China TAKES

Picking, China, Oct. 3.--China took
another forward step today when al
noon the newly constituted imperial
senate was opened by Regent Prince
Chun. There was little or no cere.

In a brief address Prince Chun stat

manded the senators to labor for this
contamination.
A parliamentary building of ample
dimensions will be constructed, but
pending it's completion the sessions
will be conducted in the rather mar
row quarters of the law college.
The imperial senate is expected to
demonstrate the fitness of the Chinese
to help rule themselves, and SO pre-
pare the way for representative gov

ing two speeches each a day, James
Gray the democratic nominee, and
Adolph o. Eberhart, the republican
candidate to succeed himself as gov

strenuous and as heated a campaign
in Minnesota as has ever taken place
in the state.
During the last two weeks these OPP
posing candidates have been making
the rounds of county fairs, often
speaking from the same platform on
nom partisan subjects. James Gray
formally launched his campaign at
Fergus Falls, Sept. "a, while Governor
Eberhart makes his keynote speech in
his home town at Mankato, Oct. 4.
In the three previous campaigns in
