Russian Army At Bay.

LONDON. Feb. 23.-The Tenth Rus. sian army which retreated from East Prussia into Russian Poland is mak- ling a desperate stand against the Germans along the Mare and Niemen rivers 'northeast of Warsaw. Dur ing the engagements on Saturday the Russian forces were able to check Gen iHndenburg's troops at Lohmza and forced them to retreat at Oseo- vice but the Germans have sent strong endorsements to that dis trict and now have the Russians on the defensive.
 Believe Move To Capture Warsaw.
 The German aggressive movement from Russian Poland is believed by military experts to be a move to eff. feet the capture of Warsaw from the north, and would also isolate the Russian armies along the Vistula river and before Warsaw.
 Russians Recognize Danger.
 Grand Duke Nicholas, of the Rus. sian army, is evidently aware of the dangerous positions of his Polish arm- les as fresh troops are being rushed to the district. It is asserted by the military experts that the battle which is now rapidly converging near Os- owiec will be one of he most des- perate of the war and may decide the fates of the armies engaged. The Germans have been pouring troops into the district over the railroad from For+ Lyck to Grajewo, while the Russians have been bringing troops from interior Russia and be- fore Warsaw.

Poland Lacks Railroads.

PETROGRAD. Feb. 3-The Russian war office asserts that the retire. ment of the Russian armies from East Prussia was owing to the Germans having railroad facilities for the rap. i'd assembling of troops in numbers at certain points where they would be able to break through the Russian lines before endorsements could reach them. It Is asserted that Grand Duke Nicholas instructed his gener- als to withdraw from East Prussia into Russian Poland where the Ger
 's would be without means of transportation. The belief is express. ed that the German advance is checked and that the Russians will win the battle which is now being waged in the Osewiec district.

PRICES ON BALED ALFALFA
CONTINGENT on WEATHER
Local Firm Is Shipping an Average
of Thirty Tons Per Day to
Outside Markets

There has been a considerable
movement in baled hay in this val
ley for the past couple of weeks.
The l. H. Kent Company are ship
ping an average of two carloads a
day to points both east aud west
from Hazen, the bulk of the ship
ments, however, are to the west, go
ing to the mountain towns this side
of Sacramento. Shipments east are
going as far as Wells, Nevada.
Future prices will be largely gov
erned by lack or prey=.ence of rain
in the foothill country on the Coast,
as early rains will start the grass to
growing and thus providing early
pasturage which is just now deficient
and necessitates feeding in the dairy
section. The alfalfa crop was large
ly failure in California this season
and as a result what is now going on
the market is coming out of the
warehouses upon which seasons stor
age has had to be paid, necessitating
higher prices and giving the market
a firm tone that has been absent
for several weeks. Prices In the To-
cal market have been ranging form
$500 to $500 per ton +. @. B. Fal-
ion. The San Francisco markets
quote $1,000 to S14.00 to which
must be added to the consumers the

handling expense according to con
ditions.

maintained for the next thirty days,
it will result in materially depicting

of the late Charles j. Kelsey In
this community where he was known
SO well and which will long be the
beneficiary of his activities for the
advancement and betterment of bus

our friend gave to this valley in Me-

MISS Martin TO AID
SUFFRAGE CAUSE IN EAST
Will Lecture in Pennsylvania, New
Jersey and Massachusetts, During
Fall Campaign.

The Philadelphia Press of October
9TH contains the following interest
ing interview with Miss Anne Mar
tin. president of the Nevada Womens
Civic League.
How the women OF Nevada turn
ed the machinery of suffrage pro-
paganda into an instrument for edu-
eating the women into their newly
acquired civic duties Immediately af-
er the franchise was granted to
themlast November was told yester-
day by Miss Anne Martin, of Reno,
president of the Nevada Women's
Civic League.
Miss Martin is here TO aid in the
yotes-for-women campaign in New
Jersey, and. incidentally, to dispose
the statement that the women of the
West are not Interested in universal
suffrage in the United States and do
not care whether their Eastern sis
ters get the ballot
Miss Martin as president of the
Nevada Equal Franchise Society led
the fight for the franchise there last
year and when the organization met
to celebrate its victory it was de-
,ided not to disband but to use the
organization to educate the women
to knowledge and realization of
The new responsibility"
"The Civic League" saaid Miss
Martin, yesterday at the haedquar-
ters of the Equal Franchise Society,
meets a general demand of the new
ly enfranchised women for informa-
ion about the wise use of the ballot.
Regardless of their previous attiaude
.oward woman suffrage Neada wo-
men are entering upon their civic
duties seriously, have registered in
arge numbers for the municipal cleo
-ionh and are preparing themselves
to erercise their political rights not
only for the benefit of the commun-
ty and the state, but to aid the
sauce of woman everywhere. The
sivie League was founded therefore,
in rsponse to widespread demand
,or information, advice, lectures and
literature on the part of Nevada's
woman voters
The women of Nevada have not
Soted in a statewide election. In
In local eiectsons Mis- Martin said
more women have registered and
voted porportionly than men. Dis
sussing the fairness and Judgment
Of the women voters, Miss Martin
aid they had defeated drastic and
seere saloon law which was palpably
unjust in its proposed method of en-
oreement, and from this the story
has gone forth from Reno that the
women had voted in favor of the
saloon. She said the wmen had only
been fair.
Miss Martin came here under the
auspices of an organization of west
ern women formed to help the cam
oaign in the East. She will speak in
Philadelphia under the auspices of
the Equal Franchise Society, and will
have charge of the Camden district
| in New Jersey. After the New Jer-
sey election Miss Martin will go to
Massachusetts and help in the cam
paigns there.
