JAPANESE CABINET RESIGNS;
RESULT OF BRlBE CHARGES

Toxic, July 30.-The Japanese cabi-
net, headed by Count Okuma as prem
Ter, has rendered it's resignation to
Emperor Yoshihito. This action fol-
lowed the resignation yesterday of Wis
count Kanetake Oura, minister of the
interior, following an investigation
by the ministry of justice into bribery
charges resulting from the parliament
tary elections last March.
Viscount Oura's resignation was
sanctioned by the emperor after re-
port on the situation had been made
to him by Count Okuma.
Premier Okuma, believing he should
hold himself responsible for the acts
of the members of his cabinet, was the
first to tender his resignation. The
other ministers Immediately decided to
follow the example of their chief.
After receiving Count Okuma the
emperor summoned the elder states
men for conference. A cabinet
change at this time is unpopular with
the public because of the war. u-r
Two cases have been mentioned as
responsible for the crisis The first
was the charge that $4,000 had been
offered Viscount Oura by candidate
for the house as the price for keeping
rival candidate out of the field.

TIMBER GREAT
AID TO CROPS

Bottineau, N. D., July 30.-The own
ers Of the. fertile table lands in the
Turtle mountains may kill the goose
that laid the golden egg. Ambitious
because Of the magnificent crops
raised in that region the owners are
clearing the land rapidly and may
lose the advantages they now enjoy
and be restored to the same condition
of the prairie farmers to the south,
with the possible exception of better
SOIL rH.". r-
Ten years ago the table lands in the
mountains were not regarded highly
for agricultural purposes. The resi-
dents sold wood and raised scrub cat.
tie in the underbrush and on the
meadows around the numerous lakes.
The cultivated fields were small in ex-
tent and a 40-acre tract of wheat was
regarded as huge. Today one farmer
has 900 acres in wheat in the noun
tains realized there had never been
a crop failure in that region and they
began to go more heavily into wheat.
The area devoted to the crop gradually
increased. The timbered sections, the
lakes and the soil united in the crea-
ton of conditions which made it i'm
mune from hot winds, hail and black
rust.
The farmers moro recently learned
that the lands which are covered with
the second growth timber could be
easily cleared by cutting down the
trees and leaving the brush on the
land for two years. AS the bulk of the
timber is soft wood the stumps would
rot in that period and the land could
be celared and plowed with little ef-
fort. In the intervening period it,
made fine pasturage. That method is
now in general vogue. 1t is such an
easy proposition and the lands are
making such great grain yields that
the owners of the land are rapidly
clearing their acreage, which has re-
suited in warning being sent out by
the state school of forestry urging the
owners to conserve their timber and |
other advantages and not lose the
wonderful resources that they now pos |
sess.
The soil is perhaps among the very !
best in the state for grain crops.

railway about midway between those
two cities and southeast of these as
far as the Bug river the Russian front
has been broken.
General Won Mackenson, after hay
ing been virtually stopped by the Rus
sian counter attack, now denies at
least one line of retreat to the Rus
SLAMS and places the Germans in po-
sition to move against the Bug river
front should this be decided upon
The news contained in Berlin official
dispatch that the Germans had
crossed the Vistula river southeast of
Warsaw and that the Russians al
ready have fallen back, leaving fort
ress of Ivanogorod the only one left
in this section.
According to dispatches received
here, the country around Warsaw
which the Russians are leaving to the
invaders, has been put to the torch,
while the city itself will be denuded
of everything if it falls into their
hands. There has been sharp fighting
in the west the past "a hours.

were killed. just under 120. 600 sur-
rendered when the fortress capitu-
lated.
Ihe Russians also captured 24OO

.oI the most modern type. The in
terror torts are said to be intact, with
good deal of ammunition in them

bers OF the men. they say. were drop
ping from exhaustion, while others
had not sufficient strength to leave the
trenches. They ate moss and gnawed
