As some one has said, our Amer ican educated young men constitute a bridge across the broad expanse of the Pa cifc ocean, on which American learning, American ideals, American institutions, American inventions, American products and manufactures are conveyed into China.
 They will be able to insure peace and trade in the far east that treaties and

cut by Eugene Mitchell, Monday night

liver, the other passing through his
arm was reported as being in a very
bad shape, on inquiry at the county

very dangerous place, which at any
time may develop complications which
are not now evident.

The big mill of the J. J. Newman
Lumber Company will resume opera,

left to be done except putting the
finishing touches on, the machinery
has all been Installed and the work
of clearing up the grounds and remov-
