Japan plspIays NavaI STRENGTH.


Japan's naval strength was paraded
in the review held Off Yokohama, the
first spectacular event in the reign OF
the new emperor Yoshihito reviewed
As battleships and cruisers, destroy
ers, submarines and torpedo boats
113 in line. 1t was much like Colonel
Roosevelt's review of the feet OIL Oy
ster Bay when he was president, but a
distinctly modern note was added by
the Japanese in the two hydro-aero
planes flying over the warships, as
well as The big German dirigibles that
hoated high in the air.
Among the vessels in line were three
battleships and three cruisers cap
tured from the Russians. According
to the American schedule, these would
have been marked obsolete long ago.
The prime battleships of ten years ago
are ranked no higher than cruisers
now, and only dreadnoughts are count
ed as battleships Of the line. Deterio-
ration Is the weakness of the Japan
ese navy. But new battleships cost
$lO,OO0,00O apiece, the Japanese are
groaning under heayy taxes and IL
probably win take ali the intuence Of
the Mikado, as we'll as a war scare or
so to induce the diet to appropriate
the immense sums required to carry
out Admiral saito's program Of naval
expansion.

tain the election OF the Democratic,
nominee. Il boots It not 70 IT,
whether principle be involved or
not. Il has merely the one idea and
ths.t is the election Of a Democrat no
matter how antagonistic that Demo
erat Is to the policies that have bui.t
up and made this one OF the greatest
industrial districts in the world and
made ii possible to give COOL wages
to Thousands upon thousands OF
workingmen-
AS the Telegram understands the
party it is bitterly OPP
posed to the Democratic free trade
policy and 1t diners but little from
the Republican party in Its tariff and
Incorporating policy.
It does appear that the Democratic
expounder sizes the Progressive
party up as party having no other
motive than to win elections and
hold omce. The Telegram does the
Progressive party no such Injustice
and it confidently believes that IT'S
greatest impulse viii be to aid in and
secure the election OF a man to Con-
gross who will vote to nourish and
not TO Kill the industrial features OF
the district.

81 stand by the promise made
to the people of every part of the
state. The prohibition amendment
was ratified by an Overwhelming ma
jority of the voters, and intend to
do everything in my, power to- iRe
+ that, the expressed wishes of the
voters are carried out"
This part of the answer given
by Governor Hatfield to an article
appearing first in prohibition newspaA
pers and next in other newspapers
with a desire to make capital out OF
it at the expense of Sherman G. Den
ham, whom they attempt to hold up
in bad light as conspiring with the
governor to have Fred o. Blue resign
as state tax commissioner in order
that the prohibition law might be
laxly enforced.
Governor Hatfield also says that
the story appearing in prohibition
newspapers is utterly untrue so far
as it relates to any purpose on his
part to anita gonlze the policy of the
present tax commissioner, and that
it is unfair to both Mr.. Blue and
the governor himself. If the whis-
key interests or any other interests
are trying to get rid of Mr. Blue they
have not yet gotten up their courage
to reveal their plans to Governor
Hatfield. The Yost law appears to
be in no danger of unfair treatment
at the hands of the administration.
