Russia Uuprepared for War.

1t is a mistake to suppose that Russia
really wanted war with Japan. The Gar
was opposed to it. A strong peace party
in St. Petersburg, headed by such promi-
nent faT:sighted, patriotic Russians as ex-
Minister of Finance Witte and Prince
Esper Ukhtomsky, protector of the East
ern Chinese Railway, founder of the
Russo-C Chinese Bank, and author Of
"Russia's Mission in Asia, has stood
out bravely against the jingoism which
has forced an unprepared nation into a
mighty conAict-to appease land-hunger.
Russia wants an i~ce-free port on the
Pacific; she wants an uninterrupted Pa.
ci6c coast line; she wants new trade;
she wants-eventually, perhaps-China.
But it is not likely that she really wants
these enough to fight for them. The
best, ablest men of Russia know that she
is not prepared for war. The Alexieffs
and the RELATIONSHIPS have tried to
convince the Gar that a foreign war
would defer a political and social crisis.
The far.seeing counselors, and the rest of
the world, can see that war is likely to
p~recipitate such a crisis. With the Firms
smartiag under recent outrages and TAX
ing no pains to conceal the fact that
they are planning a revolution: the Poles
only waiting the moment to revenge
themselves for centuries of expressions:
Siberia crying out for autonomy; a revolt
already broken out in the Caucasus; the
Jews spreading an i%nsurrectionary pro-
paganda of undying hatred; the finances
disordered; every university a center Of
revolution; millions of ignorant peasants
facing almost constant famine, because
of the %inadequacy of the empires eco
nomic policy; with the Balkans almost
already alame, and scarcely a friend a.
mong the nations of the world, what can
Russia hope to gain by a mere war of con-
quest against a united people with a SUI
perior navy, financial stability, three
times as many children in the elementary
schools, and the sympathy Of the civilized
world, which believes that the Land of
the Rising Sun is fighting to uphold terri
torial and commercial integrities, no on
ly for itself, but for the whole world?

Report thst tho Department Of Asricui-
tsrs Wosld Ersdscste Cattle Scab wa
Erreaeess.
A letter from Secretary Wilson to DR..
Van Es. chief state veterinarian of the
state, says:
1.-THE department expects to station
inspectors at convenient shipping points
to inspect cattle for shipment and allow
transportation to other states of the
cattle which do not show evidence of
the disease, nor exposure to it, and pre-
venting the shipment of affected or ex.
posed cattle unless dipped. These In
spectors will also supervise the dipping
of the cattle, and the officials of your
state will be asked to cooperate and en-
force the rules requiring dipping, and
prohibit the movement of cattle from
one portion Of the state to another unle IS
found on inspection tobe free Of the dis
ease. l appreciate your offer of fullest
cooperation and trust that the united
efforts Of our state and the department
will succeed in accomplishing the de-
sired object.
The press report to the effect that this
disease would be eradicated without ex-
pense to the citizens Of the state is err
roneous, as the funds placed at the dis
posal of the department are not sufficient
to erect dipping watts and provide the
dips required. These funds will only
be sufficient to supply inspectors and
supervise the work.
To this DR.. Van Els adds:
"From the above it would seem tina,
the early report as to the action to be
taken by the department of agriculture
was erroneous, and that under the present
conditions our cattle men will have tc
face the problem themselvs, and it seem
that the one they can be made aware
Of this the better. 1t seems that the
following points may be taken into o
sideration with the view Of accomplish
ing the purpose of scab eradication.
"First-Thorough organization of the
cattle men in the infected districts ir
order to insure systematic and co-opera.
tive action.
"Second-The erection of dipping watts
in suitable localities. A dipping plan
should not be required to handle more
than 5000 or 10000 cattle. In order t.
prevent the concentration of too large :
number of animals and owing to the dit
6culty of holding greater numbers fo'
a second dipping without mixing ane
%reinfection. The roundup should be
close and thorough, as one scabby ami
NAL left on the range would furnish
means of r%eintecling all other animals.
"Third-The ANIMALS should be dip
ped twice at an interval OF ten to twelv.
days and thorough measures should b.
taken to prevent the mixing OF undipped
dipped and clean animals. Adimal
dipped twice and not exposed to to re
infection may be regarded as clean. Tn,
dip to be used is the lime and sulphu
dip, as the United States department o
agriculture recognizes this dip only.
"Fourth-lt is important that all dip
ping be done as early as possible at tn
same time, as this will reduce to a mini
mum the danger of u~ndipped cattle in
fecting dipped ones. l furthermore be
to say that if any of your readers wis
more detailed information on scabbie!
dipping, ETC., that will be glad to hav
them communicate with me and will &C
wise them to the best of nv ability"

Convenient Fetters.
Leo Deutsch, a Russian political exile
who was permitted to return to bis
home, tells in his book, Sixteen Years
In Siberia" tales not only Of suffering,
but Of lenient treatment by his jailers.
In Siberian prisons often the harshness
Of the discipline was considerably re-
Taxed. On n occasion, to the vast
amusement of the prison authorities,
Deutsch appeared before the governor
with his letters tied up with a piece Of
string, and it appeared he had only as
sumed them for the moment. But the
complaisapt governor was afraid Of .
visit from high quarters. "Then If an
inspection is made you will be wearing
your letters" he asked. laughing. "Of
course" replied peutsch. "You see,
I've come to you in full Dress" point
ing to his tied up chains. On another
occasion Deutsch's bag was stolen. 1t
contained, among other articles Of a
%convict's attire, the indispensable fet-
tiers, and he had to apply for a new
pair. "Take care You don't lose these"
said the officer as Deutsch packed them
among big luggage.
