Taft Modffes Order Regulating Prsc-

President Taft has settled the ques-
ton of allowing the practice of Chris
tan Science or other nOnmedicinal
methods of healing the sick on the
Panama canal zone. The executive
order made several months ago. which
members of the Christian Science
church feared would prohibit their
method of healing. was modified so
that there can be no doubt as to the
lawfulness of such practice.
The original order provided that any
one who wished to practice medicine.
surgery. dentistry or pharmacy on the
canal zone must be licensed by the
board of health. As modified by the
president. the order shall not be con-
strued ito prohibit the practice Of the
religious tenets of any church in the
ministration Of the sick and suffering
by mental or spiritual means without
the use Of any drug or material RENE
dy. whether gratuitouSly or for COM
pensatiou. provided that such sanitary
laws. orders. rules or regulations as
now or hereafter may be in force in

IRRIGATION FARMING HARD.
Has Thorny Side That Oaunts Some
Settlers, Says Newell.

Life on a government irrigation farm
is not the bed of roses which many pic
ture it to be, says Director Newell Of
the reclamation service in a paper pre-
pared by him for the Smithsonian In
stitution.
This awakening to the fact that ir-
rigation has its thorny side" he de-
clares, sometimes comes as a star
ting shock sufficient to discourage all
but the most enthusiastic or persistent,
and the more faint hearted seek fur
Their for the promised land.
Those who remain soon learn that
success must be preceded by subduing
the soil. getting it into a good condi-
ton Of filth. applying water day or
night and perhaps all night wading
around in the mud or enduring the
heat of long days Of brilliant sunshine
and the accompanying dust of the arid
regions. the troubles with neighbors
over division Of water. the possible
seepage followed by crop losses or
ruin from alkaH AS a consequence
considerable part Of the first settlers
on every irrigation system sell out or
relinquish their homesteads and seek

NORWEGIAN SCIENTIST
FROM FROZEN NORTH.
Brings Moving Pictures of Eskimes
capsizing Their Kyaks.

Christian Leden. explorer and sci
enlist. who arrived in Winnipeg. Man
itoba, from the northland on his way
back to Norway. where he will com
plete arrangements for another ex-
pIoration into the arctic regions and
an attempt to make the famous north
west passage. says he learned many
things among the Greenland Eskimos
that will be OF inestimable value to
him next year.
Il learned to live on raw meat and
to sleep out in the cold with only the
shining light Of the aurora to warm
me and to operate the wonderful kayaks
Eskimo bOatsl. a feat only to be
achieved after long practice" Mr..
Leden said. Although they cannot
swim. the Eskimos have no fear Of
capsizing their boats. In fact, they
do it for amusement and right them
selves Immediately. l was the first
man to take moving pictures Of them
while they were performing this feat.
Almost the only thing to eat we
shall be able to procure on our expe-
ditiOn will be raw meat. There Is
nothing to burn in the north. and we
could not take fuel along with US.
We shall therefore be compelled TO
subsist entirely on what we shoot and
eat 1t raw"
The expedition will be financed by
the Norwegian government The prin-
cipal object is scientific discovery. and
Mr.. Leden is charged to procure
strange and curious objects of the Es-
kimos for the museums in Berlin and
Christiania. His preliminary trip this
summer has resulted in his sending to
Norway many rare and valuable OBJ
iects.

Mongolia and Turkestan.

Mongolia and Turkestan have been
attached to the Chinese empire since
long before the Manchu conquest Of
China. They never were very closely
identified with the government at Pc
king. however, the native rulers being
subject to little more than nominal SUI
pervisiOn by the Chinese. In recent
years China has endeavored TO assert
herself in Mongolia This policy has
been resented by the Monaghan hered-
itary rulers. In their resentment the
latter have found ready sympathizers
in the Russian traders present in all
the larger towns and the net result
TO Russia as against the Manchus.
Russians have been exerting a power
full, though wholly unofficial. influence
in Monaghan affairs for some time.
Chinese officials were expelled from
Urga. the capital of Mongolia, early
in December last. and Monaghan indie
pendence was proclaimed. Little at
tention was paid in Picking to this
move because Of the more intensely
threatening conditions nearer home.
1t is suggested in some quarters that
this declaration of independence was
due to Russian activities in Mongolia.
Under the guise Of a nominal indie
pendence Russia would find it a sim
pie matter to increase her interests in
Mongolia and Turkestan. already dis
posed TO receive the Russian in
friendly spirit. The establishment of
a protectorate would be the natural
and logical step TO follow, and thus the
annexation of the region to restricted
Russian fields Of commerce would be
obtained.

ARMY PLANS FOR NEWPORT.
Big Camp Site and Longer Ranges to
Be Made Soon, Il Is Said.

Extensive plans for the increase of
defenses about Newport and Nara
gansett bay and for the camping of
thousands of troops there have been
completed in Washington, but will not
be carried out until appropriations can
be obtained. The plans are reported
to include the extension of the gun
testing grounds at Fort Wetherill. in
Jamestown. to give an unobstructed
range seward.
The reports state that the camp sites
selected on the shore of Narragansett
bay have perfect sanitation and wa
ter supply and that thousands Of
troops can be camped. At the present
time hardly more than half Of the de-
fenses are manned because Of the
,hortage Of officers and men in the
coast artillery corps, some Of the de-
fenses being in charge of civilian
watchmen.

United States Would Protest.

In her traditional position Of guaran-
tor of fair play for China the United
States would undoubtedly be obliged
TO protest against the extension of
Russian control over Mongolia and
Turkestan. Pledges made by the 9th
er powers would naturally indicate that
this government would not be alone in
such objection. and of these other
powers Japan is the one most vitality
interested, because of her proximity
and also because of the extensive en-
croachments she herself has made upon
Manchuria Calculation on her aid is
upset. however. by the increasing indi-
cations that Japan and Russia are put
ting their heads closer and closer to-
gether for the advancement Of their
interests in the Chinese empire.
1t is a fixed belief at Washington
that Japan is in accord with any plans
Russia may have for the exploitation
of the portions Of the Chinese empire
which attract her most. In return ia
pan. it is conjectured. is to be left free,
according to the understanding believ-
ed to exist, TO carry out her own prof.
ects. Thus with Japan reconciled TO
the extension of Russian influence in
Mongolia and Turkestan. it is a nice
question as to who would be in a posi-
ton to offer serious opposition to the
plans of the Russians. 1t is not to be
believed that the United States would
do any more than express objections.
and a verbal protest unsupported by
more forcible seldom counts
for much in international rivalry in
the far east.

No Word From Japan.

One cause of official surprise at the
state department at the reports of
Russian plans is the fact that Japan
is under pledge to notify this govern
ment of any change in the status quo
in the far east to which she contem-
plates becoming a party. This agree
ment dates from the Root-Takahira
note of November, 1908. and was re-
ciprocal Japan has given no hint
thus far to the United States of the
Russian plans, Of which it is now be-
lieved she must be fully cognizant If
they really exist.
The United States has little imme-
date interest in the regions Of Mon
golia and Turkestan and little to lose
by these countries coming under Rus
sian dominance; but, on the other
hand. it would have bright prospect
of a large share in the commercial de-
velopment of a rich region when open
ed up in future years If the region
were kept under the open door
regime.
Russian dominance Of Mongolia
would have an aspect more serious in
its menace to American interests in
the far east by forming the opening
wedge for the breaking up Of the en-
tire Chinese empire. Japan would I'M
doubleday demand immense extension
of her interests in Manchuria and
north China. The result would be to
restrict the territory in which Ameri-
can trade would be free TO expand,

and with the railroad situation In the
hands of Russia and Japan discrim-
nation against American shipments
would be the logical sequence.
Our Interests In China.
The American commercial interests
are now strongest in China proper
and are advancing into Manchuria on
the north. The path of development
is continuing eastward. and it has
been the hope Of this government to
pave the way for sharing largely in
the development of Mongolia which is
to come. The first project to be IN
dertaken is the construction of a
transmongolian railway. which would
by its shorter route reduce the time of
the journey from London to Picking
from thirteen days to nine. This. it
is believed. is the immediate object
sought by Russia. Dominance Of Rus
STA Of this region would exclude the
United States from participation in
the construction of the proposed rail-
road and limit its share in the COM
mercial development which would re-
suit.
Japan is prepared TO take advantage
of the existence Of such a railway by
her control OF an extensive system Of
transportation routes in Korea and
south Manchuria. She has recently
completed a connecting link establish
ing a through line from the Korean
coast with its seapOrts to Mukden,
from which her lines extend north TO
the Russian railroad and south to the
Chinese owned line to Picking. These
two governments have within the last
few months agreed upon a schedule OF
reciprocal freight rates over their re
spective systems which will operate to
the advantage of both. This rate
agreement is also cited as an indica-
ton of the accord with which the two
nations are at work in the far east
Russia opened anew an old quarrel
with China on the Mongolian border
last spring over the renewal of long
standing trade agreement. China pro-
tested that she wished to revise the
treaty which gave Russia liberal priv
ileges of free trade in the border coun-
try and also granted her permission to
establish factories in certain MOngol-
ian towns. In reply to pleas for
postpOnement in order to negotiate
Russia moved troops to the Monaghan
frontier The question is still unset
tied, the revolution having absorbed
the entire attention of the Chinese
government 1t is not to be doubted
that Russia has continued to hold what
advantages she has already gained in
that direction and is extending her in
terests according 20 the program she
demanded should be carried out by
