1t is learned at the office of the ad-
jutant general that one of the matters
under consideration by the department
is the removal of the ammunition
storehouse from Augusta to Bruins
wick. Major Gilbert M. Elliott, Wh1
has charge of the ordnance depart
ment, believes that the change would
ensure quicker filling of acquisitions
besides making it easier to keep a con-
slant schedule of the amount on hand
Under existing billing arrangements
on the railroad ammunition can be
shipped from the factories to Bruins
wick cheaper than to Augusta, and it
can be shipped out of Brunswick tC
nearly every company in the State at
a smaller figure than it can from Au-
guSta.

GUILD CONDEMNS RAILROAD
Singing Reference Made by Former
Goyarnor of Massachusetts.

Singing Reference Made by Former
Governor of Massachusetts,.
Boston, Feb. 8.-Stinging reference
to his experience as governor in con-
nection with alleged violation of Mas
sachusetts law by the New, York, New
Haven and Hartford railroad is made
by former Governor Guild in an art
icle published here. The article says:
'"The New York, New Haven and
Hartford railroad brazenly and DELHI
erately violated the laws of Massa-
chusetts in regard to trolley lines.
The individual who was governor at
the time was violently abused because
he sharply called attention to that
violation. It was pleaded by inter
ested parties that innocent investors
were injured; that there was no viola
ton in reality and that the sorely
tried executive had not merely acted
without calm deliberation' but as a
mere demagogue.
"The railroad commission, the attor-
ney general and the supreme court of
Massachusetts have since declared
that the governor was right"

Pioneer. 1.-The Grand Rapids and
Cass Lake high school basketball
teams, boys and girls, met in the
local high school gymnasium Satur-
day evening in two of the most
exciting games ever played at this
place. Both of the Grand Rapids
teams were victorious and their
victory was we'll merited. They
outplayed the locals at all stages of
the game. Their speed and team work
were especially the cause of the vic

excellent game, their size and mex

visitors prevented a possible victory.

fore organized, one director shall be

INDIFFERENCE IN JAPAN
Agitation in Pacific States Causes No
Excitement.

Agitation in Pacific States Causes No
Excitement.
Toxic, Feb. 8.-The passage by the
lower house of the Nevada legislature
of an anti-J apanese resolution was
received here with remarkable indif-
ference. The publication of the text
Of the resolution aroused active re-.
sentiment in the columns of the second
rate press. The leading newspapers
in commenting on the resolution point
ed out the fact that Nevada was a
small state and did not necessarily
represent the sentiment of the Amer
lean people. +
Foreign Minister Komura, in ad-
dressing the house of lords, repeated
verbatim the speech he made in the
diet a few days ago. His remarks
caused no discussion. The absence of
extended comment on the situation in
the Japanese newspapers is believed
to be due to the reported action Of
the California legislature in defeating
the Drew anti-alien land bill and also
to the resolutions Of the New York
board of trade and President Roose-
velt's letters and kilograms to Gov
ernor Gillett of California, all of
which have been. fully reported to the
local press.
The leading newspapers comment
favorably on the present aspect of the
situation.
The Asahi says that notwithstand-
ing many misunderstanding the rela-
lions of America and Japan remain
unimpaired The Hochi, one Of the
papers which has most bitterly de-
nounced the action of the California
legislature, congratulates Japan on
the maintenance of good relations
with the United States and says that
it would he matter Of deep regret if
the action of minority of the people
of California should cripple the com
mercial and diplomatic relations of
the two countries.
Notwithstanding the improved tone
of the press it is quite evident that
the recent action of the California
and Nevada legislatures has created
feeling among commercial men and
even in the official element which is
calculated to damage the position of
the United States with Japan, which
formerly was becoming steadily
stronger
