ed While in that country he was aware
of the fact that his every movement
was known to the officers. as they Kept
him under constant surveillance
Mr. Harrison described the conditions
now existing in Russia. saving that p
person had to go 10 great pains TO get
a passport as they could not move
hand or foot without one. He also said
the Russian officials refused 10 reccg-

zens. and would not issue them pass
pcrts, It making no difference how sng
their ancestors may have been in this
Mr. Harrison is strongly in favor of
a new treaty by which the American

Consul General Henry B. Miller, sta

In Washington in a few days to make an
impor tant report at the State Depart

His location enabled him TO get a very
close view of the hostilities. and he will
be able TO give the State Department all
the facts available.
Consul General Miller is home on
leave, but it is said that he will proba-

Miller's Opinions
Consul General Miller in an interview
at his home in Oregon the other day,
lust after his return, said:
The war Is yet far from an end Fol-
a time ii appeared as Il the end of the
struggle was near at hand. but the
calling out of the Russian Baltic fleet
put an entirely new countenance to the
situation Russia has 10 hopes of de-
feating the japanese fleet, but by thu
Baltic squadron she will harass and re
tard the movements of the little brown
men at sea, and especially hamper them
by preventing the entrance of foreign
merchant marine vessels into japanese
ports

Domination Of China.

1.-THE war Is not fought By Japan mere
Iy to secure Manchuria or Korea. but
for the domination of China. And the
domination of China being the question
at point necessarily makes die strug-
gle of keen interest to Germany and
France. either of which is too ready
and willing to step into the affray.
las matter of fact. the United
States would be but little better OFF
with Japan dominating China than with
Russia We would receive better treat
n,ent and greater concessions. possibly,
from Japan than from Russia, but the
difference would not be great.
But. as / said, the end is yet long
way off, and the only possible solution
to the badly mixed problem viii be the
interference of the powers, the united
council of which would be able 70 arrive
at solution.

When the resolution to the United
States Congress. urging the establish
ment of a forest reserve in the East, is
presented by the committee on resolu-
tons Friday it is expected that every

One interesting feature in connection
with the Forest Congress is the number
OF women delegates who appear Oh the
floor every day and give close attention
TO the proceedings.
Some of the most ardent advocates of
perpetuation of the forests are found
among the fair sex. In the past eight
cr ten years the women have done much
work toward preserving the great tim
Der tracts of the Northwest and West.
The women of the Forest Congress
are especially interested in the move
ment TO secure great national forest
reservation in the Appalachian Noun
| tain range. They point out the fact
that at the present time the Govern
ment has $1,000, 900 acres of forest reserv-
atoms in the United States. and every
/, square foot is west of the Mississippi
+, River.
