The Dixie Bee Line oreauiza--v
tion met in Evansville Saturday
morning and arranged to push
the work Of establishing the route
and getting action all along the.
line. The entire number of vica
presidents, one from each county
in the organic alton, will be the
committee toview the line and :.
establish the way 1t shall run.
They will go over the line from
Evansville north the week Of
July Goth aud date for viewing
he line from Evansville south
vii be arranged later. An efforts
vas made to get Mclean county
into the organization, with the
purpose Of trying to swing the
line through Calhoun and Green
VILE to Russellville. There was
talk too of trying to run by o ~rus
boro. The effort failed, for the
reason that neither Mclean uor
Davies were represented in the
convention that created the pre-.
sent organization and the crea-
ture cannot go beyond the pow
ers or the territory given it by
it's creator. An appeal from the
decision of the chair on this point
was defeated, the point having
been discussed among some Of
the delegates before it was
known there would be Mclean
delegation present. After the
business meetinsthe vice presi-
dents and visitors were enter,
tanned at luncheon by Mayor
Bose and the Evansville Bust-p
ness Mems Association and after

any hour-may bring declaration Of

Editorial Comments
on Current Subjects
JAPs SHOULD MAKE PEACE WITH
GERMANY.

For two good reasons Japan ought
to make a treaty OF firm and lasting
peace with Germany before the former
country proceeds to enforce her ulti.
matum upon China. The first is that,
according to the general understand
ing OF the western world, Japan is
attempting to assume control OF the
government, the fortunes, the destiny
of the Chinese republic in n distinctly
German manner, in the manner which
the great teachers OF political theory
in Germany have declared to be the
true method Of increasing the terri
torial domain. the commerce and the
power OF a state. For second rea'
son, II Japan now proceeds to enforce
the demands the Chinese have re-
jected, she will tear up, as uncon'
sidered OF paper. two solemn treaties
one with Great Britain and one with
the United States. Undoubtedly ia
pan has chosen we'll and shrewdly
the occasion for extending her control
over China.-New York Times.
