According to W. f. Kidd, editor OF
the Dakota Ruralist, the presidential
reception at Aberdeen was a veritable
frost. The republican manipulation oi
the affair for partisan purposes disgust
cd even the Aberdeen people them
selves. "The welcome Of the troops was
nota party matter" he Gays. "People
felt that to use such q sacred OCCASION to
boom the republican party was g
sacrilege, and rather than show their
approval, they staid away. Not more
than one person 10 ten in Brown county
came to Aberdeen that day. Farmers
within two or three miles OF town staid
away and some people IN Aberdeen were
SO indignant that they refused to come
out to see the parade.
"The crowd vas q great disappoint-
ment. It was no larger than a good
circus day crowd. About 1900 eeats
were erected but not over GOO were
taken. The spectators who put them
up were out OF pocket. Not over 5000
people listened to Mckinley's speech to
the soldiers. And the crowd was cold
and undemonstrative. The soldiers
cheered Lee heartily, both on the street
and at the reviewing stand, but their ap-
plause OF Mckinley was confined to q
very small portion OF the regiment.

Chamberlain's defense of his policy
and diplomacy in the house Of com.
mons was disappointing in every as.
pect. He opened with a fierce personal
attack on Philip Stanhope, who had
challenged him to answer Stead's
charges, and was called to order by the
speaker for implying that Stanhope
was dishonest.
MI. Chamberlain claimed that the
Jameson raid chapter was closed by the
findings of the parliamentary inquiry.
This evasion excited loud protest from
the opposition and gained increased ere.
dence for Mr.. Stead's accusation that
Mr.. Chamberlain was an accomplice in
the raid.
Mr.. Stanhope also challenged Mr..
Chamberlain to produce a le,or writ

Jameson raid inquiry, by NJ. Hawkes.

ties to the hushed-up raid inquiry.

and threatening MI. Chamberlain with
exposure for denouncing Its promoters
