forms they have maintained and chung

have obtained were given them by A

ell acted as chairman in the alb
sence of President w. r. Sebree.
]. F. Herr acted as secretary.
The question of a rural mail route

turning via the bench was dis
cussed. Mr.. 6. B. Murray, who

crop in this section to be easily
worth 100000 this year.
Heretofore the mill business had
not been very profitable owing
toa lack of wheat. Henceforth
there would be no trouble along
that line. He also stated that
he. anticipated no trouble in in

Caldwell. 1t was decided to as

London, April 1O.---A Russian cor
respondent sends a curious story con-
cerning the dismissal of General Ku-
ropatkin, and vouches for its authen-
ticity. He says it is not surprising
that the recall of General Kuropatkin
has excited little comment in st.
Petersburg. Everybody expected it
after the fall of Mukden. The reason
is as follows: About six weeks ago
NJ. Demchinski, a Russian of high
standing and great personal favor
ite of the czar, wrote a long memo
randum from Manchuria, addressed,
| through NJ. Souvorin, the editor of
the Novoe Vremya, to the Russian
press and people.
| In this memorandum NJ. Deschins-
XII charged General Kuropatkin with
many offences, and accused him of
being entirely responsible for the
disasters to the Russian arms. A de-
tailed account was given of the con-
dition of affairs in Manchuria, and
opinion was expressed that if General
Kuropatkin was allowed to continue
in the position of commander in chief
Russia would never win a victory.
The most popular person in the Far
East, continued NJ. Deschinski, was
'papasha" C"Dear little father")
Linevitch, and he was also the only
military man with sufficient skill to
retrieve the Russian fortunes.
This communication created a great
sensation in st. Petersburg, and copies
of it were circulated all over Russia
after the editor of the Novoe Vrem-
va had first forwarded it to the car.
The latter had also received another
communication from the front to the
effect that Kuropatkin's plans were
to make grand stand at Mukden,
and that he had taken an oath on his
sword not to move an inch from that
place. The car decided to et Kuro-
patkin stand or fall by the oath he
had taken. So when the news of the
loss of Mukden was received he with
out any delay summoned the grand
dukes by telephone to an extrordi-
nary council, drew their attention to
NJ. Deschinski's charges and an
nounced Kuropatkins dismissal.
