THE MOUNTAIN GOES TO MAHOMET.
The Republican party after much erratic
wandering has seen the error Of it's ways,
and has returned penitent and humble
and clasped the knees Of that distinguish
ed Minneapolis gentleman, Dr. A. A.
Ames; and the doctor, with that mag
nanimity which Is his prevailing char
acteristic, declares that If the Republican
party will ''come with him. and help him
to carry out his grand plans for the
elevation Of the nation and the human
race generally he will take 1t to his bosom
again and make a man of it. But 1t must,
in the future, bear its share Of the burden.
DR.. Ames stated on Monday night that
he had always been Republican and had
never changed his principles. The Re
publican party departed from its prin-
ment, and since that Hateful time the
genial doctor has been enjoying all the
principles of the Republican party in
solitary state. During the progress Of this
Barmecide feast the doctor has amused
himself by playing at being Democrat.
He was the Democratic candidate for gov
ernor and, perhaps because he was the
sole trustee for the principles Of the Re-
publican party, he came within $500 votes
Of defeating A. R. McGill, the Repubi-
can candidate The misguided Democrats
of Minneapolis, laboring apparently under
the delusion that DIR. Ames was Demo
crat, elected him mayor of their city, and
in justice to the doctor 1t must be ad-
mitted he gave them that form Of NUM-
cipal administration which is sometimes
described as "wide OPEN"
Dr. Ames only failed by small margin
to secure another gubernatorial nomina-
ton from the Democrats in 1888, so that
even at that time it could not have been
generally known that he was really the
only Republican in the United States, or,
at any rate, in Minnesota.
Then in 1896, the Republican party, prob
ably having shown some slight signs of
LII. Allies WAS Olly I'LL III
dependent candidate for governor. Now,
according to the DOCTOR the Republican
party, like the prodigal of scripture, has
had its fill Of husks. and comes back,
ragged, dusty and generally broken down
and broken up, to once more board with
the "old man." strsas steset,sa
Well, take 1t in, DOCTOR Your great
charitable heart is big enough to forgive
even such scalawag prodigal as the
Republican party. 1t is no use giving you
any advice based on worldly wisdom. For
that brilliant intellect which rejoices ever
in taking the longest way round and doing
the right thing at the wrong time, the
only fitting remark is the epigram APP
piled to an English monarch:
"Here lies our sovereign lord, the king,
Whose word no man relies on,
Who never said a foolish thing,
And never did a wise one"

flower of her chivalry, the pride Of her
breeding, but few remained to tell the
tale-a SADIE tale, truly, but one unta1nted
with dishonor or smirched with disgrace,
for up these hills under similar circum-
stances even brigade of devils could
scarcely have hoped to pass. All that
mortal men could do the Scots did-they
tried, they failed. they fell and there is
nothing left but to mourn for them and
avenge them. All day our fallen men
lay close to the Boer lines, under a blaz-
ing sun, over their heads the shots of
friends and foes passed without ceasing.
All day long the battle ragged. Scarcely
could we see the foe. All day the heights
spoke with tongues of flames whenever
our troops drew near. Once our guards
made a brilliant dash at the trenches, and
like a torrent their resistless valor bore
all before them, and for few brief mo-
ments they got within hitting distance Of
the foe. Well did they avenge the slaugh-
ter Of the Scots. The bayonets. like
tongues of flames, passed above or below
the rifles guard. and swept through
brisket and breast bone. Out Of their
trenchesethe guardsmen tossed the Beers
as men in English harvest fields toss the
hay when the reapers' scythes have
whitened the cornfields, and the human
streams were plentiful where the guards
men stood. Then they fell back, for the
fire from the hills above them fell thick
as the spume of the surf on the Aus
tralian rock-ribbed coast. But the guards
had proved to the Beers that man to man
the Briton was his master.
'In vain all that day Methuen tried
by every rule he knew to draw the enemy;
vainly the lancers rode recklessly to in
duce those human rock limpets to come
out and cut them off. Cronje knew the
mettle of our men, and an ironic laugh
played around his iron mouth, and still
he stayed within his native Businesses;
but death sat ever at his elbow, for our
gunners dropped the lyddite shells and
the bowling shrapnel all along his lines,
until the trenches ran blood, and many
of his guns were silenced In the valley
behind his outer line his dead lay piled
in hundreds. and the slope and hill was
a charnel house where the wounded
writhed amidst the masses of the dead,
a CHASTITY tribute to British gunnery.
When, at 1:30 p. m. of Tuesday, we drew
off to Modder river to rest, we left nearly
1000 dead and wounded Of grim old
Cronjes men as token that the lion of
England had barred his teeth in earnest"

HURRY UP, OR YOU'LL GET CAUGHT.

eff the city council intends or wants to
put in police alarm system why does
it not say so and do it? Every days
delay warns the scandal and intensif1es
public suspicion that there is deal on
and public suspicion is not thing to be
trif1ed with at such time as this. There
is no disposition, to force the hand of
the council, but the tongue of rumor has
been busy, and the time has about como
when, whatever the council does, there
will be wagging of heads and suggestive
Winks and mods among the sophisticated.
At least If there is cause for further
delay the public should be made ac-
quainted with it, in order that it may
have its misgivings and doubts made
easy
The foregoing is taken from the editor
ial columns of the Dispatch of Tuesday
last On the evening of that same day
the board of aldermen, as was doubtless
in the consideration of the various bids
for providing an electrical alarm system
for the police department..
What is the meaning Of that extract?
What was the apparent purpose in pub
fishing it? It's meaning, taken in con-
nection with the open and notorious ad
the Auto-Electric system in the news
columns of the same paper, might with
more clearness be expressed this wise:
Hurry up and accept the bid of the con-
so doing has occasioned public scandal.
The longer you delay the greater
will be the scandal. We should
have no scandal at such a time
as this, with the city election only
few months away. If you act prompt
ly the thing will be forgotten. If you
string 1t along much further and then
give our concern the contract, the affair
will be fresh in the public mind. and will
surely be dragged into the city cam
paign."
There is not word in the extract, 1t
will be observed, which shows that the
public interest enters for a second into
the mind of the writer. It Is an express
sion of the prevailing standard of
public morality among our local reform
ers-hurry UP and do at once what you
have set yourselves to do, or there will

In mercantile life success depends upon
publicity. The merchant who permits his
business to remain untrumpeted can
never obtain prominence; but he who
insists upon making himself known to
the public through the medium Of news
paper advertisements will rise from OBJ
security and troubled fortune to fame and
aff1uence. In like manner. the successful
merchant who has always advertised can
sustain and still farther develop his trade
The advertisement does for business what
