Mr.. MANNlNe,s CANDIDACY.

The candidacy of Hon Calvin Man
ming, for appointment to the United
States marshalship of the southern
district of Iowa, is receiving cordial
and hearty endorsement from the re-
publicans, not only in Mr.. Manning's
home city of Ottumwa, but through
out the entire sixth district and state
as well. Mr.. Manning has been prom
inent in republican politics for many
years, has always been ready to take
the stump in behalf of the party and
is a tried and true republican whose
services his many friends feel are en-
inently deserving Of recognition. Mr..
Manning received the honorary ap-
pointment of commissioner of the
United States to the Paris exposition,
but has never before asked for a polit-
ical office carrying with it salaried
position. From the character OF the
endorsement Mr.. Manning is receiv-
ing throughout the district (it being
generally conceded that the United
States marshalship will be given to
the sixth district) Mr.. Manning is
making showing of great strength.
So far as known Major Lacey has as
yet given no promise or indication as
to whom he will recommend for this
appointment. The active candidates
for the position are Mr.. Manning, Hon.
Geo. NJ. Christian, the present incum-
bent, and Hon Chas. Hinsdale, of
Newton, Ia.

province. Japan obtains a lease of the

where 1T connects with the Russian
Siberian system. The Japanese also
secure a concession to build rail-
road from Antung, on the Yalu river
to Mukden, later to be purchased by
China. which will open up great ter
r1tory and assist in the distribution of
foreign trade through the interior. The
specific understanding about the tenn
porary character Of these grants is
not clouded by the suspicion that at
tended Russian promise of evacuation.
The Japanese have so far acted in
good faith in their international deal
lngs and are entitled to belief that
they will continue to do so. The
rumors of a Chino Japanese alliance
as one of the features of the treaty
are denied. But it cannot be doubted
that the ease with which Japan has
obtained what is asked for in Man
churia establishes the fact that the
two governments understand each
other thoroughly, and that In the de-
velopment Of the empire along the
lines followed by Japan China will be
assisted by the counsel and support OF
its insular neighbor. This, however,
should not be considered alarming.
The Chinese have had advisers among
the European powers, whose sugges-
tions We're as much to be feared as
any Japan might offer.

THE STATEHOOD QUESTION.

When congress meets the statehood
matter will receive attention and it is
to be hoped that the tangle that now
exists will be Strengthened out soon.
There is much difference Of opinion
about the manner in which congress
should go about the task Of solving
the problem, but surely congress, with
the information at hand, can arrive at
some sensible plan President Roose-
welt and Speaker Cannon are said to
favor the admission of Oklahoma and
Indian Territory as one state and Of
New Mexico and Arizona as another
This looks like a common sense way of
solving the problem. There seems to
be practically no objection to 1t as re-
CARDS Oklahoma and Indian Territory.
By the apportionment Of the lands of
the five civilized tribes in severalty
and the abolition Of the tribal rule, all
serious objection to fusion of the In
dian Territory with Oklahoma in full
statehood has been removed. This
should be treated as separate propo-
sition, In no way to be entagled with
the case Of Arizona and New Mexico.
A bill carrying out the plan should be
passed without delay.
With regard to Arizona and New
Mexico, the case is different. If it is
true that the people of Arizona, who
are preponderantly American, are
earnestly opposed to union with New
Mexico, which is preponderantly Mex
lean, it would lie contrary to sound
American principles to force them in
on that basis. Nor would it be wise
or proper to admit New Mexico alone.
II Arizona prefers to remain a terri
tory until such time as she is populous
enough to be admitted as a separate
state, she should have the privilege Of
doing SO. A bill should be passed ad-
hitting the two states as one but SUBJ
ject to the approval of the people Of
the two present territories voting sep
arately; and if a majority in either
territory votes against it, both Arizona
and New Mexico should be left in the
territorial condition while longer.
Surely no harm would result from
that.
The attempt to condition the admis-
sion of Oklahoma upon joint statehood
for Arizona and New Mexico is said to
have been a device of the late Senator
Quay to pull New Mexico in which he
was personally interested. into the
union. 1t met with failure and rebuke
There would be nothing but mischief

THE OPEN DOOR WINS.

Pittsburg Dispatch.-The text OF
the treaty between Japan and China
regarding Japanese concessions in
Manchuria, signed at Picking, is OF
particular interest to this country as
marking the successful conclusion OF
the American campaign for the open
door in Manchuria. By the terms OF
this agreement China will open to the
world sixteen of the principal ports
and cities of Manchuria, including
Hardin, a former Russian capital and
the center of the Siberian Manchurian
railroad systems. In securing this
point Japan has kept faith in Its ante
bellum proclamations Of a disinterest-
ed desire for the opening of Manchuria
to the world, a fact much to its credit.

times and the republicans Of the dis
trict should and will consider it a
privilege to give him loyal support for
the first political office he has ever
asked for and which he should have
