cast over Oklahoma recently calling atteu-
ton to the proposed establishment in Ok

that the work contemplated would be an

PRAISES DEAD MINISTER.

Plehve's Policy Will Be Diff

There is always a misunderstanding be-
tween England and Russia. declared ia
cob Goldberg. Russian Commissioner to the.
Worlds Fair. last night. There is al
ways something that keeps the two ma
tions apart. But when these msunder-
standings are cleared away there will be
strong alliance between the two coun-
tries
Mr. Goldberg would not discuss the likeli-
hood of an international complication be-
tween the countries over the recent seiz
ing of British vessels by Russian men-Of-
war. He said that. like all of the other
slight misunderstanding. that will clear
away without damage to either countrys
pride.
Mr.. Goldberg. who is editor and the
official newspaper representative of the
Government, is one of the Russian World 5
Fair Commission. He arrived yesterday
with Max Berkovitz and l.. T.. Robinson,
the other Commissioners, and took apart
ments at the jefferson Hotel.
OF the assassination of Minister Won
Plehve he talked freely. He said his death
was loss to the Government, but he de-
MED that it would cause any serious ap-
prehension or fear among the Ministry.
only two members OF the Ministry
come in close contact with the people, he
said. They are of the Department of the
Interior. of which Won Piehve was the
head. and the Department of Education.
Both departments are particularly hated
by the student population. which is the
most demonstrative of the +Anti-Govern-
ment party.
Won PLEHVES SUCCESSOR
Won Plehyes successor will be named
by the Car personally. Two men are al
ready mentioned. They are Mouravieff
and Vitte, members of the Ministry. Mou-
ravieff is an able jurist, who has recently
codifed the common law of Russia. He
has also procured the passage of acts that
are popular with the people. Vitte is prac-
tically Prime Minister, and | cannot see
what inducement could be made to him to
accept the Department OF the Interior
Mr.. Goldberg said the policy of Won
Plehve would no doubt be continued To
choose successor would be difficult, Mr..
Goldberg said.
The popular sentiment of Russia tlpres-
ent, according to both Mr.. Goldberg and
Mr., Berkovitz. is for the support of the
Government in the war with Japan
The Russian Commissioners spoke of the
readiness with which Russia will accept
American investment. They said that an
American electric railroad in St Peters,
burg would greatly improve the poor tram
service now provided by British capital

have several times heard similar state
meDts and turned from them as false.
The labor plank is plain straddle,
endorsing in one clause the Debs prop
osition that 'injunctions don't go, I"
and in another declaring in favor of
laws giving labor and capital impair
TALLY their just rights.
AS to the Panama canal, the plat
form says that when the Democrats
are intrusted with power they will
construct it speedily, honestly, and
economically, it being what the marty
has always contended for. Evidently
the bitter opposition Of many of the
Democratic Senators few months ago
to the program of the administration
in this matter is forgotten or else dis
creetly put out of sight.
AS to gold and silver and sound
money, the platform is silent and
probably wisely so, for it is very i'm
probable that the party could have
united on any money plank. The Re-
publican sound money plank stands
alone. The Democrats dare not op.
pose the plank or approve it. The
government proper policy as to a
navy is also left without a word, al
though this is question of great I'M
portanoe.
Senator Tillman is reported to have
said after Psrker's telegram was re-
ceived at St. Louis, THE Democratic
party can always be relied upon to
make a fool of itself in great emer-
gency.' 1t looks as though the
southern Senator was right for once in
his life. But Republicans cannot
afford to feel over confident. They
ought to elect Roosevelt and Fair
banks by rousing majority, and
they will if they get out and hustle.
They must not forget, however, that
they have not Bryan against them
whose very radicalism would insure his
defeat, but candidate from the con-
sentative class whose candidacy is not
to be sneered at in spite of the little
that is known about him, They must
remember that the party in power is
on the defensive. the Republican pend
ulum mays wing back if there is lack
of eternal vigilance. They should re-
member these things and get out and
do what they can for their party.
They have ticket and platform
which should rouse their enthusiasm.
Roosevelt and Fairbanks are names to
swear by. 1t is up to Vermont to
start the ball arolling in September
Start it with vim that will give
