A GERMAN CONSUL
CONDEMNS PAPERS

NEW YORK, May; 3.-Dr Bern
hard Dernburg has issued the follow
ing statement respecting Reuter-
dispatch from Amsterdam giving ex-
tracts from Count Reventlow's article
in the Deutsche Tages Zeitung and in
Die Post.
Although it is known to the Amer
lean press, 1t may not be known to
the general public that the two papers
cited represent a somewhat extreme
conservative faction of no very large
following. Whoever wants to find out
about the German opinion at large
must consult such papers as the
Fraukfurter Zeitung. Koinische Zeiung
Berliner Tageblatt, LOkal Anzeiger
and the Vossische Zeitung. Unhappily
the cutting off Of the cables prevents
the American public from getting any
other news than that issued up by
the British censors."

WTAsHINGToN, May S,-The Brit
w ish embassy issued a statement
tonight for the information Of Ameri-
can shipping interests designed to fl-
cilitate trade of the United States
with neutral countries, by pointing out
a way to guard against interference by
allied ships with cargues not under the
ban Of Great Britain's blockade order
in council.
The statement has been sent to all
British cOnsuls in the United states,
to whom shippers are advised to give
notice Of the character of CargOes SO
that the British government may be
advised before ships reach European
waters
The United States does not recog-
nize the right Of the allies to inter
fere with legitimate commerce be-
tween neutrals or with nOn-COntra-
band goods, even when ultimately des-
tined to Germany or Austria, and has
set forth its position in lengthy dtplo-
matte exchanges on the subject.
In order, however, 70 prevent as far
as possible unnecessary delays and de-
tcntions, the foreign trade advisers of
the state department have been hold
ing informal conferences with British
embassy officials In the interest or
shippers and to aid those who desire
to conform to the requirements of the
order in council they have printed the

When before leaving the city he stat
ed that he desired to make a trim
through via Salmon river, it was gen
orally supposed that he was actuated
by a desire to see what is recande.,
as one of the few beautiful wilds In the
northwest
The Boise Capital News in telling OF
Mr.. Leavitt's visit to the city, said that
he had gone over the Salmon river
country with a view Of furnishing pow
er for transportation purposes through
the medium Of gasoline motor which
can operate on a grade as high as J
per cent. He believes the road can be
built from New Meadows to the pres
ent southern terminal of the Lewiston
& Nez Perce railroad, in which his
people have become Interested, for not
to exceed $1,000. 900 and it is his opinion
that the Lewiston & Nez Perce offers
the best route into Idaho seaport CITY
Lewiston. In fact he believes II would
be an ideal connection
Before leaving for the east, saws the
Capital News, Mr.. Leavitt promised to
make further investigation and in
quiry and to submit a proposal where
by the capitalists he represents will
undertake to back the construction of
the railroad He also promised to take
matters in connection with the road up
with members of the north and south
railroad commission appointed by the
governor. He said he would aid them
In working out feasible plan by which
the roads construction can be assured.
Genuine surprise was expressed by
Mr.. Leavitt that the state of Idaho
should so long have permitted a con-
dition to exist whereby so extensive an6
I rich country as north Idaho should
be so far segregated from the rest OF
the state with the consequent result
of sectional dissatisfaction and strife
especially in view of the extremely rich
section of country which divides the
two sections of the state
He also expressed astonishment thai
the people of Idaho had not long age
demanded that this north and soutf
railroad should be built to connect
those two sections, but that a spul
/ should be built to the tremendously ricl
sections around Warren, which he de
clared his investigation led him to be-
heve is a far richer mineral countr,
than the Coeur d. dAlenes. He thinks itl
development is being retarded only b!
lack of proper transportation facilitie,
which can be provided at REASONABLE,
cost to the people of the state.
The people of the Lewiston countr!
have always been deeply interested ii

has been hoped that through the in
fluence and means of the capitalist
represented by Mr.. Leavitt the roaC
would be built ON, not only TO Asotii
and Waha during the coming year bu
to junction with the road at no, ant
that in addition another road woult
be built from somewhere on Craig moul
tain through the rich farming countr!
from there to Grangeville, further open

shall become interested in the extension
of the road from New Meadows here
that these other extensions will al

have been secured by lengthening ou
the road several miles. was stated at
the time the originaL survey was made
but that would have required heavy
additional outlay, and the present grade
Is a reasonably good one. The compile
tion Of this road means a great stride
forward In the development OF vast

period repay many fold the outlay made
by the government and local citizens.
We wish we were in a position to state
just when the construction work ON the

be done at this time. However 1t Is
reasonable to expect activities to be re-
sumed the forepart Of next year.

SELLING LESS RAPID
Quality Never Better; Predicts
Less Acreage; Rain Would
Help Flowing. y

]. T. Smith. chief clerk In the o.-W.
II. & N, offices at Lewiston, who made
trip through this section of tho coun
try last week, by train. auto ana rigs.
made the following comment to the
Tribune ON his trip. including the pres
ent and future status of the grain crop
on the prairie:
Mr. Smith was enabled to gather
much information relative TO general
conditions and crop movements. He said
the farmers are selling at all points In
about sufficient quantities to keep the
railroads busy but up to the present
time a car shortage has not been exper-
fenced I'm the upper country.
''The roads are In perfect condition
and practically the entire crop OF the
upper country Is now in the ware
houses" said Mr.. Smith. ''At many
points large quantities OF wheat and
barley are piled outside the ware
houses because Of the unusual delivery
Selling has been very light for the past
several days because OF the declining
markets. but there Is sufficient grain
sold to keep the railroads busy for some
time and II Is expected another selling
boom will ne experienced before a
! slump In the movement Develops
The general view Is that the acre.
age devoted to crops will be about 25
per cent less next season than last sea-
SON and this Is because the farmers
seeded every available acre last season
when they thought prices for all grain
would be high and much OF the land
used should have been summer fallow-
ed. The coming season this land will
be summer fallowed and this will mean
a material decrease in the crop acreage
"The quality OF the crops last season
has never been better and the farmers
were favored with perfect weather 10
the harvest and the roads have been In
fine condition for the delivery of the
crops. Now they are anxious for rain
for the fall plowing and seeding. The
fall wheat sown on summer fallowed lant
is coming UP in fine shape but 1t Is too
dry for fall plowing except where disc
plows are used and rain will be neces-
sary before the land is seeded.
'The closing of the Panama canal Is
expected to cause much OF the central
Idaho crop to be shipped by rail to the
Atlantic seaboard. The cost in handling
grain by rail to Atlantic points is hut
little higher than the cost through Pa
cific ports under the present charter
charges and with the closing of the
canal. 1t is not improbable that the rail
shipments east will be equally as low
as the shipments through coast points.

the representations from that place late
y that Lieutenant Garber paid a WIS.,
VI there while on his recent tour OF
inspection to the northern companies.
He found things even better than had
been represented to the office. The
whole town Is behind the movement and
nearly enough men have signified their
intention to become members.
"The building which Is offered as an

use the lieutenant says. 1t was aban-
doned as schoolhouse year OF so
ago when the new structure was COM
pleted and last year a community club
was organized to make it's headQuar-
ters in the old school building. The
funds at the disposal of the club we're

and pool tables were installed, a gym
nasium fitted up, locker rooms and

Fitted out. There is a large assembly
Aoom which may be used for drills and

In addition to the armory possibili-
