Special to the World.

Special to the World.
LONDON, Jan. 2.-Accordilg to
his excellency, Basil Timiriazeff.
privy councillor of the Russian en-
pire and former minister of CON-
merce, now is the time for American
manufacturers to get their goods
into the cars domain.
M. Timiriazeff who is at present
in London, said:
There is a great field in Russia
for American agricultural machi1-
cry. Few people realize the vast ex-
tent of Siberia, OR that it is great,
rolling agricultural country some
thing like the western states of
America. There is an enormous mi
grption of Russians from the east
ern provinces into Siberia now going
on, and the agricultural possibilities
of the country are being opened.
Consequently there is a great de-
mand for agricultural implements OF
all Sorts
NJ. Timiriazeff said. too, that there
was a big demand for patented arti-
cles such as safety razors and foun-
tain pens.
America turns them out by the
millions" said he. "By all means the
manufacturers should send their
agents to Russia NJ Timiriazeff
continued:
THE German manufacturers have
for many years had almost a mon
opoly of the Russian trade, but there
is now a very expensive boycott be-
ing carried on against them, mainly
on political grounds. Russian trade
is held to a large extent by the Poles
who are incensed at the recent anti
Polish legislation of the Prussian
government. The Pan-Slavish move
ment, too, which is gaining great
force, and is mainly anti-Teuton in
character. is largely responsible for
the boycott.
American manufacturers In
search of new markets might do
worse than turn their attention more
to Russia. But sending travellers to
the country who do not know the
language or sending catalogues
printed only In English. would be
quite useless. The man who has
goods to sell must be able to present
his wares in the Russian language.

CRIME CARNIVAL :
RAILROAD CAMP
SIDING HOME OF
THUGS AND TOUGHS, SAYS DEP
UTY.-LIQUOR BARRED BUT
SOLD OPENLY.

Reports from Columbia Siding, or
as the place is known to the post
Office, Behula, indicate that the sher-
ifs office and the United States rev.
enue service fire undertaking to clean
up that piece. Columbia Siding has
always been an outpost, but since the
Great Northern spur line up Moses
coulee was begun, the place has de-
veloped into a typical construction
camp, with all the high lights that
accompany such places.
When the line was first projected
the Roths and others from Spokane
applied for a license to operate a
saloon. A remonstrance was pre-
sented to the county commissioners
and the license was denied. The
place is on the Columbia river, and is
the main construction and supply
camp.
John and William Roth were TAX
en- to Waterville recently and fined
for selling liquor without a license
But the camp has been wide open
recently. AS a deputy sheriff this
morning expressed it, They went
five miles up the coulee to meet labor
ers coming in and rolled them" A
raid was made last week by Deputy
Shnr;Af nd
resteH This was on a charge of a
hoiLp. A man named Clark and
.one&named Brownwell were taken ii
Waterville, but evidence to convict
was lacking. The Swede they are said
to have robbed was so drunk he
could not identify them. The sher-
ifs, Office said one man they wanted
badly got away.
The sheriff's Office also said this
morning that the revenue officers are
after the Roths, and that they will
be taken to Spokane
The Swede who was slugged and
robbed recently was struck so hard
that the. thugs thought he was dead
and they worked several hours to re-
vive him. A few weeks ago a deputy
sheriff was standing on the station
platform with two prisoners when
he heard cries if a victim who was
being slugged and robbed in the
dark He left his prisoners in Gus
tody of a citizen and ran to the place
where the cries came from, but the
thugs had gone, and the victim was
bleeding and moaning on the ground

TWO STATES
WANT ADMISSION
ARIZONA AND NEW MEXICO
LOOK TO CONGRESS FOR FA-
VORABLE ACTION THIS SES-
SION.
Special to the World.


WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. q
New Mexico and Arizona are pro-
crossing for brilliant dash for
statehood after the closing of the
holiday recess This time they will
cooperate, but the effort will be for
two states instead of one. Both ter
ritories are hopeful of success.
New Mexico has tried for almost
sixty years to get into the Union
and Arizona for almost half of that
time. At the beginning of every ses-
sion of congress their labors are re-
newed. So far they have been
doomed to disappointment, largely
owing to the feeling among conserv-
ative eastern senator's and represen-
tatives that the territories are not
prepared for statehood. This objec-
ton, the friends of the pending bill
contend, has gradually grown small
er and smaller.
president Roosevelt has indicated
to. Governor Curry of New Mexico
and to representatives of Arizona
that he will use his best efforts to
fufther both bills during the short
session, and both territories have
large and influential Hobbies at work
for them Western senators and rep
resentatives generally favor the bills
and will urge that they be taken up
in both the senate and the house as
soon IS possible
Unluestionably, however, many of
the older senators and members are
still unconvinced Of the desirability
of creating two new states and the
fact that only sixty days of the ses-
sion remain is strongly against
them.
If the measures are to succeed it
will be necessary for them to have
support of both house Of congress.

Gently goes into effect
But it should be borne in mind by

sent by way of England and France
and the old postal union rate of five

Further, it should be noted by

Il6E-TRACK
FRANCHISE
MESSRS. A. u. WELLS, f. w.
SMITH AND JOHN A. GELLATLY
THE FRANCHISE

There seems to be general senti-
ment in the cI,y oday against the
proposal of F. M. Scheble as express
ed in the World of yesterday for the
diversion of the proposed sidetrack
from Columbia street to the alley
between Wenatchee avenue and Col
umbia streets. This proposition evil
IDENTIFY would be fought just as bit
terly as is the plan to put the side
track on Columbia street. The claim
is that the lots east of the alley are
very small as 1t is and that cutting
off fifteen or twenty feet to widen
the alley would make the lots too
short for warehouse purposes.
A. 2. Wells, of Wells & Morris,
which firm is one of the property
owners on the west side of Columbia
street, said that his company was in
favor of the sidetrack on Columbia
street but would fight the laying of
the track ia the alley Said he: 81
consider that Columbia street is fit
for nothing but warehouse and job
bling street. This Is needed in the
center of the city, not way down to
one side. l cannot see that the lay
ing of the track down this street,
with certain precautions, would in
jure anyone's business. l would
want the track to be put in close to
the property line so as to keep the
street as clear as possible We are
not insisting on this sidetrack, but
believe that for the good of the city
that it should be put in as suggested.
One thing that / think that the coun
Gil should insist on is that this side
track should be a common user and
that any railroad or electric line
should not be barred from using the
track"
F. w. Smith, of the Columbia
River Lumber Company: I'VE have
sidetrack privileges but we need a
great deal more than we have. I
am not speaking from the standpoint
of a lumber man because we lumber
men do but a small percent OF the
