Washington, Nay. 23. Japan hopes
for a big place 'in the sun as a result
ef the world peace conference, accord
ing to diplomats today, .'
- The Mikado, it is believed, plans not
ily to seek retention of Kiau Chau
id other German island possesions in
the Pacific, now under tho Japanese
flag, but also expects world recognition
of special trado and economic privil
eges in China and Siberia.
Peace Principles of Japs.
According to diplomatic Information
here the Japanese delegates to 'the
' .peace conference will carry with them
seven basic peace clauses, as follows":
1. Unquestioned concurrence with
their lawful" all, Great Britain, in the
question of freedom, of the seas and
other universal matters affecting tho
.future of -the British-Japanese alliance.
Si. Sympathy with the United States
and the entente- ru the plun to protect
, the new .nations, arising out of the war
and to safeguard the world against fu
ture wars. '
j. Recognition of Japanese necessi-;
ty in preserving order in Siberia to
.protect the integrity jf her dominions
a id populations. ,
4. Recognition of a legitimate fin
ancial, commercial and industrial
r.pnere in China. .
5. Permanent occupation of Kiau
(Shan -under terms that may be satisfac
torily .arranged between Japan and
Ci'ina.
6. Japanese protectorates over the
Alarihall and Caroline Islands, and other-former
German possessions in-the
.'Pacific seized by Japan, when she en
teed tee war. . " '.'.'',.
7. Reciprocity rights for Japanese
ciliens 'throughout the world.
If v.r.s indicated, however, that the
( Uins are more or less general and that
t'-.o Japanese representatives will go to
yerauie move to keep with their as
'wxiKtes in the war than to seek reward
oi luvors. "
in Harmony with America.
Far Eastern diplomats emphasize the
-fact that Japan is fully in harmony
whh the United Stales and the entente
regarding the gei.ual world movement
to lend assistance to weaker nations
nd to build up the undeveloped sec
tions along new aad conservative lines.
The Xnpuncse are pointing to the re
cent strides toward fuller democracy
ia their own government and notably to
the elevation of the ovular leader Har
ab.'ili.im to the premiership as evidence

ural unit unhindered expansion in oth-

tf-ln.'C ,
Freedom of Dane Province. ,
Freedom of Sdileswig Holstein,
wrested from Denmark by Germany in
1866, will be one of the specific de
mands of President Wilson at the peace
table. . -
Auswering the call of native Danes,
both in Hchleswig and in the United
States, the president has assured these
leople that the wrong done them by
Germany in 1866 shall be righted. The
(rresident 'a position wag outlined in a
tetter made public today, replying to
l petition recently presented by Am
erican citizens from Schlegwig-Holsteia
tid others of Danish descent. The pe
tition said: -..-..
"Speak and speak soon, in order that
ttiose of our people who are less for
tunate than we may be granted the
N triple elementary rights of self deter
mination and of self government for
(tie preservation of which we and our
children are now working at home and
.fighting abroad," "
The president directed his reply to
Rev. K. C. Bodnolt, of Rajine, Wis.,
a -native of Schleswig and a leader in
Hie fight. of the Danish Americans.
"I can but assure'you that your ap
peal to America's synipthy and passion

London, Nov. 23. The Mst important
city in Belgium to be repatriated, Liege
is expected soon to be in asr:ed hands.
The British were laBt reported within
less than 20 miles of that place. They
have passed through Namur.
(Liege is 45 miles east and south of
Brussels and only eight miles from the
Prussian frontier. It is where the first
great battle of the- war was fought,

Occupation of Luxemburg is rapidly
being completed iy the Americans who
are nearmg Rhenish Prnssia. Tho
French already have a foothold in tho

junction of the boundaries of Rhonish
Prussia and Rhenish Bavaria.- '
The general line of allied advance;
according to latest advices is as fol

"Not America alone, but all the peo
ples now quickened to a newer sense
of the values of justice, must join in
the relief of a grievance whose contin
uation would traverse the principles for
which more than a score of nations are
fighting."
Position Already Determined.
The president Is position on Schles-wig-Holstcin
was determined upon by
him with this country's entrance into
the war. About a year ago the United
Press was authorized to state semi-of-ficially
that the president was commit
ted to four fundamental positions in
the west:
Return of Alsace-Lorraine.
Destruction of the kaiser's power.
The freedom of Schleswlg-Holstein.
Completing righting of the German
wrongs done Belgium and northern
France. "
There was considerable talk today
about the possibility of tho president
giving up his trip to Europe as a result
of Secretary McAdoo's resignation
from the treasury- and railroad admin
istration .and the general uncertainty
'of readjustment workvwithin the gov
ernment. The president's friends, how
ever, said he knew of McAdoo's inton
Itions long ago and that there would
I be no alterations in his plans.

delegation is expected immediately.

'g restraint during the present

Asserts That All His Informa
tion Comes. From Most
Unreliable Sources.
"I beg to differ with the chief ex
ecutive that his reason that I was ask
ed to resign was thai I was extrava
gant. The real reason is that I have
never been amenable to the control of
the parole officer, refueed to play tho
game his way, therefore he has de
manded my official scalp and gotten
it,"
Warden Charles A. Murpliy of the
state penitentiary, who has been re
qnestod to resign, thus gives the rea
sons why he was discharged ' by Gov
ernor Withycombe. When the governor
announced that he would disehargo
Murphy he stated the reason was that
Murphy had been extravagant In the
management of the prison. But Mur
phy says he knows better, tr.at the rea
son ho was ousted is because Joe Kel
ler parole officer, wields a strong in
fluence with the chief -executive.
When thegovernor talks about the
penitentiary, Warden Murphy says he
doesn't know what he is talking about.
"The governor can make no state
ments regarding this institution of .his
own perpcnal knowledge," savs Mur
phy, '"as he never comes within the
gates and gets all his information at
the hands of certain unscrupulous,
falsifying employes.
Warden Murphy's Statement
"Inasmuch as the Governor is mak

financial side of it, it will not be nec
essary for me to mention the. general

With tha Americans Advancing To

The First and Second divisions of the
American army are within a" few miles
of Prussian territory. If the advance
continues at the present pace they will,
set foot in Germany before this eve
ning. ' (-...
General Pershing has issued -the fol
lowing proclamation to the people of
Li-xemburg:
"After four years of violation, Lux
emburg hag been liberated. Your lib
erty was demanded ef the invaders by
the Americans and the allies as one of
the conditions of the. armistice.
"It becomes necessary now for the
Americans to pass through Luxemburg
and establish and maintain for a time
u line of supply. The Americans come
as friends and will conduct themselves
strictly according to international law.
Their presence will not be prolonged
any longer than is strictly necessary.
The functions of your government and
institutions will not be interfcrrcl with

faie will not be troubled and will be
respected. , ' -
"It ig necessary that the American
amy shall utilize certain utilities such
as :aiiways, telegraphs and telephones,
for which you will be reimbursed, ac
cording to just appraisement. It is pre

the institution. Ho has also given di
rect ordors to the employe vt. tha in
stitution. 'Sonne measure of weight is
given to his boastings by the fact that
his advice and counsel flvpz&r to be
accepted by the governor without in
vestigation as to the truth or veracity
o. his representations. j
Source of Executive Influence
"By reason of his boasttd control,
he wields a secret but powerful influ
ence of combine! fear , and hatred
among the inmates of the prison to
sueh an extient as to approach a dicta
torship over the term of tlmir service
of sentences. Jf a man did net bow tho
head and bend the knee to the parole
officer ho was doomed to serve until
hs did. - ' ,
"In support of this statement I neeil
but cite one instance which tomes with
in the personal knowledge of the gov
ernor oid nosds no veritica;ion. 1 re
fer to the case of Marshall lrwiuwho
was sentenced to serve one to seven
years for stealing a $3 shotgun. (I am
informed that District Attorney Ne-u-ner
of Douglas county, who prosecut
ed the case states' that the man should
never have gone to the penitentiary in
the first place.) He served One year
and was paroled. Because he left the
state without the parole officer's per
missionthus violating his parole he
was returned, has served 22 months and
ig still doing time.
"Tho violation of his parole, in this
instance is treated Sn the light of a
graver crime than that for which h
was committed. Attorney General
Brown and tho threfi district attorneys
associated with him in the parole scan
dal investigation will bear me cut in
this.
"I went to the governor and protest
ed in the above case and he told m
plainly that he refused to sign Irwin's
parole (after the parole board had rec
ommended it) for the reason that the
parole officer did not give his consent.
"The real reason was because of a
personal mattor,the parole officer slat
ing that Irwin had 'b'.owr. smoke in
his face.' Will say in this connection
that I investigated the matter and be
came convinced it was not true. How
ever the fact remaing thst Irwin is
still doing time by the parole officer's
orders. '
"A certain farmer whose name I can
furnish, -told an employe that it he
wanted a man to work on his farm all
he 'had to do was to 'sec Keller' as
'he was the man that run the p'aco. '
It is such instances as this that serve
to give eolor to Mr. Keller's boasted
claims and covert threats-to the pris
oners that they mu.-t answer to him as
he i the man who says when they
shall or shall not be . released. These
conditions have produced a situation
which has become intolerable to me,
and I had intended to voluntarily re
sign after the November election had
the parole officer not been removed,
as J could not conscientiously have
stayed at the institution with him on
the plaee. Tha reason I did rot resign
prior to, the election was tlie fact that
I did not wish to embarrass the caa
diilacy of the governor for re-election.

The Financial Side
" Referring .again, if I may, to tho
'financial sitlo of ' thig statement,' will
say that in public' interview the gov
ernor states, 'The .greatest leak if in
the commissary department. Convicts
have too much leeway tbore. They take
things out and scatter them among
themselves. There is a lack of discip
line over convicts in that department. 1
"I would like to inquire of tho gov
ernor how he knows that this is a
fact. I wish to state here and now
plainly that it ig untrue in every par
ticular. Hi? told me one time when he
maile a statement of this kind to me
that his source of information was Mr.
Keller, stating that an inmate, named
Pope had told him, Keller, that this
was the case. V
"I know of one instance where some
lemon extract was stolen out of a ware
room ia another part of the building
altogether from the commissary proper,
tho room being broken into and tho ex
tiact stolen and taken out in the yard,
several of the inmates becoming drunk
by drinking somo. It is an incident
that is to be expected around prisons
where there are plenty of men who
would steal if given an opportunity,
but it is altogether different than im
plio dby tho statement made by the
governor which indicates that it is a
common every day occurrence that
food stuffg are stolen and distributed
about the yard without any notice be
ing taken of it by .the management.
"The facts of the case nre that there
is practically nothing stolen from the
commissary and as everything going
out of the commissary is taken out by
requisitions signed by the warden it
would be very easy to detect any loss
if there was any great shortage in
any given commodity. The very oppo
site situation obtains, however, and ia
a recent audit and inventory taken
I y teeth JU Koliei ts, a public account
ant in Portland, he shows tnnt the
stock record carried as a perpetual in
ventory on this date calls for 2(i,23,
39, while his inventory completed shows
stock on band of $-'8,640.73, showing
that there, was a value of $406,36 over
and above what our issues called for;
moaning that wc were that much ahead, i
la other wordg nothing had bu stol
en and taken out unaccounted for.
Thig means, to put it in plain lan
guage, that the governor doesn't know
what he is talking about. He is taking
someone else 'a word over the duly con
stituted head of the institution. The
governor can make no statements re
garding this institution of liig own per
sonal knowledge as he never comes
within the gates and gets al' his infor
mation at the hands of certain un
scrupulous falsifying employes.
