the United States, though willing to
use its friendly offices, cannot interviews
unless requested to do so by both bel
ligerents, il may be argued that II the
two eombatants jointly desire peace
they can dispense with the services Of
a mediator and settle the matter be-
tween themselves. To remain passive
until such a contingency arises and
then offer TO mediate would be a cheap
and tawdry act of benevOlence- The es-
sence of mediation is that a friendly
neutral should act spontaneously and
on its initiative.
The end of the war is not Yet in
sight. The defensive campaign IS likely
to be less dramatic than the events Of
the last few months, but it viii be
prOtracted and WeariSOme even to the
cosmopolitan hnanciers, who are solely
responsible for the whole tragedy
Events involving prompt action may
easily happen in other quarters of the
world where the interests of Great
Britain are far more vulnerable and
important than the issues in South At
RIGA, while the shameful inaptitude
which brought about this war must
daily become clearer TO Englishmen, in
spite of all the sophistry of adroit de-
baters.'

gresS, Hon. William II. King, and the
sllver-tongued orator, Hon. Fisher S.
Harris, addressed the Democrats of
Spanish Fork tonight upon the issues
of the day. The meeting house was
nlled TO overlooking with an enthusiast
tic audience. who applauded frequently
the telling hits made by the champions
OF Democracy. Stirring selections were
rendered by the Maccabee band Mr.
Harris was the first speaker. He de-
livered fine address upon the respon-
Slbihty of American citizenship. and
emphasized the statement that no cit
lien can escape the bad results Of bad
government; neither can they elude the
good effects of good government. He
compared the Republican nominee with
the Democratic candidate as a singed
cat to a Bengal tiger. He said he
thought ne could already see in his
minds eye Hammond dancing to the
crack Of Mark Hanna's whip The Re
pUblicans have repudiated silver. Ham
iltOn, Lincoln and James G. Blaine
were bimetallists, as was also William
Mckinley until he came into the tolls
Of Mark Hanna. The hope for the
money of the constitution is with the
Democratic party. 1t would be a dis
couraging blow to the silver forces to
send James T. Hammond to congress.
Mr.. Harris spoke at length upon Re-
publican prosperity. Oar Republican
friends would have US believe that the
SHOWS in the mountains, the dews of
heaven, our mountain streams and the
grass that grows were all caused by the
beneficent Republican administration
We are not 90 abnormally prosperous
as Republican speakers would have US
believe.
THE Republicans are campaigning in
rubber boots on an india rubber plat
form" He claimed they We're trying
to resurrect the skeleton of Grover
Cleveland and brighten people with it.
In conclusion, he said: Look back to
the time when the hand of Jefferson,
guided by high heaven, penned that
immortal declaration. down to the time
when William Jennings Bryan spoke
living truths to living men in the Chi
cago convention, and see the unbroken,
illustrious line"

Judge King was introduced by Chair
man Hughes as our next congressman.

master mechanic for the Oregon Rail-
way & Navigation company before he
became master mechanic of the Tiger
& Poorman Mining company at Burke.
In that position, among other duties he
was charged with the employment and
discharge Of men in the mine.
He testified that he was at Burke
April 20, 1899 the day the Bunker Hill
mine was blown up. The town was
unusually quiet. April 80 all the men
were at work except four. They con-
tinued at work until the 3rd or 18th Of
May, when numbers of them, including
himself, were arrested by the military.
He testified that he had attempted to
continue at work. He had explained to
the officer in charge of the troops that
the manager of the mine was absent
and that great property interests de-
pended upon him. The officer, Major
Morten, replied that martial law had
been declared and that he would have
to go to Wardner. He testified that he
heard Major Morten order one of his
troops to break into his (Gilrs) house.
The soldiers broke in the door.
Harsh and Rude Treatment.
He noticed other instances of a sim
liar character. He testified to general
the arrested miners at the hands of the
troops. Later in the day he was re-
leased and wen back TO the mine with
eight miners and worked all night with
them to get the water which had accu-
mulated out of the mine.
The only disturbance made in Burke
that day was the disturbance created
by the soldiery. There was no necessi-
ty for the soldiers, he said, as civil
processes could have been served In
his opinion the advent of the military
defeated the ends of justice. The gull
ty parties escaped into Montana. Had
the military not been there many of
these would have returned and could
have been arrested.
Mr.. Gill testified that he had been in
formed that no releases from the bull
pen would be made except on the order
of Bartlett Sinclair. BE had an inter
view with Sinclair and had presented
affidavits regarding men who had been
at work at Burfe when the mine at
Wardner was blown up, but he (Sin-
clair) refused to release them, saying
that he took no stock in aftidavits. Sin
clair had informed him that It was the
duty of reputable citizens to bring affi-
davits to convict and not acquit. The

General Davis promised relief to the
party, and requested the mayor TO pro-
vide them transportation. His reply
was that there was not a peso in the
treasury, and that the police were yet
unpaid for their last two months work.
The party of women dispersed quietly,

san Juan, P. r., March 17.-At a
special meeting OF the chamber of
commerce today, it was decided to close
all business houses on Monday to en-
able the merchants TO attend an open
air meeting on the plaza with the OBJ
iect of drawing up a petition to Gov
ernor General Davis demanding imme-
diate congressional decision on the tar
i,f one way or the other. The agree

London, March 1.-THE peaceful con-
quest of the Orange Free State pro-
crosses so evenly that 1t is now believed
that there will be little or no fighting
until Lord Roberts reaches the Vaal
river. How soon he intends to start
out with this objective is not yet limited
at, but the pacificatiOn of the Free
Staters seems now engaging ali his at

doubtless be accomplished with the
