Kearsarge Makes a Good Showing.

NEWPORT News, Va, Sept. 6.-The
official reading Of the log gave the first
class battleship Kearsarge, which went
on her trial trip yesterday, speed Of
IN knots, which speed was main
tanned for nearly half an hour. Those
interested in the construction of the
splendid vessel consider her perform
ance Of especial value, in view Of the
fact that the test was in shallow water,
and the vessels bow was in a pretty
filthy condition, having been in the
water for 13 months.

would Close Up a Brewery.

Sioux C1TY, Sept. IA local fruit
dealer has commenced an action in the
district court seeking to close up the
large brewerv in Sioux City, because it
located saloon next door to his store
and he alleges his trade has been in

general impression that he may be able
to close the saloon, but that his case
will not have any effect upoa the brew

About General Lincoln.

The Bulletin has kindly called atten-
tion to the resolutions passed by the
Union Veterans Union, and we in
tended stating the facts ourselves but
Editor Ford of the Woodbine Twiner,
himself a member Of the order, saves
us the trouble and states the case so
plainly that we can do no better than
quote his article. Mr.. Ford was q brave
Union soldier and no one would be
quicker to resent a real insult to the
old soldiers than he. Read what he
says of the resolutions;
u. V. U. RESOLUTIONS.
sit is very evident that the National
encampment at Des Moines last week
did very unwise action when they
passed resolution condemning Gov.
Shaw for appointing Gen. Lincoln as
brigadier general. The appointment
was made because the officers and men
composing four regiments of Iowa
troops asked that Lincoln be appointed
because he was the best military and
drill master in the state, and there was
no other candidate asking for the ap-
pointment. The resolution is not the
sentiment of the old soldiers, but few
politicians who disagree with Governor
Shaw and railroaded it through before
the boys knew of its infamy.
I'VE are member of this order, and
if such work can be done by few men
who think more of politics than they
do of the order, and are using it for
their own selfish purposes. it Is not the
order we wish to belong to. All over
the state comes strong remonstrances
A dozen members of the order here say
they will withdraw. and the entire
camps of the order will send their char
ters to headquarters and disband. A
few soreheads in this order cannot re-
vive the rebellion; it is dead. Our
brothers in the south are just as loyal
today as we are, or any other Union
soldiers. and Gen. Lincoln, owing to
his fitness and military experience. was
the best man in the whole state to ap.
point as the commander of the Iowa
brigade, and every loyal citizen still
commends Gov. Shaw for that appoint.
ment. 1t was not the rank and file of
the Union Veterans Union that caused
that resolution, but rather few disap.
pointed Office seekers who belong to ii
who railroaded it through. General
Lincoln has three sons in the present
war, and he is as loyal son to this
country today as can be found, and
Gov. Shaw has the support of the vet
erans Of the Union army and will have
in that appointment"

Mr.. Caswell and Mr.. Shaw Van had
lively row before the board of super

Caswell's put in and that they did not

Democratic Inconsistency.

The solicitude which the democratic
feels for the way in which a republican
administration may treat the Philip
pinos in the future, is fairly ridiculous
in the light of present and past events.
1t is stated that the republican admini-
would Cypress and exploit the
natives, that the American flag carried
by republlcanism means tyranny, inn
perialism and the down treading of the
natives in favor of the whites. 1t has
been said so often as to become trite
that the only way to judge the future is
by the past. The republican party has
no flaws it its record for freedom. Lib.
erty gave it birth, the hand of Emanci-
patton rocked the cradle of its infancy,
equality at the polls was the slogan of
Its youth and prosperity has crowned
its manhood. There is not repub-
lican community in the United States
where every citizen is not cheerfully
accorded the right to vote and to have
his ballot fairly counted. This is gov.
ernment by the consent Of the governed
as nearly as it can possibly be carried
out.
What of the democratic party? 1t
was nursed at the bosom of human
slavery, its lullaby was the overseers
lash, it spent its youth and manhood in
vain attempts to uphold the worst pos.
sible system Of government without the
consent Of the governed, and now in
the senility of old age and decrepitude
it could not exist one moment without
suppression of the ballot, open and
glaring fraud and the use of corruption,
intimidation and even murder. When
you hear democrat prating about the
heaven born gift of freedom, when he
tells you there should be no govern.
ment without the consent of the gov
erned, ask him how it is in Mississippi,
Georgia and Florida.
Ask him about the proposed constitu-
tional amendment in North Carolina,
by which it is purposed to disenfran-
ch;se one hundred thousand citizens
of the United States. That contest is
now on. While northern democrats are
shedding crocodile tears for fear the
republican administration will not give
free government to the half civilized
blacks of Luzon, the southern wing is
deliberately carrying out its plan to de-
feat the purpose of our constitution
and to deprive the black man of the
south, American born citizen as he is,
Of the right of suffrage. Let democracy
attend to its own awful realities before
it complains of republican possibilities.
Again in Kentucky, the infamous Goe-
bel is the candidate. He is backed by
William Jennings Bryan. This north
ern orator who prates of equality and
public decency, endorses the man who
as Ex-Congressman Owen says, has
violated three of God g great command
ments, "Thou shalt not lie, Thou shalt
not steal, Thou shalt not kill" The
author of the famous election law,
planned especially for corruption and
fraud is championed by Bryan as he
rants about the consent of the governed.
We trust that no republican will be
mislead by the hypocrltical frothings
of Democracy. We trust that honest
democrats will see the hypocrisy of it
all and that they will repudiate the
party which weeps over the constitu-
tion in one section of the country and
tramples it ruthlessly under foot in
another.

Debate In the volksraad.

PRETORIA, Sept. 6.-The volksraad
yesterday accepted Mr.. Coester's mo-
ton to fix the debates to grow out of the
Interpolation of the government as to
the assembling Of British troops along
the Transvaal borders for Thursday
next. In presenting his motion, Mr..
Coester referred to the Jameson raid
and other outrages and murders COM
mitted by British troops 'as leading
him to distrust the present concentra-
tion." He declared that the conven-
ton of 1884 did not contain the suzer-
ainty stipulation and he maintained that
Mr.. Chamberlain had broken that con-
vention by interfering in the internal
affairs of the tepublic. Other burghers
supported Mr.. Coester, saying that
while negotiations We're proceeding all
the British colonies were offering armed
resistance, ''and must the Transvaal re-
main silent?" exclaimed burgher. "It
is opposed to Christianity to conduct
friendly relations, and yet mobilize
troops. We must know why the Brit
ish troops are on our borders" The mo-
tion to wait until Wednesday for the
governments s reply was adopted.

CABINET COUNCIL IS CALLED

E.nSAanus NAinl6terS Hastily summoned to

Plans In Case of Rupture.
LONDON, Sept. 6.-The premier, the
Marquis Of Salisbury, will come to Lon
don today from Walmer to confer with
Mr.. Chamberlain, and cabinet council
is selected for Friday. and urgent mes
sages have been sent to all the ministers
requesting their presence. There is
great activity ut the admiralty and CO.
lonial offices. Lord Wellesley is in
daily communication with the war Of
flee. as are General Sir Evelyn Wood
and Colonel Hector Archibald McDon-
aid. aides-de-camp to the queen. The
press association asserts that the officers
of the Highland Light infantry, at
Devonport, notified their men last even
ing to prepare for departure, probably
on Thursday.
The Times, which comments editori-
ally upon the gravity of the SITUATION
that necessitates cabinet council ut
such an unusual period, says: cit would
be unpardonable folly to shut our eyes
to the suspiciously dilatory character Of
President Kruger's diplomacy and to
the energy with which he is simultane

CHICAGO, Oct. ia cablegram was re-

from President Kruger. OF the Transvaal
Republic. The ceblegram was sent in an
swer TO a message requesting statement
of the position of the Transvaal in the
present crisis. In the cablegram which fol-
lows small words have been filled in in or
der to make smooth reading:
Pretoria, Oct. IL.
Through the Tribune We wish to thank
our many American friends for sympathy
in the present crisis of the republic Last
Monday We gave England forty-eight
hours notice within which to give assur-
ance that the dispute will be settled by ar
bitration or other peaceful methods. The
notice expires at o'clock to-day. The
British agent is recalled and war is GER
tain.
This is the fitting end of British policy
Of force and fraud which has marked all
South Africa with the blood of Afrikand-
ers. We must now make South Africa free
or the white mans grave. The republics s
forces include all nationalites, among them
a strong American corps. showing it is not
a case of Boer against uitlander, but all
nations against the English. We have full
faith in freedom and republicanism and in
the righteousness which guides the desti-
MES Of nations.
1900 PRESIDENT KRUGER"
An answer of ten words from the Tribune
to President Kruger giving the time OF the
receipt of the message in Chicago was pre-
paid, the people in Pretoria being evidently
somewhat apprehensive that the message
might not get through.

Those Who Aid the Beers Will BE

CAPE TOWN, Oct. u.-Sir Alfred Miner,

proclamation declaring all persons abetting

Britain to be guilty OF high treason.

Conyngham Greene, the British diplomatic

Although the progressives do not profess
to desire war for wars sake, there is a
universal belief that only war can effect a
settlement There is little fear with regard
to the possibility of a successful Boer at
tack upon Cape Colony. 1t is believed the
garrison is well able to hold its own. The
fact is recalled that in 1881. when the British
were standing on the defensive, they were
almost invariably successful
In the course of a debate In the Cape
House Of Assembly last evening regarding
the allegations of Boer maltreatment of
refugees from the Transvaal the premier,
Mr.. Schreiner. implored the House not to
believe the newspapers in this particular
SO far as I know" he said. "there is no
truth in the statements that the Orange
Free State railway officials have committed
brutal assaults upon refugee passengers and
the officials deny these statements" On the
other hand the reports Of outrage and insult
are plentifully corroborated.
The news Of the Boer ultimatum and of
the character OF demapds evoked at first
only incredulity. When the report was con-
hrmed incredulity gave way to a feeling of
stupor, which was shortly replaced by anger
at the impertinence of the document Then
followed signs Of relief at the relaxation Of
the long tension and the clearing up of the
situation by the ultimatum.
Advices from Buluwayo say that the
Gwelo-Gwando Railway, in Rhodesia, con-
tinues uninterrupted.
