Our Manchurian Interests.

Lord Cranborne. the British foreign
secretary, yesterday announced that the
government was perfectly satisfied with
the Russian official declarations. II Is
satisfied that Niu-chuang has not been
reoccupied and that Russia's statement
that she has no idea Of closing any ports
to the outside world and that she Is sure
to carry out her oft-repeated pledges Of
evacuating Manchuria is true. Lord
Cranborne declared that there Is no rea-
son why concerted action between Great
Britain. Japan and the United States
should be secured to make Russia fulfil
her evacuation assurance promptly. Jap
an the ally Of Great Britain does not
contemplate the situation as optimistic
ally as does her big partner. who is com
mitted to help her as against the serious
menaces Of Russia
Our government has reason to insist
upon the open-door OF trade policy, for
more than a fourth Of our cotton goods

What for Breakfast?

Every little while there arises prophe+
who discourses concerning breakfast. OF
late we. have heard much from one who
resides in Meadyille, Pa, but whose name
we have forgotten. He breaches the sos-

rightly, one of his preachments, fourteen
physicians had given him up to die and
he had all the symptoms mentioned in
some patent medicine advertisements At
night after q hard days work he was
often tired. In the morning he found it

he often failed. Sometimes he found that
after eating beefsteak and New Eng

Hard exercise led to rapid breathing. and
after running up three flights OF stairs
he was troubled with perspiration. Alto
sether he was miserable and the future
looked dark and hopeless.
At this critical moment the pronhet
from Meadville took to going without
breakfast. The Improvement was imme-

DIR, Ames' Sentean>

Ever since the jury found rorner Mayor
Arnes guilty there has been much discus
sion as to what kind Of sentence the man
and the crime deserve, and it is under
stood that Judge Elliott has received
much gratuitous advice, largely from those
who hold that the former mayor should be
let off with a fine.
The advocates Of the imposition Of a
mere fine urge that the mayors age-61-
which In his case is old age, his physical
weakness, his sufferings from disease, his
complete humiliation and abasement as
good and sufficient reasons for sparing
him the last stroke of misery and shame
a states prison sentence. Summed up,
their argument is one of pity and kind
ness
IS Those who insist that there must be
nent member of the greedy and pitiless
organization that squeezed vile revenue
from vice and wretchedness can not log
scally or justly be allowed to go free of a
prison sentence, when two Of his subordi-
mates, both in office and in the division Of
the graft" are already in prison, and
enc other is under sentence for long
term Of years.
The extremists of this group contend
that as the head Of the graft system,
and also on account Of his greater prom
inence and responsibility as mayor, Ames'
sentence ought to be longer than that of
any of his associates In Crimes In brief.
this argument is one Of Justice, untem-
pered by mercy.
The law gives the court great latitude
IN fixing the punishment for the crime of
which DR.. Ames Is convicted. Courts gen
orally exercise the discretion permitted
them In such matters after a consideration
OF the circumstances of the crime, such
as the temptation or provocation, and Of
the guilty PERSONS attitude subsequent to
arrest. There is often, too, allowance
made for the convict's state of health
and his family relations.
Taking all these elements into consider
alton, 50 far as they appear in DR.. Ames'
case, 1t Is hard to avoid the conclusion
that Judge Elliott will find it to be his
duty to impose prison sentence, whether

siderations Of public policy that must be
taken into account, and these tend to
strengthen the conclusion that q, PRISON
sentence is inevitable. When DR.. Anne.

OF Minneapolis The whole country has
been told Of the crimes Of himself and
associates and the shame Of Minneapolis
has been widely heralded The country is
watching closely to see whether this
community is in earnest and inexorable
IN its self publication. The comments
OF the press everywhere show this. So
far we have done WELL To punish the
chief offender. the responsible source Of
the whole scandal. with nothing but a
fine. would be to give q climax with a
touch OF burlesque instead Of solemn
justice.

Greed and Bad Faith.

According to the statement Of a Co.
limbian congressman. recently interviewed
IN New York, there Is strong probable
ity that the extra session of the Colom-
bian congress will be hostile to ratification
of the treaty touching the construction of
the isthnian canal Senior Carbonnell says
that the constituents OF nearly every Co.
lombian congressman have petitioned for
the rejection of the treaty, on the ground
that not enough money Is offered by our
government for the concession, and that
the lease of the canal strip, with privilege
OF renewal, Is equivalent to perpetual con-
troll by the United States of the territory.
These objections have been threshed over
for the past year. Our government raised
the price Of the concession last year and
the Colombian negotiator at Washington
agreed to 1t. It is not likely that the stu
pid greed Of Colombia, can extract any
more money from the United States treas
ury than that already offered It is, more
over, very certain that the United States
VIII not consent to any greater measure Of
Joint control over the Panama canal than
the tenuous amount expressed in the ca
nal treaty. It would be the very climax Of
folly for our government to commit itself
to articles Of partnership with a govern
ment whose caprices have made it some,
thing Of farce and which is liable to be
disintegrated by revolution.
The people Of the state of Panama, thru.
which the canal route is projected, are in
favor of the ratification of the treaty
as they are sensible enough to see the
value OF the waterway to them. There is
q party there which favors secession and
annexation to the United States. But.
by the constitution of 1885, the indepen-
dence OF the nine states of the United
States of Colombia was abolished and tha
states We're transferred into departments
and the governors reduced to the f,,nc-
lions OF projects for the central govern
ment. the head of which is chosen for

Voltaire and as energetic as balloon.
HIS general health improved immensely,
the fourteen doctors who had given him
up had to take him down, ambition sprang
anew IN his breast, life became delight
Tfui' the future bright and every prospect
pleased. After this gentleman got into
print thousands Of Americans took up the
no breakfast cure. Most OF them have
abandoned it already. but others
doubtless come to work every morning
with no fuel In the furnace. fancying that
they are feeling better.
There Is man In st. Paul who has no
sympathy with this doctrine OF light
or no breakfast. He is the principal OF
the Humboldt school in that city. and he
has seen too many children collapse or
become dull during the first half OF the
day, after a cheerful beginning, to take
any stock In the idea that hard work can
be done with nothing to feed energy. Mr.
Baker says that, there Is a widespread
belief that light breakfast is sufficient.
This. he says. is all wrong and that small
but aggressive band Of large breakfast
eaters will agree with him. What the
body and mind need said Mr.. Baker,
rs meat or eggs or some other nutritious
food to give them the strength to stand
the strain Of hard work. II you try eat
ing real food in the morning you will
soon discover that when you come home
at night you will feel that life after all
is worth living
This breakfast problem. like most other
individual problems. must be settled by
the individual or his doctor; but for our
part we will take our chances with the
man who starts for work in the morning
with a large and nutritious breakfast, un-
derneath> his vest. Somehow he reminds
US of the man with a full coal bin during
the coal strike. 81 -
