One of the worst tragedies in the
history Of the valley occurred on the
Marchus ranch, short distance north
west Of Seeley, last night, Mrs. Olivia
Marchus being killed by a negro
named William Weaver; the husband,
J.. A. Marchus, being wounded in the
hand, and the negro later committing
suicide.
Before the body of the negro had
been found Sheriff Meadows and his
deputies had gone from here TO
search for him, posse had been led
from Dixieland by John Williams, and
Captain Hammond was preparing to
lead e company of United States cav
airy from Calexico. The fire bell
here had been rung and three auto
mobile loads of fire boys had gone
to the scene, Frank Winslow of the
fire department finding the body Of
the negro.
The negro, Weaver, was grow
Marchus ranch and was treated in.
a very friendly manner by Mr.. and
Mrs. Marchus. He had bought some
corn of the former, and yesterday he
went to the house when Mrs. Mar
chus was alone and paid for the
corn. At the time he took slight
liberty with Mrs. Marchus, which she

JAPAN'S PRECARIOUS POSITION
WITH EXHAUSTED RESOURCES

Indignation is expressed by the jan
anese newspapers at the American at
titude revealed by the publication Of
the Japanese-American correspond
cnce on japanese immigration into
our Pacific coast states, and some of
them urge their government to find
6. remedy for what they style an Gin
sulting" situation. So the cable re-
ports and the mails will bring us their
more detailed complaint later. In the
meantime we find discussion of ia
PANS position in the Paris Soleil,
which believes that Japan has taken
her seat in the circle of great pow
ers h little prematurely and may have
to retire to more modest position
In adopting western civilization, we
are told, Japan, which was by no
means prepared for such changes, i'm
ported 'wo very dangerous institu-
tons, p; (iamentarism and industrial
ism, wf..uh have brought upon her
nothing but suffering and danger.
The conflict of parties in her parNe
mentary government is so serious as
to threaten the disintegration of the
nation. Industrialism and competition,
says the Soleil, make necessary the
exploitation Of 1fant and woman-la-
Dor. The writer of this article quotes
from a recent publication of Eugene
BrieuX, eau Japan, par Java, La
Chine, la Coree." He tells us that
this French traveller has visited the
factories of Japan, and has seen at
Osaka unhappy little girls of IL ply
ing rhe loom, from which they do not
lift either tbs If hands or their eyes
for Twelve hs' RS of the day. In ia
pan, he dec0 res, there are 100000
working girls under 20. Each day,
after their work is done, they clean
up the shop, sleep two or three IN
the same bed, and have no holiday
excepting once in fifteen days. Let us
quote the conclusions at which Mr.
Brieux arrives:
Japan has got to the end Of her
physical strength. She seems to be
exhausted. The military expenses Of
the country are out of all proportion
to her wealth. This has been endured
with q true heroism, silent, unrecog-
nized willingly dissimulated through
a pride which has enabled the people
to add to the ordinary burdens of life
those taxes imposed in order that
ironclads may. be built, cannons and
rifles purchased, and formidable
army maintained on a war footing.
Japan's victories over China and Rus
sia did not enrich her treasury"
Socialism, unemployment and even
an anarchic rage against the reign
ing sovereign have been some of the
results of Japan's imitation of west
ern habits and usages. To quote fur
ther from Mr.. Brieux:
"Japan is hungry; she is sick. The
Development of her industries has Gre
ated socialism, and abject poverty has
aroused the spirit Of revolt. In To-
kio alone the number of unemployed
often exceeds 100000. There are cer-
tain signs that lead us to think that
an III wind is beginning to blow over

PATRONAGE TROUBLE
MENACES PRESIDENT
Resentment in Senate Is Grow.
ing-Lynn Rejection Indi-
Gates Feeling. \
By JOHN SNURE.

Patronage trouble between Demo-
cratic Senator'S and members OF the
House on the one hand, and the White
House on the other, Is growing more
acute daily. Indications are that the
difficulties for the Wilson Administra-
ton in this regard will become as great
as those which harassed the Taft Ad-
m.nisTation.
President Taft, about a year after en-
tering office. found insurgent Repub-
Leans unwilling to support the legisla-
ton he wanted. and he proceeded TO try
TO punish the insurgents by Withholding
patronage from them. Mr.. Taft was
told by ill-advised lieutenants that by
doing this he would crush the insur-
rectionists. But the outcome was dis
astrous for the Taft Administration.
In using the patronage club on the In
surgents Mr.. Taft found out too late
that his weapon was a boomerang.
Now. President Wilson has set out to
punish insurgent Democratic Senators
and give the offices to others. In the
case of New York, he Is charged with
allowing Secretary of the Treasury Nc
Adoo TO dictate the filling of the jobs.
This is causing bitter protest from the
regular organization Democrats OF New
York The rejection OF the John ID.
Lynn appointment for district attorney
in western New York ut the instance OF
Senator O'Gorman Is an incident In the
trouble which has been aroused over the
dictation OF patronage by Secretary Nc
Adoo, and others not OF the regular
Democratic organization.
Ugly feeling is being aroused over the
patronage situation. of which the Lynn
rejection and the fights over nomins-
tons in New jersey and at Kansas cry
are parts.
