Warren District taser port ioday ln Joyous com. momouuon Of that other day m 7e when it became necessary for froedomiovng and freedom entitled people to assert themselves The oast Chat those of their descendants who find. themselves in Che Warren District do today 10 show themselves worthy of Che legacy handed down them to carry out in spirit as well in acts Che true meaning of independence
 Independence is a negative word Applied in the sense in which it was used in the Declaration 1t con. veyed specific message that the United states was not dependent upon England. As best interpreted to- day in its application to our free country the preaA 'n' meaning not might better be dropped and the phrase changed to read Declaration of Dependence"
 The spirit of dependence is what our people need to cultivate. Dependence should be defined as implying infinite trust in our fellow men; faith in Che goodness possesred in some measure by an readiness to seek counsel and aid with the feeling that they will be prof Tered unstntingly. Those and women who do not assume to know everything to embody an the virtues Go be superior to the mankind are h emep and women who most easely resemble their sterling fore athers who made the Fourth of July holiday of pe culiar significance the world over
 Today is ecellent occasion when tbe true moan ing of dependence can be demonstrated in the Warren District The streets of Bisbee and Lowell will be crowded with celebrants. Emergencies such as arise whenever crowds assemble win doubtless develop. Every man and woman and child in the crowds win be dependent upon the good sense and the couraee and the resourcefuness of their neighbor Others will be dependent upon YOU. Show yourself worthy of tbi, trust imposed in you
 Others will depend you to practice moderation 'n order that they may enjoy the Fourth Don't spoil your neiehbors good time by offending extrayaeance Be consderate of his rights. Enough of wholesome amusement has been provided to insure day of nm. aoyed pleasure for all the necessity of trying to m prove on the program will not arise Let the Warren Districts Fourth be remembered among other tbipps Tor the dependence expressed by all to the end that all may have real holiday

US AND JAPAN

Nothing that is new in the way of argument is re. VeaIed by ie publication of the official correspopdapc between the United States Japan over the California antiaiien law Every point made on either side was gwen in fullest discussion during the course of last controversy Japan admits that the question of patpr ailzatioa so much involved in the land ownership dis pute is political problem of national and moi otor national concern, but contends that the treaty yo lated when civil rights granted to other aliens aro nied to Japanese, and that the United States mpst be held responsible for the alleged infringement of the treaty by California
 To this the United States replies that the land act does not violate the treaty and that the most favored nation clauses do not apply to land ownership or tbe transmission of property
 And there the question stands Both sides contend that they are right but until there are fresh deyeIop ment5 the matter s likely to be made subject even for arbitration
 II 1t were the pvot of discussion it would not be so much political as racial and that issue leads to eonsideraton of Professor Boas arguments that inter marriages between white and orientas or half breeds Is just as conducive to the future greatness of ran kind as auy other sort of marriage
 There is need to waste time or biolop.,l snecls

 But the point to be remembered is that as rae, we are no more opposed to intermarriages with th, Japanese than the Japanese as a race as opposed t ntemarrage with us They just as convinced and possibly of their superiority to us as WI are of our superiority to them Viewed broadly neithe is the superior the inferior; both are simply differ ent but the difference is too great to permit of Una harmony in intemauiage without which there can b DO greatness national International

fee records, increased their estimates
Of the dead to forty.five persons. They
could add no new names to the list OF

ordered the building commissioner to
hire 100 men to clear away the wreck

The city council has ordered full in.
vestigation Of the fire. with a view to

cation may be extended to all hotels
