Better Than Victory.

In concluding it's article on the
Glenwood- Morris debate, the Lake
side Press, of Glenwood, pays the
following tribute to their treatment
here:-
'Too much cannot be said of the
courtesy and kindnes: of the Morris
people from Supt. Ross to the small
est urchin on the street. The de-
baters from Glenwood were applaud
ed just as heartily and generously as
the Morris speakers, and everything
possible was done to make the visitors
feel that they were among friends" :"
Work as much as each side did, it
were possible for only one of them to
win, but the prize which we have in
the respect of our opponents is after
all, the result which will be of most
lasting benefit to all the young people
engaged.

"ShantytOWn."

At the opera house on Wednesday,
April 25th, "Shantytown" will be
presented. Following is a press
notice in which the same is highly
spoken off,
The Alhambra was packed yester-
day evening to witness the produc-
ton of "Shant5town" which score a
big success in Milwaukee last season.
The play has been entirely recon
structed and resembles the original
very little indeed. It is probable that
it will prove even more popular in its
present form than it was before. The
play loses the fine character work of
"Tom NaWn," who was the leading
member of the company last season
but this is more than made up, so far
as the public is concerned, by the
injection of a perfect fusillade of fun.
Frank Murphy and D. G.. Brode-
rick who take the leading parts do
some clever work.

D. T. Wheaton, G. A. Dushek and
w, P. Fowler.
Among the plans which were dis
cussed for the coming years was the
planting of trees along Atlantic and
Pacific avenues where they lead into
the city. To do this it will be neces
sary for the committee to call on the
citizens for funds and accordingly,
the CITY was divided for this purpose
among the different members OF the
committee. However, voluntary con-
tributions will be very welcome and
NAV be handed to j. A. Johnson, the
treasurer. The committee will also
ask residents to cooperate with each
other in keeping the weeds moved
from the streets and alleys and
vacant lots.
The committee has before it a great
work and it will be possible for them
to make Morris noted all over tie
state for it's beauty and cleanliness
The same condition can perVail he'e e

Moreledge, an actor, who last winter
''held up two restaurants and a saloon in
the center of the business district single
handed in order to get money sufficient

lateral bitches that would irrigate the

States. There is millions in it, read
letters written years ago by Moreledge.
and which were presented in court today
by his attorney in an effort to prove the
prisoners insanity.
James A. Finlay, who was Indian agent
in Pine Ridge, S. D., in $780, during the
uprising of the Sioux Indians there, testi-
fed about how Moreledge made big
money there. Moreledge was there with
photographing outfit after the fight.
After the battle of Wounded Knee, Gen

great numbers and very bloodthirsty.
That night Moreledge was missed and a
search was made for him. The next
morning he came into camp. He had
spent the night on the battlefield of
Wounded Knee, taking fashlight photo
graphs of the dead soldiers and Indians,
and he afterward had these pictures

APOLOGY rs HEREBY MADE.
Mr. VIM B. Guthrie Was Not Delegate to the
Populist Convention.

To the Editor: Your Durham CORE
spondent enormously, and much to my
shame and humiliation, puts me down in
this mornings issue of your paper as one
of the Durham delegates to the Populist
State convention which met in Raleigh
Tuesday.
1t so happened that | was in Raleigh
Tuesday on strictly private professional
business connected with a suit pending in
the United States Court, and my presence
in Raleigh was not in any way, directly
or indirectly, connected with politics. 1t
so happened however, that l had some
business in the office of the United States
Marshal and as | did not find anybody
in the Marshal's office when | called. /
was told perhaps | could find someone
at the convention hall; hence l was in
the hall for not more than five minutes
looking for somebody connected with
the Marshals office with whom to trans
act my business. / think a birds eye view
of that crowd in convention assembled
would have been sufficient to convince
anyone as to how he should vote If
my friends have any doubt as to my po-
litical sentiments in this campaign, my
answer is, that | expect to vote with
and for my own race, and / would advise
all real Populists to go to the polls next
August and do likewise | believe it is
the patriotic duty of every elf-respecting
white man to wash his hands of the mig
ger racket which has SO much disturbed
the peace OF the State in the past, and
put our State government in every de-
partment into the hands and under the
control of white men. Let every white
man face the issue and settle it by vot-
ing with his race.
think your Durham correspondent is
indeed due me an apology, and l am al
most tempted to sue him for SANDER
Yours truly,

(By the Associated Press.)

Washington April 20--Secretary Hay
returned to Washington today from New
York 1t is apparent that, though de-
terfnined upon positive action in the col
lection of it's just claims against the Tur-
kish Government, the State Department
is preceding decOrouSly and with due pre-
cautions against being led into the as
sumption of any position which it cam
not maintain 1t may be stated by au-
thority that the State Department is en-
tirely satisfied of the accuracy OF Minis
ter Straus' statement relative to the
promises made to him by the Porte not
withstanfing the attempted explanations
and efforts to becloud the issue by dec
larations that the Sultans promises were
conditional. The Minister'S dispatches
sent while he was in Constantinople
are couched in exact terms; his written
statements were fully confirmed by his
oral explanations to the department upon
his return to the United States; and
moreover, the pledges he secured were
similar to those made to the two preced-
ing United States Ministers to Turkey. In
the opinion of the State Department off,
cials 1t is inconceivable that three United
States Ministers should be successfully
deceived in the terms of promise or
should have reached similar misunder-
standings.
The approval which the State Depart
ment's latest action seems to have re-
ceived in Europe was anticipated. it being
realized here that several Of the CONT
mental powers having claims similar to
our own against Turkey, being them
selves prevented from initiating any forci-
BILE demand upon the Turkish Government
by reason of the jealousy of their neigh
bors, are entirely willing that the United
States Government should act a pioneer
in this matter and clear the way for a
prosecution Of their own just claims.
1t is also believed here that the Euro
pean powers are hopeful that the atti-
tude assumed by the United States in
the present instance may indirectly serve
to deter the Turkish Government from
the proposed arbitrary increase of per
cent in customs dues which it seeks to
make in defiance of the joint protest of
the European powers. 1t appears that
our Government is lending it's moral sup
port to this protest, for, while not joining
with the others in the combined note,
our charge Mr.. Griscom has been in
structed to make representations on our
own account in opposition to the increase
of duties.
ALI FERROUH BEY'S STATEMENT.

probably would hear from his government
in a short time concerning the American
claims He insists that an amicable set
Element can be arranged AMI repeats his
statement already published that in view
of the high esteem in which be was held
by the Sultan, and the fact OF his acting
in diplomatic capacity, Minister Straus
was not justified in making the assertion
that the Sultan had broken his promise
in regard to the settlement of the claims
