Tbere ts goofl reason to believe
thattbere is a military clique in Japan wbich is dominating tue policy of
the Government just aaa their was one
ia Germany. Hence if the policy of
this clique can be brought tu light
and the government broopht to a
higher and better standing, it surely
will be a good thing for Japan and
'wiil save ber from trouble in the fu-
tare. Ar, 1 the is a countrv wet)
worth saving, as tiie people are most
progressive, hsve great talent for or
ganita_«>n, and ir only dominated by
unsellsh motive**, they wou'd ba the
very, best people in tbe world to help
in tbe awakening and development
et tbe "Awakening Uisnt, China."
It most uot be inferred from wbat
I bave written about J*pan tbat she
te wholly to blame for the state of af-
fsirs in China. It is bard to say jnst
wbat the root of tbe Tvbole trouble is,
bet to my mind it is a iong standing
eoe and we rind the same causes costive In other countries as well. In
common language of tbe day, one
ef tbe causes is Militarism. Tbere is
a military party in Jaf>an. as 1 bave
before stated ami tbere is one also in
Ohina and these two parties seem to
be in league with each otber, not for
any benefit of China but for tbe advance—lent of personal ambition and
tbe lining of the purses witb silver.
In China each of the provinces bad
a military ae well as a civil governor

So control tbe military governor The
question migbt be raised "Why does
China not rid herself of tbfse military?" Tbe truth ia that the better
part of the intelligent population
realises tbe evil and would like to do
away witb tbem, and resolutions
bare been introduced into Parliament
te (bat effect, but tbe military governors are too powerful and a law
enacted by Parliament has no effect
ea tbem as tbey can make or unmake
Parliaments merely by sending a few
sreepe towards tbe tbe Capital city
ae we saw done a couple of years ago
when Chang Heun came to Peking.
Tbe civil war wbicb bae been rag-
lag between the North and the South
for the laat two years is largely due
to the Military powers whicb are
strongest in tbe nortb and tbe civil

A Serious Accident.
From Nijrt" Arthur Correspondent.
Last Thursday afternoon littie Arnold, tbe 18 month old baby ot Mr.
and Mrs Charles Ott, was kicked in
the bead by a horse as be ran under
tbe horse's feet and was very seriously
hurt. Geo Williams drove them to Clare
and as tbere was no Hospital at Ciare
Dr. Clute* took them to Mt Pleasant
and had an operation on hia head
and Mr. and Mrs. Ott are staying in
Mt. Pleasant, and he is still very low.
Mrs. Ott's motber came from Detroit
Saturday to Mt. Pleasant and came
to Clare last Sunday to look after
chores on tbe farm. We all hope for
bis recovery.
Notice Of Board Of Review.
Notice is hereby given tbat the
Board of Review for tbe city of Clare
will convene at the City Hail on Mon.
Ma: 19 '19, at 9 o'clock A. M. and
will continue in session tour days between the hours of nine o'clock in the
forenoon and four o'clock in the
8 i afternoon of each day, provided a re-
least one ot tbe Ann
Sheriff Ecblin of Osceo
ed be would investigate the matter.
A certain colored chap by the name,
of Dave Henderson, porter on the;
dining car, bas been carrying the
fire-water from Toledo and disposing j
of it al! along tbe line to tbe lake.
Tbe sheiiff got wise. He boarded the
Ann Arbor at Clare and going to the
dining car lie succeded in purchasing
a drink of whisky from Henderson.
He then disclosed bis official badge
and asked the negro to be decent
about it and get ready to leave tbe
train at Marion. Wbiie changing bin
twaiter's garb be tried to make bia
escape, but tbe sheriff knocked a
glass door to splinters and handcuffed
tbe wiry black man.
Not the best kiod of t>upport was
given Echlin by train crew. They
seemed to resent the arrest of Henderson. The request to bold tbe train
ai Marion while tbe sheriff got off
with tbe prisoner and the several
cases of liquor was ignored and it
wi> necessary to remain on until
Cadillac was reached. Not, only tbat,
but tbe conductor bad been asked to
send a telegram to Cadillac to bave
police protection, but tbe
arrived after tbe train, so tbe sheriff
bad the trouble all alone. But be
stuck to the ship and landed at Htsr-
sey without injury.
Henderson waived examination be
fore Justice Fleiscbbauer Monday
morning. Bail was tired at S'OO and
it is though*, tbe prisoner's friends
will come to bis rescue. If aotht: will
have ro await his trial before tho
September term of court.

tbat Japan bas lent both moral and
physical aid to both aides. Loan*
and war materials have been furnished to botb nortb aud soutb and iu re-
tern Japan bas taken for security or
la lieu of payment, many of tbe valuable enterprises In China. Among
tbese are some of tbe beat mines, the
railways, tbe forests, and many other
age of whicb I may write more at
length at some later day. Tbe trouble
ia tbat Japan wbicb poses as a friend
ly neighbor, is not being truly friendly to ner neighbor, but is really glad
for the continuance of anything
which makes for tbe disruption of
Cblna, so tbat Japan may bave an excuse for sending in troops "To restore order to keep tbe peace" as we
often see ber statement. Tba falsity
of tbis is apparent when we know
tbat sbe bas been aiding both sides
jnst to keep up tbe suicidal struggle.
I am glad that now both northern
southern factions have united in
tending one delegation to the Peace
Conference and tbere China as a nation is being ably represented and
not simply tbs Nortb or tbe Sonth.
Continued next week.

The teachers of Gladwin county
met Saturday and discussed wages
for next year. Believing tbat by a
salary increase the standards of
scbool efficiency will be raised and
tbe teachers enabled to meet tbe
greatly increased cost of dsily living
tbey adopted the following wsge
schedule: For tbose holding a third
j grade certificate, »75 a month; for a
holder of a third grade certificate
witb experience *77 a montb: for
holders of a second grade, a connty
normal, or sn elementary rural certificate, $80 a montb; these same certificates witb experience and a graded
certificate will receive $£3 a montb;
holders of grst grade certificates, S90
a month; and a life certificate $100 a
montb.
I'be commissioner and examining
board endorse this schedule, believing it to be a fair and just increase.
Tbere will not be   enough   teachers
to supply tbe Glodwln county schools
next yesr.    After tbe past   year's experience tbe commissioner bas decid-
to grant no  permits ,for   the  coming
year, but sbe wiil  endeavor   to  place
all available teachers to tbe best possible advantage.    Whenever  possible
it will be  wise   to  combine schools, *

For some years the Wilson-Davy

However, tbey could not be expected
to be good always. Tbe il.ie stock of
goods carried by tbis firm is of course
more or less tempting as events

Tuesday morning it was reported
about towu tbat tbe expected bad
happened. When Mr. Wilson and
Groye Pierce entered tbe store in tbe
early tn- ruing evidently something
entirely out of the ordinary bad taken place. Tbe rear of tbe store presented evidence of more or less confusion. Tbere was no way to account
for It save on tbe burglar theory. To
