tlomnlete Survey at Kennewick.

The party of Northern Pacific sur
veyors, numbering IA, have finished
their survey of the new road through
the Kennewick valley. The new road
strikes the Northern Pacific an eighth
of mile from the bridge over the Col
umbia near there. There is little val
uahle land cut up by the right of way
through the valley. In several places
valuable tracts of fruit and strawber
ries are cut into, but no very serious
injury is looked for except in one or
two instances.

LET US HAVE THE TRUTH.

A condition of affairs has been indi-
Gated in the relations of the county
board and certain outside interests
which suggest that the time is ripe for
the proper authorities to go ex-
haustively into the methods of the
board in conducting the county's
business.
I e Globe is not inclined to be
hypercritical in its judgment Of the
county board 1t has been taught by
experience that very little is to be
expected of the body which admins
ters the important business of RAIN
sey county. The present board is not
very different from it's predecessor.
which treated the taxpayers to a spec
tacle of incompetency and unbusiness-
like conduct which must have earned

mad they been working for a private
corporation. During two years at least
L G l obe kept the board and its
methods before the public in the hope
that the voters might be impelled to
take some interest in the composition of
the administrative body of the county.
The taxpayers put party above their
own interests, and the present board is
a worthy successor to the last. Hence
we have contemplated the proceedings
with what fortitude we might. the sad
ness of the spectacle being enlivened
at times by the burlesque of states-
manship INDUCED in at the board
meetings. The county board is a good
deal of joke and as such is tolerated.
But the joke is being carried too far

manner charged in the present in
stance We protest that no member
Oh the county board has a right to sac
r1flee the interests of the county to his
own personal desire for revenge or
profit. Charges have been made of
collusion and jobbery. These charges
must be investigated We trust that
the chairman Of the board will take the
proper steps to bring about an official
investigation. He owes it to the pub
lie to do so, and this investigation
should be taken out of the hands of
the board and placed in those of the
grand jury. The county attorney
might very properly take the initiative
in opening this investigation, but
whatever authority is exerted to start
it, it should be done at once.

ART COLLECTORS AND THEIR
CRITICS

Every little while some foreign art
critic, generally an Italian, prints an
article in which he asserts that Amer
lean art collectors have been gold
abricked" by self-styled foreign con-
noisseurs or by foreign art agents.
Invariably these articles conclude
with the assertion that two thirds. or
more of the art treasures in American
collections are worthless because spu-
rious. Curiously enough, it is the COL
lectors who are ridiculed and con-
demned. Little or no criticism is made
of those who perpetrate the gigantic
swindles, for gigantic swindIes they
are if what these self-constituted ex-
posers say be true.
But the American public, which Is
shrewd even if it's art judgment Is
open to criticism, Is apt to take the.
statements they have made and are
making with a grain of salt. 1t is not
that it doubts the foreigners ability to
'do' the American collector. On the
contrary. But it does doubt his disin
'terestedness in exposing what should
be very good thing for his own coun-
-trymen. Moreover, it is apt to recall
that quite recently the press Of
Europe-that is, those newspapers pub
Iished in the art centers-were graveIy
discussing ways and means for pre-
venting the American art collectors
from carrying off all the art treasures
of Europe,
Undoubtedly the art collector in this
country has occasionally fallen a vic
tim to the persuasions of the willy
and deceptive foreigner and has car
ried home gold brick" in the form
of an "old master" But undoubtedly,
too, he has brought over to this coun-
try many treasures that the foreigner
would much prefer to have remain in
his own country. The experience of
the average tourist is that the for
eigner, particularly the Latin, regards
the American abroad as a bird to be
plucked, but if a foreign protest has
even been raised against the many
neat and sure devices employed abroad
for separating the tourist from his
money, except in this one instance OF
bogus art sales, America has yet to
hear of it. And until it does ii pre-
fers to believe that the foreigner is
protesting in this one instance because
he fears his country is getting the
worst OF it.

purpose shall not be interfered with.
Presuming on the strength of the rev.
olutionary sentiment or the sympathy
of the police, the student body, acting
with the professors, listened to violent
speeches, sang the Russian MAR
seillaise," passed resolutions denounc-
ing the existing order and destroyed a
portrait of the czar. The university
hall was thoroughly policed and spies
were everywhere; Cossacks patrolled
the precincts of the university, and the
demonstration might have been sup
pressed at any time.
Allowing for the freedom of speech
and action growing out of a disordered
condition of society, this meeting is a
speaking commentary on the normal
state of affairs in Russia. 1t is cer-
tain that revolutionary utterances are
usually tolerated with the greatest
complaisance, but it is understood by
the speakers that they take their
proposal to overturn the government,
but the man who suggests a change in
a minor office is in danger of being
packed off to Siberia without trial. A
condition closely bordering on anarchy
reigns at all times in despotism.
The most complete license in speech
may be permitted, then followed by
domiciIiary visit by the police and de-
portation.
Nothing can be concluded from the
revolutionary demonstration under the
guns of the czar's troops. In any other
country such meeting would be the
precursor of, or an incident in, a revo-
luton. If the student body had been
as French at heart as it was free and
fiery in utterance the meeting would
have been followed by a demonstration
in force against the government. But
we so little understand the Russian
national temperament that we cannot
certainly say whether the meeting was
inspired by a desire for government
reform or vodki.

the record, however, it would be diff
cult to say. The public will never con-
sent to acclaimed lightning method Of
transportation on the highways and
byways of cities and villages, and as
public exhibition, such a speed test
would have obvious disadvantages. A
go as you please race is far more ex-
citing than one Of the now you see it
and now you don't see it variety.
Since it would be impossible for the
spectator to keep his eye on the auto,
he would soon lose interest in this par
ticular method of shortening distances.
Even now it is strongly suspected that
people congregate to view an auto
race more for the reason that some
grewseme occurrence is apt to be one
of its main features than because it
gives them pleasure to see motor cars
flash past
But of course it will be a proud day
for the chauffeur, whether professional
or amateur, who attains this coveted
two miles a minute record. That is If
he survives. He will have beaten a few
other enthusiasts and he will have en-
joyed a new experience To ride fast
at all gives the average individual
thrill, and doubtless the faster one rides
the more thrills one experiences. But
to the man endowed with ordinary
common sense the effort put forth by
motor maniacs to lower the present
record will seem like a great waste Of
money and nervous energy. If the same
money, time and energy were expended
on an effort to make life in the business
streets of large cities comparatively
safe, the public would not withhold its
appreciation. But 1t is difficult to
arouse any enthusiasm for a project
that menaces instead of safeguarding
human life.

KANSAS HAS THE COURAGE

The Clio b e, in commenting on the
beginning of the war against the
Standard Oil trust by the state of
Kansas, expressed some doubt about
the quality of Kansas courage The
Globe now admits that the doubt
was very close to the line of insult.
Our humble apologies to the state of
Kansas, which has already given proof
of an intention to fight the Standard
with such weapons as it holds or can
get possession of.
1t requires some nerve to go into a
fight of this kind. The Standard is
strong enough today to fight state,
even a combination of states. The
people of Kansas have been given
every assurance that the trust will
make the fight an expensive one. For
months the oil wells of Kansas will
flow at enormous expense to their
owners. The product will be abso-
lutely lost. When the state refinery is
for the trust may be depended on to
maintain a ruinous competition. Some
weak spirits saw this contemplated
financial loss, but the people of Kan
sas got mad, and when that happens
dynasties quake. The cost of the fight
is not to be considered. Having de-
clared for fight, Kansas is going
through with it, and the country-is
ready to assist with applause and
sympathy.
What is more to the point, the sur
rounding states give some evidence of
having caught the Kansas spirit.
Texas, Iowa, Missouri, Indiana and
Oklahoma propose to give substantial
aid to the Kansans by such legislation
as will curb the trust in forcing a
competitive war in prices along the
borders of the state of Kansas and in
the neighboring territory. If those
states stand pat and offer this sub
stantial aid and encoura cement there
can be no doubt that Kansas will
make a winning fight
OF the viciousness of the oil trust
many proofs have been given, but it
wanted this instance of a challenge Of
fered to a sovereign state to compel
the attention Of the country to the ne.
cessity for checking the progress and
growth of the Standard. Now that the
issue has been squarely made, it is UP
to the people of this country to give
Kansas such countenance as is possi-
. BILE in sympathy, even though we are
deprived by distance from Offering any
more substantial encouragement. Good
luck to the Kansans

Notably satisfying impersonations in

William Lamp and R. J. Dillon, who
play the rival candidates for prose-
cutting attorney. Mr.. Lamp, who por-

sincere commendation. Mr.. Dillon's
impersonation OF Rigby, the opposition
candidate, is likewise a virile and con-
vlncing embodiment that grows in in
dIviduality as the play develops.
