WRECKED BEYOND REPAIR.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and CONNER
cial men at all of the treaty ports are
of the opinion that the Chinese gov
eminent has been wrecked beyond re-
pair, and that the only solution for the
existing anarchy will be the establish
ment of a new government controlled
by the civilized nations. Attempts to
restore the empress on the basis of her
promise of good behavior would make
the position of the foreigners worse
than ever. A popular plan is the re-
storation of the emperor if found alive.
With liberal advisers he could be held
subject to strict supervision by some
council representing the foreign powers.
The personal punishment of the highest
officials concerned in the a~nti-foreign
movement is considered essential. In
terest is forced on Russia and Ameri-
ca 1t is the universal belief that Rus
STA instigated rioting, expecting to
march an army to Pekin and proclaim
herself protector of China under the
guise of restoring order, but achieved
a fiasco on account Of the prompt ac-
ton of the other powers.

was barren of results. 1t is alleged, how

LIEUT.. WRIGHT, OF THE AMERICAN NAVY,
AMONG THE KILLED AT TEN TSIN.
CONSIDERING PLANS
FOR REINFORCEMENTS

WASHINGTON, June 23.-It in
proposed to send the Ninth in
fantry and its transportation
equipments including mules
and wagons to Taku on the
transports Logan and Port Al
bert. Inasmuch as the voyage
will take at least six days it
will be impossible TO land the
troops on Chinese soil before
the third of July at the earliest.
Adjutant General Corbin is au-
thority for the statement that
nothing a been heard from
Gen. Macarthur on the subject
of sending additional reinforce
ments to China. The DEPART
ment, however. is making ar
rangements for the prompt
transportation to China of as
many troops as can be spared
from immediate service in Ia
Philippines.
Acting Secretary Mefkeljonn
was in close consultation dur
ing h day with Gen. Miles, Adj
jutant General Corbin, Quarter
master General LudfnGton and
Col. Bierd, the quartermaster
in charge of the transportation.
1t is no secret that the deIiber-
atoms relate to the execution of
plans for a~ffordins substantial
relief to the small naval force
which has so far borne the
brunt of the battle at TaLu.

The earnest cooperation of the lead
ing county papers in the state, as we'll
as the metropolitan press, with the
republican management of the cam
paign, had much to do with the magni-
ticent majorities rolled up in all the
counties of the state. The press, with
very few exceptions, stood for straight
politics and urged the triumph of the
republican ticket-county, state and
national. 1t is hoped hereafter when
legislation is pending affecting the in
terests of the publisher that this fact
will be remembered by the republican
members of the legislature.

No one in the state keeps in closer
touch with the provisions of the law
in relation to all legislative subjects
than \. T. Cole of Fargo. He calls
attention to the fact that neither the
governor nor the lieutenant governor
have anything to say about a consti-
tutional amendment. A resubmission
amendment simply requires a majority
vote of all members elected to each
house. 1t doesn't go to the governor
for his approval or disapproval.

The state of North Dakota. having
purged itself OF its three months dl-
vorce law. will not go back in the next
session of the Legislature to the quick
action separation business. Notwith-
standing the reports that an organized
effort is to be made to enact the old
law, there is little probability that it
will be successful. North Dakota has
had all the unpleasant notoriety IL
Of the three months divorce business
it wants. At present the state is in
excellent standing with the world. 1t
is the stronghold of re~publicanism in
the United States, has al! excellent
reputation for discharging it's obliga-
lions promptly. raises the best wheat
in the United States, and is On the top
shelf of prosperity and public esteem.
We cannot afford to forfeit any OF this
by taking a backward step in h di-
yorce business. The pecuniary gain
that might result to a few by an in
flux of divorces would be more than
offset by the permanent disadvantage
Of reputation as q state with loose di-
vcrce laws and looking only to gaining
financial benefit from the money spent
by these peripatetic mis-mated mat
rilnonial misfits.

have learned the "de mortuis nil nisi

of it's campaign articles we cannot be-
lieve that the Plaindealer Uses much
salt. But if the Plaindealer force
consumes a hundred pounds of salt a
year it would mean an additional
charge Of a little over a dollar. But
the raising of the price of salt was not
due to the trusts. 1t was due to such
campaign organs as the P%laindealer.
Its articles had to be taken with 60
much salt that it caused a shortage in
the visible supply-consequently the
increase in price. With this brief ex-
PLANTATION we trust the readers of the
P%laindealer will not permit themselves
to become unduly agitated.
