ON The WARPATH.
The Herreros Rising in German
Southwest Africa.
Official Dispatch States That Germans
Have Lost Heavily.
Merchants Charged with Purposely In
voivins Natives in Debt.

Berlin, Jan. 25-An official dispatch
from Windhoek, German southwest
Africa, says the Germans have iost
hea Willy In unsuccessful attempts 10
relieve Okanhandja, that hye settlers
and their entire families have been
murdered and that the Herreros are
threatening Windhoek.
Light has been thrown by the Frank
furt ZcitLng on some of the contribu-
tary causes Of the Herreros rising in
German Southwest Africa as the result
of statements made to that paper by a
traveller who had just returned from
Windhoek and Okanhandja. The mer-
chants and the traders allied with
them are charged with purposely in
volving the natives in debt.
According to this traveller the traders
are largely discharged soldiers whom
the merchants equip with wagons and
from 16 to 20 oxen and goods valued
ut thousands of marks. The traders
sell at first entirely on credit, not re-
uuiring any cash until they make later
trips. The imprOvident natives buy
largely and repeatedly on these easy
terms and the merchants favor the
system by extending and renewing the
credits Of the traders. sometimes 10
$4,000 marks C$375O.
The traders finally begin collecting
portions of the debts. taking cattle in
payment and at the same time selling
more goods on credit. The natives are
often indebted to several traders at
once. The Frankfurt lettings inform
ant adds that he found the merchants
took an average of 20 per cent, proft
on the transactions of the traders and
the latter added 100 per cent. and
usually made 20 per cent. more on the
cattle which they took i'm payment Inc
traders further rouse the anger OF the
natives by seiZing the latters cattle
arbitrarily without waiting for tedious
legal pressure. 1t is true that the au-
thorities forbid this: but the natives
usually do not complain. merely nurs-
ting their grievances and if they do
complain the police have difficulty In
discovering the offending traders.

noticed that you train a good deal with
Senator SOapy-and. what's worse, I've
heard some of the best men here com
ment on that fact. He's a CRATER
from way back know what I'm talk
ing ab0ut-and you're getting tarred
with his stock in the minds of some
mighty good men who wouldn't be seen
in private talk with him-just by the
mere fact of your association with him.
I know you're not his kind. and I don't
want to see you handicap yourself with
& reputation for intimacy with him.
What do you know about him. I
asked.
IT know" replied Hank. rapping the
table with his fist, I've fought him in
his own district from the time he made
his first stump speech-fought him be-
cause he was as crooked and slippery
as a water snake. He's spent the best
part of his life-sincc he began TO read
law trying TO kill me out because /
couldn't be scared or bought into 81
fence on the subject of grating.
came into his district and bought q
country newspaper about the time he
showed his head above the political
waters and began to wriggle his way
toward a seat i'm the legislature. Be
fore Ia been in the place two months
I caught him fair and square in nasty
piece of graft that turned my stomach.
OF course, I said things in my paper
and washed out q few articles of party
linen in the editorial columns That
started the fight and it's beer goinG
ever since.
But he was as slick as ne was shiny
and 7 couldn't always head him Off. We
finally landed in the legislature and
there he turned some tricks to make a
square politician ashamed Of his race.
I Later We locked horns for the consfes-
sional nomination. ne captured it but
Z was showed under ar the polls. IN fact
4 the wnole state went against Us. H.
! became the leader of one faction in the
4 state and I nocked with the other
! When we went in the president cam
paign a sort of truce was patched ~
and J was made secretary of the state
/ central committee. The fight was =
stiff one but By hard plugging We Won
out
OF course that cut. a considerable
/ figure in the general result. and tbs
president indicated that he'd like K
/ do the handsome thing by US. The
leader of our side came on 70 Wash

state so I'd be less in his way. he
had some dirty schemes he wanted 10
work when I cOuldnt be there 10
watch him. And he worked EN-, too.
Then came the senatorial fight. All
my life I've preached ogainst offensive
partisanship and insisted that the men
on the government paE roll, especially
in the departments here in Washing
ton. ought To stick TO their desks and
tend to their knitting instead Of riding
the country working at politics instead
Of earning their official salaries. So,
You see, he rather had my hands tied
on the score Of offensive craftsmanship,
and there was nothing for me to do
but stay here and le. the other boys
make the fight against him. But he
played the soap trick 10 the limit and
finally landed-by the help of every big
corporation doing business in our
state But he can't last, for he can't
let the chance to make a pretty graft
pass-and men who are after small
graft invariably get careless and soon
err or later play themselves into the
hands of justice All this and much
more to the same point has made me
break over and warn you against Sen
ator Soapy.
Right after that talk with Hank
met the senator at the White House,
waiting for an interview with the pres
ident He buckled- his arm through
mine and said:
Wen go in ogetl-er-nothing pri-
vate in what 1 want TO see his excel
lency about
His excellency-tha was just like
Senator Soapy. He would have licked
the presidents boots in the presence
of witnesses III he'd been given half a
chance His toadyiHg iu this direction
later made hiln the laughing stock of
Washington But to get back to my
story We went in together and after
Soapy mad slobbered over the presi-
dent a little he came 81 the point with
the remark:
I've come. SIR. to call your excel
iency's attention to man by the name
of Henry Blank, now holding a posi-
/ ton as one OF tbs postmaster generals
| assistants
Senator interrupted the president,
( TN always delighted to have my at
tention called 20 this man. II your
state has any more such men ] viii
thank you to present their names The
i public service needs more Ike MIN. Il
would be a personal qualification to
me to advance him 10 a still higher p0-
sition, but that is impossible just now.
: BesiGee. his rugged honesty and MS
+ piOdding faithfuiness are especially
needed in the difficult place he now
/ nils Personally, ] lean upon hin
/ heavily. for slis loyalty and judgment
save me from many complications and
( mistakes in the matter OF appointments
{ In the poStofflce service.
That was the neatest blow from q
gloved hand 7 ever saw given in high
8iaees S0apy had come 10 knock ms
enemy out Of official and political life
and the president had taken the words
out Of his mouth. put forward the pre-
