BACKS OUT.
Roberts Decides to Leave Beers
Alone Near BlOemfOntein.

London, April 4.-Gen. COlVille and
Gen. French have given up the move
ment against the Beers east of Bloem-
fontein, and have rejoined the main
army. 1t doubtless seemed to Lord Rob-
erts vain thing to send from ten 20
twelve thousand of his best troops into
the wilderness, with field transport in
the direction at a right angle with his
chosen line of advance. The Beers have
probably moved elsewhere and if to the
southwest Gen. Colville could as easily
strike them from Bloemfontein as by
following them up across the plains.
These differences still leave the situation
bewildering for the time being. The
enormously superior British forces ap-
pear inactive in every part of the war
field, waiting yet, probably, for the ac-
cumulation of material for a swift ad-
vance on the Transvaal frontier.
The London military commentators
and the public to some extent are irri-
tated and confused by the situation.

the Republican candidate for Cong
ress i'll this district, made AT the meet
ing on last Friday evening, was par
ticularly we'll received, and what seems
most to have met with the approval of
the people Is that he did not even
deny the senseless aud untruthfnl re-
ports Of some remarks made by him at

one who knows JUDGE Herr knows
that he is a nan full of sympathy for
every class Of humanity. That as a
Judge he has been fair, impartial and
has not III the slightest degree given
way any question of principle to
private interest. lie is of old Iluguenot
ancestry and his father the, Rev. Mar,

Minister, and To this fact the Judge
owes his large acquaintance in the
fonr counties comprising this district
He Is practical farmer as we'll as
Judge, and his only recreation il with
