Aqua pULcE SURRENDERED.
General Bert Only Gave Up When Ills
Cause Was Hopeless.

Panama, Colombia, Sept. 10.-Tha
surrender to the Colombian insurgents
of the government, General Morales
Berti and the troops of his command,
at Aqua Dulce, which has previously
been reported and which was general
ly believed to have taken place, has
now been confirmed. This news
reached Panama through some former
conservative prisoners of the insur-
gents who were liberated at San Car
los as result Of the landing there
of an expedition from theg overnment
feet of gunboats. General Berti, who
has been besieged at Aqua Dulce by
the insurgents since July %, only sur
rendered when his cause was hopeless.
In the act Of surrender the insurgent
general, Benjamin Herrera, declares
he recognizes the abnegation of Gen
eral Berti and his men, whom he sue
ceeded in dominating because of the
superiority Of his forces and the guam
tity of munitions of war of all kinds at
his disposal. He promises to hold in
violate the lives and honor Of his pris-
oners and he allows General Berti to
retain his sword as mark of honor in
recognition of his heroic defense Of
Aqua Dulce.

o sweet September, thy first breezes
bring
The dry leafs rustic and the squir-
rel's laughter,
The cool, fresh air whence health and
vigor spring,
And promise of exceeding joy here
after. George Arnold.
Let us try to make our lives like
songs, brave, CHEEKY, tender, and true,
that shall sing themselves into other
lives, and so help to Tighten burdens
and cares. Anon.
September is come, heigho heigho!
And back to the schoolroom the children
go
To learn to be good, and brave, and
true;
These are the lessons for me and you;
So we'll sing all the happy songs we
know;
September is come, heigho! heigho!

Calamity HoWls.

The democrats are preparing for an
other calamity howl in this campaign.
The text book prepared by the demo-
cratic congressional committee denies
that there is any evidence of prosperity
in the country. This denial seems to be
made in all seriousness and with the
purpose of having democratic speakers
take issue with the most stupendous
facts that have been developed in recent
years. We have only to glance at the
statistics of the last ten years to note
the change in conditions. From 1890 to
1895 the money in circulation increased
from 81, 400, 000,000 to 1900, 900, 600
and from 1895 to 1900 the increase was
from 81, 600 100000 to $4,000, 600, 900.
From 1890, in the middle of the Harri-
son administration to 1895 in the middle
of the Cleveland administration, the
bank clearings decreased from sos Co.,,
600, 600 to $50, 900, 600, 600, and in the
half dozen years since, these clearings
have increased to STA, 900, Goo 900, or
more than doubled since the election of
Mckinley as President.
The savings bank deposits We're ST.
500, 600, 900 in 1890, $500, 600, 600 in
1895, and $500, 100000 in 1900. The
individual deposits in National banks
increased from 81, 400 900, 600 in 1890 to
81, 700, 600, 900 in 1895, and to SO, 100,-
100000 last year. The value of farm
animals decreased from 50, 400, 900, 900
in 1890 to $1,000, GOO, 600 in 1895, and
since that date and the election of Nc
Kinley these values of farm animals
have increased to $4,000, 600, 600. Our
per capita wealth increased from 81, III
in 1895 to 81, 235 in 1900. The factories
have been running full time, the wage
earners have been at work, the farmers
have been paying off mortgages, and
prosperity has been the most conspic-
uous fact in history And still the dem
ocratic calamity howlers deny that there
is any evidence of prosperity. The dem
ocratic committee should elect as chair
man of their calamity bureau, Brother
Jasper" and adopt as their motto: de
sun do move"
