He said that tha commercial requirement of the inland would never, aa he believed, call for the presence there of more than twenty thdbannd Americans, in ad oitlun to the soldiers who may be la eervire in the Philippines." That means that the return for our meddling in tha affaire of Ibia oriental region miwt be iuaignlflcantly small.

The American cltiiaa of tha genuine brand, seeking to improve himself, doesn't have to go to the Philippines and doesnt want to go.

Skint Faasett's article on Korea as tbo 1rize of War" is being widely quoted, but a number of errors in II are evident He says: Under and by virtue of the pruvia ious of a treaty negotiated by Admiral Svhufoldt on May 22, 1982, tbo United States and Korea agreed with each other that. If at any time, either of them were put upua by a foreign ha tluu, and her Integrity aud her soil threatened, the other would come to bur assistance aud us her best endeavors to ward off Injury from her ally. Under this treaty, wa have bad with Korea all these years The treaty still stands. Korea has not as yet. In view of either Russian ag- gression or Japanese aggression, or in view of Chinese aggression previous to 1894, seen fit to appeal to this government to carry out this agreement contained in that treaty. If she should do so now, it would raise a serious question as to just what the duty of the L'ultod Stale would be in tbe premises. The misquoting in the above la pointed out by the Sacramento Ben Tbe version given by Mr. Fassett la ridiculous on its face. Tbe absurdity of the United States seeking a defensive and offensive alliance with Kuroa. As the Beeuya, Mr. Fassett Is guilty of gropa carolsasoeea In the language he usea aa to tha effect lit the treaty. There Is nothing whatever In it pledging either country to use her best endeavors to ward off Injury from her ally,", or to come to her assistance in case of foreign aggression. Nor la there anything In tha treaty of a nature to raise ,fk "surloui question" as to what the duty of the United States may be lu case of war between Japan and Russia involving the Integrity of Korea. The only agreement In this convention with relation fu foreign aggression upon either party Is set forth in these words: if other powers deal unjustly or oppressively with either government, tbe latter will exert thoir good offices, on being Informed of the rase, to briag about an amicable arraugumont, thus showing their friendly feelings. There Is certainly nothing in this (bat anumnta to a pledge of protec-tkor a promise to do anything to ward off injury."' .The lang-idgof the treaty, tn fact, la practically meaningless In this regard, safe aa. an ex' pression of friendliness. Were tbe treaty sorb as Mr. Fasr sett. has represented it to lie, the United Stales could scarcely escape becoming Involved In the pending difficulty between Jatmn and Russia, which is almost certain to result in tbe destruction erf tho Integrity nf Korea, control of tbe territory of tbat kingdom being one of the vital points at issue between the two powers now at outs.. e pro-Japan- Lyceum Theatre hi 1 te .

The Utah Orchard company, successor to the Adams Canning company has just put in vogue n novei scheme for fattening stock, which-- so far hat been kept from the public. It appears that the canning company bas been storing the peavlnea from tbe farms from which they derive peas In alios with alfalfa, with a view to determining whether or not the ensilage produced therefrom would be productive of good results In tbe matTbe ensilage mater nf stock-raisintured about ten aya ago and the company began to feed a band of sheep upon the product. Ths results have been more than satisfactory. The animals have waxed fat upon the enany will In the silage and the at future maintain a band of the factory upon the ensilage of tbe peavines. Thla la prnbab1 tbe first case of the kind In the history of the country, and ia one of tbe moat profitinvestments imaginable. The able peas re gathered vines and all and delivered to the factory for canning purposes. Of course, nothing la used in the canning except the peas, and the conversion of the vine and pods into ensilage is simply clear profit to the company. F. J.
