Office at London, or in minor places
in legations. Sir Julian Pauncefote,
when he came to Washington, had
never held a real diplomatic post in his
life. He had grown gray as an under
secretary in the foreign Office and was
strictly an office man. Sir Michael
Herbert likewise, although he had
served as secretary of legation both in
Washington and Paris, had spent
years in the foreign Office; and he had
never served even as minister before
he came to Washington as an ambas-
sador.
Sir Mortimer Durand, on the other
hand, has had a strictly diplomatic
career Of the strenuous sort. He has
trained his mind and sharpened his
wits by conflict with the machiayellian
intellects Of the Orient, and Washing
ton Is by far the most civilized post
that has ever fallen to his lot.
Sir Mortimer from a family
that has been in the Indian service for
generations, and that doubtless ac-
counts for the bent of his mind. His
training will stand him in good stead

The state land department has sent
out eighteen patents to final pur-
chasers of state lands. Five of them
go to Turner county, four each to
Brookings and Deuel., two to Grant
and one each to Kingsbury, Marshall
and Union. The final payments are
not coming in as rapidly this fall as
they did last, when purchasers were
paying a years interest in advance
for the privilege of paying up and
securing full title. At that time the
reason was given that the owner, by
paying, could secure q much larger
loan on the land from private persons
than the amount due the state. Either
they are not being offered loans at
present Or the purchasers are in such
financial shape that they do not need
loans and are willing to carry the
state accounts.
The permanent school fund was a
few days ago down to about $16O,
which wa the lowest point it had
reached for years, but the last cent
was drawn out by a county which
wished a few dollars more to complete
a loan, and not a cent of the fund is
idle, all of it drawing interest for the
schools. This reduces the surplus in
that fund from over 100000 to moth
ing in less than q year.

The Standard Oil Case.

The test case against the Standard
Oil company in regard to oil ship
ments which do not fill the require
ments of the state law took a new
phase in the circuit court at Pierre.
States Attorney Goodner moved the
dismissal of the case, giving as his
reason that ml beginning the suit he
had merely acted for the attorney
general on a suit for a test case only,
and that at present it appeared that
Attorney General Hall would take no
further action in the matter, holding
that when the suit was started it was
under. an understanding that the ease
was to test the gravity provisions of
the new law, while the defense had
brought into the case the interstate
commerce provisions of the law, gov
ernins' shipments in original pack
ages. On account of this withdrawal
from the suit of the attorney general,
the motion to dismiss was made.
Attorneys Horner and Stewart, for
the defense, strenuously opposed the
dismissal of the case, and the release
OF their client, as they desired the
whole matter to go 10 trial, and they
denied any agreement to try only on
the gravity provisions of the law, and
claimed the right of their clients to
raise any point in the case when they
went to trial.

lieves he can restore the privilege un-
der restrictions which will make it
generally acceptable without abuse.
AT present members of the house are
in an embarrassing position frequently
through the absence of any retiring
room where they can receive callers.
II one of them receives a care from
somebody whom he wishes greatly t.
see he must go out into the public
corridor, where he is apt to be set
upon by dozens of individuals whom
he has been trying to avoid. There is
no compromise. Either he, must give
up the caller he wishes to see or else
take his chances with the crowd.

their ease while the u~ndesirables
