PRESIDENT TO SEE EXPOSITION.
Will Make Trip to San Francisco as
Soon as POssible-NOt Campaign
Tour,

Washington, April 11.-President
Wilson plans to make his delayed trip
to the San Francisco exposition as
soon as foreign affairs permit. The
date is still uncertain. The presi-
dents advisers, it became known
tonight, are anxious for him to make
a number of speeches in different
parts of the country before the next
congress meets.
Friends of the president say the
contemplated trip can not be called
a campaign tour" and they are pre-.
venting as far as possible the forma-
ton of Wilson clubs to avoid even
the appearance of starting a boom.
Although political advisers of Mr..
Wilson say privately they have no
doubt that he will be renominated, It
was indicated tonight that there will
be no formal launching of his cam
didacy as such a step might embar-
rass him in carrying out the policies
of his administration.

THE JAPAN-CH|NA MATTER.
ENGLISH PRESS CLAIM JAPANESE
WOULD TRESPASS ON THEIR
RIGHTS.
Attitude Becomes More Sus-
tained-Railway Question is One
Which is Causing Trouble at Pres
cnt.

Picking, April II -Article 5 Of
group 8 of the Japanese demand on
China-an article which, it is pointed
out here, may be regarded by British
as transgressing on their railway
concessions and railway pledges re-
ceived from China-was reached at
the conference yesterday between the
japanese minister to China, Mr.. Hioki,
and Picking government officials.
Article 8 of group 5 reads: China
agrees to Japan's right to build a
railway connecting WuChang with
Klu Kiang and Nan Chang; also a
line between WI Chang and Hang
Chow and a line between Nan Chang
and KiaO Chow"
Influential Japanese have been sug-
costing for many months that British
capital and japanese enterprise for
railways and other developments for
China be combined. British capital
lists, however, so far have failed to
respond to the idea.
The British press in the Orient is
unsparing in it's criticism of japan.
The North China Daily News recent
~ styled Japan's demands in China
as a dirty trick"
Those foreign advisers who believe
that Japan dare not employ force are
prevailing with President Yuan Shi
kai for the time being
The SITTER attitude which the
Chlnese began to display Thursday
was continued at yesterdays meeting,
Foreign Minister Lu Chang Hsiang re-
fusing to discuss articles 4, 5 and G
CT group 5, despite, it is said by
Chinese officials definite threats on
the part of Japan.
Article 4 Of group 5 oppose that
China shall purchase from Japan
a fixed ratio of the quantity of NUM-
tions of war-say about so per cent
or Japan shall establish in China q
Jointly worked arsenal, japanese
technical experts to be employed and
Japanese material to be- purchased"
Foreign Minister Lu Cheng Hsiang
again asked that discussion regard
ing the Manchurian group be con-
cluded. The Japanee minister replied
that he was without instructions in
this regard from Tovko. These seems
to be no doubt now in Chinese and
foreign circles here that the .Iannnese
The watchman and southron. [volume] (Sumter, S.C.) 1881-1930, 1915-04-14

are deliberately maintaining the Man
churian group open.
I'm japanese newspapers published
in China and otherwise the Japanese
are striving to impress the Chinese
that the latter's hope in American as
sistance will be unavailing, it being
declared that Japan has knowledge
that the American government will
not interfere.
The Japanese also are arguing Off
clally and in the press hat a Chinese
Japanese combination, meaning an
alliance, will strengthen China.

or worse, but the best fictions of the
day. In the windows of Mixers and
Woodcock' bookstores you will find
Holman Day, F. Hopkinson Smith, Rex
Beach, Joseph Lincoln and many other
well known writers represented. Mr..
Days books specially appeal to Maine
folks and the writer rejoices in COM
plete collection of them. F. Hopkinson
Smith books should have permanent
value. not only for their literary style,
but because they portray a type OF
character that has passed, or is passing,
away. His Col. Carter should live in
print as long as the we'll known charac-
tiers of Dickens and Thackeray. And OF
many other writer's who appear on the
bargain counter it may be said that they
will be as readable many years hence as
they are today. Locally there is
special demand for "Joe" Lincoln's
amusing fiction. 1t should be understood
that these are not imperfect or shop
worn books. Their bindings are pro-
tected by paper covers and they are
identically the same books that are sold
at the higher price.

THE MIXER FAMILY REUNION.

Saturday, Septe mber 4th, the day set for the
annual reunion of the descendants of George
and Mary (Crooks) Mixer, at Silver Harvest
Grange hall. Waldo, was a fine day. The.
weather man is a particular friend of the
Mixers, and usually gives them nice day for
their reunion. But this year his partially
caused us some Inconvenience, since so many
who had not finished haying were obliged to
take advantage of the good weather to harvest
their hay crop instead of attending the re-.
union. Although we regretted their absence,
and were sorry for them because they were
losing the good time, yet we did not allow
those thoughts to mar in the least the enjoy
ment of the day. The number gathered at
the dinner table was small. but the amount of
years. During the dinner hour others ar
rived until our number was swelled to forty.
The business meeting was then called to
order, and the following officers elected: Presi-
dent, Charles Sanborn; Secretary, Mrs. 1.

and Isaac Sanborn; Treasurer, Frank Glenn

After the close OF the meeting all gathered
around the piano and the breezes waited to
the ears of the astonished neighbors songs old
and new, sung by Mixers old and young Fin
ally when our voices began to show signs of
cracking, some of the younger cousins started
a dance. Soon the older ones began to get
restless, and we had rather not tell how old
some of us were who were on the floor at the
finish.
The hour of departure came all too soon, as
it always does at our reunions, and we were
on our way homeward with the memory of
one more Mixer reunion to enliven the grey
monotony of life.
Those present came from various towns in

''The farmers are encouraged and say
that their crops are looking, after all,
fairly well. and that they shall be much
better off than they dared to hope, -
says the Portland correspondent of the
Bangor Commercial. This is cheering.
We hear OF one farmer in this vicinity
who is satisfied with the outlook and
does not join in the general complaint as
to cold, wet weather. But this is an ex-
ception. Reports from the farmers gen.
orally are decidedly pessimlstic. Much
depends upon the corn crop, and how the
potatoes turn out. If we should have
the long, mild fall that every one is hop
irg for corn would mature and there
would be work for the canning factories.
A failure in the corn crop this year would,
it is feared, cause the Gamers to move
their factories elsewhere. There is not
much hope for profit from potatoes, rust
having appeared, but Aroostook is opti-
mistic as to prices, although the new
crop is only bringing 81 bushel at pres
ent. The Fort Fairfield Review reports
that buyer in that section has contract
ed for 5000 bushels for $4,000, and says
that ''other deals of the same kind are
heard of, and concludes that ''experi-
enced and successful buyers would not be
reaching out SO strongly for stock if there
was not good promise of getting rid of
it later at profit" The Review esti-
mates that the crop in Fort Fairfield will
be from 80 to 35 per cent less than that
of 1914, while reports from Houlton indi-
cate only about 60 per cent of normal
crop.
In this connection it may be noted
that diversified farming is taking root
in the Garden of Maine. The Fort Fair
field Review says:
Score another for Aroostook! She has
already seen the light to the extent of
raising her own beef. For years back
Aroostook has been in the habit of buy
ing lot of beef from the west, but dur
ing the past year or so that buying has
lessened until it is now practically moth
ing. from New Brunswick many young
cattle have come across during the past
few years to be grown and fattened on
Aroostook sofia move in the right d.
rection, certainly. Now let Aroostook
get herself together to raise lot more
of the things that she needs and could
raise as well as not. 1t can readily be
seen that buying everything with pota-
toes at anywhere from high prices to NO
prices at all is not always profitable
proceeding.
What the Review says of sheep rails
ing is interesting, as if this industry is
profitable in Aroostook it can be made
so in Waldo county and elsewhere in the
State:
Hopkins Brothers last year had 3a
sheep, not picked sheep, but kind of
average sheep. These animals produced
AZ lambs. which were very early and
good ones, being worth about $500 each
when they were butchered about July
4th. Together with the wool from thesa
sheep the income from each animal was
nearly $500. Does it not seem as if
sheep would pay in Aroostook?
