‘ Hmlso sir stained some casualties If Sr-.bas
' thc liusslans ar; suffering about. as much
produce i and the quantity exported have
doubled within the past eight ycars. The
recent capture of the coal mines at Yan-
iui has given the Japanere the control oi
the or irl fields of Munchuria, and what is
quiie as much to the purruse, ias depriv~
ed i{u~sia of that treat rr quisite.
It is pointed out that the Russians at
Mukdcn have now no available mil sup-
,ply within 1 rlrousanri miles. This in part
accounts for the determined effort of
Kuropatkin io prevent the capture oi the
Yeniai iuinr s. and to retake them from
the Japanese since the latter obtained
porsessiou, But the effort was futile. It
will also lr: remembered that Russia
early iii the war declared coal to be cor.-
traband and this operates to prevent
rieuirrr' vessels attempting to supply the
‘remains of the Ru isian fleet at Viadivos
tock \\'ith that prime requisite.
Tney are now offering high
pr-iccs without effect. Meanwhile the
transportation oi coal over lr ng distances
further taxes the capacity Of the Siberian
Railway upon whose carrying capacity so
rnurb now depends.
The silence of Mr. Blair rcrernblrs the
darkness oi' Eitypt. it can be felt.
Professor Edwin a Gros\'.r-nor of Am.
her stColl1 ge has recerded his opinion that
i the Japanese wllibe beateuin the end._i usi
as the ini ii oi the Gonfa'iir'rt.e Status
and the Boers, equally brrve as the .laps
were beaten.
Don’t hot on thc election for the follow-
, corrupt practice; it makes your opporer'
work the harder, and iinally you may
lmeycurnrtney and wish you had not
taken the chance.
