Eastern league for next season at a
league meeting held at Worcester. Mass,
Monday. This was The most important
item of interest at the meeting, but an
other interesting fact developed was that

Duffy will probably not be in the league
next year and his Portland club may be
transferred to Fitehburg. Duffy has
something else in mind that he is not
ready to disclose. Many difficulties were
settled at the meeting, among them being

legged discrimination shall be withdrawn
1t is not necessary for the new premier
to take any new steps in order to bring
the matter up as aggressively as he
pleases. He has only to reassert the po-
sition already taken, which the late gov
eminent allowed to pass into allegiance

Count Terauchi's statement with re-
gard to China is no more reassuring. In
fact, it outlines a continuance of Japa-
nese guardianship" over that country.
He desires that China shall benefit, like
Japan, from "the fruits of the world S
civilization" The japanese and Chinese,
he says, have sprung from the same
stock" and their future destiny is a
destiny" As the Chinese them
selves do not see it in that way at all,
but imagine that they have future and
a destiny of their own, the words of
Count Terauchi indicate that he surely
has policy to enforce upon China. His
words are essentially menace.
Washington must face this menace. II
viii take strong and wise executive,
secretary of state, to face it.
Already it must have been observed that

SOMME BATTLE
NEAR CRISIS
German Report Says Enemy Losses
are Heavy and Foes are Bleeding
to Death.

Berlin, via wireless to Sayville, i. l..
Oct. lS.-"The tragedy on the Somme
seems near a climax" said the Overseas
New agency yesterday, reporting fright
full French and English losses in recent
unsuccessful attempts to break the Ger
man lines north of the river.
| When the British rushed forward for
an attack near Guedecourt, the 9th Ger
man infantry division left their destroyed
positions and standing in the face of the
approaching enemy turned loose rife and
machine gun fire into dense masses of adj
vancing enemy troops. These crowded
columns were in some places literally
moved down.
At the main centres of fighting, espe-
cially before Pierre st. Vast wood, east
of Combles, barbados OF Anglo French
eorpses were formed.
Detailed reports show that the at
tacks between Oct. 9 and Il are to be
counted among the largest fighting ac-
tions OF the whole Somme battle" writes
the military critic of the news agency.
"The objects of these huge French and
onne
"0f these engagements those north OF
the Somme showed the highest intensity.
During the days of Oct. Q, 10 and ii es-
pecially the district north of Thiepval
and north of Courcelette, near Sally and
on the ST. Pierre-Vaast wood, were the
main centres of combat. On the 18th
great well-connected attack was launched
against the whole front from Courcelette
to Souain- Bouchavesnes."
"The tenacious defenders of the Somme
front had thought it impossible to ex
coed the violence of the drumfire used
during the great attack of the first days
of October" continued the military crit
ic; "but this was now done by the ar
tillery fire of the 18th and 18th.
Nevertheless, and in spite of the ter
rife hail of iron, the English and French
did not succeed in making the German
positions ripe for storming The French
and English storming columns started in
compact, crowded waves, but soon came
to standstill in well aimed German cur
tain fire. In spite of heavy losses they
attempted uninterruptedly one advance
after another against the German posi-
tions. Near Sally they six times
launched attacks for storming, but all
these thrusts failed completely.
at becomes more and more probable
that the French and English will bleed
to death on the unsuitable German front
Just as the Russians did in Galicia."

The Warning from Japan.

Field Marshal Count Seiki Terauchi is
the new premier of Japan. The appoint
ment as prime minister of the field mar
shall, and OF a member of the ancient
Samurai, who exercises in their own
country relatively the same influence as
that which the Prussian military caste
exercise in Germany, is in itself a some
| what disquieting circumstance to the
nations who have any sort OF issue on
hand with the japanese empire Strong
ly cautious influences have always been
at work in Japan heretofore. Under the
late Emperor Mutsohito, these influences
were potent. The wisest men of the EN-.
pire were his advisers, quite outside of
the whirl of party and personal politics
which now seem to be uppermost in the
country. The present emperor is not so
wise man as his father He has exer.
cised no restraining hand upon the wars
of intrigue which have arisen in Toxic.
Yet after all it is impossible to suppose
that all the conservative checks have sud
denly been lost, or that Japan will pass
all at once under the control of mill
tary adventurer who will plunge the
country into war, ii possible.
But when all is said that may be said
for an assumed pacific control at the back
of things in Japan, the fact remains that
the premiership of Terauchi is essential
ly menace to the relations between that
country and the United States. Nor is
the menace lessened by the supposedly
pacific interview which Count Terauchi
has given to correspondent of the As
ISOLATED Press at Toxic. 1t is true that
in this interview Count Terauehi dis
claims any intention to wave the sword"
and that he declares that his appoint
ment is mot revolutionary, not aggres-
sive, not militaristic, but constructive"
But Count Terauchi's qualifications, in
this very interview, are more significant |
than his afiirmations. He says; 80 long |
as Japan's vital interests and dignity are /
not infringed, Japan will take no agrees !
sive step toward any nation" Now the (
claim which the japanese have particu- |
larly set FORTH in their complaints !
against the California land laws and the
rules excluding Japanese children from
the public schools in that state, and also
with regard to their exclusion from
by our federal laws, is

'ringed by these regulations. They say
hat by these rules they are classed with
Inferior races. That is the point OF their
objection. Under Count Terauch's quail
fication, aggression seems to be particu-
arly indicated toward the United States,
{ the state of California maintains these
'lleged determinations or if the United
states continues to limit the right to be-
ome citizens to white persons and those
# African nativity or descent. We seem
o be given by Premier Terauchi our
hoice between withdrawing these in '
