Dcma ads Cause Anxiety.

Mr.. Sato's declaration is taken to be
an official notice to the claimants
that their demands must rest until
after the peace conference. The
questions raised by China and Korea
have caused anxiety both In Europe
and America. II is feared that IL the
claimants are ignored it may have
some dire effect on the open door"

conference has concluded its great
work and then, IL they have any
claims they may properly present
them to Japan and Russia.
"The reasons for the demands of
these nations for what may be called
Indirect representation in the confer
ence are obvious By acquiescing in
such an arrangement it would in all
probability render peace protocol
entirely impossible. If not that, 1t
would inevitably retard the work of
the commissions and prolong the con-
ference to an unnecessary length"
China has notified the two warning
powers that she will not submit to or
acquiesce in any peace conditions in
volving her interests unless she is first
consulted. China's contention is that
she has right to be consulted on all
questions involving Manchura and
her other tC1rltory.
Korea demands that IN any peace
treaty provision be made by which
she eventually will be made indepen-
dent of both Japan and Russia.

Dear Slr:-I am q subscriber to

lines leading to different points.
We can talk 10 any point on the

Center, New London and other
points oycr farmers lines, where
we have free exchange. At Bell
flower We have three lines with
good prospect Of six more this
spring. But We can't get to Mont.
gomery City without paying a fee
Of i0c. Now why don't the people
Of the vicinity Of Montgomery go
to work and organize several
different lines running into that
city and put In q switch board.
There IL no use OF paying out
twice ~ much to tho Peoples tcle-
phone magnate as VIC can get for
half the money. The said Peo-
pies Telephone Co. will not give
free exchange with our farmers
lines, so VIC should quit them and
build our own lines. Some may
think that the business men OF
OF your city would not take boxes
on your switch board, but they
will. They need you aud can't do
with out you u they can get you
by telephone. The farmers put In
town systems at vandalia and at
Laddonia. At vandnlia Mr.. Buff

system than Mr.. Jacks has ut

organized from Belliiowcr to

Immediately, and some OF these
people have boxes on Mr.. Jacks
line, but they are going to quit
him and 90 where they can get

One of the pleasantest Christmas
days l ever spent was put in on a
train on the way from Omaha to
Washington Professional work had
kept me from my own fireside, and
my approving conscience was hard
ly sufficient at first to keep me
from little bitterness at having to
spend the day in such unfestive sur
roundings. But subsequent events
were largely compensatory.
"A little Christmas drama was en-
acted on our car, one which was full
of the seasons spirit. The chief
participants were a sporty looking
travelling man and 10-year-old boy
a little chap who was travelling
alone, and whose little story the
good-natured travelling man had
soon learned. The little fellow-a
sensitive but manly youngster-was
on his way to the home OF a rela-
tive in the east, an aunt whom he
never had seen. His father and
mother had just died and he was
left alone and practically destitute.
The travelling man learned that his
little fellow traveller had his ticket
and 81. That was everything, ex-
cept little hand satchel and his
clothes, that he owned in the world
