that locates in a town adds to the
prosperity and business possibilities
of every dealer in the place, and
every citizen who has his own good

Every Town Should Advertise

One of the first requisites of q
good business man, in this age Of
mercantile activity, is that he should
understand the art of advertising.
The same rules that govern private
concerns should govern the business
affairs of cities. Every scivilized
town that has industrial aspirations
and hopes to grow and prosper,
must needs let the world know what
it has to offer by way of inducements.
Manufacturing enterprises, educa-
tional institutions, business and
professional men are ever seeking
desirable locations, and it is notice.
able fact that comparatively few
cities and towns are attracting them.
This is because many towns which
possess good water-power, good
shipping facilities, good school and
residential advantages, lack the life
and enterprise to let the world know
what they possess. They do not
grow because they are unknown.
They are like the drowsy merchant
who doesn't think it worth while to
advertise, but prefers to sit and
watch the spiders spin webs across

It lis taken here that there will soon be news of importance from Port Arthur since the Japanese throughout the war seemed to alternate their attentions De- tween the beleagured fortress and the Russian army toward the north. It ap- pears that it is now Port Arthur's turn to keep up the excitement while Field Marshal Oyama is preparing for the fall campaign.

HIGGINS NOMINATED FOR GoV-

Whole Ticket Receives Unanimous En-
 dorsement-WoodruR Withdraws at

 prise-Ticket as Forecasted.
 Saratoga. N. Y. Sept. 15.-The repub- lican state convention adjourned at 2:So p. m. to-day after nominating unani- mously the ticket for state officers fore casted last night by The Associated Press as follows:
 For governor, Frank W. Higgins of Cattaraugus; for lieutenant governor, Lynn Bruce of New York; for secretary of state, John F. o'Brien of Clinton. for attorney general, Julius N. Mayer of New York; for comptroller, Otto Kel- sey of Livingston; for state treasurer, John c. Wallenmaier of Erie; for state engineer and surveyor, Henry A. Van Alstyne of Columbia; for chief judge of the court of appeals, Edgar M. Cullen (democrat) of Kings; for associate judge of the court of appeals. William E. Werner Republican, of Monroe. The unanimous action in the na''1i,soo l tion of Lieutenant Governor Frank W. Higgins for the goyernorship was made possible by the withdrawal of former Lieutenant Governor Timothy Wood ruff from the race at the very last mo- ment when the convention was prepar- ling for the roll call of individual dele gates as called for in the resolution in troduced in the interest of MT. Wood ruff's candidacy and at the demand of the Kings county delegates. It was only when, as he said, it became evident to \ his practiced ear,' that the convention was almost solidly against hi; after his { name had been placed in nomination in a speech by William A. Prendergast of Brooklyn in which the management of I the Higgins campaign was bitterly at tackled, that MT. Woodruff took the I platform, withdrew his name from flir- nomination of Lieutenant Governor fI t1lERlIS De Y made W ulHIllIllOuS,% anu pledged the full effort of himself and This Kings county forces in aid of the ticket about to be nominated There was no contest whatever over any other place upon the ticket,
 I Up to the very moment when the chairman of the convention, State Sem ator George B. Maltby, announced the Icall of the roll Of individual delegates, lit was expected by the vast majority lof the. convention that there would be ,la definite alignment and individual [count of the forces behind Higgins and
 Woodruff and the recognized import ance of the bearing of the result upon
 the entire state organization produced
 a feeling of intense interest on the part of everyone present. If any one outside
 of MT. Woodruff's immediate circle of personal confidants knew what the was
 about to do, they kept the secret well
 and to nearly every person in the con Ivention it was complete and dramatic
 surprise.

Militia on Hand 70 Prevent Delivery Of
 Lynchers.
 Huntsville Ala, September 15.-The Madison county jail is guarded tonight by two militia companies because threats have been made that parties indicted by the grand jury in connec- tion with the lynching of Horace Map les and placed in jail would be taken out by their friends. Ben Hill, one of the alleged lynchers, was placed in jail today and the officers are looking for nine others who have been indicted Judge Speake, of the circuit court, heard rumors of impending trouble and wired Governor Cunningham for the militia. The troops reached here on a special train late this afternoon and pickets guard all approaches to the jail No trouble is anticipated as long as the jail is guarded in this manner, Captain Brown, commander of the troops, has orders to preserve the peace of the community even if the city be placed under martial law. He has camp equipment and is fixed for long stay. Solicitor Peters denies the rumor that Sheriff Rogers and Mayor Smith have been indicted. The only founda- ton for this report is the fact that the grand jury has asked Instructions how to proceed to bring about the in1- peachment of these officers if such &C., tion should be deemed advisable.

SHIFT OF WIND SAVES BURNING OF HALIFAX
.oIrY SUFFERS 4 HALF MILLION
 DOLLAR Loss.


 Fire Sweeps BusineSs Part of the Water
 Front--stayed by the DynamitIng of
 Dozen Buildings by sailors from
 the Fleet and Soldiers from the Car
 rIsOn-Burned District Covers I've
 Acres--YOung Woman Killed.
 Halifax. N. S.. Sept 15.-A fortunate shift of wind undoubtedly saved Hali. fax from disastrous conhagration to- day, but. nevertheless. the city suf- fered loss of half million dollars from g fire which swept the business part of the water front, and whose progress was only stayed by the dyna< hitting of a dozen buildings by the sailors srom the fleet and the soldiers from the garrison.
 Between and 4 o'clock this after noon, when the fire was at It's height and fearful southerly gale was push< ing it straight toward the heart of tha business center, consternation reigned throughout the entire city. It seemed almost providential when shortly aftel 4 o'clock the wiwnd suddenly veered to the west and turned the flames along the wharves and warehouses.
 There the fire ragged on lower Water street practically beyond control until ' o'clock tonight, when 200 sailors with torpedo apparatus landed from H. M. s. Ariadne and Indefatigable, and with the assistance of 200 troops from the garrison checked further progress by removing, with the aid of dynamite, a dozen of small buildings.
 The fire consumed six wharves. two coal piers, two hotels, dozen large warehouses and a number of retail shops. The loss of half a million is covered by two hundred thousand dol- lars Of insurance. During the fire a large tree fell, killing Flora Ring. 2S years, and wounding two others. The entire city department was engaged at | the fire.
 Admiral Sir Archibald Douglas per- sonally directed the sailors in protect ing imperial property. and 200 marines patrolled the streets
 One fireman was fatally injured by a live wire, while another was badly hurt by falling slate.
 The burned district, which covered about two acres. was one of wooden buildings three and four stories high. many of them built years ago when Halifax merchants dealt heavily in fish.
 The fire started about 8 o'clock this Iafternoon in a building between Water Istreet and the harbor at the entrance of the wharves of N. & M. Smith. A terrific gale was blowing at the time from the southeast and within few minutes the buildings on both sides of 1.-the street, all well saturaed with fish loiI, were soon burning fiercely.

 Denver, Sept. 15.--Williarn J. Bryan opened the democratic campaign in Col orado with q speech at Coliseum hall tonight MT. Bryan dwelt at length upon what he termed the policy of mill itarism of the republican party which he declared was not influenced alone by inperialism for he maintained that the strengthening of the army was as much for the purpose of aiding capital in enforcing it's demands against labor as anything else. He characterized President Roosevelt as a dangerous man because of his love for power and warlike demonstrations, and unsuited to be at the head of a nation that want ed to be great in moral force and not physical force.

 The Kommander islands are the is Hands for whose protection against these very expeditions arrangements were made by Russia with Great Brit ain and the United States. It is not sup posed that the affair will lead to dip lomatic incident.
