count Of the numerous conflicting
interests. The people at Post Falls

the mills down the river also favor
this because II will give them water
20 float logs. The people Of
Occur d'Alens are not opposed TO
this, but do not want the channel
dredged out because IL may result Ia
lowering the lake. The steamboat
men aud Others take the same view of
the matter. The owners Of bottom
land around the lake arc opposed to
raising the water In the lake because
they fear that IL will cover some Of
their land, and the settlers up the

will hold the water back during food

Russian Soldiers Desire TO Remain

Associated Press Correspondent Visits
Russian Army Headquarters to See
How Prospect of Peace Is Viewed
Soldiers Cheer For Roosevelt.

Gunshu Pass, Manchuria, Saturday
Sept. "a correspondent of the As.
sociated press has made survey of the
Russian position along the entire
line from Mongolia to their present
headquarters, his object being to as
certain the manner in which the eff.
forts for peace is viewed by the army.
Negotiations will receive no official
recognition in the field prior to their
successful conclusion, the army keeping
in state of preparedness for battle
until the receipt of telegram from
Emperor Nicholas, declaring the treaty
to have been signed.
The soldiers were engaged in feast.
ing and other forms of celebration.
Thousands daily drinking to the health
OF President Roosevelt.
The correspondent was everywhere
asked by the men IL he was an Ameri.
can and on being answered in the af.
frmative they captured him and tossed
him many times in the air after the
manner of Cossaeks, while the of.
ieers gently protested tgainst the
seemingly questionable form of their ad.
miration.
Every where the soldiers eagerly
scanned the news and expressed thir
joy by singing which continued late in
to night, interspired at intervals with
cheering for Roosevelt.
Among the soldiers generally there Is
a feeling Of apprehension regarding the
internal affairs Of Russia and many ex.
pressed desire TO remain in Manehuria

POkITICAL DEMANDS IGNORED
Liberal Autonomy Is Granted To All
Universities Pending the Elaboration
of Permanent Regulations Along the
Same Lines.

st. Petersburg, Sept. lO.-An Imperial
Ukase was published this morning grant
ing a liberal measure OF autonomy to
the universities pending an elaboration
of permanent regulations along the same
lines.
This is considered as insuring the open
ing of the universities on September IA
and the resumption of the educational
life in Russia which has been at stand
still with the students and professors
in the higher schools on a strike since
last February.
The ukase fails to give The rlght OF
assembly or grant any other political
demands for which students have been
agitating, but the placing of the gov
ernment of the universities in the hands
of the professors, meets the principal
grievances of students in regard to the
purely academic life in which the facu-
lties and the students are thoroughly
in sympathy with each other because of
their common efforts to remedy their
grievances.
