Apparently the czar has had an ex- perience not unlike that of Napoleon III. Asked as to preparedness for war, Napoleon's marshal informed him that everything was ready down to the last gaiter button" Events proved that nothing was ready.
 The czar is disappointed bitterly, not only at the existence of war, but that it should have come upon his realm along with the assurances of trusted officers that there would be no hostihties, but that if precipitated, a possibility so remote as hardly to be eonsid cred, the army and navy would be equipped and alert.
 No wonder Russia is working with haste to make amends and reach a war footing. Meanwhile the general tone of the Russian press may be dis cerned in the counsel, Cheer up; the worst is yet to come"

ENEMIES OF RUSSIA.

Save as 6 matter of diplomacy, the peoples of the earth do not sympathize with Russia in the present war with Japan. Why? The explanation is not far to seek, though its meaning is of the deepest significance. As the decades roll by the civilized populace of the more progressive countries from the heart cry out more and more emphatically against the tyranny of absolutism.
 France is pro-Russian. Buf it is SD because Russian bonds are a French investment and because of it's hatred for Germany.
 The aristocratic class of Germany has Russian leanings because of it's fear of destruction at the hands of the growing Socialist party, and because of an ambition to sever the Franco Russian alliance.
 Aside from the wealthy and the ofice-holding class in France and the aristocrats of Germany, the spontane-
 
 corresponds to that which prevails in the United States. Not that the pres ent cZar fails to earnestly strive to be a benefactor to his millions, not that the Russia of today is not better than the Russia of fifty years ago, but that the idea of popular government, of the responsible unit in society, is abroad in the world, and is gradually extend ing its sway. IL is far from likely that this will manifest itself in the total abandonment of the monarchic idea, at least not for generations, but it is certain that notifications such as have lowered in western Europe will slowly materialize elsewhere. And Russia, as the sole remaining great power which continues under an ab- solute monarchy, is most alien to the sentiments of democratic growth.
 The future now looks very clouded 10 that Bear which walks like a man. Steady aggression accumulates en- emies. Encroachments at the ex- pense of the yellow race have ava kened the Japs to undertake the most spectacular war of modern times. Look upon a map, consider the area of Japan and then that of Russia and Siberia. Japan must have felt the necessity deeply to have dared the clash with the half of Europe and Of Asia.
 But it is not only Japan with which the Russian government must cope A revolt is ripe in Finland. War is imminent on the southern border be tween Bulgaria and Turkey, Bulgaria being the buffer between Europe and the sultan Austria-Hungary, espe- cially Hungary, has many score to remember against the Bear of the North. And there still are the nihil- ists at home.

TROPIc SPOT IN THE ARCTIC.
verdsnt Basin Where Miners Can AL
 ways Take a Hot Bath.

Tacoma, Wash, March 11.-Latest Nome advices received at Dawson give details of wonderful hot springs which make a verdant spot just below the latitude of the Arctic ocean in the midst of winter. These springs are located on Reed river, one hundred miles northwest of Riley camp, in the Kobuk river country.
 The thermal zone covers a large basin, where it is possible for. travel CTS to disrobe at any time of the year and bathe in warm water. Snow new CT falls there, and the grass is always green. Vegetation is luxuriant, with abundant ferns six feet high. Miners go there and bathe during the winter months when the thermometer only a few miles away registers 60 to 70 be- low zero. Fish may be caught in the

The Big Battle 0veri
 La Cananea Related
HOW THE GATES CROWD TRIED TO lNVEIGlE BILL GREENE
 INTO A TRAP.
Special to Review

1 Douglas, March 11-Al Bernard
 was in Douglas last evening, coming ' from New York City. where he has been with W. c. Greene during his re i cent struggle with the Gates crowd
 MT. Bernard was asked to say some | thing about this battle of financial ! giants for the control of the Cananea the fight of his life and came out with colors flying.
 The Gates faction, for some time. have been trying to get control of the Cananea mines. and 10 do this they must fire Bill Greene out of the com pany
 They induced Greene to consent to a big bond issue, the money to be used for developing and improving the property and reduction plant. granted that the money raised by the bonds would be a great benefit to the Cananeas. Through some source Greene found out that the object of the Gates crowd was to get their clutches on the property. Their scheme was to get out the bond issue, spend the money in extravagant improve ments, run the mines in such man. ner they would not produce ore enough to pay expenses, and in every way run the property into the ground and the stock with it. When the Cananeas failed to pay the interests on the bonds they would be forfeited and the good name of the Greene Consolidated would be gone. then Gates and his crowd would step in and get control for a song and Greene would be out.
 Greene gathered his forces together and went into the fight to win; he carried everything before him, and as Mir. Bernard said, put the kibosh on Gates and his friends. Instead of a large issue of bonds Greene advocat- ed an issue of stocks. He carried his point by a small margin, and the stock instead of the bonds will be sold to improve the mines.
 Greene had a hard battle to save himself and the majority of the stock holders but he did it, and has placed himself in a position that will make it nearly impossible for any outside interests to jockey the stock or get control Of the mine by means fair or otherwise.

BE A BOOSTER.

No matter where you live, old man,
 Or whether up or down, ti The best and wisest thing to GO
 Is boost 'er-boost the town. Other men may jeer and joke. They May swear you are a clown The wisest thing to do, old man,
 Is boost 'er-boost the town Unhappy souls there are. of course,
 Long faces and a frown; But smile, no matter how it goes,
 And boost 'er-boost the town. Boost 'er when the knockers knock,
 And just fight 'em up and down The wisest thing to do, old man,
 Is boost 'er-boost the town.

Trenton, N. J.. March 11.-George Francis, who keeps a livery stable on East Lafayette street, has not al lowed water to pass his lips for forty years. In explanation he says that when a boy water affected him so that when he drank it he would immediate ly have bleeding of the lungs.
 When he stopped drinking water the bleeding ceased and has never troubled him since. He drinks tea. coffee and stimulants. but draws the line at water.

At the national capital there is manifest determination among the leaders of the republican party to force Arizona and New Mexico into a single state. This condition is made plain by every report sent out both by the Associated Press and the special correspondents at the national capital. Now we have the declara- ton from President Roosevelt that he is not advocating the joint statehood plan. But this statement is no se- curity to the people of the territory that the intention of the republicans in congress will not be carried out. It would have been much more satis- factory to the people of Arizona had the president decla-e@ his avowed op- position to the proposed outrage.

MoRMoNs ARE FRANK.

The old Mormon patriarchs are making some unexpected revelations before the senatorial committee which is conducting the investigation of Sen ator Reed Shoot. senator-elect from the state of Utah, to determine wheth- CT he should be denied the right to held seat in the senate.
 President Smith told a straight for~ard story of how he had contin- ued to practice polygamy in violation of the laws of the state of Utah. The president of the Mormon church was no less frank in telling his story than was Francis M. Lyman, who is the president of the twelve apostles. the determining legislative bo6y of the church
 Mir. Lyman said he became an apcs- tie in 1880. and that Smoot became an apostle in 1900. He said Shoot had never reproved him for living in poiyg- amy, either in public or in the apos- tolic meetings.
 If I am thought worthy I will sue ceed to the presidency of the Mormon church. if I survive President Smith" said Lyman in answer to a question. Lyman said that he is the presiding officer of the twelve apostles.
 q fully intend" said Lyman, show ing a disposition to elaborate, ito be true to the law of my country, to my God and to my obligations and GOV enants with my wives, and I have never done thing that my conscience did not approve"
 T want" he proceeded, ito make a brief explanation if you will permit. My case is different from that of most other men. I was born in lS4O. and I can hardly remember when my fath- CT was not a polygamist. He was a friend and adviser of Prophet Joseph Smith, and was taught by him the importance and the truth of the prin- ciples of polygamy. He accepted the teachings and entered into the prac tice. marrying six wives in the years Js45 and 1S46. So that my earliest recollection embraces the life of poly g amy. Consequently I have known nothing else and I have felt that il was correct. I have always felt ir my soul and heart that I was correct The situation has been very painful to me. and have been greatly pained to find myself in opposition to the law ot my country and of the church. But have made a coveneDt with my wives 10 love, support and endear them and could not find il in my heart tt separate from them so long as they were true to me"
 Senator FIoar: 50 you, an apostSf of your church, expect to succeed MT Smith in the presidency, and in th' capacity to receive divine revelation yourself, confess that you are nov living and expect to continue to liv' in disobedience to the laws of thu country. the law of your church, ant the law of God?"
 The witness replied Yes"
 This frank admission that the prac tice of polygamy has not been discon tinued in Utah by the heads of thu Mormon church will increase the pop ular prejudice against this reiigion organization, which had been some what allayed by the declarations Of church manifesto and by pledge made by the Mormons that polyganl would be abandoned. when the ques ton of the admission of Utah as state was up for consideration by con gress.

(SDnClHl to ID1
PETERSBURG, VA, April 23--The ac-

Mr.. w. 3. Mc1lwalne, who appeared be-
fore tho Council LII the Interest of the
merchants against the trading stamp
companies, stated that the ordinance Will
hold iii court. The local press of the last
few DAYS has contained long communica-
lions from the trading stamp men as to
the advantage derived by the public from
che stamps. The Council, backed by
many prominent merchants, seems deter

trading stamp nuisance.

The fact that William Cameron and
Brother applied to the Council and re-
ceivcd permission from them to build o

indicate that the trust which recently
bought this business will operate the fac
