A PLEASANT DRIVE
Board Of Public Works on an Inspec-
ton Trim

The usual weekly inspection trip of the
board of public works was taken yesterday
afternoon. Central avenue and Eighth
street, where it is proposed to straighten
out an ugly jog in the street, was inspected
and the property owners will probably be
given an opportunity to say how they want
the street laid out. At present they find
fault with the plans of the city engineer,
not liking the manner in which land is TAX
en- on either corner to widen the roadway.
An inspection was made Of First street
from Olive to Hope. which badly needs
grading; also Grand avenue between Olive
and Bunker Hill, where several Jump
offs" emphasize the need OF an established
and uniform grade. Recommendations on
the above lines will probably be adopted at
the meeting of the board today.

war with China.

A fow years ago the favorite subject
with the makers Of TSophetic flctions was
the dangers to be apprehcndcd from the
immense dormant power of China The
easy victory of the japanese and the up
parent conversion OF China into another
"sick man of the east" have now made
these apprehensons seem absurd. but 1t
is by no means certain that the somber
cloud against which Europe was warned
in the famous picture inspired by En-
peror William is entirely harmless after
all. The vast population of China took
no real part in the war with Japan and
has no incentive for action in support of
the Mantohoo imperial government, but at
some time OF European conflict or disor-
ganization great Asiatio uprising, elcc,
triiled by some CONN. on fanaticism, might
be II fearful menace to the Aryan race.
