Russian Treaty Embarrassment.

While the report that our govern.
ment is willing to let the treaty with
Russia of 1899 live another year
though it was abrogated by the Sen
ate at the last session of Congress,
cannot be traced to an authoritative
origin. yet /. persists in being mooted
in diplomatic circles here. Delay, it is
averred. is necessary ito save our ad-
ministration embarrassment" also that
all parties" are agreed that a new ad-
ministration and a new Congress ought
to draw up a renewed treaty. But why
such a report should filter to Washing
ton via Vienna channels is a mystery.
1t is not at all unbelievable per Sc.
and in the absence of anything more
specific it will perhaps be taken as
true. 1t has long been known by those
acquainted with the foreign policy of
the administration that the Russian
situation is a very delicate problem.
There is good ground for the belief
that the United States will be unable
to negotiate satisfactory new treaty.

country for American Jews in Russia.
till the other powers join this gov
eminent in making = similar demand.
For such cooperation time is re-
quired. Hence the delay. and hence the
possibility of further embarrassments,
for the old treaty cannot be extended
without the consent of the Senate.
Tha. body as constituted at present
would probably refuse. thus putting
the administration "in a hole" nation
ally and internationally.

.UPHOLDS VERDICT
AFTER DOZEN YEARS
Supreme Court Decides North Caro-
lima Men Must Pay Penalty
for Embexzlement.

More than a dozen years after the in
dictment on charge OF embexzlinG na-
donal bank funds at AsheviIls, n. C.
the case Of William E. Breese and Joseph
E Dickerson was acted upon by the
Supreme Court yesterday. Tho court Nd
held the Judgment Of conviction against
them rendered in 1909.
The prosecution Of Breeze and Dtcker-
son began in 1Sg, whsn they were in
dicted on charges Of embez7ling and vio-
lating the national banking lava The
indictment was presented to the court
by the foreman Of the grand Jury with
out his being accompanied into the court
room by other members of the jury, and
this. the defendants claimed, was an In
fringement Of their constitutional rights.
The case was called for trial In 1905.
and in 1903 their plea in abatement was
denied. the trial being held and verdict
of guilty was rendered. They sued out
a writ Of error from the Circuit Court
of Appeals Of the Fourth Circuit, and in
November. 1911. that body certified the
case on the question of the grand tury's
alleged improper procedure to the United
States Supreme Court.

Paternahsm Pure and Simple.

Wisconsin, ever fond of trying new
tangled legislation, has gone into the
business of selling life insurance to it.
citizens, aged between twenty and fifty
who apply for it and who pass sue
cessfully the medical examination be-
fore that State Board of Health.
In theory this is for once something
eminently acceptable to the people, but
in practice it remains to be. seen
whether men really take out life III
surance of their own volition unsolicit-
ed by persistent agents. For this rea-
son we fear the experiment, though ex-
ceedingly praiseworthy. may not be a
great success. Another thing: The
State enters into competition with an
already established business and this
will create antagonism against the new
enterprise. While not exactly seeking
to drum up trade the insurance bu-
reau of the State will be ready with
Circulars and descriptive pamphlets to
any one who might inquire the cost of
insuring himself.
But supposing Wisconsin will be
successful in getting certain amount
of this business, because of lower
premiums, the handling of the funds,
the proper care and investment and
the maintenance of the required re-
serve would involve a large degree of
technical skill, not ordinarily found
among State officials.
1t is pzternalism. nothing else. 1t
is going Progressivism one better, for al
though the Progressive platform en-
braces nearly every form of paternal
legislation it does not include life in
surance. 1t is to be hoped that other
Progressive States will await develop
ments in the Badger State ere venturing

RAILROAD PROSPECTS.

H.A. Palmer of Chicago was in
Poison this week looking over the
railroad situation. Mr.. Palmer rep
resents an eastern bonding company.
While here he made a careful trip
over the survey of the Flathead
Power & Traction Company, from
Po!ons to Dixon, and is quoted as
saying thai. it is one CT the most
feasible routes and one of the best
railroad propositions that he ever
examined. AS he has had a great
deal ct experience in railroad con-
structicn, his remarks carry weight.
One thing is certain, the class Of
men that are getting interested in
the Flathead transportation prob
lem are the people that build rail-
roads, and something is going to
happen in that line before long

The following little poem clipped
from the San Barnadino Index is
certainly a very clever take-off on
the girl of the period to whom this
verse is dedicated.
Little girl, you look SO small.
Don't you wear no clothes at all?
Don't you wear a Skinny skirt?
Don't you wear a petty" skirt?
Just your corset and your hose.
Are those all your underclothes?
Little girl, when on the street,
You appear to be all feet.
With your dresses so very tight,
You surely are an awful sight.
Nothing on to keep you warm.
Crazy Just to show your form.
Little girl you won't live long,
Just because you dress all wrong.
Can't you wear more underclothes
Than your corset and your hose?
After while, do believe
That you will dress like Mother Eve
