DELUGED WITH PROTESTS.
Ch;na's Delegates Warned Against
NEGOTIATIONS With Japan.

The Chinese delegation to the con-
ference on far eastern questions has
been deluged within the past two
days with cablegrams from all parts
oil northsrn China sent by trade
bodies. education societies and other
against direct negotiations with
Japan over the Shantung issue. The
tenor of most of the dispatches was
that the Chinese people would coun-
tenance nothing short of an absolute
guarantee from Japan that she would
concede all the rights she has lately
claimed that were formerly held by
Germany. The Shantung railway
controversy was particularly stressed
IN several of the wires, according to
AN oiucIai OF tne Chinese deieSa,io ion
here.
1t is pointed out at Chinese head
buarters that ever since China with
drew from the Versailles conference
because OF the disagreement over
the Shantung question. a fervid feel
ing against direct negotiations has
been growing among the Chinese
people. IL is felt there. IL was said
by the Chinese spokesm here. thai
i. the Japanese are sincere in their
expressed Willingness to forfeit their
claims in Shantung. then there is no
plausible excuse to negotiate. These
cablegramS, the speaker said, have
led the delegation to believe that
the present outcry against the direct
negotiations has spread through all
China and has overshadowed every
other question in which the Chinese
are interested at the present time.

Canned Kings

The man who's once held down a
throne is good for nothing else. 1t
seems, and though he's exiled and
alone, the reigning graft still nils
his dreams. King Carl tried twice
to nail the crown that war had
lifted from his brow; his former
subjects turned him down, and he Is
on the hogtrain now. And people
say ex-Kaiser Bill yet dreams OF
going back once more, to ply a
scepter with the skill that got him
in the soup before. And doubtless
Kronprinz William hopes to be
monarch, wearing bells. as he is
sliding down the slopes of that far
island where he dwells. To be
king these days and reign. and wear
a brass. machine-made hat! Oh. no
one can be safe and sane. and long
to hold a job like that. Once kings
could sit around in state and watch
the palace fountain squirt, but that
bright day has pulled it's freight,
and monarchs now are cheap as dirt.
Once kings were proud and naughty
gents, with courtiers kneeling at
their feet, but now they look like
thirty cents, and wish they had
enough to eat. Far better saw five
cords of elm, with moisture on the
regal brow, than try again to rule
a realm, the way all kingdoms stack
up now.
