ALTHOUGH Russia is hard pressed for
money, and her revenues, perhaps, pro-
vide no more than half the sum actually
required by her to carry on the govern
ment, and considering, in addition, that
the country is in state of revolution
and anarchy from her center to her cir
conference, and her despotic ruler is
compelled to remain in oue of his resi-,
dences under the protection of troops
that remain faithful to HMM spite of
all these untoward conditions and cir
cumstances, she does not forget her ira
ditional policy of territorial expansion
and robbery and calmly announces her
intention to at once begin the constrnc-
ton of strategic railroads on the Chinese
and Indian frontiers. The various par
ties of engineers have been dispatched
to make the necessary surveys. The
scheme looks toward China and British
India, on both of which she ha for gen
erations had her evil eye. Eve in her
darkest hour the dream of future con-
quest animates her.

SOME of the very latest developments
on tuberculosis are included in recent
address of the great German authority,
Professor Behring. 1t is quite generally
known that Professor Behring has dis
covered a new cure for this disease that
has attracted the attention of the scien-
tifc world. Professor Behring has been
working on his well-known experiments
in special vaccination of cattle to prevent
tuberculosis, and expresses firmer con-
viction than ever that the practice is a
success He regards the method not as
a cure for disease already existing but
only as a means of prevention in treat
ment of young, healthy animals. He
does not recommend it for mature ami
mails, especially those who are giving
milk.

AN INSURANCE man who has been busy
for some months with the problems of
adjustment arising from the San Fran
CISCO fire, says that one of the queerest
questions was the loss on a Chinaman's
joss, a big, gilded god. "The adjuster
found that some sixty or seventy minor
losses we're also insured. When he re-
ported this we certainly had merry
time trying to figure out how much a
god was worth who couldn't care for
himself. But we finally arranged a
scale of values that satisfied everybody"

The Great Mail Order Houses,

The mail order houses are branching
out. They are so confident of their pop
ularity with the agricultural classes and
they are so highly gratified over the
profits they are now making from their
dealings with the American farmers that
they desire to extend their relations with
this prime factor in their remarkable
prosperity.
Their plan now is to not only get the
money which the farmer has to spend,
but what he saves as we'll. They propose
to constitute themselves bankers, as we'll
as merchants, and at least one of them
has already sent out thousands of circu-
lar letters asking for deposits, upon
which the concern proposed to pay in
terest at the rate of 6 per cent, This is
not quite so "cheeky" as the appeal of
another concern for investments IN its
heavily "Watered" stock-a 7 per cent
bait being held out in this case--but it
is an incident that deserves prompt at
tention in several quarters.
Country banks are deeply interested
of course If the farmers can be induced
to do their banking in Chicago and 6
per cent on saving deposits will certainly
prove a great puller in that direction
banks in the smaller towns everywhere
would be seriously neutrality-suspicious.
Need For Trained Road Makers.
1t is somewhat astonishing to Learn
that sum aggregating nearly three
million dollars is spent annually by the
rural districts of our state for roads anC
bridges. It is hard to believe that ir
the last ten years about twenty-five mil
lion dollars have been spent for these
purposes outside of the cities and vii
lagos, especially so when the condition o
the roads and bridges is taken into &C
count. They have now practically tn,
same appearance that they used to have
before those twenty-five millions wer,
spent. The money has literally beer
dropped into the holes in our roads.
But more astonishing than the great
ness of these amounts is the fact tina
Shey have been spent on engineering
projects in almost every instance with
out the advice of trained man. TIL
Iowa Highway Commission has adopte'
the plan of holding a road school for
week in the summer, to which all roa'
supervisors are invited They 60 to tn
Iowa State College where they see a.
kinds of road machinery at work an
listen to lectures on the best type @
bridges, culverts and road machiner,
They are given liberal opportunity
ask questions, and all the help possibl
is given them in the various problem
they have met in their work. Some sue
method as this must be adopted in VII
consin if we are to see any results froi
the S30,000,0O0 that will be spent on th
roads and bridges in the next 10 years.

THIS is time of high prices in Japan.
The war has caused great expansion OF
business and big jump in values. Rents
and wages have jumped proportionately,
and the wages of domestic servants are
approximately double what they former
ly were. Taxes have been enormously
increased the income tax is $50 per cent
higher than it was before the Russo
Japanese war-and the tobacco monop-
oily has exactly doubled the cost of even
the most ordinary cigarette.

AN instruction has broken out in
Cuba, inspired by conspirators who
would like to overthrow President Palma.
Prompt and energetic military action IN
various parts of the island seems likely
to put down the uprising before it be-
comes serious. In any event, the United
States will not tolerate real revolution
and, if necessary, will step in and back
UP President Palma.

The latest scheme of Thomas A. Edi-
son, the inventor, is the holding of
house in one piece from concrete. He
proposes to have steel mOlds for the en-
tire house, including chimneys and
plumbing. made, and after clamping to-
gether pour in the concrete. The JOB
will be left four or five days to allow the
concrete to set and harden. Edison fig
ures that, while the molds for the house
will cost about $4,000, they could be
used many times and taken from one
town to another and that the actual cost
of good, fair sized concrete house would
be about $500 He says he expects to
see houses built this way in the near flu
ture and that they will not only be
cheaper but in many ways better than
the present modern wooden houses
Then, too, they will be built in week
instead OF several months.

NEBRASKA REPUBLICANS
Platform in Some Respects a Radical
Departure.

Departure.
Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 23.-In siren
uous session Of twelve hours, the Re-
publican state convention nominated
a ticket headed by Attorney General
Norris Brown for United States sena-
tor and adopted platform which is in
some respects radical departure from
past party declarations, in that it de.
mands new deal" in the levying of
railroad taxes, and for railroad regu.
lation and commits the party to the
direct primary method of nominating
officers.
The principal fight was on the nom-
ination for United States senator.
Browns leading competitor was the
veteran editor, Edward Rosewater,
who accepted his defeat gracefully
and in a speech pledged support to the
ticket and congratulated the party on
it's Inauguration of new principles.
Following is the ticket:
United States senator, Norris Brown ;
governor, George l.. Sheldon; lieuten-
ant governor, M. B. Hopwell; railroad
commissioners, Hudson J. Winnet,
Robert Colwell, Andrew J. Williams;
secretary of state, George G. Judkin.
auditor, Edward NJ. Searle, Jr; treas
urer, Lawrence J. Bryan; attorney
general, William T. Thompson, super
intendent of public instruction, Jasper
j.. McBrien, commissioner of public
lands and buildings, Henry M. Eaton.

INTERVENTION REGARDED
As remote POSSIBILITY

Havana, Aug. 25.-Font Sterling,
secretary Of the treasury, denied that
the Cuban government had asked the
United States for eight rapid-f1re guns
manned by American artillerymen to
be used in the suppression Of the in.
surrection.
He said that the government had
ordered from an American arms man.
ufacturing company, four rapid fire
guns and these pieces will be manned
by former members Of the artillery
branch Of the American arms, now
here.
The subject of American interven.
ton is not much discussed here and
is regarded as a remote possibility,
there being general confidence that the
government will be able to restore or.
der in a short time.
Public opinion appears to vary &C.
cording to locality, from enthusiastic
adherence to the government to open
rebellion. In this city the general
attitude is one Of loyalty.

DRAGO Doctrine TO GO
TO HAGUE Tribunal

Rio de Janeiro, Aug. 23.-The In
ternationsl American conference has
adopted with slight technical modifi-
cation the Mexican convention rela.
tive to the exercise of the liberal pro.
LESSONS.
The resolution recommending the
submission Of the Drago doctrine on
the matter of the use Of force for the
collection of public debts to The Hague
tribunal. was adopted unanimously.
The preamble states that no definite
conclusion was proposed by this con.
ference, composed exclusively of rep
resentatives OF American countries,
but that the principle in question
should be passed on by an assembly
composed Of representatives Of all ma
lions. as the principle affects the in
ternal sovereignty and rights Of ma
tions.
1t further expresses the opinion that
the declaration should be extended to
cover all controversies having pecun-
iary origin. The resolution recon-
mends that the governments represent
ed in this conference consider the
point Of inviting the second confer
ence Of The Hague tribunal to con-
slider the question Of the compulsory
collection Of public debts, and, in gen.
eral. means tending to diminish be-
tween nations conflicts having exclu-
sive pecuniary origin.

GUERRERO CAPTURES
town OF San Juan

Havana, Aug. 25.-The insurgent
forces commanded by Pine Guerrero
have captured San Juan de Martinez,
the terminus of the Western railroad,
and have occupied the town and rail-
road station.
There WAS no bloodshed at the occu-
patton Of San Juan de Martinez, &C.
cording to reports received. The small
force of rural guards which held the
town fled at the approach of the insur-
gents.
Guerrero wired Manager Livesey,
of the Western railroad, saying:
81 am in possession of your station.
If any more troops are sent over the
Western railroad, will blow up the
bridge and destroy your property
Later, Guerrero again wired to Man
ager Livesey. saying:
eff you send any more troops over
the Western railroad will blow up
your bridges and burn your stations
and property, irrespective of any in
ternational complications or any other
consideration.
Mr.. Livesey carried the message di-
rectly to the secretary of the interior.
The railway paid no attention to
the telegram, but interference with
traffic is anticipated.
Orders have been issued to perma.
nently guard every railway bridge be-
tween Pinar del Rio and San Juan de
Martinez and to erect breastworks op-
posite each bridge to be occupied by
the trOOps.
