OUTSIDE of the antl-Dreyfusard
press of Paris and anti-Semitic
papers elsewhere, the press of
Europe and America universally
condemns the decision in the Drey-
fus case. Even the press of Russia,
where the feeling is strong against
the Jews, joins in the denunciation,
and the German press is especially
severe. The suggestion that the
Paris Exposition be boycotted, as a
protest against this crime of France,
is generally approved.

Republicans argued very strongly that
the army beef scandal should not be ex-
posed rs 1t would hurt the sale of beef
and the price OF cattle. But cattle were
selling at $3.50 q hundred pounds on the
hoof in Chicago last week, the highest
price that has been paid in the month of
September since.1ss2. In that year the
number Of cattle in the country had
sunk as low az 23,22S0,OOO. according to
the government report, and the price had
climbed up to $3.50 per hundred pounds.
The government estimate this year
places the number at 2S,O00,OOO. but the
present demand is said to be entirely un-
precedented, and it is predicted that the
price may now mount as high as the
1882 high water mark. Yes, war raises
prices. We are all feeling that.

NEW PLAN E
War Department. Considering . Schema
for . Change In the Philippines.

War Department C~onsidering . Scheme
for q Change In the Philippines.
WASHINGTON. Sept. ga plan il
under consideration at the war depart.
ment to create an army division of the
Philippines and divide the division into
departments on a basis similar to that
in Cuba. The idea is to create four de-
partments in the Philippines, at least
three of them to be commanded by
major generals. The Philippines here
tofore have been known as the depart
ment of the Pacific. It is said that one
department of the proposed new divi.
sion will consist of General MacAr.
thurs command north of Manila, an.
other will be General Lawton's com.
mand south of Manila and q third will
be a new command to operate from
Lingayen or Dagupen. A fourth de.
partment probably will consist of troops
in the islands sccth of Manila, which
include the commands now at Iloilo,
Cebu and other points.
Scheme Not Fully Prepared.
The scheme has not yet taken such
definite form as tc determine the com.
mands of the division and departments.
There is little doubt. however, that
Generals Lawton and Macarthur will
remain where they now are, and prob
ably the command in the island south
will be under a brigadier general. An
other officer viii. have tc be selected for
the department in the far northern part
Of the leland. at the terminus Of the
Dagupen railroad The rlan is to give
each department commander all the
troops that can be successfully operated
and also insure sufficient garrisons for
all points taken. Protection to the
peaceable tribe is of the chief OBJ
jects sought, as representations made
to the war department indicate that
many of the ink abitants do not want to
6ght, and if unmolested and relieved
from fear of attack by the Tagals, will
assist in supporting the authority Of the
United States. and make it impossible
for the followers Of Aguinaldo to sub
sist.

The Herald from Washington says:
Acting Secretary Alien has received
this dispatch from Rear Admiral Wat
SON:
"Panay, Laning commanding, cap
tured steamer Mundaca. illicitly trad
ing. Marivales. Oman commanding,
captured steamer Taaleno aiding and
abetting insurgents. Taalenc will make
good gunboat, 100 tons. Will fit out
and man her."
The Panay is commanded by Ensign
Laning. who was previously attached
to the Monadnock. Lieutenant Joseph
W. Oman was transferred to the Mari
wales from the Helena. 1t is, evident
from Admiral Watson's dispatch thai
he is maintaining a sharp watch for FL
i5usters. The fact that efforts are be
ing made to send in such supplies seem:
to indicate that the insurgents have no
intention Of yielding.

Since the protest OF the ladies of Sioux
Fails against the MUNICIPALITIES OF the late
Carnival held III that city WAS made, the
daily papers OF the place have in their
way been trying to lay the RESPONSE

blame, but holding the business mems
league to account, and virtually placing
the responsibility OF this body ali upon
the secretary, Geo. Schlosser, VINO en-
Slneered the aggregation. Now comes
the Journal, a sort Of free lance, and
says Sioux Falls ia to blame which
comes pretty nearly coinciding with the
opinion formed throughout tie state. 1t
says: The attempt Of the morning
Unreliable OF Thursday to claim that
the ladies who passed resolutions GEN.
curing the Carnival, were attempting to
lay blame on the city administra.
ton by laying the blame for anything
that may have been out of the way on the
secretary Of the Business Mems League,
was q very lame affair. Considering
things as they are there is more vice in
Sioux Falls every day in tho year than
could possibly be imported during one
carnival. With seven gambling houses,
about fifty prostitutes, q number of
pimps and three drug store saloons all
running openly, it would seem as though
the administration did not need to froth
SO much over q simple set OF resolutions
which were only to be presented to the
newspapers and the city council"

1t appears that the government
cannot lessen the illegal manufac-

from all over the country show that
the moonshiner still plies his voca-
tion with as much zeal and pertina'
city as in days of yore, If all rev
enue and license were taken off the
business, we believe there would be
less tendency to indulgence in
strong drink. Then there would be
no saloons, and anybody could sell
it, and the tippling and treating
habit would die out. Manufacture
and sale should be unrestricted, like
other things, or else prohibited al
together.

Yellow Fever in the Army.

1t isn't the number of men that
yellow fever kills that frightens you
but the unexpected suddenness of
its attack, and the rapidity with
which it kills. A man is well and
hearty at 3 p. M; az 4 p. m. he is
deadly ill; at 6 p. m. he is dead, and
at 8 p. m. he is buried. In much
the same manner men will work day
after day in apparent health, and
then will suddenly appear a general
weakness. The body is giving out.
1t needs something to strengthen
it, to drive away the impurities of
the blood, to tone up the stomach,
and assist digestion. For this pur-
pose Hostetters Stomach Bitters is
