RUSSIA STILL GRABBING IN
MANCHURIA.

When the allies sacked Peking, It
was the Russians who took charge OF
the imperial Chinese treasury. When
order was restored, 1t was the Rus
slams who kept the firmest grip on
China and cut the largest slice from
her territory. Today it is Russia who
still has the longest fingers and the
tightest hold.
These are circumstances which give
point to the news from Peking of yes
terdsy. 1t is, in undiplomstic terms,
that Russia is running the municipal
government of the city of Harbin. in
Manchuria, as an adjunct to her rail
road. There is no indeeision about her
course according to the dispatches.
Harbin refuses to bear Russia imposed
taxes for the benefit of the railroad.
Wherefore, Russian officials have
closed all the Chinese stores and ware
houses.
BY the Treaty OF Portsmouth, Man
churia was practically divided into a
northern or Russian sphere of infiu-
ence and r southern or Japanese
sphere of influence. But this act did
not make Harbin. in the northern
sphere, Russian city. 1t did not give
Russia any shadow of right 70 close
stores and warehouses. And bv
agreement the Russian government
nI 70 IL, -,
about fifteen battalions of about 62C
men each. If this late news means
anything, it means that every restric-
tive provision of that treaty has been
violated by Russia in Harbin.
Ministers Sir John Jordan and w
w. Roc1hill have lately notified the
Russian legation here tPekingl that
while Great Britain and the United
States did not desire to interfere be
tween Russia and China. they would
be under the necessity OF reaffirminG
the need of observing treaty obliga
tions, If the question of the municipa
control of Harbin was now raised
This is the statement from the Chi
nese capital 1t Is good as far as i
goes. But in the light of Russia

China, and blithe disregard of thos.
treaties whenever she fancies, we ar,
bound to say it does not seem likely
to go very far in maintaining tn,
American doctrine of the entity of tn,

NO TOOTH-PULLING FROM
THE PURE FOOD LAW.

Drs. Roosevelt, Bonaparte and Wi
ley have not lost their nerve. There
Will be no pulling of teeth from the
pure food and drug act If they have
to do it.
This is apropos OF Mr.. Bonaparte's
statement TO the President, and the
latter's reversal of DIR. Dunlap, of the
Agricultural Department. By that
showing the ADMINISTRATION still be
lieves that whisky should be whisky.
DR.. Dunlap undertook to reverse DR..
Wiley. his associate. His opinion was
that "a product of neutral spirits, if it
were diluted to a proper strength and
there were no harmful ingredients IN
the coloring or fiavOring' (the words
are those of the news accountl should
not be called imitation whisky; it was
to he called neutral whisky" or re
distilled whisky" or .'recti6ed whis-
Ky" Mr. Bonspsrte says No TO that,
and the President says the same thing,
only louder.
The Attorney Generals conclusion
has this form:
1t thus appears thaG the correcr-
ness of the conclusions reached Oy
this department in the two opinions
to which / have referred has been
tested IN at least four decisions oy
competent courts, upon the precise
question discussed in Dr. Dunlap
| letter. and the decision in every IN
! stance has been that what he ad-
Vises is forbidden by the true con-
struction OF the pure food law.
So far as I am aware, there has
been no decision by any court TO the
| contrary Il would be undoubtedly
| highly appropriate that a final de
| termination Of the question should
be obtained from a court Of last re-
| sort. and / have every reason tC
| think that such determination VIII
be obtained in some one OF the SulIs
| bOve mentioned, or In another pro
Should this determination show
/ that this department erred IN JUS
! conclusions embodied in the i've
| opinions heretofore rendered you OF
! this subject, a change in the admin
/ istratiOn of the pure food law VIII, o.
/ course, become proper. At present
however, in so far as Informed by the
! decisions heretofore made on TINS
/ question. I can only advise you tha1
the conclusions announced IN tnt
! opinions of April 10 and May %. 1907
/ are sound. and that 10 give effect Il
/ DR.. Dunlap's suggestions would be L
violate the pure food law.
! y4t is all. in one sense. a repetition
| of the benzoate of soda incident. The
more the pure food and drug act Is at
tackled. the more Dr. Wiley Is attacked
for sustaining it. the stronger both be
come. Pending the decision OF tn
court of last resort on this whlsk!
matter, no one should regard It as set
tied. But pending that decision, also
it is mighty good to see that the Gov
ernment of the United States Is no
going to give up everything to tn
opponents of the law, as construed b!
it's own officers of the law.
