china's Neutrality Violated.
Toxic, BY Cable, noon-Late reports
from Newchwang indicate that General
Mitchento's Cossacks in their recent
raiding southwest Of Lao Yang delib-
erately invaded neutral territory and
broke the limits Of the war zone. The
reported Russian note to the powers
calling attention to China's nca-en-
forcement of neutrality is regarded
here in some quarters as absurd. It
is felt that China's weakness and con.
slant failure to enforce neutrality
must release Japan from obligation to
observe restrictions which Russia
openly ignores.
While the extension of belligerent
territory is to be regretted, it Is felt
that Japan must take steps to protect
herself against the repetition Of raid
ing expeditions whose success depends
on the violation Of neutral territory.

AN AGE OF GRAFT.

There seems to have been some
thing questionable in the matter of the
proposed sale of asphalt lands to the
city, vetoed by the mayor and sus-
tanned, after some acrimonious debate,
by the council. From what Truth can
learn, it appears there was an attempt
to do bit of grating. A well known
pot-house politician, whose name is a
synonym for ways that are dark, made
statements that were questionable, to
say the least. Truth is informed that
he had no connection with the asphalt
lands offered for SALE but that he was
playing both ends against the mid
de al the time. He offered to use in
| fluence with one side, providing he
could get "bit" out of it, and when
| turned down, went to the other fell
lows with a similar proposition.
That such a creature is tolerated by
certain members of the council is evil
| dence that he is hand-in-glove with
those who associate with him. That
| he seems to thrive is proof sufficient
| that there must occasionally be some
thing doing in the line of questionable
transactions. And it is high time that
him. Because, whether the council
knows it or not, his intimate connec-
ton with certain members is causing a
great deal of adverse comment.
Whether the council is informed on
the subject or not, Truth is not pre-
pared to say, but as matter of fact
the city fathers are not looked upon
with any degree of esteem by the pub
lie in general, but on the contrary are,
with a very few exceptions, mentioned
in tones designed to express absolute
contempt. The council will do well if
it starts in to eradicate the influence
of professional grafters with certain Of
it's members, for if something is not
done soon there is going to be pub
lie scandal that will smell to heaven.
AS has been mentioned in these col
umns frequently, this seems to be an
age of graft. Retribution, however, is
overtalIing the grafters east and west
Those in high stations have not been
spared, but have been indicted, tried
and jailed, together with those of
lesser degree. 1t is more than likely
even very probable, that an investiga
ton, such as is proposed by the legis
llature in the st. Louis exposition mat
ter, will be but starter. That soon
afterwards a special grand jury will
be called and that there will be gen
eral house cleaning. 1t is time. There
are matters here that deserve to be
aired, and Truth, in common with thu
suffering taxpayers, hopes it will cons
soon. 1t hopes that the men selected
for the work will be fearless, and tina
they will probe every act and deed tt
the bottom, indicating the innocen
and indicting the guilty.

OF wood or iron. Also that all bay
windows projecting over the lot line

cause trouble. 1t might have been
avoided by refusing permission at the
time same was asked. AS it is there
will no doubt be no end of dissension
and litigation.

ONE JETTY PLAN A FAILURE.
[RY TELEGRAPH TO THE rRIRuNE1


Galveston, Tex. March 17.-After expending $685.
600 to secure deep water channel at Arkansas Pass
the government has declared the jetty plan a
failure. The government three years ago decided
to give the Haupt curved jetty practical test on
the engineers guarantee to secure ffteen-foot
channel by building jetty 1900 feet long at a
cost of $4,000. and one twenty feet deep by ex-
pending $2S5 OOO and extending the ietty The jetty
is almost completed to the twenty-foot contour
with only 1212-foot channel, while a year ago it
was fourteen feet
The system of building this north lefty prevents
the construction of parallel south 1etty, and the
government engineers say it has practically ruined
all hope of deep water at that port.
