DEMOCRAT KIDS
MEET TONIGHT

The Young Mems Democratic
club meets again tonight in the
police courtroom at the city hall,
and any citizen possessed of the
notion that there is no life in the
present campaign can get himself
satisfactorily readjusted there.
President E. o. Connor will pre-
side. the executive committee and
all the local candidates are expect
ed to be present.
w. c. Jones, ex-congressman,
will deliver the principal address,
directing his argument particularly
to first voters, more particularly to
those first voters who may have
developed symptoms of casting
their maiden ballots for Taft. Jones
would point them to the way
blazed by Bryan.
The club tonight will lay plots
for getting out the democratic
vote. Rigorous measures will not
be resorted to except in aggravated
cases, but a systematic effort will
be outlined for seeing that every
democratic ballot in the city and
county is cast. The young demo,
Gratis are out to make it unani
nous.

JAPAN ASKS
ALLIANCE

TOXIC, Oct. pa convention
of all powers interested In the far
east. to be headed by America,
England and Japan, for discussion
of questions and for a possible
formation of an alliance between
America, Japan and England along
the line of the Anglo-Japanese
treaty, was proposed today by ia
panese statesmen.
The sentiment for a convention
became known today and several
officials of the cabinet expressed
themselves to high officers of the
American feet as earnestly desir-
ing such conference. One Japa-
nese official is quoted as having
said he favored open discussion
among the powers instead of the
secret diplomacy in vogue.
1t is the sentiment of foreign
diplomats here that Japan will
have out-generaled the world in
diplomacy if the plan succeeds by
fortifying herself at one stroke
against the dangerous sentiment
for a white Pacific"

SHOWS PROOF
OF CORPORATION

AS proof of the incorporation of
The Wheeler Gold Mining Co.,
which is the defendant in receiver
ship proceedings instituted by B.
C. Secord and others. w. w. Hin
man, attorney for the defendants,
offered as evidence the certificate
received from the secretary OF
state when the articles were al
legged to have been filed.
The local records do not show
that the articles were filed with
the county auditor, and additional
time was granted the defendants
to make thorough search of the
records to guard against possible
error in the filing. Much depends
upon the proof that the company
was a corporation.
