opening a debate on this subject, as in
foreign policy especially, such discussions
were useless and often dangerous.
At M. Cocherys request, M. Denys
Cochin withdrew his Interpolation and
proposed the following motion:
THE Chamber of Deputies, on the oc-
casion of the arrival of the President of
the Transvaal in France, is happy to adj
dress to him sincere expression of it's
respectful sympathy.
M. Cookery then announced that he ha"
received another motion from NJ -Four
Mere, Socialist, representing one OF the
Aisne divisions, in the following terms:

pressing sympathy for the English De-
mocracy--''
Here the reading of the motion was
interrupted by loud protests but M. Coch-
cry concluded:
s. sends it's greeting to President
Kruger"
Continuing, NJ Cookery begged the
Chamber to refrain from demonstration
which. he said could be badly interpreted
He also asked that a vote be taken with
out any discussion.
The motion of NJ Denys Cochin was
then adopted unanimously and $50 voters
cheered when the result was announced.

democracies of all countries were ANNA

The Alamance Strike.

Gold. Olds in Wilmington Messenger
In the course of talk with an Ala
nance county cotton mill owner the fol-
lowing information was secured regarding
the situation there. The strike is about
over and in the sixteen mills which it af-
ected about three fourths of the machin
cry is now in operation New operatives
are daily coming in from the country. The
food issued to the strikers was paid for
entirely with money given by textile
unions in other counties in the State.
None of these gave over $500. Not much
food was issued. Many of the strikers
perhaps most of them, have vacated the
mill companies tenements. In case of
sickness there was no requirement to va
cate Thomas, the Massachusetts labor
agitator, who really caused the chief
trouble, fed at night, and left local
man to pay his half. He had put up the
money for him 1t is said that the feeling
which Thomas aroused against the mill
men is dying out, save among some ire
concilables, who will emigrate to other
States. AS yet not many have gone, but
they say they are going to West Point,
Ga. The majority of those who have not
returned to work and abandoned the tex
tile unions will go away. The strike
came at good time for the mills. One
of these had it run on full time would
now have 1000 bales of goods on hand
unsold.

ROOTS PLEA FOR A GREAT ARMY.
His Letter Accompanying Draft of War De.
uartment Bill Made Public.
AN the Associated Press ]

Washington Nov 29.-The House Com
mtttee on Military Affairs tonight made
nuhlic a letter received from Secretary
Root under date Of the 28th instant
transmitting draft of bill prepared by
tho War Department for the re-organiza-
ton of the army.
The letter says that the army as at
present organized under the present law
will cease on July list, 1901. Without
further legislation he says the volunteers
now in service must be discharged July
Isl. 1901 and the regular army reduced
from $4,000 to 30 OPS men. Continuing
the letter says
without leaving much, if any margin
for sickness, such as the compaigns of
the last two years warn us must be
cou nted as an important factor in any
occuuation by the army. peaceful or war
like of many of the islands which con-
of this plan the absolute fixed strength
thus fixed must prove inadequate, leav-
ing out of consideration the service in
the United States, in Porto Rico, and
for the time being, in the island of Cuba.
.In the preparation of the present bill
the minimum number of men is fixed for
each organization with proviso that the
President may. in his discretion, increase
the number of enlisted men in any troop,
battery or company, provided that the
total number of enlisted men authorized
for the army by Congress shall not at
any time be exceeded. BY the adoption
of this plan tn eabsolute fixed strength
of the regular army can be known at
glance and any increase of numbers
above the minimum will be limited by
such authority as may be conveyed from
time to time by the Congress. The peace
strength of each troop, battery and COM
pany is fixed in this bill as now authoriz-
cd by existing law. The number of reg
iments has been increased by five of cav
airy. five of infantry.
ITO replace the volunteers and regulars
who will be discharged prior to July LIST
and give an army of sufficient size to
meet the exigencies confronting it, or
such as may hereafter occur, provision
has been made so that the President may
increase the number of enlisted men
without the creation of new organiza-
tions.'
The bill provides for a maximum army
of 90 76e men and minimum force of
1924 men.

ENGLAND STARTLED AND ANGRY.
Effect Of Dewetsdorp Disaster and French Vote
ofsympathy For Kruger.
(By the Associated Press.)


London, Nov (Friday)-The dis
alarm through Great Britain. The cen
sorship continues so strict that there is
no hope of arriving at a clear conception
of the actual position of affairs in South
Africa For instance independent ac-
counts of the subsequent proceedings and
the recapture of Dewetsdorp give ample
details, not emitting to announce the cap
ture of two Boer wagons and a quantity
of loot; but there is not the slightest
mention of the surrender of 400 British
troops and two guns which were not even
disabled, inasmuch as the Beers were
able to use them against the British re-
lief forces.
The ubiquitous Dewet" seems again
to have gotten away and so far, there is
no news that the captured British have
been liberated.
Taking into consideration the enigma
ical military situation north of the Or
ange River the smouldering rebellion
in Cape Colony, the rumors that France
has promised Kruger to press arbitration
on England if he is able to obtain the
support of Germany and that Lord Kitch
ener after all is not to be given the chief
command in South Africa, the British
Government will meet the new Parlia
ment next week at an exceedingly mop
perfume moment
No attempt is made to conceal the ex
IRENE irritation felt at the adoption of
vote of sympathy with Mr.. Kruger by the
French Chamber of Deputies. The morn
ing papers are unanimous in declaring
that no Intervention of any kind will be
allowed to change the British policy.

serve the peace if it takes every soldier
in the State to do it.

poisoned words where can you find
malice?
mot only has John c. Kilgo made
charges that he knows are false, but they
are charges that he hasn't had the face
to get UP here and swear to, nor get
anyone else to swear to. The fact that
Kilgo didn't go on the stand himself or
put anyone up to prove these charges,
shows beyond all doubt hat he knows
they can't be sustained. He knows now
his charges are false, and he knew it, or
could have known it, when he made them
in making them he was prompted by
malice, and by malice only"
THE QUESTION OF DAMAGES.
Touching the question of damages,
Judge Graham said
mot only were these things said about
Mr.. Gattis, but they have never neglected
an opportunity since to injure him. His
business is ruined by that speech and he
is a bankrupt He gave you the names
Of those who quit trading with him. Did
he tell the truth? If not they could east
ly have proved it, for many of those
whose names he called as having quit
him were in this court room.
They've ruined him and the law says
they are responsible in damages.
Judge Graham paid a fine tribute to
Mr.. Gattis and his character as minister
and his service to his church.
He stands here tonight as a man of
integrity and of unimpeachable character
despite John Kilgo's effort to blacken and
damn it. Every witness put on the stand
denied that they had ever heard any
thing against him till these charges
were published by John c. Kilgo & Co.
Judge Graham read a number of deci
sions and other authorities in regard to
damages when they may be recovered
and in what amount.
What must ehave been the feelings of
this man when he found himself de-
nounced as a liar. a slanderer and a
backbiter-and the denunciation published
to the world-this man who for nearly
forty years has gone in and out before
the people as a minister of the gospel
What must have been the agony as he
contemplated the effect of these publish
ed charges upon his children and the
standing of his family in the community?
The Methodist preacher usually has only
his character. To him it is everything.
That gone, all is gone. What would you,
yourselves thus published? That is the test
Would not death itself be preferable?
No wonder he found no rest for two
months. No wonder sleep refused to
come to his eyes. No wonder his health
was broken. Yes, we ask for 100000
but it ought to be ten times that amount"
This part of Judge Graham's speech
was eloquent and very powerful.
"The law books say that if a man has
slandered another and comes into court
and apologies for it, even then damages
may be recovered. But what do we find?
They come here and reiterate the charge
that Thomas ]. Gattis is, a liar, sland-
erer and a maligner.
c'Could there be any greater aggrava-
ton of slander?"
Judge Graham's speech was an exceed
ingly able one-clear, logical and
learned. FRED L. MERRITT
