The Weiser SIGNAL appears in en-
larged form last week. 1t was very
creditable issue, and it is unfortunate
that the paper has not sufficient sup
port to justify such publication every
week. The SIGNAL is good paper, and
deserves the support of its community.
To be sure, it gets lost in the tariff fog
raised by the democrats and prefers to
stay lost; but, nevertheless, it is doing
good work for Washingtoncounty, and
its last weeks issue shows how it would
increase its usefulness if it had proper
encouragement. Statesman.

Tuesday morning it was learned
that about 1870 Commonw were
enroute to Weiser on foot, having
been asked to ride a train out of
Huntington and brought across the
river into this county, arrested and
dumped off. A collection was taken
up to get some grub for them and
shortly the advance guard showed up
and commenced cooking up a mess
for those behind. Some snipes with
big, long guns aud commissions as
U. S. mashals also showed up to
protect railroad property from the
desperate and blood thirsty band of
insurrectionists The main body of
Coxeyites came struggling in through
the rain, and as it was impossible to
proceed further they were given
GOWNS hall in which to sleep and
have fire to keep warm. In the
evening they held concert among
themselves, which greatly entertained
number of our people who visited
them. In the morning another col
lection was necessary to get more
grub for them. After breakfast they
sang couple of songs on the street,
were given three cheers by the citi-
zens, and In return they gave three
cheers for the people of Weiser.
They unfurled three star-spangled
banners and formed in marching line.

The Chinese governor of For
mosa has, it is said, offered money
for the heads Of Japanese.
The japanese will not stand bar
barrie warfare very long, and, in re-
taliation may be compelled to pur-
sue the same cruel methods. What
other course can they pursue?
During the Tapping rebellion, in
China, one of the inland cities Of
fered to surrender to General Lii
Hung Chang, and to General Cor
don, provided the lives of the peo-
pie were spared. The terms were
accepted, but, after the surrender,
General Ii beheaded many thou
sands Of them, on the ground that
no agreement made with rebels and
traitors was binding in morals and
law. General Gordon remonstra-
led, resigned, and left the service.
Whether General Ii will pursue
the same policy towards the Japan
csc remains to be seen. Public
sentiment, in China, may force him
to slaughter or torture his pris-
oners. If so, the japanese will be
forced to retaliate, unless the West
ern nations interfere in the inter
ests of humanity. In any event,
we may expect savage warfare in
the early stages Of the conflict.

POSTAGE STAMP CHANGES.
Alterations Both in the Periodical
and Regular Series.

Important changes in the de-
nominations of postage stamps are
contemplated by the Post Office
Department. The principal ones
are in the newspaper and periodical
series, but the regular series is to
be altered. Of the latter the ones,
.twos, threes, fours, fves, skies,
Fights, tens and fifteens, which are
now in use, will be continued. The
present 80 and 80 cent ordinary
stamps probably will be discon-
tinued, and SO cent and 81, 50 and
SIS stamps will be added to the
series.
It is intended to reduce the
number of denominations of the
newspaper and periodical stamps
from "a to II or Is. The dollar
stamp, now printed for the first
time by the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing, is the doubtful one,
but it will probably be finally de-
cided on favorabIy to it's continued
use. The new denominations

the bureau for the first time or to
be issued later are 5, % and so
cents, and 81, So, SIS, $40, $50, $50
and 800. Those to be dropped
out of use are 3, 4, 6, s, II, %, SO,

So, SO, $12, $24, $26, $4S and $50.
The postage due stamps have been
re-engraved under the present con-
tract, and slightly reduced in size
from the former output of the con-
tractor.
All these changes have been prac-
tically approved by the officials,
subject, however, to notifications
if deemed advisable. Am. Ex-

WILL IT BE A BARBARIC WAR?

The existing war between China
and Japan will be watched with
unusual interest by the civilized
nations. Will it be barbaric war,
in which no prisoners are taken,
and no quarter given?
The japanese have adopted the
amenities and methods of the
Western nations, and should, in
this respect, command their sym
pathy.
The circumstances attending the
sinking of the Kow Shung, by the
Naniwa, indicate the attitude of the
belligerents. The Chinese officials
refused to surrender to an over
whelming force. Why? Because
they expected that their bodies
would be mutilated, and their ears
and noses cut off, if they did sur
render. They were told by a Dane
