The OrientaIs Are After Rights on
the Nicaragua Canal.
TOXIC, Japan, May 12-The recent
achievements of Japan have led her
to turn her attention to securing
treaty with Nicaragua by which she
would secure marked privileges in the
Nicaragua canal. The subject has
been under consideration at Washing
ton between Minister Guzman,- repre-
senting Nicaragua, and the representa-
tives of Japan. At one time the basis
Of a treaty seemed to have been
reached. DR.. Guzman feared, how
ever, that the United States might have
cause to object to seeing privileges ac-
corded to Japan. This objection was
met by the representative of Japan by
a proposition that Japan should re-
eeive the same privileges as other
countries with which Nicaragua has
treaties, except the United States, it
being expressly recognized that the
United States is entitled to superior
advantages, because of proximity to
Nicaragua. The negotiations stopped
on this point, and the treaty has not
as yet been concluded, nor is it being
no doubt exists among officials that
satisfactory treaty will be made, CIV
ing Japan privileges in the canal COM
mepsurate with her growing power as
a military and commercial nation.
WASHINGTON,' May 12-The Toxic
cable stating that Japan has her eye
on the Nicaraguan canal presents a
new and important phase of the canal
question, in which the United States
has taken such a vital interest Thus
far. the United States regarded Great
Britain as the only dangerous COM
petitor for the use or control of the
canal. Now Japan's interest in the
canal presents a new factor Her VIC.
tories over China promise to make her
prominent power in the Pacific BY
gaining privileges in the use of the
Nicaraguan canal, Japan will also Sc
cure direct access to the Atlantic
without the long trip around '"The
Horn" The Importance of a quick
route to the Atlantic from Japan is
said to be very great from a naval
and commercial standpoint The de-
tails of the recent negotiations at
Washington cannot be learned as the
treaty-making is guarded with much
care until the instrument is conclud-
ed. Minister Kurino will leave for
Mexico at an early day to present
his credentials as minister to that
country, to which he is accredited as
we'll as the United States.

There have been more or less severe
frosts in almost all parts of the North
west. This was. to have been expected,
the unnaturally high temperatures of
last week promising reaction to
the other extreme. No serious dam
age, however, is reported. A good
deal of garden Stuff has been nipped,
and some killed, but the crops in this
section have suffered no injury. More
disastrous effects may be expected
further to the South and East, where
the cold snap is pretty certain to
play havoc with the fruit trees.

BISMARCK, N. D., May 12.-The
North Dakota department of agrieul-
ture has published and circulated
throughout the farming districts an
..emergency poster regarding the
Russian thistle. 1t states that the
plant is fast spreading over North
Dakota, and Is a most formidable
enemy to cereal growth. The circular
gives full descriptions of the plant and
how to eradicate it. 1t says: When
ever and wherever a Russian thistle
is found 1t should be destroyed. If It

scarcely be ripe, and pulling it up will
be enough. From that date on till Mo-
vember all Russian thistles should
first be pulled up and afterwards
burned. In most cases these will not
burn alone, until somewhat dry. But
they must be destroyed by fire. AS be-
fore stated, one plant may have
thousands of seeds to grow next season
unless destroyed in the fall. A strong
appeal is made to all section foremen
on railroads and farmers to see that
no Russian thistle plants are left uu-
burned this fall, and none allowed t0
go to seed next year, nor after that.

ONE VACANT SEAT
In the United Stnte,s Senate VIII
Delaware Have.

WASHINGTON. May 12.-The prob
ability that Gov. Watson will appoint
a man as senator from Delaware to
succeed Senator Higgins is considered
sufficiently strong about the senate to
cause a general speculation as to what
would be the chances of his being seat
ed. The history of the senate, does
not furnish a parallel case to that
which. Mould be- presented in ease of
such action by thd Delaware governor,
but 1t Is like the case of two years ago
presented from the states Of Wyoming,
Montana and Washington, more than
any others. 1t would be similar to
those in SO far as it would involve the
governors rights to appoint when the
legislature has failed to elect, but it
would develop other questions, i'm
portant among which would be the
right of the governor to act, in the
capacity of a state senator while filling
the executive office. The cases of the
Northwestern states also differ from
that which would be presented from
Delaware in that there is no counter
claimant in any Of them.

general was not disposed to favor the

that there was any real danger, but
he was soon convinced that unless a
show of arms was made the strikers,
who are mainly ignorant Finlanders,
Poles and Hungarians, would become
demonstrative and interfere more
seriously than they yet have. He
thereupon decided that before making
any move he would consult further
