BARON MuNcHAusEN

In the literature of our early days,
Sinbad, the sailor, and Baron Mum
ehausen, we're the leaders In the won
ders Of romance. We will leave the
sailor aud his yarns for the present.
Undoubtedly the Munchausen Of this
presidential campaign is that senator
inl Jack Frost, the vice presidential
candidate of the Republican ticket.
Indeed the Baron pales before hi
and his stories They are far ahead
OF anything that Swift ever wrote !;
aud then he tells them with such an
assured air, that if You did not know
Of him You might think ne really be-
leved them himself. He even de-
luded Senator McComas--with true
Senatorial courtesy-into introducing
him 10 Baltimore audience. 70
whom he romanced in a style which
left Gulliyer and his travels away in
the rear. He said the Baltimore fire,
with It's wide spread ruin and dis
aster. was a trifie in comparison with
the injury that the wicked Demo
cratic party had brought on that fair
city; it was their Sodom wickedness,
OF course, that caused that fearful
confagration, and then his audience
fairly howled with delight. He had
discovered for them exactly where
the blame for this disaster lay, and the
fate of the poor Democratic party
was sealed forever. What pity he
had not appeared in Baltimore on
That's February day. His chilling in
fluence might have been as effectual
in quenching the flames as was his
late effort. in reducing the big ma
jority which the city is going to pile
up for Parker and Davis and the Dem
ocratic candidates for Congress. His
name is Fairbanks. A slight alter
alton, and you have the name of
those financial institutions with
scripture sounding name-Faro-banks
which. like him, are trying to dupe
the people. We think before he gets
through his party will discover that
they made mistake in not sending
him to play push-p with Teddy
aud help TO keep him quiet rather
than allowing him TO travel around
disgusting the people by his misrep-
RESERVATIONS. and thus losing votes
for their ticket. His imperial, tariff,
gold and prosperity stories are all
equally marvellous and true. We hope
November will find him high and dry
ON the fair banks of Salt River.
About all the strikes have been call
ed off, and the cotton and other mills
are starting up The approach of
frost and snow sets men to thinking
that half n loaf is better than none.
In New York the subway engineers
will get their $50 per day, at least
until the Sth of November, when some
sort of slump may be looked for.
On the whole the labor situation as
sumes n much brighter aspect and
peace and plenty are smiling at each
other.

chants and coolies. are leaving Poft
Arthur with permission from the Rus
sian authorities. Fifty junks which
left Port Arthur yesterday with Chi
nese passengers have arrived here.
The reports OF the latest arrivals vary
in minor details. but agree in the
statement that a battle has been raging
for four days within ten miles Of Port
Arthur. All the Russian soldiers have,
It is said. left Port Arthur for the
front and only three large ships and
number Of seamen remain In the
harbor. The Chinese are unable to ex-
plain what has become OF the other
large ships. They further report that
ali forts at Port Arthur have been
more or less damaged by recent bonn
bardments and a number mine- re-

Dor were exploded during a thunder

Colorado Springs, Colo. June s.--A
special to the Gazette from Victor says
Eight unknown men armed with
shotguns, rifles. pistols and siedge-
hammers entered the ONCE OF the vic'
tor Record at li:4S o'clock tonight and
ordered the workmen 10 throw up thes'
hands, then broke up machinery and
told the printers to get out OF th'
district as fast as they could. The
printers walked north, and the eight
men started on toward the south.
The Record has been known as the
organ Of the Western Federation Of
Miners in this section. The printers
have not decided whether they will
leave or not.

lana Cut the cahla.

London, June S.-The sudden inter-
ruption Of the cable between Korea
ana Japan Is considered significant OF
important troubles at Port Arthur, the
Japanese having taken the precaution,
as usual. to cut the only means OF
communication with the outside world,
and thus enable the forces to work
with absolute secrecy.
No attention is paid in London to
the rumors that the storming Of the
fortress has already begun. because IL
is known that at the battle Of Kin
Chou General oku had but little am
munition and the Japs must renew
their ammunition from their stores.
1t is considered likely that Admiral
Togo Is not averse to Port Arthur
wasting Its ammunition in constant
encounters with gunboats. This may
explain the rumored bombardments,
while the firing ON the land side may
be due to preliminary operations, hav-
Ing for their purpose the driving in
Of the Russian forces.
