FOR HARMONY.

On the 3rd day of August at Sand
point the democratic convention Of
Kootenai county will assemble for the
purpose of placing in nomination a
county and legislative ticket and elect
ing twelve delegates to the Lewiston
convention. Upon the choice of the
convention depends the success of the
ticket at the polls. There is no deny
ing the fact that the defeat of the
ticket two years ago was due to two
causes. Many of the delegates left
the convention hall dissatisfied with
what they eonsiderd piece of job
berry in making the nomination, or at
least part of them. Then there was
factional feeling which detracted
from the strength Of the ticket, not
on account of the nominees entirely,
for most Of them were good men.
The eliminatiOnOf all factions both in
the nomination of the ticket and the
selection of the Genital committee and
of chairman aud secretary of the com
mittee, will be the first step toward
success at the polls. The rank and
lie Of the democracy Of the county
demand return to the principles
and traditions of the party in the
nomination of a ticket that is not the
result of jobbery. They want good
men nominated who will represent
the party aud not faction. With
such ticket every democrat in the
county will take off his coat and work
for its success. \ campaign of this
kind, directed by a person Of execu-
tive ability and sound judgment,
openly and fearlessly fought because
1t represents the right principles, will
win. Ko0teuai county will once more
De classed as democratic, taxes will
be reduced and county warrents again
be sold at par. The Press favors a
new deal all around, but that does
not mean that any democrat should
be ignored or attempts made TO read
any one out Of the party, such as the
feeble effort to get rid of the Press a.
an independent democratic paper
We believe the democrats need all the
votes they can muster, whether they
were born democrats or became such
from conviction aud with a spirit Of
harmony and earuestness prevailing in
support Of the ticket there is no
reason why the party should not
roll up a majority OF 300 instead
Of facing defeat as it did in the last
campaign

For nearly seven hundred years
that has been the law of Englishspeak-

U.s.. WANTS PASSPORTS
RECOGNIZED BY RUSSIA

ST. Petersburg, Aug. 22.-The United
States, government has again formally
proposed to Russia the opening of me-
got,atinns for the unrestricted recogni-
ton Of American passports. In accor-
dance with the law of the empire only
fcrcign Jews of specified classes-nier
chants having business connections with
the country, etc.--are allowed to enter
Russia, hut quite liberal policy has
been pursued in making exceptions to
the rule where legitimate reasons there
fore are given. The exceptions, how
ever, are seldom made in the case Of
Russian Jews who have been naturalized
abroad. The inhibition is not against
the United States alone, but extends to
Jews of every country.
The United States government on sew
eral occasions, especially while Jas. G.
Blaine was secretary of state. sought
to open negotiations regarding this
question, hut the Russian government al
ways declined to begin such negotiations
on tie ground that the question involved
the ei,tire readjustment of the interna-
tional policy Of the empire toward the
Jews

FOREIGN CONSULS HELD
CONFERENCE AT SHANGHAI

Shanghai, Aug. Admiral Stir
ling says the trip Of the American tor
spedo boat destroyer Chauncy from
Woo Sung to Shanghai yesterday was
to carry dispatches. Her movements
had no connections with the arrival OF
the japanese torpedo boat destroyer.
The meeting Of the foreign consuls
here today resulted in the preparation
of statement of facts regarding the
Russian warships Askoid and Grozovoi.
The Russian authorities show dis
inclination to reconsider their refusal
to comply with China's demand that
the two ships leave Shanghai or dis

JAPS INVADE

TORPEDO BOAT SENT INTO
THE HARBOR YESTERDAY
All Kinds Of International Trouble Is
LikIey to Result Unless the Russian
Warships Are Disarmed Great TN
easiness Is Felt.

Shanghai, Aug. 22. - Shanghai was
thrown into fever of excitement Sum
day AFTERNOON by the arrival Of a Jap
anese torpedo boat which was sighted
coming in from the south at 4:3o
O'Clock. She passed the Woosung at full
speed and started up the river Ju for
Shanghai. The United States torpedo
boat destroyer Chauncey, slipped her
cable and followed the Japanese de-
Bstroyer She anchored off the cosn1o-
Epolitan dock where the Russian cruiser
Askold Is undergoing repairs. i The
Chauncey came to anchor practically be-
tween the dock and the Japanese de-
stroyer. A foreign pilot ship reports
having seen a Japanese battleship and
two cruisers sixty miles outside of Woo
Sung. There are at present no Chinese
men of war in this port, but the taotai
has telegraphed that Chinese cruiser
be sent immediately. The Russian con-
sui general here fatty refused to disarm
the Askold and the Russian torpedo
boat destroyer Grozovoi, or to order
them to leave the harbor. ... III.
The taotai has notified American con-
sui Goodnow, who is dean of the con-
sular body, that China cannot protect
the foreign settlements. He contends
that Russia ignores the orders issued
by China and China has not the means
|of making her obpey them. The Con-
sui GoodnoW, has called meeting of
the consular body to take joint action
for the protection of foreign inhabi-
|tants. The Askold has locked ada
cent to the warehouses here of the Stan
|dard Oil Co, which are valued at over
ST 100000. The Standard Oil Co, has
demanded protection for its property
from Consul Goodnow. The dock where
the Askold lies is owned by British in
.terests. On one side of this dock is
German and Dutch property and ON the
other side American property.
There are eight American, one Ger
man. two British and four French
Warships here.

The storm was the most disastrous in
the history Of the city. The streets

The center OF the storm seemed to
follow the Mississippi River from

1.-THE greatest damage was done, and
then to spend its force in the whole
sale district, Dayton's Bluff and north

The Beautiful Weather of Saturday
and Sunday.

A beautiful sky and warm weather
Saturday and Sunday brought vacation
seekers from far and near to this resort.
They came by twos, threes and in
large parties and the largest number of
visitors of the season, exclusive of the
Fourth of July visitors, were here.
The hotels were comfortably filled and
the band and the Cooper battalion with
their splendid military drill in the
afternoon made this resort very much
alive.
The front presented a gala D
ance, the warm weather driving the
visitors to the beach and board walk in
large numbers. All day long the
boardwalk was being promenaded over
by a large number of people, and never
was walking more delightful than it
was Sunday evening.
The bathing could not be called per-
feet, the GOODNESS of the water had the
effect of keeping most of those bent on
bathing On the beach or boardwalk.
However, there were a few who braved
the dashing breakers.
