THE TREATY SIGNED.
The Final act in the Negotiations at
Portsmouth.

Portsmouth. n. H., Sept. 5.-The
Treaty of Portsmouth was signed
shortly before O'Clock this afternoon.
in the conference room of the navy
general stores at the nayy-yard. The
firing of the national salute of nine
teen guns was the signal which told
the people of Portsmouth, kitterey
and Newcastle that the peace at Ports
mouth was an accomplished fact, and
the church bells in the three towns
were soon pealing forth a joyful re-
frain.
For forty-seven minutes those out
side the conference room anXiOuSly
awaited the signal Suddenly an Or
derby dashed.to the entrance of the
peace building and waived his hand
to the gunner, few feet away, and
the opening shot of the salute rang
out on the clear air of the soft Septem-
Der afternoon, pr0claiming peace be-
tween Russia and Japan.

RICE STORAGE
Louisiana Irrigation & Mill Go. Throws
Open Its Warehouse.

The Louisiana Irrigation & Mill Co..
has decided to throw open their mill
warehouses to the farmers for a gener-
al rice storage business. Rice will be
received at all storage warehouses Of
the company and stored subject to the
usual storage charges. On the sale Of
rice, or its removal from the ware
house, it will be loaded into the cars
with the same care used in handling
the company's own rice.
All the warehouses of the company
will be open to all buyers and every
assistance will be given the farmer in
selling his rice to the best advantage.
Samples will be sent out and buyers in
the local territory, as well as in the
larger markets. will be given an op-
portunity to bid on the goods.
Liberal advances will be made on
warehouse receipts, for the purpose of
enabling the farmer in all cases to
hold or to sell as he sees fit. and to
dispose of his goods to the best ad-
vantage.
toll milling business will be done
to accommodate those who desire their
goods sold in the clean.
Farmers of this section are invited
to make headquarters at their Ro-
anOke or Jennings mills where they
will be furnished information as to
this company's method for getting the
largest cash price for their goods.

DR.. Holt on kOllnke.

In recent speech in New Orleans DR.,
Joseph Holt, who for twenty years
preserved that city from fever epidem-
les by establishing quarantine at the
mouth of the river and compelling
prompt reports of all suspicious eases
as they appeared, took Drs. Kohnke
and SlOuchon severely to task for sup
pressing the truth as to the existance
of yellow fever for two months. DR..
Holt openly charged both these ottici'
ale with wilful and malicious suppress
sion of facts and although the city pa
pers did not give full publicity to the
speech and the serious declarations
made, DR.. Hollis address was printed
in pamphlet and distributed.
DR.. Kohnke demanded an apology
and received the following spicy note:
New Orleans, La,
Aug. %, 1905.
"Dr. Quitman kohnke, City Health
Officer, City;
In responce to your note this date
received, | have this to say:
You are evidently trying a bluff
game, but whether so or not, you can
pop your whip and wade in, for l make
to you neither apology nor exblana.
ton. l am only sorry you were not
present to hear my speech last night.
You are the creature who said to me
from your official chair. when I re-
ported an early case of yellow fever,
in 1898, dam the law"
(Signed) JOSEPH HOLT"
This is strong language, bnt DR..
Hollis charges are believed by large
number of people in and out of New
Orleans. Has suppression gained any
trade for that Inflated city?

THE NEWS IN RUSSIA.
Report OF the Signing of the Treaty
Received With Apathy.

st. Petersburg, Sept. 1.-THE news
of the signing at Portsmouth of the
Treaty of Peace was received here
quietly and even with the same apathy
that has marked the attitude of the
Russian people throughout the war.
There was no demonstration and no
special means were adopted to make
the news known. No extra editions of
the newspapers were issued and large
part of the population of St. Peters,
burg will be ignorant of the final act
of the penipotentaries until they read
of it in this mornings newspapers.
Two Or three of the newspapers this
morning publish the text of the treaty
as cabled from Portsmouth, but the
press generally seems to have made
no effort to chronicle the event which
has been discounted by the news of
the progress of the negotiations.

Crop Prospects Good.

Crop prospects are good at the pres
ent time. Good growing weather dur
ing the irrigating season, has, in a
great measure, Offset the influence of
late planting. OF course the acreage
will be somewhat reduced, but that
may not be an unfavorable condition.
The reports from Chicago and St.
Louis are hopeful. In fact, from a
straight business outlook, it might be
predicted that this would be good
year for the planter. Yet We must re.
member that 1.-THE Shadow of the
MILF has grown no brighter, but has
really assumed deeper hue.
1t was depicted in 1.-The Farm and
Ranch, " that the merchant as we'll as
the farmer, was Swallowed by the mill,
but now it happens that that shadow
has been extended and darkened by
the addition of the bank. 1t seems
that when farmers apply to banks as
usual for loans, they are referred to
the mill. The security demanded by
the mill is out of all proportion, fifty
cents loan on a sack of rice, and the
crop pledged to the mill for its handl-
ing.
What the outcome of this system of
operating will be, it is hard to fore
tell. We hear socialism talked every
where, by one class with hope, by an
other with fear. 1t is hard to make
slaves of good, straight, free Ameri-
can citizens. They refused the SEM
blance of slavery in l775, and in l776
declared their independence. When
we see the encroachments of capital
and combinations on the legitimate
rewards of labor, we wonder "What
will the harvest be-" JAS. ELLIS.

V,uits Of the Russe.Japanese War.


Following is a succinct statement OF
Ao GAINS and losses of the mikado
and the ear in the mighty conflict in
ae fer East;
WHAT JAPAN HAS WON.
The mikado's empire has secured a
Mace among the great powers of the
world.
Japan has wrested from Russia the
eontrol of the LaiO Tung peninsula,
including Port Arthur, Dalny and the
glopde and Elliot island, thus at one
stroke getting revenge for past indig-
mites and what, to her, are the prime
fruits Of victory.
By Japan'S victories the empire has
bped Russia to Concent to the open
door for all nations in Manchuria.
A 'preponderant influence" in Ko.
ma has been secured, an influence
which admits the right of Japan to
give military and financial advice to
the emperor of Korea.
Japan obtains the retroceSsion to
China of the Eastern railroad, which
runs south from Hardin to Port Ar
thur, a change of control which will
aid Japan in a financial sense.
Japan has forced the limitation of
the Chinese concession of 1896, under
Ehich the cutoff" through northern
Manchuria was built to connect the
hanS.Siherian and the Ussuri rail
road so as to provide for the reten-
ton and ownership of the line by the
Chinese Eastern.
Jhe Japanese treasury is to receive
aliberal sum in payment for the care
ofRussian prisoners.
Japan'S fishermen secure the right
t0ply their trade in the waters of the
Russian littoral from Vladiyos-
hk north to the Behring sea.
WHAT RUSSIA HAS LOST.
Russia has lost It's position as a
ranking naval power. It's fleet in the
Pacific is cut to pieces and it's great
Baltic feet has been destroyed.
Russia has been routed from the
Lao Tung peninsula, from Dalny, the
S0nde and Elliott islands, and from
Port Arthur, the great harbor fort
