successful under the leadership Of
John Hay II seems probable that tho
empire is TO be dismembered and de-
stroyed on the very threshold of Its
history as republic,
Russia and Japan have come TO an
agreement as 10 their Interests IN
Asia.
This secret arrangement which
undoubtedly covers the 'independ-
enCe" of Mongolia and the ambitions
OF Japan in where the
japanese took over the Russian
lease Of Port Arthur and the Liotang
peninsula after the war Of 19O4-6--

The cheerful silence of Japan

Japan CoVets Manchuria, which ad-
Joins COrea the peninsular kingdom
ruthlesly annexed by the japanese
Immediately after the war which they
pretended to wage for Coroan "indc-
pendcnce,'
Everything seems 10 indicate, in
deed the statement has been repeat
cdly made, that Russia has agreed TO
allow Japan TO work her viii in Man
churia in return for the nOninterfcr-
once OF the Japanese I'm Russian poll
cy elsewhere i'm China.
As IL in confirmation OF this Rus
sian-Japanese conspiracy against the
Chinese republic it is announced that
the provinces Of Kaugsi, Kiangsu,
HWangsi, Fukicn, SZcchuen Human,
NaganhWei and KwangtunE are at
tempting to separate from the rest OF
China as an independent cOnfedcr-
acy and that Japanese officers are
active everywhere stirring up and aid
ing rebellion, even taking part open
ly In the fighting in Kiangsi.
There can be little doubt that the
bloody effort of the southern rebels
to divide the republic IS backed by
the japanese.
Nor is II possible tlat Japan would
engage in such daring enterprise
without u fun understanding with
Russia.
Every day brings the outlines Of
the great Russian-Japanese plot to
dismember China into more distinct
form.
II Is not likely that the great pow
ers Of Europe win allow the breaking
up Of China TO occur without insisting
upon their share in the division Of
spoils, nor is it probable that matters
have gone thus far without some con-
fdential understanding in the Euro
pean chanCelleries on the subject.
SO long as the Chinese empire was
under the despotic rule Of the Man
chu throne the great powers agreed
10 defend its independence and terri
torial integrity.
Now that ii has become republic
II IS to be riven and plundered.
Nor has the United States, whose
future commerce depends so much on
the open door in the markets of
Asia, raised a voice of protest against
the Russian spoilation Of the great
eastern republic, the unmistakable
signal for a general dismemberment.

They have got Lamar before the

firemen, was painfully injured Sun
day evening at the time of the fire on
Front street, the heavy auto truck
passing over his right leg and badly
lacerating the flesh, though luckily
the bones of the leg were not frac-

was thrown under the machine, and
one OF the rear wheels passed over
the leg at the knee. The chains up
on the wheel tore into the flesh, but
no permanent injury will result, and
Best will be on duty again in few

PEACH CROP SELLS
AT 45 CENTS +. o. b.

Fifty thousand boxes Of peaches oil

Grants Pass district have been con-
tracted through the medium Of the
Josephine County Growers associa-
tion for shipment to the southern
markets at forty-five cents per box
4. o. b. here. Included in the sale
are the crops from the Eismann
ranch, figured at 10000 boxes, and
25 900 boxes in the Merlin district,
in which are the Martin Angle and
the A. ]. Husey crops. At least 70
per cent OF the local early peach crop
is included in the contract, and as
the buyer will take more than the
10000 boxes at the same rate 1t Is
expected that others will ship with
the association.
The contract entered into through
the association calls for fruit Of "S0s"
or larger, free from disease, scale or
split pits. The handling charges OF
the association are seven per cent,
with two cent charge for loading
on the car. As soon as the car is bill
ed the producer gets his check, doing
away with the long wait and the un-
certainty of returns. Last year the
price received was fifty cents per box
in Portland, but from that figure
there was deducted IA or 3 cents per
box for freight.

Chicago, July 30.-Eighteen
deaths and more than 100 prostra-

today from points between the At
lantic and the Rocky mountains,
which whole region is a breezeless,
sizzling furnace. In the district i'm

the suffering of the people is great
est; crops are being burned and
hundreds of cattle and other live
stock are perishing.
In Chicago the heat is not so great,
but with the thermometer standing
at Sc at noon and the humidity high,
suffering is intense enough to make
the people dread the possibility OF
still greater misery, with the prob
able rise in temperature before night.
