PLAINTIFFS Charge.
WEBSTER DAVIS IS
ONCE MORE RAMPANT

New York March 22.-Webster Davis. a
former Republican assistant secretary of
the interior under the Mckinley admin
istration. now a Democrat. addressed a
large audience tonight at the Democratic
club.
Mr. Davis bitterly denounced President
Roosevelt and his administration. His
platform for the Democratic party, Mr..
Davis said would be:
Roosevelt must return TO private
life"
The speaker denounced trust and mo-
nopOlies which. he said, were fostered
by the Republicans.

seems to regard as vulnerable from the
sea.
When the first official dispatches were
received the belief gained ground that
Vice ADMIRAL Makaroff had put to sea
and that a naval fight had taken place
While this would be in keeping with
his character as an intrepid officer
which is further indicated by his use Of
a cruiser as his flagship, il is not in
accord with the plans of the Russian
authorities.
Later advices established the fact that
the admiral had simply gone with the
unchanged portion of his fleet TO the
outer roads. where he could more eff
fectvely support the batteries and at
the same time take advantage of any
weakness which might develop in the
Cuemy'S attack

Ogden, and all of the Union Pa
cifie between Green River and ogden
is to be added to the Oregon Short
Line. Announcement to this effect viii
probably be made today or tomorrow,
unless there is a sudden change in the
plans.
Several official changes will take
place simultaneously. General Man
ager w H. Bancroft OF the Union Pa
cific and Oregon Short Line is to retain
his headquarters in Salt Lake, having
charge of the enlarged Short Line. It
is understood that Assistant General
Manager +. E. Calvin Of the Short
Line will go to Portland 90 take charge
of the Oregon Railroad & Navigation
Company. A. L. Mohler. now president
of the company. is slated for a posi-
ton in Omaha on the Union Pacific,
it is stated, although it is not clear
what authority he and J. NJ. Gruber,
now general superintendent Will have.
Z. II. Markham, now general man
ager of the Texas lines of the Southern
Pacific system, is to be general man
ager of the entire Southern Pacific sys-
tenn 1t is rumOred as a possibility that
the Southern Pacific lines north of San
Francisco. extending TO Portland, may
be cut off and added to the Oregon
Railroad q Navigation Co. system All
are TO be under the jurisdiction OF
Julius Kruttschnitt, reporting 10 him
as director of transportation Of the
Hartman lines. who will have head
quarters in Chicago.
Other Changes to Follow.
The jurisdiction Of the various traffic
departments is to be altered in
similar way. Traffic Manager T. NJ.
Schumacher of the Oregon Short Line
VIII have charge of all the territory
between Green River, Wyoming, and
Reno, Nevada.
AS a result Of these changes. others
of minor nature must necessarily
follow. The promotion Of Assistant
General Manager Calvin would make
necessary the selection Of a general
superintendent, a position now vacant
Z. c. Manson. superintendent Of the
Idaho division. is generally believed TO
be in line for the place
This will mean a shaking up all over
and ii will probably be years before
the adjustment TO the new conditions
is completed.
The change settles once for ell the
rumOrs that the Oregon Short Line
headquarters are TO be moved from
Salt Lake City TO Omaha or any other
place. The Importance of this city as
an operating center increases, on the
contrary.
Before the sale Of that portion Of the
Short Line south of Salt Lake City to
the san Pedro, there were 1859 miles
in the system. The sale reduced the
mileage to 1.221. The new addition viii
make the mileage 1879. The entire
Union Pacific system. after the change
Will have a mileage of 2.S19. The Short
Line. therefore, Will approach it in
lergth, as wei as in traffic Importance

the japanese have taken the precaution

Qualifications of Anju show that the Jap

proper military precautions. So far as
the Russians are concerned. they have
no intention of attacking. but the prov

A BRIGHT IDEA
kandiyohi County Farmers Show
Their Appreciation of Faithful
Service of r. r. D. Carriers.

The Willmar Tribune of recent date
says:
1.-The people who get their mail on
Willmar route no. 2 have adopted a
very practical method of shown
their appreciation of the advantages
thus given them, and of the not over
paid labors of the mail carrier. Every
now and then the carrier returns from
his trip with a sack or two of feed,
contributed by some patron along the
route. While the donors will hardly
feel the loss of the feed donated, it
amounts to good deal for the carrier.
when the plan is as generally adopted
as it seems to be along that route.
When the carrier on rural route
figures up his expenses at the end of
the year he finds very little left to pay
for his work, and for this reason such
donations must be very welcome, and
will certainly spur him on to try to
give the people on the route the best
services possible. 1t is an example
that might properly be followed by
patrons on other routes"
This is really a bright suggestion.
We would have made it if we had only
thoug ht of it,
The institution of Rural Free De-
livery has been the greatest boon to
farmers of the century. 1t has
equalized the city and. country in
regard to mail service. 1t has put the
farmer so close to the great, throbbing,
pulsating social, business and politi-
cal world that he can count its
throbbing heart-beats.
The instrument that accomplishes
this result is the Rural Free delivery
carrier. He is VIGOROUSLY underpaid.
After deducting all expenses he figures
close if he makes SLIGO a day for
himself and team and boards himself,
He must make 80 trips in a year,
travelling about 10000 miles during
the year, in fair weather and foul,
through rain, snow, heat, cold and
storm.
We believe in the near future the
government will recognize the i'm
portance of his services with adequate
compensation. Until this is done no
more graceful act could be performed
by each farmer who is beneficiary
of the system than to leave sack OF
feed at his mail box for the carrier.
