Three New Treaties Needed.
Nearly a score or more less moribund
reciprocity treaties are filed away in the
archives Of the senate. They used to be
called dusty archives, but the dust is kept
out since Hon. Charles G. Bennett became
secretary. These treaties probably will
never be ratified. But three new ones at
least are likely to be sent to the senate for
consideration soon after that body reas-
sembles in November. The most important
diplomatic duty which Mr. Root inherited
from Mr. Hay is the preparation and nego-
tiation OF a new convention with China
affecting the immigration of the citizens
Of one country to the other. The howl
for total exclusion Of the Chinese is not
as loud today as II was when Dennis
Kearney spouted from the sand locks Of
San Francisco twenty years ago. Then. too.
China has in Wu Ting Fang a statesman
who knows something Of diplomacy, 1t is
safe TO assume that the new treaty will
not be entirely one-sided. but Mr.. Root
has a delicate job to determine just how
far he can go toward conceding Chinese
demands,
Next to the Chinese negotiations those
with Germany. looking to a new commercial
treaty, are the most important 1t is
learned that negotiations now pending in
Berlin are proceeding to the entire salts
faction Of the president, but "details Of the
progress made are not obtainoble as yet.
Mr.. Root, during his visit to Labrador is
looking into the question relating to the
rights Of American and Canadian fisher
men of the Newfoundland coast. The
New Englanders want free bait from the
Canadians, but they don't want the
"Canucks'' to enjoy a free market for their
catch.

The police say they have at least dozen
cases of petit larceny against Mike Muir

is said to have been the theft of brcSlay-

have been reported to the police the last

sneak around buildings where bricklayers
and carpenters are engaged and wait for
an opportune time

OUR LETTER SOI



O'NEILL Neb. Aug lS-To the Editor of
The Bee: Holt county is 6oniinFto the front
in fine shape. our farmers have raised
bumper crops for several years back and
generally speaking the people are getting
along we'll The grain and hay crop Is
all that could be wished forr II has raincd
this summer every time it was needed.
Alfalfa? Ycsswe are raising lots Of ol-
falfa now in fact all Of the tame grasses
do we'll IN our locality and there Is no
place that they can raise more oats than
in Holt county.
The cream business has developed into
surprising proportions with us. was
talking with MIR. Henry Zimmerman, one
Of our six cream buyers at O'Ncill. yes
terday and he told me he had paid out
I,7oo for cream during the month Of
July 1t is safe to say that the six cream
dealers at ONe!ll paid out more than
5000 to our farmers during the last month,
and besides O'Neil there is Atkinson.
Stuart, Ewing. Chambers, Inman, stat
ford and Aurela where are located from
two to four persons who make a business
of buying cream. I think It is a safe
estimate to say that the farmers of our
county will receive an average Of SS5OO)
a month for crelpl this season
Nearly all Of our farmers have hand
scpaTators now. The. cream is separated
from the milk ana the milk fed to the
calves while It is yet warm. =
The beneficial results of so much money
coming into the county are easily imagined
and is reflected in the general prosperity
apparent among our people. our banks
hold more than 100000 in deposits and
practically 90 per cent. of It belongs to
the farmers. The county has more than
$4,000 cash on hand, our merchants are
having splendid trade and very little
trouble about collections
Blue grass? Well l should say. one
ranchman alone sowed two carloads OF
blue grass last spring and you never saw
anything looking better than his grass
land We have thousands Of acres OF as
fine blue grass you ever saw. We
have also introduced bronze grass and It

1T is believed at Toxic that as soon as
the japanese flag is seen flying at any
corner Of Siberia, II will affect NJ Witte's
attitude at the peace conference.
The morning newspapers carry lengthy
dispatches today, covering in more than one
instance over two columns, from Ports
mouth. The tone Of these dispatches in
general is pessimistic. although Il is ad-
mitted that the mere fact that the pleni-
potentiaries are continuing to talk Is in
dicatve Of the possibility that some ar
rangement finally will be reached whereby
the continuance Of the war may be avoided.
The Times this morning Is particularly
hopeless in its expressions regarding the
conference, and almost goes as far as to
say that peaceful outcome is impossible.

Timely Rain at Bancroft.

BANCROFT. Aug. lS-(Special )-one
OF the best and most timely rains of the
season fell here last evening, beginning
with a sprinkle at o'clock and contin-
uing until about 10, when II became a
down-pour lasting most of the night, thor
oughly soaking the ground which had be-
come very hot and dry on account of the
excessive hot weather with no rain. Har-
vestlng is all done and considerable shock
threshing-enough to form basis for a
statement that the small grain of all kinds
is the best in recent years. Corn has
been making a rapid growth, but was be-
ginning to show the effects of dry weather.
but last nights rain assures a better than
average crop.

ATNswORTH. Neb., Aug. 12-Cspecial.)-
The northwest reunion Of the old
soldiers. consisting of the counties of
Rock, Brown, Cherry and Keya Paha, was
held this year at Norden. commencing on
the 9th and ending on the nth inst. A
grander time has Never been the pleasure
Of the old soldiers 70 enjoy, and therefore
they wish to extend their most sincere
thanks for the hospitality and kind treat

MAN WHO WAITS FOR SHOW
He sits on the Curb ana shells Pea
nuts while the CnIIiope
Approaches.

Ever since the days when Mother Eve
attended sewing societies and pink teas in
the Garden of Eden it has been the custom
for women and children to monopolize the
curbing on circus days. Even in the days
when King Solomon reigned in his glad
garments no one ever saw a man sitting
on the curbng waiting for a circus parade
to come along Not that men do not enjoy
parades, but it is because they are en-
crossed with the business cares of the
world and cannot afford two or three hours
to hold down some vantage point from
which to view the pageant And, again, it
has not been mans nature to sit around
two or three hours on the curbing waiting
for parade. He will occupy himself right
up to the minute Of the parade and then
see "the mighty caravan of animals from
forest, plain and Jungle" as best he can.
That's mani
But in these great Ak-sar-Ben days
strange and curious things come to pass.
One day never knows what the next will
bring forth. Thursday morning brought
forth a new creature in a busy world of
circus parades and trading stamps. This
new creature Is THE man who sits on the
curbing and waits for the parade" He
took his station at the southeast corner
of Fourteenth and Farnam streets at ex-
actly O'Clock In the morning and, with a
large umbrella in one hand and a package
of lunch tightly clasped in his other bunch
Of digits, he waited like a modern Job
for the coming of the parade of the
"Circus Beautiful" He was the cynosure
for many eyes and the constant object Of
many comments. Like a world conqueror,
fearfully and wonderfully made he sat
there and gazed into the distant armament.
At 10 o'clock he ceased gazing and filled
his corncob pipe. At IL O'Clock he united
his lunch and ate a raw tomato and a
hard-boiled egg. Little children, clnging
tightly to their mothers hands, looked
sideways at him as they passed. In hushed
tones the mothers told their children he
was the man who sits on the curbing and
waits for the parade, the only one in cap
tivity Then the little folks would look
| back at the man and hide their faces in
their mothers aprons. Some Of the mothers
wore aprons. The children contemplated
this man as they would some imaginary
character OF fairy book stories.
At 1l:l5 the man bought a toy balloon
and at 1880 the Floto parade moved over
the streets before q large multitude OF
women, children and the man who sits
on the curbing and waits for the parade.
That the man who sits on the curbing
and waits for the parade has come to stay
| is matter for the years to decide He is
! here and made his debut in Omaha Thurs
day morning. He is a thing of flesh and
! blood, a stern reality and something de
| serving of serious consideration. Wher
| last seen he had finished his lunch and was
1 making his way to the show grounds al
/ Twentieth and Paul streets where tn,
| Floto shows were giving performances.

It is announced that the so-called Keep
commission will completely overhaul the
affairs OF the government printing office
before congress reconvenes. The annual
expenses of this great print shop is I'm the
neighborhood of 5000 900. 1t is hinted that
at least 81, 100000 of this vast sum might
be cut of without the slightest damage
to the service But the economy, If It
comes, will not be through the commission
over which Assistant Secretary Keep pre-
sides. but through the work OF the house
committee on printing OF which Repre-
sentative Perkins OF New York is a MEM
ber Mr.. Perkins had not served on the
committee thirty days when he reached
the conclusion that OF the annual expendi-
lures for printing a considerable proper
ton is virtually thrown away. Hundreds
of thousands OF pages OF manuscript are
put into type each year which are never
seen by a reader after they leave the
presses Documents are duplicated and
triplicated and in each instance the type
is reset. The annual output of volumes
which no one reads is gigantic in proper
tons Mr. Perkins called attention OF
congress and the country to this waste OF
public money in a speech on an appropri-
atlon bill two years ago. But his remarks
were unheeded. But the row created
through the wholesale purchase Of printing
machines has at last directed public at
tention to the necessity for a revision
Of the printing affairs, and a congressional
committee will take hold of the subject.
1t is not likely that anything like a none
tary scandal viii be developed. but con-
gress can easily save 100000 a year in
