Brenton as a spelIbinder.

Special to TimeS-Republican
Des Mones, Nov. 9.---Des Moines
claims some of the credit for the vic
tory in Crawford county by which a re-
publican representative was elected for
the first time in a long while. AS proof
of this fact the Denison democratic pa
per has been called as a witness, and it
lad the week before the election a lot of
paragraphs like the followin:
Hon. James Brenton, the heavy
weight Irish republican spell-binder. of
Des Moines, made two rousing speeches
in Crawford county this week and urged
the republicans to vote the straight
ticket. For boiler Mr.. Brenton was
unduly apprehensive. When John Mac
Vicar, another Irish republican, was the
republican nominee for mayor of Des
Moines two years ago, Mr.. Brenton
bolted and voted the democratic ticket.
1t is confidently reported that Mr.. Bren-
tons two speeches made the democrats
ut least twenty-seven votes"
And this is sufficient to give the
friends of the aforesaid spell binder rea
osn to claim that he did 1t.

Judges Simonton and Purnell have
ordered special term of the Federal
court (Circuit and District to be hello
at Wilmington beginning the first Mon
day in October instead of the first

not held in October it will have to go
over till January or February.
At this October term of the court the

Opposed War but Has Prolonged 1t by .
His Bravery.
II is not generally known that De
larey, the Boer leader who rushed the |
British rear guard at Vlahonteln'
and thereby precipitated a sharp and
bloody engagement, was one Of the
few conspicuous Beers who opposed
the sending of an ultimatum to Eng
land. He neither liked nor trusted
Kruger, says the Brooklyn Eagle, and
during his eleven years Of service in
the volksraad he invariably discour-
aged any policy calculated to provoke
friction between the two dominant
races of South Africa. His service IN
the field has been marked by energy,
skill and judgment and by powers OF
recuperation which are simply won
derful when one considers the vigor
and effectiveness of his attacks at
Vlakfontein in connection with his
disastrous defeat some months ago at
the hands of General Darlington. He
has suffered privations innumerable
| during the progress Of a war OF which
he did not approve, and his personal
sacrifices have included the loss OF
cherished son, who fell when Methuen
forced the passage of the Modder.
"Are you badly hurt, my boy?" De-
larey is reported to have asked as the
wounded lad was being carried to an
ambulance.
Eyes, / believe I am going to die"
"Good-by, my boy"
"Good-by, father" And Delarey
went back to the firing line and the
boy was carried to the field hospital
where he died an hour later The in
cident, as above detained may or may
not be true, but it is certainly char
acteristic of the stern. silent man whC
fought Kruger and Krugensm in thu
volksraad for more than decade with
out once engaging in debate. And t.
his eternal credit stands the fact tina
of all the Boer leaders he alone ha
refused to impress into his servic
men who have taken the oath of net
trality. Delarey is the Bayard of tn
9 Transvaal, without fear and withou
reproach.

Canadian CharacteristIos.

Geographically, socially and COM
mercially, Canada is but an extension
of the United States, says F. D. Whelp-
ley in Atlantic Politically, deep
gulf separates the two countries,
across which international intercourse
finds it's way only by the bridge OF ne
cessity. Regardless of artificial re-
strictions, the people of Canada find
in the United States the best place IN
which to buy or sell, and the people
of the United States find in Canada
the third largest market in all the
world for the products of American
labor. The dividing line between the
two countries is imaginary. On land
there is no break at the boundary in
the rails of the north and south roads.
Where water intervenes, intercourse
is even facilitated thereby.
There is no marked change of CHI
mate in going from one country to am
other. The language, customs and haD-
it's of the two peoples are generally
! the same. One million Canadian born
have left their native country to add
to the population and energy of the
United States. Thousands of people
have gone from the United States to
Canada, especially in recent years
moved by circumstances or to take adj
vantage of peculiar opportunities. AZ
a nation the people of the Unitee
States are composite to a greater de-
gree than are those of Canada, though
the latter are sufficiently so to induce
the American habit of broad cosmo
politan thought. Canadians are o
much closer kin to the people of tn
United States than those of any othe
country If there is any possible ap
plication of the principle of commu1
ity of interests to two peoples
it could be found in this case.
