JAPANESE TERMS
THOUGHT ABSURD
RUSSIA DOES NOT CONSIDER
HERSELF CRUSHED
SHE IS STILL FULL OF FIGHT
official and Public Sentiment Agree
That Unless Demands Are Ma
terlalIy Modified Further
Discussion Is Useless

BY Associated Press.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 14.-The
Associated Press is in q position to
declare that practically the only hope
entertained In high Russian official
quarters for a peace agreement at the
conference at Portsmouth lies in the
expectation that Japan will recede ma
terially from her terms as published.
officials and public sentiment regard
ing the possibility of peace, as outlined
to the Associated Press by one official
who has constant and close relations
with the highest authorities, is as fol-
lows:
"That the terms are regarded in their
entirety as quite impossible of accept
ance, and close scrutiny has not re-
moved the very unfavorable impression
their first reading has produced here.
If they are not modified, especially in
the matter of indemnity and territorial
concessions, peace, 1t is thought, is i'm
possible, and the continuance of the
negotiations useless.
Russia is honestly and sincerely de-
sirous of securing an honorable and
lasting peace, and to this end has sent
her plenipotentiaries to Portsmouth.
They did not journey thither merely to
learn the Japanese demands-the ma
ture of their credentials proves that
but they went in an earnest endeavor
to do everything possible to terminate
the war in a manner compatible with
the dignity of a great nation.
1.-THE Japanese terms are regarded in
Russia as a demand which might be
made upon an utterly crushed and
powerless enemy, but it is absurd to
propose them to a power like Russia
which has half million men in the
field facing the enemy

and hated him. He thought of John
Burt and pitied him. Neither should
stand in his way.
Could she be engaged to Arthur
Morris? Now that he had met Jessie
Garden he found himself unconscious
ly repeating John Burt's indignant
declaration: at is a lie; an Infamous
liei" If an engagement did exist, it
should be as barrier of mist to his
ardent progress. But she did not,
she could not love Arthur Morris.
Did John Burt love her? Did she
love John Burt?
These were the singing, burning
questions which scared his brain, but
the clamor of his conscience was
drowned in the louder din of his pas
sion. He had not yet reached a point
where, with calm selfishness he could
voice the brutal aphorism of moral
and physical desperadoes: "All is
fair in love and war" He was eager
to clear himself of self-accused dis
loyalty to John Burt, and he clutched
at any defense which would serve as
possible justification or extenuation.
John Burt was his friend, the found
er of his fortunes; the loyal, trustful
comrade to whom he owed all he was
or could hope to be. Blake knew this,
and yet, with the truth confronting
him and pleading for justice, the So
phistic arguments and evasions of a
vaulting passion came readily to his
lips.
How do | know John loves her?"
he pleaded. "He has not told me so.
He has sent her no word. He could
have done so easy enough. She does
not know if he be dead or alive. Is
that the way for lover to act? II
John has lost her it is his own fault.
Perhaps he gave her up long ago.
Honestly, believe his hate for Nor
ris is more to him than his affection
for Jessie Garden"
Thus quibbled James Blake. Awak-
ened love loosens a million eloquent
tongues to plead for self, and palsies
the voice which should speak for 9TH
ers. The love of a man for a woman

er of tidings from John Burt? Per
haps John was dead? II alive, why
did he not come himself?
And you knew John Burt l re-
member now that he often spoke of
you. He always called you Jim and
rarely mentioned your last name. And
you ran away from home Did you
ever meet John Burt in California,
Mr.. Blake?"
James Blake was not deceived by
tine careless tone in which she asked
this question. With grim joy he re-
fected that Johns injunction for Sc
crecy was still in force. He must
either mislead Jessie Garden or prove
false to his friend; but for the first
time the deceit was his own and not
a sacrifice for another.
"Of course knew John Burt, " said
Blake refiectively Dear old John;
owe him thirty-five dollars. When I
ran away from home he gave me
every dollar he had, and I've not seen
him since. Did you say he had gone
to California? Is that so? No,
never saw him there. And you knew
him? Really, Miss Garden, almost
feel as if we were old acquaintances.
All, here comes Mr. and Mrs. Bishop
I had no idea it was so late"
Mr. Thomas Bishop was introduced,
and after a brief conversation, in
which Jessie acquainted her uncle
with the fact that their guest was
formerly from Rocky Woods. Blake
excused himself. He accepted an in
vitation to call again.
''Then we will continue our recol-
lections of Rocky Woods, Miss Car
den," he said on leaving.
Instructing his coachman to drive
to his apartments, James Blake closed
his eyes and attempted to calmly re-
view what had happened He found
it impossible. One emotion held mas
terry over him-he was in love, madly
and defiantly in love with Jessie Car
den. He thought of Arthur Morris

Proved Beyond a Doubt.

Middlesex, N. Y, July 3.-(Special)
That Rheumatism can be cured has
been proved beyond a doubt by Mrs.
Betsey A. Clawson, well known here.
That Mrs. Clawson had rheumatism
and had it bad, all her acquaintances
know. They also know she is now
cured. Dodd's Kidney Pills did it.
Mrs. Clawson tells the story of her
cure as follows:
Il was an invalid for most five years
caused by Infiammatory Rheumatism,
helpless two-thirds of the time. The
first year l could not do as much as a
baby could do, then I rallied a little
bit and then a relapse. Then year
ago the govt set in my hands and feet.

gust, 1903, when my husband died /
could not ride to the grave.
81 only took two boxes of Dodd's
Kidney Pills and in two weeks l could
wait on myself and saw my own wood.
I dug my own potatoes and gathered
my own garden last fall. Dodd's Kid
nelly Pills cured me-"
Rheumatism is caused by uric acid
in the blood. Dodd's Kidney Pills put
the Kidneys in shape to take all the
uric acid out Of the blood.

CHAPTER xxI-continued.

General Garden applauded vigor-
ously and demanded an encore. The
trio sang several songs, and the old
soldier lay back in his armchair and
let his mind drift back to the hours
when the one of whom Jessie was the
image lifted her sweet voice in the
ballads he loved to hear. At his re-
quest they sang Douglas, Tender and
True robin Adair," "The Blue
Bells of Scotland" Annie Laurie, "
and several old war songs.
Then Jessie proposed a rubber of
whist. and in the cut she became the
partner of James Blake. Jessie
played well and they defeated the
general and Edith

have wont" declared Jessie, her eyes
sparkling with pleasure. Papa and
Edith think themselves invincible.

Edith and the general to follow, she
escorted Blake to the great glass
house, with its arched roof and wilder
ness of palms, ferns and flowers.
Il know this is not much of treat
to you" ventured Jessie. 81 had for
gotten that you have spent all of your
life in California"
But l have not spent all of my
life in California" Blake said. Il
lived in California only seven or eight
years and had little chance to study
flowers. What little knowledge have
of flowers dates back to my boyhood
days in New England"
New England? What part of New
England, Mr.. Blake?"

proudly. 81 was born in Boston, less
than half a mile from where the tea
was thrown overheard. My mothers

Hancock once lived in the house
where was born. and Samuel Adams
was there many, many times. I'm as
much of a Hancock as Edith, though
she won't admit it. Don't you like

Mr.. Blake?"

from there to a farm near bingham.

did you live in Rocky Woods?"
The dark eyes opened wide and Jes-
sic looked wonderingly into Blake's
face.
''Why, yes, lived there for several
years. Do you mean to tell me that

John wesIey's Ideas on calling"

1t is pretty generally known that
John Wesley, during his unparalleled
apostolate of half century, Travelled
100000 miles and preached 10000 SER
mons, but comparatively few are
aware of the prodigious amount of lit
erary work he managed to accomplish.
His most curious and eccentric book
was entitled Primitive Physic; or, An
Easy and Natural Method Of Curing
Most Diseases" 1t was published In
London by Barr C Co. in the year
1743.
The preface is characteristic Of the
author. when man came first out of
the hands Of the Creator there was
no place for physic or the art Of heal
ing. But when man rebelled against
the Sovereign Of heaven and earth the
incorruptible frame put on corruption,
and the immortal put on Immortality"

THE EDNING OF SEOATO
 MITCHELL.

There is something inexpressioIy sad, though Illuminating, in the end ipg of Senator Mitchell, of Oregon. For nesrly 8 half century he was the idol of thousands of bis fellow citizens, For much of that time he was the ia vori,e son of his state, which he repre- sented in the United States senate most of the time since his first election to i: in 1873. He died yesterday Prac- tIcallv deserted and unmOurneu.
 This is a cbeerless example for him who, making practical politics a pro, fession, strives for the top and power for the sake of being on top ard pos sessing the power. Senator Mitchell was what could be called successful politician. and he was probably not more dishonest than many who are still 50 reckoned by the average citizen He took pay for ? 1ractIcing before one of the executive departments at Wash ington, It is said by Washington City lawyers that this had been a common practice amoug senators and represen- tattves for many years. One other sen ator, Burton, of Kansas, has been con victed of the same oGense NewsPa- pers have said that others, including an Idaho senator, would be prosecuted for the crime. The practice is a graf. that has been indulged in by those who were tn politics for what there IS in it. Senator Mitchell was of these who hap pened to be in the course of the whirl wind of reform that has been sweeping over the country. It stripped him iu such a way as to disclose what a mock cry are all honors which do not come to a man as incidents of upright con- duct and honest striving for that which i,r.gbt rather then as the soil object of this endeayor.
 However, after all is said and done, those are few who do not find in theirihear,s a warmer spot for the big, generous, pra tical politician who died yesterday at Portland, alone and friend less, than for the horde of unwhipped CUTS, whose coyoce-ike aPpCti,es had been appeased for 50 many years through his brilliant leadership, bu' who, when their beneiact5r was ip dire strait, refusing to call him friend. permitted him to make his last fight siugle-handed, while they whined for fayors at the heels of those who smo;e him.
The daily Alaskan., 1905-12-09

A Juneau paper says two of the three delecates selected by the Alaskan con. yen,ion recently held at Seattle are democratic politicians. The statement is au absolute untruth. Gly. Swine ford is democrat, it is true, but iJ is absurd to apply the term politician to him. The term politician, with the predx of political party, is defined as "oue who deyotes himself to the pro- motion of the interests of a political party" That does not apply to men who are working for the development of Alaska rather than in the interest of any party, as has been the case with Gov. Swineford since coming to this district. Another delegate, Dick Rany, and he has given more time to what might be called politics than any cne of the three delegates, is republican. Capt. Humphrey is a Yukon river transportation man. He is not, and never has been, a politician. The Daily Alaskan acknowledges ignorance as to what political party he belongs, or as to whether or not he belongs to any of them. Unless one calls those who are impersonally interested in civic mat ters as politicians the term as constant ly applied by lickspittle tories is the silliest kind of a mlsnomer, Those Alasksus who are practically interest ed in politics have little time to devote to territorial government for Alaska
