Case Dismissed.

The case of the city against Jack
Ferguson for selling liquor on Sunday
was dismissed by the Mayor yesterday
morning, the evidence produced not
being sufficient to ho.d him. Mr..
Schmidt, the proprietor of the Lodge
saloon, where Fulkerson is employed,
said chat he, and not the accused, was
the proper man to answer to such
charges, as Fulkerson was only an en-
ploye and worked according to orders
from him.

That the county is richer than i,

fact that during the month of Sep-

THE South African war has So
far brought to the English forces
a series of disasters. They are
greatly outnumhcrei by the Beers,
who have also sustained their rcl,u-
ton for being hard fighters. Eng

army into South Africa. and the
scene will prob:hIy change when
the English take the aggressive

success in this war would bring
tranquility and pro"ressiyeaess 10
South Africa; whereas, should the
Beers be successful, the country
would remain in disturbed cnndi
ton for many years to come, unless
the foreigners are driven ont en-
tirely, a contingency not likely.
The ontlandcrs constitute the larg-
er portion Of the population, they
own over one half of the land. they
ray the major portion of the ex
pcnscs of the Transvaal govern

the country npon invitation of the
Beers themselves; they are oppres
sivciy taxed and denied every RICH!
of citizenship. England may have
placed herself in false position in
having undertaken to redress these
wrongs, but the outlandcrs have
a Just cause. They should have
inaueurated Il revolution.

instruction of Ag,li,uldo is the
result of advice givcn him b> Ger
tain Americans bent on defeating
the treaty and preventing the ces

be indispn'able that Aguinald"

upon the strength Of assurances
made to him by IL number Of un-
scrupuIous Americans who fn'igl'
the treaty by every hook and
crook. The truth of history in
this matter is sure to be develuped.

and representations that he opened
fire upon the United States flag.

SeNE peoplc seem to think the

towards political despotism be-
causc of its policy to suppress an
armed rebellion in the Philippine
Islands by military force. This
idea is but little less than idiotic.
American rule is synonymous with
liberty. In all the history of this
country there has never yet been
nm instance where despotic power
has resulted from IN cxtention OF
the sovereignty of tho United
