JAPAN TAKING TO A MEAT DIET
From the Consular Report.

The head OF the cattle breeding de-
partment OF the Japanese government,
Mr.. Hashimoto, Is at present visiting
England. says the London and China
Telegraph. to make purchases Of stock.
He Is accompanied by Mr.. Nuyama and
Major Ishibashi, who have come to buy
horses and agricultural implements.
Mr.. Hashimoto discussed his mission
as follows: Meat eating is on
the increase in Japan. It's pop
ularity is increased by the re-
rectly advanced theory than an over
great consumption Of rice IL a source
Of berf bert. The upper and middle
classes. who have hitherto eaten large
quantities Of rice, are now slowly be-
ginning to add meat to their dietary.
Beef Is the favorite dish. 1t Is now ten
or IL years since we began to import
European cattle into Japan to improve
our native breeds. Our object is q
dual one. We wish to produce beast
which will be serviceable for draft
purposes and will at the same time
be of value when subsequently killed
for meat We also want to produce
a good milch cow. For the first pur-
pose a brown breed Of Swiss cattle Is
found to make the best mixers; for the
mixers we are introducing Ayrshires.
On an average we send over 100 beasts
a year. and have paid as much as
$3.50 gold for very good heifer. We
also import Berkshire and Yorkshire
pigs, and sheep from Russia.

Fred T. Alexander, republican
Douglas county, who is here attend

eraly years in Vernon county, Wis
cOnsin, coming to the state of Wash
ington in 1889. He was engaged in
teaching school and newspaper and
job printing work for a number of
years. While living in Spokane he
spent six years in the money order
and registry division of the post
Office. He is a member of the Alex
ander Mercantile company, of Wa
terville, which has grown to be one
of the leading businesses of Douglas
county.
Owing to his strong belief in
Miles Poindexter and the reforms he
advocates, and other issues for the
betterment of the county and the
state, Mr.. Alexander was finally in
duced to let his name come before
the primaries for the nomination for
representative. He won the nomi-
nation over probably the strongest
man and best worker the old line
republicans had in Douglas county.
1t is said that he has no special inter-
ests to cater to and ought to be
real representative of the county.
He is open and above board in the
principles he advocates. Owing to
his temperance habits he has in
Cured the displeasure of the saloons
of Waterville and Bridgeport and
they are expanding their best ener-
gies to defeat him. Mr.. Alexander
has taken a decided stand on the

believing in the spirit of the initia-
tive and referendum which will al

ion on the liquor as we'll as other

ROCKEFELLER DEFEATED
Efforts to Close Railway Station
to AdirondaCkS Fail.

Albany April 1e.-William Rockefeller s
efforts to secure the abandonment of the
station of the New York & ottawa Railway
at Brandon, in the heart OF his Adirondack
preserve. have proved unsuccessful. The
Public Service Commission announced to-
day that ii has refused to consent to such
a plan.
Brandon. twenty years ago. was VIII
lage OF about 200 inhabitants. Its pOpu-
Iation now numbers about a score, and is
made up OF four families. The nearest
railroad station to the north is Madawaska.
four miles distant and to the south Bay
Pond, nearly as far away. There IS no
connection by highway between Brandon
and Madawaska and the station at Bay
Pond can he reached only by a private
road leading across Mr.. Rockefeler's prem
ises, at the entrance TO which is a sign
reading: Private road. No admittance."
One OF the residents or Brandon. Oliver
I.amora, has been forbidden through an
Injunction to go over this road. Some time
ago the postoffice was removed from the
village. but the few remaining residents
have determined not to be Ousted.
Vice President Albert IL. Harris, Of the
New York Central appeared personally
about ten days ago TO urge the commission
10 consent to the aOandOnment or Nlle SID
tIon The years passenger business at
Brandon. il was shown, amounted to only

uarv TO November last year were only

the station is a necessity and that to dis
continue it would seriously inconvenience
the people.
Chairman Stevens Of the commission, in
an opinion. says that if there were de-
sire to drive out these people from their
homes. II would be difficult 10 conceive a
more efTicacious plan to that end than to
discontinue their station.
If the station were discontinued, he says.
they would be compelled to resort to Bay
Pond, and at Bay Pond they cannot OBJ
tain any access to the station except over
the private road Of Mr.. Rockefeller; that
IL is not believed 20 be good public policy
that people desiring to reach a railroad
station should he obliged 10 travel over a
private road, especially when that road
bristles with notices forbdding trespass-
ing.
The fact that Mr.. Rockefeller is willing
to allow this private road To he used at
the present time for access to the station.
