Progress of the War.

While European diplomats are still
limiting that the powers will intervene
and end the war. Russia is negotiating
for a $50. 900, 900 loan in Paris and
Japan will float loan of $50, 200, 900,
one-half in New York and the other half
in London. Japan has established the
most complete censorship of news from
Korea ever known and even private let
tiers sent by the foreigners home are read
by three different censors. But war news
continues to come from other sources
and it now turns out that the Russians
Gen. Kuroki pushed his victory and on
May 6 captured without opposition the
Manchurian city of Feng- Wang Cheng.
The Japanese have surrounded Port
Arthur by land and sea and this great
fortress has been abandoned to its fate.
Viceroy Alexieff was slightly wounded in
escaping from Port Arthur and the last
train out was fired on by japanese
troops and several Chinese wounded.
The Russian general staff have moved
from Lao Yang farther north to Monk
den. The Japanese forces are crowd1ng
north and it is believed that the Russians
have decided to evacuate New Chang as
they have not forces enough to with
stand the japanese advance. The Japan
csc celebrated their victories at Tokyo,
Monday. and during the festivities 81
were killed and 40 injured by being
crushed in gate. The Russians are not
in mood for celebrating, but the arrival
in St. Petersburg of the remnant
of the crews of the Russian war
Sh,1c cu.,I at Chem ,1po harh0r in the
first days OF the war was the occasion OF
great demonstration. Grand Duke
Cyril, the Cars cousin, has returned to
St. Petersburg and announces that he
will return to the far East with the
Russian Baltic squadron. The Paris
Journal reports that the recall of Viceroy
Alexief is only a question of time and
that he will be succeeded by the Cars
cousin, Crank Duke Nicolaievitcb.

Our County's First Senator.

Caledonia county is fortunate in hav-
ing as it's republican candidate for first
senator so worthy a man as Leighton P.
Slack of St. Johnsbury, and no extended
biography of him is necessary, as he is
well and favorably known throughout
the county. He was admitted to the
Vermont bar in 1892 from Washington
county, and after practicing law for
nearly three years in Barre came to St.
Johnsbury and entered into partnership
with Alexander Dunnett. From 1898 to
1900 he was states attorney, filling that
office with signal ability and enforcing
the laws that existed on the statute
book. He has also been attorney of the
town of St. Johnsbury for the past five
years. The fact that no one else in St.
Johnsbury will be candidate in the
county convention against him is in it.
self a compliment to his ability and
strength, and if he is chosen a member of
the senate of 1904 he will become one of
it's leading and most useful members.

Still Refuses the Crown.

The state press are still at sea over the
persistent refusal of our honored town
man. Alexander Dunnett, to accept pub
lie office and the Barre Times thus com
ments on his latest declination:
"Alex. Dunnett of St. Johnsbury has
again refused the crown. When
approached on the question of accepting
the state supreme court judgeship to be
resigned by Judge Stafford, he replied
that he would not take it. Twice has
he turned his petitioners from him, but
it is said in secret that he would accept
the next one, provided it be that held
now by Judge Hoyt Fl. Wheeler of the
United Slater circuit and district bench. u
The CALIFORNIAN does not know any
of Mr.. Dunnett's secrets and he has
given excellent reasons for refusing both
to be a candidate for governor and
judge. But here are crowns and crowns
and if in the course of time the people
should ask him to represent them il
Congress the crown would hardly b,
refus ed.

Yes, this is presidential year and we

a man that is universally liked, one who

Martin, Stanton or DeBoer do this any
better than Bell? / don't think so.
Neither does any other sober minded
man think so.
c. J. Bell of Walden has been before the
public good many years in different
capacities and he wears the same size hat
now that he wore IS years ago, and his
work has been all right.

that he was member of a few years ago
did more to bring about reform in some
needed things than has been done before

will not be ashamed of. Voters, you will
never regret your action.

PRESS COMMENT.
The Japanese Invasion of Russi a

This undoubted victory, won, as in
Dictated, by virtue of the scientific pre-
paration of the Islanders. is, however,
hardly more than the opening of the
campaign. The hard fighting is yet to
come. Every foot the Japanese push
by extending the line of communica ton
of the invaders, and increasing the dis
astrous possibilities of a defeat. The
preparedness of the Japanese has been the
wonder of the world, but there is limit
to foresight, and the further into Manchu-
ria the Japanese go the nearer they come
to the point where the need of the hour
and not the worked out plan must deter
mine the course of action. Japan is
practically invading Russia now, as far as
the war problem goes. History records
several invasions of Russia, but no
successful one. Japan, the old-new
nation, has broken many presidents.
Will she break another when she meets
the armies Russia has been massing for
this emergency?-[NewY York American.
A Possible Result of lhe Japanese
Victory.
The most serious immediate result of
this fighting is likely to be the impress
sion that it is so well adapted to produce
throughout Asia that the Japanese are
superior to the Russians and will defeat
them in the end. This impression the
Russian General Staff admits to be
natural by the very pains it takes in the
effort to dispel it. The effort will fail.
The belief will spread. The spread of it
throughout the three millions of Man
churia alone will be equivalent to rein
| forcement OF the Japanese army by many
| thousand men. Russia has ruled the
| province through the provincial belief in
Russian invincibility. When this belief
| is broken the Manchurian rising will be
apt to amount at least to a constant
| threat against the slender line of Russian
communication, a threat which will neu-
tralize the strength of many thousands
| of Russians who might otherwise be
spared for the front.-[New York Times.
Making up for Lost Time.
Vermont has been slow about recog-
| nizing the advantage of good roads.
But the present suggestion to make a
| 81, 100000 bond issue by the state for
the purpose of building 500 miles of high
way, running the entire length of the
state and through every shire town, in
| dicates that the matter has been taken
seriously. This would make up for lost
time.-[ Boston Record.

An Advertising Thought.

There is only one way to advertise,
and that is to hammer your name, your
location, your business, so constantly, so
persistently, so thoroughly into the
peoples heads that if they walked in
their sleep they would constantly turn
their faces toward your store. The
newspaper is your best friend in spite OF
criticism. It helps to build up the COM
munity that supports you. When the
day comes that the newspapers are dead
the people are on the edge of the grave,
with no one to write their epitaph-

MIR. DeBOer and His Letter.
There is not the slightest reason to be-
lieve that Mr.. DeBoer will consent to
accept the nomination. His letter of last
December gave no encouragement,
and he has said nothing since that time
to indicate that he had changed his
mind. Indeed, he is not the kind of a
man to change his mind easily after he
has reached a carefully matured conclu-
sion, much less to do it that he may be
used as cats paw by the Clement men
to pull their chestnuts out of the fire.
