LONDON, March TO- 2:15 p. 'm.-Nei-
ther the advance by way Of Fourteen
Streams nor Colonel Plumer's move
ment has yet reauitsd in bringing news
Of liafekings relief. From Bloemfontein
and Natal there are apparently no SER
ious developments, and public interest
remains conferred In Colonel Baden-
PowelI's force undistracted by events
Of greater military importance. How
ever, It appears likely that the conyerg-
Ing Of the troops towards MafelSllg In
dicates much more serious purpose
chan merely It's relief. Judging from
Lord Methuen's presence at WaErea-
town and the capture Of the nearby
passage OF the vaal at Fourteen
Streams, keen observers believe Lord
Roberts meaitates an advance IN force
on Pretoria BY way Of Rustenburg.
This might start either from Fourteen
Streams or I6lerksdorp and would prob
ably coincide with an advance via
Bloemfonteln and Natal Thus Lord
Methuen may be given the chance to
redeem his reputation, as has been
done with General Gatacre.

Lincoln the DespOt.

The indianapolis Sentinel Of Aug. 10
contains these remarks about n man
whom many Democrats used to abuse
like "A pickpoCket when he was living
and whom the Democrats of today are
fond of extolline and quoting. in their
zeal occasionally forging quotations:
mo more Infamous Islander could be
conceived than the charge that Lincoln
was an imperialist Every word and
every act of his heroic life stamps the
charge With falsehood. lie would have
despised imperialism as un-Ameriean
and immoral. He would never have
governed n people against their con
sent. He would never have sneered
away the Declaration of Independence.
He would never have formed an al
lance with human slavery. He would
never have tolerated II contract labor
system. He would never have attempt
ed to bellttle the outrageous steals of
Cuba. He would never have exchanged
American blood for foreign gold Let
Imperialism invoke Lord North, Cecil
Rhodes and Castlereagh, but, in the
name of common deceney. spare the
good name of Abraham Lincoln"
In the Indianapolis Journal Of Aug
10 are some extracts from this same
Sentinel of 1861 We reprint three of
them:
Have not the people daily evidence
that Abraham Lincoln is assuming the
power the despotic power-to enable
him to pay his debts and replenish his
oyerdrawn Golfers, exhausted by ex-
travagance and ambitious strife for
powerY
"More than eighteen hundred years
ago Rome was governed by three men
at the end of that republic. one was
Cesar. They We're all of noble blood.
And we, too, have our triumyrate
Lincoln, Stanton. Halleck, but unfortu-
nately neither of them can boast II
very high descent. There succeeded
an emperor who could fiddle when
Rome was burning. We also have our
emperor Lincoln, who can tell stale
jokes while the land is running red
with the blood of brothers"
should Mr.. Lincoln be re elected the
revolution will be accomplished. This

president. We implore patriotic and
Intelligent men to pause and reflect and
give their verdict ON Tuesday next.
II the people will not save their price

Hunker Democrats accused Lincoln

rs they are yelling now They were as

cries of "deSpotism' and imperialism"

POLITICAL NOTES.

Ask John Chinaman if President Nc
kinley has any back bone.
II predictions were only electoral
s1tes Chairman Jones would be able to
s,es, several Presidents this year
Ne<. Mr Bryan, we are ashamed,
m,lGans II Us. that the Filipinos are
expecting All from the Democrats in
.tis election.
The Democratic nominee for Cover
nor Of Alabama Is a horrible Gold Bug
and an awful expansionist. Everything
goes in Alabama.
Ii you see it in one of Mr.. Hearst's
papers, printed in black faced type
three or four columns wide, you may
assume that it is not so.
The sugar trust made the Wilson
German tariff bill and Mr. Bryan voted
for it. Was that not placing the
money before the man. "
There is no question as to the adapt
ability of the Hon. Adlai T.. Stevenson.
They cannot make the Democratic
platforms too shaky for him.
Dick Croker is quick to attribute dis
loyalty to those members of Tammany
who favor the nomination of an honest
man for Governor of New York.
Mr.. Bryan's speech of acceptance
may furnish little encouragement to
Aguinaldo and his followers, but it
will not appeal to loyal Americans.
Red shirtism in North Carolina and
Goebeism in Kentucky are omitted
from all of Mr.. Bryan's speeches on
government without the consent OF
the governed.
1t used to be the robber tarin. with
Mr.. Bryan, and then it was the robber
gold barons. Now We suppose ii is a
conspirator of robber soldiers, like
Chaffee, McCalla and others.
General John NJ. Palmer has an
nouneed his intention of voting for
Mckinley and Roosevelt. The Demo
Gratis who favor an honest currency
will not require n halfway station this
year.
In order to find historic parallel to
the manner IN which the Democrats
treat the negroes in some parts of the
South, it will be necessary to search
among the records of the early Spanish
conquerors in America. Yet Bryan
would have the people believe that the
mantle of Lincoln has fallen npon his
shoulders.
