Weather Reminder

This damp bad weather that has
prevailed in the city for the past
few days reminds many of the ex-
soldiers of the Cline of "Sunny
France" for the greater part of the
winter of 1918. From the middle of
November to February rain was al
most a daily visitor and the ground
absorbed the water like a sponge
Of course the ground is always GOV.
cred with vegetation there and the
rains are rarely heavy enough to
wash the soil into gullies. There
were not many days uncomfortably
cold.

RUSS INTERESTS
State Department Will Not Rec.

TO SHIELD WHOLE COUNTRY
American Note Tells the Far Eastern
Republic Rights of Museovy Will
Be Protected in Forthcoming
Arms Conference,

Washington, Sept. 20-Assurances
that Legitimate Russian interests"
will be carefully guarded at the arma-
ment and Far-Eastern conference have
been conveyed to the Russian people
by the State department.
The assurances were contained in a
message which was directed to the au-
thorities of the Far Eastern republic
at Chita in response to the request Of
the republic that it's representatives
be admitted to the conference. The
department announced that it's reply
delivered through the American minis
ter at Picking, embodied the observa-
tons of the United States government
On the general subject of Russia's DO
sition.
Chita Not Recognized.
The Chita governments request was
handed to the American minister at
Peking but the American government
made no formal reply, since the So
called Far Eastern republic has not
been recognized by the United States
or other governments. The American
minister at Picking, however, was in
structed to convey the American views,
which were paraphrased in an an
nouncement by the department as fol-
lows:
"In the absence of a single recog-
niZed Russian government the protec-
ton of legitimate Russian interests
must devolve as a moral truSteeship
upon the whole conference. 1t is ye-
grettable that the conference, for rea-
sons quite beyond the control Of the
participating powers, is to be deprived
Of the advantage of Russian co-opera-
ton in it's deliberations, but it is not
to be conceived that the conference
will take decisions prejudicial to legi-
Innate Russian interests or which
would in any manner violate Russian
rights.
U. S. Reply Voices Hope.
ut is the hope and expectation Of
the government of the United States
that the conference will establish gen.
eral principles of international action
which will deserve and have the sup
port of the people of Siberia and of all
Russia by reason of their justice and
efficacy in the settlement Of outstand-
ing difficulties" r..>.
The State department has recently
sent to Chita John Caldwell, consul.
for temporary service, with instruc-
fi0nc RI observe and rQnOrt TO tha de-
partment developments in that region.
1t was declared, however, that Cald-
wells presence in Chita did not imply
recognition.
Sufficient assurances, formal and in
formal, are understood to have been
received by the State department from
the different powers invited to the con-
ference to make it appear that Hol-
land and Belgium have seats at the
conference when it discusses Far East
,ern subjects.

DAVIS SAYS fewer men
IDLE NOW THAN IN 1914
Labor Secretary Declares General
Situation for Workingman Is Good
All Business Getting Better.

Washington, Sept. 15.-ThoSe who
are disturbed over the 5,735,OOO unem-
ployed of today overlook that in 1914
there were 7,OOO,OOO out of work, a
larger percentage of whom were men
and actual breadwinners than in the
present unemployed, Secretary Davis
said in statement.
Declaring that the country has just
passed through a period when every
effort was made to induce women and
others who had not worked for wages
or salaries before to ''wOrk and save
starving Europe" Mr.. Davis said pres
ent unemployment figures include great
numbers Of persons upon whose earn
ings no one actually is dependent
"While we have our unemployed, let
US not forget the 100000 who are
still at work." the statement said. "A
further encouraging fact is that $780,
100000 now Is available about the
country in the form of bonds already
issued or appropriated by the state,
county and municipal governments for
public works. Undoubtedly this will
be organized intelligently."
Positive signs of business recovery
have been furnished by the commits
sioner of labor statistics, Secretary
Davis declared, adding:
"Some of these signs have an aspect
Of their own. put them out for 9TH
ers to interpret as they please. But
one must have his head very much in
the air these days not to notice the
growing prevalence of silk hosiery and
the use Of silks in general"

I notice with pleasure that the work

who will do the purchasing of the

they will not buy any galvanized cor
rugated wash tube, like the one our
next door neighbor has on his pond,
because that is the hardest boat ]
have rowed; and I have rowed a
good many and all kinds.

War First in Mind of Kafir.

The Kafir's ritual of worship, such
as it is, consists of war dances and
wild appeals to the god of war.
Throughout these ceremonies there is
interviewer a curious thread of Zorro
astrianism, and Hinduism, as we
might expect, but mainly it is pure pa
ganism, and the god whom they de-
light chiefly to worship is their god
