Progress of the War.

Little reliable news comes from the
Eastern war this week. Marquis
Oyama is evidently feeling his way
toward the Russians at Nuke en-, but
apparently no determined advance
has yet been made. The Russians
await an approach from the japanese
up the south bank of the Hun river,
to the northeast of Mukden. II they
succeed in crossing this stream there
they will be in position to compel the
evacuation of the place. Both sides
are heavily reinforcing. 1t is now
predicted that the Russians will fight
hard to retain Mukden, both for the
political effect and because it will be
an advantage to them to spend the
winter there rather than have the
Japanese.
Two Large Trusts Ignore Labor Unions.
Two big trusts began war on union
labor last week. They are the Inter
national Harvester company, employ
ing II, 900 men, and the Pullman com
papy, employing 1000 men. On Sept.
10, the date when annual contracts
with union labor are renewed, all the
plants of the two trusts shut down.
The only explanation given was
needed repairs" Sept. 26 all the
plants again reopened with wages
and conditions distinctly unfavorabie
! to labor. The Pullman company
announced a reduction of from 10 to
20 per cent. in wages. The harvester
trust increased the hours from nine
TO ten for the same wages. A high
wire fence has been constructed
around the Pullman works, and
armed guards are stationed at the
gates. Almost all the men who were
locked out in all plants returned to
work and will await the actions
of their unions. General Manager O.
s. Funk of the Harvester company
said: eve have no fight on union
labor. The union men are the same
as any others to us. But hereafter
we will not enter into any agreement
with any union or make any con-
tracts with them. Hereafter we will
have no conferences with unions u
The Pullman company announces
that in the future it will ignore the
unions.

Put Yourself into Your WORK.

If you would have your work count
for something, put yourself into it; put
character, originality, individuality
into everything you do. Don't be
satisfied to be an automaton. Deter
mine that whatever you do in life
shall be part of yourself, and that it
shall be stamped with superiority
Remember that everything you do of
real value must nave the impress OF
yourself upon it, and let that be the
evidence of excellence and superior
ity. You will find that devotion to
your work will pay. Superiority OF
method, progressiveness and up-to-
dateness, leavened with your own in
diviouality,- are permanent Success.

The Rutland Ne1Us speaks as follows
of the result of the representative
election in the town o~Proctor:
esBy the way, when it comes to
unanimity Fletcher D. Proctor seems
to be it. His election to the house
of representatives in 1890 and 1900
was unanimous, but at the last cleo
ton there was one vote cast in his
town against him. Probably this
latter opposition is the result of in
7huences from outside the State which
promised to take hand in the cleo
tion.'"
1t will be recalled in this connec-
ton that all sorts of charges have
been circulated recently in relation
to the treatment accorded the en-
ployes of the Vermont Marble com
pany. The result to which the Rut
land Ne,rs refers is the most conclu
sive kind of answer that could bt
given to such charges. If the amoun
of dissatisfaction alleged had existed
among The employees of the Vernon
Marble company, of which Fletcher D
Proctor is president, it is inconceiv'
able that the secret ballot would no
have been used to demonstrate the
fact. The practical unanimity will
which Mr.. Proctor was elected rep
resentative should set at rest all tall
about rampant dissatisfaction among

BEWARE OF OINTMENTs FOR CATARRH
THAT CONTAIN MERCURY,

as mercury will surely destroy the sense OF
smell and completely derange the whole sys-
tenn when entering it through the mucous

except on prescriptions from reputable
physicians, as the damage they will do is zen
fold to the good you can possibly derive from
them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, o. contains no
mercury, and is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucuos surfaces

Big Blaze in Burlington.
Fire was discovered one morning
last week in the block on the corner
of Church and College streets, Bur-
lington, owned by F. II. Wells. Be-
fore it was extinguished, barber
shop had been Quilted, the hardware
stock of Hagar Brothers had been
greatly damaged by water and the
second floor of one section of the
block had been badly burned. Ex-
plosives of some kind, the exact ma
ture of which is unknown, caused a
series of explosions which tore out
one partition, blew glass out of every
window in the barber shop and threw
fremen from their feet. No one was
injured. That the entire block was
not destroyed is due to the efforts of
the fremen, who stood their ground
regardless of the explosions and
fought the flames until they were
subdued. The cause of the fire is I'M
known. Each property owner was
protected by insurance. The total
loss will be between $4,000 and SIC, 900.
