It came as a | natural sequence of events. Korea was | not able to maintain her national status | as an independent nation. She allowed Russia to interfere with the affairs of | the kingdom. The Emperor of Korea | was not independent. Japan's position | was a natural and logical consequence. | Regarding the reports that China was | intending to largely increase its army, Takahira sald that China must be al- | lowed to uphold her own people. It was | not the intention of Japan to dictate anything to China. Regarding the immigration of Japan- | ese into this country, the wily diplomat | | had only to say that all these matters | were left entirely to his Government for He himself had no opinion whatever to express upon the subject. | The question was one that must be dis- | cussed between the two Governments. When his Government had brought it | up to an Issue, it was possible then that | he might have something to say, but at the moment he had no opinions to offer on_the subject. The Japanese Minister said that he had been in America for five years. His Government had offered him a vacation two and a half years ago, but affairs had { made it so he could not accept it then. | He was, however, now that the war was | over and peace restored, able to visit his native land. He is going home now os- | tensibly on a vacation. Whether he will return or not he does not know. He says he is very fond of America and | the Americans, but he was non-committal | as to whether he would prefer to go back to Washington or to remain In Japan. | He has aged considerably since he came | to this country. His mustache, which was jet black when he came here, 1s now thickly sprinkled with gray. In speaking Washington, Takahira | of the post at | said: “This post will be regarded as one of the highest in the whole diplomatic ser- | vice of Japan, and it will be the greatest amgbition of any Japanese diplomat to be t here as the representative of the | Emperor. If, therefore, it should be my fortune to be returned here again in that | capacity I will certalnly consider it a reat honor and pleasure. Whoever is appointed to this post will do all in his power not only to maintain but to pro- mote the important relations growing be- tween the United States and Japan.” Regarding the settlements of the war and {ts conditions, in which Takahira and Baron Komura represented Japan and | sel | Count de Witte and Embassador de Rosen Coat, $6.45 Also make provision for the girl.

LINE IS COMPLETED Route for California-North- eastern Railroad Selected by Engineers. PORTLAND, Deoc. 14.—At the head of & orevov of twelve surveyors, Engineer D. V. Griffiths of the Cealifornia Northeastern Rallroad Company arrived at Klamath Falls yesterday, having finished a definfte survey for a rallroad to run twenty-five miles southwest of town. In the vicinity ot Plcard the engineers met serious ob- stacles in “the hole in the ground,” where the valley is several lundred feet lower than the surrounding co "try. This prob- lem has been successfully 1.et and a grade secured from Weed of not over 1 per cent. The depot site will be chosen here to meet an agreement made with Weed people when the project was taken over. From present indications the line will come into town on the east side - Lower Klamath Lake. Later information is to the effect that the Weyerhauser people will not build into Klamath Falls. They will remodel the roadbed of the Klamath Lake Rallroad, cut out the switchback from Klamath River to Pokegama by a tunnel and handle lumber exclusively. The road is to be extended along the orig- inal route and swing off toward Pelican Bay without crossing the river and tap- ping the great timber belt. ————————— AMAGE BY STORM GREATER 2 THAN FIRST REPORTS INDICATE Many Houses on Pala Indian Reserva- tion Destroyed by Wind Last Sunday.
