DEPLORES JAPANS ACT

| New York, Aug 1s-Herman Ridder.
editor OF the Staats-Zeitung, discussing
the European war from the German
viewpoint, says, in part, in his article
today:
I'VE Americans are learning the game
of world politics with astonishing ra-
pidity In our splendid isolation we had
no need of complicated school Of nplo-
macy to check and checkmate other ma
tions. However, our expansion toward
the Far East brought US into rivalry
with Japan. According to the code Of
world politics, as played at present,
Japan Is undoubtedly a possible enemy
Of ours. How real the danger is the Eu-
ropean war illustrates very clearly.
Interests of U. $. in Jeopardy.
with the entrance OF Japan into the
war, the interests OF the United States
are placed in jeopardy. month ago it
would have been considered screaming
| jingoism to prophesy war with Japan.
Yet fear that the seizure Of Kiaochow
is the first step in a British-Japanese
plot to obtain the control Of the Far
East
1T is evident that Japan has decided
to take this step at the instigation Of
at least, with the consent Of England
Great Britain has placed herself under
Portable at some future date. England
had no real need OF this assistance and,
apparently, prefers her alliance with
japan to her friendship with the United
States This latest complication can be
of no real assistance to England. but II Is
Of decided advantage TO Japan.
Were Japan entirely satisfied that
England would observe the strictest neu-
trality, Japan would not hesitate to adopt
a DplirN-
1T is evident that Japan is taking ad-
vantage of the situation in which Ger
many finds herself, to aim a blow in
directly against US. We have every rea-
son to fear the ambitions Of the yellow
race. The fight is spreading. God grant
that by no dexterous trick Of Legerde-
main can they plunge US into this de-
structive war.
Seeks n Trustee.
This suggestion has been made and it
strikes me as a particularly good one,
for the United States 10 act as trustee
for Kiaochow, pending the outcome Of
the war in Europe. Germany has spent
millions of dollars developing the harbor.
the town OF Tsing-Tau and even the
hinterland. 1t seems like a utter waste
Of life and material to have the japanese
navy annihilate the small squadron OF
German and Austrian ships, slaughter
the garrison and shell the town. II the
Japanese flag ever waves over Kiaochow
we will never live to see the day when
It will be withdrawn
Why is it not practicable at this juno
ture for Washington to step in and act
as guardian of the little province of
hiaochow? Is it not good humanity and
good politics for us TO do so? When the
war is over the matter may be definitely
arranged, but We would have at least
avoided bloodshed and ruin. We would
have shown some common sense. a COM

No Legislative Special Session

The Carson Appeal last week in
terviewed Governor Oddie relative
to the prospect of a special session
of the Nevada Legislature and the
Chief Executive issued the following
statement:
"You may quote me as saying that
at the present time there is no oc-
casion to call an extra session of the
Legislature, and | have no idea of
calling one. The question of elect
ing a United States Senator at the
next general election, which is the
only proposition that would impel
the calling of a special session, is
now before the United States Senate.
and three bills provide a means for
the election of a Senator without
bringing Legislative machinery into
play at the present time. Should
congressional enactment fail, it will
then be time to talk about a special
session."

Danger In Late Cut Alfalfa

A number of deaths of both cattle
and horses, due to feeding late-cut
alfalfa, are reported from great
many sections of the southwest, says
the Farmer and Stockman. About
the time the last cutting of alfalfa
was made rainy spell of weather
set in, and the late-cut stuff has not
cured as it should. Some have been
feeding this partly cured stuff direct.
ly from the field. with considerable
trouble as result. The hay is very
heavy with sap and moisture, and
animals seem to like it, but it is not
good for them in its present partly
cured state. A still greater death
agency is alfalfa which has been
frozen before being cut. This has
been giving more than the usual
trouble this Fall, and yet some folks
do not seem to remember that feed
ing it to anything except hogs is
dangerous. If you have any of this,
feed it only to the hogs. 1t will not
hurt them, but it often will kill a
horse or cow in double quick time.

DEATH OF JACOB SHAllENBARGER
Pioneer Resident of Eastern Nevada
Passes Away Al Los Angeles

The Ely Expositor announces the
death of Jacob Shallenbarger at Los
Angeles on January 6 and says:
The body will be brought to Ely
for burial, leaving Los Angeles Tues
day evening in company with the
members of the family who were
with Mr.. Shallenbarger when he
passed away.
Jacob Shallenbarger was pioneer
of the State having come here in
1862 from Nebraska, driving a bull
team from Omaha to Carson City.
For time until 1869 he freighted on
the Comstock but left there when
the Hamilton excitement was on in
1869, since which time he has been a
resident of White Pine County. He
freighted into Hamilton as long as
the silver boom lasted there and in
1880 settled on ranch in Steptoe
valley near Ely. When the Ely cop
per boom was developing his ranch
property was desired by some of the
company promoters for the valuable
water rights that went with it and
he was offered $4,000 cash for the
place. He put his figure at 100000
and in just year was paid that sum
for the property. He invested
large portion of the money in Ely
and Los Angeles property, which has
since increased in value.
Mr.. Shallenbarger was born De-
cember 4, 1899, at Connellsville,
Pennsylvania, and in his early man.
hood he spent part of the time work
ing on steamboats, running between
st. Louis and Kansas City. He is
survived by widow. one son, Marion
C. Shallenbarger. and one daughter,
Miss Christie.

COMPLICATION AT LAND OFFICE
Only Parties Conversant With Safe
Combination

Carson News: The sad death of
Earl w. fremont, following the
weeks of strenuous labor at the Fed
eral building in preparing and trans
cribing the many hundred pounds of
documents which had to be transfer
red to the new land office at Elko,
makes quite a complication in the
local office. Shortly after the death
of Mr.. fremont, Registrar Cohn tel
egraphed to the department at Wash
ington notifying them of the death
cf Mr.. fremont and it is probable
that an appointment will be made at
once to fill the position. The safe
and all the books of the Receiver are
locked and the combination cannot be
touched. In the Federal land office
the combinations to the respective
safes are known but to the officers
in charge of the same and duplicate
of the combination filed with the de-
partment at Washington. Owing to
the death of Mr.. fremont the only
key to the combination of the Re-
ceiver's safes are in Washington and
will be transmitted to the successor
in office.

Successful Dry Farming

When the State experimental dry
farm was established at Elko, it was
alleged by some. that the expense was
needless. but now comes the testi-
mony of several dry farmers, who
have followed the admonitions of
the experimentalists and are credit
ing their non-irrigated farms with a
yield of grain hardly exceeded by the
land owners who had water. The
wheat is said to be harder and of a
better quality.
