Tlie treaty of pern Iwtween Japan and Russia wa si-nied yesterday, and the arduous tak of the peace commis sioners is at an end. This is cause for confrrat illation from the world at large. "While there was not at any time dur ing the sessions of the plenipotentiaries scarcely a doubt but that peace would be the final outcome of their labors, ret there have been times when it seemed that they had come to the part ingof the ways; but there stood behind them the one commanding figure of Pre ident Roosevelt, now recognized as tiie greatest diplomat living, who with great foresight had brought the waring na tions together at Portsmouth in the en deavor to end the bloodv war in the East. Does anyone for a moment imagine that President Roosevelt would have undertaken this step to secure peace un less he had been in communication with the waring power and was reasonably assured that a treaty of peace could be concluded 1 Failure to conclude a treaty of jeace would have signified in a measure lack of confidence in this government, but the intercession of President Roosevelt with the power, the result of which has been the conclusion of peace, has demonstrated his farsightedness and fit ness to handle a situation so delicate that has won him the admiration of the world. America may well be proud of its president, for Roosevelt has shown the world the power of this country and made his name immortal. In the last final struggle of the peace commissioners it was Roosevelt, the diplomat, that concluded the treaty of peace between Russia and Japan and the peace commissioners bowed to his dictates and the treaty as finally agreed upon was in reality that of Roosevelt and Roosevelt alone. "All political parties unite in honor ing Roosevelt, the man who does things." Porothy Dix say many cute things that are true. She also says some true thinjn that are cute, but wben aha set out to write about "Work" fhe certainly made queer work of it. Lis ten to this from her pen: "The most delightful amusement in the world is working. The best time that any body ran have is to be found in doing good work for good pay. There is no other joy equal to the clean joy of being swallowed up in Mime con genial occupation that keeps the hands busy, the mind alert and active and that fills the hours with absorbing plans and interests. Certainly work ii the great national American sport, and the rea son that Amerk-an men keep on in busi ness long after they have accumulated fortunes is because the fascination and fun of the game is so great that they cannot bring themselves to the point of laying down their hands and dropping out."

Xo harm can come of the opportunity given the Filipinos to air their griev ances before the congressional party at present in Manila, while it may be productive of good in presenting to the men who may deal with the question the other Mile of the controversy. It cannot le denied that the independent party has a following that will be source of more or les trouble to the United States as long as the islands are in charge of an American governor, But it is possible they would be equally troublesome for any other government they did not absolutely control. The native politician has learned some things of importance since the American oceu pation, winch he adds to what knowl edjre be gained from the Spanish, and the combination may not be all that is desired in the way of good govern ment. This appeared in the public hearing in more than one instance, but it was expected and doubtless had little influent on the men who are deeply interested in the welfare of these people Rut it opens a new field of thought for the congressional investigator. Sur rounded by the conditions in which the Filipinos live, he is jHrmitted to observe the effect of a Nigral government on their lives. lie is learning a lesson that will stand him in jjood stead when he is called upon to discuss the question in congress. Jut now the opinion ap pears to be against Filipino independ ent or even a protectorate by the American government. The depth of character required for the control of the people is, in the opinion of many f these congressmen, not apparent in ALL SORTS.
