pine Islands to the japanese, is one OF the
suggestions growing out of the past
weeks developments. This project.is the
outgrowth OF the appearance in the Ger
man capital of the president of pool rep
resenting eight Japanese banks recently
formed for the purpose of negotiating
government loans in Europe but to the
casual observer this Interpretation of the
occurrence would seem TO partake large
ly Of the nature OF a surmise.
The fact that a Japanese financier visits
Berlin to place an issue of government
bonds to the amount of s50,000000 may
mean that the Mlkado wants to pay
some of the Indebtedness OF his govern
ment growing out OF the late war with
Russia. II might mean even that the
Japanese, inspired by lingo talk in the
United States, were trying to strengthen
their position in the face of possible trou-
Bile with this country some time in the
future. Then again It might be true that
Japan was trying, as reported. to secure
the loan of 500 ooO0 as the first payment
toward the purchase price OF the Philip
pines. in spite of the fact that the Amer.
can public has heard nothing Of negotia-
tons looking in that direction
The chances are that If this report has
any meaning whatever 1t has been put
out by some authority as 4 fecler to as
certain how the press and reading public
OF the United States, would regard such 8,
proposition. 1t IL worthy of note in this
connection that Japan, according to Rcr-
lin advices, would have no difficulty in
floating a loan for the purchase of the
Philippines but the japanese would no,
be able to obtain n loan for war purposes
This confirms the contention that lack OF
funds would make it almost a necessity
for Japan to keep the peace.

A DOG NUISANCE,

If John Harris. who is making the
Hariwick Gazette one Of the most
readable papers in the State. could
have his way he would stamp as a pub
lie enemy and prosecute any man who
owns a dog and allows the animal
habitually to run out and chase passing
teams and snap at the horses heels.
He says, furthermore the dog should
be shot on sight by any passerby
whom the animal endangers or auNoys
Hardly n week passes when some one
his horses taking fright at some snap
ping cur along the road. If the owner
will not restrain such a dog, let jury
fix the value Of his life.
Editor Harris also has deserved
word regarding the ravages of dogs
among nocks of sheep in various sec
ton. He sagely concludes how
people will continue to leave n lot OF
worthless sheep around loose to tempt
valuable dogs"
The sheep industry is being aiscour-
aged In many parts of the state BY
the depredations of dogs and It Is
time that this problem was taker
seriously in hand by the authorities
Owners OF vicious and sheep-killinl
dogs cannot be too severely condemn
ed and they should be made to feel tn

ROAD COMING TO THE COAST
of C., VI. & st. r. Spoils the
ROnlancc Of Evart. S. D.

The extension of a great railroad
system that taps a cattle producing
country always means disaster to the
town at the end of the line. Several
years ago Liberal, Kan, was the term
mus of the FL Paso line on the Rock
Island system, says a dispatch from
Cheyenne. Liberal was for years the
shirring place for the vast herds of
cattle that roamed the plains of No
Man's-Land and the Texas country.
The railroad butt through the coun-
Try. iberal lost its vast shipping
business and its importance as a dis
tributing point for the cattlemen that
care t2 the town for supplies which
they teamed" out from Liberal in
wagon trains.
T'hc extension of the railroad
brought settlers and the cattlemen
have given way to the farmer.
The same fate that overlook Liber-
al, Kan, now seems the destiny Of
Evarts, s. d. Here was the western
terminus Of the Chicago, Milwaukee
& st. Paul, and here was brought the
fattened cattle raised on the plains
of western South Dakota for shipment
10 the racking mouse centers.
The Chicago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul
is extending its line to the Pacific
coast from EVarts.
