AS Candidate Taft Is to be an under

to further carry out my policies IL
il most important to know inst
where the President now stands on
the matter OF trust-busting and the
punishment OF egil-doers.
What lends color TO the charge that
Mr.. Roosevelt is showing reactionary
symptoms Is the report that the prose-
cutlon OF the fertilizer trust has been
discontinued. There is also the fact
that in spite OF his seven years work

IL Is almost impossible to escape the

The Republican plan for the public
ity Of campaign contributions after
election" is evidently a political fake
to fool thcse who believe that con.
tributions from trusts and corpora
tions are returned BY reciprocal
favors Congressman Gaines OF West
Virginia has let the cat out Of the
bag, and as be was chairman OF the
committee which favorably reported
the publicity bill he undoubtedly
knows all about such political
schemes.
"A dispatch from Hot Springs, where
Mr.. Gaines is visiting Mr.. Taft, re-
ports Mr. Gaines having said that he
was in sympathy with the Efforts OF
both Mr. Taft and SIR. Bryan to have
publicity. but he feared that the local
political managers, the men who have
to get the dough- would do just as
they have done in years gone BY, and
neither Mr.. Taft nor Mr.. Bryan would
be told about It.
Il do not say" remarked the West
vIrginian. that the publicity law puts
premium on perjury. but It puts
yeracity az disadvantage. am not
in favor OF any legislation that makes
conscientious man less available as
a campaign manager than man with
an elastic conscience"
Congressman Gaines Is a shrewd
Republican politician and leader OF
his party. and he plainly tells us that
the Republican managers have to get
the dough" and that political corrup-
ton win flourish as in other cam
paigns. SO all this talk OF not re.
ceiving contributions from trusts by
the innocent Taft. and the promise
OF publicity ~after election" is but
new scheme to fool the voters.
Well. we expected as much.

LONDON, Jan. 2.-England is expert
encing what might well be called an
almost startling awakening to the grave
problems caused by the immigration OF
Asiatics to her white colonies. Inc
principal topic for a week has been the
situation in the Transvaal, where several
thousand of East Indians and Chinese
were given the alternative of submitting
to what they consider a degrading sys-
tenn of administration or being imprls-
oned and expelled.
The reports of further racial rioting at
Vancouver came at a particularly in
opportune time, on account of negotia-
tions now under way between Canada
and Japan, and they are very annoy
ing to the British government, officials
having hoped that the Japanese willing
ness substantially to restrict her emil
grafton would soften the anti-Japanese
prejudices on the Pacific coast. 1t is
recognized that the race question is more
serious for Great Britain than America,
for the Indians are British subjects ana
the Japanese are her allies,
The Transvaal has temporarily re-
Trained from taking measures against
those Indians who have refused to reg
lister, other than to renew the traders
licenses. all of which expired December
81 1t is proposed, however, TO execute
the law in a few days. Two thousand
Indians from all parts of the Transvaal
met recently in Johannesburg and voted
to refuse to submit to the law.

FIREMEN WILL RECOVER

} VANCOUVER, B. c., Jan. 2.-ln the
police court today H. Nakashei, K. Tan
gust and NJ. Tanowye, japanese, ap-
peared on a charge of attempted murder
in connection with the stabbing of the
three firemen New Years day. The ac-
cused were remanded, bail being refused.
Reports from the hospital this evening
state that Richard Frost and George
Anderson, two of the firemen stabbed,
are doing well, but will not be out of
the hospital for several days. The third
member of the fire department in the
ARRAY. Alexander Mcdonald, was only
slightly cut in the neck, and is able to
be about.
There is no excitement in the city over
the occurrence. 1t being recognized that
one of the firemen pushed another against
the window of a Japanese boarding house
in spirit of New Years frolic and
broke several panes of glass. The Jap
anese, hearing the breaking glass and
believing they were TO be attacked,
rushed out and in great excitement at
tackled the firemen with knives.
The stabbing ARRAY has not stirred up
race feeling in Vancouver, although the
attacking by the Japanese Of men in
uniform is considered significant as show
ing that the whites were not irresponsible
rioters and that the stabbing was quite
unjustihable
There is no excitement over the mat
ter, and the authorities think there will
be none.
