Dolph De Armet returned from
Butte county Tuesday. He says
he acquired as fine a quarter
section of Butte county soil as
the sun ever shone on and he
figures he is about a thousand
dollars better off as a conse-
quence than when he went there.
The rain which has been fall

entire northwest, extending
west to Montana, south to
Nebraska and Kansas, north to
Canada and east to Duluth,
Minneapolis and Davenport, La.

If by sacrificing your nonessentials you can teach your fellow workers in the church to sacrifice their nonessentials, then truly the church of Jesus Christ will become the mighty agency of gospel power which God foreordained 1t to be.

 Will he say that, or will he say, "If the social leaders of the church can put the card table above the prayer meeting, sure ly may do the same?" What would Paul do if you asked him to go to progress sive euchre party or to dance hall? know You know He would answer, If meat make my brother to offend, will eat no flesh as long as the world standeth." May God teach us In our amusements not to throw spiritual stum- bling blocks in the way of our fellow men.
 Reason for Sacrifice.
 But there Is still another. reason why think Paul refused to eat that meat. When these narrow Christians came to him in protest, I think I can hear Paul say: Well, who would have imagined a lot of men and women could ever take such marrow, bigoted view of so trival an act? Well, the old proverb Is surely right which says, Tt takes all kinds of people to make up world. But I must not be too abrupt and severe with these critics. Perhaps I am just as queer in my ways as they are in theirs Now, if I give up to them fin nonessential per haps by my example I will teach them to yield their wishes to me in an essential, and thus we will be able to live closer to-

The Japanese Exposition

An invitation has been extended bv Japan to the Government and people of the United States to participate in great national exposition to be held al Tokio from April to October l, 1912
 and in which the principal countries o,
 the world are to be invited to take part. This is an occasion of special interest to all the nations of the world. and peculiarly so to us; for it is the first instance in which such a great na- tional exposition has been held by great power dwelling on the Pacific; and all the nations of Europe. and America will, l trust, join in helping to success the first great exposition ever held by a great nation of Asia. The geographical relations of Japan and the United States as the possessOrs of such large portions of the coasts of the Pa cifie, the intimate trade relations al- ready existing between the two coun- tries, the warm friendship which has been maintained between them without a break since the opening of Japan to intercourse with the western nations, and her increasing wealth and produc- tion, which we regard with hearty good will and wish to make the occasion of mutually beneficial commerce, all unite in making it eminently desirable that this invitation should be accepted. I heartily recommend such legislation as will provide in generaus fashion for the representation of this Government and its people in the proposed exposition. Action should be taken now. We are apt to underestimate the time necessary for preparation in such cases. The in- vitation to the French Exposition of 1900 was brought to the attention of the Congress by President Cleveland in December, 1895; and so many are the delays necessary to such proceedings that the period of four years and half which then intervened before the expo sition proved none too long for the proper preparation of the exhibits.

Alaska

I reiterate my recommendations of last year as regards Alaska. Some form of local self government should be pro vided. as simple and inexpensive as pos sible; it is impossible for the Congress to devote the necessary time to all the little details of necessary Alaskan leg islation. Road building and railway building should be encouraged. The Governor of Alaska should be given an ample appropriation wherewith to organize force to preserve the public peace. Whisky selling to the natives should be made felony. The coal land laws should be changed so as to meet the peculiar needs of the Terri tory.
 The courage and enterprise of the citizens of the far Northwest in their projected Alaska Yukon Pacific Exposi- tion, to be held in 1909, should receive liberal encouragement This exposition is not sentimental in its conception, but seeks to exploit the natural resources of Alaska and to promote the commerce, trade, and industry of the Pacific States with their ncighboring States and with our insular possessions and the neigh. boring countries of the Pacific. The exposition asks no loan from the Con gress. but seeks appropriations for Ma tional exhibits and exhibits of the west ern dependencies of the General Gov. ernment. The State of Washington and the city of Seattle have shown the char aeteristic western enterprise fin large donations for the conduct of this ex- position in which other States are lend. ing generous assistance.

Mineral Lands.

In the eastern United States the miB- eral fuels have already passed into the hands of large private owners, and those of the west are rapidly following. It is obvious that these fuels should be conserved and not wasted, and it would be well to protect the people against unjust and cxtortionate prices, so far as that can still be done. What has been accomplished in the great oil fields of the Indian Territory by the action of the Administration, offers striking example of the good results of such a policy. In my judgment the Government should havc the right to keep the fee of the coal, oil, and gas fields in it's own possession and to lease the rights to develop them under proper regulations; or else, if the Congress will not adopt this method tho coal deposits should be sold under limitations to conserve them as public utilities, the right to mine coal being separated from the title to the soil. The regulations should permit coal lands to be worked in sufficient quantity by the several corporations. The present limitations have been absurd, excessive, and serve no useful purpose, and often render it necessary that there should be either fraud or else abandonment of the work of getting out the coal
