This process is

 It may be further illustrated by we'll
 known incidents in the line of endeav-

 and cruel methods, For example, the
 use of torpedoes buried in paths and
 roads near and under slopes leading to
 fortificatons. It was done by the con-

 in the spring of 1862. As soon as our
 commander found that our soldiers
 were being killed and maimed by these
 torpedoes after the confederate works
 above Yorktown had been abandoned,
 he immediately declared that such use
 of the torpedoes was cruelty and
 against the laws of modern war and he
 had the confederate prisoners who were in our hands marched to the front. He
 then directed that they hunt up these hidden projectiIes and dig them up It was done by these poor fellows, l be- f,,, fee. Still those prisoners were not blamable for the torpedo game and might have suffered horrible mutilation and death. That was cruelty.

BEET SUGAR VIEWS.
WHAT THE REASONING OF THE
 FARMERS
Who Raise Sugar Beets Is-We Arc
 in Duty Bound to Give Them

Itwho Raise Sugar Beets Is--We Are
 in Duty Bound to Give Them 8 Lift.
 The announcement of the recalcit- rant republican senators on the matter of the Cuban Reciprocity bill is, 1t
 seems to us, a proof of the deep and earnest character of this opposition, which sprang up in the House, and though there partly overborne, is now exhibiting itself in the Senate. To most of those who live in the East it seems to be self-eyident that our duty to the Cubans requires that we should sup ply them, for a time at least. with the means of securing their Industrial we'll being. Ours is practically the only coun- try in which they can hope to sell sugar; and yet the tax Which we lm- pose upon this of more than 100 per cent. ad valorem makes 1t exceedingly difficult for them to secure working profit on their crop after the sugar has paid this duty and is sold in the Amer ican market in competition with the sugar of the world.
 We are in duty bound to give them a lift while they are in the process of firmly establishing their government. For the last four years the private debts of the planters and the people have been held in suspense by military order; in word, these debts have been temporarily cancelled but now, with the establishment of an independent government, these debts become reaf- firmed. with, We imagine, an added weight of interest for the three years or more during which they have been held in abeyance. The Cuban people are not in a position to meet these debts and at the same time face a practical loss on every pound of sugar that they grow and send to our market Gen. Wood believed that our concession to them in the way of duty should be not less than 40 per cent, and the 20 per cent. in the House bill was far below what he considered necessary.
 All this is plain enough to people liv- ing in this part of the country. On the other hand, those living in the west ern states have been told during the last few years that the beet sugar in- terest was shortly to become the most profitable farming industry of the United States, and that it was destined to give them taste of those ad-

GIVEN STRYCHNINE.
Attempt Made to Poison the f.
L Anderson Family.

e. l.. Anderson and family residing
in Harrison township are considerably
concerned over two attempts to poison
them or some member of .le family
with strychnine.
The family had been in the CITY
| Tuesday, Aug. 5. Upon returning nome
the family desiring refreshment neat
ed some coffee over and several mem
bers partook of the drink. The coffee
had very peculiar taste and put a
swallow or so was taken. Little was
thought Of the occurrence, however
and nothing said until the following
Sunday, Aug. 10. The family went out
riding and upon returning it was dis
covered that the same stuff had been
placed in some canned cherries that
had been opened and wor d have been
used on the table. The strange odor
and taste was also noted in some
sugar. Mr.. Anderson's suspicious were
aroused and he thought or poisoning.
Some of the sugar was placed on a
piece Of food and given to cat. The
animal was dead In a short time after
the food had been eaten.
Mr.. Anderson brought the fruit and
the sugar to the city and had the tests
for strychnine made and in every case
the tests showed the presence OF a
large quantity of the poison.
Mr.. Anderson and family are at a to-
tai loss to understand who could have
committed sucn an act. They did not
know that they had an enemy in exist
ence. They have not the slightest
clew to the perpetrator or the deed.
When they had gone away from
their home it had been left unlocked
as had been done many times before.
Anyone could have entered the house
unobserved and could have had the
freedom of the place without being dis
covered. The food that was poisoned
had been all right before the family
had left the house to go to the city and
out riding, and hence the strychnine
must have been placed there during
their absence.
The case has been given into the
hands of the county officers and the
most rigid sort of an investigation will
be made.

RELATIONS STRAINED.
Tension Between United States and
Turkey Probably Due to cues
ton of American Claims.

Washington, Aug. 2o.--It is admit
ted at the state apartment that there
is a renewal of tension between the
United States and Turkey, but the Off
Gals do not deem it prudent to dis
close the present condition of affairs.
They say, however, that the condition
is in no way grave, but is of that
strained character which has occurred
from time to time with Turkey in re-
cent years. 1t is gathered that the
present tension grows out of the long
pending claims of Americans who suf-
fered loss during the Armenian out
break. To some extent the Stone abb
duction gave added cause for irrita-
ton. The American minister, Mr..
Leishman, has been given wide lati-
tude to deal with the situation as cir
cumstances may demand. There is the
fullest confidence on the part of the
authorities here in the course being
pursued by our minister, and as he has
been given such free hand in direct
ing affairs it is not thought desirable
to prejudice any steps he may be TAX
ing by official comments as to what
has been or will be done.

HOLINESS CAMP.
Good Work is Being Done at the Tent,
ed City.

The language of Psalms, So, 1871:
"As for me | will call upon God, and
the Lord shall save me-" Evening
and morning and at noon, will | pray
and cry aloud, and He shall hear my
voice." is the language of the Holiness
Camp Meeting now in session one mile
northeast of Oskaloosa. Although the
rain poured down in torrents on the
Sabbath day, the shout of the King
was heard in the encampment, for the
Lord was present in mighty power
from the sunrise service until late at
night. The program was carried out
as IL the weather was as mild as a
bright May morning.
Monday and Tuesday were strong
days for the Lord and yielded good re-
suits, especially at the altar.
Several tents were erected and &C.
cupied by new arrivals. Nearly two
score of tents are now on the ground.
The encampment is the largest it has
been for years. The meeting is well
attended by those from the city as well
as those from the different localities
of Cedar, Eddyville, White Oak, New
Sharon, Taintor, Newton, What Cheer,
Ottumwa, Marshalltown, Keota, Kirk
vile and Bloomfield; Sheppard and
Miller and wife, and Miss Hoyt as
leaders. Everybody invited to come
and praise the Lord. PIP.
