Mo- MoRE Mass MkErlNes.

Chicago, May 21-There was no
mass meeting of witnesses for the
International Harvester company to-
day. This was developed as succeed
ing witnesses were asked by Edwin
P. Grosvenor, representing the gov

A large number of implement
dealers from Indiana, Michigan and
Illinois testified as to the percentage
of sales of International Harvester
company machines as compared with
other makes.

Japan Fears American Ideas.

Toxic, May 21.--The Toxic for
eign office has received and is study
ing the reply Of the United States
government to its protest in regard
to the California land ownership leg
islation. 1t declares that by agree
ment with Washington, the document
will not be made public. The Off
cials make no comment on the sub
ject and no statement as to whether
it is satisfactory or not.
The japanese public apparently is
waiting for information before ex-
pressing its opinion on the American
reply, IN the meantime the press re
iterates that the question goe deep
er than the ownership Of land OF tie
making Of treaties and that it is rae
ial discrimination which must be
wiped out by mutual education and
understanding and the fusion Of
ideas. Lichiro ToIkutomi. editor Of
the Kokumin shimbun, writes in an
article today:
"The patriotism and loyalty Of Jap
an should join forces with the liber-
ality Of America BY this means the
pacific would nobly Justify its name"
On the other hand, much interest -
attached to the formation Of patri-
otto society by Count shiganori Uesu
gi and other scholars for the main
tenance Of Japanese Individually
The founders declare that some Of the
Japanese are intoxicated with west
/ ern civilization to such an extent That
they are likely to forget their na-
tionality and introduce dangerous
thoughts into the minds Of the peo-
pie and interpret patriotism n dif-
ferent form from that PREVAILING
among their ancestors.

Atteaux, the witness said, gave him

Moon Rivers,

The 80 called craters, ring mountains
and empty sea beds Of the moon are
not the only interesting phenOmena
which our satellite presents to the
view. There are on many parts of the
moons surface long, narrow lines call
cd "rfils," evidently much below the
general level Of the ground some Of
them comparable In breadth and depth
to the great canyons of our western
country. Certain astronomers have
been disposed to regard these rills as
cracks and rents In the crust Of the
moon, but others have adopted the sug-
gestion, made long ago, that they are
river channels. It may be remarked
Of these ancient lunar river channels.
II such they really are, that their wider
ends always terminate In pear shaped
hollows like little craters, and this end
is nearly always higher than the other,
10 that If the craters were once lakes
their waters must have flowed out into
the rivers instead Of the waters Of the
rivers emptying into the lakes.-Har-

RACIAL iNTERMIxrURE.

nASIAI IN IEHMINTUH
A recent announcement on racial
intermixture says:
There Is as much an American
type to-day as there is an English
type or a French type. The popula-
ton of the United States is no more
mixed than any Of the great Euro
pean nations, with the possible ex.
ception of the Scandinavian Nor.
way and Sweden.
Every race that ever amounted to
anything was always mixed and
therefore always progressing. Any
nation which shuts itself up and re-
ceiyes nothing from the outside world
must perforce degenerate.
When many races meet the tend.
ency Is for the community as q whole
to shed off the detects and retain
the good qualities Of its component
parts.

correctly. In IS per cent. Of the cases

IN an article recently puDilshed IN

Henry w. Wilbur gives the following
a. some Of the reasons why the colored
people are leaving the rural districts
Of the south in such large numbera
Me-. Wilbur says: -
Whatever may be thought about
some Of the special pleading at the
Lenten meeting In Holy Trinity church
the other day the opinion expressed
that the Negroes should remain In the
south and mainly on the son Ii sound.
But the matter needs some explanation
and will have to be more carefully stud
fed than II has been before the point
Of real eiucidation Is reached.
At the present time there Is an exo-
dus Of Negroes from the rural districts
along two lines Of outfet-nrst. from
the agricultural districts Of Dixie TO
the southern cities, and, second. from
corresponding sections to the already
congested commercial centers IN the
north.
The natural question Is. Why should
there be any exodus at all? II must
be remembered. however. that the Ne
gro emigrates In. obedience to the same
motives which took the Israelitss out
Of Egypt and brought the Puritans and
Quakers to America. That motive, was

that they are narrowing their lands
