masters place. This writer
says many nice things about
Japan. The world sympathized
with her in her war with China
for the independence of Korea,
becaused she seemed to be the
smaller and weaker Of the two.
When she fought with Russia
the powers looked on with bated
breath, and loud expressions of
admiration echoed around the
globe. Her intellectual pro-
gress has been most creditable
to her, but she is at present, we
are told, suffering from undue
citation, from "swelled head" in
fact, and the nations are growing
tired of what the writer inter
prets as her greed and her ar
rogance. Why, he asks, is she
increasing her land and sea
forces, although her treasury is
on the verge Of bankruptcy?"-

James FL. Brady chairman of
the republican state central com
mittee. and candidate for COVER
nor, states he is now and Away S
has been in favor of direct pri-
mary law, and says he sincerely
hopes the republican party in
the coming campaign will have
a specific plank in the platform
favoring the passage of such a
law. That plank was in the
platform of the republican party
two years ago, and when it came
up for passage by the legisla-
ture. Mr.. Brady used his in
fuence to have the bill defeated.
Brady loves the primary law as
we'll as the devil loves holy water
because he we'll knows that il

left to a direct vote of the people,
and not to a packed convention,
he would not get within q
thousand miles Of it.-Weiser

Considerable complaint has
been made by the farmers since
the hitching posts were removed
last Saturday that they have no
place where they can tie their
teams while shopping. Their
complaint is natural, because
right at present no steps have
been taken to put in hitching
racks in the vacant lots to &C
comodate them. But the Times
feels certain that the business
men will shortly provide some
substantial hitching racks in the
vacant spots back Of the stores,
and this paper is willing to con.
tribute it's share toward the
hitching racks.

Railway common was the leader IN
the trading on the Washington Stock
Exchange today, recording sales OF 400
shares at prices ranging from 35zs 10
S44s. Both in the bidding and the selling
the tendency was slowly downward the
closing bid for the stock being pegged
at 81
The preferred stock was held firmly
by those who had it for sale. Bids were
put in for fractional and quotation lots
Of the stock as high as s2h, but it could
not be had at that price. Finally, after
call, i've shares were sold at SSla with
the closing bid at that figure, and the
stock offered at SSss.
Gas failed TO awaken much attention
today. Bids for the stock were below
81, closing at 631z. a five share lot was
sold at Go.
Other trading was 100 shares Of Lans-

The bonds were entirely neglected, ex-

The slight reaction in the most active
