tenant Chas. p. Faulkner, of the
Eighth Infantry, indorsing his ac-
ton 'for the good of the service"

funds belonging to enlisted men
and also with being short in his &C
counts. The money losses were
made good by the young mans
father, ex-senator Faulkner, of West

There is more trouble over the
race question in the South for the
Postoffice Department, and pros.
poets for more Grace Suicide"
The Postoffice Department was no.
tilted officially last week that John
c. Allgood, a colored rural free de-
livery letter carrier, while making
his regular trip near Gallatin, Tenn,
was stopped by men armed and
masked, and that he and his colored
substitute carrier were warned not
to continue in the service under pen
atty of death. Postmaster General
Payne has suspended service on the
route pending investigation, and if
the reports of the affair are con
firmed summary action will follow.
The incident may become a second
Indianola case. The people of the
South are almost as much opposed
to the negroes handling their mails
as their females.

The M & X has made the Deck
ers creek valley great place for
business. In the next few years it
will become even better than it is
now. Many more plants will come
into it to take the place of the will
derness which was to be seen before
the railroad was built. Masontown
stands at one end of this road Id
will always be good town. There
is to be chance afforded investors
to get some real estate at their own
prices on May 20. There will be a
lot sale conducted by the Morgan
town Real Estate company at Ma
sontown on that date. The public
may put their own pricees on the
lots and they will be certain OF
reaping rich harvest.

The papers report that the Ex-
press Companies have passed an
order refusing to handle any more
wine, beer or liquor, and the boys
will have to get it by freight here
after which will be a very slow
process when a fellow is dry or
been snake-bit or all ready to go
fishing. We take it however that
the order only refers to c. o. d.
shipments as they could not refuse
to carry such goods otherwise,
under their charter as a common
carrier.

The Baltimore and Ohio railroad
this week fled in the County Clerks
Office here some very elaborate
maps and blue prints of surveys
and grades of a new railroad in this
county, running from the .Hardman's
Switch connection around through
the Three Fork Coal Fields, a dis
lance of about eleven miles, as near
as can be estimated from the papers
in the case. The papers were filed
by the Company Attorney for this
county, Hon. w. G.. Conley, and
the prospect is that the work of
building this road will begin at an
early date and open up a magnificent
coal field of several thousand acres.

THE ROMAN LETTER IN JAPAN.

After simplifying the language, and at the same time making it more plas- tic and more pliant, this great reform will restore it as a new gift and inspi- ration to the rejuvenated minds and hearts of Japan What may not this exquisitely poetic. imaginative and alert race fashion cut of such splendid material as thL.r strong and beautiful language and their marvellous, artistic temperament? We may justly expect the dawning and early day of a mag nificent literature in Japan. Alphonse Daudet once said. in speaking of Fur gueneff: What luxury it must be to have a great, big, untrOdden, barbaric language to wade intel" The Japanese is a great, big, untrodden,' though not entirely "barbaric," language. It is essentially fresh. as fresh as Greek in the time of homer as Italian in the time of Dante, as English in the time of Shakespeare; and it's singers under the new inspiration will soon show that, like Marlowe. they have in them those brave and sublunary things tnat the first poets had"
 To the outside world the reform will mean the real opening of Japan. Ja- pan will lose much of it's mystery and charm, but it will sadd much to it's prosperity and advance its civiliza- tion Where one foreigner now stam- mers or halts il his efforts to speak or read Japanese. thousand will soon read and speak it with ease Travel CTS, traders and investors will hasten to explore a new and profitable field. and the daily press of Japan, intel ligible al last, will reveal the life and thought of the people. This fuller knowledge Of the Japanese life will serve to make the Japanese literature portion of the treasures of the edu- caticnal world. As the Renaissance

The Cement Question.

So far as the ranchers of the Salt River valley are concerned. they can view with entire complacency the rue tion which the cement manufacturers are kicking up at the department of the interior in Washington. It can be said with all safety that Secretary Hitch cock will be neither bluffed nor cajoled into paying more for cement than it is worth. with the cost of manufacture at the Tonto Basin dam site as thc meas ure of value.
 No matter what the outcome. the cost of the reservoir to the shareholders of the Water Users association will not be increased. The government knows pretty accurately what it vii cost to manufacture cement at the dam site It will be guided by that know ledge in dealing with the cement man ufacturers. Should they lower thsir figures so as to make it cheaper to buy of them than to build plant and man. Ufacture the product, tho saorltary will, of course, at the proper time, make a contract with the manufacturers.
 As indicated in our dispatches from Washington this morning, the matter will probably narrow to a question whether the government CT F.ivate par ties will do the manufacturing at the site If. as thought at the department, the manuta cturers reduce their figures to a point that may induce the secre- tary to ask for bids" it will mean. in all probability, the erection of a cement plant at the dam site by the successful bidders. If the engineers of the geo. logical survey are correct in saying that quality of cement can be manufactur- cd at the site which will be equal to the best Portland, the bidders would. of course, do their manufacturing there rather than on the Pacific coast; rrovid- ed. that the total cost of manufacture at the site did not exceed the cost of manufacturing on the coast and trans portatior to the site.
 In any event, Secret-cy Hitchcock will protect the interests of the valley. and the cement which goes into the dam will be furnished at rock bottom fgure:.
 The whole problem, apparently. is to determine whether the government Or private r2rties can do the manufactur- ing the most cheaply.
