THE WAR AND THE
FOREIGN TRADE
OF CHINA

A recent number of the London

harrison. political adviser to the pr /
esident Of China, now on a visit to !
Australia. who said some interating |
things In a Melbourne newspaper in |
regard to China,s trade relations |
with Australia that apply with equal
force to her trade relations with other |
countries.
Said DR.. Morrison:
When China declared war against |
Germany and Auatria on August IA |
she did Germany an infinite amount |
of harm. Not only were all German
and Austrian share of the Boxer
indemnity, amounting to $65,000,000
confiscated, but all treaties with Ger
many were terminated. After the war
therefore. China will have new treat
les. in which she will be able to make
very much better terms for herself.
BY declaring war she struck an econ
omic rather than military blow at
Germany Though the latter will
Gomez, because those vast areas OF
unexpected country which Germany
hoped to exploit after the war are
are now closed against her. That Ii

ons are restored? 1t is very import

MEAT MUST PASS
INSPECTION

The Army consumes about 2,0O0.-
900 pounds per day of fresh beef.
This necessitates the slaughter daily
of 1000 cattle. Official inspectors
scrutinize every part of this supply

to the abattoir until 1t vanishes from
the mess tin Of the soldier.

Only slight changes were mado in

the county districts according to the
lists filed by the assessors yesterday.
In practically every district there
were few removals or additions. so
that county officials expect little
change IN the vote in November in

Registration in the city yesterday
was light.

VARIETY BILL
WINS APPLAUSE
Good Juggling Novelty at Ma
jestic; Comedians Are
Popular

Variety entertainment came into
the last half of the week. the con-
trasting offerings winning much ap-
plause. During the last few weeks
at times vaudeville musical COM
edy held sway and the return to the
changing acts seemed to please last
night.
Back Stage'-Billy West plays
in this movie comedy which is fair
ly entertaining.
Johnson-This clever aerial artist
has some interesting feats which he
performs with skill and ease, some
thing which always brings applause.
Duval and Symond-In dialogue
and song they put across some hu-
morous twists which start the
laughs.
''Thc OwI'-Phil Adams is starred
in this miniature musical comedy
and in reality does most of the en-
tertaining, although some of the
song numbers are good. More COM
edy chatter would improve the Offer
ing.
Smith and Troy-It didn't take
the crowds long last night to see
that these two boys would do some
real entertaining both in song and
fun, and as they continued their
work the applause increased.
Maestro and Co.-The juggling
and balancing work was so fascinat-
ing that at the first show in the
evening only a few left before the
last curtain, an unusual record for
such an act as the close of a bill
which shows that exceptionally good
turns will keep the crowds until the
act is over.
