NO NAVAL FIGHT YET
The Japanese and Russian
fleets are now both sparring-for
an opening but no actual engage-
ment has yet taken place
— Japanese torpedoe boats and
fast cruisers are continually
scouting the waters of the straits
of Formosa and keeping a sharp
lookout for the Russian Squad
ron
Several colliers have been cap-
tured by the Japanese These
: colliers were - evidently waiting
to supply the Russians with coal
Very little information of a de-
finite character can be obtained
as to the movements of either
of the fleets It is generally
conceded howeverjbat the Japs
will endeavor to cripple as many
of the Russia-i vessels as pos-
— aible by torpedoe "boat attacks at
first and then close in on them
with the heavier ehips
The enormous importance of
the issues depending on the re-
sult of the meeting of these two
great squadrons is recognized by
the commanders of both and
— great caution will be exercised in
Splaying for an opening to strike
a fatal and decisive blow

HOLDS HER OWN
Considering the scarcity of
ready cash at this-time-of-tlie
year and the fact that our mer-
chants have practically reduced
their business to a cash basis
trade has been remarkably good
in Lenora this spring ' —
Ventioner and Co R H Man-
ning Joy and Hallmark J F
Nickel and other business men
here report a steady cash trade
This is very creditable to Lenora
as there are -few -towns "which
would not have lost heavily in a
business way by the sudden
change from a credit to a cash
basis
Lenora appreciates the patron-
i age of her old friends and is
always ready to welcome new
ones

THE FARMERS MEETING
Notwithstanding the rainy
weather laat Tueaday tbedel-
egates to the Convention of the
Farmers Educational Co-operative
Union " began to arrive
early in the morning and by
noon fully 150 had come to
town The use of the school
house was acoepted by the
farmers as it was more roomy
than the Hall and all afternoon
crowds of members and dele-
gates were hurrying backhand
forth while some were congre-
gated on the street in knots of
two or three discussing the most
important issues of the cam-
paign against the trusts A meet-
ing was called during the after-
noon but little business was
transacted so it was decided to
hold an evening-session:
-Immediately after supper the
delegates repaired to the school
house and - finally got down to
business but it was after 2AM
when they got through
The session was a secret one
and as a resolution was passed

of action which bad been mapped
out we are unable to give any
details as to nature of the busi-
ness transacted

their toil If they can only hold
together in part it will have the
result of forcing higber prices
and of bringing them some re-
ward for their labor
