Japan's New Year.

New Year is really it, In Japan. the
celebration of Americans and other out
siders being tame in comparison with the
fourteen days of festivity given up to 1t
in the land Of the chrysanthemum. And
yet how few know anything about the
celebration over. there! The Chinese New
Year has been written up so much that
nearly everybody knows about 1t; but
Japan's has remained a good deal of q
mystery. This fact makes the article In
our next Sunday Magazine by Adachi
Kinnosuke doubly interesting.

Calafatita to Revolutionize Sulphate
of Soda Market.

Foreign Correspondence OF The Star
MADRID. December Is, 1910.
A new mineral has been discovered al
Benahadux. near Almeria, which has
been named calafatita. after its finder.
Senior Calafat.
This mineral consists of a substance
which after being caicined produces pure
alumina and pure sulphate of soda. As
the vein is a large one. it is believed that
II contains several million tons.
1t is thought that this discovery may
bring about a revolution in the sulphate
OF soda market. which has up to the
present been mOnopolized by the Ger
mans. An American firm has already
made an offer to purchase 10000 tons of
the new mineral annually, but SO far no
decision has been arrived at.

TWO THOUSAND VOTERS
LIABLE TO INDICTMENT
Rigid Inquiry in Ohio Commu-
nifty Exposes Corruption
in Elections.

PORTSMOUTH. Ohio. December o.
Manchester, Ohio. for investigation by
the grand Jury on the charge Of vote
selling. Five hundred more arrests, it
was said by county authorities. will be
made this week. It Is now believed the
probe will include 2.O0O men.
Judge Blair said that at least every
sixth man in the county would be the
subject of the investigation. Up to date
ia voters have acknowledged their guilt.
Among them is Rev. Isaac Hilten of Red
Brush, who admitted selling his vote in
the last election for so.
Because OF the minister's financial con-
liton Judge Blair made his fine light
one. but disfranchised him for five years.
With a. total of 633 indictments and ia
pleas of guilty to charges of vote selling
during the recent election. Adams county
presents a condition unique in political
history.
Rigid Inquiry in Progress.
A vigorous campaign of investigation
carried on by a grand jury acting upon
the instiga,ion Of Common Pleas Judge
a. z. Blair Of Portsmouth GAS resulted
IN the indictment of nearly 10 per cent
Of the voting strength Of the county.
One hundred and fourteen pleas of
guilty have been made, and In every in
stance the offender has been disfran-
chised for five years and fined nominal
sum. Workhouse terms have been Civ, n
% practically all, but most of the prison
sentences have been suspended. An edi
tor who q, nounced the investigation has
Oeen punished for contempt.
Corrupt on in Adams county goes back
for over twenty years and is perhaps
largely due to a general sanction of the
growing custom, as we'll as the absence
OF railways, telegraphs and telephones.
West Union, the county seat, is not
reached by either telegraph or railway.
In this respect 1t stands alone among
county seats in Ohio.
Judges Friends in the Net.
Judge Blair, born and brought up in the
county, recently determined to end the
corruption. Among those indicted are
many Of his lifelong friends and some of
his early playmates. Men in all walks of
life and OF unblemished reputation other
wise have been caught in the net. So far
the judge has ind Gated his purpose to go
after only the vote sellers. So strong have
been their demands for compensation for
their ballots that officeholders have been
able to earn only small net salaries
More tnan two-thirds OF all the voters
sold their votes II the Information l have
received Is correct said Judge Blair
THE turning up Of the wholesale frauds
in the political rings of thise county is not
the work of a day or even Of month. 1t
is the result of years of work-of hard.
conscientious work by the better class of
people of this county.
Several of the politicians are working
with us, but many are against us and
have successfully blocked our way until
last Monday. when the first indictments
were returned by the jury
The jury will reconvene here tomorrow
morning and a number of indictments will
be returned. Judge Blair says that Man.

BY WESTERN RAILROADS
NEGOTIATIONS Under Way With
Seventy Thousand
Employees.

CHICAGO. December 26.-With the
wage controversy between the western
railroads and the locomotive engineers
adjusted amicably. the managers are
ready to resume negotiations with the
trainmen and conductors. in the hope that
the slate may be wiped clean by the
new year.
Seventy-Five Thousand Involved.
Seventy-five thousand traiDmen and
conductors on all the railroads west of
Chicago are involved in the controversy.
They are demanding wage increase OF
about Is per cent. On account of the
critical stage which the negotiations with
the engineers reached at the end OF last
week. conferences with the trainmen and
conductors were adjourned temporarily.
They will be resumed tomorrow, and 1t
is expected that before the end of the
week an agreement may be reached.
Joint Action by Brotherhoods.
The brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen
and the order of Railway Conductors
are acting jointly i'm the negotiations.
The managers. it is understood. have Of
fered the men a fiat increase of 10 per
cent over existing schedules, but the
offer does not include any change in
working rules AS each rule means money
TO the men, they say they are more anx-
ious about rules than they are about
an increase.
So far the conferences have been mark
ed by harmony, and 1t is said there is
little danger Of "A break.

pole.

ported that the law in this particular
is being violated in many sections of

the officers will make all effort to put
a stop to 1t, and very probably arrests

none of our people will violate it.

as they destroy all manner of insects.
