TO v|ND|CATE
THE ACTION OF
THE JAPANESE

Washington. Aug 6.-The far eastern
mails just arrived contain pamphlet is
sued from the Japanese residency gener-
forms in Korea" designed TO vindicate the
work OF the Japanese In the hermit king
dom under the authority conferred by the
Japan-Korea agreement OF 1904, whereby
Japan was constituted adviser 10 Korea.
The document treats of the financial
difficulties that confronted Marquis Ito
at the outset, owing to the inadequacy Of
the Korean exchequer TO bear the cost of
reform. He succeeded In raising a loan
from the japan Industrial bank OF 10000
60 yen, C5.000000) which was distributed
in the reconstruction OF roads, In build
ing waterworks. establishing an educa-
ttonaI system, the creation OF banks and
erection of hospitals.
OF the remarkable attempt at purifca-
ton of the Imperial court the pamphlet
after painting a striking picture OF the
corruption and the chicanery and sloth
that existed describes the reform meas
ures adopted and says: I'm court circles
there were no doubt some who at first
felt alarm at the radical turn OF affairs
but the sterling sincerity of the resident
generals solitude becoming gradually
better known the force OF resentment has
since sackened until no voice Is now
heard in active opposition" The way In
which justice had been administered In
Korea, IL is stated, is too revolving 10 be
told I'm detail.
1t is charged that the country has not
yet attained that stage when the execu-
tive and judicial branches are independ-
ent so that the administration of justice
is regarded as privilege to be farmed
out: bribery is general; innocent people
are convicted, their property confscated
while the guilty go free. All this says the
pamphlet, is being reformed by the Jap
anese The work of reforming the cur
rency system has also progressed.
In conclusion. the pamphlet says the
Japanese have provided the Koreans with
a code of laws. safeguarding the trans
fer of real estate, formerly without any
protection. regulating the development OF
native mines providing for the protection
of immigrants and encouraging the de-
yelopment of productive industries.

NEWFOUNDLAND DOG
WAS FOUND RABID

The. big black Newfoundland dog which
was captured on Market square Sunday
at noon by Officer James II. Moffitt Of
the Central police station because OF It's
peculiar actions and the fear that the ami
NAL might have rabies, was examined by
Dog officer Dean and the fear justified
The owner OF the dog could not be deter
mined.
An unpleasant feature OF the case is
that those who saw the Newfoundland
running around Sunday say that he bit
one or two other dogs before he was cap
tured
IL this rumor is true IL is probable that
within the next few days more cases OF
rabies may appear among the canine in
habltants OF this city and people, partic-
ularly children, who roam the streets,

M. Sullivan OF Cranston will be the prin-
cipal speakers at the Jefferson club out
ing. the principal event. AS this organiza-
ton really started the Mccarthy boom for
mayor last August. particular significance
attaches TO its outing this year. There
are about 300 members, and they will take
special electrtcs at some point near their
headquarters and ride to Rocky Point
where they will enjoy games and a shore
dinner and then hold their post prandial
exercises. Possibly football will be one
OF their diversitys, and metaphorically.
at least, the antis will be the football
used.

Of p. m. The committee in charge OF the
outing consists of the president. DIR. Ed
ward F. Carroll. DIR. Albert F. Barry.
James Colgan and Charles Carlos.
Mayor Mccarthy was a guest at last
year's meeting field day and announced
there that he would like TO be a candi-
date for mayor. The boom then received
has gathered strength as the days pro-
gressed and resulted in his selection as
the Democratic nominee two months la
