and who represented Golfers In the

July last. He had been shot in the

AS a result Mr.. Dunn spent three
months in Yokohama hospital and
saw little of the war.
Praises Japs.
"The Japanese infantryman is the
best soldier on EARTH" said Mr.. Lewis,
THAT is a statement which believe
can make without exaggeration. The
japanese makes a better infantryman
than any other class of soldier. The
japanese cavalry is a farce. The
japanese artillery is not so well man
aged as 1t should be. although il has
done terrible execution.
4 cannot express an opinion as to
the outcome Of the war. The battle Of
Lao Yang was almost fought to a
standstill. Tie Russians were able to
hold the japanese at that point. 1t
was a wonderful battle and the losses
were enormous. presume about 65.-
600 men were lost on both sides during
the eight days fighting.
James F. J. Archibald. who repre-
sented Golfers Weekly on the Russian
side, was in China when the war broke
out and at once went up to Newch-
wang. He followed the Russians to
Lao Yang where he witnessed the
battle from the Russian side and char
acterizes it as a negative victory for
the Japanese
The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1904-11-29
Russians Praised.

The Russian cavalry is the best in
the world" said Mr.. Archibald. "The
japanese have none worthy of the
name, but the Russian cavalry up to
the present has had no opportunity.
There has been mud on all the pas
sages from three to five feet deep.
The corn fields with corn growing to
fifteen feet in height were impossible
for cavalry to penetrate.
Russian bravery is real bravery.
The Russian soldiers recognize the
Japanese as fine soldiers and admire
them The stories Of Russian cruelty
are all farce.
1T is fine sight to see the Russians
go into battle with their bands playing
and choirs singing at the van. Every
Russian is of deeply religious nature,
and the singing of the vespers at even
ing is one of the grandest things /
have ever known.
Il believe that the Russians will
fight until they whip the Japanese.
They will continue to pour troops into
Manchuria until they overwhelm them.
IAN army that can stand such de-
feats as the Russians have had, and
preserve it's morale, must be something
great"

WORDS OF WISDOM.
1.-THE ATTACKS ON a PRoTEc-
4 TIVE TARIFF ARE AIMED AT
THE WAGES OF LABOR
ING MEN,

Extract from the, remarks of Hon.
]. S. Morrill,. of Vermont, page 1920
of the Daily Congressional Record,
50th Congress. LIST SESSION.
The attacks on a protective tariff,
however masked or disguised, are
aimed at the wages of laboring men,
and are not removed by the vain
glorious assumption of free-trade ora
tors, destitute of all sympathy for
manual labor, that Americans can do
more work per day than the people
OF any other country II it were true,
then this extra wear and tear of hui
man life should not go unrewarded;
but it is not wholly true Foreign.
workingmen not only work for less
pay but more hours for days work
than are required here. The output
of great part of manufacturers is,
moreover, inexorab1y regulated by
machinery with fixed speed or revolu-
lions for perfect work. The best ma
chinery is eagerly sought after and
quickly distributed throughout the
world. 1t is the lower and unequal
wages of foreign workmen alone with
which Americans have to contend.
We should not. however, for any con-
impair the superior ply
sique of American workmen by COM
peling them to perform greater tasks
than are allotted to any other people

FOUR MEN WERE KILLED
BY A BOILER EXPLOSION

Raleigh, N. c., Sept, 24.-The boiler
in the gin department of the mann
moth cotton mill Erwin No, 8, at
Dukes, on the Cape Fear & North
ern railway, about twenty-five miles
from Raleigh, exploded with terrific
violence, instantly killing four men,
9scalding another SO badly that he will
die, and partly wrecking the engine
room Several persons were thrown
down by the shock Of the explosion,
but their injuries are not serious.
From the best information obtain
able it seems that the old fireman Of
the mill had just been discharged and
the new man had got tip too much
steam. The engineer refused to work
and the fireman went after the super
intendent As they entered the engine
room together there was a rending
roar and the men were blown to pieces.
