Yuan Shih-Kai Appoints Alfred
SEE Special Plenipotentiary
to Make Treaty
IAssociated Pressl

PEKIN, China.-PTesident Yuan
/ Shih-Kai has issued mandate desig
mating Alfred Sac, Chinese minister tc
the Court of st. James, as Chinese
| plenipotentiary in negotiations which
are to be- resumed very shortly In
London between Great Britain and
China for the settlement of contend
ing claims regarding Outer and Inner
| Tibet.
In the autumn of 1913 the represen
tatives Of Great Britain, China and
Tibet held conference at Simla for
the purpose Of agreeing upon the
boundary between Outer and Inner tt
bet. and settling the status of autono
nous or Outer Tibet. Great Britain
and Tibet reached an understanding,
but China failed to- ratffy the treaty
ct, that time, not being willing to con.
lcede as much territory as was de.
manded.
Great Britain Is especially anxious
that Outer Tibet be maintained as a
buffer state between India and the
great. unsettled country in the heart
of Asia. Her interest is much the
same that Russia has In keeping Outer
Mongolia as buffer between Siberia
and enterprising foreign powers which
may encroach upon Asiatic soil, as
well as a protection against WANDERING
tribes of bandits.
Would Limit Chinese Troops.
Outer and Inner Tibet are divisions
Of Tibet not generally recognized as
yet and the two designations grew on:
of the Simla conference. Outer Tibet
roughly speaking, is the portion o.
Tibet adjoining India. Inner Tibet +
the more northern portion. Englanf
desires that Outer Tibet shall be nnde
China's suzerainty, merely, and no
under China's sovereignty. Englan
wants Outer Tibet to be permitte0 I
conduct its own domestic affairs an
would limit the number of Chimes
troops which may remain in the ter
ritory.
Having g. complete understanding
with Russia as to the division of inter
ests in Central Asia. Eneland Is fire
to direct affairs in Tibet much as sh'
chooses. and along similar lines t
those Russia has adopted in Mongc
liza. AS China has frequently been ur
able to keep peace in Tibet within re
cent years and India was oyerrun a
various times by Tibetans. Great Brit
ain required China to enter into a.
agreement to maintain peace and as
sure the Tibetans China would not tr,
to make Tibet a Chinese province.
During the trouble incidental to thu
establishment of the Chinese republic
the Tibetans became so turbulent tha'
India entered into direct negotiations
with the Dalai Lama, ignoring China's
claim upon the country. Later Eng
land prevented China from sending
troops into Tibet to subdue it, and be
fore Great Britain recognized the Chi
-nese republic she required assurances

We doubt If any such per cent OF
growth can be siown In the history
Of banks anywhere for twenty-five
years in succession. The taxes paid
for the five years ending December
1924, $3,55e.o5, it will be observed
we're less than one-nihth those paid
for the i've years ending December
1914, S78,693.71. II the sum paid for
each Of the past five years had been
as much in EACH year as it was las.
year, the figures for the fiveyear per-
iod would have been se2,o77.7o in
stead Of s7s,e937f.
The facts are almost unbelievable
and yet they are absolutely true as
the records show. They are IN
doubtedIy without parallel any
where when the size Of the village Of
Hyde Park is taken into oonsidera-
ton.
OF course Hyde Park does not pay
all this tax but the reputation of the
Hyde Park bank as safe and con-
sersatiNe Institution has attracted
money from nearly every state in the
Union as we'll as from the District of
Columbia, Alaska, Hawaii, Porto Rico
Cuba the Canal Zone, the Philippine
Islands. Ontario, Quebec, saskatche-
wan, Monetohs, Nova Scotia, Eng
land, China, India and Turkey.
Vermonters everywhere not only re
joice in the fact that we have the
largest bank in the world in a
country village, but they are personal
ly benefited thereby because 1t is
this fact which has attracted depos-
it's from distant localities, deposits
which contribute such large sum
toward the running expenses of our
State. It is most pleasing fact and
one in which Vermonters may prop
erly take great pride, leading them
when in doubt as to where they
should place their savings, to give the
Hyde Park Bank the preference, not
only because 1t is an absolutely safe
place in which to deposit but because
It helps to maintain the enviabIe pos,
ition which Vermont occupies as the
home Of the largest bank in the
world in country village.

1t may be out of place for the Mon
itor to say it, but whoever makes up
the personnel OF the new state board
of education win be placed under a
great handicap in the difficult task of
arranging a new course of study, en-
gaging new superintendent, APP
pointing union superintendent and
carrying out the other numerous com
plicated provisions of the new educa-
tional bill, unless they can begin
work at onee.-Barton Monitor.
1t is only little more than a
month to the close of the school year
and schools and school management
all over the state are becoming EN-,
barassed because they cannot go
ahead with plans for next year until
the situation in relation to superin-
tendents is made clear so that teach
ers may be engaged and work laid
out Since the Monitors paragraph
was printed the new board of educa-
ton has been appointed 1t should
and probably will provide working
arrangement within few days In
the meantime the towns should be
getting ready to increase their
school taxes. The education bill
passed in haste by the legislature APP
pears to create a considerably in.
creased expense account for school
purposes and to provide only part
of the money to pay the bills.

The administration note to Ger
many does not appear to warrant the
Interpretation put OH it either by sen
sational newspapers or by the pro
British pressure which is try
ing foolishly to force this
country into alliance with Eng
land against Germany. The
note is dignifed and friendly
statement of the American conten-
ton as interpreted by President VIII
son and on the whole gives the inn
preston that the intentions of the
United States are wholly pacific and
that America win stand good deal
to maintain peace, We have in this
country country has a
large element OF emotional people
who would like to have the United
States rush into war Just for the ex-
element and thrill that goes with
war. Then we have large and
dangerous pro-British element-sons
and grandsons of John Bun who are
more loyal to England, than they are
to the United States just the same
as we have a similar but smaller pro
German element which is more loyal
to Germany than this country With
these three dangerous factions to en-
dure and control II is plain that the
level headed citizens of the United
states have no easy matter TO keep
this country out of trouble. We have
endured from Mexico fifty times
what we have yet suffered from the
Germans and English and have main
tanned peace. 1t is no time to let
frothy partisans have any influence
on the affairs of state.

begins TO mold it.
The plans which God has for indi-
viduais are often thwarted We are
free moral agents. We can yield 10
God or we can refuse 20 do So There
are many who refuse to yield them
selves to him, and consequently they
are not what God intended they should
be, and do not fiji the place he intended
they should fill There are others who
only make a partial surrender, and God
cannot shape them or use them as he

MasT Who Rebel
Then. there are those VINO at some
time yielded themselves to God. but
they rebelled and resisted. ana the

plans have been frustrated. In this

and on the ranches, there are multi
tudes OF people Of this kind People
who at some time meant something to
the church, and to Gods great cause,
but who do not now.
To all OF these, to those who have
