Japan MAY Join
IN WIDE CONFLICT
Treaty Binds Her to Aid Eng
land in Case Of Far -,
Eastern Fighting.
SEVERAL POWERS HAVE
SHIPS IN THE ORIENT
These May Fire on British Flag if
War Becomes Gen
eral.

Diplomats in Washington are ex-
pressing the opinion today that there
is a possibility that Japan will become
involved in the threatened war in Eu-
rope should actual conflict between
other ma tions than Austria and Servia
take place.
This possibility comes about by rea-
son of the fact that Japan is England S
ally, under a treaty signed in 1905 and
renewed in 1911. It provides that the
two COUNTRIES shall support each other
IN the event of an attack or aggressive
action against either In eastern Asia
or India by another power
The possibility of Japan's being
drawn into any war which might in
volve Great Britain. it is stated. hinges
entirely upon naval developments In
the far east, where today's dispatches
report Great Britain as actively en-
gagged in dismantling her small Chi
nese river gunboats and in sending
their crews to the larger warships In
the far east.
There have been rumors of secret
clauses in the treaty between Great
Britain and Japan, extending the scope
Of the conventions, and making them
apply to hostiliues conducted against
either power outside OF the Tar east, out
the existence of such extra provisions Is
stated at the State Department and al
the japanese embassy here to be unveri-
fed.
Many Ships In Far East.
Nevertheless, in the waters of the far
east there are many vessels Of European
powers which might be led to attack Brit
ish ships II the threatened general war
should come. These ships are engaged
in looking after the interests of their
citizens resident in China, Japan and
Korea.
Just as the first blow in the naval war
between the United States and Spain in
1898 was Unexpectedly struck in the far
away Philippines. it is suggested the first
clash between European powers might oc-
cur in the China sea. And in case the
British fleet there should find itself en-
gagged in hostilities with German. Aus
trian and Italian vessels. many believe
Japan would be called upon to aid her
ally. .s

ST. Paul. April 15-All arrange
ments have been practically complet-
ed for the great meetings of the Ma
tional Education Association which
will be held in this city July Attn to
11th next The teachers of the
Northwest are very enthusiastic over
this meeting and there is every pro-
liability that thousands of them will
attend the sessions of the body which
numbers among it's members most Of
the we'll known educators of the
country.
In the past few years there has
been a great change in the work OF
this association and today there is be-
ing made every possible effort to in
tereslt the parents as we'll as the
teachers in the newer education.
More and more of the work Of the
annual sessions of the association
has been given over to interesting
parents in what is really to them one
| of the most important matters that
they could study. for there is no sub
| iect that could possibly be more i'm
portant to parents than the propel
i training of their children For this
reason thousands of parents through
ont the Northwest have already az
ranged to attend the sessions OF rhe
association.

There will also be largely increased

WILL PLANT SEEDLINGS.
Minnesota State Forestry Association
viii Plant t,oOoooo This Spring.

The following is an extract from d
letter written by Ernest o. BuIler,
seer etary Of the Minnesota State For
estry association. The association
will plant 100000 pine seedlings as
soon as the weather conditions will
permit.
Experiments have been carried on
at ClOquet for the last four years in
the raising OF pine seedlings. and the
results have been so satisfactory that
success is assured.
This is the first extensive venture
at reforestation ever attempted IN
Minnesota, and if the forestry amend
meDt, which will be submitted to the
people next November, passes. refor-
esration will be conducted ON large
scale.
The seedlings will be planted on
cu.-oyer and burned-oyer soils in Itas-
ca park, Burnside state forest and
Pilisbury state forest The trees
Will be planted / 900 to the acre.
AT the end of Is years, the trees
will have attained a height of 20
feet. with a diameter breast high oi
four inches. At this age they viii
have to be thiuned and the trees
thinued out can be used as cordwoot
or tagging in the mines, and from
this time on a continual revenue cal
be obtained In so years, the seed
lings will have attained saw-Nog size.
Reforestation of lands too rock.
and hilIy for farming has passed th
experimental stage. 1t is a payinE
business proposition, and. as in ouhe
states. Minnesota will sooner or late
realize this fact.

SHORT CUTS.

Short cuts are alright when a per-
son is in a hurry, but are they worth
while? How many of our citizens,
who can not afford to walk on the
sidewalks instead of cutting across
lots? The actual amount of time
saved amounts to very little and the
additional energy exerted in taking
the few additional steps will harm NO
one. We are sure that those who SD
rhoughtlessly use the short cut paths
would strenuously object to anyone
walking across their own property
These paths in many places deface
what otherwise could be beautiful
lawns and are the ear marks OF 9
village town Warren is no longer

not very beautiful but even 50, THEY
are not as hideous as the short GU
paths. Walk on the sidewalk
