Snayat depots, scenes Of the widest en-.
thusiasm prevailed.
Liverpool, addressing a crowd Of
sG,000 people assembled around the
town hall, the lord mayor said:
II thank the Almighty God for The
glorious news. We have awaited it pa
tiently We are satisfied that under the
humane laws and government of this
country, the Beers, in q very short time
will be loyal citizens of the British en-
pire.
Next Move Undetermined.
What the next move will be, remains
as much a conundruIl as prior to the re-
ceipt of General Buller's dispatch.
Lord Dund donald is assumed to have
made wide turning movement east
ward, skirting Bulwana hill, and Cen
e1al Butler may reasonably be expected
to be in Ladysmith with the bulk Of his
forces by night. Whether like Roberts,
at Kimberley, he will be able to turn
the tables on the retreating Beers, re-
mains to be seen. But, opinion here in
5clines to the belief that no aggressive
movement can be imme ediately under
taken by General Butler and General
Whites forces, hence Lord Roberts is
likely to soon have to face the enemy
sstreng ngthened by large reinforcements
from all sides. i
While it is generally realized that
Lorn Roberts strategy is mainly re-
sponsible for the relief Of Ladysmith,
there is a feeling Of anxiety lest his
plans suffer from the hordes General
Butler might let-slip into the Free State.
Evidently Lord Roberts is awake to the
situation. It is reported in London, but
the news is not confirmed, that General
French has already reached Bloemfon-
tein, which is not improbable as the
Beers are scarcely expected to make a
stand there. The 81 significance Of Gen
eral Kitchener's presence at Arundel is
not yet explained. But wherever he
goes, mething is likely to happen, and
Developments may shortly show strate-

Where Did You Get Your News1

The Benten Newsboy says: Ex-State
Senator r. B. Oliver promises the
people of Cape Girardeau county
some spicy reading matter soon. He
proposes to personally institute pro-
ceedings against many of the most
prominent and active Republicans of
that county for bringing in and vot-
ing men, who never lived in Cape
county. from all along Houck's rail-
road. He claims that challenging,
protesting and reading the law to them
was only a severe waiste of energy,
and proposes to prosecute his rights
before the courts, where they will be
heard.
There is no truth in what the News
boy says. The Republican votes
polled in this county were all legal
and the men referred to are all resi-
dents of the county.

Secretary Gage and the commits
sioner OF internal -evenue have been
asked to furnish a schedule of the
articles upon which war taxes are
collected, with the amount of the re-
ceipls. Until these schedules are re-
ceived no actual estimate can be made
of the amount of war tax to be remov-
ed or the articles to be favored. There
will be no prolonged debate in Con-

IT MEANS A BOOM.
Out of the Old Rut into 2
Busting Active City.
The Coming Year viii Mark
the Turning Point for Us.

We anxiously look forward TO the
opening of the new century as it is
evident that 1901 will mark the turning
point for Cape Girardeau. We are
not prophets, butsour optics see in the
coming year future far brighter than
ever smiled upon us in all the years
gone by.
Patiently have we been trodtug
along in search of that goal year in
and year out, that which would lift
our city from the mire in which it has
been resting for ever so long. and
place Us upon firmer footing where we
will be given an opportunity to cope
with our sister cities of the west. That
time is coming ere many more months
roll by. 1t is not imaginary, not an
Illusion, not a prediction by false
prophet, but the truth as it bears
evidence on every hand.
The completion of the Commerce
road, which we will see at the opening
of the new year, is only fore-runner
of what is to follow. This road will
run inso the very heart of our city
and terminate on Independence street,
where will be ereoeds a modern depot

treasures that liebeneath mother earth
at this place are extensive, and our
