OUR RELATIONS IN PACIFIC
United States and Japan Exchange
Notes-Status Quo Upheld.

Washington.-The notes exchanged be-
tween the United States and Japan, "de-
claring their policy in the far East, y
which have been the subject of corre-
spondence between Secretary of State
Root and Ambassador Takahira for some
months, were made public at the State
department Tuesday. In explicit terms,
they are as follows:
81. 1t is the wish of the two govern
ments to encourage the free and peace
full development of their commerce on
the Pacific ocean.
"2. The policy of both governments,
uninfluenced by any aggressive tenden-
cies is directed to the maintenance of
the existing status quo in the region
above mentioned, and to the defense of
the principle of equal opportunity for
commerce and authority in China.
SO. They are accordingly firmly re-
solved reciprocally to respect the terri
torial possessions belonging to each other
in settled region.
81. They are also determined to pre-
serve the common interests of all pow
ers in China by supporting by all pacific
means at their disposal, the independ-
ence and integrity of China and the
principle of equal opportunity for COM
merce and industry of all nations in
that empire.
"5. Should any event occur threaten
ing the status quo as above described or
the principle of equal opportunity as
above defined. it remains for the two
governments to communicate with each
other in order to arrive at an under
standing as to what measures they may
consider it useful to take"

BRYAN BUYS TEXAS FARM
Will Plant It in Oranges, Figs, Ba'

Brownsville, Texas.-W. j. Bryan re-

arriving at Hidalgo, Texas, Tuesday
afternoon, going from there to Mission,
Texas. While there he purchased 100
acres of land from John j. Conway,
which he will have cleared at once. 1t
is Mr.. Bryan's intention to plant his
farm at Mission in oranges, figs, ba'
nanas and pecans.
Mr.. Bryan, accompanied by Mrs.
Bryan, were met at the depot by vast
crowd. It was with difficulty that the
local military company forced a pas
sage for Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan to the car
riace which was in waiting for them.
After reception MIR. Bryan addressed

the Rio Grande valley. The Third regl'
ment- band of Mexico greeted them as

More Proof Of His Wisdom.

farm about Arabian horses, of which

"They must be treated kindly" he
said. Never a blow of the whip.
That would drive them mad with rage
and humiliation.
animals, like children, must be
kindly treated. A blow spoils all"
but as regards children, you
know" the reporter objected, didn't

ChiId's Bib.

An excellent way for making chill
dren's bibs, and one that fully an
swers the purpose, is made by using
the regular yoke pattern, cutting the
back deep enough so that. narrow
piece of the goods comes under the
arm. Instead of the same depth yoke
in front, cut the material as long as
the child's dress, rounding the goods
at the side if you prefer. Join the
back yoke to the front piece; cut the
sleeves, and sew in; face the yoke
neck and sides with bias strips Of the
material. Two buttons will be sufti'
cient for the back. When finished you
will have a bib that not only entirely
covers the front of the child's dress
hut also protects the sleeves.

CANNON GIVES IN TO TAFT
President-Elect Will Not Oppose
Speaker if He Makes Good.


Hot Springs, Va.-A truce has been
declared in the Taft Cannon fight. 1t
might almost be said that peace has
been declared at the president-elect's s
own terms, for the speaker has capitu-
lated and will promise the president
elect that if he will consent to Cannon's
reelection as speaker of the house, the
latter will fall in line, not only with
Mr.. Taft's tariff reform policy, but that
he will give the entire Roosevelt-Taft
progressive policy clear road in the
Congress which will be summoned by
the presiednt-elect Immediately after his
Inauguration.
1t might be imagined that the promise
made recently to Taft by Cannon's
friends would be all that was necessary
to make peace certain, but Mr.. Taft de-
cines to be caught mapping and II
things can. be kept just. as they are
now, he will be perfectly satisfied. But
Cannon must give his own personal
promise, which Taft will ask of him
when he reaches Washington.
