Guiana.
In March, 1895, he was transported
to DEVILS island. He was for two
months chained to his pallet.
In May, 1896, letter stolen from
Colonel Schwarzkoppen, was brought
to the war Office. 1t bore the sigma
ture of Major Esterhazy, an officer OF
doubtful reputation on the French
general staff, and the handwriting was
found to be similar to that of the
Dreyfus letter.
Two years of tremendous agitation
followed, the friends of Dreyfus striv-
ing to bring out the truth and the
army officials to suppress it.
In 1898, Colonel Henry of the intel
ligence department confessed to hay
ing forged a secret document which
pointed to Dreyfus' guilt, and com
mitted suicide.
Major Esterhazy was tried by court
martial and convicted, but escaped
and made his way to England. There
he confessed that he had written the
| letter to Colonel ,Schwartzkoppen
which had resulted in the conviction
of Dreyfus.
In June, 1899. the court OF appeals
ordered that Dreyfus be given new
trial by court-martial.
In August, 1899, after more than
four years of torture ON Devils island,
| Dreyfus was again given military
trial, found guilty with extenuatlng
circumstances, and sentenced to serve
ten years, from which his previous

Iowa a Refuge From Oppression

Des Monies, Ia-Iowa may well be
called a cradle in which the offspring
of religious revolutions in many Euro
pean countries were nourished to life
and prosperity or soothed to peacefui
death.
When oppression of the established
church weighed heavily upon reform
ers in France, Germany and Holland,
the new world was sought as refuge
and the fertile valley between the
Mississippi and Missouri river offered
hope of sustenance and freedom OF
thought. Within six years, from 1872
to 1S4S. men and women speaking the
languages of many nations, bearing
the faith of many religions in their
hearts and having hope of prosperity
through as many social plans, MADE
their home in that territory yet 10 De-
cone prosperous Iowa.

Bishop Was "Not Guilty"

Upon one of his tours, Bishop Pot
ter spent few days at the home OF
a prominent churchman. The latter's
wife took particular pains in making
the bishops room worthy of the
guest, and among other things intend
ed for his comfort put fine silver
toilet set on the bureau. The bishop
however, preferred his own, and
transferred the set to drawer. The
consequence was that when the host
ess went to the bishops room after
his departure, the silver set was miss
ing. She worried for several days.
then finally summoned up courage to
write very apologize letter to the
bishop, asking if by any chance he had
found any of the articles among his
luggage. There was an immediate
and characteristic reply. The tele-
gram read as follows:

Radical Policies Run
Through Party Lines

More than in any previous year men
of al! parties have been unwilling to
tolerate the leadership of tainted poll
ticians or untried asprants for Office.
Insurance exposures, rebate prOsecu-
tons and increased cost of living, de-
spite the continuance of great business
activity, al combined to \stiffen the
popular demand for square deal poll
ties and anti-monopoly legislation,
however people differed as to partc-
ular ways and means.
On the Republican side President
Roosevelt voiced this sentiment with
his successful call for the rate, pure
food. meat inspection and industrial
alcohol laws and through his open OPP
position to the beef. railroad, coal,
sugar and other trusts, eliminating in
challenge to mortal combat with the
financial aggregation headed by John
y. Rockefeller At the same time that
the president called halt on the cX-
pose writer's i'm his muck rake"

servative by limiting at the idea of Il

Executive Activities In
South and Central America

What the administration regarded as
structivc craftsmanship touching the
public interest along numerous lines Of
action in the various executive depart
mcnts was the spectacular South Amer
lean journey of Secretary of State
Root. At Rio JaneirO he was received
with marked distinction blythe Brazil
ian government and by the members of
the pan American congress. To all he
bore testimony to the good will of the
United States government and to the
absence OF any ambitious designs for
territory or conquest.
When after election the president
made his three days personal inspec
ton of the great isthmian canal work
he was nightly pleased with what had
been done. 1t was the first time that
the chief executive had left American
territory. The new commission APP
pointed JULY consisted of Messrs.
Shonts, Stevens. Magoon, Hams, Endi-
colt and uarrOd. 1t came to the con-
cluson that it would be advisab BILE to
employ q certain number of Chinese
laborers on the canal and that it would
not be practicable to apply the eight
hour regulation to the canal zone On
his return voyage the president visited
Porto Rico
An executive order on SEPT. 10 ex-
tended the eight hour law to all pub
lie works. whether conducted in gov
ernment shops or otherwise. The civil
service rules also were extended to
include all laborers in the government
employ.
The part played by the interstate
commerce commission was extensive
and varied. beginning with the execu-
ton of the order of congress to inves-
tigate the coal carrying railroads and
the great oil combine. The examina-
ton of Pennsylvania railroad officials
shocked the public by its disclosure of
numerous official holdings of stock in
coal companies. which was open to no
other construction than that of bribery
to secure railroad favOrs. Newly APP
pointed members of the enlarged com
mission were f. K Lane. John S. Har-
Ian and e. Il. Clark. When the rate
law went into effect on AUG n, for
the first time in the history of the
country all interstate commerce was
under the control of this commission.

Liberal Aspirations Sway
Governments of the Old World

A survey of the various natiOnalitieS
shows a decided drift toward liberal
institutions and standards.
ENGLAND.-To begin with, the cleo
ton of new British parliament last
January resulted in an overwhelming
victory for the Liberal party, qualified
only by the sudden rise of Il powerful
labor party. Campbell-Bannerman in
Balfour's place organized a strong
composite ministry Of self made men.
The parliament stood with 81 Iiber-
ais, 1856 Unionists, SO Nationalist and
80 Laborites. When the kings speech
frankly declared for radical home
rule policy in Ireland the opposition
mustered only lightweight votes. 4
