J. 5. INSISTS LIN OPENDOOR|N
 CHINA |

PEKIN, June 2S.-The United States has sent warning to both Japan and China, notifying both countries that the American government would not recognize, or abide by. any agreement between China and Japan, that would impair the rights Of the United States to have a free hand in seeking trade with China, or would endanger the open door policy of the Chinese gov ernment.
 The two notes sent from Washing. ton to China and Japan, were identical and were delivered simultaneously to the foreign offices of those countries sometime around May 15, one week after China had acceded to the de- mands made upon her by Japan. For some reason the matter has just be- come public, and the three govern ments concerned have all preserved an extraordinary silence in the premises.

FOREIGN LEGION IN THICK OF FIGHTING

LONDON June 2S-The French Foreign Legion, in which a number of Americans are serving, has been doing brilliant work in the fighting north of Arras. The casualties in the Legion have been very heavy, and letter re- ceived here from a wounded member states that In his company of 250 men only SO are left. The letter says:
 "The Legion had the honor of being chosen to be the first out of the trenches and to take the German lines with the bayonet. This was at a point between Souchez and Carency. Pre- vlous to the attack, there was a terri ble bombardment of the German posi- tion.
 French guns of all calibres were firing together for two hours without interruption. It was like an earth quake Suddenly, punctually at ten o'clock in the morning, the firing ceased, and the Charge was sounded.
 We were out of the trenches iike lightning. It was wonderful. We were like storm. In ten minutes we had won the first line of German trenches. But there was no stopping us. We kept 1t up hammer and tongs for an hour and a half, taking three lines of the enemys trenches and driving the enemy in front of us.
 By this time all the officers of our company were either killed or wounded, so a sergeant took command and we entrenched ourselves as best we could, but finally had to retire about hundred yards.
 Here I got two wounds. Four in every five of our men were either killed or wounded in that fierce charge"

ZAPATA VICTORY AT CAPITAL |S
 CONFIRMED

WASHINGTON, D. C., June 2S.- Further advices received at the State Department today from its agents in Mexico, do not shed much light on the situation there, or forecast what effect the recent defeat of Carranza in his effort to capture Mexico City, will have upon the politics of that country. The information received this morning con- firms the first dispatches announcing the victory of Zapata over the Consti- nationalist forces led by General Con zales. The Carranzistas are in full retreat, and the Zapata forces are pressing their advantage. The advance upon the Mexican capital has been a total failure.

ANOTHER MEMORIAL
 GETS THE AXE

Replying to the recently received memorial by which the Legislature requested a radio station for Candle, Alaska, Secretary of War Lindley NJ. Garrison writes.
 Tt would seem that to place a gov ornment station at Candle would be in direct competition with private enter prise already providing adequate facilities. This is contrary to the policy of the War Department"
 In the letter, which was received lately by the office of the Territorial Secretary, Secretary of War Garrison states that investigation has brought to light the fact that there is a pri. vate telephone line connecting Candle with the city of Nome and which passes through only two intermediate stations, and also that this line gives fairly reliable service. The letter further justifes the refusal of the Department to consider a station at Candle on the ground that in any event there is only very small amount of business for a station at Candle, The memorial was proposed by Representative w. w. Getchell, of Nome.

O|L REFINERY ID INCREASE SIZE
 OF PLANT

With the recent development in Southwestern Alaska the demand for gasoline and other petroleum prod ucts has become so great that the Amalgamated Oil Co.,, operating at katalla, Alaska, Is contemplating an increase in the size of it's refining plant. Meantime several new wells are being sunk, among them being one owned by the Alaska Coal & Oil De- velopment Company, which has att tained a depth of 900 feet, and the only well in the district that has pene- trated the limestone This Is the gist Of statement made by George T. Barrett. a pioneer Alaskan, who first settled at Katalla in 1880. "The Amalgamated plant" said Barrett, 'is now refining about 35 barrels of uIs. tillate and gasoline a day, bur ms is not sufficient to supply the local de- mand. All of the product is sold in Southwestern Alaska, where the freight charges from Seattle and Cali fornia give the home product a de- cided advantage. Much of it is used by the fishing vessels" Barrett ex- pressed the opinion that development of the Alaskan oil fields have been held back because many of the claim owners feared they would share the fate of the coal claimants If they brought in paying wells. Many wells had the caps screwed on after oil had been struck.-Alaska & Northwest Mining Journal.

APPEAL. PARADOX.

The granting OF an appeal in the
case of Leo NJ. Frank to the United
States Supreme Court is an illustra-
ton of curious defect in our system
of appeals. The whole appeal pro-
ceedlng is an acknowledged subter-
fuee. The only actual point at issue
is the guilt or innocence Of Frank, and
the whole public interest in the case
is based upon very real doubt Of his
guilt. But the question of the guilt
or innocence of the prisoner is pre-
cisely the only question which cannot
come before an appeal court, If the
proceeding in his trial was incorrect,
Il can be ordered to be done over
again. But If nothing worse happen
ed than that an innocent man was
condemned to be hanged, there is no
tribunal in existence empowered to
consider that question. Therefore,
because this is the question and is
important, inconsequential technical
questions are given a fictitious import
ance in order to enable the courts to
do indirectly what they are forbidden
to do directly.
We have in this respect at least be-
come civilized in California. The is
sue appealed in California is now no
longer that of the Justice Of the out
