AMERICA NOT FRIGHTENED.
1t Expects No Trouble Over Sending Con-
suIs to Manchuria.

Washington, Jan. 27.-Count Cas-
sini, the Russian ambassador, had a
long talk today with Mr.. Loomis, act
ing secretary of state, on the Far East
ern situation. The ambassadors ad-
vices gave some hope of peace, though
the phase of the question which re-
ceived most attention was the uncon-
tradicted statements which have ap-
peared in certain newspapers regard
ing the attitude of this government.
The Russian government, of course,
could not presume to question the pre-
vious assurances received from this
country regarding its neutrality because
of any newspaper publication, but the
recurrence of these statements has
proved annoying.
There is no anticipation on the part
Of this government of any hitch in the
reception of our consuls in Manchuria.
The evidence of approval of the COM
mercial treaty which Russia has given
convinces the state department that
the consuls will receive every courtesy.

Asiatics are Wanted.

johannesburg, Jan. PA monster
petition signed by As, 100 white male
adults in the Transvaal, requesting the
passage of law providing for the i'm
portation of Asiatic labor into the col
ony, will be presented to the legislative
council by Sir George Farrar, chairman
of the East Rand Proprietary group of
mines. 1t is claimed that as the total
white male population of the Trans
vaal is so 900, and as $4,000 govern
ment employees did not sign the'pe-
tition, it represents the views of 20 per
cent of the white residents.

SALE OF EASTERN OREGON PINE.
Seven Thousand Acre Tract VIII Be
Held for Higher Prices.

La Grande-One of the largest tim
Der deals made in Oregon for some time
was that to George Palmer by Robert
Smith, president of the La Grande ma
tional bank, of the white pine tract
known as the Stanley lands, about 25
miles from La Grande. This piece of
land comprises about 1000 acres, and
was sold at near the 5000, 900 mark.
Near this land is situated the Elgin
lumber company plant, which was in
cluded in the sale. This company was
organized in May, 1902, and has been
closely connected with the development
OF lumber industries in Eastern Oregon.
The annual output of this plant av-
erages 10000, 900 feet of lumber. which
found ready market as far east as Mil
waukee and Chicago. The tract of tim
Der is one of the finest in Eastern Ore
gon, and consists principally of pine of
unusual height and size, standing upon
comparatively level ground.
At some future time an extension of
the o. R. & N. from its present termi-
nus at Elgin will tap this section and
develop large industry in numbering,
and when the land has been cleared of
timber it will still be valuable for agri-
cultural purposes.
Mr.. Palmer, the purchaser, states
that he bought these lands as an invest
ment, and will not manufacture this
timber, but will hold it for increased
stumpage. He is banker from the
state Of Iowa, and is very favorably i'm
pressed with Oregon, and will likely To-
cate here in the near future.

HAPPENINGS HERE IN OREGON
LOOK FOR WATER OUTLET.
BoOth-Kelly Company May Build Road
to Suislaw HarbOr.


Eugene-Rumors here to the effect
that a railroad to the Siuslaw harbor is
to be one of the enterprises of the
Booth-Kelly company have gained some
credence from the fact that cruisers
have been at work in the timbered re.
gions west of here. The company
denies any intention of such an under.
taking.
The belief is general that they would
like to get possession of some OF the
good timber on the coast slope and be
in position to compete for business by
means of water freights, but nothing
definite has been done on that line as
yet. The annual meeting of the stock.
holders is to be held next week and
may result in some steps toward devel-
oping business along the coast slope,
but nothing is looked for before that
time.
There is no doubt the interior mills
all feel keenly the handicap under
which they are laboring as compared
with mills to which water transporta.
tion is accessible.

VALLEY FILLING UP.
Advertising the willamette Has Brought
Many to Oregon.


Salem-The advertising which has
been carried on in the Middle West in
the last two years for the purpose Of at
tracing homeseekers to Oregon seems
to have produced good results. Not
for many years has real estate been as
active as it is now, and still greater ac-
tivity is expected before the close of
the present year.
There is no blind rush to buy land,
and no effort is being made to "boom"
this sectionsof the valley, but many
sales of farm lands have been made to
people who are pleased with this
country and have money to invest in
permanent homes. Though most of
the sales have been made at prices but
little above those asked three or four
years ago, the increased activity is
tending to raise values, thus giving the
realty market strong tone.
In the different localities of the Will
annette valley land may be found in
any stage OF improvement. There are
thousands of acres of land that still
bear a heavy growth of timber, fit to
be made into fuel. There are thous.
ands of acres of land from which the
timber has been removed and upon
which the decsying stumps still stand.
Lying alongside these unimproved lands
are farms upon which grain, hay, fruit.
hops, livestock, poultry and vegetables
of superior quality are grown. 1t is
upon these lands that dairyman can
support COW to the acre, that hop
growers and prunegrowers have pro-
duced crops in one year sufficient to pay
for the land upon which they grew.

Merging Sugar Factories.

La Grande-Word comes from Og-
den, Utah, to the effect that there will
be consolidation of all sugar fac
tories in the three states in the near
future, which is considered very prob
able. Should it take place it would
mean the consolidation of eight fac
tories, as follows: The Ogden, Logan,
Utah, and La Grande, Oregon, fac
tories of the Amalgamated sugar
company, the factories at Lehi and
Garland, Utah, and the Lewiston,
Idaho Falls and st. Anthony factories
in Idaho.

Washington, Jan. ga belated re-
port has been received at the state de-
partment from United. States Minister
Beaupre, at Bogota, upon the monetary
law of Colombia, which was passed by

sion. The bill provides that the none
tary unit shall be the gold dollar of the
United States; that future emission Of
paper money be prohibited; that in
the departments and provinces where
silver has hitherto been current coin
age it shall keep to the gold unit and
all paper money burned.

Germany Sees Iapan Is in Earne,t.

Berlin, Jan. 27.-As the German
government understands the present
situation, the feeling is such at Toxic
that Japan will declare war unless
Russia answers her demands favorably.
Russia recognizes this, and accordingly
intends to accept enough of Japan's
points to make the Toxic cabinet feel
that a sufficient cause for war no longer
exists, and while the forthcoming note
will not satisfy Japan, it will prevent the
possibility o; a declaration Of war.

Port Arthur, Jan. 2S.-It is reported
that about $50 wagons loaded with
army stores have left Limo Yang daily
for the past four days for the Yalu riv-
er, where it is intended to concentrate
s 900 Port Arthur and Mukden troops.
The authorities assert that the hostility
of Japan compels mobilization on the
Yalu, and on this river Russia has
heretofore carefully avoided alarming
Corea by an appearance of threatening
Japan.

Fine Conditions for Wheat.

Pendleton M. L. Morrison, who
owns large wheat ranch at Juniper
in the Umatilla district, and who is
living in Pendleton this winter, has
just returned from visit to that Sec
tion of the country. He says wheat
conditions for the 1904 crop were never
better. Mr.. Morrison said "Grow-
ing wheat never looked better. With
favorable conditions until after harvest,
that district should yield 80 and prob
ably So bushels per acre. Last season
the yield was about 20 bushels to the
acre.

DestructIOn Of The Cotton. Boil weevll.

Washington, Jan. 27.-The secretary
of agriculture has approved the plans for
the cotton boil weevil investigation in
the Southwest, for which an appropri-
alton of $500 has been available.
Secretary Wilson believes that the best
methods for meeting the ravages caused
by the boil weevil will be put into
actual practice the facts which have
been accumulated by the department
during the past two years in the matter
of improving culture conditions, the
planting of early maturing varieties Of
cotton, substitution of other crops, etc.
