stituents of the Sixth district congress
man something of his record at Wash
ington Senator Dolliver was CO.
worker with Congressman Lacey in
the house of representatives for sew
eral years, and few can speak with
more authority than he can. In this
Senator Dolliver places a distinction
upon the Sixth district that the voters
can i'll afford to erase He said Of
Major Lacey:
Few men have made SO distinct
an impression upon the legislation of
the last twenty years
AS chairman Of the committee on
public lands he has written the stat
ntes which have reformed the laws of
the United States relating to the pub
lie domain. while the whole admins

campaign. He is strong man and q
good republican. He is calling the
attention Of the people Of New York
to the great prosperity that has come
to us under beneficial republican rule.
Eight months of the year have gone
and the export exceeded billion; our
imports are large, our labor is employ
ed, and we have every reason to re.
pudiate discomfort. But again this Is
Hearst's perpetual assault nthe cor
poratlons, and his lavish expenditure
of money. Literally car loads OF his
newspapers are distributed through
the state. They are given away to
every working man as he passes out
of his workshop and by thus inflaming
their passions and misrepresenting
conditions to them hopes to win.
Its about as bad a fight in Pennsyl-
vania The democratic nominee repre-.
sents the anti strength. He has gath
cred together all the elements Of dis
cord and discomfort. Philadelphia ID
likely to go strong for him, but Pitts
burg, I believe, will go for the regular
republican ticket. Mayor Weaver was
on the fence for some time, but now
is off, though he has not been sausfac-
torily located. I believe he Is with
the republicans. Secretary Shaw did
much good in that state; he is one Of
the best speech makers for the repub-
lican party in the whole nation. The
democratic fight is for reductions in
state expenditures, etc. The state II
extremely close.
Massachusetts was the only state

tration of the bureau of Indian affairs
has felt the influence of his profound
understanding of the problems with
which it is concerned.
The fact that he has had among
his constituents large number Of
working people engaged in mines and
factories has given him a position of
leadership in the enactment of those
laws which during the last two dec
AIDES have sought to improve the con-
dftions of American labor.
"The new mining laws of the
United States are the product of Ma
jor Lacey's industry and faithful

long honored, that reward, which Is
after all, the only emolument of public
life worth having. We'll done, good

. JAPAN,s uNEAslNEss.

japan is apparently becoming rest
less. Her alacrity in grasping an OPP
portunity to bring from the United
States something that resembled an
apology denotes that the little island
country is not overlooking anything
to keep in the front rank. The atti.
tude of President Roosevelt and his
determination that the Japanese shall
he accorded the same rights that the
most favored nations receive. whether
in California or in some other state,
go a long way toward indicating, how
ever. that there will be an amicable
settlement of the difficulty.
Secretary Roots message to Japan
was we'll received and served to salts
~ the people of that country that
their rights in this country would be
preserved. In ia It, much of the trou-
BILE has arisen. it is believed, from a
misunderstanding. The Japs have
been inclined to take the attitude of
Californians as the attitude of the ma
ton. OF course, it is true that the ma
ton is responsible for the conduct of
the state when it comes to dealing
With foreigners through treaties, and
for that reason it is practically GER
tain that the terms of the treaty will
govern, but had the Japs been able to
fully understand that although a large
state, California is only small
lion of the Union, there probably
would not have been such furore.
While President Roosevelt has
shown his position to be a determine
ton to see that the Japs get a square
deal in this matter, he also shows in
other issues with the Japanese that
the policy of this nation will not be to
shiver in the presence Of the yellow
men of the orient This is made plain
In the dealings relative to the Japan
csc poachers in the northern seal
islands. The Japs first made claim
that the United States authorities
had no right to kill the poachers. The
ambassador admitted that they were
practically burglars, but expressed it
as his opinion that the punishment
was not commensurate with the crime.
Instead Of showing himself in the
least embarrassed in this situation the
President makes the demand that
those poachers who escaped should
have justice melted to them by their
own government. 1t is probable that
this did not have the best effect upon
the Japanese. coming. as it did. just
at the time of the difficulty in the Cali
fornia schools
The inclination of the Japanese to
make every possible demand shows
that their victories have led them to
feel their strength and to give them a
desire to be measured at full length
with the white man. The men who
predicted dire things in case of vic
tory over Russia on the part of the Japs
may yet have something to point to,
for the uneasiness that is now exhibit
ed in the orient seems bound to lead
to something extraordinary.
