KOMURA ON SITUATION
.Sounds Reassuring Note on
Foreign Affairs
In regard to the California Situation
declared Tliut Japan is Confident
That the Ultimate Justice and Fair
mindedness of the American Peo
ple Will Preclude the Possibility of
International Complications.'
( By Cable to The Times) -Toliio,
Feb. . 2 Forefgn Minister
Koninra, iu an address to the- lower
house of the diet today, sounded a
most reassuring note to the world in
general in his remarks on the empire's
foreign relations. In regard to the
threatened anti-Japanese legislation:
In Califoujia he declared the Japan
in California he declared that Japan
and fair-mindedness of the American
people and the friendly disposition of
the United Slates government will
preclude the possibility of interim-
" l.ioiinl complications.
"The foreign policy of this em
pire," said Count Komura in begin
ning his address, "should have as an
object the maintenance of peace and
the development of national rocourc-
. es."
Of Japan's relations with America,
he said: .
"The friendship of Japan and the
United States Is traditional, and it. is
absolutely esseatial that both main
tain iininiiJiiiK d those sent intents of
amity and extend and .-strengthen
.Ilium by every means."
Me was convinced, he said, thai the
recent exchange) of.- diplomatic- noien
between Japan and the United States
would be largely instrumental. .in prer
serving the peace of the Orient,
Count Komura' said Japan's rela
tion:) ulth England,'-.'-Germany and
Kussia wore on a satisfactory fooi
ing. Concerning China, he said:
"Japan is watching, naturally,
with keen interest and sympathy the!
progress of reforms In China. And
it is our earnest hope that the states
men of China will preserve domestic
order and tranquility. We have in
variably made it a guiding rule to
observe the open-door principle with
equal opportunity to China and we
are firmly determined to adhere to
that, policy with unansweriirg loyal
ty." The department of the empire's re
sources, he said, in conclusion, "make
it necessury that its people, instead
. .of scattering hi distant lands, shall
concentrate in the far east. These
considerations," he continued, "have
led the government to follow an
avowed policy with respect to emi
grants to Canada and the United
States, enforcing in perfect good
faith the restrictions placed on emi
gration." Taken Back to Clinton Today
house, the brute choked the defenseless
woman and threatened to cut her
throat, when she broke away and ran
screaming into the yard. The negro
gave pursuit and was in the act of
dragging her back Into the house when
her screams attracted the attention of
a young white man passing, who
reached the sceno In time to see the
negro flee to the woods. Blood hounds
from the convict camp at Clinton were
put on the trail three hours later and
the negro was Anally captured, after
some resistance, In the edge of a
swamp, when he was absolutely Identi
fied by his victim.
The crowd of citizens became en
raged and It seemed for awhile that
Ward would be lynched. Sheriff Mc
Phail waa equal to the occasion, how
ever, and taking the negro in his bug
gy, ho raced to the Jail at Clinton,
leading an angry mob. He beat the
mob to jail, landed his prisoner be
hind the bars and Immediately wired
to Governor. Kitohln for military aid.
The governor quickly called out the
Clinton Light Infantry and placed it
Sheriff McPhull's disposal. The Jail

was guai (led all that night, but next
day everything seemed to have quieted
down and the danger over. The mili
tary company was dismissed.
Everything was not as quiet ns it
seemed to be and the sheriff got wind
of a conspiracy to interrupt the due
course of law and give the neck of Will
Ward an Impromptu stretching. The
plan was to storm the Jail and the
move was looked for on the night of
Sunday, January 24th. Sheriff McPhail
was again too resourceful for the ad
herents of Judge Lynch. In company
with his most efficient and faithful
deputy, Whitfield Tart, he took his
prisoner and drove through the country
from Clinton to Faycttcville and
boarded the train fur Raleigh. The
party ai rived in Haleigh on the morn
ing of Monday, January 25th, and the
culprit was placed within the strong
walls of the penitentiary, were he en
Joyed perfect safety until this morn
ing. To the nervy, resourceful sheriff is
due great credit and Ward's extended
lease on life. The outcome of the trial
Is looked to with great interest, not
only by the people of Sampson, but by
I he entire state.

For
Backache, Headache
and other pains, all over a woman's body, are often
caused by some, not well understood, female disease.
. No one can tell just where female trouble will
affect you. It acts in a different way on different
people. Hence, treating the symptoms gives but
tittle benefit, and the most successful' method may
be said to be the treatment of the cause which you
may do, by taking Cardui.
What Cardui has done for other women, it ought
