It is gratifying to Learn shat Col =
of Dreyfus and, in fsct, caused his
recall from Devils Island, will be re-
instated in the Frencn Army. The
clique of generals who We're perse-
cutting Dreyfus resented ColonelPic- E
quarts efforts to establish his inno-
cence and removed him from the
army. Colonel Picquart was pun
ished along with others for his un-
selfish devotion to the cause of JUS
tice. His restoration 10 he army is
an omen. it may be hoped, of a JUS
ter feeling toward Dreyfus, who
still bears the stigma o. the court
martial's verdict of guilty.
There is a disposition manifest,
says the Chicago Tribune, to make
a needless fu over tbe story told
by Lieutenant Hobson TO the effect
that Admiral Dewey's fleet did not
sink three of the Spanish vessels in
the memorable engagement off Ma
Mia, but that they were sunk by the
Spaniards themselves. It is evident
that Hobson, in what he said, had
no intention of casting a slar at
Admiral Dewey, He simply stated
the condition of three of the vessels
after they were raised. their upper
works being ruined by Dewey's
shells, the Spaniards sunk them be-
cause they were no longer tenable.
The retail price of coal in Boston
says the Boston Post, was raised by

region. It has raised another peg
this week because the strike follow
ed as anticipated. When the first
increase was made, it was announced
that there was enough coal in the
hands of the Boston dealers to sup
ply the regular demand for so days.
During the week coal has been ar
irving in large quantities, and now
there is larger stock than ever.
Within two days past more than
$4,000 tons have been brought into
this port. Under these conditions,

HAS A SIXTY DOLLAR BILL
Plt ce of Money That The Treas.

Spokane has the only sixty
dollar paper bill in United States
currency known to be in exist
ence.
It was issued at the first ses-
sion of the Continental Congress
in IT'S, and carries with it all the
crudity of that age. It is a pc
culiar-looking document, being a
piece of greenish paper of much
the same material as the present
paper money, except that it is
heavier. In shape it is almost
square, with dimensions of about
four by three and a half inches
wide.
On one side of the bill is writ-
ten the receipt, which is as fol-
lows:
"This bill entities the bearer
to receive 60 SIP ,nish milled dol
lars for value received In gold or
silver, according to a resolution
passed by Congress at Philadels
phia September 26 177s."
On the back of the bills drawn
bow with a set arrow. Along
the margin the value of the bill is
again printed, and at one side the
words "Printed, Hall & Sellers,
177s." At the bottom of the
face is the signature of someone in
authority. The letters have so
faded out that it is aim ost imposs
sible to follow the characters.

trace the signature of George

others could not imagine what au-
thority be had to distribute m oney

BRYAN STARTS FOR CHICAGO
His Long Campaign Trip Will
Begin Next Wednesday.

Lincoln. Neh., Seps..24 -Hon.
William j. Bryan left last even
ing for Chicago.
He arrived there to-day and
will confer with Senator Jones
and other members of the Ma
tlonal COMMITTEES. To the even
ing he will start back home, ar
swing here Tuesday morning,
to remain until Wednesday, when
he goes by special train TO Ne
braska City. Thence he will go
to Sioux City, where the special
train that is to carry him during
the rest of the campaign will be
ready.
The decision to go to Chicago
was the result of telegraphic cors
respondence between Senator
Jones and M. Bryan. Since the
formers Eastern trip it has be-
come advisable to alter to some
extent the candidates original
itinerary so as to enable him to
devote as much of his time as
possible to the Eastern States,
and particularly New York. With
view to arranging these details
and reviewing the entire situa-
tion Mr.. Bryan goes to Chicago.
It is probable that the western
part of the trip will be shorten
ed somewhat and that the dates
in Illinois, where Mr.. Bryan
hoped to be able to visit his ole
home, will be cut out altogether.

spending their money. The col
umns of our best morning dailies
in the cotton belt, as we'll as
some at the cotton market CEN
tres, have been at their service
for years, and such service costs
money. They have constantly
told US that to print our defenses
of the standard bale, they must,
in accordance with their under
standing with the round people,
charge us as they charge them.
To give an idea of these charges
I will mention that 1925 was
named as the price for the in
sertion of one Of our standard
bale arguments in the weekly
edition of one Of our principal
papers.
''In Texas last spring an en-
terprising reporter, at much
trouble to all concerned, pro
cured and sent TO his employers
a copy of an interesting paper
read at a meeting of compress
men. His managing editor de-
clined it as news, though saying
in his letter now before me, that
it was 'one of the best things
fho yooo~ioor fnffot1
Company that I have ever seen
.,....I regret, very much in
deed, that We will have to class
the matter as advertising.' The
reason given is that his paper
'for the last year or so has been
charging regular advertising
rates for all articles in favor of
the round bale PACKAGE When
we remember the very great
number and variety of these
round bale advertisements, for
years past, filing the columns of
our principal papers, from New
York to Galveston, some of them
in alluring headlines, rivaling
'Pinkham's Pills. or Warmers
Safe Cure, We get an idea of the
immense sum thus expended,
We see thus why they have had
to issue preferred stock. We
see, also, why they would per-
suade investors that the square
bale is about to be suppressed
and so leave the field to them,
and thus make their stock a bon
anZa.
$50 it is that our round bale
friends are in a sad dilemma.U q
less they show sure promise OF
a monopoly investors will moi
put up the money TO push it. II
planters and spinners see the
monopoly they are bound to
damn it. Thus they are betwix
toe devil and the deep blue sea
where we may leave them.
