SMOOTH SAILING
FOR JAP DEAL
SENATE RATIFIES NEW TREATY
WITH JAPAN—WESTERN
SENATORS SATISFIED.
FIGHT RECIPROCITY
OPPONENTS OF TREATY WITH
CANADA ATTEMPT TO PRE
VENT PASSAGE
Washington. The new Japanese
treaty of trade and navigation was
ratified after a two hours’ executive
session of the senate.
While the apprehension of Western
senators that the treaty might let
down the bars to coolie labor was not
entirely removed, these senators con
tented themselves with expressing
their solicitude. They interposed no
objection to ratification.
The action in promptly confirming
the new agreement is expected to do
more to prove the feeling of cordiality
that this country has for Japan than
anything done for many years.
The prompt ratification of the treaty
is regarded as a manifestation of
highest confidence in the advanced
civilization of that nation. The effect
will be to permit Japan to enter at
once upon a reorganization of its fis
cal system and the making of new tar
iffs with all nations.
Japan's treaties with other powers
are to expire July 17th. That with the
United States, by reason of its later
ratification, would have continued un
til the same date a year later had not
this government consented to its ex
piration at the same time as the oth
ers.
Failure to have ratified the new
treaty would have delayed the opera
tion of the Japanese programme for
a year beyond the time when it was
planned to put it into effect.
It would have meant much to the
revenues of Japan and continuance of
the existing treaty with the United
States for another year would not have
benefited this government, according
to the representations of the state de
partment on the subject.
When the new treaty w-as received
from the President it immediately be
came the subject of wrangles. Pa
cific coast senators feared it might
have an effect upon the labor situa
tion on the western slope by reason of
the omission of the clause in the
treaty of 1894, which it supersedes,
recognizing the right of this govern
ment to pass an exclusion law.
Friends of the treaty explained that
the diplomatic notes accompanying it
definitely pledged the Japanese gov*
ernmbent to prevent an influx of un
desirable coolies, through the rigid
scrutiny of all passports.
An alien without a passport would
of course be liable to deportation.
The California senators, it is said, be
came satisfied early that the change
would not menace the labor situation
in their state.
Washington.—Opponents of the Can
adian reciprocity agreement attempt
ed to put a quietus on legislation on
the subject when the McCall bill was
reported “without recommendation'’
from the Senate committee on fi
nance.
So far as the present session of
Congress is concerned they took j
long step toward accomplishing their
purpose.
As only a few days remain to put
the bill through a hostile body, the
speeches against it were accepted
generally as its death knell, until a
resurrection should come in an extra
session.
The return of the bill to the Senate
by Acting Chairman Burrows of the
finance committee was made the oc
easion for brief speeches both in op
position and in favor of early action
Fifteen Dead Taken from Mine.
Tonopah, Xev.— Four more bodies
In addition to the eleven removed,
making fifteen in all, were taken from
the Belmont mine through the new
shaft. The remains of the last four
are frightfully mutilated and it is be
lieved they cam * from the bottom of
the shaft, which is 1,196 feet deep.
Six Americans are among the dead,
the rest being principally Slavs. Ow
ing to the absence of data as to the
exact number of men who entered
the mine, it is impossible to say how
many remain, but they are believed to
be Slavs. Stat" Mine Inspector Ryan
Is conducting an investigation.

Charlton, American, who is charged
with murdering his w'ife In Italy last
.year, has reached the Supreme Court.
' Canada Opposes Reciprocity.
Winnipeg, Man. —“Injurious to the
farming industry” and a “danger to
British connections,” is the way the
Manitoba Legislature, by a vote of 2G
to 12, condemns the proposed reci
procity agreement between Canada
and the United States.

Wyoming’s Manufacturing.
Cheyenne.—Census Director Durand
has issued the census, bureau’s sum
mary of manufactures In Wyoming for
1909. He says, in part:
•While large percentages of increase
are shown, Wyoming is not a manufac
turing state. The Industrial activities
are centered chiefly upon mining and
stock raising. In 1909, of the total
value of products of manufactures, 64
per cent was confined to three indus
tries —railroad repair shops, $2,337,000;
lumber and timber products $751,000;
and flour and grist mill products,
$746,000. The combined value of
products for these three industries
showed an increase of 60 per cent,
which is less than that for the state as
a whole.
’’The summary for the state shows a
large increase at the census of 1909 as
compared with that for 1904. in the
order of their importance, from a per
centage standpoint, the principal items
ranks as follows:
“Capital, 117 per cent; cost of ma
terials used, 87 per cent; value of
products, 69 per cent; salaries and
wages, 60 per cent; value added by
manufacture, 58 per cent; number of
establishments, 57 per cent; average
number of wage-earners employed dur
ing the year, 53 per cent; number of
salaried officials and clerks, 44 per
cent, and miscellaneous expenses, 29
per cent.
“There were 266 manufacturing es
tablishments in 1909 and 169 in 1904, !
an increase of 97, or 57 per cent.”
Legislature’s Appropriations.
Cheyenne.— Among the larger appro
priations made by the legislature was
one of $95,000 for a large addition to
the penitentiary at Rawlins. The peni
tentiary has been overcrowded for
years. Another large appropriation
was $35,000 for establishment of an
institution for feeble-minded and epi
leptics at lender. The state fair, lo
cated at Douglas, will also receive
$20,000 for the ensuing two years. An
appropriation of SIOO,OOO was made
for establishing In some city a state
industrial Institution for care and in
struction of juvenile delinquents.
Land for Homesteaders.
Washington. Secretary Ballinger
has ordered opened to settlement tin
ker the provisions of the homestead
laws, April 18, 1911, and to entry one
month later, the unappropriated lands
in the 4,907 acres recently eliminated

One of these told a young lady, of
New Brunswick, N. J., to quit medi
cines and eat Grape-Nuts. She says:
“For about 12 months I suffered se
verely with gastritis. I was unable
to retain much of anything on my
stomach, and consequently was com
pelled to give up my occupation.
"I took quantities of medicine, end
had an Idea I was dieting, but I con
tinued to suffer, and soon lost 19
pounds In weight. I was depressed
In spirits and lost interest In every
thing generally. My mind was so af
fected that ft was Impossible to be
come Interested In even the lightest
reading matter.
"After suffering for months I de
cided to go to a stomach specialist
He put me on Grape-Nuts and mr
health began to Improve Immediately.
It was the keynote of a new life.
"I found that I had been eating too
much starchy food which I did not di
gest, and that the cereals which I bad
tried had been too heavy. I eoon
proved that It la not the quantity of
food that one eata, but the quality.
"In a few week* I was able to go
back to my old business of doing cler
ical work. I have continued to eat
Grape-Nuts for both the morning and
evening meal. I wake in the mornlnl
with a clear mind and feel rested. I
regained my lost weight in a short
time. I am well and happy again and
owe it to Grape-Nuts." Name given
