The Country Should Prepare tO Combat the Natn- ral Aim Ofthe Japanese to Control the Commerce of the Pacific

merce of Asia and of the Pacific ocean. and ne added that it was per- fectly natural for Japan to seek to control the policies of China and to attain supremacy in the Pacific ocean and to lead the yellow race toward a recognized supremacy in the world.
 With regard to the great nations of the white race. Mir. Hobson said: Tt is of course clear to the Japanese statesmen that America is the one great nation standing athwart Of the realization of these ambitions. IL is true that America only asks a fair chance and no favor-simply the open door policy in China-but this policy goes counter to Japanese ambitions"
 The United States. said Mir Hob son. must accept Japan's protestations of friendship. and we should most cor diaIly reciprocate friendly feelings and should realize that if any breach should come between the two coun- tries. il would be our fault. on ac- count of being so defenseless. and not the fault of Japan.
 Pursuing his analysis of the con ditions in the Pacific, Mir HObson de- ttdItu llliA We GdtlIlbt lSIbIt liit fact that Japan has undertaken stu pendOus war preparation, preparations which have doubled the national debt of Japan since the war with Russia was over. IL is estimated that sine has between 300.O00 and 40O, 900 men under arms yet there is no menace from the armies of Siberia or the armies of China or the armies of Europe No. nation since the world began has ever maintained such an army. under such conditions. except as preparation for an early campaign of aggression
 Continuing. MT. Hobson said that nOtwithste nding the fact that five bat tleships of the Russian navy had been added to the Japanese navy, and al though the Russian fleet had vanished from the Pacific ocean. and there was no fleet of any size of any European nation in that ocean and no fleet of any European nation that was avail able to be sent away from Europe in to those regions, yet Japan has launched upon a stupendous program of naval expansion. Some. he said, had imagined that Japan's warlike preparations were intended for China, but he declared no one could conceive how a great new navy would be need ed, whereas there is scarcely a Chi neSe gunboat. The United States, he said. could not ignore the fact that warlike activities have been going on in Japan at feverish rate" since the war with Russia. He said Japan had made great purchases of war material abroad. He pointed particularly to the fact that America had supplied 750.000 rifle barrels. although our own troops have not yet been supplied with new rifles" Neither could the United States ignore the fact, he maintained, that two naval bases had been estab- lished in Formosa and the Pescadores Islands. down near Luzon. and that as soldiers were discharged at Hiroshima they emigrated to Hawaii.

4 CHEERFUL C0NFESS0R
 OF ALLEGED FORGERY
He Had Saved Deputy Mineral Sur veyors the Trouble of Signing Their Names.

Butte. April GA Helena special says: With seeming frankness, Frank Dallas. cO-defendant with J. D. Mcleod in the case now on trial in the federal court charging them with conspiracy to defraud, took the stand this afternoon and cheerfully confess ed that all the signatures to the va rious documents which purported to be signatures of different deputy min eral surveyors. were written by him. self; he had written between 150 and 200 sets of field notes for deputy sur veyOrs while he was chief clerk in the surveyor generals office. and received money for making them. He admit ted many things which the govern ment endeavored to prove in present. ing the case.
 Dallas was the first witness for the defense. Nc opening address was made by the defense. At the conclu- sion of the governments case, how ever. q motion for a directed verdict was made by the defense. one of the principal grounds being that there was no evidence to show that the defend ant was not authorized to sign the names of the various surveyors. This must be shown to prove the overt act of forgery upon which the indictment rests. The motion was overruled

Washington. D. C.. April 6.-Point
 ing out what he declared to be the precarious condition of the national defense of the United States both in the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans. MT. Hobson of Alabama. in the house of representatives today made an earnest plea for two battleships of 25.O00 tons displacement in addition to the two authorized by the naval ap- prOpriation bill. He said that con servative estimate would indicate that for the minimum basis of security and safety in the Pacific ocean the United States should lay down at least four big ships a year for many years to come. until Jacan comedies to us what is inevitable-the American con trol of the sea around which our pos sessions are scattered" As a mini mum for the Atlantic ocean the gov ernment should la. down six battle ships year. he said. Heretofore. said MT HobSon the weakness of America in the matter of national defense had not been fatal to it's growth and de- velopment. because the oceans conSti- tuted great barrier between Americd and the armies Of the world. Now, however" ne said, the oceans have been bridged and the armies Of the world have been brought to our doors. and along with the armies of the old er nations of Europe have come the armies of the ancient nations of Asia. He said that where America formerly lived more or less in isolation. she is now exciting the jealousy of other great nations in threatening their su- premacy in commerce. industry and finance. In addition. he declared that recent events have thrown Us into the political vortex of the world and that the dangers of being unprepared are becoming greater and greater with eacn succeeding year.
 After calling attention 70 Americas lack of a merchant marine which could he used as auxil:aries in time of war, and of transports necessary for properly conducting war opera tions, Mr Hobson said:
 We have almost no standing army and coHid not prevent the seizure by a foreign power of a harbOr on our shores or near our shores. to be used as naval base: whereas it would be practically impossible for America to secure a naval base for operations ir European waters. Forts. mines, tor pedoes. torpedo boats and submarines are valuable accessories, but such de- lenses have never stopped a deter mined commander of a great fleet. They did not stop Nelson at COpen- hagen, nor Farragut at Mobile. nor Dewey at Manila. Such defenses never determine the issues of a war. and have no weight in deter ring an enemy from seeking war. The forts that We have are wOefully un- manned, whereas the troops needed for other iandward defense could not be mobiliZed within the time necessary
 The possibility of a conflict with Japan was discussed at length by Mir. Hobson He said it was but perfectly natural for Japan to aspire to domi- nate the commerce of China. the com

THE KING CRITICISED
 FOR HIS ABSENCE
When it Was Certain That a Cabinet Crisis Must Occur

London. April 6.-Herbert s. As quith, chancellor of the exehequer, who has been summoned by King Ed ward to Biarritz. crossed by the night boat from Dover to Calais tonight to see the king. whose absence at a time when it was forseen that Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman's illness must lead almost inevitably to- cabinet crisis. provokes criticisms. There has been a rumor that the king will return to London on Saturday next. but this is very doubtful.
 In q letter of resignation to the king. Sir Henry advised his majesty to summon Asquith. The latter points to the fact that there is no rival for the leadership of the party of the gov ernment His accession to the pre- miership undoubtedly will sooner or later lead to sweeping changes in the constitution of the late ministry. but in the unprecedented circumstances of q British premier resigning during an important session of parliament. it is quite possible that the new premier will content himself with absolutely necessary changes.

yet he has so little of the reform spirit to record and is so barren of any work Of reform that he would hardly satisfy the expectations raised among the republicans by some of the presidents regulations His ad- vocacy of perpetual franchise in the Philippine Islands shows that he looks at the corporation question from the standpoint of the corporation, rather than from the standpoint Of the pub lie.
 ''On the subject Of imperialism, the last nine years have shown the folly of our colonial policy. Taft testified before congress that We never could hope to have more than twenty or thirty thousand Americans in the Philippines. We have not anything like that number there. but even if we had, it would cost us more than 5000 a year for each of the 10000. to make up the s1O00OO0OO q year additional expense.
 No real reform can be expected from the republicans. because they are too deeply indebted to the preda- tory interests for support. If Taft is SAieSSCiiiHNiN tO ieiDpAs Hteih OI lHt trust question. and lacking in posi- tiveness on the tariff question. how can We hope for anything better from the other republican aspirants?"
 During the day, Bryan. in charge of a committee headed by President Shafroth and other officers of the Bryan democratic Club. visited many places of interest including the New Auditorium now nearing completion. in which will be held the national democratic convention in July. Bry- ans only other public reception was held this evening at the Chamber of Commerce, where hundreds of persons were present.
 In the morning Bryan addressed the students of Denver University. and later. attended the weekly meeting of the MinisteriaI Alliance. It was his in tentiOn to leave for the east tomorrow morning. but pressing invitation to become the guest of the Denver Press Club was accepted for tomorrow morning. Bryan will leave in the af- ternOon. He goes directly to New York.

 Referring to the situation in San Francisco. MT. Hobson declared that the most trifling incidents there were seized upon and made great interna- tional affairs.
 When we realize" said he. that in case of war with Japan We could do nothing, practically, to harm that country, whereas We would be exposed on all sides to injury that cannot be computed. il becomes q matter of ab- solute necessity for our peace and tranquility that We should not only have a naval force in the Pacific as large as that of Japan, but that on account of our strategic disadvantage we should have a very substantial margin of superiority"
 In conclusion, MT. Hobson said: Tt may be remarked that at this crit ical juncture when the world is drift ing towards wars. the failure on the part of America 10 build up the naval power adequate to keep peace in the Pacific ocean will be liable to entail not only war between America and Japan, but ultimately a war between the White race and the Yellow race, and engender hatred and anger be- tween the races, that would prevent the carrying of the Gospel of Peace Asia. The true policy for a Christian to advocate is to have his country, the great peace country. keep the peace. secure and create the op- portunitv for the church to reach the myriads of Aria and carry the Gospel until every knee shall bow"
 The remarks of MT. HObson were addressed to bill appropriating S4.650. 900 for a naval station at Pearl Harbor. Hawaii. Champ Clark. of Missouri favoring the bill. said the station should. have been established long ago, because. unless the United States had naval station at Pearl Harbor. some other country would To- cate there.

Pasa Robles Hot Springs. Cal. April 6.-In spite of a somewhat restless and unsatisfactory night last night Rear Admiral Robiey b. Evans had the best day today since his arrival at the springs. He did not take a carriage ride today. This afternoon he was wheeled about the hotel grounds. Lat CT he spent an hour in the solarum. where he talked for some time with Adjutant General G. B. L.auck. Cover nor Gillett's chief of staff. and several others.
 The attitude Of the people of the Springs and in town is very gratify- ing to Admiral Evans. Dr. Mcdonald and Lieutenants Evans and Train There is no gathering of many guests in the halls and on the wide verandas of the hotel when the admiral is brought down stairs. nor is he started at when wheeled about the grounds Every greets him pleasantly as if he were an old resident. Seldom does any one attempt to enter into a conversa- tion with him unless invited This pleases the admirals party very much.
 Lieutenant Train stated this after noon that it would not be decided for several days vet whether il would be wise for Admiral Evans to rejoin the fleet at San Diego on the 14th. That depends wholly upon his improvement and gaining strength, which has been quite marked since his arrival five days ago.

two years ago today the Declaration
of independence of the Republic of
Texas was signed and the represen-
tatives of the 10000 white people
then within. its confines boldly
threw off the yoke of Mexican op-
preston and pronounced Texas a
free, sovereign and independent re-
public, fully invested with all the
rights and attributes which properly
belong to independent nations"
The anniversary was celebrated
throughout the state as holiday.
In nearly all cities banks and stores

Quoted by schools, colleges and pa
triotic cities in many places.
The Declaration of Independence
was first read under a grove of oak
trees at the village of Columbia, on
the Brazos river, on March 2, 1896
Following that declaration came the
bloody massacre at Goliad on Sun
day, March 81. The battle of San
Jacinto, which resulted in the utter
defeat of Santa Annals army and the
capture of the Mexican chief the day
following, was fought April 21. On
May IA the treaty was drawn at Vel
asco. March 2, the day of the sign
ing of the declaration of independ-
ence, is celebrated as Texas Inde-
pendence Day. however, just as July
is celebrated by the United States.
The presidents of the republic of
Texas during its existence were:
Henry Smith provisional governor) !,
March, 1886; David G. Burnet, ad
interim, 1886; Sam Houston, 1896;
Mirabeau M. Lamar, 1896; Sam
Houston, 1S41; Anson Jones, 144

President Polk the same day. Presi-
dent Jones of Texas called conven-
ton, which ratified the act, and pre-

REX IS THE KING.

New Orleans. March with the
arrival of King Rex and his court,
and numerous land and water pag-
eants, parades, balls and fetes on the
program for the last two glorious
days of Mardi Gras, the Crescent City
today entered upon a period OF unre-
strained merriment unprecedented
even in the annals of the famous
New Orleans carnival. 1t is likely
that every state in the Union is rep
resented among the thousands of
people swarming through the brilli-
antly decorated streets, and Mexico,
Cuba and even Europe have furnish
ed substantial additions to the
crowds.
Reports from Mobile, Natchez and
other southern cities state that un-
usually large crowds are participant
ing in the Mardi Gras festivities at
those places.
