THREE VITAL QUESTIONS.
Powers Will Insist ON Removal
From Power of the DOyvager.

EOWcrS Will Insist ON removal
From Power of the DOwager.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-It was stated
today In quarters well versed in Chinese
affairs that outside of the questions of
indeminity, punishme1ts, etc. now under
negotiation at Pekin.s there are three
determined, viz: First, the removal OF
the empress dowager, personally and
through the influence of her advisers,
from all participation in the Chinese
government; second, the creation of an
indemnity fund by the increase of Chi
ma S customs revenue, either by the pay
ment of the duties IN gold or by doubling
the present silver duties; and third, the
establishment of q minister of foreign
affairs in place of the. old and curlber-
some system of the tsung Ii yamen. The
demand for the retirement of the en-
press doWager is said to result from the
conclusion now generally accepted that
the imperial government of China was
responsible for the Boxer uprising. AS
the empress dowaeef was the ruling au-
thorlty of the imperial government dur
1ng the uprising, this responsibility is
prought home directly to her 49,
Ine plan of doubling China's customs
duties has arisen from the need of find
ing source to pay war indemniti9s
which the various powers demand.
The plan of substituting a minister OF
foreign affairs in place of the tsung Ii
yamen has long been in contemplation,
as foreign representatives have found It
very difficult to deal with this mixed

1t was a busy day for the governor,
but most gratifying one to the success
of his mission. Large audiences and
great enthusiasm greeted him upon ev-
cry occa sion
The Republicans Of Anoka, one of the
strong Republican towns of the state
opened their eyes yesterday to the most
complete surprise they have perha ,s wit
messed for many a day. Since the be-
ginning of the campaign Tams Bixby 5
nigh privates of that place have labored
necessarily to arouse an immovable pref
udice against Gov. Lind because of a
grievance which, forsooth, they claimed
title to. The two Republican papers
Of the town have contributed their
most vigilant efforts to fostering this
spirit of hostility and what help was
needed from the state committee was
q cheerfully and abundantly given. SO
determined were the Republicans OF
@4noka to keep Gov. Lind from delivering
speech in their. town this fall that ef-
forts were made to rent all the halls in
the town, so that he would be without
place in which to speak. But this
plan failed, as did all others. A local
newspaper man, fraught with the spirit
both of the edict that had gone forth
to keep Lind out of Anoka. even went
to a prominent Democrat and made the
overture that if the Democrats would
agree not to have the governor speak
there during the campaign, they, the Re
publicans, would consent to steer
their Van SAINT, of Winona, around the
town!
The magnanimity of this gracious Of
fer did not commend itself to the Demo-
crat, who could think of no reason for
wanting Van SAINT to stay away from
-Ano1a, believing that every time he
mounts the stump the success of the
Democratic ticket is aided that much,
and so he had to decline the proffer. The
consequence was that Gov Lind did
invade Anoka, and his reception (and
this was the surprise) was a most cordial
and enthusiastic one. He spoke in the
town hall, which was packed to over
flowing, and it is barely possible that
some few in the audience were Repub-
icans. The Wise murder trial. which is
in progress in the town, had been alb
sorbing the attention of the politicians
for the past week or two but they
found time to leave the court room and
pause in their discussion of the merits
of the startling case, and attended the
meeting occasioned by the presence of
Gov. Lind in their town. 1t was ter
rible jolt to the "old boys who had
worked so faithfully to keep John Lind
out of Anoka" "

Mortality Among British Troops Is
Almost as Great as in the More
Active Stages of the
War

LONDON, Nov. 3-The South African
situation is improving and Lord Roberts
will shortly return to England with u
majority of his staff. Arrangements are
being made in Cape Town to send .he
first batch of refugees back to Johannes
burg, and accommodation is being pro-
vided at Bfoemfontein for garrison of
1000.
Nevertheless the activity of the Beers
continues. On Oct. rs a commando of
300 captured a garrison of thirty men at
Reddersburg, but afterward released
them. Trains from the south to Pre-
toria are attacked by the Beers almost
daily. On Oct. "A the burghers occupied
Konyfontein.
On the other hand, Gen. Knox has in
f1icted a reverse on Gen. Dewet's force
near Paris, capturing two guns, one of
them weapon lost by the British in the
Sannas Post affair.
The daily list of casualties is heavy.
During the month of October the British
lost 165 killed, including Is officers. and Il
who died of wounds, S67 who died Of
disease % who died of accidents and 81
captured or missing, total almost equal
to the mortality average during the
war.
DOESN'T BELIEVE 1T
The Daily Express publishes sensational
statements that the Boer revival is more
serious that has hitherto been believed
and that in consequence Lord Roberts
return is likely to be still further post
poned. 1t says also that no considerable
party of troops will return before Janu-
ary or February, while the regimental
drafts from England will continue and
5000 horses will be sent out
The paper definitely declares that the
Beers are well armed and abundantly
supplied with ammunition and that the
campaign is likely to last another six
months.
In the best informed quarters, however,
it is said there is no ground for the
pessimism of the Daily Express.

The Republican campaign has been a
failure. The full diuner pail argument
has been repudiatcd by the workingmen,
and the Republicans are compelled to
confess that a large proportion of the la
Dor vote will be cast for the Democratic
ticket Besides believing with the Dem
ocrats in the general doctrine Of equal
rights to ali and special privileges to
none, the laboring men are against the
trusts, the large army and the colonial
policy. The laborng men are. also drawn
to the Democratic party by the fact that
our party is opposed to government by
injunction, to the blacklist and to Chinese
immlgra tion, and in favor of arbitration
and of cabinet officer selected to repre-
sent the wage, earners.
The Republicans are now hoping to
hold their strength among the farmers,
but they have no policy which will benefit
the farmer. The man who makes his
living on the farm is the victim of all
the vicious legislation for which the Re
publican party is responsible and re-
ceives none of the benefits conferred by
special legislation upon corporations and
syndica tes, The farmer pays more than
his share of the taxes and receives less
than his share of the consideration of
government. Republican policies have
lessened the value of farm lands, in
creased the proportion of tenants ard
have driven the farmers sons away from
the farm thus intensifying the struggle
for existence in the cities.
