LIKES Til COUNTRY.
North Dakota Soldier Likes the Phil
ippines, But Not the
War.

John 3. Halaas of Co. I, 36th Inf, u.
S. V, Manila, writes the following to his
brother, County Commissioners Halaas
of Darlington under date of Dec. "a:
I am well. as usual, although somewhat
tired of this kind of life. We have had
pretty tough times, but hope it will soon
be better. We have been on the go ever
the 18th of Oct, chasing the enc
and they are now split up into small
bands. Now tits almost impossible to
get hold of them for they won't come out
in open battle. They are hiding in the
mountains and only come out when they
are hungry, then they steal, rob and do
anything, and we can't tell when we are
safe. During the night, when they. are
not easily seen, is their favorite time for
an attack, so in this way we have to be
on the lookout at night as we'll as in the
day time. But we are still chasing them,
always killing a few, and capturing some,
and in this way the number of hostile
Filipinos is decreasing so they must
surely quit after awhile. We now have
Aguinaldo surrounded and hope soon to
catch him. So far as the wal news IS
concerned, you know as much about it as
I do, for you read the daily papers, and
when you see where the 36th is, you can
cay "there is John Also" At present we
are about $50 to 800 miles north of Ma
Mia.
The country I like very much. There
are many mountains, but fine valleys and
fats between, and deep ravines in places.
The hillsides are covered with timber;
the soil is rich and very productive. The
principal crops are rice, sugar. tobacco,
coffee, hemp and cotton, and all kinds of
fruits as you a name. The fruit trees
bear fruit the year around, and one can
see fruit and blossoms on the same tree
at the same time. I tell you it is nice.
If the natives only knew how to utilize
the land they could live as in Paradise,
but they are too lazy to work much.
They live mostly on fish. They catch
fish most any place where there is water,
even in the middle of the rice fields,
where there are small runs and creeks.
The climate is rather damp and very
warm-the thermometer is about 80 in
the shade at this time of the year. There
is a disease in the islands now, some.
thing like smallpox, from which made
of the natives are dying. From our
camp today I counted fifteen funerals
mostly children, so you can see they are
dying off fast. So far the soldiers have
escaped the disease.

Mckinley and Roosevelt.

The ticket nominated by the
national republican convention in
Philadelphia last week is a strong
one; it is the best that could have
been selected and it's a winner.
The nomination of William Nc.
Kinley for the presidency was a
a foregone conclusion. The rec
ord of his splendid administration
both in national and foreign af-
fairs, makes his reelection to the
highest Office in the gift Of the
people an assured fact. Few
presidents have made as brilliant
a record.
Theodore Roosevelt, as a vice
presidential candidate, will add
strength to the ticket. His rec
ord in The Spanish American war
alone makes HIM the strongest
man that could have been select
ed. Besides this he is a states
man from the ground up, and as
governor of New York he has
proven himself capable of filling
with honor the second place in
the national administration. TAX
en- altogether the ticket could not
be improved upon, and it will
have the hearty support Of all re-
publicans everywhere.

Money Getting Cheap.

We are informed by Banker
Hamilton that during the last two
months he has loaned out about
100000 to cattlemen in this
vicinity. These loans have been
made on cattle security and the
rate Of interest is ten per cent.
The fact that money can be Sc
cured at this rate, when former
~ eighteen per cent was charged,
has given a great impetus to the
cattle business, and never before
in one season have so many cattle
been purchased. Even the small
est ranchmen have made pur-
chases and if the price of cattle
continues high-as it is almost
sure to do-this will be the most
prosperous year IN the history of
the country. 1t is fortunate
thing for the cattlemen that they
have been enabled to get their
money at home, instead of from
foreign commission mon, and Mr..
Hamilton states that he can fur
nish a considerable additional
amount of money to any who wish

sity and propriety of the honest
co operation of capital to meet
new business conditions the
platform condemns call conspir-
acies and combinations intended
to restrict business, to create
monopolies, or to control prices, "
and favors legislation that "will
efectually prevent such abuses
and secure the rights of produc-
ers and laborers. This may not
please the professional foes of
trusts, but it will appeal to all
sensible men who appreciate the
danger of legislative interference
with the natural development Of
industrial organization.
The platform so larely faces
the problems of expansion, and
offers, for their solution princi
pies which all loyal and inteIll
gent Americans will approve.
The republican party counsels no
shrinking from national duty and
presses forward to fulfill Ameri-
cas- destiny. With such a plat
form, and led by president
whose administration has made
the nation victorious in war,
prosperous at home, respected
abroad as never before, the repub-
lican party will win.

The republican platform adopt
ed at Philadelphia last week clear
ly defines the great issues before
the American people and formu-
Iates positive and constructive
policies for the solution of pend

standard is untlinchingly indors-
ed. Renewed allegiance is pledg.
ed to the twin doctrines of pro
lection and reciprocity. Laws to
enlarge the American merchant
marine are favored, both to ia
cilitate trade and as a means of
national defense. An American
built, owned and controlled 18TH

creation of a department of com
merce is recommended. Nation

CALLING THE SHOTS
A Practice ct Revolver Matches That Seems
Strange to tho Uninitiatsd.

Uninitiated spectators Of the shooting by
the American revolver team at Greenville,
v. j., In their cable match with the French
men last week. were probably mystifed by
the action Of the experts In frequently calling
out hours Of the day utterly regardless Of what
correct time was.
Five o'clock?'" one man asked Of his COM
panton at about half-past 3.
No; 2 o'clock" was the incorrect answer.
That these men were not making datos for
dinner was shown by n conversation that took
place a lew minutes later. One OF the con-
~testants, after just missing a bull eye, turned
10 q friend and asked,
"How's thatp"
One O'Clock; try 1t at S o'clock" the friend
All right, I will" But he knew very well
that the rules Of the match called for con-
tinpous shooting. and kept right on.
SO II was every day during the shoot; Every
ono connected with the match would occa-
sionally mention some hour any hour but
the right one, apparently-and no one seemed
10 think It strange.
When asked for an explanation OF this after
the matchl Sergt. Petty, the, crack shot OF
the police force, burst ont laughing.
Why, he said, Il never thought before
how funny : must sound 70. an outsider. You
-ee that's the way we call targets. In our
minds they are arranged liks the dials OF clocks.
The pnrt that would be due north to q map
maker Il L. O'Clock, and so on all the way round.
IL a man shoots too low and n little 10 the left,
you see he's : or half past 7 and be should aim
at | o'clock. or half-past I In order TO correct
himself. It's Just an easy way OF calling shots
