little since yesterday
And you feel that you would like to run

The vote for recommittal was Al TO

Both parties divided on the roll call

eight Democrats joined the bulk of Re

losses on the vote were offset exactly by
Democratic acceSSionS. as two more Re

ton.

Stormy clashes between Democratic op-
ponents and Republican advocates of re

But they were mild as compared to the
scenes which followed the roll call.

Pacific that Japan may hesitate to per-
nit the racial controversy to be aired
anew, because of the certain effect of such
a policy upon japanese public opinion
Japan realizes that it is perhaps better to
keep such delicate questions within the
secret channels of diplomacy discussion
than to irreconcile racial differences in
an international conference. 1t is be-
lieved that the japanese were in favor
of a separate conference on Far-Eastern
questions i'll London. chiefly because it
would not appear to Japanese public
opinion to be much different from the
AnglO-Japanese conversations which had
been going on there. Ittis the transfer

GOOD NEWS FROM THE COAST

European markets for American goods are
still anything but satisfactory. The waste of
war in many lands, and the waste of industrial
strife in many others. have robbed our best Gus
toners of the ability to buy from us on any
conditions which the financial situation would
make profitable. 1t is otherwise in the Far
East.
The Orient has at last begun TO buy and the
congestion of merchandise in Chinese and Jap
anese ports is being dissipafed rapidly. Coast
shippers are notifying their eastern agents that
there are plenty of cargoes for the ships regular
~ in the trans-Pacihc trade. 1t will not be long
before the ubiquitous tramp steamer will have
a chance for profitable voyages.
Just now wheat, flour and lumber are most in
demand. The Far East has always been a heavy
buyer of American wood, and the orders of
Chinese railways for twelve million ties have
greatly stimulated the trade. Then. too. the
demand for cereals has summed large proper
tons in recent months and it is estimated that
no less than $50, 900 tons Of wheat will go for
ward during the fall and early winter.
The West has had its troubles along with the
rest of the country in the year past, but the
worst of it is over, there as well as elsewhere.
The revival of Far Eastern trade cannot but
have its beneficial effect in every state in the
Union before long.
