Japan Is Adilitaristic.
Japan. on the other hand with its
fighting aristocracy, the fine sense of
personal honor of it's people, its mill
tary ambitions, is somewhat like the
Prussia Of before 1914.
TO understand the problems of the
Far East, we must first OF an grasp
this essential difference between
China and Japan. In bodily confess
sion. there is not much difference be-
tween the individuals of the two peo-
niles. but the great japanese general
who committed suicide on the DAY OF
his emperor's funeral in order thereoy
TO manifest his admiration for ms

looked at life from the same view

It was then that the feudal military

that imitation of European and Amerl-

Japan of today a powerful nation.

"Coaching'' a witness in the city

worthless check and released Tues

sufficient money to the court house
to make good the check and pay the
costs in the case.
1t was during the trial of Ray
Asher, Bartletts step-son, on charge
of stealing a Ford car, that the al
legged coaching took place. Bartlett
had Just left the witness stand where
he testified in defense of Asher. The
next witness was Mrs. Lizzie Kyle.
Mrs Kyle's manner was arrogant and
she frequently glanced in Bartlett
direction while she was being cross
examined by Paul Edgar, assistant

Bartlett left the court room with
his wife. After the hearing was over
the court ordered that Bartlett be
committed to Jail on the old check

He had paid only half the costs in
the case and had been promising to
pay the balance ever since, it was
said. He had been in Jail only a short
time when the balance was paid and
he was released.

country touches above all else their
personal honor. Some way must be
found by which the national (raciaD
equality which they feel is their right
is preserved to them. but subject to
the third and greatest cardinal point
from cur standpoint, which is:
Preccdcnts Not Wanting.
The japanese must recognize that
we cannot give to them or to the peo-
pie of any other race which does not
assimilate in our melting pot, the IN
limited right peacefully to penetrate
and gradually possess any part of our
country. Therein lies the danger.
Precedents are not wanting.
Rumanians penetrated Hungary in
such numbers that at last Rumania
claimed and received part of Hun
gary. On this part. our people in the
west are determined, fixed and stead
fast.
Some of the lessons which Japan
has been taught by the western powers
must be disavowed. In this connec-
ton it is necessary to go into a brief
historical review of the relations be-
tween the west and the cast, how they
have expanded and the results that
have accrued from them.
Balboa Opened Sea of Troubles.
When Balboa. in 1913, waded into
the Pacific and took possession of
the new ocean III the OF the KING
of Spain, he brought to Europe and
America new opportunities for the con-
quests of trade and war, but he opened
as well, Il sea of troubles and prob
lens,
bringing those shores of the wide
Pacific on the east lie the great prob
lens of China and Japan. and while
those old empires slept their hermit
sleep, the rowing Anglo-Saxons crept
in and peopled the continent of Aus
tralia and fertile New Zealand and ap-
propriated the romantic, magic islands
of the south seas.
Gold discovered in California
brought the Anglo SaxOns to the Pa
cific coast of the United States and
slower settlement brought them to
the western coast of Canada
And still the hermit empires slept

The house paints we specify for your home are the result of 72 years experience in making paints and varnishes for every purpose. Made to stand the peculiarities of western weather.
 The best material-PIONEER WHITE LEAD, pure linseed oil, zinc and color are combined with longtime skill, in sci- entifcally exact proportions.
 Our white lead base must pass through a silk screen with 40,0C0 meshes to the square inch. A patented purifier makes it "whiter," so Fuller paints are exceptionally clear-toned. The paint when finished and applied on the house is beautiful, elastic, tough, protective coating.
 Such paint costs but a triAe more to buy per gallon and is five to ten times more economical in service.
 Don't allow surfaces to rot. It costs less to paint them.
