arrived in this city from The Orient al

come by both local Japanese and
Americans, who crowded every dock
on the waterfront and lined the
streets as the japanese party passed
through in "a string of automobiles.
Tonight and tomorrow the General
is the guest of the city. He is being
feted and dined. This afternoon the
party was taken for trip around the
city in automobiles, visiting various
points of interest. In the evening a
reception was given at the fashion

were present.
Local japanese are wildly enthus-
iastic over the coming of the General.
All the Japanese. stores in the city
were closed yesterday, and there were
many hundreds of Japanese to greet
the General when he arrived on the
Aki Maru. Daylight fireworks were
set off over Elliott Bay, and, as the
party landed, the native cheers (or
"Banzais") were almost incessant A
hundred Japanese girls sang the Ma

Harry Orchard may live to die on
the gallows for his confessed part in
the murder of Steunenberg, but such
is not the belief of all the men in this
community.
This same apprehension offers diff
ficulty from the standpoint of the
prosecution in sercuring a jury. This
has been a man-killing country, and,
under the shadow of strong suspic-
ion that there may be avenging muir
ders by cranks and others, it may
prove difficult to secure twelve men
willing to run the suspected risk,
even in this country of courageous,
self-reliant men, assuming that the
State establishes it's case.

TEMPERANCE SEN
TIMENT STRONG
Mississippi viii Soon Be State With
out Saloons.

JACKSON, Miss, May 1.-The true
significance of the local option cleo
ton in Madison county last Saturday
is beginning to impress itself on the
public mind, with especial reference to
it's bearing on the fight in Washington
county. and similar contests that will
soon be launched in other open saloon
counties.
The prohibitionists won in Madison
county by much larger vote than
they had counted on in summing up
their forces, and in spite of the fact
that the saloonists spent money freely
to influence the result. One report
had it that the saloonists had fund
of $4,000 at their disposal, but it is
doubtful if this amount was used.
The business men Of Canton, almost
WITHOUT a single exception, were solid
ly arrayed against the open saloon,
and it is largely due to their influence
that the county was placed in the pro-
bibition column. It will be nearly
year. however, before all the saloons
at Canton are abolished, as several of
the licenses 20 liquor dealers were
recently renewed for a period OF
twelve months.
Sweeping the State.
The prohibition sentiment is sweep
ing the state and all-signs portent a
complete wiping out of the liquor traf-
fic. Some time since it was announced
that the prohibitionists had planned to
Danish every saloon in Mississippi
within period of five years, and 1t
begins to look like they will accom-
,plish the task in a much shorter per-
iod.
That the next Legislature will have
M the question of statutory prohibi-
ton is certain, and there are reasons
70 believe that. with the constant in
crease of prohibition sentiment, the
measure will pass with but little oppo-
sition. The next step will be consti-
tutional prohibition, and at the same
legislative session the anti-saloonists
will ask that constitutional amend
ment on the subject be submitted to
the voters.

LAFOLLETTE
CHARTER
Talk of Attacking Its Legality in the
Courts.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, May e.
Friends of temperance in Campbell
county have not given up hope of
putting the saloons out of Lafollette,
even if the Governor did veto the La
toilette bill. A suit attacking the con-
stitutionality of Lafollette's charter is
now talked of. The charter was
enacted subject to the approval or dis
approval of the qualified voters within
the boundary. 1t was ratified in an
election. Such a law, it is said, the
Supreme Court has decided to be con-
stitutional.
