Twin Earthquakes,

Earthquakes which consist of two
shocks separated by a brief interval of
quiet or of two maxima Of intensity
are known as twin earthquakes. In
Great Britain one in about every TWEEN
ty earthquakes is Il twin, and the stron-
gest shocks experienced In that coun-
try belong to this variety. 1t is be-
lieved that twin earthquakes are due
to impulses arising from two deached
foci, separated in different cases from
four to more than twenty miles, but
lying along the same fault in the
earth's crust.

America and the Peace.

Those who have been so OPP
timistic as to predict that the
success of Japanese arms would
result in dire calamity to the
United States will read with in
terest the following article from
the st. Louis Globe Democrat of
recent date:
In ways which we may not real
ize at present, the United States
will be favorably affected by the
Russo-Japanese peace. Under
the protectorate which Japan is
TO establish over Korea, Japanese
influence in the Hermit kingdom
will be dominant, and japanese
immigration in that direction will
be heavy. An intimation in this
direction has just been thrown
out by Baron Komura, one OF
Japan's representatives at the
peace conference. AS conse.
quence of this diversion, very lit.
tie japanese immigration can
come to the United States for
many years, and that auti-Jap-
anese crusade which has been
started on the Pacific coast will
never go far. The number OF
Japanese residents in the United
States jumped from ID, 900 in 1896
to $4,000 in 1900. AT the begin.
ming of 1904, when the Russian
war began, the number must
have been close to 100000. The
war virtually stopped all japanese
immigration. The mikado's PEG
pie stayed at home to help fgh
their country's battles. Inmi
grafton in this direction is no
likely to be heavy hereafter

Republican County Convention.
The republican county conven-
ton is hereby called to meet in

20, 1905, at IL o'clock a. m. for
the purpose of electing twenty
two delegates to the state con-
vention and to nominate candi-

The Swain Finch Will.

The will of the late Swain
Finch of Arnold which was filed
for probate yesterday is the first
one in the history of the county
that is s .bject to an inheritance
tax. The law provides where an
estate amounts to more than
$40, 900 it shall be subject to an
Inheritance tax. His estate is
appraised at $4,000 of which
$50, 600 is personal property and
the remainder real estate. The
will gives all the personal prop
erty to his widow and half of the
real estate. She is to have the
use of all the real estate during
her life, after which half of it
goes to John Finch of Arnold, a
nephew.

committee had a meeting yester-

The Troubles Of the Czsr.

For realizing sense of the
political distress in which the
ruling power in Russia finds it.
self it is not necessary to give en-
tire credit to the report that the
proposed meeting of zemstvo del
egates in Moscow will be sup
pressed or dispersed by the armed
hand. Neither is it necessary to
believe that at preliminary
meeting, held in secret, it has
been agreed to issue a proclama-
ton declaring the Gar Nicholas
to be deposed and regency es-
tablished in the name of the i'm
FAINT czarevitch with a council of
grand dukes.
There is enough of internal
trouble in Russia that is real,
without imaginative inventions.
Mutiny and assassination are rife
in both army and navy. Poland
is in turmoil. One of the officers
stationed at Lodz was shot by his
own troops and an entire regi-
ment at Tiflis in the CAUCASUS
has revolted and murdered its
officers. The p asants are in
famed, and more than 1000 ar
rests have been made in single
district for agrarian outrages.
In st. Petersburg itself, Trepotf,
the cars newly appointed min
lister of police, has been condem-
ned to death by the anarchists
and openly declares his expectat-
ion of a violent death and before
long. The crew of another battle
ship has mutinied and put to sea
without its officers.
Undoubtedly, as Plenipoten-
tiary Witte said in his remarks
at st. Petersburg for publication,
Russian affairs cannot be undef-
stood by those who do not know
the soul of the Russian people,
1.-The customs, history, mind and
spirit of the people are wholly
different from those OF Western
nations and Russia cannot be
judged by Western standards"
Nevertheless, the car surely has
enough to worry about in these
daysright at home. - Boston Post.

The Commercial Opening.

The Commercial hotel had its

though Mr.. Iszard, the new pro-

fore. 1t was the occasion of the
Old Settlers Picnic and more than
one hundred were there for din
ner. The rush made it late be-
fore all were served, but the pro-
prietor and his cooks were fully
equal to the occasion and the last
one served Jared equal with the

Primary Election Law.

A few people among whom is
the editor of the Sargent Leader
have a mistaken idea of the Prim-
airy Election law passed by the
legislature last winter.
The law referred to is found on
page 325, chapter 90 of the laws
of 1905.
The law expressly provides
that it applies only to counties

churia to japanese exploitation
will furnish an outlet nearer
home for the surplus of the mix
ADDS people.
Japan would not accept the
Philippines as gift, says mem
her of that ccuntry's suite to the
peace conference. Probably
there is some truth in this state
ment. The Philippines are in
Japan's Cvicinity. and most of
their inhabitants have sort of
remote kinship to the Japanese.
But the Philippines can be of
more value to Japan while in
American hands than they could
be if owned by the TOXIC govern
ment. by having the United
States as near neighbor Japan
will be reasonably sure of retain
ing our friendship, which will be
an asset of considerable weight
on her side in any trouble with a
great European power. This. was
seen in the conflict with Russia.
Japan prefers at present to ex-
pand on Asia's mainland rather
than to pick up any more islands.
She can cast an anchor to the
windward better by developing
Korea and helping to build up
Manchuria than she could do by
getting the Philippines, even if
she could obtain those as a gift
from the United States. AL
though one of the japanese suite
says his country has no intention
of establishing Monroe doctrine
over China, it is safe to assume
that Toxic will have voice here
after in the management of affairs
in Pekin.
So far as can be foreseen at
present, there is no chance for
disagreement between japan and
the United States under the new
conditions. 1--WE are almost boy
ish in our enthusiasm and friend
ship for America" exclaimed one
of the japanese party to the peace
gathering. while we are
friendly to China as Orientals,
our greatest friends are America
and England" He mentioned
that the first monument to a for
eigner ever erected in japan was
to the American, Commodore
Perry, and he said he regarded
"America as an ally of Japan
without a treaty." Possibly a
little of this effusiveness may be
due to the welcome which the
Japanese are receiving here, but
it undoubtedly has a basis in
facts. japan has reasons for
gratitude toward the United
States, and has often shown this.
For the next half century or
more she will be busy in strength
ening her position in Korea and
Manchuria, and in guarding
against repetition of the thing
which led to the war with Russia.
She needs United States friend
ship and example in enabling her
to meet the new duties which her
enlarged role will thrust upon
her. The Japano-Russian set
Element will work for the peace
