Thought
alignment, whlrh >?V h fen Tn
proc?M or formation qnletly for M?
oral years, will probably be felt in
the relation# between Great Brftaln
and Japan. One stateafoan to-day de
clared that the St. Petersburg treaty
struck a blow at thV Brltlah-Japa
nese alliance which would probably
prove1 fatal.
The growing unpopularity of the
alliance, not only among Englishmen
in the Far Eaat, but at home as well
can but be Increased by the agree
ment between Tokio And St. Peters
burg. which is regarded as nothing
short of a compact for complete dom
ination of the tremendous markets of
China and Manchuria.
The long expected" formal annexa
tion of Korea by Jaj^au is now re
garded ai a matter of a short time.
The belief here is thai tHb condi
tions which have been, investigating
since the peace of Portsmouth will
soon become known, startling Europe
Japan's aim to recoup the Tosses ofc.
the war with Russia, which still lay
heavy on her people, would not be
far from realization were she in a po
sition, by a strong alliance with a
power with the same aim, to throw
to the winds her regard for the in
terference of the nations that stand
by the open door policy ? to wfilch
she subscribed.
The negotiations between 8t. Pe
tersburg and Toklo. Which are under
stood to have been rea^y for comple
tion when Prince Ito went to Harbin
and was killed by a Korean, are of
especial significance Ip view of the
f%ct that Japan is about to renew her
treaties with t&e Ifadlng powers.
London Is WatcliUig, the situation
cautfoualy, particularly with refer
enOe to tho negotiations for an Immi
gration treaty between the United
States and Japan. Tikis subject Is of
extreme Importance to Gr^t Britain,
because of the opposition to Japanese
Jmmlgfatlon In British" Columbia and
Australia.

A MISTAKE
Charge of Murder Is Laid to the
Wro?| Mao.
Elizabeth City. N. C.. July 7.? A
remarkable cane of mistaken Identity
was discovered here this morning
when a negro named Qibbs was tried
In justice court In a preliminary trial
upon the charge of murdering his
Wife In this city about Ave years ago.
Qibbs Jrom the city as soon as
the murder was committed.
Several days ago the police were
notified that Qibbs had been arrest
ed in Newbern and was being held
Oy the Newbern authorities tor the
Elisabeth City officials. Chief Thoa
as went? after the negro and brought
hln) here and lodged him In jail.
This morning It waa discovered
that he was not the man at all, al
though he answered the description
and had the same name. The negro
proved that he never resided here,
and, therefore, he could not have
committed the murder here. The ne
gro's boast to his wife in Newberti
that he had already kille done wife
was responsible for his arrest.
AT THK UKM.
It would be difficult to conceive a
more sweet and engaging story than
Through the Darkness. This Vita
graph production has been presented
with much care and attention as to
correct details which characterise
the work _of this well selected stock
company.
In the Dark Valley? This Kalem ,
picture is a reproduction of the aw- ,
ful Wyoming Valley massacre, so life- ,
like the film makes one feel almost as j
though they were living over the ,
scenes through which the victims of
the massacre passed. When a fllra j
carries such an Influence one cannot
question its strength. i
Three Queens and a Jack ? A bit of {
comedy that amuses the audience and

Pate Against Her ? Pate Is a

Sympathy when one person sees. an- i

out these points cloarly, and will |

Mr. Editor: I fully endorse the
suggestion that county office? should
be placed on salary and that the tax
payer* of the county receive the ben
efit of the amount to be saved there
by. I believe that there should be
strict economy used in the expendi
ture of public money as In the expen
diture of private funda. I pay no
more than what I believe to be a just
*gd fair compensation to my own
employee,. and the same rule should
be applied to public employee. With
fair aalary for county oncers and ?
two-term policy, the party will have
Uken a long step forward In the right
direction.
Yours very truly,
K. R. MIXON.
