Mukden Fallen 2

For the present there is apparent
necessity for printing some Of the
most startling Eastern news interro-
gatively. Reports from the troubled
front are subject to sudden revision.
The difficulty OF getting accurate news
through such a region of turmoil,
where hundreds OF thousands of men
fight along hundred miles, is appar-
ene.
Mukden is said to have fallen. Con-
firmation of this would not be a sur
prise. II it has not fallen, that 1t
must do so in the near future is
almost certainty The eye cannot
pierce far into the array of tomor-
rows. but it may discern the actually
impending. Oyama has proved him
self to be one OF the great mill
tary captains of all time. His plans
are laid with the cunning of genius.
His blows are struck with a force
that never is wasted. He is always
conscious OF his objective, and works
toward it, implacabIe, unwavering.
and not to be resisted
Kuropatkin has perhaps the disad-
vantage of an army less devoted to
the cause it represents. The Rus
slams are not all patriotic, and there
is in their conduct in the face of fire
no inkling OF Oriental fanaticism.
They know when they are beaten.
The japanese, fighting for their ma
tfonal existence, will not acknowledge
defeat.
There is a general feeling that the
present mighty battle must be the de-
cisive event of the war. With Muk-
den once taken the Japanese will have
made great progress in the scheme of
rolling back the Russians. cutting off
retreat, and leaving TO Kuropatkin no
alternative but surrender. That this
Is the plan Of Oyama does not admit
OF doubt. and that it will be success
ful is reasonable hypothesis.
It is true that Russia could raise
another army, but there is limit to
the capacity to transport and feed
oen. Ii the present troops Of Kuro-
paIkin cannot beat back the japanese
tide, there does not appear that there
remains single chance for the Gar
to tf1arnph. Torn by domestic trou-
hiess With navy that is a laughing
stock, with people diseontented to
the point o. revolution, the refusal of
Russia tG come to terms without
sticking for too many concessions
would hive the aspect of an act of
madness

An ATmu Scandal.

Army circles are perturbed at
scandal which involves the death of
the wife Of one officer and the dis
grace of another officer. The latter
has made an effort 10 resign, but has
failed. The intention seems to be to
get him out of the service, but to do
it by method more salutary
It is matter for felicftation that
the army is so free from episodes of
this characf that the rare one that
makes its appearance is an episode
deemed remarkable. The officers are
gentlemen of a high class. Their
training tends TO maintain them at a
high plane of personal honor. There
is sort OF free masonry among them.
Each officer takes pride in conducting
himself properly, and 1t is not only
an individual pride but relates to the
whole service. Such an affair as the
one under consideration is not COW
cred up, because a better and more
effective method is exposure and
elimination. The officer who has dis
graced himself and wronged his fell
low neef not look for any sympathy

Breaking Of ills.

There has been wide interest in the

from the estate of his late friend.
Philo Bennett While the press and
public refrained from taking sides.
there will be some regret that Mr..
Bryan loses in the final decision.
Without going into the legal aspects
or the case, for the lay citizen is not
competent to do this, and must re-
gard the court as both able and Just.
il may be said that the Sealed letter"
seemed to represent the desire of the
testator. An unusual method of ex-
pressing the desire was taken, but
that this should interfere would not
have been the unstudied verdict of
the observer
1t is peculiar circumstance that
so many wills can be broken. In
many instances the palpabIe intent is
ignored owing TO some formulation
not In accord with accepted usage. To
make will so strong that it cannot be
attacked with some show of being
overthrown seems well-nigh impossi-
ble- Where public policy does not in
tervene there may be fatal technical
error in construction, or some evf-
dence Of carelessness. The only way
to avoid a contest with certainty is
to pass away without leaving an es-

THE SONG OF THE RETREATINC
RUSSIAN ARMIES.

Were marching on to freedom in the
dark before the dawning;
The shells are bursting round us, and
the shrapnel shrek on high.
We're marching on to freedom, through
the black and bloody morning;
crimson thread is in the east, and
creeps across the sky.
We're hopeIessly defeated let the joy
Gus news be shouted.
Our armies are in full retreat and soon
we shall be free.
Outfought and outmaneuvered, out
fianked and raked and routed.
Three hundred thousand beaten men
are singing like the sea.
Our forces fill the valleys full; the plain
is overhowiug;
Our bayonets ciothe the trampled earth
like fields of sloping corn.
Above the distant mountain tops. the
light is slowly growing:
4 scarlet cord is in the east, and soon
ii will be morn.
o grave where is thy victory? o death,
where is thy singing?
We die that Russia may be free; we
lose that she may gain.
There's blood uDon the road we take.
but still we take il singing,
Our triumph is In our defeat our glory
in our pain.
Were marching on to freedom through
the blood-red light of morning;
The cannon roar behind us. and the
dead are falling fast.
You can see our patient faces, in the
crimson of the dawniEg;
We've suffered through the weary
night, but day has come at last
For we're beaten-beaten-be Let
the joyous news be shouted;
We've lost the tyrant's battle now,
and soon We shall be free
Wronged, robbed. oppressed, tormented,
imprisoned. exiled, kpouted.
A hundred million Russian Slavs are
rising like the sea.

In playing twentv-one, and after a

The Colorado Situation.

Report is made that the Democrats
which to keep Governor Adams in
Office. 1t is strange and regrettable
circumstance that there should be
necessity for this, or any sanction.
The voters of a State have right
to elect to the executive chair the
choice of the majority. When there
is difficulty in determining the choice
by a counting Of the ballots, the evil
dence of corruption is complete.
Neither side, for the credit of the
public, can afford to indorse corrup-
ton. At such crisis partisanship
ought to disappear and both sides
make common cause against moral
decay.
The fact is that after these months
Of turmoil people outside of Colorado
do not know whether Peabody or
Adams was elected. People inside
must be better informed Mr. Adams
has the present advantage of being in
the chair. 1t cannot be believed of
him that he would try to retain the
place, nor is it easy to suppose that
Mr.. Peabody would be less lacking in
discrimination Each is to a certain
extent the victim of followers. These
followers, by their evident intent to
win regardless Of right, are fastening
upon the State a disrepute which must
be distressing to all good citizens.
