BERLIN EXPELS MORMONS
Twenty one Missionaries Driven
from Germany.

Berlin, July 22.-Herr Dallwitz Prussian
Minister of the Interior. on recommends
ton of the political police, has signed or
ders for the expulsion of twenty-one Nor
mon missionaries, most OF. whom are Amer
leans or Englishmen, and they will be con-
Quoted 10 the frontier.
The missionaries had assembled from va
rious parts of Germany at the Mormon
headquarters on the east side to meet a
superintendent named Mckay, who usually
makes his home in Switzerland. They were
holding service, when an agent of the po-
litical police, who was seated in the audi
encc, arose and declared the gathering dis
solved. At the moment several members OF
the criminal police appeared and virtually
took the congregation into custody The
women were asked TO leave the place and
the men were examined as 10 their ma
uonahty. Those found to be German sub
jects were released, while the others were
requested to accompany the officers. They

The status OF the Mormons in GERMANY
was taken up IN exchanges between the
Foreign Office and the American Embassy
in 1@oS when the government took the posi-
ton that the teachings of the missionaries
were subversive of morality. 1t was then
arranged with the Mormon superintendent
through the American Embassy that all
Mormon missionaries should withdraw from,
the country within a month, transferrina;
the middle European headquarters from
Berlin to Switzerland Subsequently 40
foreign leaders departed, leaving the Ger
man societies. with d total membership of
S,ooo in the care OF Germans. The authori-
ties say that in recent years the Mormons
have disreGarded the understanding of 1903.
and from time to time individual r..ission-
aries have been apprehended and expelled.
In such instances they have neither ap-
Piled to the American Embassy for relief
nor made protest against their expul-
sion.

EyEcrf8G THE PROPRIETOR.

Just before Congress adjourned Sena-
tor Isidor Rayner, studying the Demo
cratic outlook, asked despairingly:
VIII Mr. Bryan and his followers per-
nit the Democratic party to nominate a
President of the United States and to
send TO the people a platform of its own

he must frame the platform, then we

otI,er leaders want 10 dodge the liquor

Mr. Bryan says that they are betraying

THE CHINESE REPLY.

There is shrewd diplomacy i'll the
Chinese reply to the new Russo-Jap-
anese treaty, as ShreWd as any which
ever was conceived at ST. Petersburg or
at Toxic. and at the same time it is per
fectly frank. straightforward and hon
est, as. indeed, in these poSt-Metternich-
ian days, the shrewdest and most eff
Client diplomacy always is. Whether this
Chinese diplomacy will prove entirely
successful against the greater force of
the two powers to which it is addressed
remains to be seen. That it deserves
success is indisputable, and that it ap-
peals to the sympathy and moral sup
port of the world-and, by no means
least, of the United States-is obvious.
For what China does is simply to take
Russia and Japan at their word. Those
powers in their new compact reat1irm
their adherence to the Treaty of Ports
mouth and their intention Loyalty to full
fiji its provisions. That, replies China, is
eminently satisfactory. especially when
the provisions of that treaty are care
fully recalled. And so, lest we forget"
the unforgetting statesmen of Peking re-

Portsmouth convention, particularly
those relating to the three Manchurian
provinces, and the engagements into
which the signal tories then entered

that treaty any convincing authority for

China has entirely and completely the

"of Manchuria, with the exception of the
territory affected by the lease of the
LiaO-tunS peninsula, it is difficult to see
Oh what theory any other power could
restrain her from constructing railroad
let us say-to Aigun. Manchuria is a
vast region, and the Regents Sword and
the railroad zone extending thither from
Siberia constitute only a small portion
Of it. Neither China nor the world has
any inclination to go back of the perts-
mouth Treaty. But China certainly has
right to expect that treaty to be 10y
ally fulfilled, especially since its makers
have now formally reaffirmed It, and all
nations which are interested in the
maintenance of the open door and equal
opportunity i'll China are entitled to the
same expectation.

AMERICAN PEAT.

The announcement that the American
Peat Society will hold its annual meet
ing in Ottawa next week directs atten-
ton to the commendahle efforts now be-
ing made in the United States and Can
ada to utilize one Of natures resources
which has been greatly neglected on this
side of the Atlantic Hitherto there has
been good excuse for failure to burn
the peat which is found in abundance in
many parts of America. The work of
preparation as fuel has been SO difficult
and costly that many of those who en-
gagged in il have met with extreme dis
couragements. Besides the expense Of
transportation 10 market served as Il
further embarrassment TO the industry,
as did also the fact that connection
with q much better class of fuel. coal,
would often be encountered at distance
of only few hundred miles from the
peat bog.
BY degrees, however some of these
hindrances have been overcome. The art
of squeezing the water out of peat eco
nomically has at last been mastered.
Sensible progress has been made i'll
working the product up into briauettes,
so that IL can more readily be burned. y
process of manufacturing . gas from it
that can be employed III an internal COM
bustion engine has been developed. which
il said TO give excellent results. A plant
of that kind, of course can be made Il

electricity or otherwise. Finally. some
of the large deposits are so remote from
the coal mines that there seems TO be Il
chance TO escape competition with the
latter completely. The outlook for this
commodity at present, therefore, is much

AN INTERESTING PRECEDENT.

The President, confronted by numer-
Gus conflicting representations regarding
the proper man for chief of the impor-
tant new Bureau of Mines, the organiza-
tion of which he was unwilling to delay,
designated George Otis Smith, director
of the Geological Survey, under whose
jurisdiction the new bureau will be, as
acting chief, thereby establishing a prec-
edent in the organization OF govern
mental agencies This step was taken
merely as an emergency measure, but it
has produced results which suggest that
a precedent which may often be advan-
tageousiy followed has been established
Whatever qualifications tie chief of
the Bureau of Mines, yet To be appoint
ed, may bring to his work, il is extreme
ly doubtful if he could have commanded
the experience In organization and ad-
ministration possessed by the director of
