DEWEY ON JAP WAR
MANILA BAY HERO GETS TALK
ATIVE ON SUBJECT.
The Great Admiral Tells How Long
II Would Take Uncle Sam to Put the
Japanese Navy to the Bad-He Does
Not Look for Any Trouble, but
Would Not Fear Japan.

Washington, Feb. 5.-Admiral Dew
ey is reported to be very indignant at
what he terms the id cowardice" of
certain high official who had "acted
as if he feared Japan" The fighting
hero of Manila bay says that we could
get our navy into eastern waters in
six weeks and that within two weeks
after it's arrival there it could sweep
Japan's navy from the sea. He does
not believe there will be trouble, but
if there is, he would not consider Jap
an foe to fear. He says that Japan
might seize the Philippines and pos
sibly Hawaii, but that our navy is am
ply able to cope with Japan and that
we would quickly retake the island
when we got ready.
On the supposition that there was
really some danger of war, Senator
Perkins recent lecture on the Japan
csc question is being severely criti-
cized for the alleged warlike talk in
it. The Washington Herald said this
morning:
AT the very moment when the ad-
ministration and the California dele
cation were in agreement, when self.
restraint and preservation of good hui
NOR were necessary to insure a con-
tinuance of harmonious relations, Sen
ator Perkins, leader of the delegation,
delivered a semi-public address in
which he predicted that war was inc
vitable between Japan and the United
States. Friends of Senator Perkins
are chagrined and Inundated over this
unexpected outburst, and cannot un-
derstand the motive that actuated it.
1t was said yesterday that his predic
ton would have come with bad grace
at this time from any member of the
California delegation, but the fact that
Senator Perkins is part Of the treaty
making power of the government &C
centuates the offense"
War Talk Surprises Japan.
TOkio.-The war talk OF the Ameri-
can press has been received here with
great surprise and sincere regret. The
correspondent of the Associated Press
has talked with several leading men.
lHey concur III lne opinion IndJ the
United States is the last country with
which Japan would go to war. Besides,
both nations are unaggressive in their
trade rivalry, which seldom leads to
war unless territorial acquisition is in
tended by either rival. In some quar-
tiers the belief is expressed that the
misrepresentation that Japan is suf
tering on account of the San Francisco
school question is the outcome of i'm
munity shown disaffected war cores
pondents in the late war.
An Exclusion Resolution.
San Francisco.-At the convention
of the Japanese and Korean Exclusion
league Sunday resolutions adopted by
the executive board of the league on
Saturday night demanding the United
States and the state of California main.
tain the right to exclude Japanese from
public schools used by white children
were unanimously adopted, after much
spirited discussion by men prominent
in the movement to exclude Asiatics
from this country.

drag them in.

Raymond Hitchcock, the comedian
who is now on starring tour through
the west. was recently invited as the
guest of honor to the Country club
about five miles outside of San Fran
cisco, after the performance, saws Har.
per's Weekly. AS Mr.. Hitchcock knew
from previous experience that a cab
man would ask fortune to carry him
out to the club, he looked up the adj
dress Of a physician near the theater,
and after the close of the show he
went around and rang the bell. The
doctor opened the door personally. and
Hitchcock said:
Doctor, you're wanted immediately
out near the Country club. Can you
come right away?"
Certainly, sir. just step inside a
moment while l phone for my auto.
Well be there In jiffy."
1t was good five miles to the Coun-

of suburban homes.

interesting missionary meeting she
had ever attended.
Pleasure and pain are oftentlmes
near neighbors, and pain was felt
| on this occasion when Mrs. King
read the appeal made to the auxil-
| liary by the branch officers. It
stated that the work Of the society
was growing very fast; and urgent
appeals for more workers were con-
stantly coming. They had sent out
five more missionaries, and were
S13, 500 in arrears. This amount
must be raised by Oct. 1st. Special
gifts from members and friends are
earnestly solicited. An earnest de-
sire to help filled every heart, but
some did not see their way clear to
do so. One sister though resolved
that she would do extra work, and
earn SIS to give.
AS an instance of the burdens the
missionaries are bearing. we will
cite Miss Lohrenz Of Kentucky, who
has charge of the school where Bible
women are trained, which is all one
woman should do. But she has also
the care of "a day schools and "a
Bible women and their districts. A
helper must be sent.
A medical missionary is needed at
Tsi Chico, where there are over five
million people, and not doctor with

the sufferings Of the natives be.
