ORDERS TO LEAVE COUNTRY.

Immediately after the trial Prince Peter wa,
ordered by his cousin Napoleon III to leave ths
country, and withdrew to Belgium, where tina
outbreak Of the found him After Sedan
his allowance stopped. and finding his appeals
to Napoleon III ignored he proceeded to Eng
land On one memorable occasion he made an
attempt to secure an interview with the ex-
Emperor at Chiselhurst, but was met IN the
grounds by Eugene. who not only ordered
him off the place but threatened to in
woke the aid of the police unless he quilted
England once. He thereupon withdrew ID
Belgium. leaving in England Justine Rufiin and
the two children whom she had borne him.
namely Roland. and Jeanne, now married 10
the Marquis de Villeneuve- There has always
been certain amount of doubt and mystery
with Justine Rufflin. According 70 the laws OF
France which were in force throughout ths
reign OF Napoleon III. no member OF hts fam
fIy could contract valid marriage without his
authorization to marry Justine Ruffiin, knowing
full we'll that the necessary permission would be
refused by the Emperor But he is said to have
married her after the downfall or the empire
A variety Of dates have been given 10 this al
legged marriage, even in the various issues Of
the Alrnanach de GOtha. But the Iact remains
that as long as Prince Peter alive and had
any say in the matter he figured in the pages
of the Almanach de Gotha as bacneior. and
passed officially such ANY reference 70 tne
Almanachs de GOtha prior TO 1880 viii snow
this II was only several years after his death.
not indeed until Roland had secured throusn
the Intervention OF the American-Dorn countess
de Trobriand the hand and fortune OF Mare
Blanc, that the Almanach de Gotha conde-
sceuded to take any notice OF Els existence or
to intimate that he was the son or Prince
peter or that the latter had ever been married
That Prince Peter would not have toIerated

JOSEPH CANNON
SPEAKS HIS MIND

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 1s.-Je-
seph G. Cannon, of Illinois, according
tn an editorial yesterday in the New
York Sun, which is anti-administra-
ton, a year ago declared with every
appearance of sincerity, not to say ex-
citement, that what the country needed
above all other things was a chief exc
cutive who would keep on his own
side of the fence. attend to his own
business and leave the judicial and leg
alive branches free to discharge their
respective duties"
warming to the subject and evident
!, cbating under a sense Of bitter prov
ooation he is said to have added.
"The republican party must offer the
American people that kind of presi-
dent next time, or it had better go ou'
of business"
The alleged declaration has aroused
,,uch interest here, because 1t Is as
s,n,ed to be an animadversion on the
white House occupant and because the
spn, speaking apparently with authori'
totive knowledge, declares the state
n,ent was not intended for publication
nor has 1t even been limited at in th'
newspapers

NFZPERCE, Ida, Oct. 19.-The
grain crop of the Nezperce prairie will
be controlled by cooperative asso-
citation of farmers who will hold their
crop and establish a pool which will
be sold when the desired price has
foen offered.
The organization was started by a
number of prominent farmers residing
in the section of the prairie north of
Nezperce and the membership has
now been swelled to 200. The farmers
allege the grain companies have been
unfair in the matter of prices for the
prairie crop and propose to take their
grain out of the hands of the local
dealers.
The local grain companies have eff
fected a compromise on prices in this
| locality and as a result wheat has de-
clined cents, barley cents and oats
s cents. The war price for cereals was
wheat, 6S cents; barley, 95 cents, and
oats, $1.10

of his attitude toward the presidential
nomination when in the course of an
address at a dinner given in his honor
by the Republican club he said:
Il do not seek any public Office.

any convention, and with reference to
the election of any delegate to any

or thought of influence, protest or re-
prisal in the executive chamber"
Additional significance was given his
speech tonight by reason OF the fact
that he took occasion to refer to his
republicans and the Independent
league on the New York county ticket.
In this particular he said:

TkFT'S APPEALS
TO YOUNG men

In an Interview published in the New
York Times, Secretary of War Taft
appeals to the young men to give their
services to the country. He is quoted
in part as follows:
Wealth can give no felicity like that
which comforts the man who has iden-
ufed himself with something bigger
than himself.
Unless it is recognized by its young
men that there are careers other than
money making and the pursuit of
pleasure; unless the spur of lofty, un-
selfish and patriotic motives is strong
enough to turn them to the service of
their country, a republic is in bad
way indeed.
"I acknowledge the necessity of the
material pursuits. None of them is in
danger of being neglected by Ameri-
cans. But there are interests which
are not material and there is work to
be done which is not that of business.
The very possibility of conducting
tablished by government-and govern
ment is itself sort of business, or
profession, or, at all events, duty,
which has to be undertaken by some
one.
"I say to you that if the young men
of this country, enchanted by the gilt
tering prizes of commercial life, close
their eyes to the l0fty duty of patriot
ism, forget that their country calls no
inconsiderable number of them to her
own definite, professional service, alas
for the country!
"If the instructed, disinterested ana
patriotic abilities, especially OF its ed
, ucated youth, are not at the call of the
| country, alas for it, and alas for them
/ To little avail have they read their
Plato and been told that they who do
not take their share in the government
shall be slaves of a government by
the more ignoble-
'The service of yourg men of wealth
is likely to be especially efficient, be-
/ cause their income makes them inde-
pendent. The indifference they would
feel with regard to the emoluments oil
ONCE would tend to make them faith
full, independent. conscientious ONCE
holders.
"As to rewards, do not talk OF re-
wards. For the class OF men to whom
I would have the idea of public serv-
ice appeal the matter Of rewards woulf
be irrelevent.
II say to you that there are rewards
which are unknown to him who seeks
only what he regards as substantial
ones. The best of all is in the pure
| Joy of service. To do things that are
worth doing, to be in the thick OF 1t
ah! that is to live.
! "The poor man who chooses this wa!
will have to live plainly, as things 81

MAYOR HEITFELD
IN STATEMENT
Charter Provides for Re-
mOyaI Of Officers if
Taxpayers Elect

"The comparison of salaries sub
mitted by Mr.. Williams in his article
annearing in the morning paper may
or NAV not be correct" said Mayor
Heitfeld today, when asked relative to
the city's salary list and the sugges-
+ions contained in Mr.. Williams con-
tribution.
"I am unable to satisfy myself as to
what portion of the salary roll in par
ticular Mr.. Williams objects; whether
II is the salary of mayor and council
or that of the city's appointive officers.
If he objects to the former, can only
sav that the present council is not re-
sponsible for that. The salary of $500
per annum for mayor and 5000 per
annum for each member of the council
was fixed by the legislature number
of wears ago and has remained undis-
turbed ever since. AS to the salaries
for the appointive officers, we are only
paying what the conditions demand.
I do not deny that am a believer
in fair and just compensation for labor
performed, and 1 certainly believe it
good policy to pay living salary so as
not to give any of the employees an ex-
cuse to graft.
In fixing such salaries we did not
paid by any other city, may its name
be Moscow, Culdesac or Spokane. We
were governed by the conditions as
they exist in Lewiston.
Mr.. Williams statement that our
salary list amounts to three -fourths
of the city's revenue is not correct. Our
revenues amount to nearly 100000 an
nually, while Mr.. Williams seems to be
putting them at about $4,000.
"As to Mr.. Williams suggestion
that the present administration will
get under cover from the wrath of the
big stick in the hands of an out
ragged people, l have only to say, i
the people are dissatisfied, as on'
would infer from Mr.. Williams article
they need not wait until next OF any
succeeding regular election to r1t
themselves of the present administra
ton. Section 9. chapter of the neV
city charter provides for the remova
of any elective officer.
"AIl that Mr.. Williams or any OF hi
dissatisfied friends need do is to circu
late petitions and get the signatures
qualified voters equal in nuTpber to 2
per cent of the vote cast at the las
election for the present incumbent
and file the same with the city CLERK
The council will then, under the char
ter, be compelled to call special elec
ton to decide whether or not tn
present incumbents shall remain
office.
If Mr.. williams believes there
really such widespread dissatisfaetlo
as his article suggests, l, as mayor
the city, respectfully invite him to cir
culate such a petition at once, as l. lo
one, do not want to serve the citizen
of Lewiston if my administration
