Russia VIII Not Tolerate Another
Powers Advances.


st. Petersburg. March 19.-Answering
a question of the correspondent of the
associated Press. a competent official
today said.
1T iS not true that Russia has yielded
TO the representations of any of the
powers and modified her demands re-
specting Manchurja, because no repre-
sentationa have been made. Every ten
tative attempt to address the Russian
government on the subject of our pour
parleurs with China mas been categor-
1caily declined. Russia is a great power,
and has che light to hold negotiations
with any other government, and no
other power has the right to interfere.
Tefttatives made in a friendly spirit

plainly stated, Russia. cannot receive
inquiries regarding the above"
The informant of tho correspondent
OF the. Associated Press admitted that
the power Tebuffed was Great Britain.
he WAS not willing to discuss details
respecting Mongolia and TurlIestan, but
he repeated that Russia abides by the
August declaration, and desires to safe
guard the railroad and her interests
along the frontier. The informant rid
iculed the talk of a military conflict at
Tien Tsin. He said:
There is a misunderstanding about

self-sacrificing public characters of his

earnest newspaper man, Mr. Post for
the past twenty years has given his
splendid intellect over mostly to the
consideration of tax problems, and is in
formed as few men are on that topic of
public concern. He has been during that
time the consistent adherent of the sin

of the man, of his singleness of purpose

advancement of the question of taxation
toward rational adjustment.

POLITICS OF THE STATE.

In the operations of the Republican
state press bureau is to be found a most
remarkable example of systematic or
ganization and political unity. The men
who conduct this bit Of campaign ma
chinery are in a position to give the
managers of Tammany any number Of
pointers. The perfection of their~organ-
ization is admirable but the effect is dis
gushing.
In twenty-three. and perhaps more Of
the Republican country papers, may be
found in the editorial columns the same
article, word for word, on the excellent
work of the recent legislature. 1t is
perfectly apparent that all these editors
did not receive the inspiration at the
same time and all write the same edi-
torial 1t is useless to deny that the
thing emanated from one central source
and that source is the press bureau, To-
Gated in st. Paul. This is only one
of the many editorials that appear from
time to time in these papers.
1t is not the least amusing to observe
the legislation that is held up by the
bureau writer for condemnation and
praise The board of control act, which
has been the cause of such aggravated
discussion as to certain powers meant to
be conferred by It; the bill which Attor-
ney Douglas, himself a consistent Re-
publican, so far as politics are concern
ed, has pronounced invalid in part; the
bill whose title provides one thing and
body another and whose ultimate
object will have to be abandoned par
TALLY, at least. because of it's defective
ness, is being constantly lauded as a
specimen of rare legislation.
Of course III the case of the board Of
control bill, the dispara cement, to which
its partial worthlessness is due, exists
only because the author of authors for
got'' to see that the title and bill cen
formed 1t has been argued that the
error is not serious one, but this argu-
ment will scarcely appear logical or
truthful since the attorney general has
ruled that part of the act is invalid. 1t
is rather singular that such a grave mis-
take should have been made in one Of
the most important pieces Of legislation
which the Republican legislature under
took 1t will make it a little embar-

THE TAX PROBLEM.

There is good deal of popular faith
charge of its duties by the state tax COM
mission appointed by Gov. Van SAINT, and
now engaged in the active discharge CT
those duties. That body has shown the
most commendable activity, and the dis
position has been manifested quite gen
orally on the part of the public to CO.
operate in the work undertaken by the
commission.
The commission has gone cut generally
into other communities and states to
learn the methods prevailing in such
places in the formulation of tax laws and
their enforcement The members of the
commission are all well info1 med on the
laws and institutions of the state, and
are personally men of such high standing
in their several professions. as well as In
public life, as to dispense with all thought
of their being influenced by any partial
or personal views of the extent to which
they should carry their efforts to secure
an equitable and effective taxing system
for the state
There have been many suggestions Of
fered to the tax commission as to the
lines on which its work should be done
in one direction or another None of
these suggestions have come from the
Clio b e. and.none will come. This paper
recognizes too fully the difficulty of the
big task which the commission has set
before it. and the utterly uniformed and,

If they cannot find sufficient merit in
the board of control act however, to
warrant making a campaign on It, they
might resort to another very serious
and important law-the law calculated
to protect the people of Minnesota
against adulterated lard. This is
menace which should have been removed.
The act was framed by George L. Ding
man, assistant dairy and food commits
sioner. But unlike the board of control
bill it does not differ in principle from
its title. 1t simply lacks the penalty
clause. This, of course, may prevent
the act from ever becoming valid or Of
the slightest use to the people Of Min
nesota. but then it was enacted and
helps to swell the list.
The act is an amendment to the old
law, which nearly all admitted was de-
fective in that 1t did not extend far
enough, but no enc would admit that
the new act, which lacks the penalty
clause, is any Improvement upon the
former statute.
Then running still farther down the
line there is a law which was passed to
keep state oil inspectors and other peo-
pie from catching more than fifty trout
apiece in a single day. Like the lard
law. this act is devoid of a penalty
clause and Independently is Of no conse-
Quence.
OF course these are all minor matters
when compared with the wonderful work
of the last legislature" but perhaps even
they might be of some interest to the
readers of the state press bureau edl-
torials. They might seem to illustrate
at least something of the real character
of the legislation which was enacted in
ST. Paul between Jan. and April u,
1901.

Thoughtful persons are everywhere inn
mediately concerned in the weather con-
ditions, especially at this period of the
year. We in the Northwest have. been

previous years; but there have been no
complaints to any extent of the paucity

combined with the reports received from
the weather bureau point to as favorable
conditions as are shown to have pre-

for public congratulation.
At the basis of all our prosperity, es-

GOOD WEATHER, GOOD CROPS.

GOOD WEATHER, GOOD CROPS.
The weather conditions prevailing since
the opening of the spring have been es-
pecially favorable to the crop situation,
especially in this state and generally
throughout the Northwest The warmth
which distinguished the opening days OF
the season has been followed By sufficient
moisture to make it's effect all the more
enduring and to give an impetus to vege-
tation. the benefits of which will make
themselves apparent in a very decisive
way within the next week or so.
Neither heat nor moisture have been
in excess or too long continued up to
the time OF writing. The mild rain storm
which has prevailed within the past two
days has occasioned the statement that
the country hereabouts has now had
just enough rain, and that any material
addition will impair an extremely favor
able situation. That statement will hard
ly be found to be borne out by the facts.
Throughout Iowa and Wisconsin the rain
of the past few days has been accepted
as Providential; while from North Da-

let him saw away, it is his business-we

wine of protection and taxed ourselves
to build our aircastles. A time came
when the castles fell-the dance came to
an end-the music stopped, but no one

We are now congratulating ourselves
upon our unprecedented commerce. Our
exports are swelling while our imports
are shrinking. The balance of trade is
in our favor, and largely. too. We are
prosperous. Soon our private and public
Golfers will DE filled with the wealth Of
the world. SO we say, and so we think.
But notwithstanding the fact that the
shipping books show a large balance Of
trade in our favor the cash book shows
a balance against u.s. What is the mat
ter? Is the bookkeeper classifying the
record? Not so, he is honest. But we
are paying the fiddler. We had a good
time at the dance, and now in the day Of
our prosperity the fiddler demands his
own.
Mr.. Adams, chief of the bureau of sta
tistics. explains this peculiar financial
phenomenon, by the fact that during our
boom days much foreign capital was
attracted to this country and invest
ed in securities and stocks. To pay the
interest on these securities and the earn
irgs on the stocks, an amount estimated
from Sl6o,0Oo, 600 to SOC. 600 is shipped
abroad annually. Another $50, 100000 goes
to pay the freight on our exports, all Of
which would remain at home had not
our navigation laws driven our ship
ping from the seas. Seventy-five million
dollars is supposed to be spent in Europe
by American tourists and American
heiresses in search, and in the possess
sion of titles. Another sum, impossible
of determination, has been used in the
actual taking up of foreign debts. These
items are said to be sufficient to wipe
out the balance of trade in our favor,
Of which we are so proud.
