The very best way to insure a big
Republican vote in Septemberis to ex-
cite hot representative fights in every
town in the state. This may be deli
cate matter for the state committee to
handle, but it would do the business
all right. Given two or three live
candidates for town representative in
each town and the state majority
would take care OF itself.

Reform ia Numerical Accountinn.

CHICAGO, Feb. 20.-A national law
to establish uniform system of ac-
counting for municipalities is urged in a
letter which City Comptroller Mccain
sent today to Secretary Cortelyou, Of
the department of commerce and labor.
Such a system, it is claimed, would
give to the government extraordinary
aid and greater accuracy in the compi-
lation of statistics and materially re-

would, 1t is said. give to the munich.
palities an annual audit by the gov
ernmental officers, similar to the ma
tional bank examinations. This boon
would be one of the chief considera-
tons influencing the municipalities in
adopting a uniform system. Mr.. NC

TAFT DEFENDS ROOSEVELT.
Talks of the Honesty and Candor
of the President.

Montpelier, VT, Aug 26.-Secretary
of War William H. Taft addressed a
Republican rally in Armory Hall here
this afternoon. The secretary. in de-
Tending President Roosevelt. said:
mo man ever sat in the presiden-
tial chair more anxious to avoid war
or conflict with foreign nations than
does he. His impulsiveness of man.
ner and his quickness of thought and
speech co-exist with real conserva-
tism of action that makes it as GER
tain as it was under Mr. Mckinley
that no policy will be followed need
lessly exposing the interests OF the
country to the peril of war. All. but it
is said wait until he has free hand
after the election. then you will see
him in his true light. It is difficult
to answer such gratuitous sugges-
ton, founded, as it must be, on the
assumption that a man like Theodore
Roosevelt. whose candor and honesty
are so patent that he almost thinks
aloud, has been playing a part for
three years and Is only awaiting the
SbCNNoo at NitNAtpi ~ AlIOW OIL IUG
mask. It is too ridiculous for disctls-
sion."
Mr.. Taft took up the Philippine
question. saying:
The Republicans hope that the time
may come when they may be safely
granted Independence. and think that
it will come. but the reason why they
are not in favor of promising that is
because such a promise will greatly
mislead the Filipino people and great
~ complicate the situa tion In the
Philippine Islands with respect to the
success of the present government and
its orderly continuance. No pron1i se
can be made to the Filipinos except
that we will grant them independence
when they are At for complete self
government"

"BLACK HAND BUSY.
Two Men Were Assaulted by It's
Members for Vengeance.


wilkesbarre, Pa. Aug. 26.-The
''Black Hand" of the Malta Society
struck a blow of vengeance in Athens,
Pa, tonight and two men are lying
in the Robert Pacl0ert Hospital at
Sayre as a result of that mysterious
band of Italian bandits. The men who
were attacked are Dominica Mostello
and Giuseppe Scirona. Italians
Some time ago Mostello informed the
Lehigh Valley Railroad detectives of
the identity of the three members of
the Malta gang who held up a large
number Of Italians at Lake Carey and
levied tribute on them. The members
of the BLACK Hand" we're arrested,
but ii was impossible to convict them,
as Mostello and all the other Italians
were afraid to testify against them
In open court. Soon afterwards two

Last night one Of the three, said to
be a member of the Mafia band of
New York. leading some recent re-
cruits, made from the Athens colony,
again attacked Mostello and Scirona
and they secured considerable money
from Mostello and SIS from Scirona
Then the leader of the band DELHI
erately shot Mostello twice and stab
bed him several times with a stiletto
Scirona was shot through the face and
three teeth knocked out and the base
of his tongue injured. 1t is probable
that Mostello's injuries will prove ia

JAPANESE STARTED
OPERATIONS AGAIN.
They Made the Attack, Not the RUS
SLAMS.

st. Petersburg. Aug. 26.-After four
weeks interval the Japanese have re-
sumed their advance against Gen. Ku-
ropatkin's positions. The opposing
armies are in contact east and south of
Lao Yang and fighting has been in
progress since Wednesday.
Since the rains ceased a week agd
there have been continued limitations
that Gen. Kuropatkin was about to
assume the offensive, but instead Of
that, it was the Japanese who attack
ed the Russian commanders eastern
and southern positions. A japanese
column 10000 strong. was reported on
Tuesday to be marching UP the right
bank of the Lianhe river, which would
seem to indicate that three Japanese
armies are cooperating in enveloping
three sides Of Lao Yang. The fact
that the Japanese are preparing pom
toons at the Taitse river was noted IN
these dispatches several days ago. The
capture Of this ridge Will be the first
object Of the Japanese. and doubtless
will entail severe lighting In which
the japanese probably are counting on
If they are successful the Russian
positions at Anping and Liandiansian
will become precarious. Their opera
tons on Anping are supported from
Gutziatzy. three miles higher up the
Lianhe river and along the Taitse
river. as shown I'm the dispatch report
ing that the front south of the Taitse
river was engaged and that Gen. Ku-
rokl was simultaneously moving on
Liandiansian. along the high road. as
reported from Lao Yang last night
and by the fact that another Japa-
nese column rs moving on Landau
sian along the south road from Siolind-
~, ten miles northeast Of Haicheng
That Cen Kuropatkin had foreseen
these various moves is shown by the
manner IN which the attack on Tan
zapu was met and by the repulse al

AS Easy.
Needs Only a Little Thinking.

The food of childhood often decides
whether one is to grow up well nour-
iShed and healthy or weak and sickly
from improper food.
It's just as easy to be one as the
other, provided we get a proper start.
A wise physician like the Denver
doctor who knew about food can ac-
complish wonders, provided the pa
tient is willing to help and will eat
only proper food.
Speaking of this case the mother
said her little 4-year-old boy was suf-
fering from peculiar arrangement of
the stomach liver and kidneys, and
his feet became so swollen he couldn't
take a step. I'VE called "A doctor,
who said at once we must be very

STORY OF THE FIGHT
NEAR LAO YANG.

Kantzertun (Seven Miles Southeast
of Lao Yang, Aug. 26.-Contrary to
the expectation of the Russians the
Japanese are beginning to advance
along the whole line of the Russian
eastern front. On the morning of Aug
"a there was a rifle skirmish and the
next day the Japanese artillery opened
fire. On both days the firing ceased at
dusk and the small energy displayed
by the japanese might have been taken
to indicate that it was merely DEM
onstration or a reconnaissance in force
On the morning of the 26th. however
the rifle and artillery fire was renewed
with an energy that left no doubt that
a severe battle was intended.
The japanese pushed their attack
against the Russian right flank and
center, concentrating their fire upon
the First Battery of the Third Brigade.
Three officers and seven men were
wounded early in the day, but the
battery held its position and replied to
the Japanese fire with such effect that
Gen. Ivonoff, who commands the late
Gen. Count Kellers corps, sent a con-
gratulatory message to it's commander.
The Japanese several times attempt
ed to cross the Tankcho Giank river),
but only a few succeeded and these
were forced to hide in the fields of
Chinese corn.
At , o'clock in the afternoon the
artillery fire became as hot as it was
at Vafangow, but it fiuctuated consid-
erably and occasionally the Russian
fire almost silenced that of the Japa-
nese. Rain fell in torrents at o'clock.
but it did not stop the fighting and
late in the evening several Russian
companies moved forward to the at
tack.
1t is not yet possible to state posi-
lively the result of the battle, but 1t
is claimed that the Russians We're sue
