TREATY
COMMISSION TERN
Speculation as to the Prob
able Future of That
Body.
TERM EXPIRES SEPTEMBER l
Will Then Cease to Exist Unless PTesi-
dent Extends it Another Six
Months

A condition Of uncertainty prevails
about the establishment OF the Spanish
Treaty Claims Commission as to its
future. Former Senator william +.
chandler is chairman OF this commits
sion, and Senator Chandler used TO be
the closest sort OF friend 10 the Presi-
dent. Then he acted as emissary in ar
ranging d defensive and offensive a.
lance Of the White House and the Sen
ate Democrats. and-weu, that partieu-
lar bit OF history doesn't need to be re-
counted here. Anyhow, the communb-
cations between the President and the
chairman OF the commission have been
of the most brief and formal ever since.
Term Expires September !.
The life of the commission is due TO
expire September l. unless the President
shall by executive order extend IL an
other six months. Under the act Great
ing It the commission WIS 10 expire in
two years; but Il there should then ap-
pear need for its further services, the
President might continue st six months
at a time He has done so regularly
until the present. The new order usual
~ comes about a month before the ex-
piTation OF the term OF existence.
But the present lease OF life IS draw
ing near its close-painfully near-and
so far as known at the commission office
no yIvifying order or extension has
been issued Chairman Chandler some
time ago, It is known, wrote the Presi-
dent recommending another extension.
Heretofore, when he wanted one of
these. he went Up to the White House
and got It signed. It was more formal
this year.

The business OF the commission is 10

war between Spain and the United
States, BY the treaty OF Paris this coun-
try assumed all such. Fully $50, 00,000

Iabor-saviug machinery Of the West in
general
To answer this. Mr. Bryan first gave
his definition Of civilization as the
harmonious development of the human
race. physically. mentally, and morally"
II this could be agreed upon, then,
with a destination accepted by both
travellers, IL woN,ld be possible to con-
slider the different routes by which II
may be reached.
That the machine may be turned TO
evil account; that IL has brought with Il
temptations to new forms Of eyil, Mr..
Bryan does not deny. But 'to argue
against the use OF machinery because II
introduced new dangers" he observes,
even II those dangers are difficult 20
avoid. would be scarcely less absurd
than 10 discourage writing as a cure
for forgery"
Morals Should Control
But that the Chinese government.
even, should be defended by this Eastern
writer, IS almost too much for the pa
tience of the great commoner. He de-
tends the selection Of officials by cleo
ton rather than BIZ competitive exam

ment derives it's just powers from the

In conclusion. MI Bryan writes a lit
tie contrast OF Christianity and COnfu-
cianism.
"As a fountain OF water issuing from
hillside clothes a barren plain with
verdure. SO Christianity has scattered
oases throughout China and is today ex-
erting an influence far greater than the
actual church men, ,bership would IN

tian teachers and hospitals have sprung
up in the wake Of the medical mission

len upon the Chinese home, and already
its quickening influence Is shown IN

The Argus-Leader proposes tha

The Argus Leader proposes that
the state issue bonds for the pur-
pose of building rock faced public
highways. A suggestion of this
kind will hardly be taken seriously
in state so thinly settled as South
Dakota, and in which there is not
even a city that possesses paved
streets. The suggestion is too pre-
mature to be practical but it serves
to call attention to the mportancJ
Of the ''good roads" movement.
The first step in the building OF
good roads is not paving but proper
and sensible grading. The stand
ing water that constantly soaks up
the road bed in low places must
be given an outlet, and these low
places filled, not by excavating
large basins or reservoirs by the
sides of the road to hold the water,
but by establishing grades as near
ly uniform as possible and provid-
ing outlets for the water. There is
work enough along these lines to
occupy the present generation. AT
the suggestion of Commissioner
Dunmire last spring the road super
visors of this county met with the
board to discuss the question of sys-
tematic road building. AS aresult
of that meeting nearly every road
district in the county ordered wheel
road scrapers, and the work in the
various road districts, we under
stand, is now being done along the
lines above suggested. By following
this system for few years our roads
will show a marked improvement.
