For months Russia has evidently been secretly prepiiN iug for war. Tremendous wheat and other produce .ship ments have been received at. Siberian and Russian ports. Armament and war supplies in inexhaustible quantity await use. The immense army was half mobilized before the world heard a whisper of it. and it is evidently the intention to strike wliile the enemy is still tmjiropared. Russia is a despotism, pure and simple. It represents the eause of barbarism. Its interference in behalf of Kervia or any of the Halkan nations isimrelv selfish, for i I A XI A 1 i ia uwii .ii.uitii'.rim'iu. ii ni'viT luui'iies a nation nui j1 With Mcilfor Stop-Over DA'S CALL 10 ARMS PUT END 10 NEGOTIATIONS ii) destroy the liberty of its citizens. .Brutal might: sup plants right in all its dealings with "brother' nations. The spoliation of Poland, the more recent degradation of Finland, shows plainly the fate in store for the 'Balkans, once they are seized by Russia. J? or many decades .Russia has sought to create discord among the conglomeration of races in the dual empire. The effects of Russian diplomacy are seen hi every .out break in the Balkans. The czar's influence in SeVvia forced the abdication of King Milan in favor of bis thirteen-year-old son, Alexander, in 1SS9, because Milan' was friendly to Austria. Russia forced the marriage of King Alexander to Draga Mashin, a commoner, in IJKK), thus creating enmity among the Servians against their king, who would not follow Russian dictation. In 1003. while i FOREST FIRES IN P SECTIONS I : . ini in i M C P UT nniim ii i AFFECTED TREES ORDERS ARSON I.OXOO.V, Aug. 1. The Westmin ster Gnsotte today publishes tho text of an Interesting telegram from tho Herman Imperial chancellor to tho German ambassador at Vlcnm, sent after tho receipt of a message from St, Petersburg, saying Austria-Hungary hail declined Kussla'a request to enter Into direct negotiation. The message date July SO, saja: 'Tho report of Count Von Pour talcs, thu German ambassador at St. Petersburg does not harmonize with the account your excellency has glrea of tho attitude ot the Austro-llun-garian government. Apparently thcra Is a misunderstanding, which I beg you to clear up. Itcftttal Grave MItako "We cannot expect Austria-Hungary to negotiate with Servia, witn whom she Is In a stato of war. Tho refusal, however, to exchange views with St. Petersburg would be a grave mistake. "We are Indeed ready to fulfill our duty aB ally. We niuBt," however, re fuse to be drawn Into a world-conflagration owlug to Austria-Hungary net respecting our advice. Your excel lency will express this to Count Vpn Ilerchtold, Austro-TIungarlan foreign minister, with all emphasis and great seriousness. . (signed) "VON" DCTHMANX-IIOLLWEG. In reply to thin communication, Count Von Ilerchtold told the Ger man ambassador that thcro was in fact a misunderstanding and that tho Austro-llungarinn ambassador at St. Petersburg had heon instructed al ready to begin negotiations with Serglus SazoBoff, tho Itusslan for eign minister. Mobilization Knds It A statement given by tho German foreign office to the correspondent cencludes: "These negotiations, as well as tbe Intermediate, action of tho German government, wero ended by tho mobi lization of all arms in Russia on sea and laud." Tho declaration ot the foreign of fice was admittedly given, accord ing to tlio correspondent, "in hopo of yet nruvcntlng a world-war and as nu alternative of justifying Ger many's position to ICngland, whoso friendship she still desires." the czar's minister looked on, King Alexander and Qui'en Draga were assassinated and their bodies nlutilhted, and Peter, a Russian puppet, placed upon the throne. Only the threat, of Austria pVcvcnted further assassinations. Since then Russia has omitted no chalice to stir! up trouble for Austria. The Pan-Servian propaganda that culminated in the assassination of Grand Duke Fran. Fer dinand, and his consort, under approval 'of the Servian regicide, was the result of .Russia's' perfidious diplomacy. In the past year Russian banks lujve been established hi all the Balkan rities. The Prohovo line Of the Servia-Rou-mauian railroad has been opened recentlv a feeder for !. Ml T3..11! M 1 11. 1 l-. ' , --. . inu jLiuns-jauit; ruiiruim tiuongii tiussia and ecrvia to the Adriatic, which will connect all Russian and Rouman ian lines and give Russia all the advantages for strat egical purposes. Austrians claim and not without reason that to have awaited the completion of the railroad would have been to invite disaster, that the time to strike was before Russia had all the advantage and had finished it$ program of Balkan occupation, and that the ve.ry existence of the dual monarchy and even the preservation of the German em pire itself is at stake. Russia never has, and does not now, represent tlie cause of civilization or of human progress. Russian suc cess would mean the triumph of medieval despotism mid the ruthless exploitation of the conqueror. Russian tyranny may bo what; is needed for the semi-eivilized hordes of nomads and tribesmen owing allegiance to the "little father," but it cannot be called beneficial to the more civilized nations she is threatening with war.

Former In btrucllnns to you during tho winter, and early spring Imposeil on you the duly to warn tho fruit-growers or Jackson county that each and evory one of them must co-oporuto with the Inspectors by patrolling dully their own orchards for the blight, and If they failed to so patrol llintr or chards, and permitted the blight to spread and mennnco other orchards that are healthy, that under tho law 1 would deem It my duty to Invoke tho most drastic measures warranted by the law to-tlie end that tho blight bo eradicated In the otchnrds of tho county. The laws of Oregon ar ery drastic, nud when tho penalty Is In voked for any orchard Wt permitting a public nutsauco In his orchard I know It Is not pleasant for hint, nor Is It pleasant for me to enforce thexe police duties the law Impom'S on me, you and the deputies working wltii you. From now on I deslro tho Inspec tors to Ik artlye, and they mut ob serve the following liiHtriictloin, to wit: When )ou, or any of the deputies go Into an orchard and find blight wi any part of a tree nbovo ground, nn I do not find the oner of the orchard cutting It out, but neglegetiHy Ig noring the danger to his own healthy trees, )ou are Instructed to abate said n u In tin re In a summary manner as provided by section t48? of tho laws of Oregon, by chopping down said dlteased trees at ouco. If tr.uro aro fruit growers In .the valley who for a day woud neglect to cut out bllcht that might develop In his treet lic.miist not complnln It we drastical I) condemn nud supimarlly nbatu thu nulsanco ho Is permitting by his blighted trees. It has been the accepted Idea that the Newtown apple wan virtually Im mune from blight. In fact, wo wero led to belluvo so by an nblo patholo gist In tho valley, but, tho careful In. spccllon In Jackson county the past winter has demouetrated that It Is n mistake to say that tho Newtown Is entirely Immune from the blight. In nil cases w hero tho Inspectors find blight )n tho roots of any tree you and tho deputies aro Instructed to summarily cqndemu said tree, ox ceptlng In such cases as you may find the owner In the orchard treating and cutting out said blight. That nil owners nusl clean back tho dirt from tho roots of their trees and cxnmluo the sauiu for blight, and havo the snmo cut out to your satisfaction, or olse you aro required to summnrily Condemn and destroy ns per section &4S7. Instruct every grower ho must eradicate tho blight In his orchard or else tho itato will destroy tho dis eased orchard. The orchards of Jackson county aro too valuable to permit tho blight to destroy thcpi. Then, too, nt this time should thoru bo those who have Ignored the warn ings to cut out tho blight, by tho In spectors, and should suffer tho pen alty of having their iUncasod treo cut down, and tho public nulsanco they aro maintaining by thplr negllgenco abated nre not entitled to nay con. tddemtloii jiognlnHL Ihojumjorlty ot tho krpwers whit Imyo tmrnoylly co operated with the IHNioclorn 'ngrtliiBt thu blight.
