can we'll be proud of the banquet served
in the hotel, which proves that he has
good taste in more than one sense of
the word-in securing an efficient chef
who cap get together such a delicious
feast as was had Monday night, and re-
tanning such able and experienced din
ing room help.
DR.. A. X. Higgs was called on for a
toast and responded with some very
fitting remarks. He said that he was
as yet but yong elk, but could appre-
ciate their good qualities. He spoke of
the rapid progress of the order and
hoped that in the future it would reach
every civilized nationality on the globe.
After the banquet dancing was re-
sumed in the hall.
The entertainment throughout went
like clock work, and all present were
not slow in their praise for the excellent
time had.

THE JOLLY ELkS.
An Excellent Program With Bali
and Banquet.

1t is always foregone conclusion that
when Heppner Lodge No. 35S, B. P. o.
Elks attempt anything they make suc-
ces of it, and this was proven by the
dance and banquet given last Monday
night. From start to finish it was one
continual round of pleasure. Roberts
hall was beautifully decorated with
purple and white bunting and the cleo
trio globes were encased in China lam
terms, which produced very pleasing
effect. On the stage was the mammoth

After some discussion as to the time
of holding the primaries, the time was
fixed for Saturday, March IL, by unani-
nous vote.
1t was recommended and motion
was carried to the effect that the pri.
maries be kept open from one O'Clock
until three O'Clock in the afternoon
throughout the different precincts of the
county.
By motion, the time for the holding of
the county convention was fixed for Sat.
urday, March 10.
The next order of business was the
apportioning of delegates for the differ
ent precincts.
The basis of apportionment was taken
from the vote cast for Judge Bean t
the last election, and is as follows:
One delegate at large for each pre-.
cinct, and one for each Is votes or ma.
jor fraction thereof cast for supreme
judge. With this apportionment the
total number of delegates will be 50.

An orchestra of six pieces was se.
cured from Arlington to furnish music
for the evening.
A short musical program was arranged
for the forepart of the evening which
follows:
The first number on the program was
by the Arlington orchestra which was
we'll received.
The next number was by Otheo Craw-
ford, who has rich voice, which was
we'll deserving the encore he received.
His notes were perfectly clear and we
predict bright future for him in vocal
music.
Miss Villa Minor, who always pleases
Heppner audience in her reading, was
not present, hence this treat was
omitted.
J. A. Mckee sang "The Mighty
Deep" His voice shows much train
ing and simply captivated the audience.
Mr.. Mckee is exceptionally fine on the
low notes. AS an encore he sang
"Asleep in the Deep" in a manner that
would be credit to any vocalist.
MISS Lillian Cochran in singing "De-
rie." showed that she possessed rare
talent and has a very sweet voice.
The guitar and mandolin club, con-
sistlng of Messrs j. K. Carr and Frank
and Oscar Borg played as only those
with much talent and experience can.
The program concluded with vocal
solo "Genevieve" by Miss Lutte Ras-
mus. Miss Rasmus has an unusually
good contralto voice and always pleases
the audience. She responded to an en-
core by singing "The Holy City," which
suited her voice perfectly.
After the program was finished the
nall was cleared and the light fantastic |
vas enjoyed until II 80, when all re-
paired to the Palace hotel, where the |
was to be served.

FLEET WILL QUIT SMYRNA.


Constantinople, Aug. ia salts
factory solution of the American school
question has at last arrived. This
matter, which is the most important Of
the American demands, was settled by
extending too American schools the
same treatment as that accorded to the
schools under the protection of other
powers.
A settlement Of other matters affect
ing American interests in Turkey, OF
secondary Importance, has also been
effected, and United States Minister
Leishman has telegraphed to Rear Adj
miral Jewett, in command OF the
United States squadron sent to Smyrna,
instructing him to salute the batteries
on land and depart.
The sitting of the council of minis
ters at which the settlement was
agreed upon, was long one, and 1t
was not until its close that an agree
ment was reached. The delay in the
settlement Ia believed TO have been
caused by the intervention OF the
palace functionaries, whose policy, In

sists Of combating the rights and priv
lege OF foreign subjects.

Chefoo, Aug 1.-THE Russian tor
pedo boat destroyer Ryeshitelni, flying
the Japanese flag, was sighted nearing
the Elliott islands on the evening OF
August IL. She was being towed by q
Japanese torpedo boat destroyer. A
second one acted as escort.
The report that the Japanese had left
the Ryeshitelni at some Chinese port
probably aroee from the report brought
by junk to the effect that when pass
ing Yung Ching bay south OF shantung
promontory, she saw one of the two
Russian dsstroycrs which went ashore
there.
Japanese arriving here from Dalny
communicated with the DESTROYER es-
corting the Ryeshitelni and they were
informed that careful examination of
the Ryeshitsini after her capture by
the Japanese showed that the Russians
had not rendered her completely in
effective before her capture. A tor
pedo was still in torpedo tube, it's
propeller only having been removed.
The torpedo towed by rowboats might
have been used effectively against the
Japanese. 1t WAS also stated that
while the breeehes of her guns had
been unhinged several remained ON
board, The japanese consul here
states that his government has no idea
OF returning the Ryeshitelni.

POWERS STAY OUT.
America 10 Have free Rein i'm Deal
Ing with Turkey.

Washington, Aug. l2.--The United
States will not become involved wi
great foreign powers in its dealings
with the sultan Of Turkey. The an
nouncement comes tonight from q
source of unquestionable reliab'l lily
that assurances have been given the
president that the signatory powers
will in no way interfere with the
United States in its present attempt to
secure equal rights in the Ottoman en-
piie for American subjects.
AT what time this was done, or the
means by which it was accomplished
it is not stated, but the feat that two
foreign ambassadors, Baron Won Stern
berg, OF Germany, and Baron Hengel-
muller, OF Austria, representatives of
two of the signatory powers to the
treaty guaranteeing the integrity of
the Ottoman empire, have hurried
here from their pleasant retreats in
Bar Harboi and Lennox, and have had
occasion to lunch with President
Roosevelt, may in great measure, ex-
plain tho methods by which these as
surances have been extended. The
Austrian ambassador returned to Maine
last night.

ALASKA NAY FIND FAULT.
Department Does for Bankers What
Ii Would Not for Territory.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 1.-THE
postoffice department, by issuing an
order today at the behest of capitalists
and bankers of New York, eliminating
all weight restrictions on first class
mail matter addressed to foreign eoun-
tries where domestic rates do not aP'
ply, lays itself open to criticism Of
discriminating against Alaska. Last
winter an effort was made to induce
the department to waive the weight
restrictions on first-class mail matter,
so that Alaska miners might ship their
gold to states by mail in packages
weighing more than four pounds, but
this privilege was denied. Shippers
represented through congressman that
they were now at the mercy OF the
transportation companies, who veie
charging exhorbitant rates to bring
gold to the states, and they Therefore
sought the privilege of shipping y
mail. The department then held
could not amend its regulation. NOW
however, it amends the regulation III
order that the banks may more CONVEX
iently ship their securities abroad

HAY TO BE PLAIN
RussIa's Ruling on Contraband
Cannot Be Accepted.
Great Effort VIII Bs Made to Have II Reach
81. Petersburg So Board Reviewing Arabs
Cas- Can Consider It.

Washington, Aug. is. -- Secretary
Hay 10 preparing protest against the
confscstion OF portion OF the cargo OF
the Hambu, American steamer
Arabia, under the terms of the findings
OF the prize court at Vladivostok, land
az soon az the papers are complete,
will forward them to Ambassador Nc
Cormiek, at st. Petersburg, for presen.
tation to the Russian government.
Along with this protest eecretary Hay
will file general protest against furth-
ar seizures of American goods and sup
plies consigned to Japanese ports un.
less II can be shown that the goods are
intended for the use OF the Japanese
military or naval forces.
1t will be made plain that this gov
eminent does not subscribe to the Rus
sian view OF contraband of war, and
will not consent to the seizure OF Its
goods on the grounds on which por-
tion of the Aiabia's cargo is held al
Vladivostok. To strengthen his pro-
test, Secretary Hay will forward to st.
Petersburg afldavils laid before him
by representative of the owners OF the
-four that had been seized, conclusively
showing that il was consigned to COM
mercial houses in Japan, and not to
agents OF the Japanese government.
The state department has been adj
vised that the proceedings Of the Vladi-
vostok prize court are to be reviewed
by superior board at the Russian
capital, and 1t 10 the intention to have
the AmeIi lean protest on hand in time
to be passed upon by that body.
AS yet the owners of the -four and
railway supplies that were seized have
not submitted to the state depar tment
any claim against the Russian govern
ment, apparently assuming that Rus
sia n y yield to Secretary Hays pro-
test and release the goods now held.
If the goods have been used by the
Russians, or il for some other reason
the release is impracIicable, and Rus
STA admits the correctness of attitude
OF this government, such claims will
have to he presented. 1t Ia the belief
OF some officials of the state depart
ment that the matter will eventually
be adjusted in this manner, and that
the owners If the nnf}eeatad oonds wi II
be fully reimbursed.

FEAR or SHARKS.


Washington, Aug. 1.-THE interior
department will not create any more
forest reserves In Oregon at this time
because II il afraid Ia so doing 1t would
open up endless opportunities for lieu
land operators. +"
This is the explanation given today
by an official who Ia handling forestry
matters under Secretary Hitchcock q
direction. While the bureau OF for
estry. recommending the establish
mrnt Of Blue mountain reserve, has
carefully drawn lts boundaries so AZ to
exclude practically all private hold
ings. yet II q reserve should be created
on those lines, the department. fears
that after the reserve was created, grea
numbers Of spectators would Ale en-
tries and alIags settlement on land In
the reserve prior to the time when the
original withdrawal WIS., made.
The depar tment officials admit 1t
would be q comparatively easy thing
for spectators TO bring forward wit
nesses 10 swear falsely as 10 their hay
ing established residence on this land
and II would be almost Impossible for
the government to secure evidence
which would justify the rejection Of
these entries. Once spectators estab-
lsshed their right to the reserve lands.
they would be entitled under the Law
10 relinquish them and make lieu seIec-
tions Of more valuable lands eIsew here.
But Gays this official, ''aa reserves
are not created and land simply re-
mains Withdrawn from entry, no base
for lieu selections can be created, and

ANXIOUS TO END STRIKE.
Mayor of Chicago, However, Will
Not Discuss Trouble Now.

Chicago, Aug. 16.-There were few
developments in the packers strike to-
day, and 1t is not probable that there
will be any for several days. A com.
mittee of retail dealers will call upon
Mayor Harrison and ask him to act as
mediator in the strike. The mayor de-
clines to say what he will do until he
receives the committee, but expressed
himself as anxious to do anything in
his power to end the strike.
The hackers declined to say this af-
ternoon to say whether they would ac-
cept the mediation of the mayor.
They declared that they would, of
course, receive him.
Chief of Police O'Neil and Police In
spector Hunt laid formal charges before

Fitzgerald, who, it is asserted by the
police, has discharged the great major
ity OF the rioters brought before him,
no matter how strong the evidence
against them.

GREATEST or NAVAL BATTLES.
port Arthur Engagement Is Shown
by Official Reports.

st. Petersburg, Aug. lU.--Not since
tia beginning OF the war between Jap
All and Russia has anything 30 obvious
|y affected Russian spirits as the grad
ual revelation OF the extent Of the Port
Arthur squadron's reverses. Details
Of Rear Admiral Withoeft's fatal sortie
are not known to the general pubic
even at this hour. though the contents
Of the report Of Captain MatouaevItch,
Admiral Withoeft's ehief OF staff, TO the
emperor. gradually permeated official
circles In the course Of the day. The
captains statement was issued late to-
night In the form OF an official report.
Captain Matousevitch makes 1t clear
that the Port Arthur squadron fought
what probably was the greatest battle
of ironcIads since steel replaced WOOD
in naval construction. The effort OF
the Russians TO fight their way through
he Japanese would probably have
been successful had II not beer foE the
llisaster to the battleship Caai eyitch,
which compelled the squadron to fight
a second battle, ending in the dispersal
Of the Russian fleet in the darkness.
The Associated Press learns that the
awful mortality OF the officers OF the
Czarevitch, which was merely stated In
the. official report, is due to the fact
that Admiral Withoeft and most OF his
officers were gathered ON the bridge
during the action in order to set an ex
ample to and encourage the men, in
stead OF remaining in comparative SAT-
ETY. In the protection OF the coming
tower. A japanese shell burst beneath
the bridge, wrecking that part OF the
ship and killing or wounding every
officer ON duty thereabouts.
One of the most important features
Of Captain Matousevitch' dispatch,
aside from it's grimly brief account OF
the battle, is the detailed statement OF
the makeup OF Rear Admiral Togo's
fleet, which consisted of six battleships,
IL cruisers OF various classes and APP
proximately 80 torpedo boats.
According to this statement there
were in line of battle some ships pie
yiously reported destroyed. This gives
an indication Of Japan's naval force
which Admiral Togo has hitherto con-
cealed.

LIKELY TO DESTROY BIG SHIPS.
Russia, so Toxic Believes, VIII MOI
Be Able to Repair Them.

Toxic, Aug. 16.--It is believed
here that the Russians will not be able
to repair the five battleships reported
by Admiral Togo to have been damaged
in the recent sea fighting at Port
Arthur. The Japanese land batteries
now command the entrance to the
harbor, and could render this work i'm
possible.
Before the Russian fleet emerged
from Port Arthur on August 10 the
Japanese batteries could reach the war
ships there with shells ard the docks
were exposed to fire the severity of
which was increasing constantly. 1t
is doubted If these ships will be able to
go sea again without first undergo
ing repairs, and it is expected that the
Russians themselves will destroy them
before Port Arthur falls.
