JAP EDITORS FAVOR
 CIVIL RULE IN KOREA

TOXIC, May 17.-Japanese editors are advocating a radical change in ad- ministration in Korea, with civil au- thorities substituted for the military. This is a result of the recent uprising in Korea. They would give the the Koreans some hand in the govern ment. Military officials are making as an excuse for an iron hand in silenc- ing revolters, the fear of a Bolshevist outbreak. The governor general of Korea has admitted indiscretion on the part fthe military agents in some of the Korean villages.

Eats 3S eggs-dies-headline.
 It is already assumed that the vic- tim was quite wealthy. Who is it nowadays that could afford to buy 36 eggs, might we ask?
 And since they've changed the name of Hogwollow to Hogville to make it more dignified and assure the future of the town as a respectable community might we not suggest that Brewery Gulch be'changed to TYo-Per- Cent hill, because it's got just about that much of grade.
 Shooting stray dogs seems to be a popular pastime nowadays.
 The fact that Mrs. Wilson was pres ent when the Germans were handed the peace terms shows that while the president had quite a lot to do with the shaping of the treaty still there are few things fH which he probably merely seconds the motion.
 The fact that one of the German delegates got weak in the knees when he replied to Clemenceau's informal speech of presentation shows that Germany is on her last legs.
