sphere of influence to The greater part OF
the Shan Tung peninsula, Japan has
watched her aggression with leslous
eye. Japan needs three years more in
which to get her ships, already laid down,
completed and her war material and
equipment assembled. Japan's navy, it
ia claimed, outclasses that of Germany

the war right to Japan, and, as Russia
found out, that is no easy undertaking.

THE democratic primaries in Missis-

Z. +. Noel for Governor, and this means
that the State will join the phalanx OF
prohibition which seems to be sweeping
over the South. Noeps principal plank
was a probibitory law for the entire
South, so that legislature favorable to
such law is assured. He is also pledged
to more rigid regulations of common

IN Richmond last week Judge Henckel
decided in favor of the Norfolk school
board in the school desk controversy with
the State Board of Education. The Nor

provide furniture for schools with
out reference to subsection No. g..
The court refused TO issue further in
