would 1T ought not to be called upon to
do SO. Only that loose understanding of
the relation of the state and its citizens
from which has grown the spawn of So
cialism, protectionism and other like
schemes looking to state aid can be held
responsible for the idea that we ought
to raid the public treasury for such a
purpose as this.
Happily, there is no cause 20 do so. The
people in their individual capacity have
responded with their well known gen
cros:ty to the demand made upon them.

be done in this. All that We need now is
10 hold steadily to our purpose and not
to be misled in one direction or another.
The movement is a state movement;

ular movement The greater the number
of contributors the more pride can we
all take in the result. The wider range
geographically the subscriptions assume.
the more honorable will it be to the cit
izenship Of the state. It is now plain
that not only the people of the cities who
have undertaken this task, but of other
localities, will contribute to its success.
This much has been made plain through
tho subscriptions received in St. Paul.
Yet that in no wise relieves US of our re-
spcnsibilities. Good hard work in st.
Paul is the thing most needed. Our ex-
ample will be followed. But unless we
bring the movement speedily to a sue
cessfuI close, We are not at all unlikely to
find ourselves confronted with a very
undesirable situation of having the boys
of the Thirteenth reach their home port
without having the money forthcoming to
pay their way to their respective homes.

DIR COAL AND MEAT.

The action Of the board of fire commits
sioners in dividing up their contracts for
the coal supply for the ensuing year may
not bring with it any particularly tangi-
bic results in the saving of the peoples
money. 1t none the less merits the public
approval. Unlike the recent action Of the
board of control it shows that the fire
department is not willing, at least with
out making some resistance, to hold up
its hands at the demand of the Coal
Barons. In the two great necessaries of
daily life, meat and coal, the public is
confronted by very grave situation. If
it is found with reference to coal that
the departments of government are re-
latively powerless the Individual is soon
bound to feel the full weight of the ex-
tortion which the coal combination
ter of the meat supply. If the retail
butchers can be bribed or coerced into
paying and charging such figures as the
meat trust insists upon the remedy Of
LIZ POOPIC - AIOI VCIy p4dIu 1uey must
presently, at least, either pay the prices
demanded or they must seriously limit
their consumption Of fresh meat.
This movement IS evidently only in it's
inception. We have had touch several
times before Of what the coal barons
can do in the way of public extortion,
when they see their way clear. These
two combinations are evidently the
pioneers in a great undertaking for the
effective plumber Of the people, through
the device of the trusts. It seems on
their part to take leadership in the
movement, since the burden Of their
operations upon the people is palmer and
more direct than that which must
evidently ensue in. all other directions in
which the trusts are operating. But, at
least so far as relates to the coal sup
ply, the movement can apparently be
persisted in with impunity for an in
definite time. The trust in soft coal,
which our dispatches of yesterday show
is being formed will be the complement
of the anthracite coal combine The So
cial and economic system which places
the fuel supply of 100000 or $4,000 900 of
people in the control of a score or two
of individuals leaves to the people but
very little option but to submit
1t is somewhat different with reference
to the meat supply. There there can be
no natural monopoly. It must rest i'm
mediately with the people to say how far
they will let the present state Of things
go. They have the ultimate remedy in
their own hands without any regard
whatever to laws or public regulations;
and, if they continue to endure extortion
in this direction, the blame belongs to
them individually and collectively. 1t is
matter with which public authority can
have very little to do.
This general subject of our meat and
fuel supply is beyond comparison the
most important now under public con-
sideration. Every good citizen should re-
gard 1t as his or her duty to help to
create the condition of public sentiment
which is necessary to the production of
a remedy in either direction.

PRESS COMMENTS.
Discontinue Of the Prosecutors of
Dreyfus Is Conceded.

LONDON, Aug e4.-The special CORE
| spondents at Rennes agree that although
! yesterdays sitting of the cOurt-martial
was monotonOus it was altogether a
good day for Dreyfus, who, the CORE
| spondent of the Daily News says, lis
| taking a passionate and acute interest
in his own case-has, in fact, become a
Dreyfusite.
1.-The proceedings, although much less
exciting than on the previous day, were
still dominated by the strong personality
Of NJ. LabOri. People are beginning to
see a likeness to the opening of Cam
betta's career, and are asking whether
Labor will go as far.
THE most important point in the pro-
ceedings, perhaps, was the disposal of
Cen. Come, who practically had to con-
fess that the general staff had supported
Esterhazy. Thus Merciar and Come are
both shelved, and the general staff is
beginning to show signs of wavering.
Another good sign was when a point
of law arose on a certain natter, and
Col. Jouaust, president of the court-mar-
tial, replied.
g I am not UP in law. I will make in
quiries and if I find I have the right to
do so I will make the order
This was in reply to NJ. Labori's re-
quest for information regarding the char
acter Of a witness to be furnished by
the public prosecutor, and it seems from
the reply of the presiding judge that he
heSitates."
The correspondent of the Standard
says:
81 learn on good authority that the OPP
posing forces, led by Gen. Roget, are
very seriously discussing the advisability
of adopting entirely new tactics. Ac-
cording 10 my information they hope to
be able to make plausible the following
theory: In the presence as they are Of
the undoubted facts of treason, as prov
ed by the existence of the bordareau, and
quite unwilling to admit that Col. Henry
was capable of treason; convinced, more
over, that only a general staff officer
could possibly have obtained the informa-
ton contained in the bordereau. they
ought to impose as a solution or as an
explanation the idea that Dreyfus and
Esterhazy were acCOmplices, brought
together by Weyl of the Yacht and
thus Esterhazy's admission that the Dor
dereau is in his hand, a fact accepted
by the court of cessation, would be &C
cepted by the court-martial, while Drey-
fus would be looked upon as the real
traitor and purveyor Of documents to
the military attaches of the triple ALI
ance.
IT need not marshal against this by
pocrisy the numerous points Of its i'm
probability, and even Of it's impossfbility,
but 1 mention it here because the very
fact of its being now under discussion
shows a sudden and brilliant light on
the panic-I do not hesitate so strong a
term-which has seized hold of the little
band of conspirators against Justice, as
they have been shown during the last
few days to have been placed in posses

THEIR SACRED oBLGArroxs

One Of the great advantages which .+bo
mperialists have in the prevailing dis
cussion concerning national policies IS
that these gentlemen have a commission
to sacredly protect the nations honor and
to maintain the sacredness Of the ma.
tons flag. Those to whom such bigb
prerogatiyes have been delegated are nee
essarily quite superior to all Of their fell
low citizens Of high and low degree. and
must be dealt with, of course, in a spirif
OF the utmost Difference. When we add
to this that they also are the sole ar.
-biters as to what constitutes patriotism
and necessarily, of what involves trea-
son, their responsibilities must Of course
be regarded as unusually great.
The latest of the imperialist brethren to
remind us of the sacred obligations which
rest on himself and his associates Is Prof
Schurman, formerly of the peace com.
mission. The whole thing, according IN
the professor, has now developed into a
question whether the nations honor shall
be preserved. If We proceed to do Just
as he and those who sent him to Manila
say should be DONE the nations honor
will be safe, if not for all time at least
fer all present purposes.
The issue, Prof Schurman tells US. is
not one OF party politics, nor yet of COM
mercial interest. 1t is purely a moran
question; one which involves the honor Of
the nation and arises out Of our obItga-
ton toward the nations Of the world by
our assumption of sovereignty in The
Philippines.
This. of course, is final He who Is
committed against the honor of the ma.
ton Is altogether a dangerous fellow
and unworthy to argue with. It is our
duty to other nations, rather than to DUP
selves, that We should take into account
We made a treaty with Spain-a treaty
which, by the way, Spain stood In sad
need Of having made with her. We made
this treaty not so much for our own ao
vantage as to give an opportunity to
show just how highly we value the obi
cations which we were about to assume
toward other nations. Therefore, let US
not do or countenance anything when
may limit or qualify or bring to an end
our self-assumed sovereignty over a peo-
pie Who until we assumed this obligation.
We're strangers to us, and who have.
many think very properly, repudiated us
and our sovereignty.
This line Of reasoning is just placed on
as high moral grounds as one might
naturally look for from a college profes,
sor But even college professors, WIFI,
all their knowledge of logic, moral phil
osophy and other intellectual formuIae
sometimes make bad breaks. Col schur-
man is evidently not an exception to this
rule.
Since there can only be one contention,
Of the nations honor, as laid down with
such touching precision by Prof. schur-
man, no doubt the American people. who
are VIGOROUSLY partial to all academic
processes, will now keep quiet until the
professor and the president between them
have placed the nations honor beyond
all possibility Of interference by traitors
and others.
