An elaborate entertainment was anticipated, but It was feared there ? would be that dreaded Indefinable 3 something which would keep a- chip i balanced o the shoulder of everyone i participating. Cheers were expected to be heard, - but -they were expected to be tittered under Imperial edict, and to ' carry about as much friendly sentiment , as the croaktnr of a flock of rven, . t The nien who- were to be given lib- WHISKEY FOR CONSUMPTION . . The increased use of whiskey for eon ' sumption is causing considerable dls f eusslon among the medical fraternity. 'It is an almost infallible cure when t mixed with pertain other ingredient and taken properly. ; The following j formula Is .declared T medical eutharl. i ties to be unequaled: ' Mix half pint of good whiskey with i two ounce of glycerine and add one half ounce Concentrated pine compound. ' The bottle Is to be well shaken each time and used Jn j doses of a teaspoon- .Xul to a tableapoonful every four hours. Any good druggist can supply these ; Increments and will make the mixture or it can lie mixed at home.

Ashore, Japan was likewise busily engaged -in building, trouble-barriers. The governor of Kanagawa prefecture, in which Tokohama is situated, issued a "do"- and a "don't" edict which was a masterpiece of detail. A few Of 'the "don'ts" forbade the starting of dog fights la the streets, ex- J ectora ting at any time, and the tak ng of sly peeps at- an American while bathing. . -Strict injunctions were issued against overcharging,-and the populace was en joined . from staring at any of Uncle gam's fighting beauties.

At 10 o'clock. when the liberty ex pired, the first llbertv oarty was crowded on the picturesque landing stage, loaded with sake, bird eggs, raw flan and banxal. And the flrt liberty party was dec orated with those dainty little hair ornaments .which Mies Yum-Yum af fects, while several-of the first liberty party, as evidence of particular enter prise were gowned in kimonos. -Pattering along the streets of Yokohama, little doll-like Japanese maidens were poising on their oriental coiffures, with some difficulty the flat bonnets of Unole Cam's sailor men and the situa tion was relieved. ' 'rh n nv , Ma tr ti. '4tt .mlllmf. far. of Japan was seen, when the free sake commenced to flow, the situation was cured. Liberties were extended and every sailor waa taken In tow by a Japanese and shown the time of his life. Geisha girls danced all nisrht and chirped lnt the willing ear of Mr. Jack, pretty, phrases in pigeon English. The royal silver cap was served with nis royai tail sun wiggling ana Jacx being game, ate him, wiggles and all. The very frankness "of the reception dissipated all suspicion. Never In the history -of Japan has there been such plain taitf on political matters, in prv ly discussed the differences between the two nations with the Japanese officials artd' the Japanese press dismissed the strained relation existing, without re serve. In Its editorial columns. -Old oioma's Keynote, keynote when be said In a little more polished phrase, "Murele the diplomats and let the people do the talking. ..There ha been too tnueh diplomacy and too utile sincerity. - The Brest narllamentarr leader. Hasebo, in an Interview advocated the calling of a convention to openly dis cuss the eastern problem. That Japan could not withstand tha drain of an other war for rears was the statement or several or the leading officials, and American residents related- hew hard hit Japan was by the Russian war. It la the concensus of onlnion between the higher naval' officers that- Janan doe not anticipate any aggressions in the east at this time, and now Is the time for America- to make her position In the east secure; not through any ag gressions but through the sane devel opment of an Impregnable base In the Philippines and the maintaining of a strong naval force on the Pacific The idea of a convention to define the rones of Influence of power inter- estea in tne rar east is meetlnir with general Indorsement from both the Jap anese and American officers, -ffhe greatest good whicn will - com rrom tne visit or the fleet Is the better understanding which will now prevail oeiween me -two. nations, wnicn is ex pected to prevent anv unfortunate in cident which might plunge them Into war. i- That during the Ban Francisco school troubles the two nation were close to war Is frankly admitted, but both the Japanese and the American naval men rrankiy state that a convention and a perfect understanding as a result of the convention are the only certain, guar antees of permanent peace.. . . Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, Maine and Missouri, in the order named, are the greatest producers Of lime. HAWLEY'S POSITION ON STATEMENT NO. 1 ASKED Maple Lane Grange Writes Congressman Demanding to Know Whether He Is or Is Not in Favor of Al lowing Legislators to Violate Pledge. Congressman W.

"An effort is being made by the Daily Oregonian to cause seven or more of these' members to break their pledge to the people -of this state. "The Evening Telegram of October !9 say that many of the Republican party leaders are advocating or approving this movement. If you had signed State ment No. 1, and been elected to the leg islative assembly, would you break your promise because the people did not choose your, party candidate T "Do you countenance, advise, or ap prove of the effort being made to in duce any of these members to violate their Statement No. 1 agreement? "This goes to the very foundation of public morals. We believe men who are publio servants should 1 be as faithful, honorable and truthful in keeping their promises to the people as tbey are in private life. "Knowing your history as an honor able man and teacher of the youth of our- state, we expect an Immediate, di rect and unequivocal answer to our ques tions which will demonstrate to the peo ple of the state that you have not lost any of the high standard of honor you taught your pupil during all the years when you were a teacher.
