W4R VIEUS OF EXPERTS.
Japanese Have Already Prorided

Washington, Aus. 26.-The military experts
find the dearth OF official advices from the Far
East detrimental TO the formation OF views as
10 what may be expected of either Russians or
japanese at Port Arthur or In the direction OF
Liao-Yang. The only news which appears TO
have come in the last few days from authorita-
tive sources is the dispatch OF General Sakha-
roff to the effect that the rains have ceased.
that the roads are still impossible" and that
sickness prevails among the troops. The con-
dition of the roads and the health of the SOL
diers described ought to prevent any for
midable operations either side. but the
weather has not appeared as factor OF embar
rassment 10 the japanese, as was predicted, and
there is nothing TO indicate the effect of climate
upon the invading force. SakharOn's informa-
ton OF sickness among his troops might justify
the prediction that that is element which the
Russians find as much foe as the Japanese,
The officers here have wondered that they did
not hear more of the influence of the climate
the health OF the troops in the field.
Considerable interest attaches to the report
by way OF London that Kuroki is planning
vigorous campaign. with evident designs upon
the Russian position ut Liao-fang, This Is
counted upon being the next movement OF the
Japanese. IL Port Arthur falls in the mean time
or shortly afterward. some of the experts
expect, the approach of the frozen season need
have no special terrors for the japanese. The
War Department has learned that the japanese
have already provided themselves with winter
clothing and equipment, and are preparing for
the winter campaign. This is the most impor
tant information that has come from the theatre
of war and II shows the astuteness Of the in

To have gone faster than have already
gone in giving the islanders a constantly in

The Candidacy of Gov. Stewart.

Mr.. Stewart received a handsome
majority of the votes for State senator
at the caucus at Middlebury on Friday
night. We know of quite number of
towns that are sure to follow this lead,
enough, we think, to give the governor
a good majority, with several towns not
yet heard from.
The Register has already outlined the
causes which have led to the introduce
ton of Mr. Stewards name at this
time.
Every sensible man recognizes that as
a result of the very remarkable cam
paign of two years ago which has stirred
up the matter of State expenses and
other important issues, it is especially
important to send to the legislature this
fall our most experienced and ablest
men.
