the people to know they are candidates

RUssIA's LAND GRABBING.

That large majority al the Ameri,

out that the Slerre Nevada mountain
range is just three million years old.

in the far East, however, Russia has
some very good reasons and those should
be taken into consideration before an
opinion that would unduiy prejudice is
finally formed.
Russia is nation Of vast and unlimit.
ed resources and for the proper develop.
ment of them she needs market. In
unmanufaetured products alone Russia
is a colIosal storehouse sufficient for the
needs of the entire world. While the
population and resources are growing
Russia must grow from within before
grabbing land for world empire purposes.
In Europe Russia's advance is effeetually
checked by the ice. blocked waters of the
Baltic sea and the isolation OF the
Black Sea. She must turn to the east
for an outlet for her commerce. To
that end OF empire making Russia began
stupendous undertaking. She built the
'franssSiberian railway. She wanted an
eastern market in order to get her pro-
ducts to the markets OF the world. Rus.
STA claims that she has used every effort
to bring this about peacefully but with.
out avail. Whatever the outcome OF the
war may be it will be seen that for the
growth and advancement fthe Russian
empire, that nation must in some man
ner provide for an outlet for her pro
duets.

THE La GRIPPE EPIDEMIC.

Influenza and la grippe have been cpl
demic for the past several months, in
fact the greater part of the winter In
New York City it is estimated that there
We're about $4,000 cases of Ia grippe
the first part OF this week. Last week
there were 500 victims of pneumonia.
Deaths average so day from the cpl
demic. 1t IS believed that the worst
part Of the grippe weather is over and
that sunshine viii cause cessation OF
the epidemic in this section of the
country from now until the warm
months. Eminent medical authorities
have suggested the following points to
be observed by those who want 10 pre-.
serve their health at this dangerous
time. Keep the feet dry and warm. Ii
the clothing gets damp change it i'm
mediately. Avoid intoxicants, adopt a
plain diet, eat meals regularly, keep the
system in perfect working order, keep
out of the night air and get plenty of
sleep. BE careful to discard wraps in
coming indoors and be sure and put
them on before going ont. Keep away
from sick people and if you have slight
cold, doctor it energetically. If these
things are followed there will not be so
much danger of getting down with the
grippe.

and the experiment is costing the mills
thousands of dollars ana unless the
rate of gain is considerably increased
there is little prospect OF all the plants
being operated in full for months to
come.
The union operatives and Il great
bulk of the non unionists appear as
determined as ever. Complaints have
been made to the factory inspectors
that children not of the age prescribed
by law are ut work and labor leaders
are seeking 10 secure cases against Il
number of the mills. Complaints Of
coercion on the fart Of the overseers
of the poor and State Board OF Charity
are still being Investigated.
The Merchantsi Manufacturing Ca.
have sent a notid % a number of its
tenants to vacate Weir tenements by
Dec. 5, and labor leaders have notified
these tenants to remain in their homes
until elected when the Textile Council,
will take the responsibility of provid-
