TO DISPOSE OF
ANCIENT RELIC

Police patrol and volunteer fire
departments property will be sold.
The Moline police patrol will be
scrapped or sold for whatever the
machine will bring. Last evening
the city council authorized the pur-
chase Of a new car. The old pa
troll was purchased in the spring
of 1910. Thousands of prisoners
have been conveyed to the city and
county jails in it, and almost as
many patients have been taken to
the Moline hospitals in the patrol.
The machine of late has been little
used in the department, for it was
generally stored in a garage, while
the police used Ford. The &C.
ton of the council last night was
the result of more than a years
petitioning by police officials.
The new machine will be q COM
bination patrol and ambulance and
will cost 1885. 1t was ordered
on recommendation OF Alderman
Charles Elmer, chairman of the
police committee.

isfactory to the Japanese people
but it leaves unsolved the problem
of racial expansion, which is press
ing.
"The Japanese still look toward
the western hemisphere as the
only logical ground for immigra-
ton. But contrary to belief in this
country. they are willing to ANAL
gamate with the people among
whom they settle.
Japan does not want Hawaii or
the Philippines. The present fric-
ton has been greatly augmented,
however. by the suddenly increased
garrisons and the extensive forth
fications being erected there.
Frankly, the Japanese people
are extremely nervous over the
possibilities Of aggression from a
nation of such power and wealth
as the United States. They do not
beginning any trouble
Of their own accord.
There is a strong movement in
Japan for reduction OF armament
because the present military and
naval expenses consume more than
one-third the yearly budget and the
people are burdened with heavy
taxes. Any action by the United
States toward such an agreement
would find a hearty response in
Japan. but it must originate with
your country. because of the rela-
i've size Of the two nations"
