They Reach Athens After a Journey Of
Hardship and Suffering.
ATHENS, Dec. s. The Associated
Press exclusively has been able to give
to the world the facts Of the terrible
atrocities perpetrated upon Armenian
Christians in Asia Minor and Monday
a representative Of the Associated Press
succeeded in obtaining additional de-
tails confirming the statements previ-
ously made The representative met
20 Armenian refugees who arrived here
from Armenia after journey full of
hardships and suffering. Securing the
services of a first class interpreter, he
questioned them concerning the terri
BILE events of which they had in num-
ber of cases been eye-witnesses.
This party of Armenians is the first
that has escaped from the districts
where the massacres occurred, and it is
believed that even worse remains to be
told as the horrors recorded are under
stood to have lasted for long time
after this party fled. The number of
villages devastated is said to be over 50.
The Armenians fed in every direction,
but many of them were captured by
the Turkish troops before they could
get away and were taken to prison.

KIMBERLY'S KICK.

Protest of the English Secretary to the
Sultan Likely to BE Needed.
LONDON, Dec. 5.-The Times says it
believes that the Earl of Kimberly, sec.
retary Of state for foreign affairs, has
made energetic representations to the
porte to the effect that the Ratter's Or
der to the Turkish commission to make
a searching inquiry into the Armenian
massacre was not enough, as the re-
port of purely Turkish commission
would not inspire any public conf
dence. The Times adds that the sui
tan has now come to recognize this
simple truth and is reported to be ready
to admit an independent element to
form part Of the commission.
Continuing, The Times says: "In
the interests of truth and justice, we
trust that this report is we'll founded"

tive Lynch Of Wisconsin has prepared
bill which he will introduce in few
days to relieve the settlers who were
burned out during the disastrous fires
in the Northwest last summer. This

date prescribed by law or else pre-empt
them. In this case they could cut and
use the timber which they cannot do
at the present time.

INTERPRETING MINING LAW.
4 Case of Great Importance in the Fed
eral Supreme Court.

Case of Great Importance in the Fed.
eral Supreme Court.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-The action of
granting this petition Of the Last
Chance Mining company, for a writ
of certiorari in the case Of the Last
Chance company versus the Tyler
Mining company, will have the effect
of transferring to this court litiga-
ton which has attracted much atten-
ton in the state Of Idaho in the past
five or six years. This case has not
only become important because of the
large va ues involved, but also because
Of the questions in mining law which
it raises. Among these questions, the
most consequential probably is as to
the rights Of mining claimants to follow
their lodges beyond the lines Of their
claims into the claims Of their neigh
bors. The Tyler company denied the
right to follow it's lodges beyond the
vertical lines into the Last Chance ter
ritory, and brought suit to enjoin the
latter company from taking out ore
which, while within its territory, was
in the ledge having It's shape in the
Tyler claim.
Tried in Many Courts.
The case has been tried in several
state and federal courts. The last de-
cision which was rendered was by the
circuit court of appeals for the Ninth
circuit. which court sustained the con-
tention Of the Tyler company. Ordi.
narily, the decisions Of the circnit
courts of appeals are final, but the
supreme court has the option of re.
viewing, which it has now de.
cided to do in the case, and it will
be argued in that tribunal and
still another decision made before all
the mooted questions are decided. The
Tyler company contends that of the ore
extracted by the Last Chance company
5000, 900 worth properly belonged to it.
while the Last Chance company sets ul
that it has expended upwards Of $700,
900 in the development of the ore bodies
which are now claimed by the Tyle1
company, before the trial o1
this case. and had expended upwards
OF 100000 in their development worl
before any claim was ever made
against them on the part of the Tylel
company. The Last Chance company
is represented by w. B. Hepburn ant
G. S. Voorhees,, and the Tyler com
pany by Senator Dolph and J. R. Nc
Bride.

GOOD WILL AND GOOD WORKS,

Talk for your town; help to put confidence
and enterprise on top by showing these things
yourselt-WoodlandM Mail.
That is good advice; but the latter por-
ton suggesting works" is the cream of
it. The truth is, every man owes the
town of his residence good will and good
works. and he never can wholly dis
charge the debt.
He who stands aside and leaves to
others all duty doing in public affairs is
only half citizen. 1t is not the name,
location, commerce or wealth of a city or
town that wins it the esteem of men; but
the public spirit of its citizens, their
readiness to do unofficial civic duty;
their pride in their surroundings, out of
which they grow betterments for their
environment, and thus augment the
pleasures of life while satisfying the de-
mand of their conviction that every man
every day owes good will and good
works to the town of his home.
The record-union. [volume] (Sacramento, Calif.) 1891-1903, 1894-11-21

WE observe that the plea of illegal
garbage dumping is that the offenders
did not know there was an ordinance on
the subject. And is it any wonder? The
Trustees did not publish the new law in
the press-the best, first and only econ
omic method Of making local enactments
widely public. But the Trustees propose
to correct it all now; the garbage ordi-
nance is to be printed in handful style
and stuck up on alley corners. Here is
progress for you in the latter days of the
nineteenth century! Let all citizens who
run now stop to read at every posted
dodger, since who knows that he may
not be innocently transcending some of
the laws of our local legislature? This
new regulation is godsend for dodger
advertisers, since they can with their
posters occupy the same billboards and
dead walls with the posted ordinances.
and thus compel citizens to read the lot
in order to sift out the chaff and get at the
wheat. Live the bill-sticker! By the
way. why not create the Office of official
dodger poster? There might be further
saving in 1t.
