BOSTON-Ralph S. Baure, for
many years an advocate Of public
ownership Of street railway systems
and free rides for the public, has
suggested to the special state COM
mission on street railways that the
Boston Elevated Railway company's
system should be run on this plan.
In advocating purchase by the pub
lie OF Boston's street railway system,
Bauer asserted that the street car
rider as a money asset to the COM
munity in which he rides" He
claimed that the street cars are used
by those who give something OF per-
manent value to the city, and that
instead of paying for the privilege
Of using the street railway system,
they should be given the opportunity
OF doing so without paying any fare.
Bauer says that high street car
fares are dlseouraging business ex-
pansion. and pointed out that the old
custom OF charging tolls on the
country's highways had the same ef-
feet while that system was In opera
tion.

through the country on his recent
visit recalls to Henry Ballinger, a
resident of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho,
father of Mrs. Ella Oxford of this
city, the recollection of the first
president he ever saw This was
Martin Van Buren,, the eighth presi-
dent of the United States, when that
gentleman was electioneering for Of
flee in 1886.
Accordils to his statement Mr..
Ballineer was engaged with his sis
ter, two years older than he, in the
serious child business Of playing in
puddle of water in their bare feet
when they met Mr.. Van Buren,.
ut was near our home in Gull
ford county, N. c., that l saw Martin
Van Buren," Mr.. Ballinger stated
my sister and I we're playing in the
water running from the watering
spring when we saw two carriages
coming down the big road as we
called the main highway, In the
first carriage was, as we afterwards
learned, Martin Van Buren, and
lady, whom I take it, was Mrs. Var
Buren,. In the second carriage was
a man, whom l believe was the vice
presidential candidate. They stopped
at the spring to water their horses
and Mr.. Van Buren, and the lady
took great enjoyment in watching
us paddle on the water in our bare
feet"
Mr.. Ballinger is 81 years of age
and is as spry as a man of 40. He
immigated to Indiana in 1S4S, and
saw the first engine come into Rich

road bridge across whitewater river

Territory in 1855, was at Lawrence
and took an active part in the Dor

cigarette, cigar, pipe or chewed to-
bacco, or drank glass OF beer, wine
rum, whisky or any intoxicant. II
is one of his boasts that he was
never sick in bed a day in his life.

Victory Pageant Viii
Show Steps in World
Strife in PantOmime

A Victory pageant, in which the
entire city will be interested, is be-
ing planned by the girls of the
Community Service league to be
put on at Long View park on the
evening of July %. The pageant
is a short but beautiful one and the
entire community will work to
make the demonstration a success.
The June issue of the Delineator
contains this pageant which con-
sists entirely of dancing and pan
tomime, there being no spoken
parts whatever. ALI organizations
in the city which did any war work
are to have a part in the pageant.
Rehearsals are to start immed-
lately after the entire cast has
been selected, and the 40 people
who will be needed to make the af-
fair a success will be asked to CO.
operate. Practically all the league
activities will be abandoned during
the next two weeks and all the
time put into working on the page
ant. Any girl of the city who
would be willing to take a part
is asked to come to the league
rooms and receive her assignment
The pageant is divided into three
episodes. The first represents the
time before the world war, when
Joy and Happiness were in the
world. Joy dances with the chill
dren, and all are happy before
Tyranny comes into the world The
nations of Belgium, Great Britain,
France, Italy and Serbia are all
in this episode by dane
ers.
The second episode portrays the
entrance of Tyranny into the
world, together with Misery and
Destruction. France calls to her
associates for help, and they all
come, last of all, America, and to-
gether with her soldiers, sailors
and marines and war workers. Vic
tory overthrows Tyranny in the
last episode and Joy again enters
the world
Bleuer's band is to furnish music
for the affair. through the kindness
of Captain Walter Rosenfield. Elab-
crate preparations are being made
to make the pageant a successful
victory celebration.

JAP DENIES THAT
YANKEES CAUSED
REVOLT IN KOREA

Tokio.-(Correspoldence of The
Associated Press) Reports that
American missionaries melted the
Korean instruction are quite in
correct according to a statement of
X. Yoshizawa, counsellor Of the
Japanese foreign office, who has re-
turned after an investigation Of the
situation in Korea.
Speaking to japanese newspaper
men Mr. Yoshizawa expressed the
view that the disturbances were the
outcome of a collision between the
old-fashioned thought Of the Ten
dokyo cult and the modern thought
produced by the influence of Chris
tianity. Mr.. YoshiZawa continued:
"a lack of perfect understand
ing between japanese and Koreans
is one of the main causes Of the
disturbance, but the principal cause
that led to the uprising is the dis
content and complaint in the mind
of Koreans. which suddenly hr~et
out, prompted by the new born
thought klndled. ny the principe u
INSTRUMENTATION. The simple
and childish political thoughts of
the Korean people can be we'll i'm
agined from the fact that large
number of Koreans come to the
government general at Seoul st the
time of the disturbance in March
and April and inquired of the Off
ciais about the truth of the alleged
independence OF Korea.
How to save the future OF Korea
and Koreans is q grave question
that seriously taxes the brain OF
the Japanese government"

WHY THE NAVY NEEDS MEN.

Secretary Daniels has authorized
the following:
1.-THE navy department announces
that recent press dispatches from
/ Washington outlining recommended
/ lions made TO congress relative to
abandonment of the naval program,
and the order directing the reduc-
ton OF enlisted personnel to $50 900
by July /, have resulted in a large
number OF inquiries As to whether
or not new enlistments In the navy
are being made,
"It is not clear to the layman
why men are being released from
the navy at the same time that an
extensive recruiting campaign Is
being carried on: and IN order to
make this point clear. the depart
ment desires to state that the large
number Of men comprising the
temporary navy came In for patri-
otto reasons to contribute their
help IN the World war. Many of
these young men gave up lucra-
tive positions in civil life. or sac
rilce from one TO two years of
their education; and the navy de-
partment Is making every endaayor
to release this class OF men at the
earliest practicable date.
"a large number of men were
enlisted for the period of the pres
ent emergency, and a still larger
number enrolled in the naval re-
serve force for active duty during
the war only. Upon the ratidca-
6ion OF the peace treaty their con-
tract with the navy expires and az
soon as practicable thereafter they
must be released from active duty.
II does not follow, however. that
the mission of the navy q is COM
pleted; and In order TO carry out
it's operations 1t Is necessary to re-
cruit a large number of men to fill
the authorized strength OF the navy
on a peace basis.
'FPians are now being formulated
for an extensive cruise of the Unit
ed States fleet in tn fall, to give the
men in tha service an opportunity
TO visit various ports as reward
for the excellent service performed
during the period of hestilities;

to avail themselves of the oPpor-
