of Mancho rule. At noon, when S000
Chinese gathered tor the celebration,
not a queue was seen.
Many of the Chinamen also shook off
their sandals, and In heary American

The holstlnr of an enormous flaa- of
the new republic on top of the old Jose

which would hare done credit to any
American football crowd.
"Chun Hua, Chuns; Hua. Hoola.

the Chinatown district.
Chinese srtrls and boys, dressed In
American fashion, sans; a new Chinese

the Chinese Republic." to the air of
"America."
The sentiment of the sons;
something as follows:
"Dr. Sun Tat Sen has town the seed
and rrown the republic All of the
Chinese should be patriots of one heart,
one love, and one life for their country
and liberty and freedom. Manchu rule
Is none and the Chinese shall remain

RF.PVBLICAX MAKES ERROR
Moh Depend Vpon Whether Fight
ing at Hankow Was Authorized.
PKKI.V. Jan. 1. Dispatches from
Hankow say the flKhtln there between
the revolutionists and the Imperialists,
which was begun Sunday evening, was
renewed this morning by the liepub
I leans. :0 miles up the river, who bad
not yet received notice of the promul
gation of an armistice.
The Republican commander ordered
the fighting to cease, but a desultory
gun fire was heard throughout the day.
Much depends upon whether the
fighting near Hankow was authorized
by the Republicans and whether It will
be folowed out by the Republlcana or
Imperialists. The Associated Press Is
Informed that the news of the attack
mas welcomed by Yuan Shi Kal. who
will now await the issue. If tho Im
perialists are victorious it will give the
throne a brief lease of life, while a re
verse to the Imperialists. It Is said,
would precipitate the abdication of tho
Kinperor.
The Dally News, the organ of the for
ricn office, proposes In an article
printed today that the Republicans and
ImprrialiKta save the country from
anarchy by forming a united govern
ment, which shall control affairs until
an assembly can be elected and deter
mined whether the country shall be
nix'le Into a republic or a monarchy
This Indicates even Tuan Sbl Kai's
flread of partitioning of the mplre.
There Is little doubt that he prefers
the abdication of the Kmperor to this.
Tang Shao Yl. Tuan Shi Kal"s repre
sentative at Shanghai, has tendered his
resignation as a peace delegate, but
Yuan has refused to accept it.
It is said the reaaon the Imperial
Princes have refrained from donating
Urge sums of money to aid the gov
ernment Is that they felt the govern

TAKIS. Jan. 1. A special dispatch

lieralJ from lis Pektn correspondent
avs that Yuan Shl Kal. the Premier,
will present to the throne tomorrow a
signed demand of all the commanders
of the northern army that the wealth
of the Princes and nobles be com
mandeered to continue the war.
The memorial characterizes the dic
tatorial attitude of the revolutionists
as unbearable, expresses loyalty to the
monarchy and a desire to fight the Is
sue to a finish. It Insists that unless
the Princes contribute they shall he

the memorial is rejected by the throne.
Yuan Shl Kai will Insist that his resig

! TIMBER GAMBLING IS HIT
sorest Service Would Pnt End to
', Speculation.
V ASHINOTON. Jan. I. Kf forts by
the Forest Service to prevent specula
tion In Government timber and to pre
trct the public against monopoly prices
are shown In a new plan which has
been adopted for making timber sales
la National forest a This plan provides
for periodic revision of stumpags
1 prices.
In view of the general upward ten
dency of stumpsge prices, forestry offi
cial, say that long-continued contracts
base.! on present prices would be a
fctrona Incentive to speculstlon.
- The first bids advertised under the
new plan are for .3.000 00 board feet
In the Tahoe National Forest of Cali
fornia, with a ten-year period In which
It all must be cut. This deal will in
volve the construction of 20 miles of
railroad.
During the past fiscal year more
than i30.000.000 board feet of National
forest timber were sold, and this year.
It Is estimated, will show a consider
ably higher total.
The National Forests contain a vast
supply of merchantable Umber, esti
mated at the equivalent of over 60S
billion feet, board measure, a great
part of which is rips for the ax or
already over-mature. In many cases,
however, the purchaser has to make a
heavy Initial Investment in transporta
tion facilities. To have this pay. he
must be able to figure on a large
operation, requiring a number of years,
to carry through.
The Tahoe sale calls for the con
struction of 20 miles of railroad, which
will be a common carrier and there
fore decidedly beneficial to the com
munityanother reason for making
the sale which Is taken Into account.
A minimum price of II 60 a thousand
feet for yellow ptne. the amount of
which is estimated at 2.000.000 feet,
snd also for sugar ptne. and of Jl a
thousand feet for all other species. Is
sieclfled In the advertisement.

Agitation to Continue Cntil Next
"OTember In Nearly 100 Cities
in State la Announced.
SPOKANE. Wash.. Jan. Special.)
Almost Immediately after January" 1
festivities have subsided and while
New Tear's "never again" oaths are
still fresh and unbroken, the Anti
Saloon League will start a state cam
paign that will end nxt November.
This year Is different from all previ
ous ones in that all local option elec
tions will be held simultaneously on
the regular election day In November.
A locality that votes "wet" this year
must remain so until November, 1914,
and the same applies to territory that
may be added to the dry column this
year.
Lewis R. Horton, Eastern Washing
ton, superintendent of the League, esti
mates that next November from 90 to
100 towns and cities will vote "wet"
or "dry." Spokane may be one of these.
"We will try to turn the 'wet' towns
dry1 wherever we have a . fltrhtlng
chance." said Horton today. "The sa
loon and brewery Interests will try to
turn the 'dry towns "wet wherever
they have a fighting chance.
"Both sides know that the fight wll
be a hard one. We cannot expect to
carry on fights In 90 or 100 places at
once and win them by two weeks ac
tivity before the elections, so we are
going to start a campaign at once.
"Whether we will try to put Spo
kane In the "dry column will depend
entirely on the attitude of the church
people. If they want to start a cam
naiirn to make this city 'dry and will
stay behind us, we will make the fight.
"If the churches are not anxious to
change the status here we will not at
tempt to force the Issue."
HATES HANG ON DECISION
Controversy Over Government Con
trol to Be Settled.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 1. To straighten
out some of the kinks In the Jurisdiction
of the new Commerce i ourt ana oi tne
Interstate Commerce Commission will
be one of the first tasks to confront the
Supreme Court when It convenes Jan
uary a. This decision may foreshadow
the ruling of the court In the famous
Intermountaln rate cases In which the
Commerce Court and the Interstate
Commerce Commission are at odds. Tnat
rase does not come before tne court un
til February 19.
One of the ticklish problems for tne
Sunreme Court to decide Is whether the
Commerce Court has power to review
decisions from the Commission In which
the complaining shipper ts denied re
lief. .It has been argued that the court
la open only to a defeated railroad,
though the court has ruled otherwise.
Another cause of contention to De
reviewed bv the Supreme Court Is the
assertion by the Commerce Court of
power to hold up the Commission s or
ders, while It reviews their merits. This
particular point will be argued when
the Supreme Court reviews the action
of the Commerce Court In enjoining
temporarily the enforcement of the
Commission's order baaed on discrim
ination by railroads In favor of Ar-
burkle Broa, sugar refiners. The
Commission found the railroads were
discriminating against shippers In al
lowing Arburkle Bros, compensation
for lightering its sugar across isew
York harbor, but not allowing a like
compensation to the Federal Sugar
Company.

The great success of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery in curing weak stomachs, wasted bodies, weak
lungs, and obstinate and lingering eoughs, is based on
the recognition of the fundamental truth that "Golden
Medical Discovery" supplies Nature with body-building,
tissue-repairing, muscle-making materials, in con
densed and concentrated form. With this help Nature
supplies the necessary strength to the stomach to digest
food, build up the body and thereby throw off lingering
obstinate coughs. The "Discovery" re-establishes the
digestive and nutritive organs in sound health, purines
and enriches the blood, and nourishes the nerves in
short establishes sound vigorous health.
