WE CAN SOON BUY
STAMPS BY THE MILE

Washington, D. c., Jan. Postage
stamps can soon be bought by the
mile-strip. plate printing press
has been invented which prints STAMP 5
on a continuous roll Of paper. Fur
ther than that, the same press is apt
to reTolutionize printing and engraved
plates; it is regarded as bearing the
same relation to the development Of
the science of plate printing that the
Mergenthaler linotype machine bears
to type composition.
This plate printing press eliminates
% processes in the present method OF
printing postage stamps; the only use
so far, to which il has been applied
On an annual bill of half a million
dollars for printing postage stamps,
the bureau OF engraving and print
ing is anticipating a saving Of s275, 200

this device, a 81 percent decrease.

Members Of Atlanta's Old Guard,

mission of peace in the East, where
two carloads OF Southern flowers

wonderful He said:
President Wilson in Washington
met the Old Guard in person and took
them to the White House. In New
York two dinners were given. We
were on the front pages of the news
papers all the time. Mayor Gaynor
Of New York welcomed Us to the city
Deeds to the city of Boston were
made out and given to us. The New
Haven Grays entertained us, and in
Philadelphia there was a big military
parade. There a downpour of rain
caused the parade to disband. But
the Old Guard never broke ranks, and
marched alone to the strains of Dixie"
to the pier, where we took a boat
There were thousands on hand to bid
us farewell"
Colonel Smith announced that next
year the Guards probably would go
TO Europe.

NEW PROTEST Of
JAPS 'STUMPS'
CABINET
0rientals Demand Recognition on
Equal Basis-Refuse to Go
to California Courts.

WASHINGTON. June with the
text of the second Japanese protest
against the California alien land law
before them, administration officials
to-day were at a loss for a solution
for the latest phase of the Oriental
question.
The situation at present is this:
Japan has filed two protests against
the Webb law, the second list Of OBJ
jections being practically a repetition
of the first.
Fear Giving offense.
The United States having answered
the first protest about a month ago,
is now unable to find terms in which
to answer the second unless IT fol-
lows the example Of the Toxic Gov
eminent and repeats it's stand which
was made clear in Secretary Bryans
last reply.
This is deemed inexpedient and i'm
polite because the emphatic terms Of
the United States reply. il reiterated,
might be taken as a subject for Of
Tense in Japan.
While the text Of the second Jap
anese protest has not been made pub
lie. it is known that its primary fea-
ture is a demand for the United
States Government to take the mat
ter to the courts, coupled with firm
declaration that Japan does not think
IL -unsonant with her dignity to take
IT, issue to the California courts
5ryan's Plea Ignored.
The Toxic Government declares
that il Is dealing with the United
States and not with California, and
the States right doctrine, carefully
explained in Secretary Bryan's reply,
Is ignored in the latest protest, which
does not even require naturalization.
but demands recognition on an equal
ba sis by granting the Japanese the
right 20 hold land.
II Is impossible for the Unite j
States to grant the Japanes request.
II is not considered polite 20 state
this in an official document, therefore
the answering Of the latest japanese
protest will be a most delicate diplo-
matte problem,
