Is a fascinating and invlgorating past

but the mind. The Alpine Peaks OF
Switzerland have their counterpart in
our own country, in the Sierras, the

The greatest glacial peak Of the

This magnificent mountain has Is or
more giant glaciers creeping down its
sides and discharging their glacial
detritus into the Columbia river or
Puget sound.
A climb to the summit of this peak

Postmaster General After
March q, 1905.

Washington, Nov. 2l.-1t was an.
nounced at the White house today that
Attorney General Moody has decided
to remain in President Roosevelt's
new cabinet. ~
Prior to his transfer from the navy
department to the department of JUS
tice Mr.. Moody authorized the state.
ment that at the conclusion of the
present administration he would retire
from the cabinet to practice law in
Boston. It was stated in this connec-
ton that Mr.. Moody had formed a law
partnership that was congenial and
advantageous in all respects. This
was given as his only reason for re-
firing from public life.
1t vas known for some time that
the Office of attorney general of the
United States was entirely to Mr..
MOody's liking, and as it was known
also that President Roosevelt desired
that Mr.. Moody should continue in the
cabinet, the announcement made to-
day was not surprising.
1t is understood that the president
and Mr.. Moody are in perfect accord
in their ideas as to the conduct of the
department of justice, and in order to
carry into effect certain plans which
the president and he have formulated
Mr.. Moody has decided, on the request
of Mr.. Roosevelt, to continue in the Of
fee of attorney general.
The Coming Cabinet.
The decision of Attorney General
Moody renders it reasonably certain
that the heads of six of the great axe
cutive departments of the government
have been determined on by the presi-

state department; Mr.. Taft at the
head of the war department; Mr.. Met.

commerce and labor; Mr.. Wilson at
the head of the department of agricul.

1t is expected also that Mr.. Shaw

Confidence In Protection of Reform
ers by Minister Of the Interior
Musky.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 21.-The inter.
est in the meetings of the. zemstvos
representatives is intense. The wal
and all other questions are Temporal
lily forgotten. Nothing else is talked
OF. Liberals from all parts of the EN-
pire are iocking here, including many
from Poland and Finland. The hotel
lobbies are crowded, almost resenpb-
ling convention times in American cit
les. The permission granted by Inter-
ior Minister Sviatopolk-M irsky was
for an assembly OF the 800.
The participants friends display
complete confidence in the protection
afforded by the minister and his most
outspoken sentiments. Nothing ap-
preaching such a gathering has ever
before been permitted in Russia.
ExiEes Allowed to Return.
AS evidence of the remarkable state
of affairs, it is sufficient to mention
that M OF the most prominent
speakers yesterday was M. Petrunke-
witch, of Tver, who spent "a years in
exile and who had only been allowed
since Prince Sviatopolk-M irsky's ad-
vent to come to the capital.
Nevertheless the most able men in
the assembly are counseling moiera-
ton and are doing everything possible
to prevent demonstration which might
compel interference.
One of the strongest members OF
the conference said to the Associated
Press:
I'VE want to make our position
plain to the government, but we desire
to avoid every appearance of law1ess-
ness. / sincerely hope the meeting
will be productive of great good. We
hope and expect that all provincial
and district zemstvos will follow our
lead and demonstrate to the govern
ment that the voice of the nation is
unanimous for a direct share in the
government by the people,"
