THINKS THE JAPs WILL WIN.
re WarliIee and Courageous Than
the Chinese.

CDR. NJ. A. Scott. Of Laramie, Wyo., is
fry much interested in the war between
hina and Japan. In 1882 The doctor was
Wing in Japan and a year later resided
China. In speaking of the orientaIs to
boomerang reporter, he said: Il think
te laps viii whip the Chinese as they are
more warlike and courageous race Of
Jeople than the Chinese The vessels of
their navy are better. better equipped
ard better manned. The Japanese are
very fine people and clean, neat and
hCspitable. They are intelligent and fine
ccnversationalists. While they are good
business people there is one very remark
able fact snd that is that IN every jap
AneEe banking house and commercial es-
fl,6iishment you will find a Chinese cash

Chinese people are the greatest people on
earth in detecting counterfeit money and
counting money. Toxic the largest city
in Japan, is a beautiful place The whole
of Japan is like a beautiful flower garden.
The rice fields are cultivated down to
the very water edge. Like China they
are behind the times in some things

before the governors determination
respecting the senatorship had been an
nounced, is still in the field. He has
the united support of his home delega-
ton from Idaho county and portion
of the Nez Perez delegates are also
understood to favor him. Throughout
the south he has scattered support, the
whole making a respectable following
which might be used to advantage in
the event of unforeseen complications
Mr.. Fem has always been one of the
trusted lieutenants of Senator Shoup
a circumstance that gives him latent
strength, the possibilities of which, in
an emergency, cannot be intelligently
estimated. In addition, there is a dis
position among friends of candidates
for other places on the ticket to build
/ up following for Mr.. Fem to be used
as political club in the maneuvors for
position in the convention contests
Some other candidates for the governor
ship have been suggested, among them
eX-Mayor Pinney, of Boise; George A.
Manning, of Post Falls, and r. II. Bar
| ton, of Moscow.
| Outlook For Others.
| There is no serious opposition to the
nomination Of Edgar Wilson, of Boise,
for Congress. There has been some
|
| this nomination for that section, and
some of the delegates from Bannock
county have put forward F. ]. Mills
member of the last legislature, as a
candidate. Mr.. Mills has the six dele
gates from Cassia county instructed
for him, but a large majority of the
delegates from his home county favor
Mr.. Wilson, his candidacy thus being
SO seriously handicapped that there is
no possible hope for him.
In all probability the liveliest confess
in the convention will be over the nomi
nation of state treasurer. w. G. Hill
the present incumbent, H. N. Coffin ant
Joseph Peeroult, of Boise, end G. Bunt
ing, of Blackfoot, are in the field fol
this place. The fight seems to be be
tween the two latter Mr. Hills only
chance being as a compromise between
them. Mr.. Bunting is very wealthy
man, being a banker and practically
controlling that business in the south
eastern portion of the state. Mr.. COT
fin is the assistant cashier of the FRS
National bank of Boise and has thu
strong support of that great institu
ton.

YELLED IN MYSTERY
What Was it Brought the ROyaIist's
ENJOYS From Hawaii to Americas
The Query That is Puxzling the
SnIOnS.

Washington Aug. There is some
aEimosity manifested in congressional
circles to know the exact purpose Of the
visit Of Messrs. Parker, Cummins and
Wideman, the royalist ENJOYS from
Hawaii
While they talked with various mem
bers Of Congress- they haven't confided
to anyone a definite impression Of the
ends which they hope to accomplish by
their mission.
In general way they have reviewed the
various wrongs attending the overthrow
of the monarchy from their standpoint,
and they have complained of the inter-
ference of Mr.. Stevens, who. they say,
brought about their downfall. They repre-
sent that the present government cannot
be considered republic, and are not sat
isfed with the attitude of Mr.. Willis,
who is said to be as friendly to the Amer
lean element as was his predecessor. But
they do not ask the Americans to do any
thing in behalf OF the deposed queen, nor
dc they state definitely why they are
here One of the two objects is suggested
by members of Congress to have brought
the delegation; to urge the administra-
ten to carry out its abandoned attempt
to restore the queen, or make arrange
rents for pecuniary redress for her; The
commissioners have expressly. disclaimed
either of these purposes. and their OBJ
! iects are yelled in mystery.

London, Aug. IAN extraordinary
gazette has been issued, containing
proclamation by the queen. of Great
Britain's neutrality in the war between
China and Japan.
There is also published in the gazette
a letter from the Earl of Kimberly TO
the lords of the admiralty, setting
forth the rules to be observed at the
various British ports and harbors. A
belligerent man-of-war must leave
British waters within twenty-four
,x,h0urs after its arrival there, unless the
weather or the necessity of taking on
coal or provisions prevents. In the
event Of a Chinese and a Japar 7se YES
sci being in British port tcse her an
interval of twenty-four hours must
elapse between the departure of two
vessels.

EarIy Conc1usion Looked For,

Washington, Aug. THE tariff con-
ference today was entirely subordina-
ted to the House caucus and was devoid
Iof interesting features.
The conferees held two brief sessions
during the day and discussed the coal
and iron ore questions besides reverting
to the sugar schedule. The talk. how
ever served to no purpose except to
lemphasize the fact that the disagree
ment is still unbroken and that very
little, if any, progress is being made
There are some indications that an
iearly conclusion of the conference may
| be brought about. One of these is found
lin the fact that Senator German has
been making careful investigation of
| the status of the bill in case a report
Ishould be made. Certain of the con-
Iservative senators have been very i'm
jpatient of the delay in the conference,
and it is known resolution discharg-
ling the conference from further consid-
ieration of the bill was drawn up by one
of them on Monday, and would have
been presented on that day, but for an
interference of members of the confer.

A CHINESE CAPTIVE.
1t is Alleged IA Japnese Trading Bark
Has Been Captured.

London, Aug. IA dispatch from
Tuen says a Chinese cruiser has
captured a Japanese trading bark and
taken her to Taku. All pilots have
been warned not to guide Japanese
vessels, or to give them any informa-
f8bn as to the waters OF the coast.
- a copy of a Japanese edict issuing
The declaration of war has been re-
I ceived by the Central News CORES
pondent in Shanghai. 1t says the local
authorities will be held responsible for
the lives and property of the Chinese
subjects remaining in the several dis
tricts.
The Russian officials in Shanghai
say Russian trade suffers too severely
from the war to interfere. Russia
movements are watched very closely
by Japan, because of the report Of a
RusSian-Chinese entente.
The weather on the China sea is so
rough that all the latter's vessels have
been driven to shelter.
The japanese cruisers are supposed
TO be concentrated at Chemulpo.

COLORED CAMP MEETING.
There Was an Exciting Finish at the
End of the Week.

Munice, Ind, Aug. THE colored camp
meeting which has held the boards at
the tabernacle in the fair grounds for

The Rev. Jason Bundy, colored, was in
charge of the meeting He had engaged

singers were paid s25, but when they de-
handed the rest, Bundy refused ef ,e to set set

COKE STRIKERS NOT WANTED.
If Japan Needs Aid She Will Call
Upon Germany.

Washington. Aug. Information re-
ceived at the japanese legation is that
Mr. Sinichiro Kurino, the new minister
to this country, will leave Japan today
for his new post of duty. He is ex-
pected here the latter part of the
month.
The legation has not yet had any
communication from Valentine Now
acki, the leader of the foreign forces
of the Pennsylvania coke strikers, who
proposed TO offer to raise 5000 soldiers
for use in the war against China 1t is
pretty safe to say that while Nowacki's
pffer will be duly appreciated, yet ii
would be promptly declined.

mahded the cruiser Baltimore for the
4, aG<st two years, has returned here on a
atxo months leave Of absence, having
%ieft the Baltimore at Chemulpo, Corea,
July u. He regards the Oriental war
as an Unequal contest with odds largely
in favor Of Japan, which, he says, has
a splendid navy and an army as we'll
organized as that of any European
country. Japan, he thinks. is sure to
win. unless China is given time to
make war preparations on a gigantic
scale. In his opinion the japanese
government has been endeavoring to
force the war in order to detract at

FIREWATRR AND REDSKINS.
whisky May Be Sold to Indians Who
Have Been Allotted Lands in Sew

Portland, Ore. Aug. Judge Bellinger,
this morning, rendered an important de-
cision in the cases of Thomas Hawkes.
ard Edward Kline, charged with selling
LIQUOR to Indians. He decided that the
allotment of lands in severalty to Indians
had the effect of removing them from I'M
der the charge of Indian agents, and gave
them the standing of American citizens.
AS such, the United States laws govern
ing Indian wards of the government do
not apply to them, and the selling Of
lidror to an Indian who is not in charge
of an United States Indian agent is not
punishable under the United States
statutes.
The decision has as a precedent in the
opinion of Judge Hanford. delivered IN an
Indian case of another character IN lSs2
but it is the first decision to this effect
