THE PAGAN JAP DOESN'T SWEAR.

Is not the fact curious that profanity only to be
found among Christian peoples? The Jap is pagan but
he knows profanity than untutored Indian
Although external evidences would to prove the
trary we are there swear words in the
japanese language the Japs should succeed in the
ent contest therefore it would conclusively proven
profanity is absolute ESSENTIAL of good fighting
But if the fight without swearing it is still much
to be doubted whether their historical be
written without words 1t will be interesting to
how the historical romanticists, busily preparing
their great Russian japanese war novels, will
this really serious handicap. Without liberal sprinkng
of 'Sdeaths" and "dammes' and their blankety-bank
equivalents it is difficult to how the ladylike

TO Say Whether Postoffice May Be
At Named for vardaman.

Washington, Aug. 13,-President
Roosevelt will decide whether the
name Of Gov. James X Vardaman of
Mississippi shall be borne by newly
established postoffice in that state. 1t
was learned today at the postoftice
department tnat the question had
been referred to the president for
settlement. The people of that COM
munity recently charged the postoffice
department with refusing to confer the
name they desired. What President
Roosevelt will do is a matter OF con-
siderable interest, although the town
is of small Importance. Gov. Var
daman in the newspaper OF which he
was editor repeatedly bitterly attack
ed the president, rejecting in harsh
and indelicate terms on his family,
His bitterness was inspired by the
