War Order Prosperity in
Japan Also.

Washington, Dec. 18. (Specis
Correspondence. Reports of tn
most marvellous prosperity reac
here from Japan, where ever
evidence of widespread industria
activity and profit is to be had
Bank clearings and deposits, th'
extension of industrial plauts
the growth of foreign trade-al
tell of the wonderful expansion
of Japanese trade and enterprise.
l. is altogether natural that
this should be true with respect
of japanese exports of war ma
terial to her neighbOr and ally.
the Russian Empire; and it is
likewise of no special wonder
that Japan should be proiting
largely through an unimpeded en-
trance into the trade fields of the
Far East which are necessarily
neglected by the European bel
ligerents. But that the growth
of japanese trade should also be
largely at the expense of the Uni
ted States is something which
cannot be regarded with SO much
complacency.
The balance of trade between
Japan and this country will pro-
baby amount to nearly $150, O00.-
600 this year. Her exports to
North .America-most of which
came to us-amounted to about
$58,OOOs 1000 last year; ahdalready
in this wear she hassent us s106s- |
-0OhesS igOBth
This is but a beginning. and
the Japanese government is pay
ing special attention to. the eff
forts of her business men to ex-
tend their plants and their trade.
Special subsidies have been paid
to the promoters Of new enter
prises. particularly for the pro-
duction of synthetic dyes, of
glass, Of cellulol3 ard of paper.
But even the UnriValled indus
try of the japanese workmen,
coupled with the sagacity of the
Japanese business man, aided by
the bounty of the japanese gov
ernment, would not in itself ex=
plain the unparalleled develop
ment of japanese trade with the
United States. I'VE have our
selves made the largest cOntribu-
ton to that result by letting down
the tariff bars which once shut |
out the influx OF Japanese goods |
to the American market.
The European war has given
Japan ready access to the mar
kets of the Orient through the
removal of European competition.
The Democratic tariff has given
Japan ready access to the Amer
ican market through the removal
of the only barrier between the
low level of Japanese wages and
the high wage-level of this coun-
try.

VIII a p9ation Of war
or will Peace come with healing
in her wings? It seems the
Kaiser has made some oyertures
of peace to the opposing warning
nations. This naturally puts ev-
to guessing whether
there is any sincerity in this init
iation- 1t gives large latitude
for speculation. I doubt net the
Kaiser would be glad to be res
cued from the situation he is in,
and doubtless would be glad as
was a certain Teuton engaged in
mortal combat with a bear, who
called out Justify, ''Poys, poys,
come and help me let dish ding
60" The old Kaiser would be
glad to have neutral nations help
him loose his hold upon his an
tagonists before he skaters and
annihilates his adYersaries. Hell
is certainly in great distraction |
as to what TO do. He feels pref |
ty confident, however, if his terms
are not accepted by the allies
that they will be responsible be-
fore the world and in history for
the crueltles and horrors of the
war which is now devastating
and decimatilg the nations en-
gagged init. The peace overtures
have not progressed very tar yet,
and, while I am not prophet, l
will venture to say conditions are
not yet ripe for peace. Blood
she'd and carnage will continue
for a while, at least, and until
exhaustion comes to all or nearly
all OF them. which. to some Of
them, is not far ahead. Internal
revolution tr insurrection is al
ready threatenedin some of them
and needs little encouragement
to break forth.

SAN FRANCISCO. August 9.--Chair-

central committee has been accused of
disloyalty to Charles f.. Hughes. stand,
ard bearer of the party, by Chester II.
RowPll, editor Of the Fresno Republican
and a member Of the Republican nation

In message to William K Wilcox
chairman of the national committee. last
night, Rowell bitterly attacks Krrslng
and charges him with having broken
faith with the party s cahdidatr.
THE accusation j. said to have arisen
out Of the desire of Governor Johnson
to preside at the Hughes meeting in
this city. Rowell will not persist in
his demand that Johnson preside at the
meeting, he said last night, but he wish
rs a Progressive in the chair when the
Republican candidate makes his bow
to a California crowd.

Republican Candidate For Presi-

SPEAKS IN HALL WHERE
HE WAS NAMED IN JUNE
Chief Trouble With Administra-

"a CHICAGO, August On the Coli
SCUM, where last June the nomination
as his partv's candidate for tn" Presi.
dency was given to him, Charles F..
Hughes last night talked to thousa nd
Of Chicagonus, taking as his theme the
shortcomings Of the Democratic nd.
ministration.
Much that he said the nigi. before
in Detroit he reiterated in Ch'ca~n. and
he added 10 the force of the attack nv
dealing with the administration an.
pointmPnts ami the "rork BARREL"
bill.
During the day the candidate held a
lengthy conference with William r
Wilcox, the Republican rampaign man
ager, and later he shook hands With
more than three thousand persons who
fled past him for hours.
Suffers With Hoarseness
When he came to speak it was found
that his throat was troubling him not
q little, but as he warmed up TO his
subject the hOarscnPss which at first
made IL difficult to undPrsand him wore
off, and his voice became clear once
more.
The Republican candidate wasted NJ
time in beating about the bush. but
went for the Wils"l administration
hammer and tongs from the start. The
Mexican policy of the President again
occupied most of the speakers attcn.
ton, and he used it unsparingly in his
attack.
He characterized the whole Demo.
cratic administration as inefficient.
wasteful, extravagant and vacillatimg.
Wilson Twice Makes War
He denied the claim that has been
made for the President that Wilson
has kept the country out of war. and
declared that Wilson has twice made
war with Mexico and twice "with-
drawn ANONYMOUSLY.
Taking up the question of the ap.
p"intments which have been made by
Wilson, Hughes assailed them as in.

he wohld appoint only competent

they have been named

NEW YORK, August 0.-The federal
authorities, acting in conjunction with
the city health department. have de.
cided to tighten the quarantine owing
to the steady increase in the number OF
eases OF infantile paralysis. Another
consideration that has led to the do,
termination to fight the plague harder
has been the abnormal heat. This has
spread the disease into sections hith.
crtO believed immune from the scourge.
The health department yesterday Is.

plague's raVagPs since the first day OF
last month. In all, there have been

the disease since July l. OF these, 6s5
