LIVELY MEETING
The Republican County Executive
Committee will be in Session
Tonight

There will be meeting of the exc
cutive committee of the republican
oo,,nty central committee tonight at
rooms in the Bollinger Hotel. Some
snrnrise was manifested in republican
no,iticaI circles when the announce
,oent was made some time ago that a
meeting was tos be held. All kinds of
minors were afioat as to the object
of the meeting but members of the
committee have been reticent concern
ing that which was to come up with
the exception If few minor matters.
II is known that the committee will be
increased from five members to seven
from the district recently annexed to
this county. comprising South Sho-
shone county. 1t is also known that
several postoffies appointments will
come up for consideration where two
applicants have been recommended for
the position and there being conflicting
interests. One OF the matters will be
the Cavendish postoffice where fac
tions have recommended two appli-
cants for the position.
1t has been persistently rumored
that. the old factional differences of
. the party in this county is to be thresh-
ed over at the meeting. Chairman
Stearns would say nothing concerning
the matter neither would any member
of the committee speak on the subject.
,AA
that Governor Gooding has ceased to
recognize the organization in its en-
dorsements of candidates for state po-
sitions on the ground that applicants
for similar positions have been en-
dorsed by other members in the county
thereby creating a conflict. No in
stance Of this character has as yet been
made public in any case but such is
the fact as stated by persons believed
to be on the inside. The question that
will come up will likely determine the
course Of the organization In Its policy
during the next campaign in this coun-
ty. From inforn,a tion obtained II would
appear that Governor Gooding will be
asked to recognize the organization
and his refusal will probably mean that
he will not secure its support for re-
nomination. 1t Is known that Gov
ernor Gooding will be in Lewiston
shortly and it is understood that he
will GO in conference with party lead
ers relative to the differences alleged
to be worrying the party insth county.

DEEP ouPLIcyTv IN. RUSSIA
secret Orders to Rojestvensky to Stay
in French Ports.

Chicago. April 22.-The st. Peters,
burg correspondent of the Chicago
Daily News says:
Russia welcomes International COM
plications in the far east as likely to
a1d her i'm getting out Of her difficult
position without loss of prestige. Ro-
jestvensky has received orders not to
need protests. but to remain in French
ports. The Black Sea and fourth
squadrons are being fitted out simulta-
neously.' tsa El
Commenting ON the foregoing. the
News says editorially:
While this cable in a certain man
ner contradicts the Associated Press
reports on the same subject, it comes
from Il correspondent of the Daily
News who has shown himself in touch
with the highest authority in st. Pc
tersburg and who. through long resi-
dence in that capital, has a thorough
understanding of Russian ways. 1t is
altogether likely that Russia, being
in desperate need of ports i'm which to
coal clean and repair the Baltic fleet
will take advantage of every tendency
in her favor: will strain the compla :
cency of her French ally to the ut
most and defy international law. which
is an uncertain quantity in any case.
Rearing this in mind. it is to be
understood that there may be two sets
of orders from st. Pdtersburg-one
to muddle the Internal tional public and
the other of vital significance to Ro-
jestvensky.'

Losses il Battle.

Dispatches from Manchuria state
that tbe number of men lost at the
battle of Mukden will aggregate be-
tween 100000 and 100000, making
it the greatest and most costly battle
of modern warfare.
It is estimated that more than
three quarters Of a million men en-
gagged IN the struggle in and around
Mukden. Accepting the respective
estimates OF the opposing forces-es-
Inmates which have never yet been
exsggerated-the losses will easily
aggregate one-sixth Of the number OF
men engaged. With the exact figures
yet unobtainble, comparison with
other great battles show MukdeL's
superiority.
