AMERICAS PROGRESSIVE POLICY.

After the Civil War the nation en-
tered upon an extensive policy of inter-
nal Improvement, subsidizing so long
as necessary transcontinental lines of
railway and permanently continuing
the subsidizing Of rivers and harbors,
so after this later war we appear to be
entering upon an equally progressive
policy Of external improvement. Not

effect that in the relations of two persons
1t Is more true when one is man and the other
woman-"one kisses, the other turns the cheek"

Government by injunction is one Of the most
insidious, harassing and dangerous methods re-
sorted to by the enemies Of workingmen to de.
stroy labor organization and to circumvent the
constitutional right of trial by jury. The whole
system of government by injunction grows from
the distrust Of the ultra capitalists for demo
cratic institutions. The reasons given for the
issuing of injunctions are always misleading and

Washington, Dec. 2S.-Following a
long conference with Senator Warren
of Wyoming regarding the latter's IN
terest in a building leased by the gov
ernment for the postoffice at Cheyenne
Postmaster General Payne has inti-
mated that the case was closed. He
said that before the expiration OF q
previous lease on March !, 1899, the
lessons wanted the rent raised from
$1,400 to $1,000, which Postmaster
General Charles Emory Smith deemed
exorbitant and he caused an investiga-
ton to be made. According to the
records an agent for Senator Warren,
in the senator's absence, then exc
cuted a lease for a building affording
much better quarters for $1,000 per
year for ten years, beginning April 1,
1899. Mr.. Payne said that this would
have saved the government in ten
years $1,000. The postofice probably
will remain in its present quarters un-
til the completion Of a government
building at Cheyenne, which is expect
ed to be ready for occupancy probably
by July next.

London, Dec 2S.-Japan is negotiat-

ship Capital Prat, which are for sale
It is now only a matter OF price. Ne
gotiations with other South American

Great Britain. said to representative

these negotiations:

the precise action taken by Great
Britain at ST. Petersburg, said:
The British government is we'll
aware that Japan will be obliged to
go to war unless Russia modifies the
position she has taken up in her last
note"
At the foreign Office here nothing is

TO MAINTAIN ORDER.
Japan Will Send Fifteen Thousand
Troops to Korea.


Paris, Dec 2S.-It is learned in au-
thoritative quarters that Japan Is
about to send large military force
to Korea for the purpose OF restoring
order and maintaining order at the
disturbed ports. The departure of this
force is imminent. 1t will probably
consist of division of $4,000 men.
Japan has been assured that Russia
will not consider the sending Of troops
to Korea to be an unfriendly act or a
casus Delli 1t is anticipated that the
departure Of the troops will revive the
war rumors. which, however, it is
pointed out in the authoritative quar-
ters, will be unjustified, in view Of
Russia's acquiesccnce
During the recent exchanges Of com
municatens between Russia and
Japan the former fully recognized the
need of the presence Of a strong mill
tary authority in Korea and conceded
that Japan was in the best position to
promptly send troops to the disturbed
points. The sending Of the troops,
nevertheless, is construed as having
an important bearing on the present
negotiations, as it Will be the first
conspicuous evidence OF Japan's actual
exercise Of paramount authority over
Korea.
1t is further said in the same quar-
ters that the preparations for this ex-
petition were the cause OF the recent
great activity at the japanese arsen@..
and dockyards, which, it is asserted,
has been enormously ascribed to
preparations against Russia.
