may be found in the fact that about a
year ago negotiations were actually in
progress between America and Japan
looking to the confirmation of a treaty
for the regulation of immigration.
These negotiations, however, were sus-
pended and finally entirely abandoned
as result of the feeling excited be-

CALL ISSUED BY
FORAKER CROWD
Fight Started for Control of
Republican Party in Cuya-
hoga County, Ohio.

! Cleveland, o., Jan. 10.-A call was
issued today by the Foraker-Dick fac
| ton of the Republican party in this
| Cuyahoga county, for a convention
Saturday afternoon, at which it is stat
ed an executive or controlling commit
tee for the party will be chosen. Earlier
in the day the leaders of the Taft fac
ton filed a request with the board of
elections asking that primary be held
II select sixty-three delegates 10 the
state convention The Foraker Dick
faction leaders allege that the present
county executive committee, composed
of Taft adherents, is without power 10
act, because 1t was chosen for one year
and has served two years without re-
election.
Each Desires Control.
Each faction desires to control the
executive committee, because the CON-
miCtee alone ias power IT, call a pri-
mary election for the selection of del
egates to the state convention.
The sO-called regular committee in
its call filed with the county board of
elections asks for primaries to be held
Feb. II to select delegates to the state
convention. Inc followers or FORAKER,
who hold to the belief that the present
committee is working exclusively in the
Interest of Secretary Taft, and arrang-
ing matters so that the voters will have
TIC choice in the matter, filed a protest
1t will be the duty of the board of cleo
tions to determine which of the two
committees is official and which call is
to be endorsed. The situation was fur
Their complicated tonight by a hurried
convention of still another element,
which chose a committee and a list of
delegates instructed to act in behalf of
President Roosevelt. The claims of this
committee will also have to be taken
into consideration by the board CT cleo
tiOns.
While tomorrow's convention is ex-
pected to be Foraker affair, the Taft
followers have sent out word to their
workers tn be on hand and take a part
in the work. AS a result, the Foraker
followers appealed to the police This
afternoon and asked for protection
against the Taft workers, who they al
lege may force an entrance and at
tempt to manipulate the convention.

HOLIDAY HAS JOB CINCHED
His Appointment as Superintendent
OF WateTworks Now Said
to Be Assured

There seems TO be no doubt but that
Thomas Holiday, former councilman
from the First ward, will be offered the
position of superintendent of water
works to succeed Frank Hines.
Hines, however. is working hard to
retain his job and F. j. Leonard, chair
man of the board of public works, is
also in a receptive attitude, it is said.
The opinion seems to prevail that
neither of these gentlemen can land the
much coveted place and that HOLIDAY
is to be appointed.
HOLIDAY is the manager of the B. c.
Morris Floral company and last Mon
day completed a four-year term in the
council. While he is not conversant
with the details of the water system the
mayor has considerable faith in his
ability to make good.

IDAHO FALLS NOTES.

Idaho Falls. Ida. Jan. 10.-The char
ter for the Elks' lodge, which has been
earnestly desired for several years
past, is on the way, and it is expected
that within the next sixty days Idaho
Falls will add the B. P. o. E. to its
roster of lodges The major portion OF
the members here received the work
in the POcatello lodge when IT was or
gained several years ago.
The Idaho Falls Light & Power COM
pany is busy at its plant on the river
placing new machinery in position and
arranging the details for the further
extension of power. Manager George
Changnon is overseeing the installa-
ton.
The stockholders of the Intermouu-
tain Brick company are anxiously
awaiting the completion of the plant.
There is already on the ground sew
eral thousand dollars worth of ma
chinery. 1t is expected that within a
short space of time the plant viii be
up and turning out brick. The COM
pany has an excellent location and the
proper kind of brick soil The fact that
the brick plant will practically be the
only up-to-date plant in this portion
of the state and able to turn out the
better kinds of building brick natural
ly gives it a great prestige
Idaho Falls and vicinity will be rep
resented in the coming Dry Farming
congress by Judge McCutcheon. The
dry farming idea has received a great
impetus the last few years in this par
ticular locality. Already local parties
have taken up land. and by using the
proper machinery have placed hun
dreds of acres in the proper condition
for farming Alright.

RESPONSIBLE FOR PANIC

Kingston, N Y, Jan. 10.-Before an
assemblage of political associates OF
his home county of Ulster, former Chief
Judge Alton B. Parker. of the court of
appeals, Democratic candidate for the
presidency in 1904, spoke tonight of the
causes of the recent "credit panic, -
and of what he considered the dangers
Of putting "untutored idealism" in
charge of the nations affairs. The oc-
casion was a dinner given by four-score
or more Ulster county Democrats at
which Judge Parker was the guest of
honor. Judge Parker said in part:
1--WE are all members, one of another.
Oregon and Maine are linked together
If only by so humble a bond as the pine
forests and great apple crops. Florida
would be no stranger whether she found
herself seated under the sacred Goldfish
that hangs in the hall on Beacon street.
or sat in a California orange grove.

changeably accept their respective SYM
bolic Roosevelt currency emblems 81
simultaneously issued under the stress
of the great credit panic.
Thanks to Roosevelt.
And here incidentally. we can for
at least one thing thank our present
chief executive. He has bound us in
dissolubly together. He has taught us
10 rely in the last analysis upon each
other and upon ourselves against him
self and against all others like him. He
has shown US that peace, plenty and
prosperity are no guarantees If we
guard not our constitutional rights by
putting in Office constitutional rulers

endure it, has he taught us in practice

What is wrong with our financial

What is at fault with general mercan-

What visible danger threatens our pros

and reacted upon every European

THE answer is TO be found in the
