CHINA'S REFUSAL TO sign.

China refuses to grant Russia's de-
mands for partitioning of her empire
That is the gist of the news from what
is o-day the worlds chief center of news
Not only has the time given for the sign
ing of the agreement passed without such
signing. but the Chinese government has
apparently declared its unwillingness to
sign and has expressed it's reasons there.
for. We can easily imagine what those
reasons are. No nation likes to commit
suicide. 1t was quite evident to China
that if she coded Manchuria, Mongolia
and Turkestan to Russia one Of two
things would happen. Either the other
powers would forciby interfere to pre-
vent the contamination of the bargain
or they would make compromising seiz-
ures of territory or themselves; either
of which courses would be fatal to China
There is no idea that the United States
would do either of those things But
Japan would seize Fu-kien. Germany
-Tung and more. Great Britain the
Yangtse valley and Thibet. and France
Yun-Nan and adjoining territory. But
the United States seems not to have been
negligible factor in the case. On Feb
ru II, as our Washington dispatches
made clear yesterday. this government
gave to China one of the clearest and
most emphatic warnings any nation ever
received. to the effect that 'It would
be unwise and dangerous In the extreme"
for her to sign this agreement with Rus
sia. If any other government gave such
warning the world has not been inform
ed of the fact. 1t will be we'll to take
that warning of the United States into
account when considering the influences
which led China to make her present
stand against Russian spoliation
How long such resistance Will or can be
maintained and what will be Russia's re-
joinder are matters OF interesting specu-
lation. Some say the Chinese refusal is
final and absolute. Others assert that
negotiations are still in progress and
that Russia Is confident of ultimately Sc
curing the desired assent. That will
probably depend upon the attitude and
conduct of the other powers. If they
leave China to her own resources there
Is no question as to what the end will
be. Russia will triumph, and will make
the terms all the harder for this DELAY.
If, on the other hand. the powers give
China their moral support for the main
tenance Of her territorial integrity and
the open door, the partitioning Of the
| empire and the exclusion Of all but Rus
slams from half of it may be indefinitely
postponed. if not altogether averted. Ger

tainly it would seem to be to their In
terest to take the latter course. 1t must
be. if they were as it is to be assumed
they were, sincere in their advocacy ana
adherence to the principles Of territorial
integrity and open door when the United
States moved for the adoption OF them
as an international agreement little more
than a year ago. and again at a much
later date. China Is taking them at their
word. She declares. so it is said her
unwilingnesS to enter into any agree
ment which will or might place an en-
barge upon any one Of them-that Is, she
wishes to maintain the open door. 1t was
we'll said year ago that 1t was one thing
to get the open door and another thing
to keep it.
There is talk. chiefly at st. Petersburg.
of notifications of the agreement. 1t
is reported that Article vi has already
been dropped and Articles Nv, and
VIII have been modified. Article vi was
designed to exclude all foreigners but
Russians from the Chinese military serv-
ices In the northern provinces. Article
" has been changed merely so as to
permit the Importation of arms and am
munition into Manchuria-quite safe.
if all trade Is to be in Russian hands!
ATClClc AdS Uceu SHdueSu pIAly III as
much as was necessary to coincide with
the dropping of Article VI and Article
VIII has been altered so as to let China
build railroads in Mongolia and Turkes-
tan, but not so as to yet any one but
Russians enter those countries for indus
try or commerce. Such notifications of
the agreement do not. therefore, touch
the main point at issue, which is the
practical annexation Of half of the Chi
nese empire by Russia and the exclusion
therefrom of all foreigners except Rus
sians-the shutting and locking of the
open door Such are the conclusions
which now seem inevitable from the best
information at hand, information which
there appears to be no good reason for
doubling. True. there is denial from
st. Petersburg that there was even
mention Of Mongolia and Turkestan in
the agreement, the denial being upon
no better authority than the original as
sertion. and not nearly as circumstantial.
Well such uncertainty serves merely to
give added fitness to this country's dec
laration that it would be improper, in
expedient and extremely dangerous to
the interests OF China for her to make
anys such agreement as this without
the full knowledge and approval of all
the powers now engaged in negotiation"

ELECTION RESULTS.

Everywhere except in Butte, the cleo
ton results are very gratifying to the
re publicans. In Anaconda the extent of
the republican victory is surprising, DR..
Stephens, the candidate of that party for
mayor receiving a plurality larger than
the entire vote cast for his rival. In
Missoula there was a republican land
slide, and the party won out at Great
Falls after a holly contested campaign.
The party had no trouble in carrying
Deer Lodge and made clean sweep at
Helena and Livingston.
In the east the republicans made heavy
gains all along the line and there. as in
Montana, the growth Of republican prin-
ciples is seen.
Mr.. Calkins, the republican candidate
for treasurer Of Butte, is apparently re-
elected. He made a splendid fight, and
the big vote given him sufficiently attests
his popularity.
The results on the aldermanic ticket
are somewhat mixed. P. J. Macarthur
one of the democratic leaders and a
candidate for reelection, was defeated
by Duggan, the labor candidate, while
P. H. Manchester. republican, was giver
plurality in the Seventh ward ant
Henry kroger, republican, was re
elected in the Sixth ward
In the Eighth ward Bryant, republican
won easily.
Up in Walkerville the republicans
carried everything, although the vote
on both sides was light

ST. LOUIS WORLDS FAIR,

st. Louis is having all kinds of good
luck of late. She obtained the $4,000, 900
appropriation for the Worlds Fair with
out struggle, while Buffalo failed in her
modest request for $75OO,OO and Charles
ton was chilled by the GOODNESS with
which her claim for a paltry $3.50, 900 was
received. St. Louis was lucky again when
the selections for the fair commission were
made, and she now has some of the big
gest and brightest men in the country to
help her along, including Carter, Thurs
ton, Mcbride and Allen.
St. Louis intends to completely eclipse
the Chicago exposition with her coming
fair. The city seems to be animated by a
determination to succeed. There is much
of the old Chicago II will tone in her
manner of speech and the city Is evil
IDENTIFY preparing to achieve great things.
Speaking Of the growth Of st. Louis, a
writer in Finance says:
st. Louis is preparing to show to the
world that her much heretofore Wanted
position as the great inland city, the
SUI ply depot for the south and west, is
established, and that no false claim is
made regarding it's commercial and in
dustrial growth. Real estate values keep
apace with this commercial growth.
Population, increasing. creates values
by making demand the most conserva-
tive estimate % per cent. increase in
population during the next three years
| What does this mean? One hundred and
fifty thousand persons, needing 3o.O0t
! homes to shelter them, all to be fed ani
clothed in addition to the million of tran
silent visitors during the fall.

Another very strong argument IN
favor of an American Pacific cable has
just been advanced. 1t is found that

or $365.OOO year. This would represent
the interest on a big sum of money and
in few years would aggregate the cost
of the cable. The subject is to be
brought up again soon after congress
meets. and it is believed that the cable

A PLEA FOR THE PRETTY Girl

The homeliest girl can always cook the
best,
Sometimes a pretty girl can make a
bang-up pie.
A girl. in Short is not to be condemned
Because her face is pleasing to tn.
eye.
The best is always plenty good enough.
And beauty should by no means be de-
spised.
Philosophers may praise the homely
girls,
But pretty girls should equally be
priced.
It's true that Handsome is as handsome
does"
But one can handsome be and hand
some do.
So when a young man falls in love. he
ought
To choose a girl that's smart and
pretty, too.
