DOLLAR SAVES A LIFE.
America Urged to Give $4,000, ooo
for Chinese Sufferers.

Shanghai, China. April 13.-Tele-
grams received here from 20 points in
the famine district reported that the
conditions are growing worse.
The Chinese government and people,
up to date, have contributed more than
four million dollars for famine relief,
and the sums received from all foreign
sources total half million dollars,
including the supplies on their way
from America.
The relief committee here is prompt
ly sending supplies to the front, but
the funds are not yet in its possession.
Measures adopted up to date are made
quate. Ten million persons are suffer-
ing from lack of food and facing starya-
ton.
A dollar, the relief committee re-
ports, will save one life until the har-
vest, June 25, and $40, 900, 900 is need
ed. The whole amount cannot be
raised in China. The situation is Edes-
perate, and Americans are urged to
give 100000 in the next three
weeks, not for Christian, but for hui
manitarian works. 1t is suggested that
it would be beet to cable money to the
consul here, James Linn Rodgers, as
supplies can be purchased in Shanghai.

PREMIER pEFIED BY PUBLIC.


St. ersburg, April 12.-Premier
stoIypin, in attempting to limit the
competence of the lower house of par
lament by forbidding its committees to
obtain statistics from the Zemstvos and
avail themselves of outside expert adj
vice, has been defied by the public.
President Goloyin had written curt
letter to the premier asking him on
what grounds and under what law he is
entitled to address such demands to the
imperial parliament. The law, Nj.
Golopin Gays, contains paragraph au-
thorizing the lower house OF parliament
to lnterpelIate the government but no.
where was there reciprocal right on
the part of the ministers.
The actions OF President Golcvin and
the budget committee were taken after
a long conference between the president
and leaders of all the parties in parlia-
ment except the extreme right, and
brings the issue squarely before the
cabinet.
The discussion OF the budget in COM
mittee is expected to last from four to
six weeks. The estimates probably
will be accepted, with minor changes
by the house, when presented.

OF the dirt excavated, and sanitation

those entries that are irregular or show
evidence Of fraad will be examined az
promptly as possible and appropriate

Mr.. BslIinger agrees with Mr..
Bourne that Oregon has suffered I'M
Justly In late years, and he is willing

COMING IN DRovEs.
Thousands of Homeseekers FIocs ng
Westward Daily.

Portland, April 11.-After making
careful estimate of the colonist business
coming West, A. D. Charlton, assistant
general passenger agent for the North.
ern Pacific, who has just returned from
the East, estimates that between 5000
and 1000 homeseekers are leaving the
Eastern gateways daily and that this
Tremendous movement will continue
during the season.
Mr.. Charlton paid particular atten-
tion to the colonist movement while
away. He personally visited the de-
pots, where crowds of west bound
homeseekers are fiocking to the trains
and crowding the coaches. Many, not
finding seats, are even willing to stand,
SO eager are they to get TO the new
promised land.
The Northern Pacific, according to
Mr.. Charlton, is hauling between $500
and 5000 colonisis out OF St. Paul,
Minneapolis and Duluth every day.
The Great Northern and 500" lines,
of course, takes great many more,
Taking the southern gateways into con-
sideration, Mr.. Charlton believes that
the total number leaving for the West
with the avowed intention Of making
their homes here will run close to 900
every day of the 60 day season.
