Famine Among the Natives of North

Famine Among the Natives of North
China Is Inevitable.
LONDON, Sept. 27.-A Reuter- dis
patch from Shanghai, dated Sept. 25,
says:
Advices from the best sources in the
North indicate that famine among
the natives is inevitable during the
coming winter. The usual rice sup
plies have not been shipped.
According to a Peking correspondent
of The Daily News, wiring Sept. l8,
the Anglo-American column under
General James H. Wilson, which went
westward from Peking Sept. 16 to cap
ture Tai Chau, started too early in con-
sequence Of a misunderstanding, got
into difficulties before the object had
been accomplished and had to ask for
reinforcements.

Officials Anxious to Get American Troops
Out OF China.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-It is believed
that General Chaffee, being at Tien
Tsin, has by this time received the in
structions cabled him relative to the
reduction of his force in China. If he
returns to Peking to execute the order
it will be Monday at least before he can
begin the movement toward Tien Tsin.
1t is thought here that with view to
preventing any possible misunderstand-
ing, he already has acquainted the mil
itary representatives Of the powers at
Tien Tsin of the projected withdrawal
of the American forces. This is deemed
more nee essary because of the possibil-
ity of the appearance Of Field Marshal
Won Waldersee at Taku or lien Tsin at
any moment. 1t is desirable that the
change of the status of the American
troops shall have taken place before he
appears on the scene The rapid trend
Of events in China toward actual and
formal war, which is regarded as GER
tain to follow a refusal on the part of
Germany and some of the other con-
tinental powers to enter into negotia-
tions for a settlement, is regarded here
as justifying the decision of the state
department to
Withdraw tho American Troops,
now that the purpose for which these
troops were sent into China has been
accomplished. The department has
held from the first that state of war
did not exist with the Chinese govern
ment and it secured the consent of
every one Of the powers to that propo-
sitlCn. It still does not believe there is
sufficient ground for changing that
position and refuses to be drawn into
war without such ground.
What effect, if any, a declaration of
war upon China by Germany alone or
in alliance with other powers would
have upon the negotiations which Mr..
Conger has in hand, can only be con-
jectured. Mr.. Conger was to arrange
the pl plliiminaries for meeting between
the representatives Of the powers and
China with view to effecting a har.
monious settlement. His action was
not to be mandatory in any sense upon
any power and each was free to reject
the good Office of the United States il
it saw fit. A failure of Mr.. Conger's
efforts would not, it it believed, in
volve much change in the American
programme. ,,'' ,:.-,

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale OF any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought OF
using anything else for indigestion
or biliousness. Doctors were very
scarce and seldom heard of appen-
dicitis, nervous prostration or heart
failure, etc. They used August
Flower to clean out the system and
stop fermentation Of undigested
food, regulate the action of the
liver, stimulate the nervous and or
ganic action of the system, and
that is all they took when feeling
dull and bad with headaches and
other aches. You only need few

Some OF our exchanges appear to have
the impression that Maine is not to
amount to great deal in her future
representation in Congress because she
has lost Reed and Dingley and. it is fear
ed, Boutelle OF the present generation of
her public men. But she has Hale and
Frye yet left in the Senate. If we bear
in mind what have been her resources in
times past, before Reed and Dingley came
into prominence, there should be hope for
the future. Maine bad in earlier genera

tnuous record Of this character in half a
century should not be despaired of as re-
CARDS their successors. Boston Herald.
The Herald is just right. Maine S
representation in Congress to- day is fully
up to her old time standard, and there
will be no lowering of that standard. All
that is lacking in the newer members is
the advancement and opportunity that
continued service brings. Congressman
Burleigh, it is safe to predict, will be
second to no one in influence on the floor
of the House. He is an untiring worker
and man who makes friends everywhere,
never enemies. Congressman Littlefield
is splenddly equipped by his abilities and
experience for the duties devolving upon
him, and is in every respect a worthy
successor of Congressman Dingley. Maine
is all right.
