THE NEWS.
To Keep Up With 1t Topekans
Must Read the State
Journal.

The State Journal is not a political
organ, but day after day, and week after
week it demonstrates to its readers,
allied with all parties. that those who
would keep up with the political, as
well as the local and general news of the
day, whether Republican, Democrat or
Populist, must read this paper. A few
weeks ago the State Journal was the
first Topeka paper to print Bryan's noti-
hcation speech at Indianapolis and again
first in printing his speech at Topeka
On Saturday the State Journal printed
the speech of Senator Foraker at
Youngstown, Ohio, on that day opening
the great campaign in that state. The
address is regarded by Republicans gem
orally as one of the key notes of the
campaign, and presents the issues from
Republican standpoint in a mastery
manner.
No other newspaper in Topeka has yet
given it's readers the Foraker speech.
Today the State Journal presents,
ahead of all other Topeka papers, Presi-
dent McKinley's letter of acceptance,
political document which for weeks has
been anticipated with the liveliest in
terest, not only by Republicans, but by
people of all parties.
The State Journal is not a partisan
organ, but newspaper, and yet par
tisans of all parties must look to it's
columns for the earliest news covering
the respective campaigns.

BIRD INTELLIGENCE.

EFrom the Boston Christian Register1
During a high wind one day this sum-
mer a young oriole was thrown from
its nest to the ground. Tt was picked
up by kind hands, and kept in the
house till the storm was over, and then
placed on the roof of the piazza. A
watch was kept behind the closed blinds
on the part of the parent birds They,
in the meantime, had seen the little
one borne away, and had followed it to
the house, and, as it was kept near the
open window, its cries had apprised
them of its whereabouts. They soon
came to it on the roof and lowered over
it, doing much talking and consulting
together Finally, they alighted near
the little one, and the famale slipped
her wing under it and seemed to urge
some course of acting upon the male,
who fidgeted about, coming to the little
one, spreading his wings over it. then

TO LEAVE PEKIN.
American Forces Soon to With
draw to Shanghai.

New York. Sept. 10.-A special to the
Tribune from Washington, says:
Unless Minister Conger, in reply to
questions sent by cable to him nearly
week ago by direction of the president,
gives better reasons than are now con-
ceived here for his continuance at Pekin,
he will be instructed to remove the
American legation without delay to
Shanghai. Gen. Chaffee's troops will es-
cort the minister and legation to Talu.
and Admiral Remey will take them on
the Brooklyn to the Chinese metropolis,
making that port the meeting place for
his fleet The main American military
force will probably not remain on Chi
nese territory after October 1, and its
withdrawal from Pekin may be a matter
of less than ten days.
General Chaffee has already Informed
the war department of his readiness to
leave Pekin at a days notice, while he is
fully prepared, if necessary, to remain
all winter. The last Investigations on
the subject were sent to him just two
weeks ago, when three days before the
presentation of the Russian note, he was
Informed that transportation arrange
mentS would be made to bring away his
troops, their mission having been ac-
complished, and he was to make such
dispositions as would facilitate prompt
withdrawal and to inform the depart
ment as to the length of time he should
require between the receipt of orders and
embarking at Taku. Although not yet
officially admitted, sufficient marine
transportation for the entire force is now
under orders to assemble at Taku by
September 20, and at least two steamers
will be at the mouth of the Pei-Ho to
receive the first troops on next Satur-
day.
It is not expected by the authorities
that Minister Conger will present any
reasons to affect the disposition of this
government to have him leave Pekin
temporarily and to remove the troops
from Chinese soil. No conceivable adj
vantage occurs to the presidents advis-
ers of maintaining the legation in a city
where there are no imperial officials with
whom negotiations can be conducted and
where it is hardly likely there will be
any Improvement in this respect for
many months, while at Shanghai there
is constant intercourse with the rulers
of four ifths of the empire, and perfect
security of person and property.
As to the further maintenance of Gen.
Chaffee's forces in Pei Chi L. the auth
critics here are now satisfied that moth
ing whatever is to be gained and much,
perhaps, to be riSked or lost.
1t is fully agreed that the purposes for
which the troops were landed have been
full accomplished. These were stated in
the Hay circular to the powers

LEONARD'S VISITORS.
Young Man Charged With Forgery
Has Many Friends.

Sunday and today number of people
called at the city prison to see Marion
Leonard, who is under arrest for forg-
ing. He has had more visitors and more
inquiries have been made concerning
him than any prisoner who has been in
the jail for a long time. The people who
called are of the better class and all ex-
pressed establishment at the young
mans plight. He has born a good repu-
tation and has been known by them for
years and not one word has ever been
heard against his character. His mother
Mrs. o. d. Bowles. will arrive this ev-
fort will be made by his friends to help
him.
1t appears that recently he has been
going out in society and in order to get
money to hire buggies, buy clothing and
go to shows and parties, he forged the
checks and went heavily in debt

OUR BEST PURCHASER.
Amount of Our Products Bought by
England and Her Colonies.
From the Washington Star,

From the Washington Star,
England buys 60 per cent. of all the
products which the American farmer
sends abroad, says Consular Agent r.
l.. Harris, at Eibanstock, in "A recent
report to the state department treat
ing upon the extent of United States
trade with Great Britain. England, he
says, is our best customer for over
production in food stufis, and the
British colonies present the greatest
field for our manufactured products.
Consular Agent Harris provides ta-
BILE for the fiscal year, 1S9S-99, showing
that England bought, in round num-
bers, s73,00O,OO0 worth Of our principal
products, or 20 per cent. more than all
the rest Of Europe combined.
This report" says Consular Agent
Harris, 'is based upon the statistics
published by the Deutscha Kolonial-
zeitung, Bradstrects annual report
and on a statistical abstract for the
several colonies and other British pos
sessions issued in London. They are
figures which every farmer, manufaC-
turer and laborer in the United States
should know. They are especially in
teresting when we consider that the
English colonies are not included. The
farmers of our great central states
will see at a glance what the English
market means to corn, wheat, -four,
beef and pork. England buys 60 per
