After The Cotton
Soliciting Committee Busy-Up to
Chickasha to Do Something.

The committee that is soliciting
funds to help bring 1900 bales Of
cotton to Chickasha is carrying on
an active canvass. While they are
meeting with the usual difficulties,
on the whole they are meeting with
fairly good success.
tits plain proposition that con-
fronts the citizens of the town. The
wheat crop has been very short, the
shops are closed and railroad bust
ness generally is suffering from de-
preston. The cotton is growing
in the fields and if Chickasha is to
do business this fall she must get
this cotton. 1t is up to her citizens
to 90 after the cotton. To get it
funds are necessary. Every town
within a radius of forty miles is
bidding for it and offering induce
ments to the farmers. Chickasha
must do the same.
There is no reason why the town
shouldn't have a big fall trade. We
can have it if we enter upon this
cotton campaign in a determined
spirit Business men, property
men, laborers, you cannot afford TO
turn down the appeal the commit
tee will make to you. Put aside
all petty excuses and do your part
in making Chickasha the best cot
ton market in the territory.

emerging ftom Port Arthur yester-
day She struck a mine, after which
she was seen to be listed to star
board. She was towed back in the
harbor.
Chefoo. Aug. "a. (9.3oa a. m ~
A junk which left Liao-d-promor- :
tory the II ght Of August 2I, has
just arrived here. Shereports that
the japanese have succeeded in oc-
cupyiug Antszshan forts as well as
another fort. probably Eizchan,
about a nile southwest Of Antsz-
shan. They have driven the Rus
SLAMS from the parade grounds,
(wk.ch lie about two miles north of
the arbor). they have destroyed
two forts at Chaochanko, which is
within the eastern Notifications and
they have advanced to a point near
Chaochanl,o. This news confirms
information received here previous
" and which the local japanese
were not inclined to believe.
The junk heard firing until mid
night Of August ~. Scarcely
building III Port Arthur remains
undamaged. The town hall which
was used as a magazine. has been
destroyed
-Four large warships unable to
fight are at Port Arthur. Only
one ship, a vessel with two masts
and two tunnels, has guns Oh board.
The fire OF the forts not captured
BY the japanese, together with the
effect of land mines, is given as the
reason why the Japanese have not
as yet conquered the Russian strong
hold.
Lao Yang, Aug. According
to the latest information from Port
Arthur furious japanese attack
throughout August I9 and 20 was
repulsed with terrific loss. This
news was received here with the
greatest JOY.
There has been no serious fight
ing in this region but there has
been a small skirmish at Anshan-
shan, where japanese troops at
tackled a Russian outpost and
were driven of with a loss of six
killed.
Lao Yang has experienced two
days Of bright weather, and there
is touch Of autumn i'll the air
The rainy season has apparently
terminated.
The military inactivity IS credit
ed here 10 the fact that the Japan
ese are concentrating all their
