The Russian ambassador has been obliged to abandon his original intention to answer each of these offers with a per- sonal letter. but a cordial letter of thanks Is sent by the embassy to each writer. The offers are declined as Russia, the ambas- sador says, does not stand in need of mill itary or medical aid.

FAVOR A REVISION
Commission Appointed by President
Recommend Several Changes
In the Land Laws.

The commission appointed by
the president on October %, 1903,
consisting OF W. A. Richards, COM
missioner OF the general land Of
fee; Clifford Pinchot, chief forester
OF the department Of agriculture,
and F, H. Newell. chief engineer OF
the reclamation service, to make
suggestions regarding revision OF
OF the laws relating to public lands,
has made to the president a par
tial report, says a Washington
dispatch, which VIII be sent to
congress
It recommends the repeal of the
timber and stone act and the sub
stitution Of suitable provisions for
selling, after appraisal, the timber
on public lands that is needed in
large or small quantities for in
dustrial purposes
The committee also recommends
the repeal OF the law permitting
assignment OF entries under the
desert land law and urges the i'm
portance Of a more careful admin
istration Of that law, especially as
to those provisions relating to OBJ
tanning an adequate permanent
water supply.
1t advocates the restricting OF
the communication clause OF the
homestead clause of the homestead
entry act where such entries are
located within forest reserves or
where the land is chiefly valuable
for timber.
1t suggests the outline for law
permitting Homestead entries npos
agricultural lands within forest re-
serves, and the survey and descrip-
ton OF such agricultural lands by
metes and bounds rather than by
the regular system, thus permitting
the agricultural lands to be select
ID along the valleys and to en-
brace the good tillable land with
,ut taking extensive tracts OF hill
iide.
The recommendation also is
made that when lands are restored !
o entry after temporary segrega-
ion ample time should be allowed
lomesteadess to exercise their
lights, giving them the preference
'ver persons who may wish to
elect land by the use OF scrip or
ther form OF entry.

LIGHT AND WATER
Power Plant Located and Electrical
Supplies Arriving Wiring the
Court House Commenced.

The Shoshone Light & Water
company filed articles of incorpor-
alton with the county recorder last
week. The company is incorpor-
ated under the laws OF the state of
Idaho with a capital stock OF s40,-
600, the stockholders being F. r.
Gooding, Fred w. Gooding, Thos.
II. Gooding, f. r Gooding trustee,
and Chas. NJ. Hemphill OF Sho
shone, and Robert Hayes Of Poca-
tello. The officers OF the company
are Fred W. Gooding, president,
and Chas. NJ. Hemphill, secretary
treasurer.
The electric plant will be located
upon land owned by the company
below the Millsaps ranch two and
one hall miles from the village,
where a splendid water power has
been secured. The water for power
will be taken from the Little Wood
river some two hundred yards in a
covered ditch and conveyed to the
power plant through a forty inch
pipe, 1000 feet long, to the water
wheel. The power ditch will start
from the river upon land owned by
Frank Millsaps, from whom a right
of way has been secured. The
water will be conveyed to a forty
inch Sampson horizontal turbine
wheel with a capacity of 220 horse
power, which will be connected
with a $50 XIV. generator with a
capacity OF 1000 lights.
The water wheel comes from the
well known Leffel Wheel company, |
while the electrical apparatus is
furnished by the Montana Electric
company and viii be OF the most
approved apparatus made by the
Westinhouse company.
The system which will be in
stalled is what is known as the

vision the plant will be operated,
has arrived. Material for the in
terror wiring OF the court house and

the Salt Lake Tribune. Persons
who usually keep well informed in
regard to new moves in railroad
circles entertain strong suspicious
that such is the case, and the sus-
picion is given color by the fact
that f. e. Calvin, assistant gener-
al manager OF the Short Line, has
taken prominent part in the or
ganization of the new company
Officials OF the railroad who were
seen yesterday deny that the COM
pany is interested, and yet they
display a familiarity with the great
project which would appear almost
significant
A well known electrical engineer
of the city said yesterday:
"There is sufficient water power
convenient to the Short Line rail
road to electrify the entire system,
and it would be practical and feas-
ible to utilize in that way. With
the rapid strides OF the last few
years in long-distance transmission
Of electric power it has become the
cheapest power for railroads to use.
where the means OF generating it Is
at hand. The expense Of making
the change from steam power to
electric power would be consider
able, but the reduced cost OF oper-
ating the new system would make
such change very good invest
ment."
The question is: Would the
Short Line permit such a valuable I
asset to get away? And there
would seem to be but one answer
to the question.

WORLD IS YOURS
IN PICTURE FORM
THE WEALTH OF NATIONS SHOW
HAND IN WORLDS FAIR VIEWS.

There is lots of magic in money: one
likes to hear of great wealth or read
of great wealth; even if it is beyond
possession.
There is always much anxiety to
known how the Vanderbilts, the Goulds
and other individuals of the Coesus
type will divide up the golden store
they can't use "over the river"
And when man is left pot of money
everyone wonders: What will he do
with it,"
Speculation about big sums of money
is, indeed, most engrossing.
For this reason Dumas Count Of
Monte Cristo" is a tale of wonderful
fascination, and when in the play the
prison-worn hero, after his escape from
the sea, plunges up the rocks with
nothing much on him or in him except
a big treasure secret and shouts. THE
world is mine we'll, everyone in the
gallery, at least. believes him and
wondersi Nov, what will he do with
it,"
OF course, he would get even with
his enemies, go to Paris and start a
bank, and become a high roller" gen.
orally.
But, even with the treasures of Monte
CrstO he couldn't have lots of things
enjoyed by the lucky fellows living in
these days; a steam yacht, a phono-
graph or bicycle would have been be-
yond him.
No st. Louis Worlds Fair for him;
not even Kodak" of it, while a mag
nificent collection of Photographic re-
productions, such as this paper is prac-
tically giving away to its readers, could
not have been had for the possession
of the entire contents of his treasure
cave.
Pleasing luXuries, like the Forest
City" series of Worlds Fair Portfolios,
have been preserved for those fortu-
nate enough to be living in these golden
Twentieth Century days; and it is In
deed fortunate to be able to secure such
a possession on terms so easy and so
convenient.
And this paper is also fortunate in
being able to make so rare an Offering.
We desire to again call the attention Of
our readers to the series, so that those
who have not yet inspected the Port
folios may do so, and in order that
those who have secured any Portfolio
will be certain to obtain those that are
to come
Although the regular price of each
Portfolio is % cents. the cost to our
readers is merely nominal; only ten
cents, to cover expense of handling
