Japan Is a Quick Learner.

Everybody knows how readily
Japan when it came in contact with
western civilization, learned west
ern methods and adopted them. Not
only in education and government,
but in the construction of warships
and in the organization of armies,
Japan has been the wonder of the
world. In a few years it was able
to put into the field Iegions of dis
ciplined troops, and upon the ocean
great fighting machines which de-
feated and Inundated the largest
and one of the most powerful mill
tary nations of Europe.
But Japan is showing its imita-
tiveness in another way. Reports
come from Toxic that the premier of
the insular empire is now in con-
test with $12, 100000 grating cor
poratiOn. Members of the Japanese
diet are implicated in this graft, and
there is a likelihood that the gov
eminent of the mikado will make it
warm for them and perhaps for the
trust before it is through with them.
But the point to which we wish here
to call attention is the quickness of
Japan in adopting some of our evil
methods, as well as many of our best
things. For hundreds of years there
was no such thing as corruption on
large scale in Japan. The utmost
honesty was expected of it's officials
and their fidelity to the government
was of a marked character.
But now the Japanese have be-
come acquainted with the tricky and
fraudulent methods of western ma
. tions and have become corrupted by
them. even though they have been
benefited by acquaintance with some
of the higher and better aspects OF
western civilization. And we appre-
bend that in the future the greatest
peril to Japan will be not in the
power and invasive spirit of for
eign armies and navies, but in its
liability to tolerate some of the
worst business methods and political
methods as well, which it has
learned from Europe, and especially
from the United States. Even though
these western countries profess to be
at the very height of civilization, able
to teach the rest of the world science
religion, and ethics, and to illustrate
them by example, yet these countrie:
have not failed to corrupt in some
degree every other nation, and ever,
tribe, with which they have come il
contact. This has been done by tn,
selfishness, the greed, the desire TO
exploitation and spoilation, by tn,

Peace in the Anthracite Coal District

There will be no coal strike. The
anthracite coal mine operators and the
mine workers representatives have
united in a three years agreement
which has been referred to refer
endum vote of the members of the
United Mine Workers association, by
whom it will doubtless be approved.
After much threatening by "Divin-
Iity'' Baer, operators and mine workers
found that they were not as far apart
as at first appeared. To the demand
of the miners for shorter hours and
classes of work, the operators an
swered an emphatic no and would not
yield from the position. Conditions in
the industrial and financial world were
such that it would be impossible for
them to raise wages and shorten hours.
They would rather shut down the
mines. Thereupon the miners yielded
on these demands which, truth to tell,
were doubtless put forward at this
times for trading purposes.
, The next most important question
involved recognition of the miners
union. All mine workers, anthracite
and bituminouS are members of one
organiZation-the United Mine Work
ers' association. President Roosevelt's
anthracite strike commission recon-
mended the withdrawal of the anthra
cite miners from this body, and the
formation of a separate organization
because no agreement could be made
which would deal equitably with boil
classes of miners. The recommends
ton has never been carried out 70,
reasons deemed good and sufficient by
the anthracite workers. The operators
| indicated that if there was such sepa
rate organization that they would b,
warranted in recognizing the union
but that it was unjust to expect then
to concede the right of a bituminou;
coal miner in Illinois or Iowa to have
voice in the conditions of employment
of the anthracite coal miner in Penn

The Argus Daily Short Story
Big Clown and Little Clown-By Temple Bailey.
Conyrighted. 1909 by Associated I-itera Press.

In the amethyStine haze or an Aprn
morning on the Arizona foothills the
cowboys of Circle Ii wheeled their
bronchos into the gray dust of the
trail.
There was wild iangle of spurs, a
CHATTER of FESTIVE lioofs. and they were
off like one of the brown whirlwinds
of their own desert to meet Gypsy and
"the boss" who were coming to the
ranch to spend Il week.
They had derisively hurled 'Arios,
Layne!" ut the bronZed young foreman
as he leaned against the corral gate.
They could not understand why he had
persistently refused to join their re-
ception committee.
1t really was not the coming of Her
ington, 1.-THE boss" that was calling
forth the unusual demonstration, but
the return of Gypsy. their little COM
rade of the range, whom they had not
seen for four years. 1t never entered
their simple heads that two years of
school in France, followed by two
more of travel and society, might
have changed their merry, fun loving
little pet.
She was coming back as she had
promised-that was the dominant con
sideration-and off they went, whoop-
| ing.
Ned Layne, however, knew different

She was a young lady, and they-and

parted into the world, and he remem
bered how she had said to him:

lion pounds, $113, 100000. This SUN
represents the excess which the Amer
lean pays for his sugar over what he
would pay if he got the London price.
Defenders of the present sugar
schedules base their arguments on
three propositions:
l. That the duty must be kept high
enough to protect the beet and cane
sugar industries.
2. That there must be such differ
entail between the duties on raw and
refined sugars as will protect the re-
filming business in this country.
8. That this differential is now very
narrow, and only sufficient to give this
protection and prevent the refining be-
ing done abroad.
On the other side it is claimed that
the differential is much greater than
the public is given to understand. and
that it gives the sugar trust vastly
greater margin for profit than is admit
ted by champions of the sugar sched-
ules.
The present full duty on raw sugar
is $1.6S1a per hundred pounds. and IN
refined sugar $1.95, the PayneAldrich
bill proposing to reduce the latter fig
ure to $3.50
1t is urged that the present differ
entail of 261A cents leaves only mod
crate profit on the cost of refining.
