ALLIANCE

Santiago de Chill, April "A COM
mercial compact, but one with great
political significance, has been con
cluded between Japan and the Chilean
government according to information
that has leaked ont Sere. This com,
pact Is believed to have been the re
suit Of the recent visit of BaroA Fu1ish
ina, an eminent Japanese statist, tc
Chilli. + As yet, the exact letter OF the
compact remains an administration
secret.
Japan and Chill Allied.
Gradually, however, 1t has leaked
out that, in future international ques-
tions where South American interests
are concerned, japan may be expected
to support Chili's. claim to the exer-
else Of dominating voice. In. return
for this pledge, the Chilian government
will undertake to induce the republic
of Ecuador, instead Of selling the Gal
lapagos archipelago to Germany or the
United States, to transfer the islands
to Japan.
They would be used as a naval sta
ito commanding the Pacific entrance
to the bay of Panama and the inter
oceanic Canal.
Sights Washington Government.
Chilians regard the reported deal as
a great diplomatic victory over. the
Washington government, which would
never permit the formal transfer OF
sovereignty over Galapagos to Chilli
For number of years Chilli has held
an option on them, under mortgage tc
secure payment for arms and ammuni
tions sold to Ecuador by the late Pres
ident Montt.
Ends Long Plotting.
For diplomatic reasons, to force the
Americans to show their hand, Chill
upon several occasions encouraged
Ecuador to offer the archipelago tc
Germany. The United States in eacf
case promptly raised objection. It is
not anticipated that in the present in
stance the Washington administration
will interfere.

Mystery In Origin.


lust how the fire became started is
unknown. 1t was discovered by
Night Watchman Trimble at 1925 a.
n. Trimble was on the opposite side
Of the square when he heard the
sound of breaking glass from the di-
rection Of the Valandingham store.
when he arrived there he saw flames
rising, apparently from the floor about
In the middle of the room. No one
can venture guess as to the cause
Of the fire. The Valandingham firm
carried nothing but dry goods. The
building was wired for electric lights
but no trace of a short circuit could
be found.
Chemical Engine Only Defense.
The alarm was quickly given and
the members of the volunteer fire de-
partment, assisted by hundreds of cit
I izens, put forth every possible effort
to prevent a repetition of the fire of
. November 12, when half of the west
side Of the square was wiped out Of
yexistence. Yesterday, however, there
were worse odds against the fire fight
ters than on the former occasion, for
both of Albia's fire engines, which aid
ed greatly the first time, are in the

machine for fighting fire in the entire

NEVER In BETTER
CONDITION SAYS
THE SENATOR.

Senator DeLong who always takes
opportunity to say good word for
Grand Junction wherever he goes, was
interviewed as follows in the Denver
Times of a late edition:
e'Horace I. DeLong, who has been
in tile realty business at Grand juno
tion for the past eighteen years, says
that that entire section of the state
was never in better condition for the
production of gigantic fruit crop.
The entire valley will shave as much
and more water than it can use. We are
so situated he says, that there is
more water than we need, principally
because there is less cultivated land
there than on the eastern slope.
When left Grand Junction ten days
ago, apricots were just beginning to
form buds, while at Palisade. twelve
miles away, they were in bloom. A
strange thing, but subject to natural
laws. is the fact that though Palisade
is only twelve miles away it is fully
two weeks earlier and two weeks later
than the Junction fruit. This is due
to the fact that Palisade is half mile
from the bluffs. which during the day
store up heat and hold it in storage
for night distribution.
