President 81. c Simmons, of the
Fargo College, preached in the Con-
gregational church last Sunday, and
took occasion to give his audience an
insight of the work accomplished by
that institution. In order to get the
endowment promised by Mr.. Pearson,
of Chicago, the college will have to
raise $4,000. Thirty thousand dol.
lars Of this amount has already been
raised and the other 1920, 600 has to be
raised by next July. Mr.. Simmons
was here to try and raise some money
for the college. He seems to think
that he will be able to raise the amount
required to secure the endowment
within the time specified.

SOLVING A PROBLEM.

Professor Gunton in his most recent
paper says that THE great problem is
not to disperse population and drive it
back to the land (Which is a reverse
step, away from civilization, but TO
take hold Of the evils associated with
city life and, as far as possible, elimi-
nate them. Extension of centers of
population throughout the rural regions
and regeneration of these centers with
IN themselves, is the really effective
program of civilization
Which is solid truth Whatever will
tend to break down the barriers of
prejudice and mistrust between the
rural and the town living will tend to
the betterment of both We know of
no way swifter to that end than the
highest and best Improvement of the
means of speedy and easy communica-
tion and transportation between the
country and the city. 1t is because of
this truth that we find rural regions
near by congested populations touched
more by refining and civilizing infiu-
ences, even if we confess that some
thing of the evil spills over also into
the suburb.
The social instinct is in itself refin-
ing, elevating and civilizing. Exclu-

The German Legation at Washington
has blundered in taking any notice of
the post prandial remarks of Captain
Coghlan of the Raleigh. 1t should have
given no ear to what was reported
concerning the Captain. He was not
exactly circumspect, but he certainly
will never be cashiered for telling the
story he did over the damask of jolly
private feast. He has rendered the ma
ton too gallant service to be even rep
rimanded now at the instance Of the
representative of Emperor William.
The Captain has written to the Secre-
tary of the Navy disclaiming any in
tention to insult the German nation
He says that what he did say was at
a private dinner, where there was free
dom of expression and no publicity.
His remarks have been much exagger-
ated, he says, and their intention dis
torted by the press. He claims "privi-
lege," and he may very properly do
so, SO here we have another case of
the meddling, lying and over-coloring
of the Paul Pry press, the lurid and
unreliable press, which invades privacy
and has no respect for the sacredness
of hospitality.

HEALTH AND CLIMATE AT MA
Mia.

Our Consul at Manila, o. F. Will
Jams, Who has had an extended resi-
dence there, has felt called upon by
the misleading statements of irrespon-
sible correspondents, the untruthful
speculations of the opponents of the Ad-
ministration, and the worrying of the
sentimentalists, to send in a report to
the Department of State upon the
health of Manila and with some refer
ence to the climate of the Philippine
Islands.
He admits what it was unnecessary
to do, since every one knows the fact,
that the climate is not an invigorating
ons No tropical climate is. Where
there is absence of frost the influences
of climate are debilitating as a rule,
and this is especially true where the
temperature is high, and the humidity
of the atmosphere great. However, Mr..
Williams tells US officially that the
average temperature at Manila is about
7S3 degrees Fahrenheit. The extremes
are not wide apart.
During 1898 ne knew of no tempera-
ture as low as 81 degrees Fahrenheit
i'll any of the islands, while there was
none N Manila below the sixties. Ma
Mia Bay is practically an inland sea.
Manila lies near to the ocean shore and
the large and rapid Pasig River flows
through the heart of the city. Thus
it is easy to understand that Manila
has constantly a supply Of fresh air and
sea breezes. The Consul thus con-
tinues:
The sewers of Manifa~ are not good
and can never be first. class, because of
It's low level, but the rainfall here is
above 10 feet per annum and quite
evenly distributed, so that the streets
are rain swept and the sewers well
flushed almost every day. There is also
an advantage in hot, wet weather
which hastens the decay of vegetable
or animal matter, this soon rotting and
being washed away.
The city water supply is abundant
The water is carried in large iron pipes
about seven miles from springs, and is
exceptionally pure and agreeable to
taste 1 use it every day as a beverage
and have never experienced i'll effects

In filthy quarters smallpox may be
found almost any day; but few deaths
result, and the sanitary measures of
the present government have been Of
benefit. The death rate is small, and
it is only necessary to live properly to
be entirely healthy.

HE CONSPIRACY AGAINST THE
UNITED STATES

ON1I ELL = L AL ED.
Modesto News: The New York
Times prints a careful resume of the
European plot to Illustrate and humil-
late the United States early in the
Spanish trouble and it leaves no doubt
upon the mind that France was at the
bottom of the conspiracy, which in
cluded Russia, Austria and Germany.
The scheme was a big one, and had
every feature of diplomatic plausibility.
An understanding was entered into that
these Powers should throw their SYM
pathy with Spain, and give the United
States to understand that they would
not tolerate an armed intervention with
Spain's possessions. Germany, it seems,
made her consent conditional on Eng
lands joining in the plot. This Eng
land fatty refused to do, Whereupon
Germany backed out, and the scheme
went to pieces OF the substantial
truth of this statement there is not now
a reasonable doubt, nor need there be,
when it is understood that the reigning
influences of the monarchial Govern :
ments on the continent, under all their
diplomatic suavity, regard the growing
power of the United States With alarm
and hatred and France, governed in
the main by commercial considerations
had invested EGO, 100000 in Spain. The
attitude of the official press of Austria,
Russia and Germany at the time of
the plot was Matching is now unmis-
taxable, and is curious reading when
the three nations have virtually come
to their marrow bones in treating with
the United States.
STATE HISTORY.
Red Bluff Peoples Cause: The Native
Sons are considering a proposition to
endow a Chair of State History at
Berkeley. 1t is an excellent idea. Cali
fornia is rich in history of a unique
kind, and students at the State Uni
versity ought to be enabled to become
thoroughly familiar with it. The order
of Native Sons and that of the Native
Daughters have a large combined mem
.bership, and it ought to be an easy
matter for them to raise sufficient
funds to endow chair of California

Marysville Appeal: Professor Foster,

a magnetic shock from the sun affects

wounds.
The British transports Pavonia and
Malta sailed this afternoon from South
ampton with troops of Sir Redvers Bull
ler'S army corps. There was a renewal
of the scenes of enthusiasm that marked
the departure of the guards yesterday.
Enormous crowds gathered at the quay
to witness the embarkation. All the
transports that were due to sail last even
ing and this evening from Woolwich and
Tillbury were detained in consequence of
the heavy fog that has enveloped the
London district for forty-eight hours, Sc
riously impeding the embarkation of
troops. 1t is expected that they will leave
tomorrow.
The departure of the last battalions of
the Coldstream Guards from Waterloo
Station to-day was witnessed by great
crowds, although the fog was so dense
that from the sidewalks the troops could
scarcely be seen.

NEWS OF VICTORIES
GRATIFIES lONDONERS

LONDON Oct. 22.-Despite the fog the
London newsboys found to-day ready sale
for their extras announcing the continued
victories in South Africa. The losses in
killed and wounded were the subject of
pulpit references in all the churches es-
pecially the Catholic churches, owing to
the disasters that befell the Irish Fusi-
leers.
The vicinity Of the War Office was
crowded all day by anxious inquirers for
the latest information. The greatest anX-
iety and suspense existed regarding the
losses at Glands Laagte, and as to the
fate Of the Hussars, who pursued the
Beers from Glencoe. Among the callers
at the War Office were the Lord Chief
Justice of ireland, Sir Peter O'Brien, who
Irish troops; Baron MacNaughton, Lord
Stanley, Lord George Hamilton. Secre-
tary Of State for India; Mrs Hammer
sley, whose husband was wounded at
Glencoe: Joseph Chamberlain and Arthur
j. Balfour, Lady Randolph Churchill and
other well-knoWn society women.
Typewriter copies Of the reports of
General Sir George Stewart White were
posted on bulletin boards and read to the
crowds amid much enthusiasm, while the
additions to the list of killed and wounded
at Glencoe were received with manifesto
tions of personal bereavement.
The stream of callers at the War Of
flee showed little diminution as the even
ing advanced. Everybody was gratif1ed
to read the kindly message from the
Queen and disappointed at the absence
of news from Glencoe, many arguing that
communication must be cut off, as other
