Dubois County Has No Delinquent
Tax Sale.

Last Monday was the day set
for the Delinquent Tax Sale, but
before that date arrived, all of
the few pieces advertised for
sale in Dubois county had been
paid, hence the County Treasurer
had nothing to offer and no sale
was had.
This is probably the first time
in the history of the county that
no delinquent tax sale was held,
but il speaks volumes for the
good citizens of old Dubois.

REDUCTION PREDICTED.

That general reduction of wages in
all the great railways and industries is
absolutely necessary, was the assertion
made in Pittsburg, Pa, by Henry
Clews, the New York banker, 10 an ad-
dress before the Pittsburg Chapter of the
American Institute OF Banking.
GA great difficulty the rail 6ays and
other large employers of labor now have
to contend WITH" he said, sis the re-
fusal or uuwillingness ofthe lsbor unions
to consent to reduction of wages to
meet reduced earnings.
"a lowering of wages has become abb
solutely necessary, for they are still at
the high figures to which they we're
pushed during the long period Of pros
perity. The labor unions should recog-
nizs this a. once and reduce their wage
scales, and not wait until they are forced
to yield. It is one of the great RENE
dies that the situation now calls for.
"Workmen should not forget tina;
half loaf is better than no bread, and
ty accepting reduced wages they are
paving the way TO better times for them
selves as we'll as for the country.
"rheD, too, they owe duty TO So
ciety at lsrgei no one should be gov
erned by the narrow, selfish policy of
living for himself slone. This is a world
in which We must give and take, and
labor and capital have mutual interests.

Japan and China.

Pekin, Feb. 27.--Either japan or
China must ''back down" or there ere
excellent propects Of clash over the
latter country's recent seizure off Macao
of the japanese steamship Taisu Maru
on the ground that the craft was snug
Cling arms to Chinese revolutionists.
Diplomats here have anticipated for
some time that the Miksdo's threaten
ing attitude would force China to yield,
but the Chinese government he's shown
unexpt cted 6rmness 10 the matter.
Foreigners agree Chius's attitute 10 IN
assailable and that its proof of the law
less character Of the steamships trade
Is overwhelming.
It is said formal complaint is being
formulated against the manner in which
japanese officials are crippling the
Chinese postal service in Msnchuris,
and that charges will be made against
them Of delaying and even destroying
nail. No one anticipates an improve
ment, but the government plainly looks
for trouble and apparently wants a clean
record il II comes.
Chinese business men say the hall
has not been told concerning the shock
ing condition OF commercial affairs 10
Japan. Big failures and tremendous
bank psuics, it is asserted, are of con-
slant occurrence in ell the lsrge cities.
The Chinese government upquestion-
ably counts On this situation as q stror 6
element of its own strength.

When N. r. Watkins. Lott, Texas, painted
his house before, it took Is gallons; Devos

coat gallons Deyoe; the other coat 10 gal
Ions Of New Orleans paint. That shows the
strength of the paints.
Surfaces differ; one takes more, another
takes less. Devoe covers moe than any
other paint; two to one in the csss Of half the
paints. But how many il covers, we don't
know till we see the surface.
