This decision means that the (recent "restoration of the sinking fund to its former figure of $25,00,000 is to be for one year only and is contradictory to the principle by which the Terau chi ministry increased the fund from $15,000,000 to $25,000,000.

WHEAT LAND SNAP 2600 acres in Eastern Ore., 200 A. in cult'n., good bldgs., plenty of water; fenced and moralizatiom of the Tokio Stock Ex change has just given Japan a taste of what her condition will be after the war. Japan's new naval construction pro gram calls for an appropriation of $130,320,895. It is proposed to build three battleships of the super-dreadnought type, two battle-cruisers and 'several light cruisers, destroyers, aux iliary vessels and submarines in the seven fiscal years berrinninfir 1917-18. jfWith the conclusion of this program the Japan naval authorities will have realized their long-cherished ambition of establishing eight battleships and four battle-cruisers as the unit of the nation's fleet. The total appropriation of $130,- 320,895 will be apportioned as fol lows: 1917- 18 $ 7,164,004 1918- 19 11,590,919 1919- 20 20,869,713 1920- 21 25,655,348 1921- 22 27,570,224 1922- 23 12,466,429 1923- 24 12,497,153 Announcement of this program, coming on the heels of the bill which will double the fighting1 capacity of the American fleet has created great interest here. This interest has been considerably heightened by the con tention of a large section of the Japa nese press that the naval expansion of the United States is directed at Ja pan. 1 As for Japans determination to strengthen her sea power, even if her national debt must suffer, there are arguments aplenty both for those who 'would justify her move and others who inswt it is an aggressive action. Consider Japan's position in the world, say members of the latter class. She is lord of the Orient Al ready equipped with a mighty army and an efficient navy, she enjoys a po sition of unparalleled security. She is firmly united m alliance with Great 'Britain, the strongest sea power, and has joined in a close agreement with her near and powerful land neighlor, Russia. There are many factors in defenso of Japan's naval policy, the end of the war will see a readjustment of power all over the world. If the British and German navies come out of the strug gle approximately intact Japan will occupy a humble place in the naval hierarchy, made all the more humble by America's great expansion plans. I When the facta are kept in mind, say the peace promoters, no one need be alarmed at the sum voted for Ja pan's naval armaments. Market Place crossed fenced; handy to market Am going to offer this place fully equipped at a sacrifice on account of sickness. Must go at once. This is absolutely the best bargain I ever handled.
