BATTLE AT MukDEN.
Steady Japanese AdvaBce Forecasts
Another Big Conflict.


ST. PETERSBURG, Sept. "a. = A
dispatch received here from Mukden
gives details of the japanese positions
as follows: General Kuroki has con-
centrated one army with BentsiaputZe
and Bensihu as its radius, and his adj
vance is pushing forward along the
road leading to Fushun and Flu Pass
The advance forces of the other two
armies occupy the Yentai mines, the
village of Yentai and Sandenu. The
front of these three armies is pro
tected by an outpost screen, which
Chinese are not allowed to pass. A
small Japanese detachment is moving
along the left bank of the Lao river
in order to protect jHnks.
The same dispatch reports that Chi
nese bandits are openly siding with
the japanese.
The weather at Mukden is rainy and
windy, and cold has prematurely sci
in.
The military authorities at Mukden
continue to express the belief that n
battle will be fought near Mukden
within few days; but, on the other
hand, the Chinese profess confidence
that active hostlities are remote.

A WORD TO THE VERY WISE.

In his autobiography Herbert
Spencer tells how his friends picked
out a girl for him to marry and how
he was not attracted to her because
she was too intellectual. He
goes on to explain that by this he
mears she had "a small brain in a
state of intense activity
What an admirable description
this is Of many tiresome and
repellant wonderland men. The
physical fussy are bad enough; but
those little-minded people with a
few facts, usually not especially
interesting, sizzling and bubbling
how we fly from them. They
are the people who take course at
college to heart. If they are women
they do not marry easily, and when
they do, their husbands have an
expression that moves friends to
commiseration. If they are men
they move through life viewing the
backs of their fleeing fellows.
The moral of this is-if you
know that you are very, very wise
and superior have pity on the
ignorant and common herd of your
fellowmortals and keep your know
ledgea profound secret. Saturday

Triumphs of Modern Surgery.

Wonderful things are done for
the human body by surgery.
Organs are taken out and scraped
and polished and put back, or they
may be removed entirely; bones
are spliced; pipes take the place Of
diseased sections of veins; antiseptic
dressings are applied to wounds,
bruises. burns and like injuries
before inflammation sets i'll, which
causes them to heal without
maturation and in one third the
time required by the old treat
ment. Chamberlain's Pain Balm
acts on this same principle. 1t is
all antiseptic and when applied to
such injuries. causes them to heal
very quickly. 1t also allays the
pain and soreness. Keep bottle
of Pain Balm in your home and it
will save you time and money, not
to mention the inconvenience and
suffering which such injuries entail

ming to talk of retaining her land
BY the million acres as though it
was merely matter of course. Ida
no has two very great advantages
over any other of these intermoun
tain states She has great deal
of land convenient to two or three
great rivers, then much of her land
is 1000 fee1 lower in altitude than
the average valley land in sur
rounding states, making her crops
especially her fruit, more certain
of bringing a return for work.
When Idaho succeeds in retaining
all her land that is possible to re-
claim she will have more lard under
cultivation than all New England
has, more than the total area of
Vermont, Massachusetts, Con-
necticut and Rhode Island And
she will be one of the great mining

ROOSEVELT AS A FACTOR.


Congressman French in his re
view of the work done for Idaho in
the way of securing national aid
for our big irrigation projects voices
the sentiment that many other
western members have that the
irrigation projects in the west are
always sure of the warm support of
President Roosevelt.
The irrigation bill in the first
place was made law under the
strong recommendation of the presi-
dent. Eastern senator's and con-
gressmen do not understand the
needs OF the west as the president
understands it and they looked at
all times with suspicion upon the
expenditures of such vast sums of
money for the reclamation of arid
lands. But III the president the
representatives of the west find and
eager and enthusiastic helper. His
influence is always to be counted
on i'll the furtherance of irrigation
developments and the states favored
by national aid owe much to the
presidents sympathetic help an
untiring energy i'll the conduct of
the department.
The work is gigantic it is one of
the great things that the govern
ment has aSSaVed TO do The
results are far-reaching and of a
premanance that will add grea,
material wealth to the nation.

Parker, Idaho, Tune 7, 10

Parker, Idaho, June 7, 1904.
Editor Teton Peak In your issue
of June 2, the following item of
news occurs i'll your correspondence
from Parker "The fellow from
Parker who got shot in the leg at
St. Anthnoy, is getting better.
When bad men and bad whisky
and six shooters get together some
one is liable 10 get hurt. The peo-
pie of Parker have no sympathy
for that class of mankind. =
The foregoing presumably refers
to my son Noel, who got shot or
stabbed in the leg at St. Anthony
about that time, and the inference
IS that he is bad man who carries
gun, etc. Now, l say to the
fellow who wrote the cowardly
Islander, that Noel is not bad man
and that he was entirely unarmed
the day he got hurt which can be
proven by many reliable witnesses
both in Parker and St. Anthony.
The fellow who wrote the infamous
insult had better give his erudite
overails all extra hitch, constitute
few much needed reforms in his
own family and conhne himself to
reporting births and deaths, and
the study of common decency, so
he can report an item of news with
out insulting his neighbors. If the
fellow wants to fling dirt at any
member OF my family through the
public press, let him come out like
man and do SO over his own
signature and give me chance to
meet him half way. The fellow
also comes out with the brazen as
sumption that the people of Parker
are as narrow minded and arbitrary
as himself, but in this he is very
much mistaken, the people of Par
ker fully realize that they have
occasion to exercise a great deal of
charity toward those who have a
craving for bad whisky, and they
are too broadminded to withhold
their sympathy from the unfortu.
nate, no matter in what manner or
under what circumstances they
may have become such.
Yours very truly,
