The French othcer Dreyfus is likely
to become as interesting a character
in history as “the Man with the Iron
Mask.” His persecutors have cre
ated a world-wide interest in him
and give his name a place in history
which he never could have gained
for himself however brilliant or pa-
t riot ic lie might have been. He was an
obscure Captinn in the Fiench army,
of Jewish descent, and seems to have

Tne War Department has an

talions or regiments of volunteers
from any state, hut that the recruit

the recruiting stations will be sent on
to till up decimated regiments already

There will he elections in 11 States
and (iovernors w ill be chosen in six,
namely, Maryland, Ohio, Iowa, Mas
sachusetts, Kentuckey and Missis
sippi. In two of those six there will
be no semblance of a contest. Mas
sachusetts will elect a Republican
Governor as usual, and Mississippi
will be still more decisively Demo
cratic. In Iowa the size of the Re
publican majority is always an inter
esting indication of the Middle West.
Twice in recent years the State has
given a Democratic majority. The
other three of tbe six States to elect
Governors are in doubt. These are
Maryland, Ohio and Kentucky, with
the chances favoring the Republicans
in Ohio and the Democrats in Ken
tucky. All of the six States men
tioned have Republican Governors
txcept Mississippi. Iowa elects the
Governor biennially, the pnseit
executive having received a mnjmity
of 30,000 in 1897. Last year the
Slate went Republican by 03 000 and
McKinley carried it by do,000. Mc
Kinley carried Kentucky' by 200
majority, with o,000 votes cast by the
gold Democrats. Last year the
Democrats had a plurality of IS 000
The present Governor, Bradley, is
the first Republican Governor ever
elected in Kentucky. It is eon-
about by the News and Courier re
ceiving a card of thanks from a col

institution/ It is doubtless the ex
perience of every paper that they
publish “piles” of legitimate adver
tising for which they receive no
thanks, much less pay, and which the
public thinks should be published as
news “because.” they say, “it
doesn’t cost the newspaper man any
thing.” They do not stop to think
they have Die same' grounds upon
which to apply to a physician for his
service, the lawyer, the dentist or the
mechanic. They do not stop to con
sider that a professional man’s
knowledge of his ow’n profession is as
much his stock in trade as a mer
chant's goods and cost him as much
in elTort and preparation. An adver
tising dead beat rarely ever stops to
consider that whatever brings re
turns that helps him personally or in
his business is legitimate advertising

experience in tile newspaper business
lias taught us this thing too: that

A NiYsiriAs in Ithaca, N. Y., made
ten visits to a patient and charged
him $10,090, or $1,000 a visit. The
patient refused to pay the hill on the
ground that it was exorbitant, and
the physician has sued him on the
claim. The result of the trial will be
interesting to both doctors and
patients. It appears to this deponent
at this distance that $i.UHifor an
ordinary visit from an ordinary doctor
is just a “Ice-tie” too tight, and we
should he rejected as a juror in the
