Dor commissioners, was elected to be
editor of the national journal publish
ed by the Machinists at the Detroit
meeting last year, but he declined TO
ACCEPT the position at that time. He
now has been in Washington q month

The article on reciprocity IN the new
Encyclopedia Americana under prepar-
alton will be by Gov. Cummins. VINO IS
already recognized as an authority on
that subject by reason of his earnest

governor is said to be even now pre-
pairing the article for the editors OF the
encyclopedias.
The law relating to the drainage OF
the lake beds of Iowa imposes duties
on the state executive council which
are not easy. There is much indefinite
ness about the law, and the members
of the council discovered that great
deal had been left to that body which
ought to have been covered specincaily
in the law In the preliminary stages
of a proceeding to drain lake or pond
and to convert 1t into farm land the
council will have to be governed large
ly by the reports and investigations OF
the engineer or surveyor who ls en-
Moved. He will have great discretion
and in view of the probability OF local
pressure on him the council has decid-
ed that in each case the engineer must
he a n-resident of the county wnere
the drain is proposed. This will pre-
vent collusion The council may even
send a surveyor from distant part
Of the state to make investigator or

n was oointed out when the bill was

iii great authority and that it was en-
tireiy possible that lakes would be
drained that ought to be preserved Ior

possibility of error.
senator Thomas Healey OF Ft. Dodge
called at the capitol Saturday ana Sc
cured a copy of the drainage law IN

"Some one would do a great service TO
the LAWYERS and the courts OF the state,
he said. Ito prepare and print, IN cneap
form. the laws of the session as they
bacome laws and furnish them to the
LAWYERS. Here we are for three or
four months completely in the dark as
to the new legislation. We get some
idea of what was done by the legisla-
tire. but a client comes in to counsel
about law and we know that an act
was passed upon the subject but are
unable to give details. We have TO wait
for the state publication of the session
laws Nearly every lawyer of the state
would buy the unofficial pamphlets and
later buy the session laws. We ought
TO have some way of getting out what
the legislature does sooner than under
the presen. system

PORT ARTHUR THE MAIN
OBJECTIVE OF THE JAPS

its destination is not stated, 1t is con-
jectured these troops are about to close
in on the Russians rear in the north
east OF Korea, cutting off the raiding
Kuroki's communications. No less than
$4,000 soldiers are in the expedition.
The reported offer or Japan to China
to surrender to her SO much of Manchu-
ria as already has been taken by the
Japanese troops is viewed here with in
terest because of the possibility, If the
offer is accepted by China, that Russia
will hold that the Celestial Empire has
thereby violated her pledge of neutral-
ity. thus affording ground for an attack
upon certain parts of Mongolia that
would be of strategic value in the war
Altho the state department has con-
sjstently insisted upon recognizing the
sovereignty of China over Manchuria,
as evidenced by the appointment of
eonsuis under Pekin exequators to that
province. 1t is also agreed to admit the
existence of a field of war in that sec
ton. which field was under Russian
control at the outbreak of hostilities.
The alternative said to be presented by
japan of an administration of the cap
tured territory by an International COM
mission is not likely to meet with much
favor In Washington. as the experience
of the government in the Boxer upris-
ing and subsequent difficulties in get
ting clear of obligations incurred In
conjunction with European nations
have not encouraged further concurrent
movements of that kind.
