JAPANESE
TOKIO, Oct. 13.-neld Marshal
Oyama telegraphing from the field
yesterday says operations are pro-
gressing favorably. 5 V
Knropatkhi's advance has net with
a counter advance of the forces under
Oyama. According to advices received
at Tokio, a general engagement is in
progress betwtfB the Liao Yang and
Mukden but reports ; from Bussiaa
sources- describe the fighting there as
merely in the nature of advanee guard
actions.- Kuropatkin is reported as
aiming to strike simultaneously at two
wider separated points on the Japan
ese left.; There, has been hard fighting
a short distance north : of Bensihu, in
which the Bussian loss of 150 "killed or
wounded is admitted, i Tbo Japanese
say they have ent off the Bussian col
umn south of the Taitse river. No of
ficial reports from the front were re
ceived, by the Russian war owe last
night and this fact is regarded in some
quarters as 'indicating non-suecess thus
far of Kuropatkin 'a forward movement.
Military authorities, however, point out
that owing to the magnitude of the
movement planned, it is too early to ex
pect news of decisive results.
' TOKIO, Oct. 12. Beports dispatched
hut night from the scene of battle rag
ing along the extended front of the cen
tral point north of . Yentai westward
across the railroad southeast of Bensi
hu on the Taitse river say the struggle
continued undecisively throughout the
day. The Japanese commanders' avow
ed purpose was to eontjnns the assault
throughout the night and following day.
The Russians have a great foree close
to the Taitse river. Apparently Oya
ma 'a attack was timed to interrupt the
strong turning movement "threatening
Liao Jfang itself. !
The report from the right army says:
The enemy's artillery opened a severe
attack at 10 o'clock on Tuesday at
Bensihu. He is bombarding the points
between Ta Pass and Bensihu. In the
direction of Tumentzu Pass another ar
tillery duel is progressing. : Our detach
ment sent to the left bank of the Tai

POLITICS DULL
ABSOLUTE QUIET BEIGNS IN THE
PBESIDENTIAIf CAMPAIGN
1, IN THIS STATE.
What Is to Be Done Yet Mar Awaken
Things a Little The Coming City
Election and Candidates for 'City Of
fices Yonny Bepoblicans.
..- .'- "- ' tJ : i.."
PoliUcs in Oregon is a very, quiet af
fair r present. In fact there Js abso
lutely nothin. doing at all Jn politics.
Presidential election n-sver, came on' so
quietly before as at this time. Bepub
Ifeans seem to think there can be no
doubt at all of the result, and therefore
are not working. Democrats are in the
same state of , mind and hence care not
to burn their good money trying to
make a campaign where there is no
hope for them to get above the class
"that .also ran." . V
The only people getting any fnn out
of this campaign are the Socialists and
Prohis. ., These latter are not ia itfor
Mr. Swallow, but they are working to
prevent the continuance of the usual
and accustomed swallow from going the
route it has so long and so consistently
traveled.
However, there may be something do
ing yet before the day of election comes
aroun-1. Chairman . naK?r or tne tie
publican State Committee, has publish
ed a large list of spell-binders who may
yet be heard during the few weeks in
tervening, and there ia no telling jwhat
quantities; of enthusiasm they may
cause to rise up-' and ,'say, what's
that." The Young 'Men's Republican
Club and the Salem Roosevelt League
have evidently been resting thinking
that the enormous majorities rolled up
here : in June were full guarantees of
the success of the national ticket in
November, and so they should, provid
ing the vote comes out. k :
But it is said that here is the rub.
Will the vote be sotten . .out. is the
question. The National Committee has
so far transported no great quantity of
funds for carriage hire for the boys
into Oregon. It is like the story told of
the late Joseph Meek who was provis
ional governor at Oregon City. A num
ber of employes of the government. In
cluding some soldiers, were behind in
their pay, and a small quantity of
money having come into Astoria by
ship, was brought to Oregon City,, then
the capital. A number of the "boys"
then, as now, desirous of some of the
neeesssrv needful, marched up to Gov.
Meek and asked for pay. Th old man
looked tbem over kindly, but in a very
disannointed tone remarked:
I'se
vehr sohy, boys. ; but thar's bar'Iy
enough for the officers,; bahly enough
for the officers.' - ... "
So it is in this Presidential . cam
paign so far this year. 'However, there
is a probability that something will be
doing here soon. ; -, ,-.
The city election eoming on in De
cember will make a little difference
soon, and the bora are' beginning to
awaken to the necessities of a little
better organization tbaa they have had
for that -fiwtpign.- It is said that
candidates for the two pricipal city
offices are as thick as fleas on a drfg's
l.ak. .'For marshal the names of half
a dozen men 5 have been mentioned,
among them being the present chair
man of the cornittee on streets in the
council, A. Oesner; the present nieht
watch St. the. cgurt houp, Louis Fob

DO NOT POINT TO SUCCESS, r
LONDON, Oct. 12. The battle rag
ing south of Mukden has revived full
public interest in the war. Peaee-raeal
reports from both sides are discussed
and analyzed in the fullest details, in
the belief that this will prove the great

that Kuropatkin is running a tremen

confirmation of the, report that Miatcb
enko a force is eut off and the fact that
Oyama 's report doe not mention, him
is regarded as pointing to his escape.
At the same time dispatches do not yet

Him in the Fast, and Her Father vVUl
Prciecute Yonng Man.
The following story from yesterday
morning's Oregoniaa will be of interest
here, where the parties arc well known:
"ti F Gsddi, a well-known creamery
man of Med ford, who obtained a li
cense last Saturday afternoon for the
marriage of himself, and Mia Mab'l
Jones, daughter - M. L. Jones, of
Brooks, Marion county, is liable to get
into serious trouble over the affair.
"Miss Jones is the daughter of M.-L
Jones, a wealthy hopgrower. of Mario
county, and an ex-mcmbcr of the Ore
gon legislature. Gaddis asked her to
make him the happiest of mortals a yor
ago by becoming bis wife, and she re
fused "him. "In procuring the license at
the office of County Cb?rk Fields, Cad
dis said his residence was in Douglas
county ami that Miss Jones lived in
Portland. D, J. Durand signed the af
fidavit as a witness, which leaves him
open to a perjury" charge, but it is not
clear under what statute Caddis could
be prosecuted. It cannot be imagined
why he caused the license to be issued
unless his mind is unbalanced, and his
mental condition may be inquired into.
"Ansa Jones" saw notice of the issu
ance of the license in the newspapers anil
immediately- told her father about it.
Mr. Jones rime to Portland yesterdar.
morning and obtained a certified copy
of the marriage antdavit. He will take
legal advice as to what course is best
to. pursue." .
Cause of Lockjaw.
Lockiaw.' or tetanus. Is caused by a
bacillus or germ which exists plentiful
lv in street dirt. It is inactive so lonif
as exposed to the air, but when carried
beneath the skin, as in, the wounds
caused by percussion cats or by rusty
nails, and when the air is excluded the
germ is roused to activity and produces
the most virulent poison known. These
germs may be destroyed and all danger
of lockiaw avoided by applying Cham
berlain's Pain Balm freely as soon as
the injury is received. Pain Balm is an
n IivtiI i nl f mimti ruin, timings and
too like injuries to hal without matur
ation and in one third the time required
by the usual treatment. Sold by ; all
