w. II. Millington from Sweet
water, were i'll Sherwood last
Monday and made our hearts
glad by their earnest and enthu-
slastic railway talk They assure
us that the Orient will be built
on the Spring Creek survey and
that work is now going to be done
in dead earnest and the road COM
pleted as soon as possible.
The financial condition of this
company is all that could be de-
sired: They have rolling stock
now on the tracks sufficient to
Justify the issuance Of ST 900, 900
in bonds. This with the capital
that has recently been acquired
will afford ample fund to COM
plete the road from Kansas City
to Port Stilwell.
These gentleman also told us
that San Angeles business men
were not the least bit sleepy or
blind; that they had raised the
bonus asked for and the contracts
would probably be signed in San
Angelo the % inst.
Mr.. McCauley stated very pos
itively that by the time the road
is in operation to San Angelo the
grading will be completed through
IriOn county. This eliminates
the opinion which has often been
expressed here, that San Angelo
would he the Orient's terminus.
1t is now up to the citizens of
Irion county to prove that they
are willing to do the proper thing
by Immediately securing the
right-of-way through their county
and cheerfully deciding it to the
rail road company, TO prove that
this road has already done much
for the good of this country, per-
NIT us to cite you to little land
sale which was made in Coke
county last week. Three hundred
acres Of land, located one mile
southwest Of Bronte sold for
| 81, 900. This same land was
offered for sale three years ago at
So per acre.
Now let us boost the Orient
and be assured that while thas en-.
gagged we shall be boosting our
town and country.
AS we have said before, The
Record is for the Orient, and is
willing to make Il "wheel- horse
of itself if it can serve IN that
capacity. Its columns are evel
wide open and free to anyone who
will use them to promote the in
terests Of Sherwood.

Death and Destruction

Again the japanese with their
splendid hattleships, clever man
euverlng and unerrIng markham
ship have prevailed over the Rus
sian Bear and again is Japan in
complete control of the sea. The
fight occurred ut intervals Sun
day night, Monday and Tuesday.
The Russian fleet has been totally
defeated and u land victory for
Oyama will cause Russia TO con-
clude peace.
Rojestvensky with the most
complete fleet Of fighting ships of
all CINE made his way up from
the Cochin-China coast, where he
has been replenishlng for some
weeks, to the Korean Straits. 1t
was nervy thing 10 do and Rus
STA had great hopes for naval
victory. The fleet of the Japan
csc under Admiral Togo was lay
ing IN wait. Scouts brought the
stern old fighter word of the APP
proach of the Russian feet Sun
day night Everything was in
readiness. Togo was fighting on
the defensive.
The battle begun Sunday night,
had not ended when the last des.
patches were sent from the seat Of
war. 1t may be going on yet III
that there may be some Of the
Russian ships to chase down and
capture. But the main part Of
the fighting has been done,
Rojestvensky lost % ships sunk
or captured and is badly wounded
himself. Admiral Nebogatolf was
captured by the japanese. The
only japanese officer of import
ance who was even wounded IS
