Battleship Nebraska Passed Majestic-
ally Into The Water.
Seattle, Wash., Oct. 10.—At two
o'clock this afternoon, thirteen min-
utes before the scheduled time, the
battleship Nebraska left her ways at
Moran Brothers shipyard in this city
and sailed gracefully and majectically
into the waters of Puget Sound. The
launching was entirely successful and
i-tle Upon Which the Pacts of no hitch marred the proceedings. The
only reason the vessel was launched
ahead of time was that, by a slight
miscalculation the poppet (a wooden
brace) at the bow was raising the ves-
sel too high and in the opinion of ex-
perts it was better that the supports
be knocked away without delay.
Fully 50,000 people viewed the cere-
monies and saw the big vessel slip
While General Kuropatkln has con-
tinued to advance his entire front
Naval men who viewed the launching
stated that it was the most success-
ful they ever saw.
The Nebraska weighs more than
any vessel ever before launched in
the United States Navy. Immediately
after the launching the big Alaska
liners that hovered about her with
decks black with excursionists,
looked diminutive beside her.
Miss Mary Main Mickey, the daugh-
ter of Governor Mickey of Nebraska,
christened the vessel.

pectation is that a battle of magni-1
tude must be fought within a few!
days. It is believed that the Japanese !
will make a stand at Liao Yang. Sev-
eral positions oast of that place have j
been abandoned by the Japanese.
At S*. Petersburg it has been sur-
mised that Field Marshal Oyama's I
forces have been weakened by the I
dispatch of troops to aid General Nogi,
to take Port Arthur and that this has !
afforded General Kuropatkln an open-
ing to recover land lost during the
month of August.
Sr. Petersburg, Oct. 12.—A battle
upon which the fate of this year's
campaign in Manchuria depends
seems only a few days ahead. Advic-
es from the front are meager. All
that is positively known is that Gen-!
eral Kuropatkln has cast the die at I
last and is marching resolutely
against the enemy, as if resolved to j
do or to die.
Little light has been thrown upon
the considerations which led General
Kuropatkin suddenly to assume the
offensive, but no word is heard at the
war office intimating that the course
savors of rashness. Officers of the
general staff, while not understand-
ing the heavy task and severest sac-
rifices that are involved in assuming
he offensive nevertheless express ab-
solute confidence that General Kuro-
patkin has found a weak point in the
Japanese armor. Different explana-
ions abound as to the reason for
making the forward movement at
his time. The advance is attributed
o a realization by General Kuropat-
kin of tho difficulty the Japanese have
ucountered in making good their
losses at Liao Yang and replenishing
their supplies and ammunition, or
possibly to the drawing off of the Jap-
anes troops to reinforce General Nogi
in a desperate endeavor to end the
siege of Port Arthur.
Whatever the explanation it is ap-
parent from the hasty manner in
which the Japanese withdrew before
the first show of Russian strength
that their recent ostentatious prepara-
tions for an advance were largely
bluff. The best opinion here is that
tho impending battle is likely to de-
velop with startling rapidity.
It. is reported that the Japanese
have abandoned Sianclian, Saimatze
and Meichoulin, positions east of
Liao Yang.

Slain by a Bear.
Cody, Wvo., Oct. 30.—James Wilson,
and a nephew both from Pennsylvania,
who were traveling in the Yellow-
stone Park, came suddenly upon a
bear in a timbered part of the park,
which attacked them. The boy was
crushed to death and Wilson was so
badly torn and bitten that he died
soon after being rescued by travelers.

peror William with the Japanese
army, sailed on the steamer Sliin-

Wants Cope Returned.
The location of Kuroki's army—as
determined by Russian scouts—places
it between Pennsihu and Bentsiaputze.
This indicates that since the capture
oi Ta Pass, on Sept. 29, the .Japanese
have accomplished a northward move-
ment of about twelve miles. To the
Fouth of Mukden, Nodzu's army is
still near the Yentai hills, while as to
Oku's command the dispatches merely
say that it is "west of the railway."
Outpost fighting is reported near the
Shakhe river, fifteen mile3 south of
Mukden, but there appears to be no
indication of a speedy general engage-
ment.

GOVERNOR ON SCHOCL LANDS |
Says the Republican Party Is In Fa-
vor of Retaining Them
(State Capital March 2, 1904.)
Tin re was a general dlscusi n
around the terrltoiial of I ices ami
among the visitors in the city yester-
day ol' the school land question, and
the action to be tak n by the republi-
cans in their convention April 7. As
to the disp< sal to be made ultimately
of the school lands there was a differ-
ence of opinion, but all were unite 1 ,
in th'it political parties should not ^
dod ,e the issue, but should meet it
squarely, and go b fore the people
ami stand or fall on the merits ol
their declaration.
There was considerable forecasting
of the action to be taken by the two J
parties. The general expression |
was that the Republicans would de-
clare for the i\t *ntl n of the lands t
either permanently or for a period of I
years at least, but there was a big ;
difference of oponion as to the action j
the democrats would take. A part I
think that they will also oppose the I
sale of the 1 :n Is at the present time. ;
and that both parties will go before
the people favoring the retention of i
thel amis. Some are of the oj i i n |
that the democrats will be againsi j
any declaration or plan made by the ;
republicans.
Gov Tnor Ferguson, when asked his j
opinion about the matter, stated that
the republicans of the territory could j
not afford to dodge the issue, and
that it had not been the republican
policy to dodge issues in the past. !
"The republicans should so conduct
themselves that these sh vi'd be no
doubt as to their por,i Irn. In the lone
run platforms are cf " more Impor- 1
tance than candidates. I believe that 1
the republicans should and will de-
clare for the retention of the schooi j
lands."
C. J. .1 nson, for years Indian agent
at White Eagle, and a member of the j
territorial Repubuican central com- i
mittee, was in Guthrie yesterday. 11"
believes that th • re; u >I leans shoul 1
meet the issue squarely, and that
they should adopt a platform oppos-
ing the sale of the school lands. "I
have always been opposed to the sale
if the school lands,' sill Mr. Jenson,
and believe t a th • grett ma s oi!
the people of the territory entertain
tho same bcli f. We should also
change our statehood platform to
meet the changed conditions and rep-
resent as near as possible the true
sentiment of every Oklahoma re-
publican."
Willis J. Conover, former'y of
Woodward county, and well known
over the entire territory, while op-
posed to the pros nt leasing system,
believes that both parties should
meet the issues squarely.
The scheme to throw territorial
lines of Oklahoma around Indian Ter-
ritory anil increase political patron-
age of the republicans does not look
much as though they are sincere In
their promise to promote statehood.
But it is entirely in line with the
charge made by Mr. Mathews that the
federal office holders are balking
statehood at every turn.
Governor Ferguson and other lead-
ers of the party are on record as as-
serting that the republican party of
Oklahoma is opposed to the sale of
school land. Yet Mr. McGuir ■, who
is the nominee of these men, is try-
ing to make the school land lessee be-
lieve that he is in favor of selling
the lands. A lessee who is caught on
hat hook lias not investigated the
aiatter much.
The dishonesty of the federal of-
fice holding machine in Oklahoma in
pretending to be for statehood is all
exposed by their plot to extend terri-
torial government and territorial
graft over th Indian Territory for an
Indelinite number of years. They
3an not be tor statehood and terri-
:oryhood at the same time.
Few attempts have been made by
the opposition to throw mud at Mr.
Mathews, but those have reacted so
strongly that they have made votes
for him. Mr. Mathews is a claan
man, morally, socially, politically
and every other way. This is why he
is impregnable te> vilification.
Who would be the beneHcia. ies c f
continued territorial government?
The republicans. Who would he the
beneficiaries of a state government?
From a political standpoint, the dem-
ocrats. Who, then, will labor earn-
estly to secure statehood? The an-
swer is easy.
The Hamilton bill must pes* at the
coming session of congress or it will
die on March 4. Mr. McGuire holds
his office as delegate until March 4;
if he is honest in his statements he
he will work for his constituents as
long as his salary is paid for doing so.
When federal officials contribute
funds wherewith to secure statehood
and the loss of their jobs the millon-
lum will arrive. But it is not here
yet.
Faced Death With Jest.
It was said of Lord Palmerston that
he never grew old and was as light
hearted as a boy to the very end
When he was on his death bed and
the doctors told him that his time had
come he brightened up for a final jest
"Die, my dear doctor! That's he las!

Nothing more clearly shows the ab-

federal machine than the deadly par-
allel which is bv iug drawn in this
campaign. At the very time Mr.

ed support of statehood, his backers
hold a meeting to plan for contit

One republican paper says that the
democratic proposition to amend the'
Hamilton bill will not do at all, that
amendments will kill it. Another
says the bill can be amended in the
senate easily enough and the objec-
tionable features eliminated. The
supporters of Mr. McGuire should go'
together on this important proposi-
tion so they can make the same kind
of a campaign in different parts of the
territory.

Draw the curtain of night upon in-

oblivion, and let them be aa though
they bad never been.
Mr. McGuire says the democrats
oppose the Hamilton bill when they
suggest amendments of partisan feat-
ures. Will he say that the republi-
cans oppose the bill when their plat-
form demands the incorporation e>f
the "Quay suffrage amendment" in:o
the bill? Call on him to answer.
Japanese "Tea Ceremony."
No servant is ever permitted to
serve tea in a Japanese house. It is
the privilege of the daughter to make
the beverage, while the guest who
has last arrived serves it. The tea is
made fresh for each guest in the same
bowl, which has to be washed and
dried each time, and so tho "tea cere-
mony" is apt to be a long one. It is
probably for this reason that strict
etiquette forbids the presence of more
than five at such tea parties.

Liquefies Illuminating Gas.
A German chemist named Blau has
succeeded in liquefying llluminatin ;

houses, railway trains, etc. It costs
more than ordinary coal gas, but less
than electric light.
Husband of Little Importance.
Among some of the ancient Mexi-
can tribes the husband left his people
and dwelt with his wife's family,
where he seems to have been consld-
of minor Importance.
The republican candidate for con-
gress says that the democrats are op-
posed to the Hamilton bill because
they suggest reasonable amendments.
The republican platform, upon which
Mr. McGuire himself is running for
c ngress, asks for the insertion of
tho "Quay suffrage amendment" into
the Hamilton bill before it is finally
passed. That is not a reasonable
amendment. It is revolutionary and
unprecedented, and seeks to abridge
tlie hitherto unquestioned right of
states to prescribe their suffrage laws*
If the republicans of Oklahoma can,
in their platform, ask congress to
amend the Hamilton bill by attaching
an amendment which opens the way
to negro domination of the state, how
car. t ey consistently offer objection
to the mild democrat c suggestion that
partisan features be eliminated? Let
them answer.

Is it because these federal officials
are anxious to lose their jobs by se-

Hunting in Japan.
The Japanese, always keen sports-

with goshawks and sparrow hawks.

now they are taking to dogs, and
many good animals are being import-
