representatives of the United States in
accordance with the following instruc-
tons:
ut has long been the established pol
icy of the United States not to use its
armed forces for the collection of or
binary contract debts due to it's citi-
zens by other governments. We have
not considered the use of force for
such purpose consistent with that re-
spect for the Independent sovereignty
of other members of the family of ma
tons which is the most important
principle of international law and the
chief protection of weak nations against
the oppression of the strong. 1t seems
to us that the practice is injurious in
its general effect upon the relations of
nations and upon the welfare of weak
and disordered states, whose develop
ment ought to be encouraged in the
interests of civilization, that it offers
frequent temptation to bullying and
oppression and to unnecessary and I'M
justifiable warfare. We regret that
other powers, whose opinions and

at times taken different view and
have permitted themselves, though we
believe with reluctance, to collect such
debts by force. 1t is doubtless true
that the nonpayment of public debts
may be accompanied by such circum-
stances of fraud and wrongdoing or
violation of treaties as to justify the
use of foYce. This government would
be glad to see an international consid-

Justice to Immigrants.

JUSTICE 70 Immigrants.
Not only must we treat all nations
fairly, but we must treat with justice
and good will all immigrants who come
here under the law. Whether they are
Catholic or Protestant, Jew or gentle,
whether they come from England or
Germany, Russia, Japan or Italy, mat
tiers nothing. All we have a right to
question is the mans conduct. If he
is honest and upright in his dealings
with his neighbor and with the state,
then he is entitled to respect and good
treatment Especially do we need to
remember our duty to the stranger
within our gates. 1t is the sure mark
of low civilization, low morality, to
abuse or discriminate against or in
any way humiliate such stranger who
has come here lawfully and who is
conducting himself properly. To re-
member this is incumbent on every
American citizen, and it is of course
ment official. whether of the nation or
of the several states.
am prompted to say this by the at
titude of hostility here and there as
sumed toward the Japanese in this
country. This hostility is sporadic and
is limited to a very few places. Never
theless it is most discreditable to us as
people, and it may be fraught with
| the gravest consequences to the nation.
The friendship between the United
States and Japan has been continuous

A Good Witness.

Gov. Guild, of Massachusetts,, had 4
visit from a crank with a message
from God" His experience reminded
a Boston lawyer of an incident in Fall
River years ago, when a clergyman
named Alley was on trial for the MUIR
der Of parishioner. "He was defend
ed successfully" said the lawyer, "by
the late jeremiah Mason, considered by
all of us to have been the greatest
American pleader who ever faced a
jury. Mr.. Mason had finished his ex-
animation and was to make his plea in
the morning. He was about to retire,
when a crank was ushered in. T have
a message from the Angel Gabriel de-
claring that Brother Alley is not guilty
OF this awful crime, and'-hut he got
no further. Mason beamed upon him
and said: My dear sir, this is most
timely. Go at once to Gabriel and
have a. subpoena served upon him d.
recting his appearance in court in the
morning The crank departed in q

1.-THE Coda Of Piu. X"

The commission appointed three
years ago by Plus x for the rearrange-
ment and codiftcation of Canon Law
is making satisfactory progress. Their
work is now more than half COM
pleted. They have had to study all
the laws made for the Church during
the last nineteen centuries, to reject
most of them as obsolete, to modify
others as out Of harmony with tho
needs and spirit of the time. and
to Introduce others wholly new. Very
likely the new Code will be known
as the Code of Plus x. Among the
many important changes to be intro
duced into Church legislation will be
some affecting the sacrament Of mar
riage. Thus, it is said, that III the fu-
ture the forbidden degrees Of consan-
guinity will be limited to second in
stead of third cousins as is the case
at present. The Holy Father takes a
direct and personal interest in the la
bors of his commission, and constant
ly urges the cardinals engaged in it to
push their labors as quickly as pos
sible.

Would bravely dare the grave to bring
to you the pearl of peace.
So don't forget the old folks, boys,
they've not forgotten you;
Though years have passed since you
We're home, the old hearts still
are true;
And write to them now and then to
bring the light into their eyes,
and bluer CLEAN the skies.

Nationality.

Nationality.
A nations voice, a nations voice
1t is solemn thing!
1t bids tho bondage-sick rejoice
'Tis stronger than king.
'Tis like the light of many stars,
The sound of many waves;
Which brightly look through prison
bars;
And sweetly sound in caves.
Yet is it noblest, goddliest known,
When righteous triumph swells its
tone.
A nations flag, a nations flag
If wickedly unrolled,
May foes in adverse battle drag
It's every fold from fold.
But in the cause Of liberty,
Guard it till Death or Victory
Look you, you guard it we'll!
No saint or king has tomb so proud
AS he whose flag becomes his sfroud.
A nations right, d nations right
God gave it, and gave, too,
A nations sword, IL nations might,
Danger to guard 1t through. w.
Ills freedom from foreign yoke,
Ills just and equal laws,
Which deal unto the humblest folk,
AS in a noble cause.
On nations fixed in right and truth
God would bestow eternal youth.
May 1reland's voice he ever heard
Amid the worlds applause!
And never be her Flagstaff stirred,
But in an honest cause!
May Freedom be her very breath,
Be Justice ever dear;
And never an ennobled death
May son of Ireland fear!
So the Lord God will ever smile,
With gaudian grace, upon our isle.

Character Building.

What woman is not apt at times to
despise the routine Of life as ignoble
drudgery when it has to do with the
kitchen range, the darning basket, the
typewriter, or the counter or desk at
which she works for the best part of
the day?
Frequently enough we do not realize
that life is not lived in the future, but
in each day and hour as it comes
along. The common things of life
that is, the ordinary events Of a day
must be placed in the edifice OF our
character as we'll as the great ones.
It is a little bit difficult to believe
that opportunity lies just at hand, and
that family life and business life are
filled with occasions for thought, ac-
ton, aspiration, sacrifice, service, that
slowly but surely weave their way into
the fabric Of our lives.
None of us can live pro tem-for the
time-although we would often wish to
feel that there were stagnant periods
Of existence when we could lose the
responsibility for our action and
thoughts.
Everything is knitted in; the bad
tempered mood, the hurried attempt at
something which should be deliberate.
the untidy dress, the neglected home,
the fit or despondency, or envious
thousht-the Sc are the things that spoil
the pattern of our individuality.

Don't Forget the Old Folks.

Nay, don't forget the old folks, boys,
they've not forgotten you;
Though years have passed since you
were home, the old hearts still
are true,
And not an evening passes by they
haven't the desire
To see your faces once again and hear
your footsteps higher.
You're young and buoyant. and for you
Hope beckons with her hands,
And life spreads out a waveless sea
that laps but tropic strands;
The world 10 all before your face. but
let your memories turn
To where fond hearts still cherish you
and loving bosoms yearn.
No matter what your duties are, nor
what your place in life.
There's never been a time they'd not
assume your load OF strife:

MUCH ORE
IN SIGHT
SWORN STATEMENT OF MANAGER
OF STRONG MINE TO STATE
GEoLoGIsT TO BE FILED.
1t Will Declare That Ninety Thousand
Tons of Good Copper Blocked Out
in Strong Mine-New Ore Bodies
Discovered During Past Month and
Outlook Very Bright.

DR.. and Mrs. l. R. Swigart arrived
at noon today from Leslie, accompa-
MED by George H. Chapman and Miss
Foley. DR.. and Mrs. Swigart will re
main until after the annual meeting
of the Strong Copper Mining company
on Wednesday, January 2, at 10
o'clock, when new trustees will be
elected and the annual reports of the
present board and its officers will be
presented and referred. The reports
will give in detail the work of the
company for the past year and the
outlook for the future, with the pres
ent status of the company's affairs.
One feature Of the reports will be the
sworn statement of the president and
manager of the company to the state
geologist, for filing in his office at
Cheyenne. This will include the esti-
mate of DR.. Swigart and others that
there are now in sight in the mines
10000 tons Of good copper ore.
TWO New Ore Bodies.
Miners are today working in the
south drift of the third level, cutting
the east and west vein of copper. The
drift is now forty-five feet long and
the miners have not reached the edge
of the mass of good ore. Two hundred
feet north of the shaft on the 25-foot
level, a c~ross-cut to the west has been
driven fourteen feet into the vein, the
extent having not yet been disclosed.
The new ore bodies parallel the veins
heretofore noted. DR.. Swigart re-
marked this afternoon, in telling of
the work mentioned, that there is now
six to ten times more ore in sight than
the miners knew of last July, and the
extent of the bodies has not been de-
termined in any direction.
VIII Concentrate the Ore.
A concentrating plant will be erect
ed as early in the spring as the ma
terial can be gotten on the ground.
This will have a capacity of not less
than fifty tons daily, and will concen-
trate the vein matter five to one and
eight to one The concentrate will be
then shipped to a smelter and sold.
Miners are at work on the new drift
to the south at the third level, a new
set of holes having been completed
just before DR.. Swigart left for the
city. There is talk of copper every
where in that section, the Strong be-
ing the center of interest.
