Bryan's Speech of Acceptance
Golfers Weekly, Rep

There is no greater mistake than
the exhibition of unfairness toward
political opponent. The Republi-
can newspapers are Ill advised when
they depreciate the speech delivered
10y Mr.. Bryan at Indianapolis in
reply to the formal tender of the
Democratic nomination for the
Presidency. We state what we
believe to be the secret conviction of
all Republicans who read it, when
we say that not single politician in
their own party could have written
it. From, the viewpoint of argu-
ment it was cogent; from rhetorical
viewpoint it was ferveut, illuminative
and persuasive. PROFESSIONALLY, Mr..
Bryan is a great orator, probably the
greatest alive; that he has no peer in
the United States is certain. Voice.
presence, gesture, facial expression,
all the outward equipment of a
master of the spoken word is his;
and, even when read, this last speech
will be found to answer the defini-
ton of eloquence which is deduced
from the great models. 1t appeals
at once to the understanding and
touches the heart. 1t is, reasoning,
tiretipped with emotion. In any
event, this speech, considered as a
campaign document, is sure to have
tremendous circulation, and it pos
slbly might turn the scale were il
certain that the coming election
would pivot upon the issue of I'm
perialism.

BACHELOR DOCTOR SUED.
While Husband was Sick was said
TO be Driving Through Lancaster
with the Wife.

Henry M. Carter, in Baltimore,
on Saturday, entered suit against DR..
Alexander Hill for $25, 900, charg-
ing that physician and Democratic
politician with alternating the affec-
tons of Mrs. Garter. DR.. Hill, who
is handsome bachelor of 45 and
chief surgeon of the Baltimore city
lire department, is now in Virginia
on visit. The news Of the filling
of the suit against him caused great
surprise and no little gossip in city
hall and political circles.
MIR. Carter is retired builder and
his wife is very beautiful woman,
about 43 years of age. Carter says
that DIR. Hill was his family physi
clan. He was very excited when
talking about the case aud made
serious charges against the doctor.
The Carriers have several children.
The husband and wife still reside
at their handsome home on st. Paul
street. The angry husband accuses
the doctor CT hypnotizing his wife,
and further says that when he was
i'll several years ago and thought he
was going to die, he willed $4,000
to his wife. DIR. Hill attended him.
and when he was convalescent, Mr..
Carter says the doctor was driving
around Lancaster county, Va, with
his wife. Mrs. Carter declares she
is innocent Of the charges.-Alenan-

ACROSS THE SEAS.
PHILIPPINES.

A Virginia negro is in complete
charge of an important town in the
Philippines, occupying the position
corresponding to mayor of city in
this country. His name is w. A.
Hankins, formerly employed in the
office of the Secretary of the Com
monwealth of Virginia.
The Manila Times of June 10th
tells of the arrest of James III.
Groundall, in Manila, fer passing q
Confederate note on a native mer-
chant. The man appears to have
given $40 Confederate bill in paw
ment for some article purchased.
He received $l4 in change. 1t seems
1t has become rather usual thing
for Americans to work off Con-
federate money on the natives in the
Philippines and Porto Rico.
A letter dated Manila, 1898. nc
month given, signed by II. Sandicc
and addressed to Aguinaldo advises
the establishment of committees in
all the outskirts and suburbs and
''to revive secretly the Katlpunan
armed with knives. We should avoid
conflict until this is all organized"

Dependence Or independence.

Senior Cisueros, who was one of the
delegation of Cubans who waited on
President Mckinley last week to pro-
test against interference by this gov
eminent with the people of Cuba in
the formation of their constitution
and government, takes most pessi-
mistic view of the situation. In his
opinion the President IS "pIaying
politics, "Mr. Mckinley" said Senior
Oisneros, 'seems to have had the po-
litical possibilities of the situation in
mind when he called the constitu-
tional convention for day imme-
diately preceding the election in this
country. If the convention had been
called for date at least fifteen or
twenty days prior to the election aud
the Government of the United States
bad forced us to frame constitution
not satisfactory to ourselves it might
have had a serious effect on the Re-
publican vote" BuHo. SIN.

ENGLAND AND THE BoERs,

Because the Beers fred on a sup
ply train, the British had all the
houses for ten miles around burned
to the ground.
Buffers advance has occupied
Machadodorp. The enemy made a
very poor stand and retired north
ward, followed by Dundonald's
mounted troops.
Lord Roberts reports that Bnller's
troops have captured Bergendal, a
strong Boer position. The struggle
for the possession of the place cost
the British forces about GO men.
President Kruger has issued a
proclamation counter to the last
proclamation Issued by Lord Rob-
erts, The Transvaal president says:
sit will help you nothing to lay
down your arms or to leave the COM
mandos. Every step homeward
means step nearer st. Helena"
The British have captured Gen.
Olivier, one of the wariest and
bravest of the Beers. 1t was Olivier
who cornered Lord General Gatacre.
captured many prisoners and gave
him such drubbing. Olivier was
daring to recklessness and has had
many narrow escapes from capture.
Lieutenant Cordua, who was
charged with leading the plot to kid
nap Roberts, was executed. Fifteen
persons were implicated in the con
spiracy. They planned to set fire tc
houses in the suburbs of Pretoria and
while the soldiers were engaged there
to forcibly enter the houses occupied
by the British officers, kill all except
Lord Roberts and make him prisoner
Lord Roberts reports that the enc.
my in considerable force opposed Bul.
ler's advance and tried to trap the
cavalry. The Beers used 15-poundel
pompons, which the British finally
silenced. The Boer trap failed but
two companies of the Liverpool regi.
ments strayed into the lines, losing
ten men killed, forty-6ve wounded
and thirty captured.

The Shanghai news factory having
become discredited, the enterprising
fakir has turned his attention to that
long suffering potentate, the Amer of
Afghanistan. Last spring the Amer
was presented to the public as in
the act of rising against England.
Now he IL introduced as OH the point
of declaring holy war against

he is placidly smoking his hubble

of his harem and wondering why men

THE CRISIS IN CHINA.

A rumor is to the effect that the
allies have lost bloody battle at Pc
kin.
1t is rumored on good authority
Russia, Germany and Japan have
declared war on China and invited
England and the United States to
retire.
The execution of Cheng. Yien
Huan, the Cantonese who was the
special Ambassador OF China to
Queen NictorIa's JUBILEE. is said to
have created widespread terror.
The allies have driven the Boxers
out of the Imperial palace in Pekin.
Troops were marched through the
palace doors, the first vaudal foot
that ever trod the sacred Manchu
castle.
The War Department is arranging
to ship several million feet of lumber
from Seattle, Wash, to Taku, China,
where it is to be utilized in the con.
struction of winter barracks for
American soldiers.
The Japanese cavalry, it is report
ed, has left Pekin in pursuit of the
Dowager Empress and her court,
who, with her treasury train, pro-
tected by 10000 troops, has arrived
at WI Tai San, in Shan 81 province.
Advices from Yang Tsun state
that the Americans losses were
heaviest in that fight, the Fourteenth
Infantry having killed and 62
wounded. During the night the
British and Russian guns shelled the
American troops in mistake, wound
ing ten men.
Ii Hung Chang a Captive.
The French commander in Chi
nese waters, has cabled to his Navy
Department that council of the adj
mirals have decided to hold Lii Hung
Chang on board ship until the
opening of negotiations between the
Powers and China.

The Richmond NecS recently had a
good article on the convention which
reuominated Congressman Lamb at
Richmond. Ii recited how a little poll
tical fight between the Ellysou and
Montague factions was nipped in
the bud. 1t also stated that
rumorS were afloat as to what
transplred in the meeting of the Com
mlttee on Resolutions one. Section
Of the resolutions US reported was the
subject of considerable discussion.
The resolution was adopted, however.
and the dissenters did not present a
minority report. This resolution was
the one endorsing Governor Tvier.
Objection seemed to be on account
of the Governors action in recalling
the troops from Emporia before the
Iynching there last spring.
COLoRED STATE CONFERENCE.
The Negro Conference which met
10 Charlottesville, Va, last week
adopted what they call ga prayer to
the intelligent white people of Vir.
ginia" not 10 disfrsnchise the colored
people of the State, and asked if a
measure of disfranchlSement is to
be passed, that it apply to both races
alike. The appeal, which is des-
crIbed as non-partisan, goes farther,
aid asks the white races aid in the
matter of education, the uplifting of
the colored race morally and its
advancement generally. The meet
lngs were secret, and all attempts TO
get at what was said behind the
closed doors have been fruitless. The
address is at present withheld from
the public for correction and
approval. L. Q. Walker, of Glou-
cester, was chosen temporary chair
man and g. G. Stewart, of Stewart.
of Bristol, permanent chairman of
| the Conference.
TELLING POINTS DELIVERED By
BRYAN IN TOPEKA SPEECH.
The fact that the Trusts support
the Republican party ought to be
sufficient proof that they expect pro-
lection from it.
The farmer knows that the dis
oovery of gold, famine abroad and
war on three continents have not
been able to raise the price Of farm
products as rapidly as Trusts and
com blnations have raised the price
of the things he buys.
The army worm, which OCCASION
ally destroys a field of wheat, is not
nearly so dangerous an enemy to the
farmer as large standing army.
The Republican party denies the
necessity for more real money while it
permits national banks to expand the
volume of paper it promises to pay.
To-day the Trust cloud well nigh
overspreads the industrial sky. The
farmer does not participate in the
benefits of Trusts, but he sorely feels
the burden of them all.
The farmer, powerless to protect
himself when he sells, is plundered
when he purchases.

ABOUT eighteen months ago we
started In to assimilate the heather
Filipino. We began with the small
nestegg of $40, 900, 900, contributed
to the Golfers of Spain. The next
deposit, and to date, is $3.50, 900, 900
in round figures, pumped as cold
lead into the Tagal, or squandered
by pampered officials, to say nothing
of the little tribute of the blood of
twenty-five hundred American lives.
Ten million of dollars and over one
hundred American lives per month
to persuade the massimilated Filipino
of the blessings of Christianity and
civilization is not much, when we
consider that it took million dol
lars day to give few lessons in
American gunnery to the Spaniards
and the world at large.

FAVORITISM RAMPANT.

AT the time of General Chaffee's
appointment to the Chinese field we
took occasion to allude to the evident
display of favoritism on the part of
the Administration in the rapid
promotion of army officers. In many
instances manifest injustice is done
brother officers, while at the same time
the morale of the troops and the
honor of the nation may fall into
jeopardy through tie promotion of
incompetent officers. 1t does not nec-
essarily follow that this latter will
be so In the case of Gen. Chaffee.
Tor as yet he has displayed to the
public no lack of ability, but the
hrst reason-injustice to others
seems to be very marked, and contin-
uing, as witness the following late
dispatch from Washington to the
Baltimore american:
General Chaffee's reward for his
brilliant service in China will be a
orlgadier generalship in the regular
army. General Wheeler will retire.
under the age limit, on September
III, and General Chaffee will be
appointed to the vacancy thus Gre
ated. Gen. Chaffee's rank in the army
is only that of a colonel, his present
rank being major general of volun-
teers. In the regular army, Colonel
Daggett commanding the Fourteenth
Infantry, which is part of Chaffee's
force, is his senior"

son-Schley travesty is to be repeated
