Decisive Battle of World.

According to DR.. Greasy, the dccis-
i've battles of the world have been:
Marathon, B. c. 490, when Greek CIV
iIization was preserved from an Ash
atic inundation; the defeat of the
Athenians at Syracuse, B. c. 413. by
which Rome. instead of Greece. be-
came the schooimaster Of Europe; the
ba tile of Arabella. r. &. $751; which ex-
tended the Greek influences from the
Nile to the Caspian; the battle of Me-
taurus. b. C. POI, which decided be-
tween Carthage and Rome; the vic
tory OF Arminius over the Roman le-
gions under Varus, A. ID. o, which
saved our Germanic ancestors from
enslayement or determination, and
drew the line between the Latin and
the Teutonic races; the battle of Cha
| Ions. A. D. 451, when "the Scourge OF
God" Attila and his Huns ceased their
affiiction over Christendom; the bat
tie of Tours, A. D. 732, when only for
| Charles the Hammer, the Koran might
have been taught at oxford instead Of
the Bible; the battle Of Hastings,
1866, which nigh mettled' the blood
in our veins; Joan of Arcs victory
over the English ct Orleans, 1929, BY
which she rescued her country from
becoming second Ireland;" the de-
feat of the Spanish Armada, 1888,
which checked the sea power Of Spain
and saved England from the Inquisi-
ton; the battle of Blenheim, 11O4,
when Germany was decisively deliv-
cred from Louis XIV; the battle Of
Poltava, 17O9, when Peter the Great
brought Russia into Europe; the vic
tory Of the Americans over BurgOyne
at Saratoga, 1777, by which the New
World was able to work out its own
destinies; the battle of Valmy, 1892,
which proved the power Of the French
Republic; the battle of Waterloo,
1915, which checked the attempt to
found an empire for the aggrandize-
ment of one man. Since Creasy's writ
ings at least four decisive battles have
been fought, viz, the battle OF Gettys-
burg, 1863, which secured the Union
and decided the destiny Of the en-
slaved race; the battle Of Sedan, 1870,
which marked the rise of the German
empire; the destruction Of the Span
ish fleet at Manila bay, 1898, which
made the United States the dominant
mower in the Pacific ocean and marked
its entrance into the world politics

tempt. Mr. Andrews tells in lotus
Leaves" the story of an intended ct
tack upon Fort Sumter which will be
new TO many
General Gilmore had made his
headquarters on Morris Island, where
he had taken the Confederate forts,
Wagner and Gregg. A fleet was sta
toned near, commanded by Admiral
Dahlgren. 1t had been waiting about
for some time, fearful of entering
Charleston harbor on account of sus-
pected mines.
Gilmore, tired of inactiOn, deter
mined to take Sumter by assault. The,
upper part of the fort was IN ruins.
but the lower portion was intact and
garrisoned One night in September
the general signaled the admiral that
he would attack Sumter that night.
The admiral replied that he intended
to do it himself. aud had made his
plans for that very night. Had not
General Gilmore heard Of his inten-
| ton? he asked.
Not very good feeling existed be-
tween the commanders, and the gen
eral answered bluntly that it was very
strange they had both planned for the
same night Were his arrangements
known to the fleet?
The signals went flashing back and
forth. 1t was proposed that the par
ties unite for the attack, but this idea
did not meet with approval. At last
it was decided that each expedition
should act independently, but would
cooperate if necessary, and that the
party who captured the fort should
display red light upon the parapet.
The admiral agreed to send of his
boats at 8 o'clock that night, and that
the generals men, who had farther to
row, should precede them by fifteen
minutes.
General Gilmore, however, could
not resist the temptation of stealing q
march upon his naval rival, and he
started his company as soon as it was
dark enough. From Morris Island tc
Fort Sumter was row of twenty
minutes; but the boats soon returned
reporting that they had not proceeded
more than halfway when a brisk fu
sillade was heard from the fort, ant

room for the teachers. On the second
floor are five school rooms, the prin-
cipaPs office and a large assembly hail
which will seat between four and five
hundred persons. There is not a room
in the entire building which does not
have the sunlight and from sanitary
standpoint the rooms are perfect.
Each school room has a cloak room
which can be entered from the room
only. which win prevent any pilfering
which has been the trouble at so many
of the different schools. The floors
throughout the entire building are
very handsome being of white maple.
The boards are narrow and beautifully
matched Between the floors is a
sound deadener of felt and fibre sub
stance which completely deadens any
sounds that may be made in any OF
the different rooms. The pupils of the
new Quincy school will never have to
listen to the tramping of pupils in
the rooms above as is so frequently
the case in many schools. The upper
and lower halls of this building are
wide and spacious and the walls are
finished for several feet with thing.
In fact there are no wooden base
boards used. In the different rooms
a hard cement plaster takes the place
of the old base boards The stairs are
wide and shallow and easy OF ascent.
The main entrance of the building is
on Quincy street but there is also
large entrance on Fairchild street on
the south and another on the north.
Massive stone steps lead up to the
entrances In fact the new Quincy
school building is all that could be
desired, and happy are the North side
pupils whose fortunate lot It Will be
to attend school here, and happy are
the teachers who will have such pleas
ant rooms in which to spend the ma
jor portion of their days. L. M.
Wood, the architect, and J. S. Morse,
the contractor, have certainly erected
for themselves what will be a lasting
monument. This school house will
probably be ready for occupancy some
time in the early spring.

FROM WEBB NIcNALL.
He Explains That s.Items in NIisceI-
lancous Appropriation Bill.

/ Gaylord, Kan, March IL. 1905
To the Editor of the State Journal.
In your issue of Friday you call at
tention to an item in the miscellane-
Gus appropriation bill for myself IN
the sum of $500, and leave the i'm
preston that the item is wrong and
should not have been allowed.
Here are the facts: At the special
session of 1898, I as superintendent
of insurance recommended to the
governor a bill providing for direct
taxes upon all companies doing bust
ness in Kansas. When the legislature
convened in Decent Der Hugh Farrelly
introduced the bill that became a Law
at that session providing for what is
known as the and per cent direcS
tax, and within sixty days after the
passage of the law collected and
turned over to the state treasurer
over $55. 29O, more money from the
same com panieS than was ever collect
ed before After / went out of Office
the latter part of March, 1893, 1 was
sued by the metropolitan Insurance
company of New York for the sum of
over $1,306, with per cent interest.
claiming that ] had construed the
law, so that it was retroactive in its
provisions. in other words in collect
ing the money one year before it was
due. Ex-Chief Justice Horton was
their attorney. 7 was sued in the dis
trict court of Shawnee county. / was
beaten in the lower court. I eu-
plOyed Attorneys Quinton & QuintOn
to assist me in the supreme court We
were successful, the entire court hold
ing that I rightfully collected the
money. I was out of pocket $50 for
printing brief and other expenses. In
the legislature of 1903 the senate
committee on ways and means al
lowed to Webb McNaH and Quinton
& Qufnton attorneys fees in said case
before the supreme court the sum Of
one thousand dollars 1t passed the
senate without one dissenting vote.
When it went to the house it was re
ferred to the house committee on
ways and means, and I omitted to go
before them, when the bill got back
on the calendar Webb McNalls name
was omitted and the item was cut
down to $500, for Quinton G Quinton
Il got the cahOOts.) This winter
went before the Joint committee on
ways and means" and they allowed
me the $500. There was only one
member of the house that was op-
posed to the bill. and he said that his
conscience would not permit him to
support the same but he supported
all of the other items in the miscei-
laneous appropriation bill.
I might further say. had this suit
against me been successful it meant
for the state to refund to the insGr-
ance companies the sum of $55,
with. 6 per cent interest.

DEMOCRATS ISSUE ADDRESS.
They Review the Local Political situa-
ton in Topeka.

To the Democrats of Topeka:
The Reublicans have fought over
again the battle of the Vets against
the Drys and the Vets have won by a
decisive majority and II their ticket is
elected we will have two years to OBJ
serve the manner in which Mr. Davis
will enforce all the ordinances of the
city to the satisfaction Of the wet
element.
In his platform Mr.. Davis saws. ssT
am in favor of the enforcement of all
the ordinances of the city, In his
Campaign he has attracted to his ban
ner every representative of the wet
element, and that element never raj
has his promise, express or implied, to
deal gently with its interests. He is,
therefore, bound to fool one or the
other of the two classes. If he does
enforce all the ordinances he must
disappoint the wet element If he
does not enforce all the ordinances he
will break faith with the public to
whom his platform pledge was given.
We have received no help from
either class. No pledge has been ask
ed and no promise given.
If elected our candidates will enter
upon the discharge of their duties with
clear =consciences, unhampered by
promises, under obligations to no class
and absolutely free to do what they
consider for the best interests of the
city.
Our candidates are strenuous young
business men who are making sacri-
fees in accepting nominations and
with the exception of Mr.. Griley,
whose loyal services in the past com
PEELED his denomination, were drafted
and by sheer force compelled to ac-
cept- They are men of some means,
taxpayers and interested to such an
extent in the welfare of the city, that
if elected their best efforts will be put
forth in its behalf.
Each of our candidates has a busi-
ness of his own which supports him
and none of them seeks office because
of failure to make a living in other
ways.
The press has spoken kindly of our
ticket and the public generally has
complimented the party for making
such nominations.
Many questions of Importance will
arise in the next two years. The
waterworks must be started right
Taxes must be reduced. Repairs on
paving will be necessary. Expendi-
lures must not exceed receipts Fran
chises must be granted but only on
terms that will allow the city to abso-
lutely control and share in profits.
Public improvements must be en-
thing besides signing bonds issued by
the city and franchises granted by it.
Our ticket should receive the active
support of every Democrat in the city
as well as that of all good citizens
without regard to party.
By order of the Democratic city cen
traI committee.
