Canton, China, Sept If they
would only let China alone. she
would get along fine" DR.. Sun Vat
son told me as we sat talking by an
onen window on the second floor
Of the Presidential building. Clouds
were rolling up, obscuring the blaZ-
ing sun and a welcome breeze pour
ed in upon us. setting the cheap
lace curtains f1uttering like white
Hags over his head and mine.
"They?" I questioned.
az mean the foreign powers"
said DR.. Sun with great sadness in
his voice. The Canton president
looks and speaks more like a
dreamer and poet than an empire
bpiIder and throne wrecker. Yet
n was he who threw the Manchu
dynasty into the discard and be-
came first president of China.
He is now asking foreign recog-
milton as legal president OF the
Chinese republic. having been elect
ed by parliament sitting here.
"Do you include the United
States?" j asked.
Japanese Demands.
81 mean Japan" was DIR. Suns
reply. Japan wants nothing less
than a hegemony over China. What
she has done to Korea she would
do to us-make a Japanese colony
of US. Not all Japanese favor such
a policy. but that is the Japanese
militarists' ambition
an japan I was told by liberals
that they would like to forget the
q demands made in 1915 against
China. What do you Think"
THE q demands are just as
much alive today as they were
when they were first presented"
said DR.. Sun. Again mean the
Japanese miIitarists.
"They have not dropped the Il
demands and though they were
baked in their effort to make US
accent them-thanks to publicity
and international opinion-those
same demands are still at the bot
tom of their policy with regard
to China Having but partially sue
ceeded in the first instance, they
hope to arrive at the same end by
some other road"
T.. s. Unposted.
Meantime" I asked, what is
Feking's policy?"
"Peking?r said the president, ris-
ing and closing the window-for a
tropical rain had begun to fall in
enormous drops-"Peking is pow
erless. The Picking government Will
do nothing antagonistic to Japanese
desires. The Picking president-no
longer the legal president of China
because the regularly constituted
parliament, sitting in Canton in
stead of in Picking, has held a new
election-was Japan's choice, any
how.
And there" DR.. Sun interpolat-
ed, SIS where the United States has
hurt China: By recognizing Hsu
Shihchang as president of the Chi
nese republic: But the United States
didn't know. I don't think Ameri-
ca has ever hurt China knowingly.

Tri-eity Railway Company Local
Manager Establishes Force in
Rock Island Barns.

Thomas c. Roderick, manager OF
the Tri-city Railway company's
lines, and his staff of assistants
began the occupancy today OF re-
modelled offices in the Thirtysec-
ond street car barns.
Carpenters and electrical work
ers are still at work, but notwith-
standing that, Mr. Roderick and his
force, consisting of a chief clerk,
bookkeeper, general storekeeper,
and master mechanic, effected the
transfer from Davenport, and be-
gan business in the second floor
rooms OF the building which has
undergone-a few changes to accom-
odate the new tenants. Little has
been done in, the first floor, save
the building OF vault in the rear
of the superintendent office for
the storage of important records.
Most of the changes have been
made in the second floor which will
house Mr.. Roderick and his assis-
tants. The front room on this
floor was formerly used as the
clubroom by the employees, where
the men gathered for pool and bill
lard and ccrd games in their mo-
ments of leisure. This room has
been entirely remodeled into bus
mess office.
The finishings are in oak, and a
hardwood floor has been laid.
Plenty of light has been provided
and there is a good supply Of ven
tilation.
Provide Mems Ciubroom.
Back of this general office is the
locker room for the men, and a
Few sleeping cots have been in
stalled for the benefit of those who
reach the barns after late night
runs This room has been enlarged
slightly.
The room in the rear Of the
locker room, used indiscrimin-
al lectures and sometimes util-
lied for storage purposes, has beer
metamorphosed into the mems
club room, and the pool and billiard
tables have been removed there
and are already in use.
The removal was effected today
in spite of the fact that the cleo
trio lights are not yet installed in
the general managers office. Mr.
Roderick said today that he would
have enough light for the present
at least, and the work on the in
stallation is progressing as rapidly
as possible, and the delay will not
be great.
All the business on the Illinois
side of the river will be handled
from the general office in Rock Is
lanc, and Mr.. Roderick and his
aides expect to keep busy.

LOCAL CHURCHES
SHOW BIC GROWTH
SINCE FIRST step
First Church Founded Two Months
After Town Started; Property
Now Valued at s350.0o1 With
Twelve Denominations.

Chlckasha became a toNa in
April, 1899. and month or two
after the proprietor of the first gen.
eral store started selling goods over
his counter, the organization of the
first church, the Presbyterian, was
effected.
From that meagre start, prompt
though Il was. Chickasha churches
have grown until today IL or more
denominations are represented, the
church buildings in the city have
an estimated value of S350,0OO,
another church building is to be
erected at an approximate cost of
$4,000 with still another congre-
cation laying plans to construct
building. With the first church or
ganized boasting membership of
a score or more of souls, the church
membership IN Chickasha has
mounted to more than $500 accord.
ing to estimates.
All Worshiped Together.
The First Presbyterian church of
Chickasha was organized by Rev.
Chas. II. Miller of El Reno in June,
1892, and the church building was
completed in December of the same
year According to the best infor-
nation obtainable, the first church
services hId here were participate
ed in by members of various relig-
ious faiths, worshiping together.
Eugene Hamilton, first pastor to
occupy regular pulpit in Chickasha
and who is at this time an attorney
here, recalls that following the
erection of the Presbyterian church
services of other denominations
were held there from time to time,
until they each organized and later
constructed buildings of their own.
The first service of the Episcopal
church in Chickasha was held in
Mr. Hamilton's sitting room, he
states, by the Right Rev. Frances
