coal miners in their strike for nobody

promising attitude of their employers.
There is not much of it in the strike OF
the teamsters for the Chicago packers,
which has widened in it's sympathetic
affiliations until it embraces the entire
body OF teamsters in Chicago, so that
the entire meat supply of hotels, res

And neither side shows any sign of
yielding. There are strikes here and
there all over the country, every one

labor and capital are approaching each

plorable that the general prosperity

PEACE At List.

The South African war now belongs
to history. Peace has now been de-
clared. The war which has closed
began in October 1899, since which
time over $1,000 British officers and
soldiers have died in South Africa.
and over 10000 have been reported as
"missing and prisoners. - Over 10000
have been sent home assinvalids. The
BoerzIoss cannot be estimated as there
are NO statistics at hand. r~Over $4,000
were taken prisoners. England has
had over half million men in the
field during the conflict, 100000 insthe
field at. one time: The war has cost
Great Britain" so far 81, 250, 100000.
Among some of the notable engage
ments of the war are as follows:
Mafeking, Kimberley, Ladysmith, BEL
mont, Gras Pan, Modder, River, Storm
berg, Magersfontein, Tugela River,
Ransberg, Spion Kop, and others Of
lesser Importance. By the terms of
peace the Beers will be assured of a
participation in a free representative
colonial government in which they
will stand on equal terms in the popular
electorate with the Uitlandres. Their
homes will be rebuilt and their farms
restocked with cattle by the British
government, and the imprisoned and
exiled Beers will be released. Dutch
and English will both be taught in the
schools and Dutch will be used in the
courts if necessary. There will be no
tax on the Transvaal to pay the cost of
the war. The war was one that meant
defeat to the Beers sooner or later. but
by their heroic. struggle they won the
admirationsof the world, and now let
US hope that with their destiny linked
with that of Great Britain the brave
Beers will live long and prosper.

4 REBUKE FROM THE PRESIDENT.

j. REBUKE FROM THE PRESIDENT.
In his Memorial Day address at Ar
lington cemetery President Roosevelt
delivered very patriotic address, and
one of the features of his address was
his allusion to 1.-THE younger comrades"
the sons of veterans Of the civil war
who are defending the American cause
in the. Philippines. The president al.
luded to the fact that some of the
American officers had been committing
acts OF cruelty President Roosevelt
said: 8 -'*@~@~ -. = EFf !
'The fact that for every guilty act
committed by one of our troops hun
dred acts of far greater atrocity have
been committed by the hostile natives
upon our troops, or upon the peaceable
and law-abiding natives who are
friendly to US, can not be held to ex-
cuse any wrong-doer on our side. De-
termined and answering effort must
be made, and is being made, to find out
every instance of barbarity on the part
of our troops, to punish those guilty of
it., and to take, if possible, even
stronger measures than have already
been taken to minimize or prevent the
occurrence of all such instances in the
future"
After this allusion to one of the in
cidents of war, the president took &C.
casion to administer a severe rebuke
to those of our own citizens who are
slow to condemn lynchings in the South
and who seem to justify these acts of
savagery. President Roosevelt said
"the men who fail to condemn these
lynchings, and yet clamor about what
has been done in the Philippines, are
indeed guilty of neglecting the beam
in their own eye, while haunting their
brother about the mote in his"
The president made an able defense
of our present position in the Philip
pines and one that the opponents of the
present policy of the United States in
the Philippines will have hard work to
answer. In closing he said:
''This should no more be party
question than the war for the union
should have been party question. At
this moment the man in highest office
in the Philippine islands is the vice
governor, General Luke Wright of
Tennessee, who gallantly wore the
gray in the civil war and who is now
working hand in hand with the head
OF our army in the Philippines, Adna
Chaffee, who in the civil war CALAMITY
wore the blue. These two, and the
men under them, from the North and
from the South, in civil life and in mil
itary life, as teachers, as administrat-
ors, as soldiers, are laboring nightly
for us who live at home. They are
doing a great work for civilization, a
great work for the honor and the in
terest of this nation, and above all for
the welfare of the inhabitants of the
Philippine islands. All honor to them:
and shame, thrice shame, to US if we
| fail to uphold their hands!''
