New York, May IA cablegraln
received to-day from London says
Russia's increasing embarrassment in
the far east has stimulated sharply
the activities Of the revolutionary
spirits at home. Advices from the
great commercial towns agree in en-
phasizing the danger Of a grave in
ternal disorder if the Developments OF
the war continue disastrous.
A Moscow correspondent hears that
the authorities in the southwestern
provinces are at their wits end to dis
tract the attention Of the artisans and
peasants from the collapse of the
Russian military bubble in centers
where friends Of free Russia" carry
on their campaign.
Leaflets are distributed secretly
showing the folly of being loyal to a
system that has broken down be-
cause of beaureaucratic corruption.
The masses are kept informed of what
is going on at the front and the "ex-
plantations of st. Petersburg are tax
en- at their true value.
Patriotism says a Kieff corre-
-spondent lis dead and the triumpLs of
Japan are hailed with delight by men
whose motto is down with beaureau-
cracy.'"
Fear Yellow Peril.
There is high authority for the
statement that the London and Paris
governments are bringing extraordi-
nary pressure to bear upon Picking to
prevent any breach Of neutrality in
behalf Of Japan.
NJ. Delcasse. when explaining to st.
Petersburg the conditions OF the
Anglo-French entente, pointed out that
so far from being anti-Russian, it
probably would prove the only eff:
fective check upon the tendencies OF
the Asiatic races to unite against
Russia.
According to a British foreign Of
flee functionary Count Lamsdorf was
informed by the French minister that
he had Lord Lansdowen's express
promise to employ all the resources
of British diplomacy with the Chinese
imperial government whose authority
| weak as it may be in the provinces
remote from Peking-is not deposed
in eastern Manchuria. Whether the
combined pressure will prevail is in
ldoubt.
Mukden Japs' Objective.
Mukden, the ancient Manchurian
icapitaL is obviously the objective Of
| the Japanese. No one could have
foreseen the celebrity and skill Of
their advance. Even were the
verses, the deeds already done have
set oriental imagination af1ame and
the capture of Mukden would be the
ruin of Muscovite prestige in Asia.
AS that result seems likely to occur,
the London and Paris governments
are nervously feeling the pulse Of
Picking.
| Another dispatch from London says
that at Warsaw serious disturbances
resulted in the death of high Off
cial. News Of disorders is vigorously
suppressed in st. Petersburg and Mos
COW.
| Mobiles Of the highest rank have
been caught misappropfiating the
Red Cross funds. No volunteers are
tionary agents are active, particular
| ly among the Films and Poles, and
the defeat of Kuropatkin may be the
signal for dangerous outbreak in
both sections of the empire.

New York Sun Special Service.
London, May 14.-There is a dispo-
sition here to consider that General
Kuropatkin is between the devil and
the deep sea. All the news to hand
with regard to the movements of the
japanese forces is interpreted to
mean that their present plan Of cam
patgn is to outfank the Russian gem
eral on both right and left, and not
merely to attack and defeat him, but
to destroy or capture his army.

The International
Swinging Hay Stacker
may be transported
from field to field
without being taken
apart.
The platform is always
elevated perfectly level.
In operation the ordinary
hay stacker, much incon-
venience is experienced
when the horse is forced
to back fifty feet in bring
ing the pitcher head or
platform to receiving po-
sition ogain. This antiq-
uated method is fully
overcome in the interna-
tional by attaching a band
brake to pulley around
which the raising and
lowering rope passes so
that the operator may lower
the pitcher head at any
speed he desires or stop it
instantly anywhere in its
descent. 1t will be readily
seen that this relieves the
horse from unnecessary
work is a much quicker
method of operating.

There are few people who fully

who give any expression of ap.

or for tho community in gen.
eral way In Gace, the instances
es are so rare in which they re-
ceive any thanks for the kind
words fhey have to say abou.
anything or anybody that il is
regarded in newspaper circles as
matter worthy Of counmont.
In newspaper experience of
thirteen yonrs, covering the very
best years Of our life, which
have been spent in an earnest
endeavor to advance our town
and every worthy interest in it,
as circumstances have shown,
without proper moral or fngn-
cial suppor5 and against most
adverse circumstances, we do
not remember thas those in
whose interest this has been
most largely done have ever
given w2r& of commcndation
or encouragement. But when,
in the advocacy of measures for
the public good, our views have
conllicted with their personal
ideas or peeunihry ends we could
always hear OF tho expressions
OF disapproval and the efforts to
discount the value and influence
of what we were trying to urge
in their interest. We take it|
that this is the experience &C all
newspapers. The exception
would be rarity.
Very few people ever stop
to consider the value of q news

ly to the individuals OF the town.
What would your town be with.
out @ paper? Are you doing
anything to help support your
home paper? What agency does
moro to unite tho public mind
on any undertaking? Where is
the individual who gives more
thought to public improvements,
and who does more TO ENCOURAGE
them than the editor of your
town paper? By whom is your
name brought before the people
more publicly and in O kindlier
manner? Who says more nice
and commendable things about
you and leaves out things not so
pleasant? And what do you do
in return thank him for it?
No, not much. You may think
you ought to do it and that he
deserves it, and it might en-
courage him, but the words are
never spoken, they die ia the
thought. But the editor plods
along with cheerfulness in
adVersity that would DO credit
to the spirit of martyr, zeal.

GOOD PROSPECT FOR SUCCESS

The chances for democratic success
in November appear to brighten daily
as She party leaders wage the campaign
against the party of RooseYeltian
rottennegs and official corruption. The
democratic party is together this year
They are together as they ought to
have been together in 1896 and 1900.
But why refer to the past? Those
who helped to elect Roosevelt by
abuse of Bryan and either lethargy or
by boiling directly to the republican
party made mistake, and they know
it If they had it to do over again
they wouldn't do it. They would do
as Bryan and the regular democrats
are doing, support the ticket and
make assurance doubly sure of demo-
cratic success and a white mans adj
ministration. The loyalty of the
Bryan forces to the ticket is sufficient
rebuke to those who made republican
success possible IN the last two cam
paigns. We appreciate their loyalty
now. We congratulate the party that it
is once again reunited, and that party
succass IL one Of the DossibIIitIes If
not certaint1es, of such reunion of
democratic forces

FIGHTS BATTLE OF THE WORLD

During the past day or two there
has been little in the way of news from
the seat of war, both armies resting
after the giant struggle at Laio Yang
a few days since. Americans, and es-
pecIally we of the South, deeply
sympathize with Japan in her fight
tor home, country and national exis-
tence, and wish her every success
against the Russian hordes who would
wipe the little Island kingdom from
the map is they could. Japanefe
thought and action is becoming m IRE
liberal and more tolerant of the rights
of the civilized world all the time.
Not so with Russia. Minor reforms
have been instituted by the present
Gar, but they are of little real value.
Russia's treatment of the Jews, of
other of her subjects, of the Firms and
the Poles has excited the resentment
of liberty loving Americans every
where, and they would hail Japan
csc victory. In this war Japan is fgh-
ing not only her own battle for exis-
tence but The battle OF the word for
the open commercial door in Cuin8,
Japan rightfully won Port Arthur in
the war with China, but the Powers
deprived her of the fruits of her vic
tory. Then Russia, by tricky di-
pIomacy on the one hand and by
coercion on the other, seized Man
churia and Port Arthur. She promis-
ed that at stated time she would re-
move her troops from the peninsula.
She broke her promise, fagrantly,
deliberately. Japan has always
smarted under the wrongs inflicted by
The allied powers; she has chafed al
he arrogance and greed of Slav
Patriotic to the last degree, she sub
mltted her cause to the arbitration O.
the sword, and so far victory has come
to her Iegions. When her heroic
soldiers have driven the last Russian
soldier out Of Manchuria she vii
then, in all probability, submit to term
of peace. but not before.
