The Secretary of the Pierce County
Central Fair Association is already
on deck with his prospectus. He
promises that everything snail be on a
bigger, better and a broader scale
than ever and that the fair this year
shall be worthy representative of
the resources of our county. In order
TO carry out his plan it is necessary
that River Falls do her share. Cannot
our merchants do something in this
line? Ii not singly why can't they
take booth and hit it up for the
honor and glory of River Falls:
Moral: Everybody must make his
plans To visit Ellsworth fair time and
if possible take some part therein.
Hon. f. G. Mills of Superior was in
town this week looking up the chances
for congressional nomination. Mr..
Mills is talented lawyer of the City
by the Lake and at the last congress
siOnal conventional gave Mr.. Haugen
warm endorsement. He claims
that Superior is now entitled by its
Importance and situation to a repre-
sentation at Washington and If his
cbauraS N 70 NOT mood fbat soma atbar
Superior man should have the plum.
1t would seem just that the great
comm ecial interests of the shipping
port of the northwest should be
worthily represented and now that
Mr.. Haugen is probably out of the
race we cannot see any just cause for
overlooking its claims. 1t is TO be
hoped that Superior will therefore put
forward a good, clean, strong man,
well equipped for the work and if so we
do not doubt that her candidate will
find warm friends in Pierce county.

WANT PEACE.
But China's Pride will Not Admit of an
Arbitrator.

But China's Pride will Not Admit of an
Arbitrator.
Washington, November 12.-It is un-
derstood that the assurances China has
given respecting the proposed mediation
of the United States between China and
Japan do not favor arbitration, but
look only to the use by the United
States Of its good Offices in bringing the
two hostile countries together, with
view to peace negotiations. China's
pride will not permit her to accept the
services OF any country as arbitrator, but
she will gladly accept the services of
President Cleveland in arranging the
preliminaries leading to cessation of
the troubles between herself and Japan.
The Chinese minister here, of late has
had repeated interviews with Secretary
Gresham, bearing upon the matter, and
no ,dou bt is entertained that the end of
hostilities in the east is nearly in sight.
While there is little doubt Japan will
accept the friendly Offices of the United
States, there will be no cessation OF ag-
gressivegmovements on her part until a
definite arrangement is had. For this
reason there will be no delay, if both
countries agree to mediation, in bringing
them together at the earliest moment,
In order that further bloodshed may be
avoided.

RAISE RATES OF INTEREST.
Immediate Effect of the Proposed Issue of
Bonds.

New York. November 1s.-;Accoraing 10
good authority a new government loan will
be issued as soon as the details are per-
fected and circulars printed, probably We'd
nesday morning. The issue will be $50.0p0-
600 of per cent bonds. redeemable in ten
years. No upset price will be fixed by the
government. Assurances are received by
leaders in the movement which warrant 5
the assertion that the issue will be largely
over subscribed. Bids will be on a trifle
better basis than the per cent The banks
late today refused to make time loans on
rates prevailing, as it is expected the main
portion of The s5s.Ooo,OOO gold paid for bonds
will be with drawn from New York banks
and trust companies. This will raise the
rate of interest in anticipation of this re-
suit. Banks and trust companies decline
to loan money until the effect upon interest

1t Is Thought the Oysters Served
Caused the Illness.
Middletown, Conn. November 12.-The
faculty issued a statement today regarding
the cause of the epidemic here. Most of
the sick are improving, but some are yet
seriously i'll. The statement is: The most
careful investigation of the recent
epidemics of typhoid few or were made by
the members of the faculty assisted by
members of the state board of health. The
trouble is found to be confined to members
of three fraternities among the students.
After thoroug study of the facts the con-
olusion of the faculty independently con-
formed ny members of the state board of
health is the whole trouble was due to he
initiation suppers held by the.fraternities
held on the evening of October 18TH In
nearly all cases .the disease appeared, the
second and third week following those sup
pers. 1t appears almost certain that the
especially exciting cause was lot of in

Victoria, B. e., November 12.-The fol-

are received by steamship Miowera:
"The election was had October 29th,
for senators and representatives for the
legislature on this island, and all the
candidates of the American Union par
ty were elected. The single opposition
candidate failed of election. On the
other islands the candidates elected are
nearly all active supporters Of the re-
public. 1t is believed that all the sena-
tors strongly support annexation, not
withstanding the disposition of some of
the planters to advocate the continued
independence of the republic in order to
be free to import Asiatic contract labor.
H enry P. Baldwin of Maine stands at
the head of the planters as leader in
legislation, He has come out strongly
for annexation, Notwithstanding his de-
sire as planter for cheap labor. He be-
Heves that if annexation abollshes the
contract labor system, it will more than
compensate i'll otherways. He thinks
there are too many Japanese in the
country now, aud that Portugu ese
should be introduced instead; that the
plan of cooperative planting, or. share
system, may succeed.

MR.. WILLIAM W. BROWN,

of the Berlin Mills company, said that as a
property owner on Commercial street, he
felt that we should have a very efficient
service on the water front, and believed
that the city should own it's own boat. Mr..
Payson had said that at times engines could
not be used on the wharves. This was true.
The Berlin Mills company's wharf was often
bloc kaded with cars to such an extent that
engines could not be used.
MR.. JOHN B. COYLE
said that the steamship companies which he
represented had about million dollars
worth of property at stake on the water
front, and he felt that the city should own
fire boat and control it night and day.
MIR. JOHN q. TwITCHELL
said that he fully concurred with what had
already been said by the gentlemen who
favored the plan for the city to own and
control its fire boat. Engines could not get
onto the wharf occupied by his company
and save the brick block.
MR.. FRANK DUDLEY
recalled the severe fire of five years ago,
which happened under very favorable con-
ditions of the wind. With less favorable
conditions the loss would very likely hs We
been up in the millions. The city should
own and operate its own fire boat.
Mr.. Thomas j. Little presented a letter
from the board of under writer's, contain
| ing series of resolutions recommending
| that the city front be protected by fire
boat and urging prompt action. Mr. Little
said that this matter was being very care
fully watched by the insurance companies.
