RUSSIAN MONROE DOCTRINE

LONDON, September GA special dis
patch from Hong Kong contains the re-
markable statement that Ii Hung Chang
has received advices from Pekin to the
effect that the allied forces are gradually
handing over the government OF the capi'ai
to the Chinese and that Prince Ching tor-
mer president of the tsung II yamen) mas
been placed in charge Of the Imperial city.
What is now designated in some quarters
as an attempt to establish a Russian Mon
roe doctrine in Asia seems doomed to MOD
ifcation Hence the prospects OF the con-
tinued concord Of powers are believed to
be improving. 1t Is thought that the an
nouncement of the names Of the four per-
sonages appointed by imperial edict as Chi
nese peace commissioners will furnish Hus-
sia with a plausible reason to join In the
American demand for the appointment OF
more satisfactory commission and give
Russia ground for delaying the withdrawal
Of her troops from Pekin until the Chinese
imperial party shows a more conciliatory
disposition.
Prince TuRn Near Pekfn.
According to a dispatch from Shanghai. 1t
is reported there that Prince Tuan is hiding
within easy reach Of Pekin, awaiting the
result of the present conference of the
powers.
The rumors emanatng from Shanghai
that the expedition which it is said will
shortly start for Pao-ting will go thence to
Tai-yuan-fu. capital of the province OF
Shan-si, where the dowager empress. en-
peror and the court are sojourning, can be
dismissed fantastic. The allied forces
are in no way equipped for such crusade.
The Boxers are still active in Shan-tung

tau reports that 500 Boxers attacked
patrol of German marines near Lan-t"un

A Wise Suggestion.
State Register.


The legislature Is now elected. 1t Is
a capable body aud has the benefit OF
more experienced members than any
other session hat ever met In the
state. The matter Of protecting our state
library aud state records has been called
attention To several times by the Regis
t.r, aud we hope this will receive bust
like attention. South Dakota is a great
state. II is a prog ssive commonwealth
and will make wonderful advancement
in the next few years. There Is no rea-
son why we should not protect the most
precious property Of the state, and we
think the gentlemen who meet at Pierre
this winter to guard the public interests
will provide against any calamity that
might result by the destruction by fire
or otherwise. The coming body Is ear
ly all OF one political faith, and should
they fail to provide for this matter, any
serious results that may follow will be
charged to the party.
