great plains rolling away wave-like to
met the blue horizon miles and miles
away. Turning about one sees the
lofty mountain tops rough, rugged, and
grand, tier upon tier, far in the dis

lows a gorge, the sides of which are
fringed with pine spruce, aspen. fir and
birch trees. to several smaller falls. AS
one wanders along the brookside. among
the trees casting their dark shadows,

mountain, in the midst of this glorious
scenery, Helen Hunt-J ackson-the sing

carried out but later her body was re-

OUR INrEREsTs IN CHINA

The Chinese situation is not exactly
progressing with leaps and bounds The
Joint note of the powers has been signed
by the Chinese commissioners but the
great seal has not been affixed yet, and
there you are. AS long as the great
seal is not affixed, the document will
have no force. and some time ago it was
reported that this valuable instrument
had been lost at the sack of Pekin
Moreover, the empress dowager still
irresponsible LADY no one can tell what
In the morning she may do or undo be-
lore night. As to the joint note, it is
such a masterful bunch of antiquities
that every point in it opens up unlin-
tied avenues for negotiation, diplomacy
and intrigue. Thus it saws that China
shall pay indemnity, but does not fix
the amount. There is some talk of fix
ing this indemnity at 5000 900, which
would simply mean a mortgage on China
with prospects of a foreclosure at an
early date. This question of indemnity
alone is apt to drag on quite a while, and
the other demands made in the joint note
are mostly just as indefinite; and the
longer the powers remain In China, the
more reason will they have for staying
altogether.
The question why they should want to
stay, is perhaps not so clear. England
and Germany apparently hold the key
to the situation. If they decide in favor
Of the open door, the United States will
at once side with them and whatever that
combination says, goes. It does seem
that both England and Germany would
be in favor Of the open door policy as
against Acknowledgement, for these two
countries hold the bulk of the Chinese
trade. If China remains intact, they
might hope to retain and extend this
trade, while in case of dtsmemberment,
their commerce will, be excluded from
large areas.
many, but Russia, that actually holds
the key tc the Chinese situation. Russia
has practically absorbed Manchuria. AS

this province, she will be in position to

still is. paramount at the Chinese court.
II the powers were to withdraw from
China, Russia might be expected in
course of time by intrigue ana force of
arms to absorb the entire country. The
question is, then, merely whether China
is to be divided among all the powers

Primary hanging Law.

Crookston Times.
A curious plan for elevating Georgia
morals has been formulated by a we'll
known citizen of Atlanta. He proposes
that each county shall decide by vote
on Jan. of each year who the worst
man in the country is, and that the man
receiving the highest number of votes
shall on the ensuing Feb. 1 be hanged.
1t is claimed for the plan it will induce
bad men to emlgrate, and that c.e com
plimentary vote" received by those who
had just begun to be bad, but were gem
orally recognized as such, would tend to
create a desire among them to be en-
rolled among the we'll behaved.
