WILCOX LECTURE On
. JAPAN AND THE EAST
State University Professor De-
rides So-called Peril of the
Yellow Man
TELLS OF EASTERN SITUATION
Professor w. C. Wilcox. Of Iowa City,
Appears Before searchlsht Club in
Interesting Recital Of Historic De-
veIopment Of Eastern Asia-Praises
Hobson, But Refutes His Theory.

While DENYING that he came to an
swer Congressman r. p. Hobson late
of the United States navy, Prof. w. c..
Wilcox, Of the chair of history of the
state university, in lecture before the
Searchlight club at the Railroad y M.
c. A. Tuesday evening, refuted many
of the theories OF that and other
alarnists, relative to Japan's invasion
of our western coast and the so-called
yellow peril Professor Wilcox lee
tured on the subject 1.-THE Present
Situation in the Far East" and his
discussion of the subject was more of
a recital OF development and history in
that part of the world than prophecy
of what the future relation Of Japan
and this country might develop.
A Three Fold Question.
Professor Wilcox said that, insofar
as the United States was concerned.
the eastern question was three-fold,
and had developed gradually. Our
interest in that part OF the world, he
declared was first conferred in Austria,
Asia Minor and Turkey. Then the
center of interest moved eastward to
Persia, Tibet and that part Of Asia
north Of the Persian gulf Still later,
and during recent years, the center
had moved still more to the east,
past Singapore, including eastern Asia
and Japan Chief among all three,
and that which held the worlds stage
most prominently just now, was Japan.
Japanese Development Remarkable.
In taking up the subject of the Japan
question he divided it into three sub
topics, the superiority of the people.
the efficiency of the Japanese navy,
and the Japanese treaty. He
said the American people overestimate
the Japanese, basing their Judgment
upon those young men of Japan VINO
come to this country and who attain
marked success in college work or BUS
mess. These Professor Wilcox said,
were the cream of the nation, which,
after all. was race of coolies.
He declared that the Japanese navy
had never been put in a severe test,
and that both of its victories over
China and Russia had been fought and
won in home waters. He ridiculcd the
Russian navy, and said 1t was unpre-
pared for battle when 1t reached the
Japanese island. and that 1t was OFF,
cered by ken lords. He likewise
ridiculed the idea of England going to
war with this country for various reas-
ons, chief among which was trade re-
lations.
Mr.. Wilcox gave no credence to the
EXPRESSED fear that Japan would at
tack orr Pacific coast During his lee
ture Professor Wilcox frequently m
terrupted himself to illustrate a point
with a funny story, and his audience
often stopped him with applause. he
proved to be clear forceful ana
pleasing speaker. c. II. Van Law IN

OUR NATIONAL DANGER.
Time to Cry a Halt Before Complete
Wreck Results.

There are thousands, both men and
women, who do not take time to eat
properly. They rush thru life, and
as result we have an age of indiges-
ton, nervousness, irritability. sleepless
nights, and morose disposition. Our
national danger is stomach weakness,
due to the strenuous life.
Mi-o-na tablets strengthen the walls
of the stomach and stimulate secretion
of the digestive juices. They make the
stomach comfortable and cure indi-
geston.
Sick headaches, palpitation, yellow
skin and coated tongue are a few Of
the many distressing results of indi-
gestion that Mi-o-na never fails to
cure.
Mcbride & Will sell Mi-o-na in SO
cent boxes, and guarantee to refund
the money if it does not give complete
satisfaction.

The second car in the New York
to-Paris automobile endurance race,
the Italian Zust which reached this
city Tuesday afternoon, was unable 10
proceed very fast owing to. the heavy
roads. 1t required two hours to reach
State Center fifteen miles distant. and
at Ames the car tied up for the night.
A. l.. Rutland, of New York, general
agent for the Zust Motor Company OF
Milan, Italy, who is directing the trip
and has been on the car during the en-
tire journey, asked the T.R. to deny
most emphatically the statement made
to the Chicago Tribune, few days ago
by Capt. Hans Hansen, the Norwegian
explorer who started out on De Dion.
Hansen said that the Zust had been
assisted over u part of the route oy
other than its own motor power, but
this Rutland says is not true. He says
that the car was helped out of the In
diana snow drifts by teams, but TINS
same assistance was given all other
cars.
Driving the Zust was Giulio Sirtorl,
the celebrated Italian chauffeur who
took the Zust thru the great Targa-
Forio race last summer and won
place Henri Haaga is the Zust

VIII Sape Stockmen
4 Little Money.

We have already told in this journal
how the order of the interstate COM
merce commission will be put into ef-
feet next week by which the railroads
will again put in force the tariffs on
cattle shipments in force prior to 1903.
In that year some of the rates were
advanced and now the railways are
putting the rates back where they
were formerly. This will result in a
saving of several dollars a car on a
great many shipments. The stockmen
who will be benefited are those living
in eastern Colorado and New Mexico,
who ship to the river markets as well
as those who ship stock from the
southwest to the northern ranges. In
some instances it is expected that as
much as $40 a car will be saved. The
reduction was ordered on July 6 by the
interstate commerce commission. The
railways attempted to secure a re-
straining order in federal court, but
on October 23rd, the court refused to
grant an injunction and so the order of
the commission will have to stand.
The ordeal came like pulling teeth but
the railroads will have to fall for it. =

1t is a splendid showing that
the State of Colorado has about
S4OO 600 in it's different funds to
turn over to a Democratic State
administration, particularly when
it IS considered that the Repub-
lican administration not only had
to begin with a deficit but has,
owing to the rapid growth of
the State, had greatly increased
expenditures. 1t is to be hoped
that the Democrats will be able
to do as well, and, two years
hence will be able to turn over
to the victorious Republicans at
least little surplus instead of a
deficit.

1t is hardly to be expected
that tariff tinkering will be al
lowed to cut any figure with the
tariff revision to be undertaken,
yet so insidious may be the op-
portunity and chance, that it
will require watchfulness to pre-
vent it. That the Congress of
the United States and the COM
missions should, following a
Democratic majority in Colorado,
wonder whether the beet grow
ers want their industry protected
or not, seems quite natural; but,
in that as in other matters wise
counsel will doubtless prevail,
and all industries needing pro-
lection are likely to get it.
