01 MOTORCYCLE
.With a broken and patched up back
onil with Ills legs cut off Just below
the hips, a marvel of optimism and de
termination, who looks upon life cheer
fully and does the very best he can
despite his crippled condition, John A.
Sobastalu of San Franc-sco, In his
motorcycle trip from San Francisco to
New York, arrived In the city yester
day, being the first crlpolo to ever op
erate a motorcycle over the Siskiyou
mountains.
He Is paying his expenses enroute
by selling post cards with a picture
of himself mounted on the motor
cycle, and on which apears the cui
tlon: "Legless, but not down and out.
Just trying to muke good." A talk
with this very Intelligent, clean-cut
optimist of 40 years, who after being
apparently hopelessly Injured by a
railroad train In 1912, spent the next
'iH years In various hospitals through
out the country and was operated on
sit times, is an inspiration.
He left San Francisco two weeks
ago on his Harloy-Davldxon motor
cycle, which he manages with ease,
and expects to reach New York In
seven weeks, Just taking It easy along
the way. Despite his crippled condi
tion Sebastian is in such good health
and spirits that he looks at least ten
years younger than his ago. Ho has
ambition, too, as well as iron will
power and determination, and is much
of an athlete, easily leaping off and
onto the motorcycle.

liudlcs of eight white moil and fif
teen negroes lay In morgues. Home of
the 35 Injured remaining In hospitals
were not expected to recover. The
loss from firo In the negro quarter.
and the damage in adjacent territory
was estimated by real estate men at
about $1, GOO, 000. Besides the homes
of negroes, a negro church recently
erected at a cost of $8r,000 and seve
ral substantial brick business bulldv
lugs wero reduced to ruins. 'The
burnead nrea covered more than a
square mile.
Nearly 5.000 negroes camped tu the
fair grounds all night and citizens
and authorities today began conside
ration of their desperate need of hous
ing. Clearing up of the debris In ihc
negro quarter ami erection of tents at
once was one suggestion. A commit
tee of citizens and the lied Cross
provided funds for Immediate neces
sities. The absence of negroes from
their work, especially those employed
In hotels and other downtown estab
lishments much Inconvenience. There
wero no negro passengers on trnlns
arriving early today. However, of
ficials deelared in spite of lsoluted ru
mors of minor troubles, that the race
feeling apparently had died out.
Officials hoped to lenrn today Just
how the first shooting started. Ac
cording to a newspaper man, about
25 while men gathered Tuesday night
.'it the court house where Dick Row
land, a negro, was held charged with
uhmiuK on a white girl. Three of their
leaders were said to have entered and
to have been told by Sheriff McCul
lough that he proposed to protect the
negro. .Meantime, 25 or 30 negroes
gathered outside. Efforts of mem
bers of their own rnce to get them to
disperse appeared to be about suc
cessful several times, but other leaders
called them back. The whites and
negroes wero reinforced as the time
passed. Some one shouted "let's get
guns."
Armed negroes soon npponred in
motor cars racing past the court
house.
The white mob moved away. A
brush and numerous small skirmishes
occurred In an alley and then general
shooting began and the negroes were
driven toward their quarter of the
city.
Tuesday at Sixth and Boulder streets
when 200 armed negroes who had
been parading the streets and a great
crowd of whites, nearly all of whom
were unarmed, gathered about the
court house.
Finally a verbal altercation between
the factions began. Suddenly a shot
rang out and instanly firing became
general.
The negroes retreated slowly up
Boulder street, firing. When they
emerged In Fourth street hot sklr-
1 mishes ensued.
The negroes finally retreated to the
nefiro district.

CONFESSION OF MURDER
(Continued From rage One),
American Legion building was blown
up on February 2.
McCoy was picked up as a suspect
in that case. He was found possessed
of some nltro-glycerine and a kit of
burglary tools. Ho was returned to
the institution' February 11 und has
since been In solitary confinement.
Warden W. O. Potts Bald in making
the HJfidavil public Unit liio Ontralla
authorities would be advised of the
contents of McCoy's statement, and
would be asked to attempt to find the
body of West.
"If they should fail," he continued,
"a court order will be obtained and
McCoy will be asked to lead the
authorities to the shallow grave in the
gulch."
NOT DRIVEN TO GRAB LAND
(Continued from Pago one)
to be the goal of Japan's depraved In
tentions, only 27.877.
These figures knock the stuffing out
of tile Idea that Japan has entered
upon any colossal scheme to make the
world Japanese by colonizing it. The
1209 Japanese in all Mexico would not
seem to demand much of a battleship
to disperse; the 7 In Uruguay would
hardly seem to menace the Monroe
doctrine enough to keep us awake at
night; we may learn without a shud
der that there are 3 In one city on the
coast of Chili.
Must Have Raw Material
Well, then, whut Is the trouble and
why does Japan look so steadfastly
away from home and why does she
follow this aggressive policy toward
China and what Is the meaning of her
advances in Manchuria?
It Isn't that she wants territory on
which to plant people and so start Jap
anese colonies and expand the empire
but thut she wants raw material on
which she can keep them busy at
home.
Japan Is changing from an agricul
tural to a manufacturing and commer
cial nation. As she changes more and
more the greater becomes her need.-of.
raw .material the less becomes, her
need for room.
Her advantages In manufacturing
are a fair coal supply, much water
power, and a population with a low
standard of living, a low wage scale,
great industry and a gift of manual
dexterity. Furnish now the raw ma
terials and if these conditions con
tinue Japan will become one of the
foremost manufacturing and carrying
nations of the world.
On the soil that she has at present
there Is plenty of room to house a fac
tory population.
What she seeks therefore In China,
Manchuria, Siberia, is not room but
iron, wool, cotton, wheat, oil.
She needs for her woolen factories
100,000 bales of wool a year; she
raises fewer than 1000.
Her cotton manufacturing has
grown so fast that from 1917 to 1919
her Imports of raw cotton more than
doubled. She must have then always
Increasing supplies.
In the metal trades, her imports of
iron Ingots more than doubled in the
same time; of Iron bars, rods and the
like from $83,000,0 10 worth to $125,
000,000 worth.
Of nickel her imports Increased four
fold; of tin, lead and leather they
doubled.
Glance for a moment at the figures
of Japan's memorable advance in the
shipbuilding industry, less than five
years being shown here:
Number of yards, end of 1913, 0;
March 1918, 07.
Capital invested In these, end of
1913, $12,775,600; March 1918, $81,
525,000. Funded debt of these, end of 1913,
$1,800,000; March 1918, $11,025,000.
Number of cradles In them, end of
1913, 17; March 1918, 157.
i .timber of workers In ship yards,
end' of 1913, 26,139; March 1918, 97,355.
lit 1918 the Japanese ship yards
turned out 324 steel steamers of more
than 1000 tons each, or a tolul tonnage
of 1,107,338, and even after the great
slump la ship building following the
close of the war they were building at
the rate of about 500,000 tons a year.
Consider also the growth of the
Japanese mercantile marine. In 1893
It consisted of only 15,000 tons of
large vessels in international com
merce. It had grown to 709,000 tons
in 1896. 1,527,000 in 1905, and 2,482,000
in 1918.
Beating Out Competitors
With its cheap und skilled labor
Japan can build and operate ships
more cheaply than almost any other
nation. It has before it therefore by
legitimate competition a large part of
the carrying trade of the world. But
to build Its ships It must have iron. Its
own iron deposits are small, it turns'
therefore to the nearest country that
has Iron, which is China, and as China
has not hitherto developed Its re
sources Japan starts in, with no very
nice or delicate methods to make sure
ot the developing.
'Then the terrified world sees the'
basilisk eyes and awful claws ot the
monster, as It begins to absorb a na
tion of 400,000,000 inhabitants.
In 1914 there were 5206 manufactur
ing companies in Japan, having a paid
up capital of $426,784,000. Four years
later there were 8221 such companies
with a paid up capital of $848,850,000.
The number of factories has Increased
irom 17,062 to 23,391; the number of
employes from 863,964 to 1,409,196. '
The wise and the experienced will
not need to seek further than these
figures to find the true origin of thov
Japanese jobberwock. Startled com-
petllors and frightened jealousy can
see a monster In every Bhadow.
