BOYCOTT 1(1 CHINA HAS BEEN REMOVED

Flowery Kingdom May Become One of Best Customers of Uncle Sam. COMMISSION RETURNS And Believes It Has Done Much Good for Business Interests of Nation. (American News Service) Spokane, Wash., Dec. 22. "China's boycott on American made goods has been lifted as a result of the visit of the honorary commercial commissioners of the associated chambers of commerce of the Pacific coast." said C. Herbert Moore, former mayor of Spokane, on returning home from a stay of four months In the orient. "Their Is every reason to believe that China will become one of the best customers of the United States," he continued, "and from now on the volume of exports to that country may be expected to increase very rapidly and substantially. "In many places we found the Intelligent and progressive Chinese eager for a representative form of government. This desire Is spreading with rapidity, 'and there are many In the orient who believe that the advocates of this reform will be successful. The plan to establish a parliamentary body Is generally favored. U. 8. Her Best Friend. "We were Informed in many cltlos of the empire that the prominent Chinese regard the United States as their best friend because of this country's firm stand as to the Integrity of China and In favor of the open door policy. Another thing that has contributed largely to our relations with progressive awakening. China is the fact that the effective crusade against opium traffic originated and is being largely carried on by Americans. "The progressive signs of China's advancement toward modern improvement are In evidence on all sides. Railroad building Is being carried on In many directions, and up-to-date methods and equipment are employed in transportation. "One of the best signs Is the almost universal doslre on the part of the younger generations far education upon the American end Kurcpcan standards. We were told that many of the older families are preparing to nend their sons to institutes of learning In America, and if only half of the number promised come to this country the student bodjes of our unlverfltles will bo largely Increased during tbe next few years. "We found the commcrrlaf men and bankera of China fully alive to the benefits derived from trade with the t'nited States as a measure to encournge peaceful relation and promote progressive and prosperoua Intercourse. Progress in China Is exceedingly favorable. Politely Entertained. "Wo were entertained everywhere and on every hand with great consideration and politeness and were entcrtalned in many cities. We had audiences with the prince regent, and the governors and viceroys and commecial bodies were lavish In their entertainment. They made ua feel that they regard the United States as a good friend. "We found that many American made goods are adapted to the Chinese needs and thai they will use them In preference to the articles manufactured In Europe. China already Is Importing considerable flour and lumber from the Pacific and northwestern states, and arrangements are under way to provide apples and fruits grown In the Pacific country. We also were told there Is a growing demand for the necessities and luxuries manufactured In middle western and eastern cities and that this is bound to increase."

The Richmond Driving club has re-! organized and on or before January 1 a deal will be consummated between the club and Augustus Scott of this city for the one year's lease of his farm about two miles caet of the city which is better known as the o fair grounds. The construction of a mile track on which "green" horscB and colts mny be developed, nnd for sporting events is the plan of the organization, now numbering about sixty-five members, but which will be largely increased. Privilege will be given the club to extend the lease to three years if tbe club is satisfied with1 the success of the venture during 1911. Later it may develop Into an organization for the promotion of professional racing restoring this sport which years ago made Richmond one of the most noted sporting points in Indiana. Among the more active members are Charles 1 lodge, the president; Kverett Hawekotte, the secretary; J. H. Mr eke, the treasurer; Dr. J. H. Kinsey, Mayor W. W. Zimmerman, Horace Iredell, Will Rhodes and others. The Scott farm consists of about sixty acres. Twenty of these will be used for the mile track enclosure. The track will bo one of tbe most approved sort. Probably a few stables of a temporary nature will be erected for the first yenr. The old buildings at the fair grounds were torn down a few years ago, and also the high board fence. "Will you marry me' be aski bluntly. "No." replied the listen trnhlon.

The merchants of Richmond say they are being troubled more this sear than ever before by shop lifters, principally women. A few women have been caught "with the goods." but have alwa3 been of such prominence that the merchants fear to prosecute- them. Especial precautions have been taken this week by the store keepers but pr6bably no attempt will Le made lo prosecute the parties captured. However, the police prorv.lse that in case attention is brought to them of any such violations speedy justice will 2 j foKow, regardless cf C'.e social stand ing of the prisoner.

PHONE 2299. 22 2t WOOL GROWERS ARE TO RAPPRESIDENT His Message Holds Out But Little Hope to Them and They Are Wrathy. (Amcrtcan News Service) Portland, Ore, Dec. 22. That Taft's latest message will come in for a grilling at the hands of the wool growers of America at the annual convention scheduled for Portland, January 4, 3, fi, and 7, is the frank prediction of sheep raisers. This message holds out little hope to the wool growers and they regard it as settled that he regards the wool and woolens schedule as indefensible, for he has said so on a number of occasions. It Is felt that bc long as President Taft feels that a majority of the people want the schedule revised, whether the industry will be wrecked or not. he will stand by his original program for the reopening of the schedule and eonie changes in the duties on wool and woolens, although he has stated on numerous occasions, it is suid, that he Is not after the woo! 'growers, but rather the manufacturers. Fr?r Is General. Growers are naturally hoping that congress will not dig into the tariff on wool until the Tariff Board has had a chance to report. The fear is general, however, that revision cf Schedule K is inevitable and this is causing a depressed feeling among sheepmen everywhere. The tariff talk that will be heard will be a big feature of the coming convention. Strong speakers have been secured to discuss the situ ation and advise a way oat. Edward Moir, president of the Carded Woolens Manufacturers' Association, will speak on scneaule l, from the standpoint of the Carded Woolen Manufactur ers." "The Payne-Aldrich Tariff and Wool Imports," will he the topic presented by C. H. Frown, Washington represen-' tative of the National Wool Growers j Association. "Tariff on Wool and Woolens." is the subject to be presented by Theodore Justice, of Philadelpnia, and Fred H. Blume of Sheridan Wyoming, will speak on "Protection for Wool and Woolens." There will be extended discussions on wool and tariff matters at all the sessions of the convention. Other subjects to be discussed are: "Schedule K," by Peter G. Johnson, Blackfoot, Idaho. "What Sheepmen Can Accomplish by United Effort." by C. B. Stewart, Salt Lake City. Xmas packages called for and delivered. Western, Union Telegraph Co.

Undue secrecy attending the finding of the committee has tended to arouse resentment. Failure to make Senator Frazer'g statement a part of the record has led to criticism. The hostile tone of the press in many parts of the country and the evidence of an aroused public sentiment in the matter, all are having their effect. Today it developed that certain senators are going over the matter with a view to attacking the majority report, regardless of whether the minority report is filed. Senator Beveridge is expected to file a minority report and Senator Frazier may also do so. What is Christinas without Candy?

causded considerable amusement in the beard meeting by her quaint protests against the paving of North D street. "Why, your honor, it's not fair to make us property owners pay for the paving. There's only one horse on our square. Why, I haven't a dog to trot on the pavement. Half the property owners will have to mortgage their properties for the improvement and there is one who may lose his property." This improvement was suggested in

'the budget meeting some time ago and iwas not the, result of a popular peti tion. The street is In sucn a condi tion from heavy hauling that the ini ! nrovement was deemed necessary r.i i Urn ;vw it Is claimed that all the ttia efruil a To IllWlf find that the improvement would be a ' great hardship. !

Ho said for this reason the improvement should he made. A petition was introduced for the mprovement of South, Fifth stre?t. from Main to South E street with cement side walks. It was sent to the Engineer' office for specifications. A resolution for the improvement of North Fifth street from Main to North K street was introduced.
