There is no valid reason why Monroe
City should not be larger, why the business
should not be doubled, yea doubled again.
1t all depends on the action of our people.
The increase will benefit every citizen of
Monroe City and the country surrounding.
Then let us be up and doing. We can
succeed if we but do our duty. Then let
lis at once proceed. There is nothing to
be gained by delay. Let no jealousy arise
but all work tremendously together. The
time for drifting has passed. In the past
Monroe CITY has forged to the front until
she is to-day in the front van of Missouri
towns. The time is ripe for a greater in
crease along all lines. Let us take adVan-
tage of every opportunity to push our city
forward. Monroe City and Missouri in
general have been too modest. Let us tell
the world what great inducements we have
to offer. Entirely too many people pass
through and go to help build up less favor
ed localities. We can get many of these
to aid Us in building up our city and state
If we but make the effort. Let us do so.

Russians Are Sarcastic.

The Novoe Vremya of st. Peters
burg, in a sarcastic editorial on the
action of the United States senate in
connection with the arbitration trea-
ties, pokes fun at the alleged attempt
of the United States to take the lead
ership of the worlds diplomacy. The
editorial reviews the plan for preserv-
ing the administrative entity Of China
the proposed naval demonstration in
Turkish waters, the establishment or
the republic of Panama and the propo-
sition to hold a second peace confer
ence at The Hague, concluding with
the cornucopia of arbitration treaties,

says. finally met the fate which al
ways oyertakes a new fad. Therefore,

which places the settlement of future
disputes entirely in the hands of Pres
ldent Roosevelt"

MEN MEET DEATH IN NINE
OVER ONE HUNDRED LIVES LOST
IN ALABAMA MINE.
The Explosion is Believed to Have
Been Caused by an Accumulation
Of Dust.

BY an explosion in the Virginia
mine, about eighteen miles southwest
Of Birmingham. Alabama, more than a
hundred union miners are entombed,
and II is believed the entire number
suffered an awful death. Scores of
vigorous rescuers are at work digging
into the mine to relieve their friends
and comrades in the inside.
The explosion is believed to have
been caused by an accumulation Of
dust, although the mine has heretofore
been noted for being entirely free from
dust. It is also believed that as the
entire quota has probably been killed,
the details of the cause of the disas-
ter will never be known.
The class of miners employed was
the best in the district and all be-
longed to the United Mine Workers OF
America. Since the strike has been
on in the Birmingham district many
of the most Industrious and thrifty
miners of Pratt City and other i'm
portant mining points have removed to
the Virginia mines, so that the mines
were being worked to their full capac-
ity by the most skilled miners in the
community

COMMITTED HARi.KARI.
Wounded Japanese Threw Themselves
Into the Flames.


Advices have been received Of a dra-
matte incident during the recent Rus
sian cavalry raid on Yinkow and the
Japanese communication south of Lao
Yang. A Japanese infantry company,
under Captain Yasuhara, was sur
rounded by about 1900 Cossacks near
Anshantien at a commissariat depot.
There was a Chinese house near, UNI
der cover OF which the Japanese made
a desperate stand for seven hours.
They were driven out and recaptured
the Chinese house, driving out a por-
ton of the enemy with bayonets. In
the night the Russians set fire to the
house and the defenders were COM
PEELED to retreat. Captain Yasuhara
and others who were severely wound
ed were unable to escape. They com
mitted hari-kari and threw themselves
In the flames. A surgeon named
Hamba was wounded, and also failed
TO retreat. In spite of the fact that
a Red Cross band was attached to his
arm, the Russians arrested the jap
anese surgeon and threw him into the
flames of the burning house Several
other wounded Japanese were treated
In the same way. A lieutenant, a sub.
lieutenant and a few men finally ef-
tected their retreat to Anshantien.

for the refinery. An appropriation of
$4,000 is made for building and
maintaining the refinery and peniten-

This ends one of the most bitter

WE'RE "CHEAP SKATES"
California Senators Sold Votes for
Small Sum Of $3.50.

The special committee appointed to
investigate bribery charges against
Senators Emmons, Bunkers, Wright
and French, of the California state
senate, recommends that they be ex-
PEELED from the senate.
The four senators were accused OF
demanding and accepting a bride for
protecting certain building and loan
associations from investigation by the
legislative committee on retrenchment
and reform, of which they were mem
bers. A trap was set for them and
marked bills were given to go-be-
tween who was seen to pass the money
to them. Each senator received $3.50.
They have been indicted by the Sac
ramento grand jury.
