Daddy : Bedtime
~. How the
Kitty Found
His Pur.

"w AZ YHATFare you going to tell IS tonight, daddyT' cried Evelyn as she
AAWH reached daddys knee first in the race with Jack to hear the even
ing story" Make it different again, please"
~ We'll grille ] like that! exclaimed daddy, pretending to be
very much hurt Aren't they all diferentT'
different than others"
"You shall be rewarded, Miss Mufet" said daddy and told his story.
"Kitdes were not always as they are now, you know, my dears, because
there were o nice houses with warmf fires for them to lie beside and get fat
and become very lazy. People then used to live in caves and eat things
raw. for 1t was. before they learned to make fires by rubbing dry sticks to-
gether. Some day l must tell you about that but that will be another story.
THE Ettes used to run wild, just like the people, and they wereSnot pets
because in those days nobody petted anything, it was too hard to make q hv-
ing. The poor Htts had hard work to get along, for they were about the lit
TEST things there were, and everybody and everything picked on them.
Nov, you know. children. that when a kitty purs 1T is a sign that 1T is
happy and contented. But the kithes had no pur in those days. They could
only new because they were so mournfu, and life was so hard for them that
they mewed a great deal, so between mewfng when they were mournful and
yowhng when they were fighting they annoyed the cave people a great deal
and had tt dodge a great many rocks that the cave people threw at them.
But there vas a kitty whose name wa NogH, and he changed all this
1t was by accident. Nogi was a very mournful cat with a sad life, and he
mewed louder than the other kithes' 81 that he wal a nuisance, and the cave
being chased, and he just dropped down in the forest all petered out and he
smened something right under him.. And he smeled and shifted and smeled,
and then he began to roll and roll and roll, and then oil of a sudden ne found
his pur, and he purred and purred and pured, and the other Hthes heard him
purrng. and they came running, and they all shifted and rolled and purred'
too, and the cave children heard the purrfng that was like thunder, and they
came running, and then they laughed and laughed and rugged the kithes of to
their caves for pets and some Of the green stuff, too. the stuff that made them

81 can't see why people from the
east don't flock out here to occupy this
splendid farming and in the two Da-
kotas,'' was the statement made by
Mrs. Westgard, wife of the man who
heads the party of good roads boost
esrs, that spent last night IN Fargo.
y Mrs. Westgard has crossed the con-
tinent six times by automobile and
has covered thousands Of miles on side
trips, having accompanied her hus-
band on almost all of his hundreds Of
road finding trips. Mrs. Westgard is
an exceptional woman, as was clearly
shown by her discussions of many
topics while visiting with Fargo peo-
pie during her short stay here, and
the thing that seemed to impress her
most, in his part of her trip. vas the
remarkable opportunity in the two
Dakotas.
II cannot see why people will go to
the dry districts of the southwest,
where they have a constant fight to
raise crops, and must resort to the
dry farming methods, when they can
get the kind of land you have in North
Dakota in abundance" she remarked.
1t was a spontaneous tribute and,
coming from a resident Of New York
city who has no personal interests to
boost, and from one Of the greatest
travellers in this nation of Travelled
people, it carries unusual significance.

Public meetings were held and almost.
every means Of political publicity uti-
lized to arouse the voters Of the urgen-i
.cy Of good government. The election
continued for three days, at the end
of which the reformists had captur-I
ed all but twenty-one Of the seventy
five seats in the assembly. Morikubo,
the ousted leader, ~thereupon invited
his fellow victims to a meeting at.
which it voted to dissolve the ~associa-
ton,
The new organization now In power
is known as the Municipal Government
Club. They are not content with re-
forming municipal politics alone, how
ever, and have already begun a vigor-
Gus campaign to establish themselves
in the national house of representa-
tives, where the Seiyukai, or conserva-
tive party, will be the object of it's at
tack. The Seiyukai has a large ma
jority in the diet, and since it was
linked with the now defeated Tokiwa-
kai, it appears to be In danger of losing
its power.
The present Okurna cabinet lis backed
by groups hostile to the Seiyukai. If
unable to carry through his Program
in the fact of an opposing majority,
Count Okuraa would be likely to dis
solve the diet and give the people an
opportunity ~toeregister their will at a
new election.
An interesting phase of the suffrage
, question was seen in the recent NUM-
cipa1- elections. The suffrage lis very
restricted, there being three classes Of
voters, classified according to the
amount of tax they pay.
Taking the city as a whole, about
one householder In thirteen has a vote.
Each grade of voters elects twenty
ftve assemblymen. The voters of the
first grade number only 1857. The
second category has 6.136 electors. The
great majority of voters, namely 49,
948, out of the total Of 57,271, are
found in the third grade. TO be quail
fed for this grade the citizen must
| pay a land tax or else an imperial tax
to the amount Of 2 yen yearly.
The election of the assemblynen of
the third grade was regarded as most

Issues Statement
on Colombian Treaty

Washington, July S1.-A second for
NAL statement, in defense of the pro-
posed Colombian treaty was issued
last night by Secretary Bryan. With
out mentioning Colonel Roosevelt, Mr..
Bryan replied to arguments advanced
by the former president in his attacks
upon the administrators proposal to
Jay Colombia SIS, 000, 900 in settlement
of claims growing out of the separa-
ton of Panama and acquisition of the
canal zon by the United States.
Reiterattng his declaration that in
considering the treaty it is not neces-
sary to examine into the merits Of the
controversy over the action of the
United States in 1908, the secretary
urged that even If the United States
in acquiring the canal zone was exer-
cising a right of eminent domain, it
was not relieved Of liability for actual
damages resulting to Colombia,
Colonel Roosevelt recently asked the
senate foreign resolutions committee
to hear a statement from him before
reporting the pending treaty. Chair
mar Stone replied that if the com
mittee decided to pass upon the con-
vention at. this session it would be
glad to hear from the, colonel, but the
general understanding is that the
matter will go over until December.
Secretary Bryan's statement fol-
lows:
IN considering the treaty with Co.
lombia, laid before the senate for rati-
f1cation, it is not necessary to examine
into the merits of the controversy re-
lating to the action of the United
States in 1908. The present treaty
deals with the. situation as it presents
itself today, and it is fully justified, no
matter what theory one may adopt as
to the course pursued by our nation
in connection with the separation Of
Panama from Colombia It is con-
tended by some that the action taken
by the United States was based upon
the necessities of the case. and those
necessities as stated by those who
take this position are, that Colombia
was not able to build the canal herself
and was not willing to sell to the
United States p o reasonable terms
the right to build the canal.
Those who take this position put
the United States in the attitude of
exercising the right of eminent do
main in the interests of the worlds
commerce.: but the exercise of the
right of eminent domain does not re-
lieve those who exercise it of liability
for actual damages suffered. Take,
| for illustration, the ~condemning of a
| block of ground for a public building,

POLITICAL
MACHINE KILLED

Toxic, July 31.-The political ma
chine which for ten years has dominat"
ed municipal government in Toxic was
demolished by the reformers at the
recent municipal elections. So seri-
GUS was the reverse that the organiza-
ton, which was known as the Tokl-
wakai, and which a been called
"Tokio's Tammany," has been dissolv-
ed altogether.
The good government party regards
the overthrow of the organization as a
signal victory, and indicative of the
general reform movement which is
sweeping over Japan in all branches
CT political life. For the last ten years
they had fought to eliminate the Toki-
wakai majority in the municipal as
sembly, but each successive attempt
met with failure, until this year they
have not only removed the objection !
able majority but also defeated It's

nd. The charges were similar to
those which have characterized so
many municipal ~upheavals in America
harmful patronage, corruption in the
distribution of contracts for public
works and general graft.
The success this year was due large
ly to the younger element, which was
organized into an anti-machine body.

the government at it's market value,
but that one of the lot owners, whose
lot is necessary to the erection of the
building, asks more than the land is
worth. The government proceeds to
condemn the property, but it does not
attempt to escape from the payment
of what the land is actually worth,
and the actual value of the property is
not reduced. one dollar by any effort
that the owner MAJ make to obtain
for 1t more than it is worth. ..-..a
IF 1t is contended that the price Of
fered by the United States prior to
Panama's separation was a reasonable
one, n that Colombia ought to have
accepted it, that valuation cannot be
reduced merely because Colombia was
not willing TO accept the offer. The
price then offered was approximately
ST., SOC, 900 ($10, 900, 900 cash and $780,
900 a year for 100 years, which should
be. capitalized at $500, 000). But when
this price was offered it was under
stood that Colombia would retain the
state of Panama and have the advan-
tages to be derived from proximity to
the canal. What justice or fairness
can there be in the proposition that,
Colombia, having refused to accept d
fair price, is not entitled to any dam
ages at all? The payment Of the $25,-
900, 900 provided for in the treaty now
before the senate is only a reasonable
compensation for damages actually
suffered-damages that ought to be
paid, no matter what theory one
adopts in regard to the action of the
United States or the action of Colom-
bia in 1908. The above argument is
based upon the theory adopted by
those who say Colombia was entirely
in the wrong in refusing to accept the
offer made by the United States, but 1t
must be remembered that this theory
is disputed by the people of Colombia.
who defended the position their gov
eminent then took and who have ever
since asked that the controversy be
a~rbitrated by some impartial tribunal.
"The reopening at this time of the
original controversy is not only neces-
sary, but Objectionable, first, because
it diverts attention from the present
situation with which we have to deal;
and, second, because 1t would revive
both here and in Colombia. the very
feeling of unfriendliness which it is
desirable to allay. The treaty is in
tended to restore friendship and good
will between these nations, and this
can be done by dealing with the stu
alton as 1T now presents itself without
renewing the discussion as to the
merits of the positions originally ak
