SIX TO one.
RUSSIA WINS
NOT "a BET, BUT NUMERICAL DI-
VISION OF MUsCovITEs.
George Gackle Of North Dakota Says
the Japs Will win, and Tells why,
but Fails to Convince His Six Rus
sian Companions.

Six<to one that Russia would win in
the end against the Japs, was the opin-
ion Of a group Of Russians who dined
together at the Rogers hotel Yesterday.
George Gacl1le, the head of the Rus
sian colony at Kuhn, N. D., was the
only one among the seven who was con
fdent Of the victory, of the Japs.

her present condition, is a match for
the Japs. She lacks education and pub
lie enlightenment, and with these draw
backs will not be able to cope with the
plans Of the trained Japanese generals.
Russia is strong in crude way, but she
is not strong enough to cope with mod
ern advancement. Coupled with these
troubles is the difficulty of transport,
ing troops I do not see why it should
be any easier to throw troops into the
field at the end OF the war than it is
at present. -.
Mr.. Gackle 8 opinion was instantly
challenged and an animated discussion
arose. Some of the assertions were:

BISHOP PRAISES WORKERS
Work of Women of Episcopal Churches
Highly Commended.

Bishop Edsall paid high tribute to
the work of the women Of the Episco-
pal churches at the annual gathering
of the Women 8 Auxiliary of the do
cese of Minnesota in Gethsemane
church this morning. After he had
complmentcd them on what they had
done he urged them to still greater
effort for the future. Bishop Van
Buren, of Porto Rico then made an
earnest plea for share Of the results
of this effort for his missions in Porto
Rico, which are in great need Of help.
Bishop Van Buren, described the life
and conditions on the island and made
plain the vast field it offers in mission
airy work. A hospital and a new rec.
tory are recent additions to the mis-.
sion buildings.
The service in the church was opened
with a celebration of the holy com
munion and preceded the regular bust
ness meeting this afternoon. Mrs
Hector Baxter presided over the pro
gram in the parish house and gave he1
annual report. The delegates num-
bered 800 and represented the differ
emit Episcopal parishes in the diocese

NEW WRINKLE IN

sPRAGUE AN ESTIMATOR OF THE

Just Like a Wheat Expert Sizes Up

Breaking into the ranks Of the crop

the background, comes A. H. Sprague
of Chicago, champion all-around chick
en- estimator of the world, with his
first annual estimate of the poultry
crop Of the United States.
produce interests Of the country Stats
tically, in the manner in which the
grain trade is served, Mr.. Sprague, who
is known far and wide in the produce
trade, has gone into the matter com
prehensively and Systematically. just
as the crop expert goes out of Mime
out to size up the turkeys, chickens,
ducks and geese. His report illustrates
the great possibilities still lying open
to crop experts, the fields as yet un-
touched, and the development yet to
come in crop exporting, which profess
sion, from present indications, will have
reached it's ultima thule only when the

LOOKING UP SELLERS
Police Investigating the Record Of the
Alleged Highwayman.

Evidence tending to show that Ray
Sellers, the alleged highwayman, has a
reputation in other cities is gra dually
being gathered by the police depart
ment. Chief of Police Daily Of Red
Wing came to Minneapolis yesterday to
see Sellers, as he had q wide acquaint-
ance in that city. He spent several
months there last winter and the au-
thorities think he was responsible for
some Of the puzzling robberies in that
place.
A letter from the Detroit police de-
partment is also in the hands Of Super

The failure of Hearst to secure a
newspaper nomination for president
may induce some carping critics to be-
little the influence of the press. But it
is too soon to make such deductions.
The Maui News never came out HAT

defeat may in some measure be due.
However that may be, the News man
hereby announces himself candidate
for the Democratic nomination for pres

lows: Influences back of the Parker
candidacy are so intimately associated
with the trusts and great corporations
that the Democratic party could not ap-
peal to the masses. The party cannot
afford to entrust its future to the men
who are responsible for the party's de-
feat in 1896 and 1900. If Mr.. Parker
had a record of his own he might be
judged upon that record. But as he
has refused to speak for himself ne
must be judged by the record of his
political manager, ex-senator Hill, and
his financial agent, August Belmont,

weak enough to put his candidacy in

Hilo appears to have registered a
complaint about the land Office system
to some effect. There is something un-
satisfactory about our land system, and
part of the difficulty, as pointed out
by The Star two years ago, lies in the
lack of sufficient publicity. Land Com
missioner Pratt has compiled with the
law, but the law does not seem to con-
tain proper provisions. Certainly a sys-
TEN under which it is possible for the
government to dispose of lands at less
than people stand willing to pay, calls
for correction. Commissioner Pratt will
do well to give the matter some study.
