accept the pastorate of the local
church. The members are very anX-

Latest War News.

Sc. Petersburg. Aug. 1.-Although
public attention has been distracted
from the war during the past week the
situation at the front is regarded as
critical.
The enveloping movement of the
three Japanese armies of General Ku.
roki, Nodzu and Oku around General
kuEopatkin'e position appears to be
almost complete, and the extended line
OF the Japanese seems to be the only
drawback to concerted action.

there is some unofficial indications that

what course General Kuropatkin elects

THE HAND OF ESAU.

We publish elsewhere an article
from the Gate City Herald, which con-
tains more food for reflection to the
line, than anything we have seen in
current political literature. Our friend
Of the Herald is very nearly right in a
pretty strong criticism of the action Of
d. C. Sloan, Republican Chairman, in
paying the delinquent POLL tax alluded
to.
The mistake he made was In saying
that "Mr. Sloan has a right to do as he
pleases with his money" He has no
such right, and his action was In
fragrant violation Of law and decency.
1t was wisely provided that the
poll tax should in all cases be paid
by the delinquent, Gin person." and
Mr.. Sloan in our opinion is providing
1or an elecuOn contest that Will certain
ly show up all the facts and in
validate every vote made possible by
Mr.. sloans "vicarious sacrifice"
We await with some impotence the
active campaign to which Mr.. Sloan is
playing the prelude. We want to hear
a few moral lectures from Col Slemp
and his coadiutors on purity in cleo
lions. II our present Congressman
succeeds himself he must have a
majority altogether independent Of
votes bought by his friends and
doubtless with his money.

THE TELEPHONES ABUSE.

The telephone is good thing-we
could hardly get on without it, But
like all good things it becomes a
nuisance and worry If abused or not
properly used.
Some people fail to answer
promptly when called. To ring and
ring for Central" or any one else on
the line and have to wait indefinitely
when busy tempts one to think bad
words, and sometimes say them, be-
sideslose valuable time. Promptness
In answering a call Is appreciated by
all parties concerned.
The use of the phone for useless
purposes is another source of worry.
Boys and girls, with nothing else to
do, often mOnopolize line when If

purposes. 1t should be understood
that during business hours oplv
business matters should be attended
to oyer the phone. To jump up from
an important task to answer the bell
and find that some idle "kid~ some

the office or store who is very busy.
about some foolishness, tempts one
to he impoiite.
If our phone service is properly
used and not abused it will greatly
facilitate business.
