ECONOMIC MATTERS
WORRYING JAPAN

Toxic, (by mail.)-Warning that ad-
verse economic conditions may develop
in japan as n result Of the val was
given by the Japanese premier, Count
Terauchi, in an address delivered re-
Gently before the annual meeting of
the clearing house banks. Responsible
ity Of averting a disaster, he said, rest
ed upon the bankers Of Japan.
The premier remarked that the nee
essity of industrial independence had
been wildly brought home to Japan in
consequence of the war and ii was be-
cause of this that the government had
introduced into the last session Of the
diet projects tending towards the
achievement Of this independence.
Mr.. Shoda, finance minister, who fol-
lowed Count Terauchi, said that the
government in compiling the estimates
fo- the current fiscal year paid the ut
most attention to the perfection of the
national defense. A project was mapped
out for the building of two battle
cruisers, three cruisers and rs other
warships of all sorts at n total cost to
$3.50, 250, 900, the disbursements of
which was to be spread over six years,
This together with the expenditure OF
S141, 500 900 which had already been
fixed, would brin5 the total naval ey-
penditures to be betrayed during the
next six years to about 1922, 900, 900.

Checks in Gaelic.

A little plant from u bank clerk.
Lately, he says, there have been
checks circulating In this country
printed in Gaelic script. Naturally,
they are Irish ones, and probably
drawn by enthusiastic Sim Feiners.
But what can be the object of intro
ducing another terror to the already
worried and ~overworked bank clerk
upon whom falls the task of obtaining
a translation? And the Irish check
is not the only sinner in this respect,
For a long time the EsperantiSts wrote
the amount Of their checks in Esper-
anto and became n nuisance to the
banks.-London Chronicle.

News has been received in No
gales of the death in the Sisters
hospital at Los Angeles, on the
18th, of Frank Crocker, at the
age of 62 years, following an op-
Grafton for a tumor.
Mr.. Crocker was well known
in this entire region, having
been connected with the Sonora

long period, and numbered his
friends by the hundreds through
Southern Arizona and Sonora.
He was a son of General
Crocker, commander of the Iowa
