IT is the fashion to run down General

IT is the fashion to run down General
Otis. In such matters as these there
seems to be a sort of stampede, and peo-
pie forget themselves and denounce in
Discriminatory those who may be wor-
thy and competent, simply because
they do not wish to be thought ignO-
rant or blindly subservient to party.
There are some who think 1t shows SUI
perior brains and brave independence
to denounce those in high places. Cen
eral Otis. has probably been the victim
of this sort of thing to considerable ex-
tent. Evidence is not wanting that he
has done as we'll as most commanders
would have done, considering all the cir
cumstances. One of the latest testimo-
malls comes from man who among all
the heroes of the war stands without
peer in the estimation of the American
people. In late interview General
Fred Funston, of Kansas, says: 81
have only this to say of the campaign
in thesPhilippines. Everything is be-
ing done that can be done to carry the
war to an early and successful conclu-
sion. The report that 1 am an anti
expansionist is ridiculous, and not
worthy of serious consideration.
never intimated such q thing. and
have been wrongly quoted in the mat
ter. The people must stop to consider.
when they are passing judgment, that
there are countless condi-
tions to'Cbe. constantly com bstted
and o vercome there before Roadway
can be made. 1 fear that the exact
difficulties of the situation are not full
ly understood. Some mistakes may
have been made. but the campaign has
been conducted in most able and
manner, and every man
has done his best. No grave errors
have occurred, but it is always easy to
look back and comment upon what has |
been done, even though that might
have been accomplished under trying /
circu instances" If some of our club |
room heroes could comprehend the |
justice of Funston's remarks they
mis- ht have some doubts as to their
own omniscience.

certain section of the New Orleans fac
tors who, working hand in hand with
the European manufacturers, are striv-
ing to reduce the price of cotton
through misrepresentation of the ex-
tent of the crop. They have even
stated that the total crop will exceed
eleven million bales. This is the place
for'the southern planters to take stan d
upon their rights and absolutely de-
cline to become the victims of those
who are trying to beat down the mar
ket value of their produce. The facts
are we'll known to them and ignorance
cannot be pleaded longer as an excu Sc
for miscalculatiOD.

AMERICA is going to be the creates,
gamer through the South African war.
American manufacturers and export.
ers in almost every line are feeling the
effect of the extraordinary demand.
Naturally the greatest demand is for
live stock and manufactured food pro-
ducts. The American farmer will
thus reap most of the benefit of the in
creased commercial activity.

Tarlac Is Occupied.

reconnoiter He had With him the Thirty
sixth infantry, Slavan's scouts. Troop r
of the Fourth cavalry, Il battalion of the
TWenty second regiment and Gatling
guns. The scouts, mounted, preceded the
main body up the railroad. They met 100
rebels at Murcia, but they relreated. The
scouts found the depot burning. but eX-
tingushed the fire and saved the building
The main column moved up the road,
but before reaching Tarae, divided, en-
tering the town on two sides at S O'Clock
Without shot being fired The insur-
gents had evacuated the place only a
few hours before, setting fire to the rail
way station and the rolling stock. They
left "a rear guard Of 400 men, who, how
ever, failed to make a stand and cover the
retreat of the main force of the insur-
gents as they had probably been ordered
to do The rebel ordnance is reported to
have been shipped to the town of Odon-
nell. The Americans are continuing their
advance that the insurgents may have no
time to destroy the railroad.

have the highest authority for stating
that the war office is neither misleadin
the public nor keping back anything Of
serious import, nor revising and curtail-
ing bulletins. The dispatches from Cen
erals Butler and White are published in
the precise form in which they are re-
ceived, and there is no ground for the
suspicion that there is bad news in re-
serve when the war Office has nothing to
announce.
Ladysmith is the center Of interest and
anxiety, but the British commander there
is not a good dispatch writer, and evi-
IDENTIFY finds it difficult to express his
meaning clearly and forcibly On this
account the bulletins from him seem
broken and disjointed and are suspected
without reason of being roughly con-
densed at the war office. General Butler
is clearer dispatch writer. as is proved
by his second lucid account of the skip

to tear up railway lines south of De Aar
and other districts in Cape Colony are
not fully confirmed, but serve to empha
size one Of the chief difficulties which will
confront General Butler when mis- army
corps, reinforced from England, is ready
to advance. This will be the protection
of the long line of communications from
CapetoWn and Port Elizab beth, through
d.saffected districts. Boer raiders will
be formidable enough without assistance
from train wreekers in Cape Colony.
Those who know Sir Alfred Miners
stern, unflinching nature have expected
him to make an example of the earliest
traitors in order TO enforce the warming
of his proclamation, and men caught in
the act of tearing up rails would seem
capital subjects for discipline. Sir Alfred
Milner is forced by circumstances to con-
suit Premier Schreiner, whose informa-
ton in regard to the Dutch colony has
been useful in some ways and embar-

his wagons are far behind.
Colonel Hayes has captured Aguinal-

The recent encounters We're too one
sided to be called fights. The insurgents
are mortally afraid of the Americans,
however strong their position. They
make but brief and feeble resistance
and run when the terrible American yell
reaches their ears. Whereupon the AM
orleans pursue them and slay many.
The moral effect of the news that SO, 900
troops are on their way here has been
unauestionably great. The insurgents
are suffering more from disease than
the Americans, owing to poor food, lack
Of medicines and filthy hospitals With the
result that there Is great mortality

1t was enormously stated In an af-
ternoon paper yesterday that F. B.
shuster &, Co. had filed in the superior
court an application for the dissolution

made through a mistake of fact The
crescent Plating company in which
Franklin B. Shuster, president of the

er, filed petition through it's attorney,
benjamin Slade, asking for dissolu-

rise to the publication of the statement
referred to!
In the petition which Is addressed to
the superior court F. B. Shuster and
Frederick L. Kutscher represent that
they are owners of more than third
of the capital stock of the Crescent
Plating company, incorporated under
