LONDON, Jan. 29.--The Times will pub fish tomorrow from it's Shanghai corre- spondent: The Chinese military and naval commanders telegraph via Chee Foo that the Japanese fleet advanced from Wei Hai- Wei in two divisions of nineteen ships early in the morning of the 26th. Their search-lights betrayed their presence. The guns of the Chinese fleet and shore bat teries opened fire when the first di- vision was within 1000 yards oi the Chinese fleet. The fastest CL nese warships and torpedo boats dashed against the enemy and drove them of after heavy firing. The first Japanese division sailed to the northwest and the second division to the south. The Chinese claim that they damaged several shipse The Japanese made simultaneous land attack from Ninghai. This was a surprise, but the Chinese repelled them. The Chinese lost twenty.seven sailors. On the Japanese side more than 300 were killed or wounded. It is stated that several for eigners are assisting the Chinese.

Pure FOods

Butterine is a much abused product. As a matter of fact it is pure,-sweet, wholesome, and infinitely preferable to ordinary country butter. A special correspondent of this paper recently visited the factory owned and operated by the Armour Packing Co.,, of Kansas City, manufacturers of the widely ad' vertised Silver Churn Butterine. A five story building is perfectly fitted for the scien tiic preparation of this food product. Everything is spotlessly clean; all appliances are the latest and most improved, and every precaution is taken to secure the production ofsan absolutely pure and wholesome food. All processes are under the direction of a foreign chemist who has made the skiliful combination of pure sweet fats the study of his life.
 Prof. Charles Chandler, of New York City, says: ''The product is palatable and wholesome and I regard it as most valuable article of food"
 Prof. J. s. w. Arnold, Medical De- partment, University of New York, says: "A blessing for the poor, and in every way perfectly pure, wholesome and palatable article of food"

Indian Caroline Dead.

The Indian Caroline, who for many
years has been well known character
around The Dalles, died last night in the
city jail. There was suspicion that
she may have been poisoned. The
woman was found by Policeman Con-
nelley and Billy Moabus by The Dalles
LAUNDERING Company's store. She was
suffering great agony and soon went into
violent spasms. DIR. Eshelman was
called and administered medicine, but
the woman was passed earthly aid and
died almost Immediately after being con-
veyed to the city Jail.
There is a suspicion that she may
have been poisoned and there is some
testimony tending to this view. But
after sitting the evidence the coroner's
jury did not consider it sufficient to
bring in verdict of death other than
from natural causes. The inquest was
held this morning In Michell's under
taking parlors and conducted by Coroner
Butts. F. D. Hill, F. A. Phelps, j. F.
Root, Hugh Chrisman, M. Herrick and
S. B. Adams served as the jury. Frank
Connolly, DIR. Eshelman, Lonn Stevens,
VIM. Moabus, j. Foster and F. N. Hill
were examined as witnesses.

No FARM RECEIVERS.

The decision of Judge Bellinger rs u
son vs. Shurley, followed to its logical
conclusions is of the greatest interest to
all farmers who have borrowed money of
loaning companies and given mortgages
to secure the loan in which there is a
provision that in case of foreclosure pro-
ceedings the mortgage may have re-
ceiver to take and dispose of growing
crops and apply the proceeds upon the
mortgage.
The decision itself is simply to the et-
feet that the receiver in that particular
case was not entitled to compensation
for his services but it is based upon the
ground that the provision IN such mort
cages Is inequitable. Assuming that
farmers make mortgages hurriedly and
frequently without reading them over,
or that they make mortgages under cir
eumstances such that it is absolutely
Imperative that they obtain the loan,
this decision is justice. It may be wise
and just under any assumption; but is
there not something to be said on the
QUeSIlO0I rdTm6E5 are OEOlndTlly pOb-
eessed of the intelligence of average
men; the making of. a mortgage upon
their farm is usually very deliberate
transaction entered into after careful
consideration, and, in the case of loan
ing companies, are usually made to pro-
cure money to make improvements or
enlarge their business; they usually
have it in their power to make the ma
thrifty of the loan come at a convenient
season of the year; they make the
agreement willingly; the mortgage COM
pany relies upon the agreement in part
ing with their cash. For the court to
say that under these circumstances the
contract shall be wiped out would strike
a man who had loaned his money on
that kind of a mortgage as an injustice.
That the decision, if followed, is a
great benefit to farmers, there is no
question; it will benefit them in two
ways, viz, it will relieve those who have
made such mortgages from applying
their crop upon that particular debt
and it will prevent, in many cases, those
who want to borrow, from getting
money. Both results win be only bene-
fetal in the long run.

THE. INDIAN WAR.

With all the uproar and excitement
concerning the latest Indian raid, there
has not yet been printed one report OF
the violation of the law which called for
the great expense on the part of the
United States. That there are some
renegade Indians travelling about the
section of country referred to az Jack
sons Hole, there is no question, and
wisdom called for the dispatch of troop
of soldiers; but single company of U.
S. cavalry would have served the pur-
pose and brought to terms the few In
dians now there, who seem to be dis
posed to go on excursion on their own
hook. Every report of massacres and
Outlawery has been the merest rumor-a

ought to ascertain something of facts be-
fore creating such turmoil.

make anything by remaining at
your business throughout these hot
summer weeks, instead of dropping
work for a few days and hieing
yourself away to the country where
nature makes every effort at this
season to comfort and uplift tired
and broken down man. The man
who stays at his desk the entire
summer through, lest he miss the
opportunities that might arise dur
ing his absence, is losing in com
parison to the one who is now away
in the mountains, or at the sea-
shore, mending his shattered nerves
and braciug up for the work he
will have when his vacation is over.
And when he comes home the
speed at which he can go will
enable him to easily outstrip the

Why was not the Teachers Insti.
tute held outside the county this
year? Why are the teachers of
Hannah, Clendenin, Arbuckle and
Union districts compelled to go
twenty to fifty miles to attend an
Institute which should be at Point
Pleasant, for several reasons? Is it
because the teachers of those dis
tricts are paid too much salary and
must be forced to pay out some oft
to the railroads and steamboats,?
Why are there not roads to the
waters edge every two or three
miles along the Kanawha and Ohio
rivers2 Certainly these waters be-
long to the public and not to private
land owners whose farms border on
them.
Why Is it that farmers organize
bands to exterminate wolves in their
neighborhood, in order to protect
their sheep while the people of our
little towus allow the saloon wolves
to roam at large when thousands of
their household lambs are being de-
voured by them, not only body but
soul? Why is it that good people,
aye and christian, too, are afraid TO
denounce crime, for fear of losing
the saloon vote? Why will they
compromise with sin, "because they
fear the Jews?"
Why will our government, which
boasts of its being a morality loving
government, license crime and
make itself partner with the Grim
inal by accepting money from the
saloon traffic?
Why don't the people of Point
Pleasant, have local option, prohibi-

Col. W. 2. Thompson, the mill

looking. over the mining and mill
ing situation. Col. Thompson in an

any string to that declaration. ~
am, said he, "a thorough believer
in the doctrine of bimetallism. 1t
is the most benifcent monetary re-
form which has ever been proposed,
and the world cannot too soon get
on a bimetallic basis. I believe the
United States is strong enough and
rich enough to take the initial step
in the matter of silver, and that
free coinage could be adopted with
out any danger whatever. 1 be-
lieve that if the United States
would but give silver coinage trial
it would be found that few if any of
the evils which are predicted would
occur. AS a matter of fact the ma
tions that are now on a strictly sill
yer basis are the most prosperous
in the world. The world must use
silver as a money metal, that is a
fundamental proposition from which
there is absolutely no escape.
