Deeds OF ValoR In War Kept In Re-
HOmbRancO..
The military revival of Japan, which
began with the conquest of China,
showed itself in the various ways the
great Industries of the country cele-
brated the heroic incidents and victories
of the war, says Atlantic The toy
makers sent out legions of mechanical
toys representing the flight of Chinese
soldiers, the storming of Port Arthur
and the fight of the japanese flagship
with the enemy's ironclads.
Artists commemorated the nations
triumphs in porcelain, metal work and
lacquer ware. Designers portrayed
them on the dresses of men, women
and children. Tobacco pouches, sleeve
buttons, hairpins, combs and even chop
sticks were covered with representa-
tions that expressed the war spirit.
Bundles of toothpicks in tiny cases
were offered for sale, each toothpick
having engraved upon it, in micro
scopic text, different poem about the
war. fIs
Gallant deeds were dramhtized. The
fatal courage of japanese soldier who
scaled rampant and opened e fortress
gate to his comrades; the heroism of
IA troopers who held their own against
300 infantry; the successful charge of
unarmed coolies upon a Chinese bat
talon were reproduced before thou
sands of spectators. Mr.. Hearn men
tions one incident whose realistic por-
trayal must have thrilled the audience
the death of the bugler, Shirakami
Genjiro.
At the battle of Song-Hwan this Jap
anese bugler was ordered to sound the
charge He had sounded it once when
a bullet passed through his lungs,
throwing him down. His comrades
tried to take the bugle away, seeing
his wound was fatal. He wrested it
from them, lifted it again to his lips,
sounded the charge once more with all
his strength and fell back dead.

JUS'rICUS.

In order to bring the contemplate
methods Of the ex-principal of the
high school more clearly before the
public we give the quotation referred
to by our correspondent as it origin
ally appeared in the ]NDEP EVIDENT
and as quoted by the ex-principal.
Here is the statement as the JNDE-
PENDENT made it:
"The editor Of the INDEPEND. sNT
met Mr.. Davis on the streets
Of Carson the night after the
Press Association had met and adj
journed and asked his assistance, as a
personal friend, to defeat the bill
then pending in the Assembly. This
request was courteously refused by
Mr.. DAVIS on the ground that his
time was 80 occupied with matters
appertaining to the Corbctt and
Fitzsimmons prize fight that he had
no time to devote to it. Nothing
further was said to him on the sub
ject during our stay in Carson. If
Mr.. Davis did anything in the matter
at all, we are not informed
This is the garbled statement as it
appeared in the ex-principal's issue
Of Saturday:
"The editor of the JNDHP EVIDENT
met Mr.. Davis on the streets Of Car
son and asked his assistance to beat
the bill"
We simply ask our readers to look
at the statement as we made it and
at the one the ex-principal imputes
to us and then draw their own con-
illusions Of the despicable methods he
resorts to to bolster up lying cause.
The brand is still on his forehead
and no amount Of wriggling and turn
ing will efface it.

HUNGER AS A MOTIVE.
1t Is One OF the MainsprinEs of Prog
ress I'm Human Affairs.

1t Is One OF the MRfnsprinRB of Prog
ress I'm Human Affairs.
The rowels of natures most powerful
spur, hunger, are continually redden-
ing the TANKS of the primitive commu-
nifty. The apostles scathing arrai5.a-
ment of the Cretans, whose god is their
belly" would literally apply to every
savage tribe and many civilized one.
Hunger is one of the mainsprings of
progress. At it's imperative command
the flint was Clipped into the arrow
head, the dart, the spear. In it's honor
the net was woven, the hoe was made
and the soil broken. To appease it's
cravings the wild bull is broken to the
yoke, the forests are felled, the ditch
is dug through the marsh.
On it's errands the ship is launched on
the perilous deep and the band sent out
upon the warpath. Into it's service
have been impressed the winds of
heaven, the steam wreaths of the cal
dron and the glittering shafts of the
lightning. 1t is the real Aladdin's lamp
of civilization. The ceaseless westward
flow of the human stream and the
march of the "star of empire" have
been at the behest of it's genii. Whether
it be born of barren soil and cruel
sky, or of the pressure of overpopula-
ton, it has played leading part in
molding the destinies Of the nations.
In the fall Of every world empire,
from Asyria to Rome, the conquermg
race has invariably come from the
mountainous or barren Land, or from
sterner sky.
And still to-day the nations of the
bleakest belt of the temperate zone,
where the struggle with soil and eli
mate is severest, the Scotch, the Eng
fish, the Dutch and the North Germans,
are overrunning the whole Of the in
habitable globe, and bid fair to far out
do Alexander by more peaceable and
for more stable means -Monist.

CONTEMPTIBLE METHODS.

EDITOR INDEoENOENT: ! do not
wish to be made party to the diff
erence Of opinion existing between
the INDEpEk osHT and the Argonaut
concerning Senate Bill No. 80, but
simply to do justice in the matter of
fair dealing. The INDEP sNDENr
states that Mr.. Booher asked the as
istance of Mr.. Davis, Of Carson. to-
ward the defeat of the bill and asked
this from Mr.. Davis "as personal
friend" On the day following this
statement Mr.. Snyder qrotes the
matter taken from the INDEPEN o EST
purposely or accidentally forgetting
to insert in the quotation the
words, eos personal friend"
thereby destroying the signif-
canoe of the statement us made
by Mr.. Booher, and laying the re-
quest open to the inference and mis-
construction of having been based
upon cooperation as brother mem
bers of the Nevada Press Association.
The truth is surely sufficient and
the people may Judge of the facts
without any misquotation, purposely
made to throw different light upon
the matter as it actually occurred.

Will Insist on the Law Being Carried
Out:

In an interview with Joseph E
Jones, father Of the late United States
District Attorney. yesterday, he To-
formed the journal that anything
published in the Carson News or Ap.
peal ss coming from him regarding
his course in the prosecution of young
Guinan or the admission of the de-
PENDANT to bail was absolutely untrue
that he had seen no one and had not
expressed himself. He further as
serted that he believed tnat it was a
murder most foul and that his boy
was simply assassinated without Civ
ing him an opportunity to escape or
defend himself and that he, as his
father, will insist on the law being
carried ont to the letter.
In regard to the announcement by
the Appeal and News that DR. Guinan
has been rendered the aid of promi.
nent attorneys aud others in behalf
of his son, Mr.. Jones gays he has also
received no less than three letters
from the ablest prosecutors on the
coast, rendering their services on the
side of the prosecution. Mr.. Jones ia
broken hearted, but not vindictive,
yet he says the law must be carried
out in this case and if it appears that
there were others connected with the
affair even indirectly they will be
prosecuted also.
Charles Jones may have had his
faults, but he has suffered through
them and there is no apparent reason
why the woman in the case should
be held up as a picture OF injured
innocence nor the slayer Of Jones as
a martyr. 1t is simply astonishing
that Prof. Howe, the principal of the
school at Carson, should have allowed
himself or his pupils to be made the
subject of public criticism in this af
fair. If they cared to express their
sympathy for the murderer, they
should have done SO without public
ity. The action of Mr.. Howe is GER
tainly poor example to set forth to
the youth Of the country, - Reno

ED. The INDEPENDENT
| have, for some months past care
fully read your paper, hoping to
find some words of protest against
the further enroachment, in the
residence portions of the city, OF the
so.called Japanese "lodging houses"
Everyone, at all familiar with the
system under which these wretched
semi baguios are conducted, will
recognize the danger to our young
people in the rapid growth of this
evil. On some OF the principal resi-
dence streets where these places are
located, the passerby can see at any
hour OF the day, Japauese men,
women and children, lettering in the
yardF, or the porches Of these hotels
stark naked, without even breech
clout for dscency's sake. Surely the
authorities have the power If they
have the will TO abste the nuisance
eomplaiued of If there are no laws
that can reach the offenders, surely
the Minister OF Interior can, by re-
fusiug TO license these dens OF in
fanny, restrict them to certain quart
or where that class can be reached
by some stringent "act to mitigate"
the lack OF proper clothing. | am
not subscriber to The Friend, but
l am sure that Rev. S. e. Bishop,
who lately SO valiautly attacked the
awful immortality that results from
the indecent exposure OF nude
statuary in public places, will speak
in no uncert ain tones against the
greater evil here outlined. Every

ested in this subject, unless he
