ALEXANDRIA COUNTY.
Political Fight Beginning to Get Elk
citing.

The political situation In Alexandria
county lust across the Potomac, Is begin
ming to warm up. The principal fight APP
pears to center around the position OF clerk
of the court for which there are three
candidates-Geo. H. Rucker. the incumbent;
r w. Johnston and Brook d. Young. for
many years deputy clerk OF that court.
Friends of Mr. Young feel that he has more
than a fighting chance for election because
of his long experience in the office under
his father, who was for many years clerk
of the court, and for the further reason that
he is said to be popular, upright. industrious
and in every way capable of filling the po-
sition with credit to himself and to the
county.
1t Is claimed by many voters In the county
that the fight Is really between Mr.. Young
and Mr. Rucker. as ii is charged Mr.. John
ston has always been identified with an
undesirable element and many people VIII
not vote for him on this account. :
Mr. Young charges that Mr. Rucker is
now trying to make the voters believe that
Johnston has more than fighting chance
race for the purpose OF drawing votes from
Mr.. Rucker so as to make sure the election
of Mr. Johnston This Mr.. Young says IL
far from the case as, he says, he mas as
surances from people who will not vote TOT
Rucker under any condition and VINO ao
not favor Johnston that they are ms
friends. Mr. Young says he feels the peo-
pie of the county should know TINS cohui-

CENTRAL UNION MISSION.
Annual Meeting Held and Two Di-
rectors Chosen.

The annual meeting of the managers and
others interested in the Central Union Mis-
sion was held last evening in the board
room of the mission on Louisiana avenue.
The attendance was one of the largest in
the history of the mission. The meeting was
called to order by Mr. n. A. Robbins, sec
rotary of the board of directors, and MI
w. H Ramsey was called to the chair.
Mr.. j. c. Pratt the mission treasurer, pre-
scented the financial report for the year,
which showed all bills paid to date, and
a small balance In the treasury. 1t also
500 on the bonded debt, leaving an indebt-
eflncss on the building of $4,000. The
mana cement feels confident of reducing this
amount five or ten thousand dollars during
the coming year.
Messrs O. B.. Brown and w. c. Tyler
were unanimously reelected members of
the board of directors for a term of five
years.
There was quite a spirited discussion.
lasting until late hour, as to the policy
of the mission with respect to the introduce
ton Of doctrinal Views in mission meetings
not held in common by all of the evan
gelicaI churches. The consensus of opin-
ion was to the effect that the mission plat
form should be wide enough to hold in the
unity of the spirit and bond OF peace all
who are in accord with the essential doe
trine of salvation leaving the special in
depreciation Of the scriptures on denomina-
tional lines to be exploited elsewhere.
The interest manifested gives promise OF
greater activity on the part of the work.
ers during the coming year than ever be-
fore.
Rev. r. r. Redel and many others spoke
most encouragingly of the outlook for the
institution.

American Goods Favorites.

On every hand there are calls for Ameri-
can dry goods, groceries, shoes, hats cloth
ing. etc, by the Americans throughout ia
pan. Prices of European goods are high
and the stock satisfactory, still, in spite
of these conditions. the merchants ham
ding such goods do a thriving business.
Cotton elaStics, which ordinarily retail at
home at from three to five cents per yard
sell in Kobe at from fifteen to thirty cents
per yard; other notions range accordingly
Ribbons of every variety sell at prices
ranging from double to treble and quadru-
pie the prices in America. Flannels, under
wear hosiery, hats for women and children
all bring prices that are unreasonabiy ex-
orbitant when compared with American
standard.
Groceries are also high in price. Crack
ers, similar to those In America, sold at
from five to fifteen cents a pound bring
from thirty to fifty cents. These are sold
in tin-lined boxes. with the paper cover
over the box, presenting an appearance
similar to the popular method OF packing
crackers In America. The tin box is abb
solutely necessary in shipping such goods
to Japan, or selling them. by reason of the
long ocean voyage and the excessive mois-
ture In the Japanese climate. The English
appear to be the only people selling such
