1t is a statistical fact that with
the present ratio of incoming for

with the birth rate of American cit
liens added, the population of the
United States at the next census,

At the outset of the closed year
the prediction was made by your
correspondent that 100000 emf
grants would find homes in this
country in 1905. That statement
was disputed by various authorities.
It has been more than realized.

Why has this avalanche of squalid

shores? The answer is the old one.
They have fled from oppression,
tyranny ana the hopelessness to free
soil. where, whether they under

for them at least a measure of JUS

GLASGOW, Sept. S.--For IL
years the city Of Glasgow has oper-
ated its own street car lines with
success SCATTERING to the asser-
ton that politics must always creep
In and destroy the good results
of municipal enterprise. There is
absolutely no politics in the Glas-
gov system, and that is why the
public control of the street car
service has been made a profitable
business venture. Those in charge
of it are striving day and night to
show a better balance sheet than,
say, the electric light department,
or the gas department, or the water
works department, all of which are
run by the municipality.
During the ii years Glasgow has
managed its street cars, besides
meeting all expenses and carrying
forward adequate amounts to pro
vide against depreciation of the
system, 1t has paid $1,672,000 in
interest on its borrowed capital,
has contributed $1,275,000 to a
sinking fund which will wipe out
all debts in 80 years, has paid
$4,000 In local taxes and has

A ONE-PENNY STREET CAR
TICKET, DESTINATION
PUNCHED.

The backbone of the system is a
2-cent fare. Last year over &C per
cent of the passengers paid 2-cent
fares, over 16 per cent paid 1-cent
fares, over 10 per cent paid Scent
fares, 3 per cent Accent fares, 1
per cent scent fares and / per cent
scent fares and upwards.
When Glasgow began to run its
street car system in 1894 there
were 32 miles of double track in
existence; now the system extends
over 70 miles, and Is miles more
are shortly to be added. Together
with Glasgow and the outlying sub
urbs, the street cars provide transit
facilities for 100000 people. TIC
accommodate this travelling army, the
city has in operation 683 cars, and
100 more are being built. The aver
age number of cars at work over
the system is 462, which means
that in the rush hours the cars fol
low one another at just sufficient
interval to avoid collision danger
while the average Roadway night
and day is under four minutes. In
the crowded districts the cars trav
ell at from four to five miles ar
hour, but when they have a clear
track they can go three times as
fast.
The cars are all double deckers
and can carry "a passengers. There
is no overcrowding, for passengers
are not allowed to stand. The cars
are built of the best material, the
city doing the coach work, and are
kept spotlessly clean. They are
washed with disinfectant every
night, there is a nightly examina
ton for defects. Each car has g

and once year there is a special

WHAT MANNER OF men ARE
THESE JAPANESE WHO WILL
PEACEFULLY COMPETE WITH us?

Half a million Japanese soldiers
and sailors will not return to peace
full pursuits. Triumphant in war,
they will seek to be triumphant
in trade. They will become our
competitors. With a natural curl
osity, we wonder what manner of
men they are.
To the average person of the
west the Japanese are inscrutable.
Differences are those of language,
manner of thought, religion, social
customs and history. No adult
American or European has ever
been able to really master the Jap
anese language. How, then, can
he understand the Japanese mind?
Several have attempted it more
or less successfully. Probably the
most successful of all was Lafcadio
Hearn, a man of great insight and
fineness of feeling, who was born
in Dublin of an Irish father and a
Greek mother, and who spent the
last IA years of his life in Japan,
Hearn loved the Japanese and
studied them passiOnately. His
first books about them were ex-
quisite pieces of word paintings, as
beautiful as anything in literature.
But on the eve of the Russian
war he undertook a more serious
task-to fully introduce to us the
Japanese as they are, so that we
may understand them. This book is
called Japan: An Attempt at APP
probation"

worshiped their family dead. Out
of family legends about the great
departed grew the gods and god
desses of the ancient mythologies.
But the family dead were also re
membered and wOrshiped up to the
time of Christianity.
Religion today in Japan is prac-
tically the same as that of the south
European races at the time of Rom
illus and Remus. AS we find it hard
to understand the ancient Romans,
so it is hard to understand the
modern Japanese. In both cases
the stumbling block is to under
stand their religion.
Japanese religion is centered in
the family worship. Prayer and
offerings of food are made to all
the family ancestors, but more par
! ticularly to those more Immediate
ly deceased. In the living room of
each house are small shrineS, and
in each shrine are small tablets, on
which are printed the names of the
deceased. Their ghosts are sup
posed to haunt the shrines, the
house and the neighborhood They
are piously believed to be sustain
ed by vapor from the offerings OF
food and to be solaced by prayers
/ When the family gods are thus
kept in a good humor, all goes well
with the family.
Other deities are the departed
| great of the village or clan, but the
most popular of all are the imperial
ancestors, to whose heavenly vir
tues Togo ascribed his victories.
1t is an article of faith in Japan
that the miliaO is descended from
/ the sun itself, as well as from a
! long line of gods and goddesses
Hence the Japanese flag portrays
rising sun.
And this religion of ancestor wor.
! ship Is to the Japanese no mere
matter of fancy. 1t is to them real
vital and tremendous and the great
est single influence in their lives
Family worship is never neglected
| imperial worship never overlooked
| To MAINTAIN the former, families are
kept together at whatever sacri
fee; that the luster of the latter
+ be not dimmed a war is fought with
J courage and devotion that has
amazed the world.
Almost every Japanese custom
and mode of thought can be traced
back to this religion. Christianity
has as yet scarcely affected it, and
Fit continues in full vigor, despite al
modern innovations.

A Yellow Dog
To Bark Against You

Do you realize that the science of
advertising and job printing has expan-
ded and developed to a point where it
demands the best thought of some of
the best men in business, literature and
art?
Do you realize that advertisements
cannot be satisfactorily presented to the
public unless dressed in the newest and
best of modern types, and that no
amount of time spent in Juggling old
type faces can change this fact?
Do you realize that the public is too
smart to be fooled, and only the best
will command its attention?
The best work goes out only from
the. best eqipped printing Offices. We
offer you the privilege and it is your
opportunity to secure it at that sort of
an office.
Every time you send out stationery
printed With out-of-date or worn tye
you send out a yellow dog to bark
against you--a long as he barks you
will lose business when he bites YOU
will close your doors
Leading advertisers and business men
can obtain results and take no chances
by advertising in The Crittenden Record
