THE YELLOW PERIL
Japan Financially Almost a Pau.
per and Cannot Meet u. S.
on Equal Terms

''The yellowest portion of the
Yellow Peril is not outside of
Japan. It is within Japan. Here
is a country owing one and a
quarter billion dollars-much
more than the national debt of
the United States when all cred
it's in the way of sinking funds
and unimpaired appropriations
and available resources are sub
tracted in both instances; and
Japan has a total wealth of
twelve or thirteen billion dollars
against the one hundred and fiji
ty or sixty billion dollars or
more of the total wealth of the
United States.
Here is a country where the
taxes are already so oppressive
and comprehensive that it would
take great financial ingenuity to
tack on ten sen anywhere with
out confiscation. For example,
my jinrikisha boy, who happens
to own his own conveyance,
earns twenty yen-or ten dol
lars in gold-a month; and he
gets high wages. He is forced
to pay, because he owns his
own conveyance, one dollar aud
a quarter in gold of that ten
dollars each month in tax. Think
of that, you lightly taxed Amer
leans! And so it goes, with in
Genes taxed to the breaking
point and everything else taxed !;
with the internal revenue sour
ces squeezed to the last avail

Here is a country that sells
considerably more than half of
it's exports to the United States
and buys less than three per
cent of our exports a country
that has it's best customer in us.

say, that is painting to go to war

Mighty Choruses
Sing Great Hymns
French Sing Marseillaise, Ger.
mans The Watch on The
Rhine When Italy
Breaks In

A mighty chorus from 2,000,-
900 threats, sweeping down the
500 miles from the North sea
to the Swiss border, in the thun-
derous refrain from LA Mar
seillaise," greeted the welcome
news that Italy had entered the
war against Austria.
King Victor Emmanuel signed
the declaration of war at two
o'clock Sunday afternoon.
France was Immediately noti-
fed. War Minister Millerand
flashed it to General Joffre at
general headquarters.
With scarcely a seconds de-
lay it went rushing down
through army commanders to
corps commanders, and success
sively down through generals of
divisions to commanders of brig
AIDES, until every colonel, major,
captain and lieutenant along the
firing line knew that Italy had
entered the lists on the side of
the Allies.
The message raced on over
field telephone wires-wires
strung precariously through the
ruins of devastated villages, on
forest trees, on stakes driven
in fields of buttercups. 1t reach
ed the telephone operators on
the front line of observation
posts. They flashed it on to the
troops blazing away at the Ger
mans in the trenches a few yards
distant.
It was now sunset. Along the
line there seemed to come a lull.
Heavy guns paused as though
in reverence.
Suddenly the strange silence
was broken. spontaneously the
troopers began LA Marseillaise"
at first singing softly and then
breaking into a roaring refrain
as the words ran along the bat
tie front in the greatest chorus
the world has ever heard.
Instinctively, the Germans in
the opposite trenches knew what
this thunderous chorus meant.
They shouted back: "Gott strafe
Italy"
Then from the German trench
es came the strains of ode
Yacht Am Rhein," and shortly
afterward the rattle of bullets.
The French only laughed de-
risively. They printed cards
reading: 'Your goose is cooked"
and planted them amid a wav-
ing field of Italian flags, impro-
vised-heaven knows how
along the ramparts.-Wm. Phil
ip Simms.

HE will probably come after me-"

maturely white hair. It has grown
much whittier since she has been
away and l really think she is better
looking for it.
Don't you think that the second
Mrs. Tenney is better looking than
the first?" asked Bill.
1t was a funny question, even if
little vulgar, and laughed and said:
81 certainly do think Donna is love
Iier than she was when she was mar

Perhaps it is because you are older

much"

FIRE TEAMS GET TWO
LONG RUNS THURS,
FOR 4 SINGLE FIRE
House Of Mrs. Nellie Small on
Belfast Road Damaged About
$500 Loss Covered by In
surance-Fire Whistle Is Err
ratio

The Augusta fremen had a lively two
hours Thursday afternoon and although
there was really but one fire the bows
covered lot OF country and the horses
which haul the several pieces of fire
apparatus were given one of the hardest
runs of the season. The department
turned out for the first time at 126,
when an alarm was sent in from Box
I is, at Pettinglrs Corner, on Bangor
street, and was due to a grass fire at
the west side of the story-and-a-halfs
house owned by Mrs. Nellie A. Small
and located on the north side of the
North Belfast road short distance
| east of the corner. The three teams
made a quick run and although some
of the lower courses of clapboards had
caught fire from the burning grass the
blaze was extinguished by the use of
chemicals, after which the teams were
sent back to their stations, two men be-
| ing left on watch at the scene Of the
| fire.
1t is probable, however, that some
stray spark must have escaped the no.
| tice of the tiremen. for soon after =
o'clock the house was found TO be on
fire and at 223 second alarm was sent
/ III from box ~. FOR some reason the
! indicators at the hose houses showed
| up IS, which box is at the corner Of
Oxford and Franklin streets, and the
teams went hurrying to the top of the
| hill in Northern avenue to find on their
arrival that the box had not been
opened. Volunteer Hose No. 3, also
| responded to the call. 1t was then learn
! ed by phone where the fire was and the
! teams made another long run of more
/ than mile back to the Belfast road
1t was found on their arrival that
the fire had worked in under the floor of
| the ell of the house and up inside the
walls to the second floor. Pine Tree
| Hose No had before the arrival Of the
other teams laid a line of hose and was
doing good work, and with the help Of
! the reinforcements the fire was soon
! killed out, and the about was sounded
at 3.06. The greater part of the furni-
| ture in the house was removed to a
place Of safety but there wf1l be some
damage by water to that which remain
ed The estimated loss on account of
| the fire is about $780, with insurance in
the Macomber, Farr & Written agency.
