Miller Thompson Nuptials.

Grand Forks Herald.
Yesterday, (November 29th,) at
high noon, at the home Of the
BRIDES brother, j. w. Thompson,
.O0S Belmont avenue, occurred the
wedding of Truman g. Miller and
Miss Emma Thompson. The
wedding was strictly family affair
and vas one Of the prettiest that
has ever been held in the city.
The bride and groom we're unat-
tended. Prof. Woodwork pro-
nouncing the words that made the
two one. The bride has been a
resident of Grand Forks for some
time past and for sever raj years has
been a clerk in the Office of the
register of deeds Of Grand Forks
county. She has a very large
circle of acquaintance by whom
she is held in the highest esteem.
The groom is a member of the firm
of LaRue & Miller, grain and fuel
dealers Of Devils Lake, and is one
of the most prominent and highly
respected business men of that city.
After the ceremony a combination
wedding and Thanksgiving dinner
was served those present. Those
present from out of the city we're
Miss Ellison, a cousin of the bride,
of Winnipeg, and D. B. Thomp-
son, a brother, of Bemidji. Miss
Calvert played the wedding march.
The presents that we're received
were both numerous and elegant
in the extreme and testified to high
esteem in which the contracting
parties are held. Mr. and Mrs
Miller left on the evening train
for Devils Lake, where the groom
has a very pretty home prepared
for the reception of his bride. The
departure Of Miss Thompson from
the city is deeply regretted by all
but Grand Forks loss will be
Devils Lake'sgain, and the young
couple will be followed to their
new home by the best wishes Of a
host Of friends here.
Mr.. and Mrs. r. C. Miller will be
sat home" after December 18th.

to, the organization and govern
ment of provinces, finding COM
pletion in a general government
for the islands, thus carrying into
the experiment there the spirit of
our own institutions and govern
ment. is plainly shown in the in
structions. If any expected that
there would be intimation Of what
should be the ultimate relations
OF the islands to this country, they
ignored the scrupulous Difference
the president has always shown to
the legitimate jurisdiction Of con-
gress. He considers that, until
congress acts, he is using his pow
ers as, comander-in-chie to quiet
rebellion, restore order, and en-
deavor to establish civil govern
ment. If any expected any init
nation Of ultimate purpose to
scuttle they will, of course, be
disappointed.
The next large topic Of general
interest is the isthmian canal, the
Hepburn bill for the construction
of which is pending, and from the
path Of which thestate department
announces it has removed diploma
tic obstacles. The president
states that the concessions to the
maritime company and the Eyre
Cragin syndicate have been an
nualled, and that negotiations
are pending with Nicaragua and
Costa Rica having in view the
construction under the auspices of
the United States. AS a further
move to clear the way he urges
upon the senate the consideration
Fof the Hay-Pauncefote treaty that
any possible objection based on
the Clayton-Bulwe treaty may be
forestalled. ST. Paul Dispatch.

OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE COUNTY AN:
THE CITY OF DEVILS LAKE.
FRIDAY, DEC. Z. 1900.
THEPREs1DENT,s MESSAGE.

Inevitably the annual message
of the president contains much
that is Of only special interest and
the public attention turns first to
the treatment of those subjects
which are uppermost in general
thought and esteemed ofthe great
est public interest. The president
himself, yields to this sentiment
and opens his message with a com-
plete review of the Chinese COM
plication,~ its historical sources,
the course of events from the up
rising to the relief Of the legations
in Pekin; the policy pursued by
this government and the success
full efforts to secure unanimity of
action by all the governments
interested. Little is stated that
was not known, but it gives the
stamp Of authenticity to what had
rested in unofficial statement,
while it disposes Of much that
was unauthentic rumor. IT con-
veys the assurance that the gen.
eral line Of conduct laid down in
the note Of July has been and will
be steadily adhered to. Chinese
territorial integrity will be insisted
upon; treaty rights made secure;
commercial and other interests
safe-guarded for thefuture; indem-
nifty for actual damages obtained,
and punishment of those respon-
sible for the crimes be compelled
but execution left to Chinese
authorities. The recital closes
with the statement that the presi-
dent concurs' with the suggestion
of Russia that, if negotiations can
not be conducted satisfactorily by
the representatives at Pekin, they
be transferred to the tribunal Of
arbitration contemplated by the
conference Of the Hague.
The next topic to which readers
will turn for information, both as
to what has beendone and what is
intended or recommendedrto be
done, is the treatment Of affairs lin
the Philippines. It is not only
that the acquisition and DISPOSE
ton Of the islands formed the
storm center Of the late president
ial campaign which makes this
topic second, possibly first, in i'm.
portance, but expectation has been
excited that the message would
contain explicit statements of the
policy the president would pursue
if congress leaves matters in his
hands, orof the legislation congress
should enact if it thinks best tc
assume control. The message is
replete as to what has been done
giving in full the instructions to
the commission, Of which Judge
Taft is chairman, and which as.
sumed civil jurisdiction last Sep.

THE MAN WHO FORESAW.

THE MAN WHO FORESAW.
On that May morning when the
news Of Dewey's victory electrified
the nation The Chicago Inter
Oceans Washington correspon-
dent sought Cabinet members
opinions as to its larger results.
All rejoiced in the victory and
praised the courage and conduct
Of Dewey and his men. Some per-
ceived that SPANS rule in Asia
was ended, and hat the Philip
pines we're ours for the taking.
But only one clearly understood,
or at least was then willing to ex-
press, the true significance Of this
splendid triumph of our arms.
Secretary of Agriculture James
Wilson said in effect that no mill
tary success Of the century would
prove so beneficial to American
farmers as this. He pointed out
that China and the adjacent coun-
tries were-the greatest undeveloped
markets for American products on
the globe. He foresaw that we
would take and keep the Phil D.
pines. He declared that their
possession would give us such
weight and influence in Asia as we
had never had. He predicted that
by reason of holdin them our
Asiatic trade would grow by leaps
and bounds,
The figures given in Secretary
Wilson's annual report, just issued
prove the accuracy Of his forecast.
In 1896 our total exports to Asia
and Oceanica were only $43, 000, 900
Of which only $9,700,000 were
agricultural products. In 1900
our exports to the same countries
are $lo7, 100000, Of which s30,oo0,-
900 are farm products. Our total
exports to the Philippines have
grown from less than 100000 to
more than $2,600,0OO. Our agri-
cultural exports to those islands
have increased from less than $23,-
600, to ST., 100000.
Our greatest farm export staples
are wheat and cotton. In 1896
we sent to the Orient 1,21l,OOO
barrels Of wheat -four, valued a.

SITUATION AT HONOLULU.
Surgeon of Military Hospital There
Makes a Report.

Surgeon OF Military Hospital There
Makes Report.
washington, Jan. 4.-Surgeon General
Sternberg has received the following
from Major Taylor, the surgeon in
charge at the military hospital in Hon
Olulu, dated Dec. 10:
I have the honor to report that on
the'1Ith and 18th of this month there
were five deaths from bubonic plague in
the Chinese quarters of Honolulu, and
another occurred this morning.
The whole regiment of the Hawaiian
National guards isolated the infected
districts, and the board of health is
making q house to house inspection and
disinfectiOn. All cOrpses have been Gre
mated, and / think there will be but
little danger of the spread of infection
among the troops. There is little doubt
about the diagnosis in most of the
cases"
Enclosed in the report is an order
issued by Lieutenant Ketcham, in
charge of headquarters at Camp Nc
Kinley. directed to the troops. It for
bids all soldiers and employees in the
service Of the command TO enter the
city Of Honolulu or the infected dis
tricts. except on duty, or by special
written permission of the officers in
command. The pass list is suspended,
and the men are restricted to the limits
Of KapiOlani park.
Surgeon General Sternberg is not
alarmed at the conditions in Honolulu
as set out in the report, and believes
the measures adopted at Camp McKin-
ley are adequate. He viii not recon-
mend that the army transports be pre-
vented from touching at Honolulu.

Victoria, B. c., Jan. 4.-Manila papers
say that an epidemic like plague is
Threatening Manila. The Manila Times
states:
1T has been learned from various au-
thenuc sources that in many of our
closely neighboring towns a serious cpl
demic, bordering on plague, is raging.
The towns principally affected are Qua
dalupe Mandalogana, Pineda and Ma
labeOn, besides a number of others. The
cause is said to be due to eating the
flesh from animals which have died
from disease.
Whatever the cause, there is little
doubt that a species Of plague exists
which, in most cases, proves fatal. It
is said that the disease carries off its
victims within thirty eight hours from
it's attack and in these country towns
medical aid or supplies are not to be
had readily and then only in limited
way.
Not only this, but burial of the
corpses CT those who have died from
this disease is carelessly conducted ana
absolutely no precautions are taken.
Natives do not understand the care
which should be taken, but rely too
much on their faith and superstition
1t has been decided, at the instance
of the Russian minister of finance, to
dispatch a sanitary corps Of doctors and
Sisters Of Mercy to Manchuria to COM
bat the plague which has broken out
among the Chinese labOrers on the
ManchuFian railway.

Chicago, Jan. At was announced to-

fluence with Great Britain to avert the
war, but the president declined TO IN
terfere, and nothing has occurred to
change his determination.
Urge American Mediation.
In certain quarters there is a dis
position to urge American mediation,
on the ground that under the treaty Of
The Hague conference the United
States could extend its mediation to
Great Britain without offending that
power. In answer to this suggestion,
it is said first. that the United States
has not yet become a party to the con-
vention. because it has not yet been
ratified by the senate; and, second, the
American delegates representing the
United States at the conference guard
ed the historic position Of the United
States by the declaration that nothing
contained in the convention should be
so construed as to require this govern
ment to depart from its policy OF not
Interfering with foreign questions.
Il is stated that the movements IN
itfated by Europeans to obtain the me
Cfiation of this government viii De
fruitless of results. unless, as stated,
they first induce Great Britain to init
mate TO this government her willing
ness to accept the exercise Of the pres
ident'S good offices.

Should Also Express a Desire For
This Country to Use Its Good Of

New York, Jan. A special to the
He.,-l4 A.. oi4t !, asnington says: There is
reason to believe that the Transvaal
government has only recently request
ed this government to use its good Of
fees to bring an end TO its war with
Great Britain. The proposition came
through the American consul at Pre-
tOria. No answer has been given by the
state department, and unless Great
Britain intimates that she is DESTROYS
Of the president exercising his good
Offices, there is no reason TO believe
that he will comply with the BOer re-
quest.
It is to be expected that a reply will
be made acknowledging the receipt Of
the consuIs presentation, which he will
transmit to State Secretary Reitz, but
this probably is as far as the govern
ment will care to go at this time.
It car be stated on authority that
there is no intention on the part Of the
administration to depart from its pol
icy of non-inteTference unless requests
for mediation are received simultane-
0usiy from Great Britain and the
Transvaal. Just before the outbreak Of
hostilities, the BOer government aD-
pealed to the president to use his in

ITALY'S CONSENT is GAINED
AGREES TO THE CHINESE OPEN
DOOR PROPOSITION.
Her Reply to the United States Was
More Prompt Than That Of Any
Other Nation.

Washington, Jan. 4-Italy has re-
turned a favorable response to the re-
cent note Of the state department re-
specti1g the open door in China. Italy
was lhe last Of the great powers re-
main.ng to be heard from.
1t is learned that although Italy was
the last Of the powers addressed to re-
turn an answer to Secretary Hays
Overtures. that government really was
more prompt than any other I'm the
negotiations This is explained by the
fact that the italian government vas
addressed on the subject some time af-
ter the other continental nations had
it under consideration owing to the
fact that our ambassador, Mr.. Draper
was away from his pest on leave OF
absence in the United States when the
identical note IF instructions was
sent out, and it was regarded as best
to make no departure from the rule
which had been adopted in the case Of
the other governments OF addres4ine
them through the United States rep
rssentatives at the foreign capitols.
Immediately upOn Mr. Diapers re-
turn to Rome at q not distant date in
the past, he laid the matter before the
italian government, which, therefore.
has acted with more promptness than
most Of the other powers.
The agreements have not yet been
I reduced to their final form but the
state department win now enter up0n
the task of putting them into shape
/ Of precis. and as in each case the agree
ment to the principles involved in our

/ terms according to the department Of
/ ficials it is not anticipated that amy
difficulty VIII be experienced in accom-
/ plishing this work satisfactorily.
! Pending that outcome, the state de-
/ partment does not intend to make any

act terms Of the agreement. though it
