Turner's Add Another Ranch.

The real estate firm of Sharkey &
Fike of this city on last Friday sold
Mrs. Amanda Bolin's ranch, 4 miles
south of Nezperce, to Fred Turner
for $12,250
This quarter joins the already ex-
tensive ranch holdings of the Turner
Brothers-the prairie's biggest farm
ers--and makes 100 good old Nez-
perez prairie acres to which they
have title. They have farmed this
section sufficiently to know its real
value as compared with other local
tiles they have tried, and they con-
slider investments in this dirt the
best to be made.

Verify Cause Of Death.

The body of the late DR.. E. S
Booth was exhumed late yesterday
afternoon and a post norton exami-
nation was conducted at the cemetery
to determine the exact cause of death,
said the Lewiston Tribune of Friday.
This examination was made at the re-
quest of the insurance company that
recently wrote an accident policy in
the sum of $4,000 upon Dr.. Booths
life. The company was represented
by DR.. E. L. White while DR.. Elmer
G. Braddock represented Mrs. Booth.
DR.. C. T. Johnson Witnessed the ex
animation.
The physicians were agreed that
the death resulted from the injuries
received by DR.. Booth while travel
ing on an O.-W. R. & N. train near
Starbuck.

1t is said that this year 80 auto
mobiles have been bought here in
Nezperce and the automobile COM
ing into more general use, has
stimulated the Improvement of the
roads. But it is regrettable that
many autoists, who derive the most
pleasure, if not the most benefit from
these improved roads, show a self
ishness in the use of them, and
disregard for the rights and comforts
and safety of others, that should be
corrected in the interest of every
one. Strange to say, it is some
times even the farmer-autoist, that
shows himself thoughtless speeder,
not giving fair part of the road to
the humble teamster or horseman,
that happens to be on his way, not
footing the horn as warning, when
he rushes by him from behind, or
when he drives his automobile around
dangerous curves, where it cannot
be seen from a distance. A right
spirited man will always show the
greatest regard for the rights and
comforts and safety of others, even
when he drives an automobile.

nothing and she cannot afford to
pursue an empty victory, even if it
could be won. When approache d
through proper channels she will be
ready to listen to any reasonable
terms, especially when several of
the now neutral nations are arrayed
against her."
These guesses are as good as any
body else's. They are offered for
what they are worth. Coming as
they do, from two wholly dissimilar
sources, it is curious to note that
both propose 10 make the weak pay
the bills for the stronger. In the
former Belgium, France and Russia
and Serbia must bear the burden of
the peace settlement. In the latter
Austria and Turkey are chosen for
the role.
OCTOBER LIST is only SIX weeks
away. Events will have to move
rapidly to bring peace to Europe by
that time. Yet the war started in
less time. Who, seven days before
the declaration of war by Austria
against Russia, would have predicted
a world war; The war may end as
suddenly as it began, even though
all the nations involved protest that
it must continue until they have been
victorious. All are fac
ing ultimate bankruptcy and none
nave any possibility of gaining as
much as they have already lost.

AMERICAN PASSPORTS.

The arrest of seven men at New York for holding or dealing in fraud ulent American passports is one Of the direct results of the execution of a German spy in England who had papers which indicated he was a sub- ject Of this country. It called for closer attention to the manner in which American passports were hand ed out and a recognition of this caused the immediate action of this government to such an end.
 The securing of American passports have been only matter of form. It was all that was required under con- ditions prevailing before the war. but it is in1posSible to tolerate any sys- tenn which can be turned to the use Of loelligerent nations or their subjects at the expense Of this country. There Is involved too much responsibility and too many serious complications to permit any laxity at this time relative to American citizenship That is some thing which this country demands re- spect for. and in so doing it must shoulder the responsibility of elira- mating every possibility of fraud. Otherwise there is no end to the trou- ble 1t may experience.
 Those who seek to violate the re- quirements made much more strict since the Lody case. should be dealt with to the extent of the law. A few lessons in demonstration of the fact that the government is not to be trified with should have it's good eff feet. Otherwise genuine passport holders are going to experience trou- bic.
