THE FREE LIST.
THE FOREIGN SOLICITOR.

There is an ordinance upon the
books which makes it necessary
for the peddler or hawker to take
out a license. The person who
simply takes orders, to be filled by
some foreign house in the future,
is hawker and should be made to
pay for the privilege of plying his
vocation. Enforce the ordinance.
Abate the peddler nuisance as far
as possible. Protect the local
business men who pay taxes. y
Victor Times.
The sentiment is splendid, but
an effort recently made in this di-
rection by one of our sister cities
proved discrepancy in the law
which places those itinerant takers
of orders outside the pale of sue
cessful prosecution. The fellow
who shows the goods he sells must
pay license, but the fellow who
gets in his work with an order
book, and who is really the more
dangerous to the interests of the
regular merchant, escapes without
paying cent for the privilege of
plying his vocation.
There is only one remedy, and
that is by legislation. The law
that makes it possible for cities
and towns to tax peddlers should
be broadened enough to take in
this more undesirable class of
hawkers.

Herald from Washington says: Acting
Secretary Of the Navy Allen has perfect
ed arrangements for the participation in

nearly all the captains of the squadron
which destroyed Admiral Montejo's war
ships in Manila bay. Captain Charles v.
Grdley. who commanded the Olympia,

Olympia, and who was Deweys chief of
STAFF in the battle, is returning with Ad-
m,ral Dewey. Captain Coushlan, who
commanded the Raleigh. is in this coun-
try. at Port Orchard, Wash; Commander
Walker, who was relieved from command

Washington: Captain Dyer. who COM
manded the Baltimore. Is on leave at his
home: Commodore Wood who command
ed the gunboat Petrel is inspector of the
Fifth lighthouse district. with headquar-
ters IN Baltimore, and Captain Frank
Wilder, the commander Of the Boston, is
captain of the New York navy yard
Rear Admiral Schley will also take part
in THE celebration, though without any
orders from the department. The ad-
mlral has not received an invitation from
the New York committee, but lie desires
to take part in his personal capacity and
to join with the others in welcoming the
hero of Manila. He feels that there
should not be any official participation
by officers likely to attract any attention
from Admiral Dewey.

Fractional Silver Coins.

New York, Sept. ia special to the
Herald from Washington says: Frac-
tlonal silver coins are in almost az great
demand at the treasury as are small
bills. The revival of business all over
the country has absorbed the supply Of
dimes, quarters and half dollars so ram
idly that the treasury will soon be en-
tlrely out OF coins of these denomina-
tions. BY joint resolution of congress,
passed in 1876. providing for the redemp-
tIon of the fractional paper currency then
in circulation, the secretary of the treas
ury was authorized to purchase silver
bullion and coin fractional silver to be
issued in redeemng the fractional paper.

Paris Sept. 19-The council Of minis
ters decided to-day to pardon Dreyfus
in principle. The pardon will take eff
feet in a few days. Dreyfus has relin-
quished his appeal for reversal of the
judgment of the court-martial
1t is said Dreyfus will be sent abroad
before the promulgatio of his pardon in
order to avoid demonstrations.
I'm principle" is an idiom sometimes
used in semi-official announcements Of
but a slight bearing on the matter ex
cept, perhaps, that it implies the fulfill
ment of various fornalities before the
pardon is actually issued, thereby quail
flying the announcement of the pardon
with slight tentativeness. 1t is not known
yet whether the pardon includes am
nesty
There is much remark here on the
strange coincidence of the death of
Schuerer-Kestner the first champion of
Dreyfus and to whom Dreyfus will vir-
tually owe his freedom, on the very day
the cabinet decided to pardon the pris-
oner. Schuerer- kestners death was sud
den. He had been ill during the last few
days, but it was not thought his illness
would prove fatal. The announcement
that Dreyfus was to be pardoned had al
ready been discounted by predictions and
there was absolutely no excitement along
the boulevards, when newsboys ran along
at about 2:15 p. m. with the first editions
containing the statement that the cab
met had decided to pardon Dreyfus
Everyone expected it and the decision
met with no opposition.
The Droits Del Homme. socialist organ,
says: "Our task remains the same after
as before the liberation of Dreyfus to
continue the campaign against all those
who are responsible for the lamentable
affairs and unmask the forgers, traitors
and false witnesses. even though they
may be covered with glttering decora-
tions."

will be able to do little if anything in

gagements, plans of which they have
known for some time. In some respects
they consider that the delay will be bene-

Dreyfus Champion Dead.

Paris, Sept. 19.-Kestner former vice.
president of the senate and champion Of
Dreyfus. is dead
M. Auguste Scheurer Kestner. the for
mer vice-president of the French senate
and foremost champion of the cause at
Dreyfus, was born February II, 1s33 at
Mulhouse, Alsace, from which place the
Dreyfus family also hailed. He was
president Of the chemical society of Paris
and was prominent member Of num-
per OF other societies. He was political
director of the Republique Francais from
1873 to 1884 and was republican in poll
tics. He took a great interest in the i'm
prOvement of the working classes and in
1865 founded cooperative society for
their benefit. His republican ideas in
1857 caused him to be sentenced to four
months Imprisonment and two thousand
francs fine. He was elected to the ma
tional assembly in 1871 and in 1875 he was
flrst elected to the senate of which he
afterwards became one of the secretar-
les and eventually one of the vice presi-
dents. He was defeated for re-election
as ce-president January 13. 1898 He
has written extensively on chemistry.

Result of the Pardon.

New York, Sept IA dispatch to the
Journal and Advertiser says: The par
don Of Dreyfus is not in the ordinary
sense of the term, regular for the reason
that the prisoners demand for appeal
is still pending but the situation has been
placed before Dreyfus and his friends
have been asked to induce him to with
draw his appeal in view of the pardon
This unusual course is a part of the gen.
eral policy of amnesty adopted by the
present government and it is the logical
outcome of the incongruous verdict. By
formal condemnation the military chiefs
are satisfied and pressing reasons for
their prosecution is avoided. If par
don follows much of the force must be
knocked out of the Dreyfus campaign
and incidentally out of foreign criti-
cism. A campaign for the trial of a
man enjoying full liberty can never
evoke much sympathy and the fact of
the mans second condemnation by the
court-martial must to large extent ex-
culpate MERCER, Gonse, Roget and the
other generals. Thus the latter will not
be prosecuted and all contemplated pro-
ceedings against them will be abandoned.
BY this means the government will come
as near as possibly satisfying the great
bulk OF moderate opinion in France. only
extremists on both sides desiring to keep
up tle fight. Public opinion seems to
have anticipated this result and excite
ment in the Dreyfus affair has calmed
down in a remarkable fashion in the
last two weeks
Reviewing the governmental pardon,
which all Paris knows will be granted,
the Figaro says:
ssThe government has decided to par
don Dreyfns because such an act is the
aatural sequence of the Rennes court
martial. The discussions which took
place before the eyes of the world show
ed there was no proof against Dreyfus.
