MIR, BRYAN AT HOME.

William J. Bryan came home ysstet-
day. He reached New York full of en-
thusissm about The wonders OF South
Amerlcs, and With absolutely no ideas,
so far as be wss willing to admit, about
the state of affairs politically In this
country.
At the quarantine station tug, with
q reception committee composed of six
meD, awaited his coming through the
morning. They we're members of the
Oiuun-Nsvigasors Oluo, of which Mr..
Bryan Is member. There vas not a
politician on hand 10 greet him. Towsrd
noon the fog tbinned Gu. sufficiently to
allow the Caracas to come up the
bay.
Mr.. Bryan left Liuc 10, Neb., on
November l6, spending some time in
the southern states. On Decetdber 26 be
lef! Key West for Havana. Thence be
went to Jamsics, Panama, Peru, Bo.
livia, Ohili, Argentine and Brazil, re-
turning by way OF Porto Rico. "The
sutjact of my trip" he said, "was

reply. he went on to cay that he had
been out of the country for 30 long tist
he had not been able to keep up o1
political conditions and could say little
about the present situstion. He thought,
however, that the chances of the demo.

AN APRIL BLIZZ ARD.

Indiana was last night In the teeth o.
the worst April blizzard that hss ever
yisited The state In scores of years. I1
northern Indiana the snow is from two
to four Inches deep and 10 the centrs!
and southern parts of the state snow fel
during the greater part of the day, but
melted rapidly. In aome sections there
wsssa thin coating of ice on still water
and the fruit crop is badly damaged, i
net entirely killed.
Owing to the warm westher CT March
aud for 10 days Of April, sll fruits and
vegetation we're greatly advanced and
the sudden drop In temperature will
prove destructive in all parts of the state.
The center OF the present ssorm is over
northern Indiana and central Michigan
and Is unprecedented, considering the
advanced condition OF fruits and all
kinds OF vegetation. ;,
Unreasonable cold weather prevailed
throughout southern Ohio and northern
Kentucky and Indiana yesterday, Rain
fell Sunday night and yesterday morn.
Ing, turning to SNOW in the afternoon.
Although fruit and vegetation sre both
we'll advanced, it is believed no damage
has been done 30 far.
Temperature ranging from 81 degrees
to 38 degrees above z,ro, accompanied
BY intermittent flurries of snow, we're re-
ported from western Missouri, eastern
Kansas and southern Nebraska yester-
day. Colder weather was predicted fo'
last night.
Secretary Greene, of the Iowa State
Horticultural Department., yestsrdaj
estimated that the loss to IoWa's frui
and vegetable crop from the freezing
weather will be between SIS, 100000 and
$40, 900, 900. Snow was falling yestsr'
day In many parts OF IoWn.

Cashier Hikes 10 Other Part

F. H. Stickney, who at the time
of the closing of the First National
Bank of Rhyolite, occupied the
position of cashier of that institution
silently folded his tent last Thurs
day and departed for parts .un-
known.
The attitude of the miners in the
Rhyolite district, who had their
savings on deposit in the bank, was
not to Mr.. Stickney's liking, and it
is evident that he greatly feared
their wrath. Anyway he departed
without indulging in adieus. 1t
was rumored that Stickney went to
Reno, but late advices received
from the south section of that
country state that it was impossible
to locate the missing man in the
northern town.-Appeal.

as mercury will surely destroy the
sense of smell and completely
derange the whole system when
entering it through the mucous

never be used except on prescriptions

the right, they from the left.
When Commodore Perry went
there "brutes, dogs and women"
was the reading in many prohi-
bition at the holy places. The laws
were excessively cruel and the
punishment revolving. A common
sight was that of heads cut off and
exposed on pillorics or set on posts,
strapped on with iron and with
nails driven into the skulls.
Witnesses were examined under
torture and the jails were cold and
filthy. The theory that an accused
man is guilty until he proves himself
innocent was and is the rule. But
Japan has gone to school to the
whole world and has learned her
lessons with remarkable rapidity.
The natural features of Japan are
interesting and beautiful. There is
beauty in Japan, but though we
travel the world over to find the
beautiful, says Emerson, we must
carry it with us or we find it not.
No one knows the exact number of
islands constituting the empire.
This great chain of islancs, with a
coast line of $4,000 miles, is vir-
tually an immense mountain range !:
raised up out of the Pacific at the
same time geographically as the
Rocky Mountains. If Japan were
raised 1000feet higher it would cease
to be an island and would be joined
on to Asia. The formation of these
islands is not yet completed, for
Japan is slowly rising from the
Pacific. The wide and fruitful
plain around Tokyo only a few
hundred years ago was a vast inlet
of the ocean. There are bluffs in
the northern part Of Japan 200 feet
high, to the tops of which the
fishermen used to fasten their boats.
The destructive forces of tornado
and earthquake have slain their
thousands and tens of thousands,
but they have made possible the
Flowcry Kingdom. More will be
written on Japan later.
,, Yours truly
Geo. H. Greenfield.

From Mid Ocean

George H. Greenfield was received
several weeks ago, but has been
held off for various reasons:
|. Mid Ocean, February 10, 1910.
Editor Independent:
Today is February 10th, Satur-
day. We did not have any Febru-
airy 18th, nor did we have any FRI
day. Today is Saturday. Yesterday
was Thursday. We have crossed
the 190th Meridian. 1t was a very
strange experience to drop a day
out of the calendar. l believe it
is the first day have ever lost.
AS resident of the Pacific Coast
by choice and not by birth I am
glad Mr.. Clark has decided to do
business on Americas principal
street, the Pacific ocean. Japan has
even expressed a modest desire to
control the Pacific. To be mistress
of the Pacific has been her insistent
desire and aspiration, but the eagle
eye of American craftsmanship is
looking across the depths that sepa-
rate us from this interesting people
and are awake to the possibilities of
Oriental development. Our future
commercial relations must be with
the nations we are about to visit.
! Dormant for centuries their ores
have remained untouched. In in
land China where natives have died
from cold and exposure there are
! immense beds of the black diamond
sufficient to supply the worlds de-
mands for century. We are liv-
ing in the transition stage when the
commerce of our land is shifting
and when international questions
are centering where our steamer
sails. The miracle Of the resurrec-
ton of the city from which we
sailed and the Portola display--a
city built so soon upon the ashes of
a destroyed metropolis-tells of a
boundless faith in the possibilities
beyond. The storm center has left
the Mediterranean and the North
Atlantic and has drawn all eyes to
the Pacific. England and France
have steadily increasing interests
here and our own United States
neither slumbers nor sleeps in the
hum of opportunity. In the midst
of it all however, Japan is keen,
cold and active and is coming more
and more to be recognized as
world power.
From afar come pilgrims to Nee
Ca. But the Kaabas is for the Mo-
hammedan alone. Jerusalem is the
center of interest to the Jew and
the Christian. Chicago is Ameri-
can-London is English-Paris is
French. Today, however, the eyes
of the entire world are turned tow
ard Japan. Other nations have
achieved greatness by centuries of
experience. Egypt developed her
civilization from the subsoil of
countless ages Of progress. We
have grown into what we have by
natural processes, but we must point
in explanation of our development
to contact with nations and peoples
Of progressive civilizations. Japan
is the marvel of nations. Coming
out Of the woods at about the same
time as the Anglo .Saxons, she con-
tinued a hermit nation until very

control the commerce of the entire
East. Consider her amazing growth
in manufactures, her admirable
schools and universities and her gov
eminent which in less than twenty
five years has achieved what it took
Europe centuries to accomplish to
rid herself of feudalism and become
constitutional monarchy-and that
without a struggle Consider her
army which accomplished wonders
in her recent wars; her navy which
elected the admiration of the world.
Japan is a transformed nation which
in its rapidity at least has had no
parallel in history. She has had
long and brilliant past, but is to
have.a still more glorious future.
She has been we'll called the rud-
der of Asia, the child of the worlds
old age and her people the diamond
edition of humanity.
No country is blessed with such
variety of names. It's the Flowery
Kingdom, the Island Kingdom, the
Sun Rise Kingdom and the Sea Grit
Kingdom. Nippon or Dali Nippon
Great Sunrise) is perhaps the most
common name and is a corruption
of the name first applied by the
people coming from the Continent
I-Jip-pen whence our word Japan.
Here the old and new may be seen
side by side-the neglected shrines
and the crowded trains. The dis
lance is short in space and time
from the ancient tori to the
screeching steam engine, jinrikisha,
sage tram, elevated and subway
cars. Some interesting things in
history make Japan unique nation.
This insular kingdom has been I'M
conquered and governed from i'm
memorial antiquity by an unbroken
dynasty of rulers. It's territory for
the. most part has been received
without aggression or conquest and
she is nation without immigrants.
Once proud Of her seclusion she now
has France, Great Britain and the
United States for her neighbors.
So marked is the change that four
hundred school children singing in
public square as enthusiastically
as American children would sing
our national air were recently heard
to sing:
"Once there was darkness
Now there is light
Since Perry opened up the
land"
In spirit and in progress Japanis a
young and not an old nation. The
echoes of long ago are very faint.
New voices disturb the the voice of
the fathers of old. The old pride
of clan is now changed to pride of
race. Loyalty to feudal chief has
become loyalty to the Emperor as
Sovereign. Twenty-Five years ago
there was not a railroad in Japan.
Today throughout this sea girt
empire there is spread a network
of 1000 miles of we'll built paths of
steel which have stone ballast, mas
sive bridges, fine rolling stock
and well appointed stations.
Here are few things in which
the customs and habits of Japan diff
fer from ours They have no word
for bread. Their carpenters use
