A law that Furnishes a man for doing
II Christian act is at least defective.
AT the time of The McGoverh railroad
action at Richmond the injured man
was taken to hotel where he was .un-
der the care of a physician. The latter
procured his medicine at Freemans drug
store and amongst the medicines pur-
chased was some brandy to revive the
injured man soon after the accident.
For supplying the physicians perscrip-
ton at Il time Of need the honest pro-
prictor of that drug store was heav-
lily fined and branded as law breaker.
What is more strange than all is that in
such a state as Vermont the laws of that
state not only upheld but compelled the
prosecuting officers 10 take the action
that was taken. In speaking Of this
matter we have reference only to this
particular instance which from knowl-
edge of the parties, and the circum-
stances we believe was an injustice.
Gases of similar character are constant
ly coming up. and the situation is de-
plorable in what ever way we look at it
The plan Of the prohibition law may
be the wisest but the system is certainly
in sore need Of regulation.

KAUTZ OBEYED ORDERS

Action at Samoa.
IF ANOTHER POWER AGREED
Cablegram Received From Him
States That the situation There
Has Improved Since His
Last Dispatch.

Washington, March 3l.-A great deal
Of interest has naturally been aroused
here by advices from Apia, Samoa, dat
ed March %, to the effect that the trou-
bles growing out of the election of a
king of Samoa had taken more seri-
GUS turn and resulted in lombard
ment of native villages along the shore
by the United States cruiser Philadel-
phia, Admiral Kautz commanding, and
the British cruisers Porpoise and Roy
alist. The bombardment had then con-
tinued internationally for eight days.
Several villages had been burned, and
there had been a number Of casualties
among the American and British sailors
and marines.
Admiral Kautz, in attacking the pro-
visional government set up in Samoa
under Mataafa and recognized by the
German consul, acted within his orders.
These were, as already stated, that he
should guard and conserve the inter-
ests OF Americans in the islands: but.

Berlin Gets the News.

| befSin Oeto the NeWS'
Berlin, March s1.--A brief official dis
patch from Apia, Samoa, dated March
! 20, says:
1.-THE bombardment continues. In
pursuance to military orders, the whites
have evacuated many houses. The
chiefs of the Tanus party who were ex-
lied to other islands have been brought
! back from Upolu. The firearms and
ammunition taken from Tanus on Jan.
2 have been returned"
/ Replying to allegations Of The Daily
Chronicle of London-that the United
States ambassador here, Mr.. Andrew d.
White, has been pro-German IN his
handling of the Samoan questionable
Cologne Gazette says semiofficially:
For some time we have noticed that
the efforts Of the English press to Gre
ate bad blood between the United States
and Germany have again taken fresh
impulse from the latest development at
Samoa. Not to mention other instances
which show that mood of the English
press, the London Times a few days
ago circulated a false story to the effect
that Germany was intending to with
draw from the Berlin treaty. Now The
Daily Chronicle claims to know as
fact that the United States ambassador,
Mr.. White, has aroused great dissatis-
faction in the United States because OF
his handling the Samoan question prin-
cipally from the German standpoint.
1T would be honoring The Daily
Chronicle too much II we we're to en-
deavor to protect the American en-
bassador against that absolutely UNI
proved accusation Of serious violation
Of his duties. For us it Is sufficient to
say again, How bitterly and with what
talent in inventing false reports the
English press is pursuing everything
which is suspected Of being apt to fos-
ter the good and friendly relations be-
tween the United States and Germany"
The National Zeitung, commenting
upon the Samoan situation. says:
while it appears that the American
and British representatives thought the
Mataafans We're contravening the
treaty, the meeting held on the Phila-
delphia has no Jurisdiction, because the
unanimous approval of the three con-
suls is necessary to make any decision
legal"
The National Zeitung adds that fur
Their information Is necessary in order
to show whether the Americans and
British had sufficient reason for resort
ing to armed intervention and con-
cludes with remarking:
"Thus far the only result appears to
have been destruction and anarchy"

partment last week urged in ,ehalf OF
the German government that the good
relat ons eX sting between two such ma
tons as the United States and Germany
would not be interrupted by matter OF
such comparative unimportance as an
official dispute in Samoa.
1t is said that the German govern
ment probably would have accepted
Admiral Kautz as a sort OF umpire,
taking his decision as final, but that the
objection, quite forcibly expressed TO
the state department. was the manner
OF his going to Samoa. while friendly
exchanges were going on. without no.
tice to Germany.
The German ambassador has received
no advices and no instruction relative
to the reported bombardment. and
there is no evidence thus far that Ger
many will protest or assume belliger-
ent tone. From the German stand
point the most serious aspect is that
the bombardment will excite public
feeling on both sides of the water. lead
ing to popular outbursts which will
overcome the efforts to secure a settle
ment.

Among the foreign attaches stationed
at Washington the fighting above Ma
Mia is being followed with critical in
terest They speak of 1t in rather ser-
Gus terms, the prevailing view being
that the insurgents can keep up u long
and harrassing running fight. One Of
the foreign representatives, who has
seen long service in the far east, said
that casualties of 81 a day may seem
small, but when long continued, they
reach discouraging proportions"
Since the fighting with the insurgents
began some of the foreign governments
have arranged to send their military at
taches to Manila to observe the devel-
opments. The Italian military expert
already has left on that mission.

Mules Swan Across.

-
| The mules were made to swim across
the river, and the soldiers charged with
guiding them were under continual fire,
The artillery fire was more than the
rebels could withstand. They had suf-
fered greatly under the rife fire. but the
artillery drove them from their posi-
ton. The American loss in the engage
ment was killed and 20 wounded,
| while the rebel loss was considerably
greater.
Soon after the rout Of the rebels Cen
eral Macarthur ordered his division to
camp, and halt and rest followed on
wide stretch Of land near the station.
The camp was only four miles from Ma
lolos. formerly the insurgent capital,
for the seat of rebel government has
been moved to San Fernando.
A great multitude Of women and chill
dren and other noncombatants are NOV
ing to the northward. They are follow
Ing at the heels of the nearly worsted
rebel army. Several large bodies Of
Spanish prisoners are being carried
along by the retreating Filipinos.
1t has been discovered that before the
rebels evacuated Bocave they wantonly
murdered rs Cinnamon.
The accuracy Of the American artil-
lery fire was aptly demonstrated in the
attack upon Bigaa. AS the Americans
advanced a trainload Of insurgents was
seen near the town, and the fieldpieces
were Immediately directed upon it.
Many shells were hurled into the very
center of the train. and the rebel force
was practically annihilated.
The American loss at Bocave was /
killed and q wounded. The Nebraska
regiment. which had a position on the
right of the line, drove the insurgents
a mile through the woods.
General Otis and General Hale's bri-
gades are now occupying respectively
the right and left Of the railway line,
with General Wheaton's brigade in sup
port.
Since the advance of the Americans
was commenced the insurgent loss is
believed to have been fully 5000 men.

Whether Aguinaldo intends to stann

whatever the insurgent plans may ne
General MacArthur's men will probabiy
attack Malolos at once. If Asuinaldo
stands, there will be fought teirihc
engagement.
Bulacan, capital of the province of
Bulacan, has been taken by the Ameri-
can troops. but it was afire, when they
entered. The town was fired and apan-
doned by the insurgents, who fled IN
terror.
General MacArthur's division passed
fully a mile to the right of Bulacan.
but the rebels could not be driven by
their officers to remain at the defenses
of the town.
All the sky is clouded with the smoke
Of the blazing towns. Ucat. Taal and
Bigaa are in ashes, and the long path
way Of the insurgent retreat Is marked
by burned towns and villages.
The town Of Guiguinto was attacked
in the morning. The enemy had made
a stand in great numbers in the trench
ee at a river crossing about half a
mile beyond the railroad station.
As soon as their presence was detect
ed the Kansas and Pennsylvania Volun-
teer regiments were deployed and or
dered to cross the railroad bridge.
A brisk fire was opened by the insur-
gents the moment the Americans set
foot upon the bridge. In face of this
heavy fire the troops advanced at
swinging gait and Immediately attacked
the trenches.

Ihls afternoon as Rasmussen was
standing near his office Ezekiels walked
up and shot him, the first bullet strik~
ing the victim in the eye. passing into
the brain, causing instant death Two
more shots were fired, one passing into
the abdomen and the other entering the
thigh.
The murderer was shortly afterward
arrested without resistance, the only
reason for the crime seeming to be
that Ezekiels' wife was sick when put

was man of considerable wealth
Ezekiels is we'll known in Northern

high here. as the crime was apparently

LOS ANGELES, Oct. u. - II. II
Kohlsaat, proprietor of the Chicago
Times Herald" arrived in this city to-
day on the Owl train from San Fran
cisco. In an interview Mr.. Kohlsaat
said:
I'VE want the Republican Conven-
tion of 1900 in Chicago, but 1 hardly
think we care for the Democratic Con-
vention. The free advertising Chicago
got from the Democratic Convention
the last time. from the fact that the
conglomeration known as the Chicago
platform has been so much before the
public. was not desirable. Chicago peo-
pie do not care to have their city's
name connected with such things. Let
it be some other citys platform this
time"
Mr. Kohlsaat also said that he was
informed that one of the first things
Congress would d0 upon assembling
would be to pass a bill making gold
the standard currency with all other
money redeemable in gold also a bill
permitting national banks to do busi-
ness on a capital of S25,0O0, and to
issue notes to the par value of their
bonds.
