SEMINOFF INEXILE
 STILL MAKING PLANS
Believes He Mill Fight for Free
 dom Of Russian People

Tokio, April 1s.-Ataman semin-
 of. leader of Cossacks and heir to Admiral kolchak's illusory title as
 supreme ruler of the Russias, says
 that before he dies he will fight again
 on Russian soil flor the freedom of the Russian people" Just when he
 does not know. At present, he ad-
 mits, the time is not ripe. But he has plans and hopes. lie says, and his preparations so forward.
 seminoff has just left Tokio after a two weeks visit in the Japanese capi-
 tai. He came here from Nagasaki, where he has been living for the last
 year, since he left the United States at the urgent request of the American goyrnment and failed to find satisfac- tory asylum in China.
 His mission in Tokio, Seminoff told the correspondent was entirely priv ate. He was visiting old friends and seeing to some financial interests. He called on no Japanese officials, he said, and the Japanese say the same. There is little reason to doubt either statement, as Seminoff's star is set in Japan, where recognition of the So- viet government now is the li,eliest is- sue in foreign politics.
 Reports which Seminoff says have reached him from White agents in Russia have encouraged him to think that the red houd on Aslatic Russia, at least, is weakening. In the Amur province. with Blagoyeschensk as a center, the Soviet's imposition of grain taxes in kind ha. led the peasants to encourage White partisan bands which have gained minor and tempor- ary successes against the Red garri- sons At several points along the Trsns-Siberian railway, according to ssminoff. discontent is taking on the proportions of considerable risinEs against Red Rule.
 Around Chits, for instance. an interesting situation has srison. A leader of irregulars who formerly supported the bolsheyiks has turned throughout Siberia as the "old Man" was the first to take Chita from the Whites and turn it over 10 the Reds. Now he is tired Of Red rule. His banner has always been a red lag. but now he carries across it in white letters the slogan, Down with Com munism." Siberia is peopled by peas- ants. and the men of the land have not found communism to their liking. Revolts of this nature. according to also have occurred at Ner- chinsk and to the west of Lake Baikal, at Noyonikolaiessk.
 So he believes the rising is com ing and when ii comes he things himself its logical leader. Wearing mantle, Seminoff expects 10 cad the White emigres now scattered throughout the Far East once he has lifted his banner again. These forces, however. have d~indled and dispersed until there is only one body of re- sneetablo size left, about 1000 men 'I under General Glehoff living aboard ? small fleet in the woodsung river if Shanghai, where the Whites say hey are maintaining military disci- nline In all It's war time rigor and Effectiveness.

Faker Finds Prophecy Is
 Better Than BrickIaying

Berlin. April 1S.-Napoleon and Martin Luther are the two spirits with which Johannes Weis Senberg. bet ter known as Prophet John," pre- tends to speak daily in Berlin. Sem berg recently created considerable rumpus by holding seances in school buildings in which children claimed to have heard Napoleon speaking very clearly, and repeated the conversa- tions. Newspapers are denouncing school authorities for permitting pub lie buildings to be used for spiritual istic sessions, but many of them are humorous in their attitude and de- clare the medium is really a prophet. in that he foresay the hard times which were coming and abandoned his work as mason to take up a more remunerative calling.

Tokio, April IS. = Tsuruga, the principal port for communications between Japan and Siberia, wants the Japanese government to recognize the soviet.
 The action of the soviet authorities in stopping the direct mail service between Siberia and Japan and in re- fusing recognition of the Japanese consul in Vladivostok, thereby pfac- tically cutting off travel from Russian territory to Japan. has proved q seri- ous blow to the trade of Tsuruga.

NIT Bed to, Settle Before
Applying Crushed Rock


while q part of the Grangeville-
cottonwood link of the North and
South highway win be built TINS fah'
n will be impossible to complete the
highway. during the present year, ac-
cording to p. e. Oxley, district high
NOV engineer. who was In Grange
s,lle Iii. Monday. Mr.. Oxley's head
quarters, are at Lewiston.
II probably will be six weeks be-
fora call for bids for building this
road will be made, and it is not like
II that actual construction will COM
n,ance before October 1. AS much
grading as possible will be completed
before winter, however, in order that
tbe roadbed may be given ample op-
nortunity to settle during the winter
months Even though the roadbed
is graded, it will not be open to traf-
fc The highway will be surfaced
with crushed rock, next year.
Until necessary papers were pro-
cured from the highway districts
through which the road passes, no
formal application for federal aid,
which is available on the project to
the extent of SO percent, could be
filed, Mr.. Oxley explained Grange
Vile and Fem Highway districts
have provided the papers, and Mr..
Oxley expected to procure them from
Cottonwood this week.
The formal application for funds
goes to the state department OF pub
hc works at Boise, thende to the
federal highway office at Ogden,
thence to the regional highway office
at San Francisco, and finally to the
secretary Of agriculture at Washing
ton. This procedure requires about
a month to complete, and after the
secretary of agriculture has approved
the application of federal aid on the
project. the state makes a formal call
for proposals for construction.
Sites to Harpster Road
The Sites -Harpster project, Of nine
miles of hard-surfaced road, has been
held up, pending decision of federal
authorities on the width of rOadbed
Mr.. Oxley declared. A 10-foOt forest
Standard r0adbed has been recon-
mended, and this recommendation has
just been approved by Washington
Bids will shortly be asked for the
road, which follows the South Fork
of the Clearwater. Mr.. Oxley antici
pates that the contract will bt
awarded within one month.
An unexpected hitch in plans OF
the KOoskia-Kamiah highway ha:
been encountered. 1t was thought
that this highway was entirely fl
nanced, and that work could proceed
without delay. The federal govern
ment provides 100 percent Of cost Of
highway building through India1
lands held in trust, and engineers
were expecting much revenue from
this source. They recently learned
however, that 2200 feet of the pro
posed road pass through lands tina
have been patented to the Indians
At this point, heavy construction il
involved, and the government vii
furnish only 5S percent of the money
instead of 100 percent, over the 220'
feet, as anticipated. Approximate.
$4,000 will be required to be raise'
locally. or from state sources, befor
