MARCHING ON TIE PASS.

A large Japanese force is now
marching direct on Tie Pass, north
Of Mukden, on the Lao River, by a
road from Tsian-Chan, which passes
100 miles east of Mukden.
When this fresh turning movement
is sufficiently advanced a general
movement against the Russian forces
is anticipated. 1t is reported that the
japanese efforts are being somewhat
retarded by disease.
Da Pass is necessary for the com
plete success Of the move, and it is
stated that the Mikado's men have
not yet penetrated this defle. These
facts, however, while more or less A
hindrance to the japanese full ad-
vance, are not expected to retard the
first stages of the battle.

Benefits of the Service.

Much has been said as to the benefit
of rural free delivery to the farmer and
much more could be written. Speaking
on this subject, Representative Arthur
l.. Bates. Of Pennsylvania, said in the
House on March 10. 1904:
1t Is my belief the $2l, 900, 900 appropriate
ed in this behalf brings more direct benefit
to the inhabitants of this Republic whom
1t affects than almost any other appropria-
ton made by the general government.
Forty years ago everyone went or sent
to the postotfice for his mail. and the farm
err In the busy season, when his horses and
teams were working In the fields. could
sometimes only receive mail for himself
and family possibly once week-on Sat
urday afternoon Now it is not only de-
livered several times daily at the homes
and places of business of the Inhabitants
Of more than thousand cities, but for the
last six months Of the fiscal year Danuary
l to June 30, 1909 there were delivered
by the carriers of this service some 31O,-
100000 pieces of mail on rural routes
throughout the United States to farmers
and inhabitants Of sparsely settled regions
Increased facilities always bring increas-
ed use and enjoyment-more letters are
written and received. more newspaper and
magazines are subscribed for. While It IL
not true in every part of the country, yet
the official report shows that quite num-
Der Of rural routes already pay for them
selves by the additional revenues they oc-
caSion.
The testimony adduced from all over the
country proves that by reason of rural free
delivery the actual valve If our farm lands
has been increased. Many farmers state
that they would not dispense with the sery-
ice for $50 or even 500 per annum. 1t
has been estimated that the value of farm
lands has risen by this means as high as
So per acre in several States. A moderate
benefit to the farm lands Of the whole
country would be from 81 to SO per acre
The producers, being brought into daily
touch with the state of the markets, and
In better communication with those who
buy their products, are able to obtain bet
ter prices for all that the farm produces.
More definite knowledge OF trade conditions
Is always OF great advantage.
Good roads have been built and induced
as an incentive for rural free delivery estab-
lishment and to better encourage their
maintenance.

DO NOT WANT A CHAN &c.
People Are willing to Continue the
Present Ad III in istration.

The constitution of the United States
requires an election for President ana
Vice President every four years. The
provision is mandatory and cannot he
escaped Under it the people are called
upon to vote for President and Vice
President every fourth year without re-
gard to politics. the record, or the work
of the administration in power. The cleo
ton must be held whether a change IS
desirable or not.
There is reason to believe that large
majority of the American people do not
desire Il change in the national admins
tration at the present time, and that II
it were matter of choice with them no
election would be held this year. A ma
tional election always interferes with
business more or less. and as the business
of the country grows the feeling increases
that, in the absence of any reason for
a change. II presidential election is dis
turbng factor that might well be dis
pensed with if the constitution permit
ted That is the situation ut present.
The great mass of the people are so
well satisfied with the present admins
tration that they do not desire change,
and if the constitution did not require an
election to be held they would regard it
as unnecessary.
Who wants change? Not the farm
ers, for they never were more prosper
Gus or better satisfied than they are at
present Not the business men, for bust
ness is satisfactory. Not manufacturers,
for American manufacturers are outstrip-
ping those of all other countries. Not
wage-earners. for there are more men
employed at good wages to-day than ever
before in the history Of the country. Not
railroad men, for the transportation BUSH
ness has grown enormously during the
last few years and still gives promise of
future growth. In short, no large class
of oul varied popula ton can be named
but has good reason to desire a con-
tinuance of present conditions. If it
We're not for the constitutional require
mert the people would have preferred
that no election took place this year.
The only exceptions are the Democrat
ic party leaders and those unfortunate
people who have not the sense to let
we'll enough alone.

The country has outgrown the witch
craft frenzy, the spirit-rapping frauds,
the blue-glass cure, the greenback and
free silver crazes, and it is rapidly re-
covering from other more or less harmful
fads. These forms of popular enthusi-
asm having had violent and almost un-

certain acute diseases, made their run,

conveniencing even that few, stays longer
with US than any of his wild-eyed and

create an empire, and was roundly abus-

ambition. He was described as a men,

groundless cry has been raised.
