THE SITUATION
IN ONGOLfA

Now 1OTh, May 1b.---Ine rA8JatiC In
stituSe OF this city has made public
the first OF a series of reports from
Wv. Rockhiil, former United States
minister TO China. and more recently
ambassador TO Russia, later to Tur-
key, on the situation In Mongolia. In
l7behalf OF the Asiatic Institution Mr.
Rockhih recently penetrated the re-
gions where once powerful Mongol
races have been trying TO maintain it's
independence from the Republic OF
China.
The last limits and boundaries Of
this race, which seven centuries ago
conquered nearly the whole of Asia,
and part of Europe, have begun TO
disappear, says Mr.. Rockhill, in the
crucible formed by Japan and China
on the one side and Russia on the 9th.
er. The naive, gullible descendants
the Mongol conquerers are no match
for the canny Chinese trader from
the South and the imperially escorted
Russian manufacturer from the North
who has undermined and transform
ed all OF this country's relations and
conditions.
Seven hundred thousand rather
dull people is the existing remnant of

MARSHALL FIELD & co. LETTER.

y Marshall Field & Co., in their
weekly review Of the dry goods
trade, says:
IAN excellent condition of retail
dry goods stocks throughout the
country is indicated by the interest
manifested in the preinventory sale
the first three days Of this week. A
greater number of buyers visited the
market than has ever attended any
of our previous June preinventory
sales.
"a large volume of merchandise
was distributed with sales heaviest
in such lines as wash goods, white
goods and laces, although there was
lively general buying in all depart
mentS.
This demand for goods for immed-
late use was anticipated from the
fact that retailers future purchases
for the spring season were light, and
they have depended to a greater ex-
tent than usual on getting their lines
in smaller quantities as they needed
them.
Cash receipts show improvement
over those of the corresponding per-
iod year ago.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1914-07-02
LET THE LAW SAY THOU ART
THE MAN."

The conscience of the whols ma
ton is behind President Wilson's &C.
mand that guilt be made personal.
Every one knows, as he said in his
address to congress, that every act
of business is done at the command
of some person or group of persons,
Just as every act of government is
the act of an individual or group CT
individuals.
When a citizen suffers wrong at
the hands of a public official he seeks
redress from the guilty man and not
from the political corporation that
the man represents. But corporation
officials who have been guilty OF Of
lenses against common morality have
escaped punishment on the plea that
the corporation committed them:
The corporation has been punished
by fine. But the fine has merely
fixed the price to be paid for such
acts. 1t has been license fee to be
reckoned with in the conduct OF busl-
ness.
Public sentiment has fortunately
reached the point where it will no
longer tolerate such licensing sys-
TEN. Guilt is personal. The man who
adopts a criminal policy of business
oppression for the purpose of crush
ing his rivals is as guilty as any evil
doer, and he must be held individual
Iy responsible for his acts. Unfair
is crime, whatever
form it takes. If the law that the
president suggests shall stiffen the
backbone of the attorney general
until he begins to demand the pun
ishment of the guilty under the old
law the abuses will stop.-Philadel-

THE TOLLS REPEAL VICTORY.

The passage of tolls exemption re-
peal closes, at least for the time be-
ing, another stage in the perpetual
fight against privilege. 1t saves the
canal from explorations 1t heads off
another subsidy grab.
That is it's domestic significance.
But back of this, or perhaps it may
be said above it, is it's international
significance, for in spite of the Nor
ris amendment, a device legally with
ance to the world that the American
nation guards jealousy its honor and
It's reputation for good faith. Rath-
er than seem to go back on it's bond,
rather than to bubble or Wriggle
or seek defense in legal technically,
it has brushed aside doubts and TAX
en- the straight course.
This action, involving withdraw
al from position hastily taken,
withdrawal in the face of jingoism,
has been supported by American
opinion, regardless of party. If in
parliamentary sense it is victory
for the president, victory most
creditable to him, it is in a deeper
sense victory of the American peo-
pie, and we may say especially vic
tory of and for the middle west. 1t
is the middle west which was being
chiefly sacrificed to the fancied in
terests of the two coasts, and it was
when the middle west rose that the
fight was won.
In this result the Tribune has an
especial satisfaction, for the Tribune
hapan tho fiohtino and has kent I'm
its leadership throughout, conscious
of it's responsibility to the great mid
empire which has made the Tribune
what it is, and which the Tribune
has tried always to serve, to reflect,
and truly to ent.-Chicago

A BUSINESS UPTURN.

While the last report of the Steel
Corporation shows a further falling
off in untitled orders, there are album
dant signs that June is proving de-
cidedly better month in the iron and
steel trade The Iron Trade Review
and the Iron Age, the two leading
papers of the trade, declare that
there has been a decided upturn in
the business. Large orders have
been placed in several lines and there
is a greatly increased inquiry, indi-
eating a more cheerful feeling in the
trade. Trade and commercial papers
also report better feeling among
wholesalers produced by livelier
business, and throughout the coun-
try the promise of good agricultur-
al year is acting a>a business stimu-
liant. All of this goes to confirm the
opinion of men like Judge Gary of
the steel corporation, who has pre-
dicted a revival of business, and
there are few men in the country
who have a better position from
which to take a comprehensive view
of the world of industry than he.

1OWA'S SPLENDID TICKET.

The Iowa democracy has done it.
self proud in the selection of a state
ticket. The honor of the governor
ship has fallen to eX-Congressman
Hamilton. He is man of high char
acter, large experience, and eminent
fitness; no better selection could
have been made. He will poll the
full party strength, and ought to
draw largely from both the regular
and progressive republicans.
For senator, the democrats have
selected the Honorable Maurice Con-
molly, who now represents the Du-
buque district in the house of repre-
sentatives. Mr.. Connolly is one OF
the coming young democrat OF the
west. He has devoted his splendid
education and business training to
the service of the people, and has
made a most creditable record in
congress. He has earned the dis
tiDClion that has come to him and is
destined to write his name high
among democratic leaders if, as now
seems probable, he wins the honor OF
representing Iowa in the United
States senate.
