TOUR BUREAU AIDS TRAVEL
American Automobile As sociation Now Complies Complete Information for Transcontinental Tourists for 1915

With the exception of such slight
 Improvements as may be made dur
 ing the winter months, the principal
 transcontinental routes are now in .
 approximately the shape they will be
 at the beginning of the heavy travel
 to the Pacific coast eXpositions early
 next year. At least no new projects can be undertaken and finished be- fore this heavy travel begins. Late reports reaching the A. A. A touring information board, New York and Washington. from all quarters, indicate that the road improvements on the principal cross country lines during 1914 have been underestimat- cd rather than overestimated. This is particularly the case on the wes- tern end of the Northwest Traii''
 between Montana and Seattle. es-
 recially since the former severe grade to maximum of per cent. The cities, counties and towns on the line of the Lincoln highway in the far west have also made very great improvements in order to bring that route to as good condition as possible for 1915 touring. Both he Trail to Sunset" and it's principal alternate, the Santa Fe-Grand Can
 yonN Needles highway, have mot lag ged behind the others; and beginning
 next year the tourist has two com plete options between AlbuquerqUc | and Southern California, both of l which can be travelled with comfort and safety.
 While unfortunately some parts oi
 the ''all-southern route" are yet in
 poor shape, that line as a whole mas been greatly improved during 1914 and will not present very serious difficulties to tourists who decide to go leisurely across that way in 1915 The A. A. A. touring board has the latest information on all these lines
 and is prepared to confer with tour | ists on the routes best suited for their particular purpose.
 Maps and specific information car | be had either at National Headquar- ters, 437 Fifth avenue, New York. or National Capital Headquarters, Riggs | building, Washington, D. C. Parties
 contemplating cross country trips ir | the spring are especially invited tc | take up these subjects with the tour | ing board during the winter months
 which is often advantageous as com pared with waiting until the actua
 opening of the touring season next l year.

CALIFORNIAN JlNGoES MUST NOT
 PROVOKE WAR

Japan became exceedingly nervous when, after it's ultimatum to Germany had been delivered, American criticism of Japanese aggression reached Nip pon. So wrought up was the populace that reports of the departure of the American battleship fleet for the Far East, rumors of contemplated armed support for Germany, found widespread credence. It required energetic, reas- suring denials by the Japanese govern ment to allay the fears of the populace And after the Japanese occupation of Jaluit and of the Carolines the Japan csc press resented even the very tactful unofficial American inquiries regarding the intentions of Japan in the South Pacific
 The domestic affairs of Japan are net in an ideal condition. High taxes, the naval graft scandals, the pro- longed contest between the aristocracy and the masses, unsatisfactory indus trial conditions, disastrous earthquakes and crop failures in parts of the em- pire have contributed to the restless ness of the people. Japan is not in a placid mood. And it distrusts the United States. It has shown that it is ready to believe the widest rumors concerning American intentions. Yet Japan and especially Premier Okuma. at heart sincerely desire to remain on friendly terms with the United States
 Out of such mutual distrust and sus- picion the European war was born; it behooves the United Staets to act with the greatest circumspection in it's deal ings with the nervous Japanese.
 With special force does this admoni- = ton apply to California Owing to a lack of support, Tveitmoe's Asiatic Ex- clusion League has gone out of busi- ness. The death of the league proves definitely that there is no popular de- mand whatsoever for further anti Japanese measures. The anti-alien land law has accomplished it's purpose: no new land purchases are being made by Japanese. The small amount of land now being held by them will grad ually be restored to white ownership CT else descend to the American born Japanese who have the full rights of citizenship

ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcH1
 WASHINGTON, Nov 15.-Mexican dispatches leave officials doubtful as to what is really happening. A con- sular dispatch announced that Cutter reg, who was named as provisional president by the Aguas Calientes con- vention. yesterday demanded Car ranza's retirement as first chief Of the army within twenty -four hours.
 Consul Silliman, the presidents per sonal representative at Mexico City, telegraphed that hope was bright for a peaceful settlement. Later advices from Aguas Calientes said Gutierrez informed Carranza that unless he re- ceived a definite answer by Sunday night general movement against him would be ordered.

NEXT BORDERLAND RACE WILL DRAW A
 HEAVY ENTRY LIST

races just passing into history will re- peat.
 One of the most interesting figures in the ring will be young George Leon- ard, driver of the Buick No. in the Fl Paso race. Leonard's car is owned by a prominent Mexican business man in Fl Paso, whose sporting blood is of the finest quality, and he declared after the showing his driver made in the first race that he could prepare the car for the longer contest. Leonard is very anxious to try it again, and, all though new to the racing game, has enough confidence in himself and his car to make another try at the game. His mechanic, H. L. Wright, another Fl Paso boy, will remain with him through the next race.
 In the Fl Phoenix race there will be three night controls and Phoe- nix will be one of them, Yuma another, and either Bisbee or Tucson the thirS. The racing time will be approximately 30 hours, judging by records set on the same course this year.
 Oldfield Done Many folks wonder whether Barney Oldfield will ever again enter road race, now that he has won so splen- didly the hardest race in the history of thes port. The possessor of The Re publican cup for 1914 and 1915 has an nounced emphatically that he will not go through the grind again. T have demonstrated that I can come back. That is all I wanted. They thought the old man with the cigar was like Jim Jeffries, but you know me, Barney Oldfield,"
 Miller Just Starting The first Phoenix boy to win Phoe- nix race is now looking into the motor racing game with the idea of trying it as a steady business. He wants to try out again. some time, and find out that it was no fluke that won him the Fl Paso race. As a matter of fact. the principles on which Miller prepared his car were scientifically right and Stan Murphy, whose Mercer Hugh put through the Prescott Loop race to a 1 splendid victory last July, heartily agrees with the diagnosis.

1t Is Our Business

Not a whisper was heard at the
Republican State convention in Au-
gusta on Thursday, in favor of the
Presidents canal tolls policy. 1t was
not that the gentlemen present were
wholly partisan in their views upon
the issue, but because those gentle
men were Americans and believe in
controlling American affairs When
Governor Kelley remarked, THAT is

nice and courteous to withdraw all

bad faith.

SUSPENDED Animation.

SUSPENDED animation in certain anil
mails during certain seasons and found
at times arong human beings, particu-
larly the East Indian "fakirs," has
for ages been known, but it has re-
manned for two Russians to study the
matter and assert that animation may
be indefinitely suspended, without in
Jury to the person, who will regain
consciousness with mind and func-
lions more vigorous than ever. These
men. Prof. Bahmetieff Of the Univer-
Prof Maxim Reussner, made long
and thorough study of the increasing
habit among wild natives of Siberian
Buriats, province of Tomsk, of long
periods of sleeping in the winter. with
the result of the above assertion.
Prof Reussner, who is now in this
country, says in an interview that
their observations among the natives
disclosed that they used an herb
bread" the effect being coma, lasting
a period of time in proportion to the
amount eaten. The thought then &C.
Cured to investigate the food OF bears
and other alternating animals before
they went into their long sleeps, which
was done, long and thorough search
being made until they claim they have
the secret. The professor says the
food contains honey and various herbs,
but is not at liberty as yet to make
known the whole list of ingredients,
saying that at later day the entire
secret will be given to mankind.
The claim is made that person may
be put to sleep for short or an in
definite time and the professor remarks
with some sense of humor that per-
son with a $4,000 income might sleep
nine months of the year and live the
other three months at the rate of a
$4,000 income.

Sans "Open Mind"

Next to Uncle Jim" Withee we
would place Sam Conner as a conven-
ton "sidelight." Sam was there with
the same old watch me- smile, starch
ed and put on for accompaniment to
his kidding" processes. Sam had on
his gladdest mitt, and everybody
knows Sandy their given names.
Sam saw early in the year that there
was to be no Republican State con-
yention this year. OF course he was
aware that no delegates were COM
ing into City Hall between $50 and
1890 on Thursday. Quite lot of his
Progressive friends were there, to be
sure-just dropped in to get a line on
the Republican despair, you know.
Sam stood near the little leader of
the Augusta Cadet Band and looked
toward the front of the hall, along
about 1851, we should say, and he
was heard softly to assure himself:
There haint no such animal"

by aid of the powerful prestige OF the

Into this New Jersey election, in the
home state of the President himself,
and in a campaign engineered by
lieutenants of the administration,
pressed and promoted by the Presi-
dents official family, and into which
the President injected his own per-
sonality, by mail, in order to gain a
victory for Democracy, that should
approve the attitude of the admins
tration," he was overwhelmingly de-
feated. The Republican candidate
won with vote of 1o,620 to a Demo-
cratic vote of 5420. 1t was an unpre-
cedented majority. 1t has been an
open challenge on the part Of the Re-
pubIicans who understood we'll the
prevailing public sentiment against the
President Of the canal tolls question,
and the challenge had been accepted
by the Democrats. The President
himself had requested that Democrats
elect their nominee and thus show
their Judgment with regard to the
present administration" The defeat
so overwhelmingly, of the Presidents
candidate is strikingly expressive of
their Judgment" We are inclined to
admire the judgment of these thous-
ands of voters in the home state or
the President who are opposed to the
skim milk policy of making America
for European service. 1t should carry
home very strongly to the administra-
tion the fact that when Americans do
big things they usually wish to know
why they are doing them.
With an array Of brilliant men upon
each side of this great question, 1t
is incumbent upon the American people
to decide for themselves the merits OF
the case, and they are quite willing
and likely to do So and do it very de-
cisively when the opportunity arrives.
The New Jersey election is only
sample of that verdict.

We were asked the other day what
had become of all the silver dollars.
We admitted right off that they had
all got by us, but that, being fore
gone conclusion, did not answer the
question. Can you? Then we saw the
following in a Portland paper;
A regular stunt of one of the Port
land banks is to gather up from all
the other banks all the silver dollars
that have come in each week, and ship
them out to Cumberland Mills to be
paid out again. Only for the devotion
of S. d. Warren & Co. to the dollar OF
their daddies, we might rarely see a
silver dollar in this region.
So far as we can say all the silver
dollars in Maine must have made their
way to Cumberland What do you
think?
