The Beers are invading Cape
Colony with a view of arousing
the Cape Dutch against the Eng
lish. Gen. DeWet is the Marion
of South Africa. With a mere
handful of men, the old revolu-
tionary generals combatted sup
erior English forces for seven
long years which finally resulted
in the capitulation of the entire
British army at Yorktown. 1t
will be remembered that General
Marion was a terror to the Brit
ish in the south while Washing
ton kept them engaged in the
north. In many phases the
South African struggle between
the Beers, fighting for liberty,
and the English attempting to
subdue them, is not unlike the
American Revolution. In every
instance the Beers haye defeat
ed larger mum ers of British, the
same as did our forefathers from
IT'S to 1888. It seems as though
the 100000 English soldiers
would eventually subdue this
mere handful of Beers, but in
this instance the Lord may again
be on the side of right, instead OF
the heaviest bata1lions and these
people struggling for their homes
and liberties may finally be free,

J. R. Burton has won the sem
atorial caucus nomination against
Senator Baker, who has with
drawn from the race. Thesca1ps
of some of the federal officers in
this state will now fly. 1t is not
improbable that some-of the post
masters will also lose their polit-
ical heads. We will now observe
with interest the high tributes
some of the country editors will
pay Burton, especially where the
editor is a candidate for the P.
o. We also expect to see Mike
Sutton and Tom Scates relieved
among the first as theywerevery
active Baker supporters. Mr..
Scates had charge of this repre-
sentative district during the cam
paign and was to deliver a Baker
man, but he failed entirely. The
day of the vest-pocket politician
in this county has passed.

legal paper-or in other words,
before it can publish any legal
notices, coming under the laws
of the state, it must have been
published ina county for fifty-two
consecutive weeks. This THE
News has complied with and now
develops into a full-hedged year
ling.
g None but the initiated know
the ups and downs of the news
paper business, especially in the
Western part of Kansas. We
have experienced some of these
hardships, although, from afnan-
cia1 standpoint the receipts of
this office have exceeded our ex-
pectations.
Beginning with this issue we
will give our readers an8-column
paper, instead of a 7-column, as
we published during the year
1900. We feel that the patron
age we have received warrants
this change.
Last year was the writer's first
year IN the sole control of a news
paper. We always had an am
bition to put our ideas of conduct
ing paper, into practical test,
and this we have endeavored to
do. How well they have pleased
the public, remains for you to
Judge. We have 1abored under
the fundamental principles, that
you cannot please everyone, nor
can you, to use common term,
"carry water on both shoulders. "
And while we are aware of the
fact that we have made some en-
emies by some of the courses we
have pursued, we earnestly be-
ieve.we have made many friends.
If we have offended anyone by
the courses pursued by this pa
per, we cannot help it. We have
faithfully and conscientiously
tried to perform our duty to our
selves and to this community and
have no apologies to offer for any
of our actions.
We highly appreciate the pat
ronage given us by the merch-
ants of Meade, by everyone who
has added their name to our sub
scription list, and to everyone
who has in any manner contribut-
ed to the support of this paper,
either directly or indirectly and
we desire to have them continue,
during the coming year, the same
loyal support given us during the
past year. A newspaper, like
any other business enterprise,
to be successful, must have the
support of the community in
which it is published. We shall
always strive to merit this pat
ronage and assure you our last
ing appreciation.
We have not in our disposition
the slightest prejudice against
anyone because of their religious
of political affiliations, and we ex-
pect every man to manifest this
same feeling toward us. We do
pity and deplore the condition of
the poor, narrow-contracted NOR
tai who can see no good, nor en-
terrain a kindly feeling for any,
thing beyond the narrow realm
of his own individual ideas and
thoughts. Such people are DOOM
ed to oblivion, leaving the world
no better by their having lived.
In conclusion we again extend
to you all our thanks for your
hearty and generous support and
we wish all our readers a happy
and prosperous year at this-the
beginning of the twentieth CEN
fury. We r>alize that few, if any,

OBLIGATIONS TO CUBA
GEN. wooD FAvoRs LOWER SUGAR
AND TOBACCO DUTIES.
Regards the Reduction rs Necessar,
for the Financial Rehabilitation
la
Of the Island.

Gen. Leonard Wood. military governor Of
Cuba, arrived here last night. Accompany
Ing him were Mrs. Wood and Lieutenant
Mccoy. The general viii spend some days
In Washington In conference with the
President and the Secretary Of War regard
ing affairs in Cuba. Last night he and
Mrs. Wood paid a social visit to the White
House. Today they went to Philadelphia
to see the foot ball game.
Since his last trip to Washington about
two months ago, General Wood has travelled
over practically the whole island of Cuba,
famfiarizing himself with conditions. and
he Is able to give the officials here COM
piete and intelligent account Of affairs and
the peoples needs. He will reiterate his
previous recommendations for a reduction
IN the duties on sugar and tobacco i'm
posed by the United States government.
General Wood believes this absolutely nee
essary for the financial rehabilitation of the
island and to prevent a recurrence of con-
oltfons which existed under Spanish rrfe
he Will urge earnestly upon the President
ana the Secretary OF War that it is the
duty OF this government, now that 1t has
taken the Cubans under its protection. to
encourage them to become self-supporting
and enable them to continue the good work
OF maintaining the excellent conditions
which have resulted from American occu-
patton
The conditions in the island at present"
says General Wood, "are gratifying. The
Gays OF hunger and actual suffering among
the poor are past, and turmoil and dis
quietude have given way.
III is my opinion that we will be able to
turn over the reins of government to the
Cubans by May.

slons to the Cubans, especially In sugar

With the restoration OF order and open

pected that the Navy Department will be
able to withdraw some Of the United States
warships now on duty in that quarter, ana
1t is probable that one ship will be with
drawn on each side Of the isthmus There
will be no haste, however, in reducing the
naval stregth, as officials feels that the
surrender of the liberals on the isthmue
may not terminate the entire struggle
throughout Colombia. The country is so
extensive and the signs of unrest at in
terror points are so numerous that It Is
believed there may be a recurrence of trou-
BILE on the fsthmus If the insurgents at
other points continue to show strength
