Agitation in Japan.

a press cable from Toxic says:
WaSeda University. of which Mar
quiS Okuma was the founder and is
its president. will start campaign
against the anti-Japanese agitation
in America with the object of arous-
ing public opinion. The Asahi quotes
Marquis Okuma as condemning the
indifference of the people to grave
questions affecting the nations inter-
ests ard saying they are becoming
like the Chinese-weak and cowardly.
The will of the majority of the jap
anese people must be known the
marquis declared. according to the
newspaper. Marquis Okuma contin-
ued. the Asahi says, by saying that
if the California question were not
remedied it would lead to similar
state of affairs in Australia. Canada
New Zealand and other British do
minions."
The feeling about the Japanese in
the British possessions mentioned has
its root in the same thing from which
the American feeling springs-the I'M
assimilability of the japanese. They
do not mix well with the English In
numbers they would not contribute
to the public welfare as conceived and
carried forward on English lines by
Englishmen. Hence they are not well
come in English colonies.
But the fact does not interfere with
the political relations that exist be-
tween the two governments. The
japanese government and the British
government are allies, and work to-
gether satisfactorily for mutual bene.
fit.
There is no reason why the feeling
in this country respecting japanese
immigration should interfere with the
friendly relations that exist between
the japanese government and this
government. Those relations are of
long standing, and have promoted
much good to both governments. The
japanese have frequently acknowl-
edged their Indebtedness to America.
We had the pleasure of drawing them
out of their isolation and introducing
them to occidental progress. And
since then they have made wonderful
progress. -
There should be no anti-American
agitation in Japan, nor any anti-Jap-
anese agitation in America. Delicate
as the question in hand is it can be
settled by peaceable means. Japan
could not afford war with America on
the immigration question.

The Weather Turning Point.

September is hard month to guess.
1t is the turning point of the year
insregard to temperature. and it has
some of the aspects of summer and
some of autumn. On Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday of this week it
was hot enough for the lightest of
midsummer clothing. Thursday, the
last day of the month, overcoats were
indicated" and the vestless man
suggests furnace fires, yet nobody
wants to start them so soon. especial
ly with the supply of coal a doubtful
quantity. Blessed is the householder
who has an open CRATE and a bit of
soft coal or perhaps few old boxes
in the cellar, with which to make
fire. There is distinct pleasure in
CRATE fires at this season. They may
smoke up the house a little before the
chimney gets tempered, but they
brighten the atmosphere and take off
the chill" 1t is assured that there
will be warm weather before the win
ter comes. Indian summer is yet to
come. Heavy overcoats will not be
the continuous wear, even though
frost may be recorded in this present
chilly snap.

still. as once it did at Joshua's com.
mand. days and nights would be of
equal length
But in fact the weather records
show that the cutting across the
earth's middle by the sun has no
more influence on storms than has
st. Swithin on St. Patrick. One might
also say that it has no more influence
on storms than has inauguration day,
but that might be taking ground so
advanced as to be difficult Of defense.
Many of our beliefs are based on CO.
medicines
Any storm of wind or rain two or
three weeks before or two or three
weeks after the sun crosses the line
is the equinoctial storm 1t is not
out some rain or blow. When %the
nights are lengthening, the sun rays
slanting more and more, and when
the earth is radiat ting more heat than
it receives and the leaves and grasses
are fading. Il storm does seem more
sad and dismal than one that comes
in April. May or June. And if you in
sist on having an equinoctial storm,
and if you get content from such a
storm, let us neither shake your faith
nor jar that sweet content.

Roosevelt.

Theodore Roosevelt is still an in u
ence to be reckoned with, as witness
that both sides are quoting him freely
in this campaign.
Gov. Cox reads to his audiences edi-
torials written by Mr.. Harding in 1912

from Mr.. Roosevelt down. Last night
moosers dose of this medicine. Kan
sas was Roosevelt stronghold in
Roosevelt's day.
Strangely enough. at the same time
the republican national committee
from its headquarters in New York
was giving out an address by Mrs.
Edith Roosevelt. widow of Mr.. Roose-
welt, appealing for votes for Harding
and Coolidge, and declaring that their
election is the country's vital need"
She addresses herself particularly to
women. for whose Acknowledgement
Mr.. Roosevelt worked.
OF course, the files of Mr.. Harding's
newspaper yield some printed articles
aimed at the man who eight years
ago was leading movement for the
destruction of the republican party,
and which succeeded in defeating the
party in that campaign. The pointed
way was the only way to oppose man
whose own way was as pointed as
that of Mr.. Roosevelt.
The answer is conveyed in a IA
nliliar phrase. That is old stuff. Mr..
Roosevelt changed his views about the
republican party, and Mr.. Harding
changed his views about Mr.. Roose-
welt. Mr.. Roosevelt died republican,
and Mr.. Harding has declared that if
he had lived and been nominated for
President this year, he, Harding. would
gladly have stumped for the ticket.
And il Mr.. Roosevelt had lived and
become the republican nominee, all
he had ever said in the days of his
bull moosery against the republican
party would have been drawn on him.
A great old world, this, and a great
old game is politics.

Equinoctial Storms.

The equinox is fixed in our habit of
thought and at this season an equi-
noctial storm must come. Persons
who would not stoop to pick up a pin
that points toward them and who
would not sit at dinner with twelve
will insist on an eaui-
noctial storm.
The storm of the equinox can be
cleared up with a little reason and a
few facts. if you are willing to admit
weather bureau records as facts.
Equinox is not more logical than
equidies, for when there is equality
of night there must be equality of
day. But even this equality does not
last for a whole night CT a whole
day. When the sun crosses the equa-
tor-and, Of course. it does not cross
it-there should be momentarily an
equal distribution Of light on the two
hemispheres. and if the sun stood

Hecklers and Heckling.

Of honest interest. asks a question.
His manner and respectful bearing
proclaim him. The speaker is at pains
to give him the information he seeks
The crowd makes no objection. The
senuineness Of the episode carries it
through.
But the heckler who has come to
the meeting for the express purpose
Of interrupting the speaker, and, if
possible, Of embarrassing him, pro-
claims himself by his chip-on- shoulder
bearing and tone Of voice. He is a

with him. Not even the speaker can
secure hearing for him. He is rated
as simply a trouble maker, and as
such put down.
Some speakers welcome hecklers

cutand.thrust with a plant if the
crowd win allow. They realize that
the performance lacks dignity, but
they are willing to unbend now and
then for entertainments sake: and
they make a show of their interroga-
tors.
But there are speakers, and very
forcible ones, who are easily embar-

A heckler to such a speaker is as an

may be harmless.
Heckling in its true estate is not a
bad thing, but by an ill-disposed per-
son may easily be converted into a
nuisance.

Newspaper Changes.

October l will be a date notable in
the history of American journalism
For with that date disappears the
name of one of the best known news
papers in the eastern part of the
nited States. the Philadelphia Press,
and it is also marked by the dropping
of the Sun as the name of New York
morning paper after long existence
The passing of the Press is due to it's
absorption by the Philadelphia Public
Ledger. Its suspension as a separate
publication is one of the consequences
of the shortage of newsprint paper,
which has troubled newspaper pub
fishers through the United States for
many months. The Press has had
long and honorable career as worthy
exponent of American journalism, and
it's passing is like the destruction of a
landmark
The New York Sun does not disap-
pear. Its name is shifted to the even
ing edition in consequence of the ac-
QUESTION by Mr.. Frank A. Munsey of
the New York Herald some time ago.
Until October l the Sun bore the COM
posite name of. both papers. Now the
morning edition will be the New York
Herald and the evening edition the Sun.

AN ABUSE OF

County Division L. . Local Issue,
but People Of Entire State Are
Asked to Vote on Two County
Division Measures.

Out In Eastern Colorado two ambi-
tfous towns are making use of the In
itiatfve and Referendum laws to create
from portions of Lincoln. Ebert and
Kit Carson Counties, two new coun-
ties. with themselves as prospective
county seats.
The originators Of these bills, real
estate agents Of the towns of Limon
and Tlagler, obtained their petitions to
refer them to the people of the entire
state through the employment Of pro-
fessional circ,lators at 10 cents per
name. secured mostly in Denver and
Pueblo. Owing to the fact that the
sparsely populated counties affected
have neither the organization nor the
means to educate the voters of the
state ON the merits or demerits of
these proposed measures prior to cleo
tion, 1t will mean that probably 90 per
cent of the people called upon to vote
on them must do so with no knowledge
whatever Of the issues involved.
There is no argument In favor Of the
bills The three counties called upon
to give up practically so per cent of
their assessed valuation for the bene-
fit of Flagler and Limon and their en-
terprising real estate spectators are
barely able to support their present
county governments, and the passage
Of these acts means bankruptcy to
