FIRST STBACKDOWN
Japan Will Take Back What IL Has Been Saying About Our
 Naval Officers
EXPERT PRAISES THEM

Tokio, July 10.-The Hochi will tomorrow withdraw the interview with Admiral Sakamoto, which 1t re- gently published, in which the ad- miral was quoted as saying that American naval officers were brill liant social figures, but deficient in professional training and practice, and that the crews of American ships would retreat rather than fight Japan.
 Simultaneously with the with draNal of this ipteryiew the Hochi will publish an anonymous interview with Japanese naval expert, highly eulogistic of the efficiency of the present navy and the nigh standard of its gunnery.

Woman Sues for Divorce and Man Sues for Tenement.

Vincent Brukniss, who was before the court the other day for beating his wife. ,has been sued for divorce. Mrs BruknIss claims her husband has been intolerably cruel to her the past year or so. The occasion of his pres ence in court was because he beat his wife Saturday and put his child, all most nude, out doors. The little one is about year old. Attorney Lauber has the case and he made II returnable in the superior court in New Haven.

He will see at glance that the Sand

state of comparative isolation, amid a
vast expanse of sea; and, again, that

ITO have central position such as
this, and to be alone, having no rival
and admitting no rival are
conditions that at once fix the atten-

this striking combination is TO be added
the remarkable relations borne

TIME For ACTION.

So much for past opinion. The rapid
ly expanding commerce of the Pacific.
the approaching completion Of the Pam
anna Canal, the phenomenal rise and
energy of the japanese nation, and
other circumstances are drawing atten-.
tion now as never before to the neces-.
sity of developing Pearl Harbor. This,
harbor was visited last summer alone
by the Secretary of Commerce and La
Dor and twenty-nine members of Cons
gress, besides other officials of the Fed
erai government OF all who have Wis
tied it | have yet to learn of one who
has not been profoundly impressed with
the magnificenee of its size, the depth
of its water, it's absolute safety. its
unique strategic position, and the COM
parative ease and inexpenstveness with
which it may be opened to commerce
and protected from enemies. To see
is to be convinced. The concensus Of
opinion of those who have seen or had
occasion to inform themselves seems
to be that the time has now come for
the action which has so long been fore
seen to be ultimately necessary.

this is, of every point of our coast
line from Puget Sound to Mexico.
Were there many others available we
might find it difficult to exclude them
all There is, however, but the one.
Shut out from the Sandwich Islands as
a coal base, an enemy is thrown back
for supplies of fuel to distances of
$500 or 1000 miles-or between 1000
and 5000 going and coming-an i'm
pediment to sustained maritime opera
tions well nigh prohibitive
1t is rarely that so important factor
in the attack or defense of a coast
line-of a sea frontier--is concentrated
in a single position, and the circum-
stance renders doubly imperative upon
US to secure it if we righteously can.
In 1875 the United States insisted
as one of the considerations for its
reciprocity treaty with Hawaii that the
latter should not in any way grant any
special privilege or right in any port
to any other government; and, upon
the extension Of the treaty in 1887,
that the United States should have the
exclusive right to enter Pearl Harbor
and establish a naval station there.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1907-12-16

This is not a matter of mere local
interest, nor of value mainly to Ha-
wall; it is prominently matter of
national concern. Hawaii, it is true,
as the territory most directly affect
ed, is a deeply interested party, but
it is equally true that the benefits to
be derived by her from the proposed
action would be for the most part
merely incidental to those that would
accrue to the nation at large. The es-
Enlistment of a naval station and con
structiOn of Notifications would afford
her the protection which she, as the
outpost thus equipped, would afford the
western coast and all American com
meree on the Pacific. The opening of
the harbor and construction of wharves
and drydoeks would bring to her the
benefits that would naturally flow from
the full performance, thus made posi-.
bic, of her part as the halfway sta.

Or Put Up Ten Million Dollars fol
School Lands

Congressman Burton L. French
has stated proposition that is of
vast Importance to the people of
Idaho. 1t relates TO Idaho's rich
heritage in school lands now tied
up in forest reserves in this state.
The national government has prac-
tically confscated these lands. In
a speech at Twin Falls few days
ago, Mr.. French made use of the
following clear cut language:
Within the forest reserves in
Idaho are about one million acres
of land belonging to the public
school system of Idaho. The en-
abling act under which Idaho be-
came state gave this land to the
public school system of our state
The same thing was done in other
states of the great west. A limit
was placed upon the price of this
land of ten dollars per acre, below
which it cannot be sold. Similal
land outside of the reserves have

Fertility of Bench Lands.

M. M. Fry. the we'll known pio-
neer, is completing a large new
residence on his two-acre tract on
the Northside. He has a very
pretty location, in grove of pines,
which present natural park-like
appearance. In addition to his
two-acre tract, he tas bought a
60-foot frontage, the width of a
block, in front of his acreage, Civ
ing him a T-shaped tract. The
two-acre tract was covered With a
dense growth Of pine and tamarack
three years ago. He had it cleared
and the greater part planted to
fruit. The trees are already pro-
ducing and the fruit can not be ex-
celled in quality.
While the land is bench land,
and has no irrigation, the products
Of the soil are simply wonderful.
AS an instance. he has sold S4S
worth of cucumbers off of a space
about 40 feet square. while at the
end of the season sacks full were
given away. Potatoes and carrots
have grown to prodigious size, and
corn and other products have done
equally we'll.
Mr.. Fry is doing a great service
to this locality in demonstrating
what our bench lands can produce
when properly cultivated, after the
pitch and like ingredients are
worked out of the soil. The fertili-
ty and great area of these bench
lands tributary TO Bonners Ferry
will be great source of wealth in
the course of few years,

NEW MAIL TRAIN
Spokane International Gets Contract and Bon
ners Ferry Additional Mail Service

as heretofore. Under such condi-
tons, mail for these points will be
delivered a day or more sooner
than under the present system.
Under the new schedule which
goes into effect on October 10, the
Soo-Spokane train will make direct
connection at Spokane with the
o. R. & N. afternoon train to Port
land. The train of the former
road will therefore probably get
the major portion, if not all of the
Portland mail at St. Paul, as it
will be in a position to deliver it
in shorter time than the other
roads.
Railway and postal men look
for fast train war between the
Soo-Spokane and the other roads,
principally the Great Northern, for
the mail business.

The Bonner Reading Circle

What will be known as the Bon
ner Reading Circle is being estab-
lished by J. B Brody, of Brody's
Pharmacy. This is for the pur-
pose of giving his customers the ad-
vantage of lot of good reading at
minimum cost for the long win
ter evenings.
Each and every member is al
lowed to choose his or her own book,
with the restrictions that their
book must be popular, lately pub
lished book, and that it is the priv
ilege of each member of the club
to read this book When books are
chosen, members are allowed ten
days in which to read the samoa
penalty of five cents a day is at
tached when books fail to reach
membership headquarters within
the above mentioned time. Their
name is placed in the back of the
book chosen, together with a COM
plete list of membership books and
the owners, with a copy of rules
and regulations governing the dis
tribution of books.
The members name and book is
also upon a page in a record book
and when book chosen is read
through, it is returned and checked
off of the record book and then the
book taken in place of the one re-
turned is charged against the mem
Der, thus avoiding lost books, by
knowing exactly where each 5ool
is. No members will be allowed t
exchange books with each other
without first coming to the druI
store and having the recort
changed, and the books are not al
lowed to be loaned to friends-mem
bers OF the club only are allowed t.
read the same.
When the books have complete
the circle they are returned to tn
owners.
Mr.. Brody desires that all thos
who wish to avail themselves {
this privilege would register wit
him as soon as convenient, thu
e giving him the early opportunit
t OF ordering books that he might M

times ten dollars per acre. The
average sale of lands last year by
our state land board Melted the
state nearly twice this price per
acre This vast tract of land be-
longing to the state, and now held

pay the state ten dollars per acre
for this land. or to arrange some
plan by which ten dollars per acre
may be realized. This is your land.
1t does not belong to the United
States, nor to the people of other
states. 1t belongs to you for the
benefit of our schools. Think what
an endowment that will be for the
maintenance of our schools. The
