JAPAN MAKES
PEACE OFFER
Diplomatic Conversations
With u. S. Are Reported
Under Way.

~ NitfU EitNS
WASHINGTON. March 21.-The
japanese government has inau-
gurated direct diplomatic converse
tions with the United States in an
effort to bring about an immediate
amicable settlement of all Far
Eastern questions pending between
this country and Japan, it was
officially revealed today.
The diplomatic converse tons,
which we're started just a month
ago, were revealed today with the
simultaneous publication in Toxic
and Washington of the texts OF
messages exchanged between the
japanese foreign minister, Kioki
Hirota, and Secretary of State
Cordell Hull.
Two impending momentous inter
national events impelled the
japanese foreign Office to seek such
a settlement at an early date, in
the opinion of informed observers,
official and unofficial, here. These
are:

ence which is scheduled to be called
in 1886, at which it is anticipated
Japan will ask for a larger naval
ratio than is allotted her under the
Washington and London naval
treaties;
2. The possibility of war between
Japan and Russia, which many
authorities believe may break out
within the next few months.
The messages are couched in I'M
usually wary diplomatic language
and neither directly mentions the
forthcoming naval conference or the
strained relations between Japan
and Russia In fact, they are so
cautiously worded that careful read
ing is necessary to detect the i'm
portance of the subject matter.
Hirota's message, dated Feb. 81
declared emphatically that Japan
"has no intention whatever to pro-
woke and make trouble with any
other power" This was considered
direct allusion to the Russo
Japanese situation.

Invites in Marion county.
The sheriff in statement charged
that few "so-called party leaders"
met and picked a candidate of their
own after he had entered the race.
The sheriff'S statement follows:
"On my return to the city, some
few weeks ago, I was greeted with
several thousand demands from my
friends TO become a candidate in
the Democratic primary for mayor
of the city of Indianapolis. My
reply to those demands was a
formal announcement March 9, 1884.
Since that time, however, few

Kirk Mckinney, and certain others
under their control, held confer

ants, finds no favor with me-"
What political success has been
mine in the past has not been
founded upon my acceptance of such
a proposal from any group. AS a
citizen and Democrat, it has been
my observance that political party
success and public responsibility
soon fails when the inherent right,
both of the citizenry and of the
ranks of a political party to choose
its public officials is denied by the
selfish action of any group.
Proof of this truth is reflected in
the prompt reputation of the Re
publican party in local government,

made and hand picked

But here is picture proving
the contrary. 1t is Mr.. Greenlee
with loving cup. and he didn't
buy it himself, either. 1t was
given him at Vigo county
love feast of some TOO Democrats
Monday night. Donor of the cup
was the Vigo county Democratic
committee and the presentation
speech was made by Richard
little Dick Werneke, long time
Vigo county Democratic boss.
Dick has had troubles of his
own. including the premature
celebration not long ago of fed
eral appointment which was not
forthcoming. So he appreciates
the plight of Pleas. In his pres
entation speech he said:
Here is the man that has had
more heat than any member of
the Democratic party IN the en-
tire state. I was one of his pioneer
critics. Then ! went to the state
house and learned something
about the problems he has faced
and solved. / came away with the
conclusion that nobody could have
handled the job and not be on the
same spot. 1t is just impossible to
please everybody"
What the Job has meant was
explained by Mr.. Greenlee in the
cup acceptance speech. 1t meant
trying to please $4,000 job-seekirg

5000 state jobs, he said. He point
