Gar to Review Sentence.

st. Petersburg.-Th sentence of
Alexis Alexievitch Souvenir, editor of
the Russ, to a years Imprisonment in
a fortress for incitation of the people
to high treason by publishing procla-
nations and statements designated to
instigate riot sedition and armed re-
volt, and tending to cause the bank
ruptcy of the state, is the general
topic of conversation in the capital.
AS Mr.. Souvenir is a member of the
nobility his case must be reviewed by
the emperor. The court has decided
with view to mitigation to recon-
mend a communication of the sentence
to three months. Conviction and a
sentence, however, is a heavy blow to
an editor of NJ. Souvenirs standing.

Novel Means of Draining by Means
of Wells.
The drainage of swamp lands by
means Of drilled wells has received the
attention Of Robert E.IHorton Of the
Uuited States Geological Survey. The
manner in which these wells should he
constructed IS set forth in paper incIud-
ed in Water Supply and Irrigation Paper
No. l45, the annual publication entitled
contributions to the HydrOlogv of the
Eastern United States"
In the drift covered areas of the north

shaped depressiOns or "kettle holes"
without natural outlets, many of which
are occupied by swamps or ponds. II

drained into deep-drilled wells.
To drill such wells an ordinary we'll
driiler's outfit is necessary. The average
cost OF B inch well, including casing
should not exceed 5 foot.
The mouth of the well should be in an
excavation below the bottom of the

brick catch basin with ample screen

The effectiveness of these wells depends

tissure or pOrus stratum of sand and
gravel and ~ upon the underground
waters rising to height below the bot
tom OF the pond. Ii these conditions
are right the water enters the we'll

Q. Earl Bishops application for a
franchise for an automatic telephone
system in Colfax has proved to be a fake.
Bishop has no means of putting in the
girlless system and, as was predicted in
The Gazette, was seeking a franchise
only as a means of holding up the
original company or selling it as a
speculation
Bishops responsibility il demon
strated TO the satisfaction OF the city
officials in the following letter 60 City
Attorney Hill written by Charles E.
Sumner, president of the home Tee
phone & Telegraph company of Port
land:
"Mr. Bishop was in our employ as
solicitor and we afterwards sent him to
Tacoma while the franchise was there
pending to demonstrate the automatic
telephone. He has no connection what
ever with the company and could not
install an automatic telephone system if
he should get a franchise as we control
that system for the states of Washing
ton and Oregon.

This would probably touch Colfax and

I'VE are now installing a system in
Portland, Ore, and are commencing the
construction of plants in both Tacoma

IN all the towns Of the states OF Wash

ent exchanges do not now exist. 1t is
our purpose to connect all these ex-
changes, together with any other exist
ing Independent companies, with long
distance lines"
In view of the above the city council
will refuse to act upon the Bishop appli.
cation for telephone franchise.

Whitman County Asked to Com
tribute Share of Wheat,

Judge S. ]. Chadwick has started q
vigorous movement to raise Whitman
county's share Of the Washington state
contribution of wheat for the famine
stricken sufferers in Japan. Circular
letters and subscription blanks have
been sent out. In his letter the Judge
says:
Reliable reports indicate that, unless
relieved, more than 100000 Japanese
lives will be sacrificed in this famine, and
not only do the impulses OF charity
prompt us to give to these people out OF
our abundance, but, with an open door
to the orient, which can only come
through the continued friendship of the
japanese people, it is most important to
the agricultural and Industrial interests
OF the state of Washington that all act

ANOTHER GRAIN FIRE.

Another grain fire was narrowly averted on the Yaeger ranch yesterday
 morning, in hundred acre field of grain which belongs to Chas. Holts. About 3 o'clock, just as the cook of the heading outfit was getting up to prepare breakfast, fire was noticed near the center of the field. Fortu- nately the early morning dampness and the lack of wind prevented the fire from making much headway. A tch full of water was running close by and with the aid of buckets and sacks. the fire was extinguished before but little of the grain had been burned. As this is the third time fire has started in MT. Holts' field this season and as
