ITALY'S POSITION.

Whether Italy gets into the war or not, it is evident that every induce ment possible is being made upon the part of Germany through Prince yon Buelow to keep 1t out of the conflict knowing full well as it does that if Italy goes in it will be with the al lies and the addition of such an army and navy as it commands is going to give a tremendous advantage to the enemy.
 As a peace token Germany has se- cured the consent of Austria to give up portion of it's territory adjoining Italy, which was formerly Italian property and is at present populated chiefly by Italian people, if Italy will agree to tie it's own hands and re- frain from entering the struggle. It would be a cheap method of keeping down the foe for Germany and Aus tria, even though Austria made the en- tire sacrifice, but such is not likely to appease Italy. It is perfectly appar- ent to that country as to others in that section that the allies have commenced an important campaign against a vital point in the forcing of the Dardanelles. There are consequences which are like ly to operate to the advantage of each otAS III tAA1I eeSIAoIi II they are concern - ed on the right side and alive to their opportunities. Italy therefore can hardly be expected to accept the prof fered territory. when as a matter of fact it really seeks more and sees the chance to get 1t. Italy has the future as well as the present to look out for in it's coming move and it is not like 1y to be bought off for a song. The situation is such that Italy can hardly afford to eliminate itself when op- portunity for getting what it wants was never better.

Adopted Turkish Girl.

Our regiment has adopted a two year-old Turkish girl baby,'' writes a Cossack who is serving with the Russian advance into the Turkish Caucasus. He explains:
 During our forward movement last week one of our men found in a farm house this baby, which had been abandoned by her fleeing parents. Tho starving little creature was clean ed, clothed and fed, and then taken to the staff quarters. In the Greek church of the village of Bardus the founding was christened according to the rites of the Orthodox church, the commander of the regiment act ing as godfather, and Princess Gal oVanna, a Red Cross nurse and wife of a member of the Duma, as godmother. The child was named Alexandra Don skaia, after the name of the regiment. The officers and men of the regiment subscribed monthly amounts suff1ci- ent to pay for rearing and educating their regimental daughter"

Stories of the War
Circumference of Fortress 75 Miles.

Some idea of the magnitude of the undertaking involved in the Russian investment of Przemysl may be form ed from the statement that the cir conference of the fortress amounts to
 70 miles. The portion of the Russian army which is necessary for the mere operation of sitting tight in this spot is therefore large enough so that if released it would have a very ma terial influence on field operations. It is estimated that at least two full Russian army corps, together with a large force of cavalry and heavy ar
 tillery, are immobilized by the invest ment of Przemysl.
 The arrangements for the invest ment of the fortress are similar to those employed for the defense of a river line. The extent of the front is too great to admit of a continuous lire being occupied in adequate strength to resist attack at every point by means of troops actually on the spot. The object of investment is
 to prevent supplies and reinforcements reaShing the garrison, and to confine the latter within the outer girdle of forts. This object is attained by sur
 rounding the fortress with a line of
 outposts, which remain constantly on the alert to detect by means of recon naisance, any offensive movement or the part of the garrison.
 The actual resistance to any offen- Slve movements from within the fort ress is offered by reserve bodies o1 | troops, which are held in readiness al convenient points in the rear of the | line of investment. By this means the number of troops absorbed in the | investment of the fortress is much re, l duced.
 When contrasted with the speedy 1 fall of the Actresses in Belgium the | prolonged defense of Przemysl may seem extraordinary. Liege, Namur Maubeuge and Antwerp were subduet | by investment. The Germans brough up artillery of exceptional power, b3 | which they put the artillery of the de | lenders out of action and destroy e(
 the defenses. The Russians have nt guns capable of being transported il

A HAPPY SURPRISE

DR.. Green had happy surprise for
the first patients who visited his office
after his return from his summers alb
sence. While away, the doctor met an
eastern dentist who gave him formula
for a new discovery in dentistry that
enables him to fill tooth absolutely
without pain or discomfort to the
patient He says that he has been
using it during the summer and has
yet to find the first TOOTH to which he
has applied the process, in which it
has not proven itself to be a thorough
success. Those for whom he has
worked since his return to Grangeville
are more than enthusiastic in praise of
this new method. 1t is entirely devoid
of amy danger to the patient, or of any
bad etfects and is the greatest advance
made in the profession of dentistry in
the last hundred years. You just
simply have a tooth filled and do not
realize it, and that is all there is to be
said about it. 24-1

HAVE MUNICIPAL AMAs. TREE.
City Council Takes Charge Of Arrange
ments of the Same.

Grangeville will have a municipal
Christmas tree, this conclusion being
arrived at at the meeting of the city
council held this week. The idea being
to provide presents for the children of
those who are not possessed of an
over abundance of the world s goods.
Several years ago, through the
generosity of John P. vollmer of Lew
iston, who is president of the First
National Bank of this city, who always
takes more than a passing interest in
this community, forty dollars was set
aside for the providing of gifts for the
children OIL parents of meager means of
this community and this year young
men of the community who are in
sympathy with the movement have or
ganized Good Fellowship club which
will cooperate with the movement
The Commercial club as we'll as the
Civic club has also taken the matter
up and because of this general interest
the city council has decided to make
the matter municipal affair." The
tree and celebration will be held in the
local opera house and suitable pro-
gram prepared in connection Herewith.
The object is worry one and if prop
erly directed will no doubt result in
ample appreciation as well as general
commentator.

AFFIRMED ON APPEAL.
Verdict of $500 For Insurance Policy
of Floyd Price Affirmed.

Boise, Idaho, October 30, 1915
ion handed down last night by the SUI
preme court in the case of Anna Price
versus the North American Accident
Insurance company, in which the plain
tiff sought to secure payment of 500
for the accidental death of her son.
The case originated in Idaho county,
where Judgment was given in the dis
trict court for Mrs. Price. BY the
terms of the contract the premium was
to be paid on or before June /, 1913,
and was paid to the Lewiston agent.
The son was drowned June 6, 1913 and
the insurance company refused to pay
the amount the policy called for on the
grounds the premium was not paid on
the day it became due. In this case
the supreme court held that here a con
tract of insurance provides that the
acceptance of renewal premium shall
be optional with the company and if a
past due premium shall be accepted by
the company, by branch office of the
company or by any duly authorized
agent of the company, such acceptance
shall reinstate the policy in full as to
disability resulting from accidental
bodily injuries thereafter sustained
whether the company had knowledge
of the payment or not.
This case was argued on appeal be-
fore the supreme court at Lewiston
some few week ago and A. S. Hardy
appeared for the appellant and B.
Augur and M. r. Hattabaugh for the
respondent Mrs. Price. The litigation
followed the drowning of Forest Price
in Salmon river year ago last spring
and was a suit to recover on his acct
dent insurance policy.
