TIE REVIVAL OF CHINA.

Pacific penetration of a great EN-
pire by the use Of an immense amount
of money to develop it's enormous re-
sources has been accomplished, and
the Standard Oil CO. is practically in
partnership with the republic of China.
OF course, the American corporation
disclaims any technical partnership,
ing business, but the fact remains
that the money advanced for the con-
tefnplated enterprises will be furnish
ed by banks known to be controlled
by the STANDARD and it's allied inter-
ests.
The scheme is a s%tupendous one. AS
the available and accessible coal sup
ply for the. world is being slowly de-
pleted. oil is coming forward more and
more as an illuminant and a generator
OF power. There are immense oil de-
posts in the northern provinces of
China which have lain under the earth
for perhaps hundreds Of centuries. No
attempt has ever been made to utilize
these great industrial resources. Lying
beside them are still more valuable
deposits Of gold, copper. iron and
other minerals .....
The development of these
will mean the construction Of rail-
roads, warehouses. pipe. lines and all
the other paraphernalia of great indus
trial activity. Labor is cheap in China,
and with government controlled roads
transportation is bound to be reason
able. because the administration is in
partnership with the developing COM
pany and shares in its profits.
Banks will be established to be con-
tsoHed from New York. this being
made possible by a section of the new
currency law which evoked little at
terlfion when it was put through. In
allTthese great transactions Americans
will be the directing force. the labor
being performed by natives.
Such vast possibilities were never
1,nfolded before to the people of this
country, and If the administration at
Washington lis not remiss in it's duty
the coming twenty years. win witness
aIi sra of prosperity both in China and
tha United states unparalleled in the
annals OF either nation.

party and which public mar would be

EDITORIAL COMMENT
Properly Recognized.

Springfield Republican: There
is no inconsistency in recognizing
the new government in Peru while
declining to recognize Huerta- Recog-
milton of a government after a revolu-
ton is a matter of discretion, and
in each instance the decision should
be upon the merits Of the case. The
general rule is to be. not too precipi-
tate, and the more profound the dis
t%urbance and the more intense the
internal opposition shown to the new
regime, the better the reason for wait
ing. Or circumstances Of special atroc-
ity may justify the cut direct, such as
Europe gave to Servia after the muir
der Of King Alexander and Queen
Draga, or such as the United States
gave EIuerta after the murder of Ma
dero. In the case Of Peru neither con-
ditions obtains; the coup d'etat seems
to have been a mere palace revolution
with the army and officialdom in gen.
eral against an honest but unpopular
and too domineering president who had
himself overthrown the constitution in
trying to override the hostility of con-
gress to his program Of financial re-
form. Such a coup d'etat may have
left Peru tolerably calm, and it must
be assumed that our state department
hears such to be the case.

Standing Aioof.

Ohio State Journal: The social
function at Washington doesn't take
kindly to President Wilson. His
staid and serious life offers little
or no encouragement to the society
Of bellies Inc beaux at the capital.
The president does not belong to the
butterfly world and so the butter
flies are in sore distress. They had
begun to believe that the capital of
the nation existed for their special
delight. The president doesn't think so.
He thinks the capital Is set apart for
the transaction of public business and
as there Is plenty of that, the pleasure
mania will have to be omitted. The
president should be informed that for
every one in Washington who speaks
unkindly of him because he will not
turn he capital over to society, there
are tens Of thousands elsewhere with
heartfuls Of hurrahs for him.

ADJUSTMENTS
Seven Keys to Raldnate"

Seven Keys to Baldpate" has been played for a year in New York at the l Gaiety theatre and for six months at | Cohan's Grand opera house, Chicago. | These engagements are sufficient guar
 antee of the worth of the play itself and evidence that the new type of drama is what the public wants--a thrill
 and a hearty laugh at the same time. The old style melodramas were funny without meaning to be so. Their chief weakness was that they were meant to be taken seriously. The same tricks of , melodrama which are but mechanical if
 at them, may be made to appear plaus- fble if the author himself laughs at them | and invites his audience to laugh with | him. Laughter is the safety valve of the incongrious.
 ed with the serious purpose of producing as many thrills as possible. But the audience is invited to laugh at every thrill as soon as it has been experienced And in the end the whole play Is turned
 into a huge joke-on the audience. But
 the sheer shock of the melodramatic in
 cidents is in way diminished by the
 laughter which accompanies it. The
 quickly shifting moods of the play in duces alertness of mind and thereby force
 ''the tired business man" to forget he is Ntired.
 Cyril Scott of the original New York
 company heads the cast of well known
 players who will present Seven Keys
 to Baldpate at the Jefferson theatre
 Christmas matinee and night and the
 following day matinee and night. Seats on sale Wednesday.
