BRITAIN is 0UTDISTANCED.

London, Dec 3l,-The Times, In
another article on American engineer
ing progress, doals with educational
influences and arrives at the conclu-
sion that IL Is not so much superiority
Of technical education which explains
this progress as the fact that Americans
give TO young men positions which in
England are supposed to belong to
long experience,

whole situation and in regretful
tone, the Times says at Is useless TO
disguise the fact that Great Britain Is
being outdistanced The competition
does not come from the glut caused lS
miscalculation MS TO the homo demand,
Our own steel makers know better and
are alarmed. The threatened compe-
tition in markets hitherto our own
comes from efficiency in production
such as never before has been seen.
"At the dawn of the century II Is
well to reflect on the truth strongly
presented by our correspondent that
one Of the most disquieting factors in
the problem before us Is that the
United States have trained body Of
young men determined to make their
country great and who have been
educated to u living, practical interest
in things ncedful to that end

A Case In Point.

Wichita, Jan. 1.-The latest United
States circuit court report gives the
decision in case wherein Connecticut
farmers obtained an injunction against
the city of New York, stopping the city
from appropriating the waters Of q
small river for the use of the city, from
point in New York state near the
state line where the river enters Con-
necticut. 1t is apparently case just
in line with the dispute between Kan
sas and Colorado to the appropriation
by Colorado OF the waters Of the
Arkansas river. This decision would
indicate that when the Kansas vs. Col
orado case reaches the supreme court,
Kansas will win.
