Commissioner idea of the Issue in the
Philippines.
ITHACA, N. Y, Aug. 23.-Commis.
sioner Jacob G.. Schurman has reached
Ithaca. Since leaving Manila he has.
he says, steadily refused to discuss
Philippine affairs although he has been
besieged by reporters everywhere. How.
ever, he now makes the following state.
ment for the Associated Press:
1.-The United States, having assumed
sovereignty over the Philippine islands
by virtue of a treaty of peace with
Spain, the chief executive of the repub.
lie is engaged in establishing that SOW.
ereignty. The issue today is net a com
mercial one, although the natural re.
sources of the Philippine islands are OF
great value and want only American
capital for their development. Nor is
the question one of political expedience
or party principles, although in its col
lateral branch there may be aspects
upon which political parties may prop
erly divide, but the question today is
neither one of commercial advantage
nor of partisan politics. It is a purely
moral question. The vital issue is the
honor of the nation, the protection Of
loyal Filipinos and the fulfllment Of
our obligations to the nations of the
world involved in our acceptance Of
sovereignty"

Civil War in Cape Colony Predicted II
Hostilities Begin.
CAPE Town, Aug. 23.-Sunday was
observed throughout the Orange Free
State and Cape Colony with humilia-
ton, prayer and sermons advocating a
peaceful solution of the crisis. Mr..
Smyttler, a leading Dutch Reform
preacher here, held forth on the close
ties uniting the Cape Dutch to those of
the Transvaal, which, he added, were
members Of the great Afrikander fam
lily. If war was declared, he said, Great
Britain would commit a heinous crime
before God and man, resulting in civil
war in Cape Colony.
There was evidence of growing un-
~easiness at johannesburg. Great crowds
gather at the railway stations, express.
ing disapproval at the departures for
Cape Colony and Durham, Natal.
According to Afrikander reports the
Transvaal's reply is a counter proposal
of a five years retrospective franchise
in the election of a president and on
increased representation. 1t is said that
the suggestion is made to submit all
other differences to arbitration.

THE GRANT.

The transport Grant, now en- route
from the Philippines with the North
Dakota volunteers, is a sister ship of the
transport Sheridan, which is bringing
home the Minnesota and South Dakota
troops. Her name, when the Atlantic
Transport line owned her, was the Mo-
hawk; the Sheridan was formerly known
as the Massachusetts. The Grant is six
years old and is of iron construction. She
has four decks, eight feet six inches be-
tween each one, and can go at the rate
of twelve knots an hour. She has 1900
tons displacement, and can carry $3.50
cubic feet of freight. Before the gov
eminent bought her she had cabin
capacity for seventy-four passengers and
room below deck for 800 horses and for
1900 tons of coal in the bunkers. 1t re-
quires sixty-two tons of coal to run her
twenty-four hours.
When the Grant left Manila she car
ried 10000 gallons of drinking water and
had capacity for 100000 more. Her
refrigerator machine a make enough
cold for 2,700 quarters of beef and enough
ice to supply a regiment plentifully dur
ing the entire voyage. After the gov
eminent had remodeled the Grant, she
had room for eighty-six officers and
1880 men, and this is her capacity at
present.
This boat made it's first trip for the
government early in the present year.
On Jan. 10 she sailed from New York for
Manila and made the run Of $4,000 miles
via Suez by March 8. From Manila she
came back to San Francisco, arriving
there on April 80, having BEEN out thir-
ty five days. The present trip is her
second from the Philippines with re-
turning volunteers.

President McKinley's speeches are
not just at present, but
there is always some gem of patriot
ism in each one of them, as at Platts-
burg a day or so ago, when he said, in
speaking Of the Philippine question:
sour patriotism is neither sectional
nor sectarian. We may differ in our
political and religious beliefs. but we
are united for country. Loyalty to
the government is our national creed.
We follow all of us one flag. 1t SYM
boliZes our purposes and II aspira-
tons; it represents what we believe
and what we mean to maintain, and,
wherever it floats, it is the flag of the
free, the hope of the oppressed; and
wherever it is assailed, at any sacri-
flee it will be carried to a triumphant
peace"

A matter of interest to North Da-
kota will come up in the session of
congress next winter-that Of states
being given by the government the
privilege of leasing vacant government
land to stOckmen. Secretary of Agri-
culture Wilson says:
The policy of leasing the grazing
lands Of the west by the states cannot
but operate very be%neficially to those
states, and would eliminate much of
the trouble which the west is now
having Over the range question. Let
the title to the land remain in the fed
eral government by all means, but
give the states the use of the land-i.
e., the money which would be derived
from their rental. Most of the west
ern states have comparatively small
settled areas, and these must bear the
burden of caring for the remainder of
$he state which is government prop
erty. 1t would be Il very dangerous
move to give the land itself to the
states because before long there would
then be neither state or government
land; but if it is simply a question of
the state dispOsing of the annual in
come from rentals, a proper system
Of expenditures would soon become
established. This would practically
dispose Of the range question, as
leases could be made for terms of
years, and there would be then no con-
fict of right"

There is just a little of shop talk in
the Mandan Pioneer this week. The
Independent thinks the Pioneer should
not have turned it's mud battery on
Bismarck, and observes:
"Bismarckers are Il good lot of peo-
pie, loyal to their own town, and al
ways looking out for the best interests
of the great northwest"
10 which the Pioneer answers:
'Some small individuals are never
happy. II last weeks issue of the
Pioneer had been different from what
it was, they would have said the Pho
neer was tied up with Bismarck, and
dare not criticise the late course of
some of the citizens of that town. Now
that it voiced the sentiments of the
people of Mandan, its critics are not
happy, and they almost express regret
that Bismarck did not get the shops.
But then, we don't like to believe
that all those cruel things the Pioneer
said We're the sentiments of the people
of Manlan.

Governor Lee of South Dakota has
delivered himself of another effusion,
regarding the mastering out of the
volunte Ter troops at San Francisco.
He says the government has 4 pur-
pose in this, as it will keep the worm
condition of the men from being
made known to the people Of the
states, thus harming politically the
party in power, and enable the new
regiments to be recruited from the
idle men and those who are unfor-
tunate. AS the volunteers themselves
requested to be mustered. out at
Frisco. and the government did moth
ing but to accede to the request of the
men, the silly declaration of the gov
ernor Of South Dakota proves nothing
except that he is full Of prunes, as

Senator Hansbrough has been untir-
ing in his efforts to seure low rates for
the returning soldiers. While the
towns in North Dakota would find it
difficult to raise the funds necessary
to secure a special train to bring the
boys home, the volunteers will appre-
ciate the efforts that have been made
to enable them to come home at the
smallest possible expense, and if q
rate can be secured on the Southern
Pacific. the expense of home coming
from San Francisco will be small.

of 27,622 regulars. In San Francisco,
ready to sail, are 2,801 men, which will
make the aggregate 30,423. The three
regiments organizing at Manila, and in
service now as far as recruited, will bring
the aggregate to 34,2SS. Ten now vol
unteer regiments, whose ranks are now
full, can depart for Manila as soon as
transports are ready. This gives an ag-
gregate of 4s,951 fighting men who
should be in the Philippines before the
end of November. Nearly 10000 more
recruits could be accepted before the
maximum of 100000 men is reached.
They can easily be obtained long before
ships could be secured to take them
across the Pacific. The problem of ocean
transportation must be allowed for, but
in any case the end of the rainy season
will find a powerful American army in
Luzon, and requirements in hand, if
needed.

Budd Reeve says five cents from
each tax payer in the state would
raise the $4,000 required to bring the
North Dakota boys home. We don't
know how many taxpayers there are,
but there are about $1,000 voters, and
five cents from each one of them
would raise less than $3,OOO-which
suggests that Buds figures may need
a little revision.
