State Highway Department.

Virginia is to have state highway
department. The bill, which has passed
the senate, provides for a state
highway commissioner, to be appointed
by the governor and confirmed by the
legislature, and an assistant, both Of
whom must be civil engineers, and
the commissioner, together with the
professors Of engineering in the Uni
versity of Virginia, the Military insti-
tute and the Polytechnic institute, are
to constitute the highway commission
Local authorities are to apply to the
commissioner when they desire perma-
nent road improvement, and on his adj
vice the work will be undertaken. The
county is to supply necessary materials
and tools, and the state will supply
convict labor free of cost to the local
tty. The first year will necessarily be
largely devoted to preparation and Or
ganization, after which a liberal state
aid measure is expected.

CUPID BUSY In
CHOUTEAU COUNTY.

Miss Monte Frink, of Douglas, GA,
was this week pleasantly surprised in
Hayre, and as a result became bride
in this city instead of in Great Falls
as she had anticipated. Miss Frinl
was travelling to the Cascade county
city to meet Herbert G. Anderson,
whom she intended to them and there
at once marry. Mr.. Anderson was even
more eager for the nuptials than was
his bride, and he came on to Hayre
to hasten them. The result was that
the two welded twenty-four hours at
least before the time the fondest an
ticipations of either had provided.
The groom was provided with Ii
cence which lie secured in base en-
route at Fort Benton, and the cere-
mony Was performed at the mnnse
by the Rev. F. W. Poole Of the First
Presbyterian church. Mr.. Anderson is
a delivery clerk in the post office in
Great Falls.

report sent out over the AS
ISOLATED Press wires from North va
kima, Wash, is of more than usual
inte1vs in Havre. the leading traffic
station of the Great Northern road
between Spokane, Wash, and Minot,
n. 1.-The report in short matre de-
clares that James J. Hill, who con-
trolls both the Northern Pacific and
the Great Northern systems, has de-
talmined 10 transfer as naar'y a
possible all the through freight of his
lines 10 the Great Northern rain oad
and at the same time 10 dievrt all the
overland passenger traffic over The
Northern Pacific. The North Yakima
informant of the Associated Press de-
clareG also, that Pres ideEt Howard
Elliott would soon resign from the
Northern Pacific road, as would like
wise Vice President Ivy. He ds-
clafed' that within q few months only
ore through passenger train would
be run daily on the Great North IN
road, while there would be no through
freiShts on the Northern Pacific. He
declared, freight could be moved
mere rapidly on The Great Nor hern

Trade for good to choice ranger S
has shown slightly stronger tone late
this week than noted in the early
and middle days, the better grades
regaining DECLINE of loo forced
during the first part of the week,
says the Chicago Drovess' Journal of
last Saturday. Medium and plain
classes, however, have sold slowly in
sympathy with a drop in the price
basis for natives, and most Late sales
were 10c under the prices noted at
the close a week ago.
There is less disposition shown in
the range country TO crowd the mar
ket heavily now, and traders feel that
continued conservative shipping oper-
ationE cannot but strengthen the 81
tuation some from the present weak
ness. Receipts this week have been
quite moderate, totaling 24,500 against
$4,000 a week ago and $4,000 a year
ago. In the season to date arrivals
stand at 10000, comparing with 81 900
a Year ago.

We're this week welded at the home

Dragging South Kansas Roads.

The three rural route carriers from

Of the agitation recently started when

the Santa Fe railroad stopped there
and D. Ward King made practical
demonstration of the possibilities Of
the "split log" drag. At that time
seventy-flve farmers and business men

house by this plan would take les S

RUSSIAN CRISIS
IN PARLIAMENT
CONTINUED from Page One,

stood like a stone wall against this
His steadfast friendship for the Jews
has subjected him to constant attacks.
His enemies have accused him of being
a Jew, of being bought by the Jews,
etc. When he discovered the anti
Semitic agitation he came to the front
and nipped it in the bud, and he is
now issuing daily telegraphic tnstruc-
tions where there is the slightest indi-
cation of Jew batting,
"Of course it is possible that slight
anti-Semitic manifestation will occur
during Easter but as long as Count
Witte is premier, massacres are impos-
sible. Nevertheless, in the presence of
this state of feeling the government
cannot assume the responsibility for
promulgating a law of equality; the
parliment itself must decide the ques-
ton of the status of the Jews. This
is one of the questions to which the
parliament should Immediately address
itself.
"The most important question, how
ever. and the one on which the future
of the country and it's prosperity de-
pend, is the adoption of some method
of satisfying the land hunger of the
peasants who comprise eighty per cent
of Russia's immense population. Many
projects have been submitted to the
government and Premier Witte has a
mass of information on the subject,
but instead of presenting project, the
government would prefer to leave a So
luton of the question, if possible, to
parliament.
Regarding the financial outlook,
the present difficulty in securing a
loan is due more to the political situa-
ton abroad rather than to internal
conditions, as foreign financiers realize
that they can obtain better terms for
loan now than after parliament
meets"
In conclusion, speaking of the health
of the premier, the Associated Press
was given to understand that Count
Witte was almost on the verge of ?
breakdown. /

not merely met, but whom Wilder can
really say have been his friends, and
his collection of autograph letters is un-
questionably the most valuable private
collection eXtant.
So the man who has entertained
kings, presidents and the nobility of
intellect as we'll as the nobility of birth,
comes to Los Angeles with his keen
humor and original stories.

TIFLIS, ,Transcaucasia, March 25.-
The Georgians presented the viceroy OF
the Caucasus with a demand for the
autonomy of their church. When the
kingdom of Georgia. whose heroic peo-
pie upheld the banner of Christianity
in the mountains of the Caucasus fol
centuries against the hosts of the
prophet became utterly exhausted by
continual wars with the Turks and ac-
cepted the rule of Russia in 1901, 6
treaty was made providing that Russia
should respect the Georgian kings, rec
ognize the autocephalous character OF
the church, grant the Georgians immu-
nifty from Russian military conscrip-
ton and not interfere with their Ian
guage, schools, etc.
The Georgian monarch, however, was
Immediately suppressed. The people
were powerlesS to resist, and one by
one the political liberties guaranteed
disappeared. The church alone, with a
Georgian eX-arch, continued as a ma
tional institution until after the Russo
Turkish war, when it also succumbed
to the process of classification, being
now presided over by a Russian ex-
arch and administered by the synod
of st. Petersburg.
Some of the old nationalistic aspira-
tions of the Georgians were revived by
the reform movement in Russia, and
there was even an incipient movement
in favor of trying to restore the old
kingdom of Georgia. The leaders of the
race, however, realized that to separate
from Russia would only leave the
Georgians at the mercy of the Turks
and decided to content themselves with
trying to free their church from Rus
sian control.
The viceroy promised to lay the mat
ter before the authorities at st. Peters
burg.
