SPREAD OF THE FEVER,

Washington, Sept. 7 kilograms to
the surgeon general of the Marine Hos.
pitsl service from Surgeon Carter, now
at Key West, state that up to last night
the American physicians bad reported
64 eases of yellow fever at that point.
He estimated that the Cuban physicians
we're in attendance upon from one-third
to one half as many more cases, but as
no reports had been made by them, it
vas impossible to give accurate figures.
Dr.. Carter expresses the opinion that
DR.. McLanaban of the navy depart
ment, who is i'll with fever, will recover.
A message to the surgeon general
from Maimi states that the one case
reported from that point has been iso.

Southerners never having had any
experience in fighting people strug-
Cling for liberty and home rule, have
not been enthusiastic in volunteering
for the war in the Philippines. The
Richmond Dispatch puts it very
strongly: "If the problem before
US were how to relieve the Filipinos
from the thrall of Spain, and give
them freedom, instead of how tc re.
duce them to subsection to US, we
should see more Southerners enlist

inclined to become instruments in
taking from the FiIipinos the right to
govern themselves "

This is the news of the day and
The chief topic Of conversation in the
cafes and resorts of the Journalists
this evening.
The appeals were couched in elo
quent terms, invoking the assistance
of their majesties in the name Of
justice and humanity. They are
quite supplementary to the formal
application that will be made by the
government commlssary, Maj. Car
Iiere.
The demand of M. Labori that the
ceurtmartiai should issue process,
snbject TO the approval of the two
soyereigns, came like thunderbolt
at todays session. The step is
fraught with momentous conse-
quences as it affords Emperor
William an opportunity again to
assume his fayorite role Of arbiter of
the destinies of the world. No one
will be surprised if Col. Schwartz
koppen, in the name of the kaiser,
makes declaration That will practi
caily decide the result of the trial.

must consult their respective sovereiges

A remarkable circumstance, aad one

CLOSELY IDENTIFIED WITT THE
PEOPLE,

Fortunately for the east side, from
which the selection is to be made, and
for the state of Vermont that has hon
ored herself by sending to the U. S.
senate men who soon exercised infu
ence upon that body and throughout
the nation, the aspirants for the seat
are good and worthy men. Nothing
can be said against their ability or the
| fidelity with which they have dis
| charged public trusts committed to
them. VIM. W. Grout, VIM. P. Dill
| bingham, Jonathan Ross and Charles
A. Prouty are each, in many respects,
| well qualified to fill the vacancy.
Taking into consideration the length
of service in the lower branch of con-
gress that naturally gives experience
in the upper, the satisfactory way in
which for many years his constituents
have been faithfully represented in
the national house, and the influence
he has exerted in congress, VIM. w.
Grout leads all his competitors. IF
promotion to higher station is to
come as an acknowledgment of faith
full, untiring discharge of duty in
subordinate post, and as token of
confidence in one who never yet was
found wanting in devotion to the
intererests of his constituents, Gen
Grout is the candidate who richly de-
serves to be chosen.
1t must not be forgotten, in this
connection that Gen. Grout is closely
identified with the people. He is one
of them, plain, unpretending man,
always ready to give any of his con-
stituents information upon questions
of public interest and Importance. If
an application for pension has been
chung up" in the pension office for
any cause, if a veteran needs and de-
serves an increase, if a veterans
widow or child wants assista nee and
advice about filing claim for pen
sion, to whom will these applicants
turn for help? Ask almost any of
them and the answer will be-"Gep-
eral Grout."
Farmers and stock breeders of Yer
mont find Gen. Grout interested in
these pursuits. At the state fair held
at Billings Park last fall he exhibited
choice specimens of horses, and, more

Gen. W. w. Grout has again shown
his usual interest in the soldier who
goes from the state to do honor to his
country. J. Herbert Fish of Hallowell,
Me-, went out with company E, first
Vermont regiment, in the Spanish
American war and came back help
less man, deprived of the use of his
limbs. His people are poor-unable to
sustain so heavy a burden. Mr.. Fish
communicated with the pension de-
partment and was notified that it
would be six months before his claim
could be recorded. Congressman
Grout interested himself in the matter
and succeeded in securing a pension
of S72 a month for the disabled man.
There are many instances in the life
of Gen. Grout as a congressman of his
becoming the benefactor of the de-
serving instances in which Grout has
come to the rescue when the congress
men from the other district refused
to lift hand or was quite apathetic.
And Gen. Grout is now candidate
for the senate. He will reach there

milton of his ability and as compG-
ment for what he has done for the
