HARVARD OPPOSES THE

Reform Movement Backed by
Chief Executive Does Not
Find Favor.

NORTHEAST HARBOR, Me, Aug
27.-Harvard viii not stand for the
Carnegie Roosevelt innovation, accord
ing 10 President Eliot, who is stopping
here. Mr.. Eliot says the new style OF
spelling does not in the least appeal TO
him,
II suppose that President Roosevelt
has right TO write his message in any
style of orthography 10 which he may
incline, said he. ''but / think it will
be long time before such style as
that proposed becomes very popular or
takes great hold upon the public.
81 do not myself care for it, and it
is my opinion that the same view is
held by the majority Of leading edu-
Gators. There are some distinguished
men, such as President Butler of Co
lumbia, who have long favored it, but |
do not see that their work has brought
much of accomplishment,
1.-The English vii hardly adopt this
not only that the public printers would
be obliged TO make two sets of plates,
but all the present plates Of the stand

not like the looks of thru and tho

GREAT FOREST FIRES
IN BRITISH COLUMBIA
Flames Are Sweeping Over Val
dez Island and the DAM
age Is Heavy.

VANCOUVER, B. c., Aug, 27.-One
of the largest forest fires which oc.
Cured up-coast this season is now rag
ing on Valdez island Steamers which
arrived in Vancouver today were
somewhat delayed by dense smoke and
passengers say that in the vicinity of
the scene of the fire, massive clouds of
smoke entirely obliterate all view Of
the flames.
Nladez island is covered with a mag
nlflcent growth of frst-class timber and
many local timber holders have their
claims there. Forest preservation on
the island has caused anxiety in local
business circles, which is all the more
heightened by the fact that nothing
can be done to stop it. Rain is badly
needed along the coast.
Fire Warden Mckay stated TODAY
that the recent big bush fire near Cow
er point had done more damage than
was at first supposed. While the FIRE
destroyed large tract of timber. il
also burned the bridges and DESTROYED
the roads in the vicinity and the peo-
pie who live within the territory on
which the dam was destroyed will have
no access TO the water until new roads
and bridges are built.
The people in the vicinity" said
Mr. Mckay, will be practically des-
t1tute tins winter unless something is
done very quickly to relieve them and

OIL TRUST SEEKS TO
CONTROL D|ST|LLER|ES
Rockefeller People Said to Be
Reaching Out for the
Whiskey Business.

CHICAGO, Aug. 27-The Standard
Oil company has taken steps toward
acquiring ownership of all the principal
distilling plants in the United States.
A conference was held Friday last in
Chicago between representatives OF the
distilling interests and the Standard Oil
company.
A price has been set on every dis
tillcry In Peoria and Indications are a
deal will be effected and the plants will
pass into the hands of the Standard Oil
company soon.
1t is said the price asked was CON
sidered too high by the Standard Oil
people and the latter threatened if suit
able terms cannot be reached to build
distilling houses of their own. The chief
reason of this action on the part Of
the Standard Oil company will be the
recent passage Of the alcohol bill by
Congress; Experts employed by the
Rockefeller interests, after experiment
ing, reported their product cannot be
manufactured cheaply enough to make
1T serious competition Of gasoline, but
that it could be used in the manufac-
ture of mercerized cotton and other
fabrics and would be an extremely
valuable product TO control

LIVELY BIDDING FOR
LOTS IN RUPERT, IDA.
Sales Have Been Heavy, With
Prices Higher Than Has
Been Anticipated.
Special 10 The Tribune.

Special 10 The Tribune.
RUPERT, Ida, Aug, 27.-The bid,
ding is lively and competition is intense
in the public sale of lots in Rupert,
according to Col n, j. Sharp, Register
of the Haley Land Office. Up to date
$4,000 has been realized and only
about one-half of the lots have been of
fered. The merchan who have been
doing business in Rupert have pur-
chased their lots at the appraised value,
taking advantage of the special bill
passed by the last Congress, and today
was the first day of the public sale of
those remaining.
Although it has been widely circu-
lated that the appraisement Of lots was
too high, still people are more than
town of Rupert, as was evidenced to-
day when many lots appraised from
$500 TO s400 sold at more than double
that amount, Auctioneer NJ. j. O 'Brien
offered today all the unoccupied lots
lying north of F street, and up to date
the purchases amount TO 1876 lots, rea-
lizing to the reclamation department
s36, 500, more than four times the amount
realized at Hepburn. Many investors
are in the city from various cities
over the State~and it is expected that
tomorrow will see many new people in
the town, as greater number of choice
unoccupied lots will be offered then
than were offered today,
A great number Of private sales are
being made by persons who were en-
abled by the Dubois bill to purchase
at the appraised value and prices range
from $500 to $4,000 for location on the
square. There is no desire for any new
anpraisement in Rupert and there are
many investors already making ar
rangements for substantial buildings in
the business district
