT.

New York Times.
The Court of Inquiry on the beef charges
evidently felt constrained not to hurt Az
gers feelings and to follow the wishes OF
the President. Because of the first reason
it had to censure Gen. Miles. Because OF
the second it was careful not to censure
him hard enough to make him an incon-
venient pc it:cal -ssde. 1t is very shame
full report, an indecent and dissraceful re-
port. In some respects, also, L IS cow
ardly report. AS an evidence of the work
ing of the poison of Algerism in the army
this report will sicken the country

but ono quality 81 canned beef. This
was notoriously false, says 3 WASH
ington dispatch. for the Navy De
partment oficiaIs testified they were
allowed two distinct grades but they
insisted on getting the better kind,
the kind sold to the domestic trade
and purchasable in grocery stores, and
the kind presumably sold to German
trade. In refusing to admit that they
had cooked up special brew of can
ners,' for army use only, they gave
sible for the adoption of hostile
measure. The Beef Trust made an
other great mistake when it insisted
that refrigerated beef was not treated
with chemicals, and explained it's vast
use of boric and salicylic acids by
saying they were used in sausages and
pork products only. 1t is just such
products that Germany could utilize
and against which it proposes such
severe system of inspection"
Thus has the avaricious beef trust
overreached itself. Through it's effort
to grab a few more paltry dollars
than would honestly have come to it
had it supplied first class beef to the
troops, the Chicago concern stands to
lose large section of its foreign trade.
How can it ask foreign nations to
trust it when it would coin the blood
of our own soldiers into money?

their courage seemed to fail them,

refrained from shooting with
the exception of two companies Of
newly arrived men who replied until
they had suppressed q regiment Of

Of rebels seemed under better leader

deavoring to lead them to the attack,

A Modern Pocahontas.

Wahpeton Times: A bad affair &C.
Cured at the home of MIR. and Mrs.
Frank Busta near Lidgerwood, Tuesday
evening of this week wherein John Ko-
doun and his two brothers James and
Frank and Joe Kleinhemple and James
Lunday set upon a single man, John
Phillip, who was knocked down by one
of the above named, when the others set
upon him and would have killed him, it
is said, had not a young lady-a Miss
Factor, thrown herself upon the body of
the PROSTATE man and averted the blows
of clubs and stones. AS it is, Phillip has
seven severe cuts upon his head, the
skull broken in two or three places, not
to mention bruises on other parts of his
body. We believe the fight started over
the fact that the girl preferred the com
pany of the young man set upon in pref.
erence to another.

Bank Must Account.

1t is reported that the decision rem
dered by Judge Amidon has been re-
versed by Judge Caldwell of the United
States circuit court in the case of Amelia
Emmerling vs.. the First National bank
of Pembina and w. J. Kneeshaw as re-
ceivcr, giving the right to a new trial.
During the term of l.. Z. Booker as
president of the Pcmbina bank Mrs. EN-
merling, a widow resident of Walhalla,
deposited in the bank for collection and
otherwise notes and other securities
worth about $4,000, taking Mr.. Booker's
receipts therefor. The bank, which sub
s%equently failed, did not account to Mrs
Emmerling for her property, and the
lady brought suit to recover The bank
people claimed that Mr.. Booker HAD re-
ceipted for the papers as an individual
and not as president of the bank, and
that they, therefore, were not liable.
The case was tried in Grand Forks in
the federal court before Judge Amidon,
who decided in favor of the bank.
