STRUGGLE

Honor of France Before the World Is at
StakeHis Defenders Will Exact
Rehabilitation of the Condemned
Less for His Sake Than for the
' Sake of France.
New York, Sept. 2. The Journal
and Advertiser prints a dispatch from
Paris diving the full text of Entile Zola's
letter, a portion of which is as follows :
"D ar Madame: Your husband and
those who defended him have been ex
posed to the vilest insults, and even to
bodily insults. For my part, these are
organs belonging to the 'gutter press'
and men eo tainted with moral dirt that
I have struck them from my life, from
my memory. For me they are no more.
I have driven them aa completely from
my thoughts as if I neyer had swallowed
them. It is such forgetful nees of atrocious
insults that I recommend to the innocent
man who has suffered the wrongs. lie
is so much apart, so far above them all
that they ehouid not ba able to reach
him. May he come to life again, under
your care, and under the clear sunshine
of universal sympathy shown for hi r.
Peace be to the martyr who bas such
need of repose, and around him now in
retreat may there be nothing but love
nd caresses. As for as, madame, we
ball continue to fight. We shall to
morrow go on with the struggle for
justice just as Bternly as we pursued it
yesterday. We shall exact rehabilita
tion of the innocent less for the sake of
Liui, who has already eo much glory,
than tor Fiance, which would assuredly
be killed by this excess of infamy. Our
task wid b the regeneration of France
in the eyes of the universe, w hich will
ttke place when the infamous judgment
bag been quashed. A great country can
not lire without justice, and ours will
remain in mourning just as long as the
slain ia leveled at the highest jurisdiction
nd the violation of the primitive rights
hall remain.
"The social fabric crnmblrs when the
guarantee of law no longer exists, and
there is in this violation of right such
an element of Insolence, bravado and im
paJence that we cannot ignore It. We
cannot bury a body secretly without
bowing our shame to our neighbors.
The whole world has seen and heard,
nd it is lx-fore the whole world that
reparation should take place. To de
ire aFrance without honor is criminal."
CRIME OF A

W'Ai.la Walla, Sept. 21. Under the
brow of a hill a few hundred yards from
lie state penitentiary, a triple tragedy
took place between 2 and 3 o'clock this
'ternoon, resulting in the death of one

ASKS WHAT DID
THE HERO DO
Answers the Question Himself by Say
ing That He Shot to Pieces at
Long Range a Lot of Hulks and a
Few Hundred Spaniards.
Toronto, Ont., Sept. 22. Gold win
Smith, writing in a local paper, says:
"Nothing could show the extent to
which the head of Columbia had been
turned by the war more than her adora
tion of the hero Dewey. What did the
hero Dewey and his comrades do? They
eat ia almost perfect safety and destroyed
at long range a line of helpless tubs,
with some hundreds of the poor
Spaniards who uianned them, and who
alone bad any opportunity of showing
heroism on the occasion. So perfectly
secure did the Americans feel that they
ahjourned to breakfast in the middlo of
their sport. There was among them a
single casualty, anil had they all gone
tiger hunting one casualty at least pro
bably would hove ocenrred.
"For this, however, Dewey is declared
to be the equal of the great seaman who
conquered iu the terrible days of Abou
kir, Copenhaget, Trafalgar. If he were
so inclined he might probably be elected
president of the United States. .
"Canada cannot possibly take part in
the celebration of Dewey's triumphs
without an evidence of discourtesy tow
ard Spain, a friendly nation, which
has done Canada no wrong. Spain, let
it be remembered, though deprived of
her possessions in this hemisphere, is
still a Mediterranean power, decayed at
present, but capable of restoration. The
British government will hardly thank
the Canadian government for making
her an implacable enemy."
Cougar Sprang For a Calf.
Astohia, Sept. 23. Aa Frank Surpre-
nant was coming into town this morning
from his Olney ranch, he saw a cougar
attempting to kill a calf on the road near
Greenwood cemetery. Hi says it was
crouching at the sido of the road. As
the calf was paseing, the cougar made a
spring for it just as Mr. Surprenant
made an outcry which startled the beast
so that it only irot its claws on the side
cf the calf and then ran away. The calf
was only sightly injured.

THE CONTEST A
NATIONAL ONE
Seventy-five Thousand Persons Hear
New York Governor Discuss the
Issues of the Day.
Akios, O., Sept. 23. The Republican
state campaign was opened here today
with one of the largest crowds known in
the hhtory of politics in Ohio. Judge
Nsh arrived from Columbus at 7 o'clock
this morning, accompanied by Colonel
Dick, Secretary of State Kinney, Auditor
Gilbert and Hon. P. M. Daugherty, who
was his leadingopponent for the nomina
tion before the Columbus convention.
Governor Roosevelt and his escort, the
Tippecanoe Club, of Cleveland, did not
arrive until after 12 o'clock. An im
mense crowd greeted t hem at the station.
Judgs Nash, Governor Roosevelt, Sena
tor Ilanna, Colonel Dick and other dis
tinguished guests went to the Elks'
cluhrooms, where they ate dinner with
the newspapermen. This was entirely a
nonpartisan affair.
The parade began at 2 o'clock. It was
in six divisions and in charge of Captain
Wagner, as general marshal. There were
15,000 men in line. The most conspicuous
features were the escorts of Colonel
Rooeevelt and Judge Nash, the one of
veterans of the Spanish-American war,
and the other of veterans of the civil
war.
The meeting was held at Grace Park,
within the confies of which fully 75,
000 people gathered, only a smalt portion
of whom could get within range of the
voice of the speakers.
AN EXCURSION
TRAIN WRECK
Six Persons Killed in a Train Collision
on a Colorado Road.
Dknver, Colo., Sept. 23. A special to
the News from Florence, Colo., says:
One of the most appalling accidents in
the history of the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad occurred at 4 o'clock this alter
noon, four and one-half miles west of this
citv. Six persons were killed outright
and five badly injured, among whom
were throe from Spokane.
The killed and injuied were passengers
on a Phillips-Judson excursion train,
westbound, which collided with an east
bound freight train. The excursion
train consisted of tne day coach and two
Pullman tourist sleepers. There was
about forty passengers, most of them
from Massachusetts, en route to the
Pacific oast. The special had orders to
run to Reno siding and when only a few
hundred yards from the siding it collided
with the freiaht train. The trains came
together with terrific force. The second
Pullman telescoped the first one, and
the day coach is a complete w reck.
The freight train consisted of fifty
narrow-gauge cars, loaded with ore and
lumber, and wreckage is strewn along
the tracks for nearly half a mile.
All the trainmen saved themselves by
jumping. It is understood the freight
train had orders to take the sidetrack at
Reno, but for some reason it failed to do
so.
A special with physicians was sent
from this city to the scene of the wreck,
and the surviving pasen-rs were
brought to this city. Later the injured
were taken to Pueblo.
Probable Rate War.
pmrinn. Sent. 23. In railroad circles
here a general western rate war is re
garded as imminent.
John Charlton, general passenger
.ni nf the Alton, today notified the
chairman of the Western Passenger
.,.tmn tnat his road would meet all
cuts of competitors over Its own counters.
The western Immigration ourean,
i,.. mtled with the question of
competing with the Canadian Pacific in
immigrant traffic, has decided that no
satisfactory arrangements can be made
with the Canadian road. Successful com
petition has been hardicapped, it ia
asserted, by the Southern Pacific, which
demanded a full proportion of the traffic
rate west of Ogden.
It has beeu decided that if this road
does not recede from its position tickets
shall be routed west of Ogden via the
Oregon Short Line and Oregon Railroad '
& Navigation Company to Portland, and
from there to San Francisco by boat, or
over the Santa Fe.
TOO SLOW
FOR JINGOES
Government Is Running a Risk bv Its
Renewed Patience Loyalists Get
ting Tired London Papers Coui:
meot Variously on Slowness of
the Ministers.
London, Sept. 23. The sands are run
out, but all too slowly for the jingo
party.
The Morning Poet editorially warns
the government that it runs a twofold
risk bv its renewed patience, first of ex
hausting the patience of the loyalists In
South Africa; second, of its supporters
at home, who Are not too enthusiastic
over its previous dealings with imperial
questions.
The Chronicle bluntly tells thegovern
ment that ''their proceedings are un
dignified," adding "the fact remains
that Kruger bag been given another
period of grace, thanks, primarily, to
the fact that we are not prepared for war,
butaleo probably to Salisbury's moderat
ing Influence on Chamberlain's impetu
osity." It is asserted in Cape Town that the
combined Transvaal and Orange Free
Stats tactics will be to prevent British
advance from the Natal border, and to
assume the offensive against British
territory from along the unprotected
Orange river border. Kruger's hope is
thus to snatch victory as in 1881 and
secure easy terms of peace.
An interesting note in Connection with
the attitude of the Afrikanders is that
Secretary of State Reilz is Premier
Schreiner's brother-in-law.
Lymph Cure for Insanity.
Jot.iKT, III., Sept. 23. Irwin Fuller
Bush, a young married man of this city,
was sent to the Kankakee asylum last
March, pronounced helplessly insane.
Today, through treatment with lymph
from the glands of goats, Bush is at
heme, completely restored in mind and
body. The lymph has tean discovered
by Dr. Roberts, a physician of Greene
City, Mo. Its application for insanity
cases was demonstrated at a Chicago
laboratory, where Bush was taken last
June. He was subjected to injections of
the lymph, showing steady improvt
ment until he was discharged last Tues
day, cured. Dr. Roberts has gone to
Europe to lay his discovery before Prof.
Koch, ot Berlin, and other foreign
scientists.
Trying to Get a Cannon.
Salkm, Or., Sept. 23. Gov, Geer has
been endeavoring ever since his decision
to present the Oregon volunteers with
medals, to secure a cannon out of which
to make them. So far tie has hern un
successful, but he has not given up. He
has been informed there are plenty of
cannons in the Philippines, but there
are great obstacles in the way of taving
them shipped. He hopes to have one
sent on one of the transpoitf, and alter
the arrival will hurry along tho mai a-
factute of the medals.
Austrian Cabinet Resigned.
Viknma, Sept. 23. At the cabinet
Council this morning the minister j rt
I lived to resign in a body. The premier
and minister of the interior, Count
Thun Honenstein, saw the emperor at 1
o'clock and tendered the resignation of
the cabinet. The crieis was caused by
the Impossibility of terminating the par
liamentary deadlock.

Manila, Sept. 2."i. It is reported that

States gunboat Urdaneta, iu the Orani

One one-pounder, one Colt automatic

Was Oregon Boy.
Washington, D. C, Sept. 25. The
gunboat Urdaueta, which was captured
with her crew, about twenty-five miles
from Manila, is alittlecraft of only forty
tons displacement, not much larger than
a small tug. . She was captured by the
navy early in the war, and has been on
police duty iu the bay fur several months
past. The records of the navy depart
ment show that she was one of the boats
of which the Oregon is the parent ship.
That Is, she was supposed to draw all ul
her supplies from the battle-ship, to be
manned from tho Oregon's crew, and to
act under instructions of the Oregon's
commander.
According to last reports to the de
partment, the little boat was last May
under command of Naval Cadet Welborn
C. Wood, but the personnel of the crew
is not a matter of record, bing subje.'t
to frequent change. Wood was appointed
to the naval academy from Oregon, had
passed his academic course, and was
performing sea service at the time of the
capture.
Naturally the department officials are
vexed that difficulties of the negotiations
looking to releaseof Lieutenant. Gilmore,
of the Yorktomn, and his men should be
added to by this hint misfortune. Still
there is no disposition unnecessarily to
curb junior officers of the navy who are
rendering such gallant service in the
Philippines.
