Commissioner Garfield is re-

on account Of his report on the

seems to be that he is either trying
to whitewash the trusts, or that he

that he holds. His statement that
the packers are making no greater

If all of the new railroad lines
that are predicted for this season

a great year in South Dakota. The
Platte line Is to be extended to

to be extended to the Black Hills

From the London Saturday Review
when we remember the wild clamor
that ragged in the United States for the
abrogation. with or without consent, OF
the Clayton Bulwer treaty, it is piquant
to read of the condition of the Panama
Canal and all concerned in it. The 2,C0O,-
900 pounds voted by Congress for the pros
ecution of the work seems TO have liter
ally sunk into the earth without leaving
a trace. Operations have now been entire
~ suspended for six months in order that
some attention may be given to tho dwell
ngs of the workmen with view to rea-
sonable sanitation. This great Govern
ment project, as it was intended 10 be,
has been conducted hitherto without any
system at all and with an utter lack n
organization, civilians with military and
naval employees being mixed up in one
body. and all treated with much less con-
sideration than the servants OF any or
binary company. II Is not surprising TO
learn that the laborers arc leaving the
scene in large numbers and that great
diaiculty in filling UP their places is ex-
peoted.

The day has passed when it is ne

THE fact that one Of our great in
4 surance companies contributed
TO campaign fund nearly $4,000. and
other companies presumably did the
same, naturally occasions comment.
There should be no dinculty in
reaching a conclusion as TO the ethics
OF tho affair. when we think Of the
enormous sums required for campaign
expenses. this money may have boen
used for purposes generally termed
Legitimate" or It may not have been.
But the immediate point IS what
right have the officers Of life insur-
'nnce companies to take from the

the earnings due stockholders and
policy -holders and give it to the man

And the answer Is that they have

EDITORIAL OPINION

lsion of peace between Russia and Jap
an comes the information that the
Empress Dowager of china has de-
termincd on the Chinese New Year to
issue decree for the establishment
of "A Parliament twelve years hence.
This is probably the most radical de-
parture made by the Chinese govern
ment in centuries. IL is, perhaps, not
too much TO say that the Empress
decision is the beginning Of the reju-
venation Of China along the same lines
upon which Japan has progressed. The
postponement of the Parliament for
twelve years removes it so far that
there can be no immediate effect, but
the interval will be used in preparing
the people for parliamentary govern
ment. In adopting this course China
is plainly initiating the methods of
japan. which has followed a system
latte policy of having young men edu-
Gated abroad. In some cases japanese
mobiles have worked as walters on
American warshps for the purpose Of
studying our naval methods. one
man who went through this training
has been i'm command Of japanese

LlruReIcAL TENDENCIES.

THE Chicago Chronicle Is disposed
Il to compliment the Presbyterian
Church for It's adoption OF a Book
Of Common Worship" that 70 closely
resembles the Book of Common
Prayer" Of the Episcopal Church.
II believes-that In this evident imi-
tation Presbyterlans have shown a
to frankly appropriate that
which they deem 10 be good, even
though It happened to be from a
church whose forms Presbyterans
from the early days have sternly op-
posed.
In the last few years there has been
a marked tendency among the evan
gencal churches toward more for
NAL mode Of worship. Occasionally
one hears expressions Of regret that
the simpler forms that were presumed
to be more truly devotional are pass
ing. But extempore prayers and ex-
peglences while undoubtedly as rule
sincere certainly were occasionally
srotesaue.
There is much la philosophy e

ouR wATER COMMISSION.

IT HE conduct Of affairs in the Water
4 Commission is not altogether
pleasing. The proposition to use
Council TO authorize loan for tenn
porary hitter by resorting to the old
method Of doubtful legality did not
meet with general approval
Recently the new member wanted
list Of all the employees, their names
and their particular work; and we are
told that In view Of what is being
done the number was surprisingly
large Immediately there was re-
duction in the force
II also appears that the Commission
has been giving out contracts without
requiring bids, although the public was
led to believe about year ago that "a
stop had been put to that sort Of bus
iness.
Now we have no desire to be cap-
tious but we think that no private COR
poration could last a year under such
methods.
Ever since the weldin farm was
purchased there has been made almost
every mistake anybody could conceive,
and it looks as though the mistake Of
extravaganza is perpetual
when some two years a bacteriolo-
gist WAS employed We opposed the ac-
tion on the ground that the services
OF such an officer were not needed at
that time. The answer came back
that hlter plant was to be built at
once. and that there was important
work for a hacteriologist Immediately.
The selection. II one had to be made,
was good one. and the incumbent
has. honestly tried to earn his salary.
but for several years he has not been
able to perform any valuable service
because an that he could do was to
examine the water and report on its
pollution. Remedy there was none.
OF ce.rse the press from time 20
tine. has advised people to boil the
water, hut there is a great class that
win drink whatever comes through the
pipes and expect Providence TO safe
guard them. You simply can't make
ell the people Of a city boil the water
they drink.
The Commission is spending a greai
deal OF money and has All the machinl
