FOR HOLLANDERS
FOR RAILROAD CONSTRUCTION

Vancouver, B. c., Jan. 4.-Judging
by an advertisement inDe Courant, an
Amsterdam (Holland) newspaper, cop
les of which have just been received
in Vancouver, the Grand Trunk Pa
|cific has given up all hope of securing
Japanese labor for the construction
of it's lines in Canada this year.
Twenty thousand Hollanders are
now being sought for construction
work.
All laborers between the ages of Is
and As years, according to the adver-
tisement, who are physically fit and
willing to work ten hours per day, will
be paid 5000 per week in Eastern
Canada and 1920 in Western Can
ada.
1t is frankly announced in the adj
vertisement that the duration of the
work will be seven or eight years, and
from this it would appear that the
road will not be half finished by 1911,
the year in which the company prom
ised to have it completed from coast
to coast.

MAJORITY TRUSTEES HAVE
POWER TO SELL MINES

Olympia, Jan. Trustees of a cor.
poration organized to buy and sell
mines have the right to dispose OF
the property if authorized by two
thirds of the stockholders, despite oh.
jections of the minority, according to
a decision of the state supreme court
in the Spokane case of H. LANCE
against the Reservation Mining and
Smelling Company. This company
had bought the Star and Washington
consolidated group in, the Colville re
serve, and, after spending $56,481.53
and taking out but $1,090.46, the trus-
tees were authorized to sell the prop
erty for $4,000. Minority stockhold-
ers brought this suit to prevent the
sale and lost in the lower court and
now on the appeal.

TRUSTS, TARIFF, RAILROADS
DECLARED PRINCIPAL IsslIes

Kansas City, Jan. Elm an inter.
view here Saturday William ]. Bryan
said that the trusts, and tariff and
railroad regulation would be the para.
mount issues in the campaign of 1908.
Mr.. Bryan said it was impossible to
determine at this time what the one
paramount issue would be.
On his way from Texarkana, Tex.
to Lincoln, Mr.. Bryan was in this city
an hour Saturday. He said:
4 "The tariff question is certain to be
a prominent issue. There are three
economic questions which seem likely
to divide attention, the trusts, the tar
If and the question of railroad regu.
lation. Students of these problems
differ as to their importance. They all
present the same fundamental issue,
namely, whether the government shall
be conducted in the interest of a few
favorites or in the interest of the
whole people"
How do you find the sentiment in
regard to proposed federal guaranty
of bank deposits?"
Sentiment in favor of it is growing
very rapidly" said Mr.. Bryan. "Oka-
homa has already established the sys-
TEN and the governors of Nebraska,
Kansas and Texas are being urged to
call special sessions for the purpose Of
inaugurating the system in their re-
spective states. I hope the present
congress will apply the system to ma
tiOnal banks"
Asked If he was candidate for
president, Mr.. Bryan replied that if
he is nominated he would run.
Mr.. Bryan spoke at Omaha last
night.

KENTUCKY TOBACCO WAR
GROWING VERY BITTER

Louisville, KY, Jan. Although all
is apparently quiet in the war between
the tobacco growers of Kentucky and
Tennessee against the American To
bacco Company, the developments re-
Gently have given great uneasiness.
The town of Russellville, which has
been raided by Night Riders, is now
quiet, but the sheriff and his deputies,
the police and the citizens are on
the alert to prevent any repetition of
the outrages. It was decided by the
peace officers and the leading citizens,
in view of the improbability of another
raid, that the governor would not be
asked for troops.
The most disturbing news has been
the failure of the Burley Tobacco So
ciety, at Chester, KY, and the chief
buyers for the American Tobacco
Company to agree regarding the mar
keting of the 1907 crop held by the
society. The society offered $4,000
hogsheads, but the buyers would bid
on only 10000. In this the society
finally agreed, but demanded Ii cents
a pound for it. The buyers refused to
give more than IL cents.
The Burley society issued state
ment after the failure of the confer
ence, declaring that after making the
concession in regard to the amount to
be boughts and failing to agree on a
price for the smaller amount proposed
by the company, the growers asked the
buyers If they would consider further
compromise propositions. The buy
ers. according to the statement, de-
clared that further propositions were
useless. The statement concludes:
"The attitude taken by the buyers
demonstrates conclusively tina. the
American Tobacco Company is the
only buyer left for our tobacco, and
that it is determined to fix its own
price,
A further conference between the
buyers and the Burley association has
been called for Frankfort in final ef-
fort to reach a settlement, but 1t is
feared the recent failure Of negotia-
tiohs may increase the friction in the
tobacco districts.

COUNT WHITE IN FAVOR.
Russian Diplomats Dimmed Prestige
Restored by Controversy.

nOS8Sdu OtPsOsu0b 0sHSuVo UsSoss0S
Restored by Controversy.
st. Petersburg, Jan. 4.-The contro-
versy between Count Witte and Cen
eral Kuropatkin over Kuropatkin's tes-
timony at the trial of General Stoessel,
which has been conducted at length
for several days in the Novoe Vrem-
va, has developed into discussion OF
Count Whites role of so-called East
ern adventurer and the extent Of his
responsibility for the war. This the
enemies of Count Witte have persist
emily endeavored to saddle upon him.
General Kuropatkin, in series OF
letters. has sought to prove that Witte
was responsible for the founding Of
Port Dalny, which the general de-
clares gave the Japanese an invaluable
base during the siege of Port Arthur,
and also interfered with the prompt
dispatch of heavy artillery to the fort
ress.
Replying to these letters, Count
Witte explicitly declares he was OPP
posed to the establishment either of a
military or commercial port in Chi
nese territory, and says that the pol
icy of leasing the Kwangtung PENN
Esula and extending the railroad line
thither was adopted over his head. He
ascribes the occupation Of Port Ar
thur by the Russians to the initiative
of Count Muravieff, who then was for
eign minister, and declares he was so
indignant at the move that he immedi-
ately broke off all relations with Mu-
ravieff.
Count Witte challenges General Ku-
ropatkin to prove that he ever called
attention to Port Dalny as strategic
menace to Port Arthur before the war,
and says that Kuropatkin, in 1903,
stated that Port Arthur was able to
resist the whole Japanese army and
defend the Kwangtung peninsula in
Manchuria.
The controversy has greatly restored
Count Whites dimmed prestige and
brought him prominently into the pub
lie eye. Among his partisans is Pre-
mier Stolypin, who, in a recent con-
versation, said he was great admirer
of Whites talents and would be glad
to have him in the cabinet, were it not
for the opposition to him in the high
est quarters.

TO fORIIFY sound
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT TO Ask
FOR LARGE SUM FOR
THAT PURPOSE.
Action Taken on Recommendation OF
Congressman Humphrey, Who Made
Statement As to Unprotected Condi-
ton - Appropriation Of $500, 600
Proposed for-That Purpose.

Washington, Jan. 6.-President
Roosevelt has been seeking all the
Information possible as to the need
LOT Notifications on the Pacific Coast.
He requested Representative Humph-
|rey, of Washington, to submit state
|ment as to the needs of Seattle and
Puget Sound. Mr.. Humphrey. called
on the President Saturday and handed
him a statement which shows that, de-
spite the existence of several artillery
forts in Sound waters and the laying
|of submarine mines at several points,
the cities of the North Pacific Coast
are still comparatively unprotected.
Mr.. Humphrey says that the sen-
trance to the Sound is so wide that
[enemies' vessels might pass through
|unobserved in thick weather, although
the entrance is guarded by three ar
|tillery forts. 1t is recommended that
submarine boats be employed as aux
iliary protection. This need is empha-
sized by the fact that in many places
the water of the channel is so deep
as to make the laying of submarine
mines impracticable.
Deception Pass is entirely without
protection; larger guns are needed at
Forts Worden and Flagler; owing to
inadequate provision for the Coast ar
tillery, some of the present guns at
Puget Sound forts have fallen into dis
|use. The most vital question, Mr..
Humphrey says, is the installation of
protection which will overcome the
width of the entrance from the Pa
Icific Ocean. Without such provision,
he says, the present equipment will in
time of war prove practically useless.
Mr.. Humphrey sums up the needs of
the district in this way:
+ First - Torpedo and submarine
boats; second-More men; third
Fertilization of Deception Pass, Foul
weather Bluff and Double Bluff; fourth
Heavier guns at all forts.
AS a result of the Presidents in
lvestigation the War Department will
call for appropriations aggregating
about $5,4OO,O00 for Notifications and
coast defenses of Puget Sound. It is
proposed that $2,779,9s7 Of this amount
shall be available for immediate use.

Seattle Man Gets Backing.

Tacoma, Jan. A telegram re-

architect now in New York, who is
