of 300 million people? Beyond all ques-
ton action now on the line of Secretary
Hays circular letter will go far to set
tie the question in advance, and to pre-
determine that that illimitable market
and region shall be open on equal terms
to all. Such action at this time would
be notice to Russiaa nd Japan of the
paramount point which the civilized
world, abundantly able to enforce it,
should unequivocally demand.
1t is the point on which Americans
are interested even more than any 9TH
er people We are especially interest
ed by our growing relation to the
worlds trade, but our position, by re-
cent territorial acquisitions, and, as
William II. Seward so eloquently por-
trayed, by our very outlook upon the
Pacific ocean. From the first American
diplomacy has steadfastly stood for
this point And whatver the inmedi
ate reception of the circular may be-
it is a mastery stroke to press it to
the front now and challenge the atten-
ton of the world to it.

LOSS TO OWN ERS
Public Utilities Rarely Produce Reve
nue. for the Promoters

The Nez Perez Herald says: Public
utilities are often operated during tn
early stages of their existence at loss
to the owners This has been the case
invariably. These enterprises that cost
thousands of dollars are put in at the
owners risk and he or they shoulder the
loss and take all chances on future BEN
eft. These same enterprises which in
crease value of every foot of town or
city property directly or indirectly
should be properly supported from the
same view point. Take for instance
our electric light plant that cost APP
proximately $4,000. 1t is safe rule to
measure benefits accruing by adding
the cost of the public enterprise to the
property coming within the range of
its influence. This plant alone will add
100000 to the value of the town of Nez-
perez and should be literally patronized
by our citizens. Besides this the cost
of electric lights viii not exceed that of
oil and your fire risk is greatly lessened
by their use"

MUScoViTE JOURNALISM

The newspaper man in Russia has a
hard row to hoe these days. He can
not print any war news till it has first
appeared in the official gazette, al
though he may be in possession Of all
the facts And the government will
tolerate no scoops. The prison doors
swing out for the editor whose enter
prise gets the better of his discretion.
There Is, however, one good feature
which almost compensates for the
hlghhandedness Of the thing; the Rus
sian public is not afflicted with yellow
journalism, at least so far as private
sort of yellow headline might head
the perpetrator towards Siberia.
The government itself seems to have
dipped a little into the yellow. At
least it is believed that those fakes
about the destruction of eleven Japa-
nese warships and similar yarns orig
mated in Official sources. But, to the
credit of the car, ii g said that he is
exceedingly wroth at these perform
ances.
All In all. the newspaper business in
Russia, whether officially or privately
conducted is a superlative curiosity.

traband and liable to seizure and con-
fscation by either belligerent wherever
found. This is international law,
agreed to by all nations,
"Contradand of war" is described in
SHOWS International Law" a recog-
nlzed authority at the state department
as meaning munitions of war. or ar
ticles which are designed or capable of
use as a support or assistance to the
enemy in carrying on offensive or de-
fensive land or maritime war"
But there are certain goods and com
modtioes which come under the head
of "ConditionaIly Contraband.' These
include coal and food supplies. 1t is
generally understood mat food sup
plies are not contraband except under
such circumstances. The most import
ant distinction is whether the goods
are intended for the ordinary uses of
life. or whether they are shipped with
a highly probably destination for mill
itary use. The nature or quality of the
goods and the port to which they are
going is the test whether the goods are
contraband or not. II the port be
general commercial one, it is pre-
sumed. especially by the neutral ma
lions having the articles to sell and
looking for a probable market, that the
goods are not contraband. Although
even so considered by all parties, they
are still liable to seizure by either bel
lgerent and to be paid for after ad-
Indication in a prize court.

coNTRABAND OF WAR

The question of just what articles of
band of war Is one that is occupying
much of the time and careful consid-

Secretary Hay has announced that a
list OF the goods which the government
considered to be contraband Is being
made and will be issued in a few days

chants and shipping masters.

and shell and other munitions are con-

THE AMERICAN PROPOSAL

The proposal of Secretary Hay to
the powers contemplates the vital point
so far as the worlds interest is con-
cerned. raised by the war between Rus
STA and Japan-that is to say, the per-
manent status of China with respect
to commerce. 1t is, in ultimate effect.
a proposal to all the powers to guar
antee the integrity of the Chinese en-
pire. and even to the Russian and Jap
anese governments that they at the
outset agree to that result. Such pro-
posal, If 1t could be now agreed to,
would obviously narrow immensely the
hostile motivs of the warning nations,
and would in all probability pave the
way for adjustment of the remaining
difficulties between them when an OPP
perfume moment might arrive.
But even excluding Russia and Japan
and assuming that the other great
powers, or a decisive majority of them
can be now committed to such a pro-
gram the effect will be of lncalculable
advantage. For. though the war may
| go on, 1t must come to an end some
time, and then this same towering
question will remain--What is to be
the worlds relation with the Chinese
empire, with its prodigious undevel-
oped natural resources and its market

PROGRESS OF ELECTRIC LINE

Plans of the Lewiston & Southeast
ern Electric line are rapidly nearing
completion The permanent location
of the line has been determined upon.
The power site has been chosen and
has been secured by proper title. The
field work for the whole engineering
problem has been completed. There
only remains now the preparing of
plats and plans showing the detail OF
the work of construction and the ques-
ton of unsecured rights OF way.
Since the beginning of the enterprise
there has been n growing feeling that
It offerd the best solution for the vexed
transportation problem btween Lewis
ton and the interior ever presented and
consequently the project has received
strong support from all interior points.
The Importance of the line as a feed
err to Lewiston can hardly be over-es-
timated 1t puts the city in direct
touch with every important trading
point in the whole interior country be-
tween here and Grangeville.
The growth of trade in Lewiston
since the building of the Clearwater
short line can be used as basis for
the development to be expected when
the electric line opens up communica
ton with territory many times the
extent OF that served by the railroad.
The interior points on the reservation
and the Camas prairie sections have
not been helped by the railroad as they
will be when put in direct communica-
tfS0 over the electric line. An immense
quantity of produce not now marketed
will be brought to Lewiston either for
consumption or for shipment over the
railroads to the coast:
The increased acreage put to grow
ing grains and grasses will In many
sections be doubled acres not now titled
because there is no market for the
product. Increased tillage OF the land
will mean greater demand for farm
machinery and other necessary sup
plies, and increased population because
of better returns from the soil
There is every possibility for rapid
development from the building of the
line and Lewiston will share largely in
that development and has every reason
% contribute literally for the purchase
or stock to heip the promotion of the
enterprise. The matter will be present
no doubt meet with hearty support
