UNDER AGREEMENT OHIO SEN
ATE REFUSED TO ACCEPT
oREENLUND BILL.
Adoption Of One Amendment Makes
Saloon Keepers Responsible For
Selling to Minors.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Columbus, O.-Under agreement the
Ohio senate refused to accept the
amendments placed in the Greeniund
liquor licensing bill by the house of
representatives. A committee on con-
ference to adjust the matters of differ
ence between both houses was appoint
ed by Lieut.. Gov. Nichols for the SEN
ate and by Speaker Charles L. Swain
for the house.
This body is expected to have but
one controversy to settle, that relating
20 the Detrick amendment prohibiting
saloons within 800 feet of a-public or
parochial schoolhouse. All of the 9TH
er changes voted by the lower house
are acceptable to the other branch,
and We're adopted by practically 4
unanimous vote after the house de-
feated the Fitzpatrick amendment to
license brewery delivery wagons.
The most important of these amend
ments was offered by Representative
J. ]. Stanley, of Portage, and provides
that minors may not be allowed to
loiter about saloons, play games there
in or be served with liquor. 1t abol-
ishes the existing statute permitting
parents or guardians to send children
to saloons with written order to Sc
cure liquor, but keeps intact the right
of the dealer to prosecute any minor
above 1S years who misrepresents his
age in order to procure drink.

LAND BILL ADOPTED
DESPITE VIOLENT PROTEST FROM
TOXIC CALIFORNIA HOUSE
PASSES ALIEN MEASURE.
CONFERENCES IN WASHINGTON
Ambassador Chinda Presents the
Views of His Government to Pres
ident WiIson-Situation Has Many
Dangerous Possibilities.

Sacramento, Cal, April 1.-THE
assembly on Tuesday afternoon by
the vote of 60 to 16 passed the anti
allen land BILL the object of which is
to make impossible the ownership of
land in California by aliens or by
those who have not declared their
intention of becoming citizens of the
United States. Four attempts were
made to amend the measure and all
were voted down.
Washington, April 17.-Reports
current in Washington for several
days that the Japanese government
was not satisfied with the attitude of
the United States toward the Cali
foria alien land law controversy
were borne out when Viscount Chin
da, the Japanese ambassador, took up
the issue with the president Tuesday.
Viscount Chinda's call at the
White house followed the receipt by
him of copies of the proposed Califor-
mia laws from Secretary of State
Bryan. The text of these laws was
cabled to Japan and it is understood
that Viscount Shinda received new
instructions that neither the laws nor
the purpose Of this government to
leave the California enactments to a
test in the courts were acceptable to
the mikado and his government.
These instructions resulted in a hur-
ried appointment with the president.
1t is pointed out here by officials
interested in the Japanese view that
II the United States Supreme court
should hold that the federal govern
ment has no right to interfere in the
affairs of the state of California,
Japan would still be obliged to hold
to the position taken by her ally
Great Britain, on the question Of Pan
ANA tolls. This position is that a
treaty enactment is paramount to a
municipal law.
Beyond this question the situation
is full of dangerous possibilities. In
the opinion of the state department
experts the attitude of Japan toward
the United States is to be expected
because of the breaking up of the six
power concert In China largely
through the Vaccinations Of Japan
and Russia.

Other fiery orators insinuated that
the questions between Japan and
America had better be settled now
and for all.
Twenty thousand persons listened
to the remarks of the tirebrands, who
apparently are engineering a campaign
to mold public opinion in Japan.
irresponsible people demanded the
most extreme measures of retaliation
by Japan. During the gathering the
singing of war songs aroused the feel

were present.

seizure Of the Philippines and Hawaii,
and at the same time denounce the
Japanese governments submissive at

On the other hand, government cir
cles are showing a friendly spirit.

KINDLY CRITICISM.

A kindly British critic of femininlty
points out that the American girl is
overathletc and that this takes away
considerably from her gracefulness
and charm. The American girl, says
this critic, walks is II she had been
trained by drillmaster. She is mus
cular, energetic and hard drilled to an
extreme. She wastes altogether too
much nervous energy in physical ex-
ercise, which is not essential to good
health. One can be healthy and not
overmuscular This gentle fault find.
ing applies to American boys even
more than to our girls. Muscular ex-
ercise is necessary and should not be
neglected. But it should not be over
done. Too many OF our young men
exercise their brains. There is a de-
cided tendency on the part of young
men in all practical walks OF life, so
TO say, in business, and not infreQuent-
ly, also. in the profession, to seek re-
taxation In physical exercise only.
Any form of physical activity is con-
sidered manlier than spending an
hour in the company OF books. 1t
would serve many a young man we'll
to realize that it could add to his char
acter some attributes which are the
very opposite OF those of the molly
cOddle to know something about the
worlds great painters or musicians, or
to have a volume of poetry on his
bookshelf.

SPANISH KING NEAR DEATH
Alfonso's Nerve Saves Him From

Madrid, April 15.--Three shots
were fred at King Alfonso Sunday
by a native of Barcelona, Rafael
Sanchez Allegro, who was immediate
ly overpowered This is the third
time in his reign the king escaped be-
ing the victim Of an anarchist at
tempt against his life.
King Alfonso owes his escape to
his own courage. quickness and
skilled horsemanship. Accompanied
by his staff, he was riding from the
Gale de Alcala returning from the
ceremony of swearing in recruits
when a man sprang from the side
walk and seized the bride of the
kings horse with one hand. pointing
a revolver with the other.
The king realizing the situation.
with lightning rapidity dug his spurs
into his horse, which reared violently.
His quickness saved his life.

There is scarcely any violation OF
the Decahogne that is more sinful
than where one gets angry at another
for simply disagreeing with him on
some matter Of doctrine or opinion. 1t
Ia sinful, because in the first place
there is no just reason for It. One
man has as good right to his opinion
rs another man has. for in neither
case can either be certain that his doc
trine Is true. There are no truths ex-
cept what are automatic. self-evident,
or what God says, and any man who
declares something different and is
mad at another because he does not
agree with him is worse than the 9th
er, even II that man was wrong in his
opinion. This doctrine teaches the
lesson of patience, eQuanimity and
kindness; and II 1t was well learned
and acted upon the world would grow
brighter and happier, and the truth
would have a great deal better chance.

ERAWWOOL
DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS ADOPTS
ONE OF CARDINAL POINTS
OF TARIFF BILL.
DEBATE WAS ACRIMONIOUS
VIII Cause Big Loss In Revenue to
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS From
Sheep Raising State Wage a Des-
perate Battle Of Opposition.

Washington, April 1S-Free raw
wool was voted Wednesday by the
Democratic caucus. This places the
tariff bill dictated by President VIII
son and Secretary Bryan out of dan
ger of material change by the house
Democrats. Underwood organized the
fight against a duty on wool and won,
100 To 42.
Free wool means loss of about
$1S,000,000 a year in revenue. The
25 per cent. cut in sugar duties will
result in a loss of $13,000,000. The
corporation tax is to be repealed and
the government will lose about $29.-
100000 a year. From these three
changes in the existing law the total
reductions in revenues will b about
$60,000,000. Underwood has estimated
the total reductions in revenue under
the new bill will be about $6S, 900, 900.
Only $8,000,00O therefore is to result
from other cuts in the tariff sched-
ules.
Representatives from the wool
growing states waged a desperate
fight for more than three hours to
have a duty of fifteen per cent. ad
valorem substituted for free wool.
This ad valorem duty was in the Un-
derwood bill before President Will
son and Bryan took a hand in fash
ioning the tariff legislation. The Dem.
ocrats opposed to free wool contended
that this duty represented the care
ful and mature consideration Of the
ways and means committee.
The amendments for a duty on wool
was offered by Martin Dies of Texas,
but Ashbrook of Ohio led the fight OF
the anti-free wool men. Before the
session of the caucus Ashbrook met
his associates in conference and
agreed on plans for the fight. While
this meeting was in progress Under
wood was with President Wilson at
the Whihe House assuring him Of rati-
fication by the caucus of the free
wool provision.
Agreement was reached when the
contest started that a vote should
be taken at six o'clock and that five
minutes should be allowed each
speaker The debate was acrimoni-
GUS and but for the cooler heads
among the older members might have
resulted in a bolt from the caucus by
some of the more anti-free wool men.

GREAT STRIKE IS ON
SUSPENSION OF WORK TIES UP
INDUSTRIES IN BELGIUM.
Refusal Of Government to Grant Man
hood Suffrage Caused
Action.

Brussels, April 16.-As planned by
the Belgoan Socialist trade unions the
vast political strike began at dawn
here Monday. The first workmen to
take part in the movement were the
night shifts of the mines and mills
throughout the country. They left
the various plants in charge of a few
caretakers, told off by the Socialist
leaders to keep the property from
reteriorating.
At least 250,O00 man laid down
their tools during the morning. There
we're numerous exceptions to the
general walkout in many districts,
however.
The strike is complete in such
places as the mining districts, but is
scarcely discernable in some local
tiles.
In Brussels itself the strike must be
looked for In order to be found. Prob
ably one-fourth of the workmen en-.
gagged in the suburban factories did
not report for work. The Socialist
committee here estimated at IL
o'clock that 10000 men had struck in
the capital.
At the great seaport OF Antwerp the
strike did not appear until late in the
day, and then only affected a part OF
the dock laborers.
Unlike most strikers, this movement
is not for an increase in wages or a
betterment OF working conditions; 1t
is in protest against the refusal of
the government to grant the workers
manhood suffrage.
Coal miners, railroad men, glass
workers, foundrymen, electricians and
dockmen had pledged themselves to
obey the summons of the Socialist
