Washington, May 14.-Women ap-

good old political injunction, Blessed

If thet do not stop quarreling among
themselves. the women may yet inherit
their political power, but just now it
is the sovereign state Of Missouri that

A WISE PRECAUrIoN.

While the desire has been for this government to make a good impression upon others by the manner in which the provisions of the naval agreement are carried out, it is only good judgment that halts the putting into full operation of the terms until 1t is shown that the other countries are going to do likewise We have taken the leadership in advo- eating the reduction in naval armament and we are prepared to lead the way if necessary when 1t comes to complying herewith, but it would be folly to pur- sue such a course blindIy and without regard for the others.
 Thus Secretary Derby Is on good ground when he declares that this gov ernment will do no more in the way of scrapping warships until France and Italy, the two countries which have not as yet signed. afhx their approval to the agreement There has been nothing to Indicate that they do not intend to, but other matters which they apparently believe to be mora important have been occupying their attention and still do How soon it will be that they will find time to take the needed action Is not in. dlcated.
 In the meantime the attitude of the United States is not to be interpreted a, showing lack of confidence in these countries, but simply shows a recogn. tion of the need of self protection. SucI ships as have been scrapped by tht United States represent no serious loss but the parting with others would do sc until the agreement Is ratified.

THE STATE sUnpLUs.

It is gratifying showing which is made by the state treasurer when he re- ports the expenses of the state for the past fiscal year all met and surplus of oyer a third of a million in the treas ury That is of course only what the provision of adequate revenue in order to meet the appropriations made by the legislature should accomplish, and the report shows not only that the state Is now keeping well within its revenue but that 1t has made handsome strides in the reduction of indebtedness.
 The reduction in the state debt by | million and a third within the yean bringing the net debt just under five million. not only means that the interest account of the state is steadily being de creased but it also points to an early meeting of the rest Of the indebtedness Significant is the fact that while the leg. islature authorized an additional bond issue of five million dollars it was nee essary to issue bonds only to the extent of two million.
 With a surplus in the treasury for thS first time in four years 1t becomes ey.. dent that the state has overcome that deplorable situation which too long ex. isted of plunging into expenditures ir . excess of the revenue. The policy oi economical administration has likewiss 1 had its good results The situation can not fail to please the entire state. It i. the natural outcome of the policy to re . strict expenditures to what was neces | sary.

Southern Rhodesla.


 Entrance of Southern Rhodesia into the Union of South Africa will supply still another parallel between the United States of America and Africa's United States,'" says 8 bulletin from the Washington, D. C., headquarters of the National Geographic Society, in regard to the region, made famous by Cecll Rhodes, which has practically completed arrangements for casting its lot with the older provinces of the Union.
 "Just as the United States, a genera tion or so ago, reached out to the west l and made it's territories, one after an other, into states continues the bulle- tin, 50 the Union of South Africa Is reaching northward-it is in that direc- ton that the course of African empire takes it's way-and is incorporating the frontier regions. Technically the Union has had no definite claim on the British colonies, protectorates and regions more or less under British control that lie to ! the north: but it has boasted that it is

 "StiIl other sinlilarities between Southern Rhodesia and some portions of the United States lie in physical condi- tions and climate. The country IS a plateau region, dry and hot during the southern summer, but with a reasonable rainfall usually during other portions Of the year But at times it has it's severe droughts which parch crops and deci- mate herds
 Tn one way Southern Rhodesia is without parallel in the United States. for nothing approaching ownership of an empire by a commercial corporation has ever come up in our history. In fact, in the extent to which such control has gone, Southern Rhodesia, together with Northern Rhodesia and adjacent terri tories, stands alone even in British ex- perience, which contains the stirring history of the East India Company's ex- ploits in India.
 ''The region, nearly half 4 million square miles in extent, became, through concessions from native chief, a royal charter from the British crown, and conquest, virtually the private property of the British South Africa Company. of which Cecil Rhodes was the moving spirit. The comnany. as might be ex- pected of any d velopm ental enterprise l sold Iand leased mineral rights, and l built railroads and other engineering works But beside all this it actually i governed the country, though in latt years the imperial government has as stunned some measure of control over the company's governmental activities.
