DR.. Rood Get. Defeated.

1t will be remembered by our read
ers that last July we published an ar
ticle in regard to DIR. 0. w. Rood In
which we rather severely criticised
him for his seeming lack of skill In
performing an operation upon the eye
Of Gilbert Lovre. This article was
copied by the Brookings REGISTER
without comment. A short time af-
terward Rood began action against
the, REGISTER to recover 5000 dam
ages which he claimed he had sus-
tanned by reason of the publication of
the article.
The case was tried at the recent
term of court in Brookings county
and the doctor was brought down
from his high perch. His attempt to
show that he was an eye and ear spec
ialist was fiat failure. Defendants
showed conclusively that the state
ments made were true and that he
did perform very unskillful opera
tion, A verdict was brought In favor
of the defendants and the costs were
taxed to Rood. Thus IL will be seen
that a newspaper has right to say
anything IL chouses so long as it can
prove what 1t says.-Estelline Tri-
bune.

day between the British and 1900
Beers who were stopped recently from
going south. They were. surrounded
at Orange river and after several
hours fighting We're defeated with
very heavy losses. The Beers reported
defeated are believed to be part Of
Dewet's commando. The Boer gener-
al had 5000 men with him when he
made the break for freedom at Thatsa
N'Chu, and, according to the dis
patches, though he escaped, part of
his forces Were not SO fortunate.
With their lines of escape to the
north blocked they probably doubled
south only to run into a British column
near Orange river. Dewet's force was
twice repulsed before it broke through
the British lines in the n~eighborhood
of Thaba N'Chu.
In the third attack Dewet led in per-
son. With a few determined men he
charged and broke through the Brit
ish lines, the rest Of the commando
following. He was forced, however, to
leave in the hands of the British a
15-pounder and fifteen wagons with
ammunition and stores. ~.

The Evening Standard is supposed
to have special sources for war news,
but its dispatches have not always
been reliable. 1t is also suggested
that, as news of a British victory is
badly. needed just now this alleged
news would have been cabled immedi-
ately to the war office.

Part Of the Village ON the Island Of
Pnnay Destroyed. /,
Manila, Dec. 19.-Dispatches just re-
ceived from Iloilo, Island Of Panay,
say that the insurgents Saturday night
burned a large part of the village Of
Cabatuan. Assistant Surgeon Fred
erick A. Washburn, Jr., Of the TWEEN
ty-sixth volunteer infantry, with eigh-
teen men, held the principal buildings.
A strong wind was blowing at the
time. The Americans sustained no
casualties.
The first political party under the
American regime is in process of form
atior. Its principles have been en-
bodied in a platform which will short
ly be made public. It is expected the
principles of the platform give the
fullest recognition to American SOW
ereignty and also favor the greatest
degree Of native autonomy concerning
insular affairs.
Thirty rebels were captured in a
suburb of San Pedro Macati, four
miles from Manila by 25 men of the
Twentieth infantry and 20 members
of the native Manila police under Capt.
Gaines. assistant superintendent of
police. The force landed from small
boats and surrounded the suburbs.
Seventy prisoners were captured but
only 30 We're identified sas insurgents.

ACTIVITY IN PANAY.

Americans and FlliplnOs Have Had
Several Recent ENGAGEMENTS.
Manila, Dec. 1S.-Advices from lloilo.
Island of Panay, are that the American
troops have been moving northward
and westward for several days and
that detachments of the Sixth, Eigh-
tenth and Twenty-sixth regiments
have been active near their stations.
The ihsurgent losses during the last
ten days there have been 5 killed. Z
wounded and 40 taken prisoners. The
Americans have lost 2 killed and 8
wounded. Large numbers of the ma
tiyes. however, are swearing allegiance
to the United States. In several re-
cent attacks and expeditions in South
ern Luzon the insurgents have lost 8
killed, Z wounded and about 20 cap
tured. The Americans have lost l
killed and 2 wounded.

each other in Industrial contests filled
Steinway hall at last nights session of
the conference OF conciliatlon and ar
bitration which began here yesterday.
Both day and night sessions were taxi
en- up with papers read by representa-
tives Of capital and labor, looking to
the same end-a cure for strikes. from
the tone of the addresses it seemed
plainly evident that both sides were
vigorously opposed to compulsory arbi-
t%ration, and If a recommendation on
the subject of a national board re-
suits from the present gathering the
recommendation will in all probability
specify that all the boards work shall
be along the line Of voluntary arbi-
tration. Prominent among the speak
ers were Franklin Mcyeagh, Henry
w. Hoyt, president Of the National
Founders association; Carroll D..
Wright and Samuel Gompers.
