Mrs. Blanche L. Fishel died at her
home in Olathe at $50 o'clock p. M,
Sunday, November Is, 1906, aged 40
years and one month. Mrs Fishel was
the wife of C. w. Fishel, manager of
the Olathe Hardware company and few
deaths which have occurred have been a
sadder bereavement for our community
to bear. The cause of her death was
typhoid fever from which she had been
suffering for period of five weeks.
Besides her husband she leaves three
sons, Earl, Clyde and Orval, and one
daughter, Lucille, to mourn the loss of
a loving wife and mother.
We are in receipt of communication

lived with his father, the blacksmith,
at this place. Tom has been climbing
the ladder of success rapidly since leav-
ing Olathe and is now president and
general manager of the Arizona Sani-
tarium & Touring company. which is

For twenty minutes this morning
Senator DeLong entertained the pupils
of the Grand Junction high school upon
the topic Of The Crying Need of the
Age" He outlined the topic from the
first saying that the most important
need was teachers and more of them;
we did not need keepers of school mere
ly, but educators in broader sense
soul winners. They must not be lectur-
ers and sermonizers or visitors. We
further need more laborers. and they
must not be time-servers or job hunters;
just honest everyday workers. He then
particularized by saying that the rail-
roads want thousands of men on their
passenger trains and on their freight
trains; that the wages are going up
rapidly because of the great increase
in the business and the supply Of in
telligent men and women is limited: the
railroads do not want men Of late hours
nor men who drink and gamble and
dissipate and in whose hands life and
property are in constant danger.
The banks need 25, 600 young men of
clean minds, of clear heads and habits
and they can not find them in sufficient
numbers. They find plenty of egotisti-
cal dudes who dance, play cards, smoke
cigarettes, flirt with the girls, loaf in
the saloons and play the fool generally.
The world is filled with opportunities

Delta enjoyed a splendid Thanksgiving
day yesterday. Good spirits OF the
people were enlivened by almost per-

Turkey dinner held sway at the noon
hour and it is safe to say the great
American bird met with terrific
slaughter and is much less numerous
than few days ago. Business was
generally suspended about 10 o'clock IN
the forenoon and people divided their
time between home, church and amuse-
ment.

A manuscript of great significance
has just been prepared by Attorney
Jesse S. Reeves on 1.-THE Trojan War
of the Twentieth Century in which
the writer tells Of a great war be-
tween Japan and United States in
the year 1911. The paper is of par
ticular value on account of the pres
emit strained relation between this
country and Japan, and because of the
standing of the author of the manu-
script. Mr.. Reeves is a close student
of history and diplomacy and is in
touch with the world movements Of
the present day.
The paper is conceived in an oriui-
nal manner. 1t is supposed to be the
manuscript of an old man written in
he year 1858. The old man is an
American diplomat and former secre-
tary of state. He recounts the events
that lead up to the war of 1911 be-
tween the Japs and Americans. He
tells of the election of the Democrat
party in 1908. and their failure to fol-
low the policy of large navy. On
account Of this policy, the Japanese
rank second in naval power in 1910,
while the United States is but fifth,
and in the Pacific Ocean the Japs have
a fleet four times as powerful as that
Of the United States. The antiJapa-
nese feeling in San Francisco be-
comes very strong and at the same
time the preponderous influence of
Japan in China stiles the United
States competition. At Maya Saki a
mob attacks the United States troops
and almost simultaneously four Japs
are Iynched in San Francisco and the
consulate is destroyed. Adding to
the bad feeling is the decision of the
Supreme Court which holds that the
law excluding Japanese the same as
Chinese, which was promoted by the
the California law makers is I'M
California law makers is declared un-
constitutional. Growing out of the
attack on United States troops the
American ambassador in Japan asks
The Richmond palladium. (Richmond, Ind.) 1906-1907, 1906-11-25

for an apology from the Japanese
government. The Japs reiterate by
demanding reparaton for the proper
ty and lives destroyed in San Francis
CO. Great Britain at this juncture Of
fers to mediate, but the United States
declares that this is a matter of hon.
or which cannot be left to arbitration.
The United States also rejects Eng
lands offers on account of the aiIi-
ance existing between the British gov
eminent and the Japs.
The first blow is struck when the
United States battIeship bearing the
American ambassador on his return
from Japan, is blown up at Honolulu
by Japanese spies. War is declared
with the Japs having an advantage of
three to one in naval strength in the
Pacific. Due to superior numbers,
the Japanese soon get the upper hand
in the Pacific, capture the island of
Luzon and take Manila. The Ameri-
can fleet is forced to return to Amer
lea and a treaty follows in which the
United States cedes the Philippines,
Hawaii. Gaum and Samoa to the Japa-
nese for $2oo, 900 900. The United
States devotes her attention then to
the South American Republics, where
by wise reciprocal trade agreements,
this country gains more than she
would by retaining the Pacific posses
sons.
In commenting on his unique paper,
Attorney Reeves says that it was writ
ten in order to show the need Of in
creasing our navy If we are to be
power in the Pacific and the necessity
of hurrying the Panama canal to COM
pIetion. He does not anticipate the
election OF the Democrat party in 1908
but makes that a mere incident in his
story. He calls the conflict second
Trojan war, because it is again the
conflict of the yellow and white race.
The United States takes the place of
Achilles in the war and this coun-
trys navy is the vulnerable heel a.

Surveys were made last summer by
Messrs. R. H. Chapman and B. D..
Stewart, of the U. S. geological survey
for a topographic map of the Nevada
desert region. The Office computations
and the drafting are finished, and the
map is now in the hands of the engrav-
ers. The area represented covers about
5000 square miles, and includes the min
ing camps of Goldfeld and Bullfrog and
the territory that lies between them
Kawich, Gold Crater, Quartz Mountain,
the Old Horn Silver mine, Cane Springs
and Forty-mile canyon. The map shows
also the location of Chloride Cliff and
Keane Wonder mines, the district about
Lees camp, the Grapevine range and
the Oak Springs region and a portion
of Death valley. The northwest corner
of the area is near Lone mountain, the
northeast corner is neal the old town
of Reveille, the southeast corner is
the Johnny mine, and the southwest
r is at the northern end Of the
Panamint valley.
One feature of the map that will be
hailed with joy by all travellers in this
desert region is the location of springs
and water holes, with roads and trails
that connect them. The map will be
printed on a scale of approximately l
inch to 4 miles, with a contour interval
of 100 feet. An endeavor will be made
to have this map ready for distribution
in the late spring. A report on the
geology of this area will soon follow.

Predicts Great Future.

In an interview with a Gazette re-
porter at Reno, Daniel ~Guggenheim,
president of the American Refining and
Smelling Co., said: Nevada has a
great future, and will, in my opinion,
some day be one of the richest and
greatest states in the union. 1t is a
great producing state, and is now only
in its infancy. The agreement reached
between our interests and the Schwab
interests means a great deal for the
State of Nevada and will result in a
great deal of work being done in the
mines in the rich gold fields of the state.
By the agreement, the rates on rail-
roads will be reduced, and the smelter
charges will be made much smaller.
We have entered into a twenty-five
year contract with Charles M. Schwab,
to handle all his pres at our smelters,
and will work all the large copper
properties at Ely. l think that Nevada
has a very bright future, and that Ely
will be one of the greatest copper
camps in the world"
