Miners Resume Work.

Rockvale mine worked yesterday
and today after lying idle three
days last week owing to the lack
of railroad cars in which to load
the mine product 1t is said that
the scarcity of cars is caused by
the demand for them in the eastern
states to load grain, This trouble
comes up every year and during
next month the mine may necessa-
rily be laid idle several days be-
cause of this After next month
the prospects are good for steady

FOLLOWING A BAD EXAMPLE.

Hon Joseph Chamberlain excuses
the British atrocities in South Africa
by reference to Northern precedents,
during our civil war, and notably the
conduct of General Sherman. Be-
cause one military man makes war
brutally or fendishly that Is ne valid
paIliation for other generals in the
field. General Sherman's cruelty and
barbarlsra are blots upon his martial
record, and he and Sheridan will suf-
fer in reputation while their names
survive.
On the other hand, General Robert
E. Lees character grows brighter and
brighter, because of his magnanimity
and abstention from just such mon
strous actions, even when, as in Penn
sylvania, he could have severely retail
lated upon his foe.
Sheridan, Kitchener or Roberts dims
the splendor of his fame. He made
war like Christian man and civilized
soldier.
The world recognizes his superiority
and subIimity, while condemning his
adversaries, who, after pronouncing
that "war is hell" proceeded to prove
their own deviltry. It gals our
northern brethren to have the British
excuse barbarism by Sherman prece-
dents, and they seek to make distinct
ions between Sherman and Sheridan
and Kitchener and Roberts. But the
essay is a vain one. The Federal ger
erals and the British commanders are
tarred with the same stick.
Indeed, in some respects, the British
are less blamable, because they are
fighting an alien race while the nortf
made war on their own fellow citizens
and they made that war successful by
paying some hundreds of thousands Of
Europeans, along with thousands of ne
grees, to swell their armies over
whelmingly.
OF course, it is amazing impudenc'
for the British, with their hundred
of years of savage warfare, all over The
world, to quote modern yankee" pre-
cedents, IN justification, but it must b.
especially mortifyi ping to our northern
brethren, just now, to read Mr. Leupp''
demonstration IN ''The Forum" nov
the whole pension system is honey
combed with fraud, and to hear ''Joe'
Chamberlain proclaim by telegraph, t.
the universe, that his South African
campaign against women and children
is only following in the wake of Ameri
can generals like Sherman and other
of the same stripe.
