The Times and other newspapers re.

campaign with this object IN view. and
the decisions announced today by the

Sir Edward asserts that the situation

Ireland it will be impossible to main

that ireland could provide another

asks what the colonies, which have
made such sacrifices for the empire,

While most of the responsible poll

TOXIC, Oct. 4-The resignation of
Premier Okuma brought to head
the intense struggle between the bu.
reaucratic forces and the advocates
of representative government. which
eliminated in the victory of the bu-
reaucrats by the emperor's designa-
tlon OF Count Terauchi to form a
cabinet.
The selection Of Count Terauchi
is believed to be victory for the
army party.
Premier Okuma aided Baron Kato
In his efforts to form a new ministry
and thus succeeded in amalgamating
the three groups composing the gov
ernment's majority in the house Of
representatives into one great party.
BY this move the new amalgamatiOn
has the Seiyukai, or conservative par
ty, in opposition and brings about a
two party political system in Japan
similar to that in the United States
and Great Britain. The movement
pleased the statesmen of the old
school who feared that it would be

ed states.
For some time there has been con.
siderable agitation in Japan in favor
Of General Terauchi's elevation to the
premiers portfolio, especially by those
who felt former Premier Okuma's poll
cy was too favorable to western ma,
tions and too lenient to China.
Terauchi frequently has been spoken
of In the Japanese press as the man
Of the hour" and his opponents have
criticised him largely because of his
belief in strict censorship of news, the
Importance he has attached to the
military party, and his ayersions to
politicians.
General Terauchi's greatest achieve
ment was the annexation of Korea
Made governor general in 1911, he
was instrumental in revolutiOnizing
the Korean policy Of Marquis Ito and
Viscount Some, his predecessors. Al
the end OF the first month in office
he had secured police powers in Korea
for .Iapan; during the second he &c
cured the right to garrison japanese
troops there. and at the end of the
month, the formal notification OF .he
annexation OF the territory was made
to the powers. He was given grea!
credit for having accomplished thi.
without encOuntering a revolt among
the Koreans.
General Terauchi was born in Sho
shu in 1852, was made sub-lieutenan
in 1891. worked up through various
military positions to supervision of the
transport system during the Chinese
war, became a lieutenant general IL
1897 and later served as an inspector

REFERRING OUT.

We don't knew who Peter was, nor where he lived when he immortalized the namc by simply doing nothing, and giving currency to the phrase at the head of this article; but we do know that no one else has any chance to become famous by simply becoming a quitter.
 The tendency with most modern young men is to switch from one job to another, until they exhaust their ability and settle down to mediocre position. It takes a lot of courage to equip yourself for the battle of Life. The inducements to rock along slipping of each sinful sweet" is toe strong to overcome in many cases, and with SO many nice things to spend money for it is nearly impossible for the average young man to start a bank account.
 Don't peter out. Cultivate habits of industry and thrift. No one ever saw a man worked to death, but we see many killed off by a surfeit of pleasure. Don't be a quitter. Find out what you are best fitted for and stick to it.

 A curious little book Is an old, old treatise on aeronautics by Jean Jacques Rousseau. called "Le Nouveau Dedale."
 Like Leonardo da vinci and Cyrano de Bergerac, Rousseau was haunted by the dream of aerial navigation. We read in his treatise: "Men walk on the earth. they sail on the water and swim in it. Is not the air an element like the others? What business have the birds to shut us out of their premises while we are made welcome in those of the fshesT'

First. to 6nd body lighter than air, 50 that 1t would rise. He imagined that sooner or later such . body might present itself. There was no telling.
 But what stumped him was his sec ond problem-how to make that oblig- ing body stop rising and how in crea' ton to make 1t come down. This was too tough a problem for Jean Jacques. and he wound up his book by admit. ting It.
 For a long time "Le Nouveau De dale" remained unpublished. appearing only fin 1901.
