At a very pleasant meeting in Repub

Hon. J. D. McJunkin and A. M. Christly
Esq., reviewed the polical issues of the

some pointed anecdotes; Chairman
Painter told of the visit of the candi
dates to each polling place in the coun
ty, and remarks were made by Hon.
Thomas Hays, L- E. Christly and Carl
Bhanor.
All the Republican Presidential elec
tors resigned from the Citizens and
Roosevelt and Fairbanks party nomina
tions and that spoiled Harry Whites
game in Indiana county, and the fusion
movements in some other counties
Batler county is having n qt fun,
whatever.ont of politics this year, while
over in Indiana county, Judge White is
putting up a brassband and red-fire fight;
in Venango county Sibley is setting up
the burgoo, in Mercer county Judge
Miller is saying pretty things about
Williams.
The Americas Club of Pittsburg was
well represented at the mass meeting at
Madison Square, New York, last night.
One hundred and fifty of the Club's
members in uniform, went on.
Jndge Parker, who is a novice in
National affairs, has been making some
"monumental blunders" oh pension and
foreign affaire; and ex-Secretary Onley
has gone daft on the Panama canal.
' Roosevelt is sure of 204 votes and
needs but 35 more, while Parker is sure
of but 151. The doubtful states add up
121 electoral votes.
West Virginia is now considered safe
on the National Ticket, but the state is
wobbling in the Governorship.
Parkersburg West Virginia was a
lively town last Saturday. Uncle Joe
Cannon and some of the Republican
speakers were there that afternoon, and
"Uncle Gassaway" and his crowd that
evening.
President Roosevelt has appointed
Robert J. Wynne tolbe Postmaster Gen
eral to succeed the late Henry C. Payne
m,. Wjuuu wau itanlsßam rostmasten
General previous to this appointment.
He will hold the office nntil Chairman
Cortelyou is ready to take the place.
For purposes of identification, it may
be well to note that the name of the
* Governor of Ohio is Myron T. Herrick;
while the gentleman who fondly imagin
es that be will be the next Governor of
New York is D. Cady Herrick.
J. W. Hutchison, A. M. Christley and
W. J. McDowell will be the speakers
at tbe Republican meeting in Lyndora,
tomorrow evening..
A Great Celebration.
The "dam celebation" on the Ohio, a
few milefc below Rochester! Pa., last
Saturday, was a great affair; the dedi
cation services and speeches being seen
and beard by about twenty-five thous
and people. Tbe crowd, mostly from
the Beaver valley, assembled at Roches"
ter and went from there to Merrill, five
miles down the riyer. in steamboats and
barges to the new dam and locks lately
OJmpleted by the National government,
at a cost of a million dollars. Here the
crowd disembarked, and listened to the
speeches.
It is nineteen years since the Davis
Island dam was dedicated, and this new
dam is the second in the "On to Cairo"
moyement. One of the speakers criticised
the governmet for being so slow in its
work, and another criticised the rail
roads for discriminating against the
Ohio river towns in freight rates, but
bat all supported Major Sibert in nis
effort to force the raising of the bridges
at Pittsburg. Letters of regret were
read from President Roosevelt, Senators
Knox and Penrose, and others. The
building of the dams is of great import
ance to the people of the river towns, as
It improves their facilties for manufac
toring.
UNCLE Henry Gassoway Davis is a
wonder as a campaigner. He has put
the young bloods to shame and is now
potting the girls to tk9 blush. He has
entered upon a kissing contest that at
one time seemed destined to out-Hobson
Hobson. It must be that Uncle Henry
has been reading "Pickwick Papers"
and concluded that the great strategy
of the candidate at the Eatonswill elec
tion deserved repetition. He started in
nobly, and it must be said that the girls
were willing. But tbe third day there
came a chilling frost After announcing
at a meeting on Saturday that he would
kiss fifty girls present he suddenly I
backed out and the maidens went home
with virgin lips.
Another Arnault at IlnHxton.
Friday evening while Mrs. James Mc-
Marlin and het son and daughter were
seated at the supper table in their hftrne
a( Hallston two drunken Italians rushed
Into the house and seized tbe two wo
men. One grabbing Mrs. McMarlin by
the head and jerking her back, chair
and all onto tbe floor. The boy ran out
Of the honse and began to scream and
the girl broke loose from the assailant
and also scaeamed. This alarmed the
two brntes and tbey ran away to their
boarding house with another Italian
near by. McMarlin, who is a railroad
section hand, and other men were
afraid to enter the Italian house to get
the guilty man, and when Deputy
Sheriff Hepler was seen through the
windows of the southbound evening
train they called him out, and told him.
A warrant was secured for Nick Nicka
bella. tbe man who attacked Mrs. Mc-
Marlin, bat as the Deputy and bis men
approached the house. Nickabella jump
ed from a second story window and
escaped in the woods owing to tbe
settling darkness. The boarding houre 1
man jumped in front of Deputy Hepler
and showed fight and Hepler pulled his |
gun and took him over to Hallston eta- j
tion, where he was kept an hour and
then released. Sunday evening Nicka-'
bella returned and was arrested and
brought to jail
WAR NOTES.
The completion of the railroad around |
the southern end of Lake Baikal and j
tbe rapid inereare in the reinforcements
s>nt thereby to Kuropatkin, induced
that General to consider himself in
sh ipe to assume the aggressive.
On Sunday of last week he issued a
rather pompous addr«s3 to his army,
announcing his intention to attack the
Japanese, relieve Port Arthnr and drive
tbe Japs into the sea.
On Monday his entire line extending
from the Hnn river across the valley
and railroad to the hills or mountains,
a distance of about thirty miles began
its advance, driving iu the Jap out
posts.
The advance was continued, Tuesday,
the Japanes? retiring and the Russians
capturing a strong position on the Japs
right flank, which it was expected
Kuroki would vigorously defend. Next
day, however, he drove a wedge be
tween it and a flanking force, and re
captured the position.
In the meantime Gen. Oku s army
had defeated the right wing of the Rus
sian army, the Russian centre had
been repulsed by Gen. Nodzu, and by
Friday the entire Russian army was re
treating.
On Saturday and Sunday there was
fighting all along the line, the Russians
continuing their retreat to » positien
along a branch of the Hun river.
In this, the greatest battle yet fought,
in this war. about half a million men
were engaged—2so,ooo on either side.
The Russians had the advantage of
longer raDge field guns and good caval
ry, while the Japs are better marksmen
and are quicker in their marching
To offset the longer range of the Rus
sian field guns the Japs took advantage
of the darkness and the mists to secure
nearer positions, concealing their move
ments by every known device, after
which their superior marksmanship
caused the Russians to move. The
Japanese gun-fire-is said to have anni
hilated whole regiments, and one bleed
ing captain reported to his commander
that he alone was left of his company.
Beside this there were some desperate
bayonet charges, and hand-to-hand con
flicts.
In was the bloodiest battle of the war
aad it is estimated that sixty thousand
men were hit during the week. The
Japanese Commander reported that his
troops buried 2000 Russian dead on
Thursday night, and had buried about
8000 more of the same up to Saturday
night. He estimated the entire Rus
sian loss at 40,000 and his own at 20,000.
Twenty thousand wounded Russians
were sent to Mukden by rail.
The Russian army was again defeat'
ed with great loss in men and field guns,
but it was not routed, the lack of cav
alry by thfi Japanese preventing their
swiftly following up the victory.
This condition of affairs makes this
whole war a mere matter of attrition
or human butchery ad nanseum —and it
is no wonder that the Japs have signifi
ed their willingness to consider terms
of peace.
On Monday and Tuesday the Rus
sians made fierce SSSaOTTS upon the Jap
left and centre, and seem to have had
the best of it, retaking an important
position. One Jap division was caught
in a trap and lost a thousand men and
some guns. After the fighting the dead
of both sides lay in heaps, mingled to
gether on the field with rifles broken in
hand-to-hand conflicts.
Yesterday the two armies were facing
each other on either side of the Shahke
river—a branch of the Hun: and rains
had made the roads heavy.
'LIKE A SLAUGHTER-HOUSE.
One of tbe bloodiest episodes of the
desperate fighting between the Japs and
Russians last week occurred at the vil
lage of Endotiula. west of the railroad,
and on the neighboring heights east of
railroad.
The Japanese had been driven out of
these positions with terrible losses, but
on Wednesday evening they concentrat
ed such a murderous artillery fire on the
village that it became necessary for the
Rnssians to withdraw, the railroad,
however, being held. The same even
ing the Russian commander gave im
perative orders to reoccnpy Endotiula
The Zaraisk regiment, without firing
a single shot, marched nnder cover of
tha darkness and bayoneted several
battalions of the Japanese, many of
whom died as they slept.
A few Japanese escaped and sought
shelter in stacks of Chinese corn, bnt
the Rnssians, carried away by the
frenzy of revenge, rushed on the sar
vivors ami literally tore tip their bodies
with bayoneta The Russians then
rolled themselves into the Japanese
blankets.
The next morning the Japanese again
shelled out the regiment, while their
artillery came on at a run and secured
a position east of the railroad. Again
Gen. Kuropatkin ordered the Russians
to retake the position, but the effoits of
his troops were in vain. The Russians
could not reach the Japanese trenches,
so withering was the Japanese tire, and
only few returned from where the com
panies had charged. The companies in
some cases were commanded by ser
geants after all the officers had fallen.
One officer, his face streaming with
]ilood, limped up to a general, who was
furious.
"Where is your company V" asked the
general.
"This is all that I have left of it," re
plied the officer. "It was like a slaugh
ter house."
