its fate. while Lord Roberts reverts TO
the original plan of an advance over
the Orange river upon Bloemfonteill.
To Ladysmith the disappointment
must be very bitter. 4 dispatch from
the Boer laager near the town. dated
Jan. "A, describes the garrison as very
evidently preparing ii desperate coup
in order to effect a junction With Cen
cral Bullers advancing army
1t may be regarded as n certainty
that, IN the confident hope of early re-
lief, Sir George White has lately been
Issuing extra rations. and this fact has
given rise To AN exaggerated idea as 70
the length of time the provisions would
last.
Even should it be decided to send
Genera! Fuller re-enforccments and to
attempt to reach Ladysmith by q
movement thru0the still more difficult
country east OF Colenso. 1t is extremely
doubtful whether the garrison could
hold out long enough, as such move
ment would occupy at least a month.
The Times says. The most carefully
planned and executed movement of the
whole campaign has entirely faliea
and ii can hardly be necessary TO dwell
upon the extreme probability that We
shall learn, a little sooner or little
later, of a catastrophe almost wltnou'

London, Jan. 29.-The war Office sun
day at noon gave out the following dis
patch from Butler, dated Spearman $
Camp, Jan. %:
On January 90 Warren drove back
the enemy and obtained possession
of the southern crests of a high ia
Bile land extending from the line OF
Acton Homes and Honger's Poort
to the western Ladvsmith hills.
From then to January % he re-
manned in close contact With the
enemy.
The enemy held a strong position
on range of small kopjes stretch
Ing from northwest to southeast
across the plateau from Acton
Homes, thru Spionkop, to the left
bank of the Tugela.
The actual position held was per-
fectly ,enable, but did not lend
itself 10 an advance. as the south

lery position and water supply was

The Republican county convention
is in session today in Rawlins, making
up Il first class ticket for the people to
endorse at the election in November.
We hope there will be 10 question about
the selection Of the very best material
In the county. Simply because we are
morally certain Of winning the day is no
excuse for putting in a lot of office seek
ers and ambitious politicians. The day
for such work-never came, but is past If
it ever were here. Certainly The Sun
will support none but the very best men

Wallace Bond, who has formed a
partnership with Harry O'Hair is now
at their ranch on the Platte, receiving
5000 ewes and some thoroughbred
bucks, which were purchased two
months ago of the Platte Valley Sheep
company. They have a splendid ranch
and n of the best stock farms in the
state. Mr.. O'Hair has just returned
from South Omaha, where he sold a
train load of cattle. He still retains
quite a large herd of breeding cattle
and young stock, and does not intend
to give up this branch of the business
