dungeon,

A few weeks ago J, A. Wsyland re-
linquished his interest in the Coming
Nation to the Ruskin cooperative col
ony in Tennessee, and quit both the
colony and the paper. He is now pre-
pairing to publish q paper in Kansas
City.
The Denver Road prints an extract
of a letter from Wsylsnd in which the
latter says: "You will be surprised to
know that next week will be my last
week with the Coming Nation and
Ruskin. Misplaced confidence. l
leave all to them. 1t cost me $4,000
to learn a lesson, but I've learned it. !"
Upon this the Road comments:
Another thing Brother Wsyland should
have learned and that 10 this He has done
more in his brief career "a editor of the Com.
ing Nation, to ruin Popullst publishers than
any man that ever embarked in the business.
He has educated the people to believe Popu-
list editor ought to live ON WiDd and go naked.
This he has done by making people think 50
cents per year Is enough for publishers to
charge for a weekly paper. SO far as his loss
Of $4,000 is concerned, we waste no tears, for
he is able to stand 1t.

subscription to his paper. They have
been bounded and prosecuted through
all the courts and by all the minions
of the plutOCrsCy for more than a year
and now lsnguish in jail because they
would not betrsy labor. The fight
they made was for the whole body of
American producers and Wsge-workers
and some day they will get the benefit
Of it. BY subscribing for the Railway
Times, which is edited In jail by
Eugene V. Debs, president, Sylvester
Keliher, secretary, and the other Off

insisted that the courts were so primitive
and punishments SO barbarous iu both
China and Japan that consular courts
should protect foreigners residing in these
countries Japan has recently negotiated
q new set OF treaties with the United
Stasas Great Britain and other countries
In which her modern court procedure Is
recognized and consular courts are aban-
doned. In conformity with this new
system Japan now terminates China
consular courts in Japan although
Japan's consular courts in China are to
be continued.
This presents the singular spectacle of
China conceding the advance of Japan
into modern methods, while at the same
time conceding that she is still IN the be-
nighted condition requiring extra terri
torial jurisdiction to protect foreigners in
China. Probably the most important
concession is Japan's occupation of Port
Arthur and Wei-Hai- Wei for a term of
years. This will assure q continuance of
the peace for many wears.

WHAT JAPAN DEMANDS OF CHINA.
Terms Of the Peace Treaty That l. Now
Being Negotiated.


WASHINGTON, March I3-The terms of
peace about to be concluded between
China and Japan are now known with
little short OF exactness. As understood
in high official circles they are as follows:
The new treaty will grant Japan extra
territorial jurisdiction over China, but the
latter country will surrender the extra
territorial jurisdiction she formerly held
in Japan. There will be no extension OF
japanese territory on the main line Of
Asia, but the island of Formosa, a Chi
nese possession lying of the coast, will
be permanently ceded to Japan.
The Japanese will be granted the right
to continue the occupation OF Port Arthur
and Wei-Hai Wei, the two great naval
stations leading TO the Gulf Of Pechili, for
q number of years; the claims Of China
that COrea is dependency Of hers shall
be forever relinluished, and Corea shall
henceforth be independent; the cash in
demnity to be paid by China will not cx.
coed ESQ 00. 90 in gold. The purpose not
TO extend Japanese territory on the main
Land, but to condne it to the outlying
island OF Formosa, assures the conclusion
OF peace without European intervention.
The maintenance Of Japan's extra terri
torial jurisdiction leaves China rs the only
oriental country submitting l. Ais juris.

SAGINAW, March I2.-About fifty dele.
gates are attending the A. p. A. state con.
vention, but all are maintaining secrecy
regarding the objects and possibilities OF
the convention. The sessions are strictly
secret and press committee appointed
to give out such Information as is thought
proper.
One Of the prominent delegates said
that since the organization had shown
such strength at the last elections, the
convention would probably decide to
merge it into a political body, boldly de-
claring its principles and dropping all its
secret features, thus making its anti
Catholic fight an open one.
