"The members of the lower house at

EOMURA HAS PEACE MESSAGE
Japanese Foreign Minister Outlines
JfatJort'B Policy.
TOKIO. Feb. 2. Speaking before the
lower House of the Diet today. Foreign
Minister Komura outlined the foreign pol
icies of Japan in a carefully worded
speech delivered before a full and atten
tive House. The opening sentence gave
the keynote of the entire speech, when
Count Komura said: .
'"The foreign policy of Oils empire
should have as an objoct the maintenance
of peace and the development of national
resources."
The Foreign Minister dwelt upon the re
lations between Japan and America at
length. He said:
"The friendehlp'of Japan and the Unit
ed States is traditional and it is absolutely
essential that both maintain unimpaired
those sentiments of amity and extend and
strengthen them by every means. Not
withstanding the perfect accord which
has always existed regarding the alms of
the two countries in the Far East and in
the Pacific, it appears that doubts have
been entertained in some quarters con
cerning the sincerity of the intentions.
Relies on Sense of Justice.
"In order to remove this misunderstand
ing, the two governments have deemed it
advisable to exchange diplomatic notes,
officially announcing a common policy,
which I am convinced will be largely in
strumental In preserving the repose of the
Orint.
"With regard to the question of legisla
tion unfavorable to the Japanese now
pending in California, the Imperial gov
ernment is relyimr on the sense of justice
of the American people, together with the
friendly disposition of the Federal Gov
ernment and Is confident that the ques
tion will not lead to International compli
cations." "Japan," the Minister went on. "there
fore, being on cordial terms with all the
powers. Including those who have not
been mentioned, it must be admitted that
the maintenance of peace, which Is the
one principal object of our foreign policy,
in now practically assured, and we are
enabled to devote our endeavors, to the
development of our national resources.
The first point claiming our attention is
the problem of emigration.
"In view of the new international con
ditions assigned to Japan it has become
necessary that our people. Instead of
scattering In foreign lands, shall concen
trate in the Far Bast, thus securing a
united effort looking to legitimate activi
ties and avoiding everything likely to ob
struct the development of international
commerce and Industry.
"These considerations have led the gxr
ernment to follow an avowed policy with
respect to emigrants to Canada and the
Vnited States, enforcing In perfect good
laith the restrictions placed on emigra
tion." Count Komura concluded his speech by
announcing that the imperial govern
ment had decided to notify the various
powers next year of the termination of
existing commercial treaties, to be ef
fective ona year after such notice was
ptven. He said that it was the Intention
of the governmi-nt to negotiate new
treaties "unhampered by any unequal
encasements."
The new compacts, he said, will be
based entirely on the principle of reci
procity, with a view to the free develop
ment of International commerce.
With reference to Great Britain he
aid that events of far-reaching impor
tance in the relations of the two coun
tries with other powers happily and
uniformly contributed to the consolida
tion of the general peace of Eastern
Asia, which was one of the principal
objects of the agreement. The alliance,
he continued, had steadily gained
strength and solidity and today stands
on an enduring foundation.
The relations of Japan with Russia,
he went on. were constantly improving;
1n Intimacy and both nations were
scrupulously observing the spirit and
letter of the compact governing their
attitude In the Pacific, while the poli
cies of both governments were yielding
momentous results.
Thus, in his opinion, there was every
Indication to expect an increasing
growth of friendly sentiments between
them.
Concerning China, Count Komura
said:
"It Is evident that in view of our im
portant and closer relations the two
nations should draw ties of sincere
friendship and mutual consideration. It
Is eratifying to note that some long
pending questions have been satisfac
torily adjusted recently and the solu
tion of other problems is not altogether
Impossible if they are treated in a
spirit of conciliation and accommoda
tion. Japan is watching, naturally,
with keen Interest and sympathy the
program of raf arm la China, An4-it Is
our earnest hope that the statesmen
of China will preserve domestic order
and tranquility. We have invariably
made it a jruldins; rule to observe the
open-door principle with equal oppor
tunity to China, and we are firmly de
termined to adhere to that principle
with unswerving: loyalty."
Bitter Attack by Opposition.
The Foreign Minister's speech was re-i
ceived with applause by the . government
side of the House, but Count Hattorl. an
opposition member, immediately began a
bitter sensational attack on the foreign
policy of the government. He said that
Japan had no determined foreign policies
and that this was shown by her present
attitude toward America, where Japanese
were denied an equal opportunity and
were even abused by Americans. The re
cent events, he said, had proved that the
anti-Japanese sentiment in America had
not subsided. The speaker attacked par
ticularly the recently concluded agreement
between Japan and America, saying he
believed the Japanese Foreign Office was
forced by the American Government to
sign the agreement in order to prevent
competition by the Japanese on the Pa
cific Coast. He declared that Japan's dig
nity had been injured thereby and he pas
sionately urged the government to enforce
the principle ot equal opportunity
alone would solve the question of the
rights of Japan in foreign countries,
u. .oiii tnt .vpn th President of one
country had denied Japanese the right to
travel, a right wmcn was xneira uy uij
Count Hattori's speech was greeted by
continued cheering by the opposition.
Foreipn Minister Komura replied with a
few words, saying that he had outlined
v. n ti Trtitr- nf his c-overnment and
that he had nothing to add and nothing to
retract.

It had been so amended that all reference

The attack on the President was

Readily Give Information and -the
Fnblio Demands, It.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Feb. 2. Commis
sioner Herbert Knox Smith, of the
Bureau of Corporations, today submitted
to Secretary Straus, of the Department
of Commerce and Labor, the annual re
port of the operations of his bureau for
the year ended June 30, 1908. In all re
spects, it Is the most important report
yet submitted by the Bureau of Cor
porations. The work of the Bureau dur
ing the last fiscal year was more varied
than during: any similar period since
the establishment of the Department of
Commerce and Labor. During the year
Commissioner Smith directed investiga
tions of many important industries and
he now has on hand as current work,
inquiries into the tobacco industry, steel
industry. International Harvester Com
pany, lumber industry, cotton exchanges,
and water transportation.
The most important legal work of the
Bureau In the last fiscal year was In
connection with a bill for the amend
ment of the Sherman law. A large
amount of work also was done in aid
ing the Department of Justice in the
preparation for trial of cases against the
Standard Oil Company for alleged prac
tice of discriminations in railway rates.
Must Hegnlate, Not Prohibit.
Discussing the general subject of cor
porate regulation and control. Commis
sioner Smith says:
There is an Irresistible movement toward
concentration in business. We must recog
nize the fact that Industrial concentra
tion is already largely accomplished, in
spite of general statutory prohibition. The
aim of new legislation should be to reg
ulate, rather than to prohibit, combination.
It Is an obvious absurdity to attempt to
do both at the same time, and prohibition
has practically failed. Our present law.
forbidding all combinations, therefore, needs
adaptation to the actual facta If we are
to do anything effective with the corpora
tion question, we must make an advance
on our present legislation. The practical
object is to see that business opportunity
and the highways of commerce are kept
equally open to all; to prevent fraud, spe
cial privilege and unfair competition. To
do this, we must recognize concentration,
supervise It. and regulate It.
Above all. we must have a system ot
efficient publicity. This is the strongest
rreans for our purpose. "EfDcient pub
licity" means that sort of publicity which
reaches the average citizen under every
day conditions. A permanent ofnee. after
collecting material, must also summarize It
for the public. In brief, clear and reliable
conclusion, showing Important permanent
corporate tendencies.
Bnt Way to Regulate.
The control by the Federal Government
(of corporations!, should be broadened Into
a general constructive system based on
tested principles ot supervision, publicity
and co-operation. The details of such a
system In its main features should be as
follows: . ,
It should be operated by the Federal
Government.
It should provide for a system of reg
ular reports from the large interstate cor
porations. Such Government office should have ac
cess at all reasonable times to the records
and accounts of such corporations.
That office should publish concisely the
Important facts disclosed. It should safe
guard from publication all business secrets.
Corporations complying with these re
quirements should be given the advantage
of a definite Federal registration.
The system should, if possible, be vol
untary. Flrally. supervision must be administra
tive. No other method has the necessary
flexibility.
We must have a system or supervision
which provides a working basis for con
ference and co-operation, and which does
not rely merely on criminal procedure and
opposition.
Trusts Ready to Help.
The time Is ready for such an advance
In our corporation policy. There has been,
mainly from the work of the present Ad
ministration, a remarkable advance in the
attitude of the financial leaders of the
country. Many of them frankly recognize
that their great commercial powers are
largely affected with a public trust. They
give substantial aid to the Government In
correcting corporate evils. The Bureau re
ceives frequently their requests Inviting its
criticism on their business methods. Very
few concerns have refused information to the
Bureau In Its Investigations. Most of those
called upon have thrown their records open
to complete Inspection. Some of them have
gone to considerable expenso In disclosing
all possible sources of information. Many
corporate managers have found that such
co-operation makes for Increased publio
confidence In these companies and their
securities. They feel that the giving of
reasonable Information as to their opera
tions Is well repaid by the Improved stand
ing thus gained for their companies as
concerns with open accounting and equitable
methods.
There Is not only a change In the atti
tude of business leaders. There Is also an
aroused and Intelligent demand from the
pjbllc for fair business methods and for
equal commercial opportunity for all. The
future of the Nation must depend largely
upon the stability of Its business machinery.
That machinery cartnot be permanent or
successful unless it operates openly and
Justly. It must place and keep in control
of our great commercial forces men who
have risen there solely by superior indus
trial efficiency. It must protect such men
from the competition of those who got
power by unftilr and Illegal methods and
privileges practices that rely pecu4iarly on
secrecy. To do this the Government must
have such supervision and control of that
corporate machinery as will maintain In
business the fundamental American ideal of
equal opportunity to all.

SEOUL., Feb. 3. The Emperor, Prince
Ito, the Japanese resident-general in
Corea, and the Emperor's suite returned
today from their extended tour of the
northern portions of the empire. The
tour is declared to have been a success
In every way, and not to have been
marred by any serious accidents or In
cidents. Positive assurances are given
that the attitude of the Coreans, as
shown during the trip, did not show
any pronounced anti-Japanese senti
ment entertained by the people at large.
Prince Ito made frequent speeches
during the tour, and on more than one
occasion boldly told his hearers that
there was no chance that Japan would
surrender its control of Corea.
The Emperor's tour has been tremen
dously effective In securing to him the
loyalty of his people. Heretofore they
have looked upon their ruler more as
a divinity than a human being. Since
his personal appearance among them
this attitude is steadily changing, and
thousands of Coreans are cutting off
their topknots, following the example

Enjoy Your Meals
By Simply Eating A Little Pleasant
- Tablet After Each of Them.
A TABLET DIGESTS A MEAL.
When digestion is perfect the fluids
necessary to this process come natural
ly to the aid of the stomach. They
are of right proportion and do their
work speedily and well. When indiges
tion and dyspepsia are prevalent, these
same Juices come slowly If at all, are
weak and Insufficient or are filled
with strong acids and alkalies.
When such a condition exists each
meal is a hardship upon the digestive
organs. The meal should strengthen
the juices, but on the contrary it
weakens them, so that man by the very
act of ea.lng causes conditions to arise
which -of themselves bring him pain
and loathing for the next meal.
By eating one of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets you mix the tablet with your
saliva and it goes into your stomach a
strong, vigorous fluid, many times more
powerful than the natural digestive
juices. These tablets are made up from
natural vegetable and fruit essences
atid are composed from Hydrastis,
Golden Seal. Lactose, Nux, Ascetic Pep
sin, Bismuth and Jamaica Ginger.
There is the formula and one grain of
it will digest 3000 grains of food in
any stomach. Beside digesting the
food it will give the blood the power
to enrich the digestive fluids so after
a time nature will take care of Itself.
Though you have no stomach trouble
one of theso tablets after each meal is
a powerful assistance to nature and is
an excellent habit to make.
Go to any druggist and ask his
opinion of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.

ESTABLISHING NEW

Read It Over Over $12,000 Worth of Pianos Sold in Two
Days Selection Still Quite Complete.
Come Today.
The clearance sale of used, highest
grade pianos, announced by Eilers
Piano House, is attracting attention
from far and wide. Nothing can more
definitely illustrate the prosperous con
ditions of the community than the re
cord of piano selling that is being es
tablished by this house at the present
time. During the first two days of
the sale no less than $12,117 worth of
piano3 and organs were sold, of which
$1371.50 was paid in spot cash.
This is a record scarcely ever equaled
heretofore and as the news of the sale
Is only Just beginning to become
known, it is safe to say that during the
remaining days of this week the sales
will be even greater than Monday and
Tuesday. The assortment offfered is
the greatest ever displayed upon any
similar occasion, and, as the firm has
under way some plans for extensively
emphasizing the fact that it has now
been established ten years, particular
efforts to have all of the instruments
included in this sale out of the way
at the earliest possible moment are
being made. .
To this effect prices have been re
duced way below anything ever of
fered heretofore on instruments of
similar quality and terms of payment,
for those who are not ready to pay all
cash, are being arranged upon almost
any basis that may be wanted by the
buyer. ; ,
Three years time is given to com

GINGER CP TOUR LIVER
You've heard of the Boss of the Blgf
Store gingering up his salesmen, the
factory foreman putting ginger Into his
workmen, you have even heard of the
Lady of the Hou.se gingering the cook.
Now, this gingering is for the purpose
of better results. It is generally ap
plied upon the appearance of the first
symptoms of deterioration in service.
Gingering the liver is to keep that
mportiint part of the human machine
from getting clogged and impairing
the health. When the liver gets
clogged and doesn't work right, the
proprietor of that liver suffers. Bil
iousness, sour stomach, indigestion.
Jaundice, coated tongue, bowel troubles,
constipation, sick headache, are some
of the things from which a disordered
liver makes Its owner suffer. Ginger
ing the liver prevents these troubles,
removes them wnen they catch one un
aware. Lane's Pills will ginger up the
liver. -They never pain, never gripe,
never leave any baa effects, are safe
for delicate women and children, and
one is a dose. Compounded by Chas.
