V1adivostok, Against Which the Jap

Japan is planning land and sea cam
paign against Vladiyostok, Russia's re-
naming stronghold in the East With
the sickening fate of Port Arthur fresh
in mind, this latest frank and direct
avowal Of the japanese intention

The impregnabilty of Port Arthur
was for SO long a matter of uncertain

was disproved at such fearful cost
that the world will hesitate to believe
that Russia has still in her possession

Race for Rich Coal Fields.

Butte, May 3.-A Miner special from
Bridger, Mont, says there is race on
betwee, railroad surveyors to get into
the Bear Greek coal fields. Philadel-
phia capitalists are behind one set of
engineers, while the Burlington is said
to be sending party of 40 men into
the Bear Greek country from its Toluca-
Cody branch. The route of the Bur-
lington party is said to embrace Cooke
City and the Sunlight mining districts,
recognized as two of the best mining
sections in the state without railroad
outlet for their ores.

MAY WATER DEscHuTEs LAND.
Government Ready to Take Up Pro-
ject if Carey irrigation Fails.

Washington, May s. Information
which reaches Washington Indicates
that the reclamation service may yet
have an opportunity to irrigate in the
Deschutes valley in Eastern Oregon.
At the time the national irrigation law
was passed the reclamation service was
anxious to build an irrigation service
along the Deschutes, but found that
private enterprise had entered the field
and was already operating or preparing
it not been for this fact, the govern
ment would today be completing an ir-
rigation system that would irrigate far
more land in the Deschutes than will
ever be reclaimed by private enter
prise, and would probably have been
able to turn the water into the canals
not later than the coming fall or win
ter.
If private capital should decide to
withdraw from the Deschutes valley,
the government would be very glad to
enter that field, buy up what works
have already. been constructed, and
enter upon the irrigation of much
larger area than is now Intended to be
reclaimed. But the government is not
going to make any advances. Nor will
it pay fancy prices for such works as
have been constructed by private capi-
tai.
The situation in the Deschutes coun-
try is not altogether similar to that In
klamath basin. In the Deschutes, so
far as known, the community is salts
fed to have it's lands irrigated by pri-
vate capital, Notwithstanding private
capital will reclaim only the cream,
and leave forever barren large tract
that would be irrigated by the govern
ment. In the Klamath basin public
sentiment is unit in favor of govern
ment as against private irrigation.
This much is to be said: If private
capital goes ahead and completes it's ir-
rigation system according to present
plans, the government will never go in
and reclaim the outstanding lands.
Private interests are promising to irri-
gate only lands which can be watered
at minimum cost; the government
will not follow and undertake to irri-
gate adjoining lands where the cost will
be excessive unless it can have the en-.
tire field to itself. One of the prime
objects of government irrigation is te
reclaim lands in large areas, combining
cheap with expensive work, so as te
make the average cost within the reach
of the settler. The government is moi
taking up extremely expensive works
it cannot afford to; it is only irrigatins
where it knows it can recover the e4
penditure.

Paris, April 5.-A dispatch to the

reports that the Russian cruisers which
have had their headquarters at Vladi-
vostok since the outbreak of the war
with Japan have left that port. Mill

any prospect of relief. as was the case
for awhile at Port Arthur. 1t would
only be simple question of endur-
ance.
1t is undoubtedly fact that Vladi-
.vostok is even better provided to sus-
tain a long blockade than was Fort
Arthur. When Russia decided to make
it the terminus of the Transsiberian
road she began to build storehouses
and. military depots the like Of which

FRENCH sUPPLYsRUssIAN FLEET
Only Bluff at Neutrality Maintained in
Cochin China.

Hong Kong, May 4. - 1t is learned
from reliable source that the steamers
Eva, Dagmar and Bourbon, under
charter by the Russian government,
have been plying between Saigon and
the Russian Baltic feet, carrying to
the latter full cargoes of -four, rice,
lard, fish, vegetables, meats, and
enormous quantities of brandy and
wine. The latter has been with drawn
as sop to the neutrality regulations,
but the two former vessels are still en-
gagged in the work.
After the Bourbon had ceased her
trips, she was held up by the French
transports in the Saigon river and a
crew Of French marines placed aboard
to compel her to cease her trips"
The two vessels which are still in the
service were allowed to go on their way
unmolested.
A number of French transport steam
ers are cruising off the coast of French
Cochin China, ostensibly engaged in
safeguarding frances neutrality.
It is reported that American and
German correspondents at Shanghai
have chartered the steamer Wuchang
for the purpose of witnessing the COM
ing fight. The Wuchang flies the
French flag, but is believed to be owned
by Russia, and it is thought that her
real mission will be not so much to see
naval battle as to locate Togo's feet
for Rojestvensky's information.

Work of Mind Storm.

Omaha, Neb., May 4. = Three per-

collapse of a three-story building at
Thirteenth and Grace streets today.
The building was occupied by the Oma-
ha Casket company, and the killed

employees of the concern. The collapse
of the casket factory was due to a
heavy wind storm, which at point
near the factory assumed the proper
tions and action of small tornado.
The building was substantial, of brick,

-Bryan's Platform Safe.
Washington, May 3.-Hugh L. Bond,
of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, to-
day continued his statement before the
senate committee on interstate COM
merce. Asked as to what caused the
consolidation of railroads, Mr.. Bond
answered:
1.-THE antitrust act"
He explained that there was no
method Of preventing weaker lines
from cutting rates. The weaker lines
were taken in so as to prevent demoral-
ization OF rates.
Robert Mather, chairman of the ex-
ecutive committee of the Chicago, Rock
Island & Pacific railroad company, was
next heard. During his statement Mr..
Mather alluded to the assertion that, if
the government did not take hold of
rate making, there would be demand
for government ownership of railroads.

One OF the most important items
brought up for consideration at the
monthly meeting of the Mining
Men 8 association in Deadwood last
week, says the Black Hills Mining
Review. was the suggestion by one
OF the members that large guam
tity, at least ten thousand, maps OF
the Black Hills. showing all the
towns, railroads, mining districts,
prominent land marks, etc., be
printed and circulated. The fact
was called to the attention OF the
association that the Black Hills was
probably worse off, as far as maps
are concerned. than any other mir
ing section, and that it was impossi.
BILE to supply the daily demands
Several excellent maps OF various
sections are in circulation, but there
is none showing the entire Hills te
good advantane. The matter was
referred to the board of directors
with a request for prompt action.

That tella the story. Sanford
Dodge claims to present the classics
to rural audiences, thereby giving
them an opportunity Of enjoying
the great masterpieces. As mat
ter of fact, Mr.. Dodge is nothing
short of a fakir. His acting is far
short of what it should be. but even
if he was an artist-and he certainly
is not-the conditions above men
toned make any classical interpret
alton of Shakespeare's plays an
empty unsatisfying imitation.
Mr.. Dodge claims to play these
great pieces because they are classics
alone. We have strong suspicion,
the fact that no royalties can be-
collected may have good deal to
do with. Shakespeare is not alive
to protect his dramas from strlltting
country braggarts. and more's the
pity.
