view OF the outlook in America for the
immediate future. He says:
president Wilson is a good fellow
and a charming man personally but
the fact is America is commercial
nation. and its future lies along COM
mercial lines. The country needs a
man experienced in affairs Of the head
Of the government, whereas Woodrow
Wilson is academic and impractical.
He has lovely dreams and beautiful
thoughts, and expresses both in charm
ing language, but. all that does not
make a practica government for a
great nation TO do business under, and
the result is that with everything in
favor OF unbounded prosperity and n
great boom the people are all afraid OF
the future. and are waiting, waiting 10
zee what is going 10 happen
Merchants and business men are
drawing in their horns. investors are
throwing overheard their holdings and
are afraid 10 take on new commit
ments, and the whole country is in n
state OF silent panic. l hear great
deal Of talk TO the effect that given
bumper crops everything viii be all
tight. but I have seen some mighty
bad times with bumper crops. II must
be borne in mind that II takes money TO
move crops. and with financiers all
frightened who is going 10 supply the
money to move the crops? No. sir ]

don't know what is going TO happen
and are not looking for new business or
new opportunities OF investment put
Just trying 10 hold on to what they
have got, and there is no telling when
conditions will improve.
Nobody can foresee return OF the
prosperity that has slipped away.
President Wilson Is charming fellow

Washington. June 3.-In corollary 10
the California Japanese situation. &,
became known to-day that tho Depart
ment Of state has received protests
against the antl-alien land ownership
law passed 10y tho Arizona Legislature,
and japan IS believed % be one - the
compliments. The Secretary Of state
would not diyulge details aside from
admitting that informal protests had
been received
The deduction drawn by those IA
miliar with the facts is that Japan in
tends To take every advantage offered
to prove that the commercial treaty Of
1911 has been violated. The Arizona
law is regarded as being even more di'-
crlminatorv than the Bloodgool
bill, and IN that reason, will afford A
greater scope for test Of the contel-
ton that the treaty has been contra
vened.
Secretary BRYAN qualities his admis-
sions concerning the objections TO the
Arizona act 10y saying that the repre-
sensations thus far made arc Of an in
formal character or partaklng NJ the
nature Of inquiries, but on the highest
authority il is known that a fight may
be made by Japan against the legis-
lation. While the latest developments
in snti-alien land ownership legislation
are ostensibly viewed with little con
Germ. the fact remains that nations af-
fected by the Objectionable laws will
protest to the limit and that Japan
will probably take the lead in the con-
troversy.
Negotiations between the United
States and Japan over the California
law are likely 10 reach an important
stage this week, as the rejoinder 10

in Arizona will be submitted II the
representations already made are lot

No delay in the negotiations will be
accustomed by the fact that the Calf
fornia law does not become effective
until the latter part OF August. japan
has in view the fact that the arbitra-
tion convention Of 1908 expires on Au-

For instance, the majority OF
New Workers suppose that Cor

lief.
What if those New Workers
who will buy prizes for athletic
events this summer knew this
idea was Just a rnyth-tl1at they
could buy a GORHAM CUP as
low as $50
Why, the Gorham factories
here in New York and up at
Providence, with their army Of
$500 men, would have to run
overtime.
These trophy committees
would all rather have Gorhan1

apologies never have to be made
for them. Any golfer, yachts

or tennis player is glad to carry
one Of these trophies home.
The only reason more athletic
and sporting contests do not have
Gorham trophies for prizes is
this legend natural under the
circumstances that they cost
more.
If YOU happen TO be member
OF a trophy committee OF any
club. do not take tradition for
granted-investigate.
You'll find that YOU can buy
a Gorham loving cup at any
price YOU like from s. to

ready. That is, unless YOU want
a cup or trophy OF some special
design. Then, Gorham's will at
tend to that-these special de-
signs are a Gorham speciality. =
The sizes OF the cups are as
numerous as the prices. They
begin at 4 inches and work up

height. They hold from one
ounce to sixteen pints. And
they're in all styles, plain, en-

The decoration is emblematic

ivy, friendship and affection; bay

Is II any wonder that clubs

the Gorham prizes' To an

adds character and incentive to a

OF course, YOU are not con-

I realized that it was a serious
proposition to live an illegal married
life of mOnOgamy. so l made a plan
to escape. 1 had heard that there
were countries outside of Tibet where
a woman could be married legally to
one husband. This appealed to me,
and l revealed the secret to my hus-
band. As he loved me, he consented
to share my fate, and thus one night
we left the State NJ -KuO and finally,
after a hard journey of weeks,
reached Persia. Here We learned that
this was a country of poIygamy,

Our artists in sculpture, printing of

of man to a woman. But I assure
you there is nothing of that kind in
