The Latest from South Africa.
The Beers must strike telling
blows this week before the British
reinforcements are upon them, and
the latest news from the seat of war
in South Africa indicates that they
are seeking to do this
10 the last few DAYS nearly $4,000
British troops have arrived in South
Africa as reinforcements, and IL 900
more were due in Cape Town wednes-
day. Most of these troops are destin-
ed for Durham, where an army for the
relief of General White, at Ladysmith,
will be quickly formed. This army
will be commanded 10y General Meth
uen and General Hildyard.
News from Ladysmith and other
war centers in South Africa is being
greatly delayed by the British censors,
who also withhold from the public
anything that might be construed as
favorable to the Beers. The latest
news from Ladysmith, received Mon
day, carries the operations there up to
last Thursday night. After an all
day bombardment by the Beers
Thursday, General White signaled by
Photograph to Estcourt, the nearest
British post, that he had nothing to
communicate. Kafiir runners have
arrived at Dur an with a story that

bert and White have been negotiating

Echoes of the Election.


The results prove that the Presi-
dent hasn't much strength before the
country as "war candidate" What
ever prestige may have been to his
advantage because of the unequaled
work of the navy in the Spanish war
has vanished from political conside-
ration. If Mr.. Mckinley is renomi.
mated. he will go before the country
on his record as President and the
new issues resulting from his admin
istration. He will not receive any
considerable help from the fact that
war is in progress in the Philip
pines, and there will be none of the
traditional fear of swapping horses
while crossing a stream.
Taken all in all, the democrats are
thoroughly pleased with the results
Tuesday. They find no cause for
much encouragement in any quarter,
but on the contrary there is utmost
confidence that matters will 60 their
way in 1900 if they pursue a con-
sentative cause in that campaign.
In Ohio the issues were narrowed
down to question of endorsement
of McKinley's administration, and
the chief anxiety in these elections
was the result in that State. In Ne
braska strenuous efforts were made to
defeat Bryan, but the republicans
lost over $4,000 compared with the
result of 1897. In Maryland the
democrats made practically clean
sweep, turning out the republicans,
who had gained a temporary hold in
the State, upon purely local issues.
Kentucky appears to be safe for Goe-
bel; and even in Massachusetts and
Iowa the republicans suffered losses,
although they managed to hold the
States.
One of the causes contributing to
the result of the Democratic victory
in Maryland was the persecution of
Admiral Schley by the Navy Depart
ment. Being Schley's native State,
it was but natural that his friends
should take special notice of the
treatment. The President was warn
ed on this point several months ago,
and those who gave him the warning
were prominent republican friends of
Schley who were in position to know
whereof they spoke.
The election returns do not show
that there is anything particularly
doubtful about Virginia.
Those gentlemen who claim to
have viewed the death and burial of
Arthur Pue German of Maryland
may now prepare themselves to wit
ness his resurrection and his reap
pearance in the United States Senate.
1t is very evident that Ohio is not
the State where the application of
the Golden Rule can be expected to
take firm root and flourish.

AN IMPORTANT PRECEDENT.-The
I. ;. Circuit Court of Appeals in

the Western District Court of North
Carolina in case which establishes
an important precedent. The case
was that of Mrs. Cleme James, ad-
ministratriX, VS.. the Central Trust
Company Of New York, aud the Sou
thern Railway. The plaintiff brought
suit in the State Court of North Car
olina for damages for the killing of
her husband on one of the roads of
North Carolina, and received a judg-
ment for $4,000. The road was
branch of the Southern and did not
extend beyond the State lines. The
company carried the case to the Unit
ed States District Court, where an
injunction was granted. 1t was held
that the Federal Court had jurisdic-
ton. The Circuit Court of Appeals
confirmed the decree of injunction,
which nullifes the verdict of the
State Court.
