COMMERCIAL RIGHTS
 AND NOT POLITICAL
Given to Russia in Manehuria in 1896.

Washington. Dec. 6-The state de- partment has received a long circular note from the Chinese government, re stating the principles involved in the Harbin situation. and invoking the agreement of 1896 between Vhina and the Russo-C Chinese bank, creating the Chinese Eastern railway. to show that the Russian rights recognized therein were only such as were natural and necessary to it's business management and showing that no political rights were thus transferred to Russia
 China protests that the exercise of the rights of administration at Har- bin and along the Chinese Eastern railway is also a violation of the treaty of Portsmouth.

MEETING OF THE BOARD
 Continued from page D

the moving genius of which is R. F. Davie.
 In general way the plan under con. sideration is for these companies to build transmission lines from their properties, to connect at Phoenix or wherever decided upon, with the gov- ernment line from Roosevelt, at their own expense. They would then be fur nished with power at the rate agreed upon. which would be charged to them until such time as it equalled the cost of the respective lines, when the lat- ter would be turned ever to the gov- ernment and the companies would thereafter buy their power. IL would amount to the companies loaning the project the amount of the cost of para phernalia for getting project power to them that they might become custom CTS, or putting it in another way they would be paying in advance for a lot of power. providing the payments were used in extending the power facilities of the project. In the meantime they would get power now. or very soon. when they need it, instead of having to build expensive generating plants of liltlT OWH, lO poSslDiN SCH idlcf WHch they wanted to buy government power. How much the companies would de- mand in the agreement and how much the government would demand are de- tails not yet mentioned, if indeed they have been considered. But another feature of the plan is that if the gov- ernment makes that arrangement with these companies. it would more quickly than otherwise, have a through trans- mission line to the west end of the val- ley. that could be tapped by any group of farmers who chose to organize little company such as is described above. One can easily see how such a plan would hasten the era of general power distribution, thereby giving the farmers what they have patiently walt ed for in the way of service, as we'll as hastening the revenue producing day of the project.
