EARL Ii SET ASIDE.

NEW YORK, April g. a dispatch
to the Tribune from London says:
THE Importance of the blow dealt
Russian prestige through the rejecting
of the Manchurian agreement is prob
ably overrated by the English press.
Earl LII has been set aside and the
Yangtse viceroys have easily convinced
the Manchu dynasty that its ancestral
provinces ought not to be surrendered,
but the result has been accomplished
without pressure from the powers and
Russian diplomacy has not received
anything but temporary check.

Rrss1A wITnpRAws TREATY.

NEW YORK. April "a dispatch to
the Tribune from Paris says:
According to information that reached
Paris from a source regarded as Of un-
questionable authority, Russia has
Withdrawn the proposed Manchurian
treaty with China. This step is at
tributed to the personal instigaton of
Emperor Nicholas and is accepted as
avi lence OF his determination to avoid
at the present juncture any conflict with
Japan. Coupled with this news comes
the statement that Russia does not
deem it expedent to withdraw any of
her troops now in M1nchuria and in
tends to maintain the status quo there
until a Chinese government can Be es-
tablished at Pekn strong and stable
enough to inspire confidence in the flu
ture.
This courteous and unexpected with
drawal of the proposed Manchurian con-
vention. until now so aggressively urged
upon China, is regarded as an exceed
ingly clever move on the part Of Rus
sla. because that treaty which could on
~ he wrung from China by renewed
drastic pressure would. after all, only
secure an empty international sanction
Of the position which Russia already
holds in Manchuria and the signing OF
the treaty might render war with Japan
inevitable.
The conviction prevails in diplomatic
circles here that the international peace
negotiations with China will be greatly
facilitated by Russias withdrawal OF
The convention which, by postponing the
settlement Of the Manchurian difilcal-
ties. reduces it TO an affair Of Local
interest. At the same time the present
! Russian occupation of Manchuria is
regarded here, rightly or wrongly, as a
parallel case to The British occupation
of Egypt-as de facto possession that
will approach permanency as each year
elapses.

drink gives labor only $1.67,
while for the same amount in
boots and shoes gives labor
$20.71, furniture S23.5s, build
| ing $20.88, etc. He further says
that if the money spent in intoxi-
eating liquors last year could
have been diverted into the legit-
innate channels Of trade, it would
have given employment to over a
million and a half more men than
were employed in it's manufac-
ture. Yes; if the laboring men
OF Bemidji would spend one dol
lar on PIONEER subscriptions, 90
per cent of it would go to labor;
on job work, 20 per cent oft. In
spite Of this fact we presume the
laboring men will continue to-
spend 81 900 with the saloons
while they spend one dollar with
