that in consequence of higher prices

JAP SOLDIER
 PASSES AWAY
Associated Press)

TOKYO, Dec. 1O.-Delayed)- Field Marshal Prince Iwao Oyama, commander in chief of the Japanese Manchurian army during the Russo Japanese war, died here today. He was seventy-four years of age, hay ing been born in 1S42
 Prince Oyama had always been a military man. In 1869 he was sent by his government to Germany to observe the tactics used in the Franco-Prussian war. Later he was sent on several important official missions. In 1877 he fought on the tide of the Imperialists during the Japanese revolution, and was made chief of staff of the Imperial army in 1882 after the war was over. He was made minister of war in 1885.
 As tactician, Field Marshal Oyama was unsurpassed, according to various military authorities. In fact, the successeJ of the Japanese during the Russo-Japanese war were generally attributed to his knowledge of tactics.

WILD DOCS T0 WESTWARD ID
 GREAT DAMAGE
Associated Press)

SEWARD, Dec. 1O.-Delayed) )- Destruction of the large packs of wild dogs which infest the Alaskan peninsula from Unalaska to Nush- agak is sought by Dr. L. French, medical officer for the school at Kanakanak, who Is here attending the present term of court. Dr. French says he will bring the mat ter to the attention of the next ter ritorial legislature, which will be asked to provide bounty law where under the dogs may be killed
 The movement for the destruc tion of the dogs is supported by the claim that reindeer can be used for the same purposes of transpor- tation that the dogs are used for. It is pointed out that the destruc- tion of the dogs would permit the reindeer to increase in number more rapidly, thus furnishing ample trans portation as we'll as food supply.
 Native dogs breed rapidly, and al though these creatures are of con siderable value in the winter time as sled pullers, the destruction of animal life and an occasional human being during the year outweigh any good derived, according to Dr. French.
 No living animal can exist around the settlements in western Alaska except the large bands of dogs, in which the weaker ones are continual ly being killed off by the stronger" said Dr. French. Hogs. chickens. sheep or any other domestic animal must be kept behind strong fences, and cannot at any time be allowed to graze on the luxuriant grass which abounds on the ranges"
 At the government hospital for natives conducted at Kanakanak many cases have been treated where

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. Il. -Oelayed) ~ident Wilson eyi- dently does not believe that liter acy should be made one of the quail fications of immigrants coming to America from some foreign country For it has become definitely known that he has threatened to veto the immigration bill now being consid cred by congress if it passes with a provision for literacy test as one of it's chief features.
 Early during his present admins tration President Wilson vetoed a similar bill. Presidents Cleveland and Taft were forced to veto immi- grafton bills during their respective administrations for like reasons. President Wilson, however, advo- categ legislation which would keep undesirables from coming to this country from abroad But he will not stand for any kind of a literacy test being provided for. He hopes that he will not have to withhold his signature from the bill if con gress passes it by a good majority.
 Senator Works, of California, has produced an amendment to the bill providing for the exclusion of Asi- atico by prescribing certain geo. graphical areas from which immi- grants shall not be allowed to come. No races were enumerated in the amendment, but the prescribed area includes Japan.
 Senator Reed favors a further amendment to the bill, providing for the exclusion of various Teutonic races and of Africans. His amend ment met with heated debate
