Some Changes Since
We We're y hoy

1 want to make two com.
parisons-one of the farm
er's attitude toward his
neighbor farmer and one OF
the attitude of the farmer
to the merchant-and this
isn't to convince you that
we should still be going on
in the same old way we
were In those days. That
is. not in every way, but
there were principles that
were paramount in those
days that have practically
ceased to exist. and some of
them we feel to be a great
loss to humanity.
When I was a boy l can
remember well when the
autum days began to get
cold enough that fresh meat
would not spoil for a week
or two; of hearing my
father say. 81 expect we
had better kill a hog for
some fresh meat" then I
was dispatched to the neigh
bors to tell them that on
Thursday we were going to
butcher, and that II they
had time to come over all
right but II not to send one
of the children up in the
evening and get a chunk of
meat. and when Thursday
came there was always
enough to do the butcher
ing and everyone took a
piece OF meat home. Then
in about two or three weeks
some OF the neighbor's chill
dren would come to our
house to inform US that
they were going to butcher
Tuesday. So we had fresh
meat all Of the time, and
it always seemed to me that
all of the naighbors enjoyed
those days more than We
enjoy a street car or an
automobile ride today. Even
the neighbor women would
come and stay all day, help
ing make the sausage and
render the lard. Just a few
years ago ] was living back
in old Missouri again. where

get pretty cool and the

One of the ENJOYS replied: "Our an

Japan, naturally alarmed, demanded
that Russia evacuate Manchuria, and
Russia repeatedly promised to do so,
but never fulfilled her promises. Japan
saw great European power confront
ing her in threatening attitude; per-
haps threatening her very existence
as an independent nation. On Febru-
airy of 1904 she severed diplomaticsre-
lations with Russia and two days later
Admiral Togo made torpedo attack
upon the Russian fleet lying at Port
Arthur, followed by a fleet attack the
following day. By these two attacks
the Russian feet at Port Arthur was
practically put out of commission. On
the day of the last attack japanese
fleet defeated the Russian squadron
lying off Chemulpo.
Japan Declared War.
The next day Japan formally de-
clared war.
The subsequent events Of the war
were the bombardment of Vladivostok
March 6; bombardment of Port Arthur
March 81; occupation of Win at the
mouth of the Yalu river April 6, and
the passage of the river and the defeat
of the Russian army opposing on May l.
The japanese army was now in Man
churia and another japanese army oc-
cupied Korea. The Japanese navy
utterly destroyed Russia's sea power
in the Pacific and the Japanese army,
after series of victories, laid siege to
Port Arthur Another Japanese army
drove the Russians northward in Man
churia and administered a crushing
defeat at Mukden.
The Russian transportation and sup
| ply corps utterly broke down and be-
came useless; grand dukes at the Man
churian headquarters reveled in car
loads of courtesans and champagne
while the soldiers needed food and
clothing, and there was an orgy OF
official graft.
Port Arthur made valiant defense
but surrendered on January l, 1905.
Provisions of Treaty.
BY this treaty Japan and Russia
mutually agreed to evacuate Man
churia, excepting the Liao-tung pc
ninsula, which was taken over by
Japan. Russia transferred her lease
of Port Arthur to Japan, as well as the
railroad connecting Port Arthur with
the Manchurian railroad. The Man
churian railroads were to be used for
commercial purposes only. Russia
ceded to Japan the island of Saghalinn,
great island stretching nertlA and
south along the Siberian coast and
gave Japan fishing rights on all the
Pacific waters Of Russia.
The Russian humiliation was com
plete. Japan had arrived and not
long afterward Great Britain became
her ally.

Metal Manufacturing Industries
Say Forty-Eight-H Period

TOO SERIOUS ECONOMIC LOSS
Even Schedule of Fifty Hours ls
Considered Unwise by the lnves-
tieators-other News of Inter-

A report issued by the national in
dustrial conference board said that
AN investigation of the metal manu-
featuring industries indicated it was
possible for "a considerable portion of
establishments to maintain production
on schedule of so hours week." but
that such a schedule could not be uni
-versally adopted by these industries
without some loss in production"
OF the 4S-hour week the report said !:
t"If both management and workers
would actively cooperate, such a week
might prove practicable in a larger
number of establishments than is now
the case. But unless such co-opera-
'tion is secured there can be little
question that the general adoption of
la 4S-hour week in the metal trades
would involve a serious economic loss
to the nation"

FAMOUS
PEACE TREATIES.
TREATY OF PORTSMOUTH,, 1905.
Japan's Ability to Fight the European.
BY H. IRVING KING

If the war which Japan waged
against China in 1894 demonstrated
to the world that a new power had ap-
peared in the Pacific, still it was ar
gued by the western nations that she
had only fought with Asiatics. They
spoke rather patronizingly of her mil
itary exploits after the treaty of Shi-
monoseki; after the treaty of Ports
mouth they spoke with an admiration
no less sincere because grudgingly be-
slowed. After Shimonoseki Japan was
Il promising younger brother; after
Portsmouth she was nation to be
treated with as an equal and one to
make alliances with.
No sooner had France, Germany and
Russia forced Japan after the treaty
Of Shimonoseki to retrocede to China
the best fruits of the war, the peninsu-
la of Liao-tung, than China turned
around and leased Port Arthur and
LiaO-tung to Russia by lease which
was only a cover for a direct cession.
This little deal between Russia and
China rather chagrined the other two
powers which had joined with Russia
in forcing Japan to retrocede Lao
tung Germany at once demanded as
an equivalent that China leave to her
the city and bay of Kiao-chau on the
same terms as those by which Russia
hold Don't ArEb
France, being an ally Of Russia in the
triple entente, valuing that alliance
very highly, swallowed her chagrin at
her false diplomatic move in joining
in the coercion of Japan, while Great
Britain demanded as an offset to the
Russian occupation of Port Arthur a
lease of the Chinese naval station of
Wei-hai-wei on the north shore of the
Shan-tung peninsula, Pe-chi-li.
Now Held by Japanese.
To dispose of the subsequent fate
of these British and German acquisi-
lions here it may be said that England
did nothing with Wei-hai-wei and final
ly gave it back to China, while Ger
many on the preteXt of a murdered
missionary, formally annexed Kiao-
chau and the surrounding territory
and heavily fortified the place. 1t was
captured by the japanese in the recent
war and is now held by them.
AS soon as Russia got Port Arthur
she turned it into a fortress as nearly
impregnable as she could make it and
constructed a great commercial port
In the neighboring bay of Tallien-wan,
She concluded treaty with China
which gave her control OF the Man
churian railroad and linked it up with
her Trans-Siberian railroad. The
Boxer uprising of 1S99-1900 gave Rus
STA and excuse to pour troops into
Manchuria. Manchuria became, in fact,
a Russian province, and Russia began
to encroach upon Korea. .
