WORLD PEACE 4 STUDY.

That is an encouraging part of the
movement for world peace which con-
templates the establishment OF peace
chairs" in various universities
Efforts are being made in st. Louis
now 10 found at least lecture course,
and possibly other courses, to study
problems connected with world
peace.
If world peace is ever to come, it
must be through a process of educa-
ton. The St Louis plan seems to be
getting down to fundamentals in solv-
ing the peace problem. The intro
duction of such courses into colleges
can hardly fail to be great aid in
bringing about international friendli-
ness.

year men from all over the United
States will speak on various phases
OF journalism. Not only will jour-

but for everyone. The more the stu
dents from other divisions of the Uni

4 MISCONCEPTION OF CONGRESS.

There is a misconception regarding
he standing of our National Legisla-
ure. As matter of fact Congress
S a much more honest, sincere and
lble body of officials than the public
generally has been led to believe.
There are several reasons for this
popular misunderstanding. The strong
light of publicity is continually di-
'ected upon the members of Congress.
Practically every congressional dis
rict is represented by newspaper men
Who live in the capital and make
their business to watch the record
,f the district representative and the
states senators. Scarcely a move es-
apes these vigilant newspaper men.
And the misdeeds are sure to receive
Is much attention as the good deeds.
Certainly the ethical standard of
congress is higher than that of most
If our state legislatures. Direct brib-
,ry is practically unknown in Wash
ngton these days and corrupt acts
ire seriously condemned. The con-
'picuous offenders receive too much
publicity.
The average congressman is an
ionest, Woodworking representative
If his electorate and of the country
Is whole. Possibly We hear too
much of the undeserving and too lit
lie OF the deserving. Undoubtedly the
lew standard of political thought
which has arisen among the elector-
tie has found its way into the capitol
1t Washington.

Calls Personally on President Wilson Cabinet Will Take it Up
 Today.

Washington, June 5.-Viscount Chinda, the Japanese ambassador, submitted the grievances of Japan be- fore President Wilson personally in an hours conference this afternoon at the White House.
 It became known in less than an hour before the call of the ambassa- dor at the White House that Japan had suggested a new proposition" :" That proposition is. substantially, that the federal government shall make some official declaration which shall be a recognition of the contention of Japan as to her place among nations and the equality of her citizens with the citizens of the leading powers of the world.
 This new and direct attitude of Japan was described by the highest officials here as very interesting" It is recognized that the proposition or virtual demand, is loaded with trouble
  spect to the states of California and Arizona
 It was admitted frankly that an ac- quiesance by the federal government in this proposition would carry with it a repudiation of the opinions and the votes of the people of California and Arizona as expressed in their land laws, which have been described by Japan as offensive to the people and government of Japan.
 It was admitted with equal frank ness by officials after the conference between the Japanese ambassador and the president. that no one could tell what answer the United States could make to the plain, categorical inquiry of Japan.
 All the new phases of the situation, it's latest and most dangerous phase is to be handled tomorrow by the cab inet.

Among other things Col. Brundidge said
 "A better feeling exists today ..e tween capital and the man who earns his living by the sweat of nis bl>,v than ever before in the history of the country, and this tendency is upward and not backward to a better under standing between the two.
 ''rhe public school system of this state has been the greatest factor i,, bringing about this harmony of feel ing. One of my hobbies is the public schools because it is here that W,u, child and mine lays '.he foundation for his future education. If l am elected your governor I shall never let an opportunity pass to do what l can in the upbuilding and better ment of our public school sys,e,,.. And the dny is coming when capital and labor, and that day no afar off. when these two great forces will be in perfect accord.
 'I was in the Congress of the United States for 12 years and I challenge the closest scrutiny of my record and in it will never be found a single vote of mine against the ln- teres't of the working man. If I am elected your governor. and I have every assurance that l will be, no man, however humble he may be, need feel any uneasiness or nervousness in approaching me upon ally L.a.rt or importance and interest to the peo- pie of the state. When l am elected governor, l want you to come to see me, walk right on in my office and we'll shake hands and get acquainted with each other.'
 Col. Brundidge was introduced by Attorney w. B. Sorrells who said that he was nOi at the shops to tell the employees how to vote but that he was proud of the opportunity and the honor to introduce Col. Brundidge as candidate for governor. He said that Col. B andidge was a plain, blunt, brainy man, free from dema- goguery and during the twelve years that he was in Congress he was re- cognized as one of the brainiest men of the south, and he was glad that an opportunity was afforded to get a man for governor who was free of frills and foolishness.

Conway, June 5.-The case of Lou vida Sims, the first of the seven de- fendants to be tried in the series of white slave cases, went to the jury yesterday afternoon at 3:15. After an hours deliberation the jury returned a verdict of guilty and assessed the punishment at IA years in the peni- tentiary. The state introduced only two witnesses and brought their side of the case to a close at ii o'clock. Gertie Holingshead, the prosecuting witness, was on the stand for about 30 minutes and was followed by Dr. J. E. McMahan, who testified as to physi- cal examination he made of the girl.

Men Higher Up Are Concerned in Plot and Police Hesitate to
 Take Action.

London, June "A gigantic con- spiracy to arm the Ulster Unionists fer the purpose of resisting the com ing home rule regime in Ireland has Yard detectives. When the news be- came known here it created a sensa- tion, especially as the discovery of the plot follows closely on the seizure of 12 tons of rifles and ammunition at Belfast on Monday.
 It is expected that another consign- ment will be seized in the near future as the police claim they have discov- cred the factory in London where the arms were made or at least as sembled and they state that over 40 tons of arms and ammunition are now stored there
 The method used by the conspira- tors in transferring the guns was to ship them to Manchester in motor busses and from there ship them by rail under the description of electri- cal supplies. The police are now keeping a strict watch on the arsenal but the conspirators are lying low.
 The police hesitate to take any de- cided action owing to the fact that many peers, members of Parliment and prominent army officers, are now r fo hn it, hn rN1n fn resist home rule in Ireland
