I'VE appreciate the great Importance.

Hangs regiment engaged the rebels

ing dispersed them. Two officers were
executed for failing to divulge their
knowledge of the movement.
1t Is believed the attacking party
only intended to loot the city. but
most of the towns in the interior have
10 defenders from such outbreaks In
which both the republican and former
imperial troops indulged. The repub-
lican spirit apparently is not appre-
ciated by the classes from which the
soldiers are recruited.
The object of the present loan is os-
tensibly for the purpose of paying off
and discharging this me1acing army.
which is very large.
The Chinese appear to be well
pleased with the success Of the new
loan negotiations.
Little heed has been paid to the
fact that contrary to the constitution
this contract has not been submitted
to the national assembly.
1t is believed that President Yuan
Shi Kai prefers a comparatively small
loan because his authority IL not yet
sufficient to control. while a govern
ment organizat ton for handling the
money does not exist since the late
government bank closed it's doors.
Pathetic conditions prevail through
out the country. Occasionally detach-
ments of soldiers engaged in looting
and wanton destruction. Trade is
greatly hampered and thousnds of per-
sons are dying from starvation who
could be saved by the employment Of q
few foreign engineers.
The political situation. which is
absorbing the republican leaders, has
curious and interesting phases. The
Manchu princes recently gave dinner
in honor Of DR.. Sun Vat Sen and
TOASTED the republic. But the i'm
perial guard lined the streets during

the safe course. The troops of the

Martin TO Open
STATE CAMPAIGN
Nominee for Governor. De-
clares That New Party
Is Out to Win.

q. H. Martin, Progressive nominee
for governor. is in the city today in
consultation at headquarters Of the
Progressive party concerning his cam
paign which he will begin with a
speech at Caldwell tonight. which will
also be attended by a number of the
candidates upon the state ticket.
Mr.. Martin brings word that the
Progressive movement has swept the
north and that he will come down to
the southern section Of the state with
more than 5000 plurality for governor.
Upon request OF the Capital News
Mr.. Martin consented to state some
Of the acts done by him as an attor-
ney to show his sympathy with pro-
gressive ideas and the progressive
movement. the idea being conveyed to
him that specific acts would show
better than any amount of wordy dec
larations. 1t will be noted from what
he says that the nominee for COVER
nor upon the Progressive ticket bears
the unique and wholly unusual dis
tinction Of having been employed as
an attorney against corporations and
special interests instead OF attorney for
such interests. Mr.. Martin said:
"One thing has given me greater
pleasure than my nomination to the
governorship on the Progressive ticket.
and that is the expressions Of good
will and hearty assurances Of support
Of the people of my own county of
Bonner 1t is a great satisfaction to
have the support of my own people re-
gardless Of party or faction.
