If Ohio Republiesns Want Him fol
Governor He Will Run.

Columbus, Ohios3 Feb. 26.-James R.
Garfield, here today, declared that the
Republicans of Ohio should be left
free to select their own candidates.
IF the people want me to be a cam
didate for governor will answer the
CALL" he said. Il have said number
Of times and I repeat it that am not
begging for an Office. have not an
nounced a candidacy and have no
move to make fn that direction, but |
believe the people of the state should
have some say as to their candidates.
If the people sAst.me to run for gov
ernor they will lind way TO let me
know 1t.
Il am mighty glad that pay dirt has
been struck ami there is chance to
get some of the state grafters. Two
years ago l told the people of Ohio
that no political party, Democratic or
Republican. could hope to win as long
as it shielded grafters. If there are
grafters in the Republican party l
want everyone of them caught and
convicted. Likewise the grafters in
the Democratic party.
Mr.. Garfield was OH his way from
the Stamina league banquet at Cin-
cinnatt and returned to Cleveland.

NO DANGER

Washington, Feb. 25.-"There Is not
the slightest likelihood of any trou-
BILE with Japan any more than with
any other country with which we
have excellent relations of friend
ship" This statement was made to-
day by Secretary Knox to. repre-
sentative of the Associated Press
when shown copies of the press dis
patches from Toxic indicating some
considerable discussion of reported
utterances Of Mr.. Shaw, former Sec
retary of the treasury, and an alleged
anti-Japanese expression in San Fran
cisco. The secretary of state ex-
pressed great surprise that notice
should be taken of such trifles. Sec
retary Knox also said:
"Mr. Shaw's speech was obviously
nothing but an argument for ship
subsidy, and what Gen. Bell said
made no reference to trouble in the
far east and was quite evidently an
ordinary argument for increased ap-
preparations for the army. '>, -, = = :.
As for the San Francisco report,
everybody knows that our immigra-
ton arrangement with Japan is
working entirely satisfactorily. II, in
spite Of this, agitators will talk, no
serious minded person should be dis
turbed.'
San Francisco, Feb. 24.-Complying
with the recommendation of the la
Dor council, the walters union today
adopted a resolution prohibiting its
members from wearing the working
button in houses where Orientals are
employed. Secretary Beck of the
council would finance general boy
cott against restaurants and cafes
employing Orientals the union could
call out its 500 men, now working
with these people.

London January s.--Sixty constitu-
encies in London and provincial towns
viii hold elections on SATURDAY, jan
uary l5 and will afford suthclent
sample OF how the rest of the town
constituencies will vote. In 1855 the
towns voted Conservative. But the
newly enfranchised county household
ers redressed the balance. There is
no reason to expect similar result In
1910. The constituencies vote on the
first day of the poll. SO they will Sc

There are nearly 100000 electors

trial community for which free trade
is essential, is expected to stand firm
in the Liberal paths.
Plan OF Campaign.
The Unionists' plan of campaign is
to minimize the significance of the
action of the peers in refusing supplies
to the crown. while the Liberals every-
where make the denunciation Of this
constitutional usurpation their chief
battle cry.
Surprising the Liberals poll ma
iority and the ministers come back
with a fresh mandate. what will hap
pen?
The ministers are pledged not to
resume responsibility until the power
OF the Lords to Interfere in finance Is
restrained by statute and their right
to vote on legislation Is destroyed.
This can only be done by an act Of
Parliament and no account can secure
royal assent until passed by the Lords.
| But will the House of Lords consent
! to offer its throat to the ,knlfee
The first question that arises is
! what will be the dimension of the

sions. will the Lords submit?
The answer Is that they certainly
Will not submit.
We shall then be deedlocked.
The King. and the King alone. can
cut the Gordian knot.
But he will certainly refuse to cree
ate 800 new hereditary peers, and 1t is
hardly less certain that he will refuse
to withhold writs and summonses to
any peer who has been previously sum
moned to the Lords, even although IN
past years he constantly treated the
royal summons with contempt.
What then?
The high-hyers of the Liberal party
are for coercing the crown by refus-
ing to continue in office until the crown
has obeyed their behests. In that case
Mr.. Balfour will take office, dissolve
the newly elected Parliament, and go
to the country with the cry. Our kins
and our Constitution"
Would Improve Position.
He might not win, but he certainly
would improve the position OF his
party.
To avoid this hopeless prospect OF
incessant turmoil. the lesser heads OF
both parties are beginning to think
out some compromise, somewhat on
the following lines:
The King should summon Joint
conference of the leaders OF both par
ties In both houses, TO which there
should be submitted a proposal to ter
inmate the deadlock by o concordat
of the following principles:
No. 1. The Lords to give up theli
right to interfere with the finance
which becomes the uncontrolled pro.
vince OF the Commons.
No. Q. The Commons to agree to give
securities against the abuse of taxing
by submitting every alleged case oi
taxing to examination by a quasi.
judicial body consisting. say. of the
Lord Chancellor, the Speaker, and q
Lord high arbitrator whose nomination
might command the Endorsement OF
both houses.
No. 9. The Lords to consent to re-
duce the hereditary element In the Sec
be empowered to create for the dura.
ton OF each Parliament sufficien,
number of Lords to that Parliament
only, or as would suffice to give the
ministers a majority In the upper
house.
No. 4. The Commons to give UP their
claim to pass any Legislation over the
veto of the upper house.
There might be notifications or mu-
tual concessions, but on some such
lines 1t is probable the present prob.
lem will be solved.
