FAMOUS
PEACE TREATIES
TREATY OF PORTSMOUTH. 1905.
Japan's Ability to Fight the European.
By H. IRVING KING
I. 1918. by the Mcclure News paper Syndicate)

II the war which Japan waged
against China in 1894 demonstrated
to the world that a new power had ap-
peared in the Pacific, still 1t 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
a promising younger brother; after
Portsmouth she was a 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 a lease which
was only Il 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
held Port Arthur-and China did so.
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
and is now held by them.
As soon as Russia got Port Arthur
she turned 1t into a fortress as nearly
impregnable as she could make 1t and
constructed a great commercial port
In the n%eighbOring bay Of Tallien-wan.
She concluded a treaty with China
which gave her control of the Man.
churian railroad and linked 1t up with
her Trans-Siberlan railroad. The
Boxer uprising of 1s99-19OO gave Rus
and excuse to pour troops into
Manchuria. M~anchuria became, in fact,
a Russian province, and Russia began
encvoach upon Korea.

In certain lines of wOmen's apparel
America has become independent OF
other countries in the production OF
styles and materials. In some things
we are conceded to excel, as in the
designing and making of tailored
suits and shoes. We have been driven
to depend upon ourselves In produc-
Ing the bulk OF the readymade under
wear worn by women whose demands
are peculiarly American.
The proportion of undergarments
made. of washable silks grows larger,
and crepe de chine gains on fine cot
ton materials every day. There are
several very good reasons for this,
but the main one is the Unborn love
or luxurious clothes. especially In
the matter of undergarments, which Is
rooted I'm the eternal feminine nature.
Hand stitching is the hallmark of
elegance on undermuslins, so that
women who know how to sew for them
selves have a great advantage over
those who do not. But there il NOT.

Moral Issues.

fuse. men are beginning to see moral
issues more clearly; that all issues
are moral. Every commercial and in
dustrial question is moral. Huge
gains no longer blind us to the meth
DDS by which they were made. The
philanthropy Of the giver no longer
sanctifies the rapacity of the gamer.
In all the whirl and confusion, the
dust and the uncertainty Of the hour,
the eclipse is passing from the ten
commandments and the golden rule.
Good ethics IL good business. We are

saving of sugar Is not so vital now, but
we still need to use economy so that
foreign nations may have a share.
A handful of raisins added to al
most any fruit salad adds to its flavor
and richness.
For a toothache one of the pleasant
remedies is a split raisin, sprlnkled
with a few grains of cayenne; press
the pieces together and place the
raisin on the gum nearest the tooth. A
hot raisin is said to cure earache.

Our relations with France have gen.

from the founding Of the nation until
the present day that most people have
forgotten that we were ever at war
with her. But we were. from the
spring of 1898 to September, 1900.
James Monroe was minister to
France In 1896 when the Directory
which had succeeded 20 the "Terror OF
R~obespierre" informed him that the
treaty of ITS between France and the
United States was Mt an end because
America had signed the treaty with
England known as Jays treaty. Mr..
Monroe replied that the treaty Of 177S
had already been brought to nothing
by the constant capture Of American
ships by French men of war. France,
under the Terror, had regarded the
rest OF the world In the same light as
the Russian bo%lshevists do now. Amer
lean merchant ships were captured and
condemned and sold.
Mr.. Monroe was too plant he was
recalled, and Charles Cotesworth
Pinckney was sent over In his place.
The Directory from purely selfish mo-
tives continued the policy Of claiming
exemption from international law
which the Terror had begun In the
hame Of liberty. The French govern
nent would not receive Pinckney and
ordered him out Of the country. Presi-
dent Adams called a special session OF
congress and recommended the prompt
Of a navy and the permits

FORTY TO ONE FOR
N. HIGHWAY DISTRICT
Vote On Creation New Highway
District, Tuesday, Indicates
County Road Sentiment

The Mohler- Central Ridge sec
tion voted the creation Of the
North Highway district in this
county last Tuesday by 40 votes
for and one against the project.
This fairly represents the senti-
ment for better roads in Lewis
county, and particularly in the
Central Ridge country, which
has been a leader in maintain
ing good roads. The election
was held at the Sunset school
house, two miles north of Moh-
ler, and a larger vote would
have resulted. but the sentiment
was so unanimous for the crea-
tion of the district that many
felt it needless to attend the
election.
This district embraces about
Al 900 acres of the finest land in
the country and carries an as
sessed valuation of about $1,145,-
900. It's creation looks to the
construction of the best possible
road exending north and south
through its center with suffi-
cient laterals to serve all Sec
tions.
The next move in the county
along this trend will be the pres
of petitions, tomorrow,
to the county commissioners for
the calling of an election on the
creation of the Prairie Highway
district, embracing the territory
lying between the Central, North
and Kamiah Highway districts.
