The new pulley is, in fact, a development •ilj the single lav proposal ol Mr. Henry fl.tirge, the American writer,, which suggested Ihe extinction of rent hr taxing the landlord up, to thc lull value ol his land. The whole thing is a party move, ol course, a 'little liver pill' to remedy the torpor from which J.lberal- ism is beginning to suffer." Another London Unionist paper, the, Express says: "When Mr. Lloyd Oeorge under his 'grcnt' budget ol 1909, undertook a valuation ol all the land in England, the lExprcas predicted that thc valuation would tionali/alion, and not as the cnan- rellor of the exchequer and his cellor ol the exchedner and hi* henchmen declared, merely for the purpose of the comparatively light taxation under that budget. Developments iu the last tew days prove llu- truth of thi* prophecy, Mr. Hundreds killed and between FIVE AND SIX THOUSAND INJURED. namesake, tile late Hr. Henry ficorge." I Up to the present there has been no parly as tn thc adoption ol a new official announcement by the Liberal uud advanced policy on the land question. Nor is it likely that any definite programme in this regard will be formulated until tbe labors ol tbc committee oo local and imperial taxation, appointed by . tbc cabinet, are concluded. It is interesting to recall tbat in May- ol last ' year more than 170 Radical and Labor members ot the house ol commons memuralized the government In lavor ol lurtber land relorm. Tbey waited upon Premier Asiinith and Chancellor Lloyd Oeorge representing to them that the separate valuation ol land, which was lieing carried out all over the United Kingdom, would provide a Inundation lor giving tbe people a mere equitable distribution ol, the burdens ol tbe state, and at tbe same time open up Ihe land to those who could make the heat use ot It. Ruth ministers expressed their sympathy witb the views ol the delegation. Lloyd Oeorge, especially, admitted the urgency ol the problem, but be pointed out that it hod obviously to be considered in connection with thc readjustment ol imperial ami local taxation which waa then engaging attention. He suggested that some members nl the deputation lay Iheir views before tbe commit'.*' on Imperial and local taxation, and this advice, It is understood, has recently been acted upon. Mr. Asquith declared tke question to In one ol great Importance, both la its urban and ita rural aspect, and for the moment he tlaiught tbe rural aspect the more urgent ol tbe two. Towards the end ol the lollowlng November Lloyd Oeorge attended the annual imeotlng ol the National Liberal federation at Bath. During the course nl the greeting tie chancellor made the lollowlng significant declaration: "What is the most urgent nerd ol Britain today? tt Is the regeneration ol rural Britain, and you will nnt do that without a complete relorm ol the land laws.

The newspapers estimate the number ol victims at 1000 killed while tbc injured are said to number Irom 5000 to 0000. The details of tke earthquake, which are coming in slowly owing to the interruption ol Uie wires, Indicate that the seismic disturbance was widespread. Several hundred persons have been killed, thousands are homeless and outbreaks ol fire have occurred in many towns and villages. (Ireat destruction has been caused hy the upheaval.

MADE HIS MARK IN HISTORY SKETCH OP REMARKABLE CAREER OP LATE EMPEROR OF JAPAN. There is no great potentate about whom so little has been known as thc Emperor Mutsuhito ol Japan an.] nt. ruler of today who has made so ■great a mark in history as lie who has led his peoiilr from fcinlalism ami, an effete Orientalism In the forefront of western civilization. In the reiirji of a sinirlc monarch Japan has emcrgi-fl from an obscure ami unknown Asiatic kingdom to a great st'lf-ii<n-i-iiiiin; nation which has incorpnrat.il into its customs of government und education the finest products ol western achievement. Tho empire nl Japan shall lie reign.*! over and governed liv a line nl eii.iierois unbroken for ages i-ler- nal. This sentence, the first article In the constitution nf Japan, contains in its brevity and simplicity tlie keynote of the government of Japan, apart from which no consideration ot Emperor Mutsuhito Is possible. It Is thc simplest expression ol tlie. Japanese belief in the mythical divinity ol the imperial lainily and the eternal continuity ol the sovereign power. The man in whom this power is centred has held it Irom 1887, throughout thc period ol the awakening nl new Japan. He was thc 122nd emperor ot his line and his ancestry is traced unbroken to the year t60 n. C. At that remote date even the emperor was regarded as of divine, immemorial origin. The figure of the man who brought his empire through one of the most remarkable developments the world has ever seen has heen almost obscured. The world knows little and bas seen less of this diminutive ruler whose people it has learned to respect. Florid ol countenance and sombre of mien, with the great, drooping moustache of a mandarin concealing his mouth, Mutsuhito bore little outward mark of the mighty sovereign. Through the rec. rood centuries the emperor has been thc one unchanging figure in Japan. Enveloped in a limitless put he has remained thc lined point ot Japanese national _ life, so that bit sanctity and inviolability ot person are now nn more questioned than the rising of tbe sun. So tar above the piano of toe European doctrine ol "divine right ot kings" do thc Japanese held their emperor that his sanctity it almost independent ol his personality. He it invested with such high attributes that no. emperor could hope further to elevate his position la tbe national mind by his own acts. There it no adding to or subtracting Irom the emperor's powers. He combinci within himsell all the rigbtt to sovereignity tnd never was bc lorced tc, contend for the preservation ol those rights. Tbe power* ol government now possessed by the people ot Japan were freely given them by Emperor Mutsuhito; not one was wrested trom him. This very exaltation of tbe emperor's position Is largely responllMc lor the hasty conclusion of western observers that Mutsuhito waa but an inanimate lorm about which all tbe outer vestments ol sanctity and sovereignty were draped by the ruling classes. Since tbc reported imminence ol his death became public this slighting view ol the emperor hat been widely spread. lusl how much credit fnr national achievements must ot necessity be given to Mutsuhito cannot be appreciated until one recalls tbat during those decades ol transition the emperor held undlmlnlined the authority transmitted to him through tba •get. Ile has possessed throughout his reign the perlervid devotion ol his subjects tn a degree equalling a religious worship. Ile has been Iden- tiiied with, all that is Iheir own, with tbeir beautiful Islands, tlieir religion tnd their language. He hat represented no. conquering race, no alien estate, no compulsory end. He bas been Japanese, ol Japan, and Uie Japanese. Tht meta- morpbctls ot the nation and Its people could not have taken place without the leadership ot tbe man who held such a Place at Mutsuhito held at emperor. Opposition trom him< would have stemmed that Inflow Irom the Occident and cut ot abort at my time die national career of which he was unquestionably tbe (Ulde and tbe inspiration. Emperor Mutsuhito fell It to bis ministers to conceive, to plan and to mn.lt. Vot MMtJi, rar self, he reserved the olllcc of nrliiU'r j when questions ol policy arose ami I ol leader when lie hail mado hi* decisions. Perhaps hi* mosl ilis-lin- guishlng chariieterislic as a sovereign was his soundness of judgment and his ability to consider opposing. views iu the councils without prejudice. | Possessing the genius f,.i selecting t-apahle and wise men to advise uml to execute, he lias been willing to accept their counsels niul sanction 'tlieir derds, bringing to his Cask a remarkable fund of common sense anil practicality, It is said by authority the more reliable iiceiiiisc cot {'Japanese t-lisl Emporox Mutsuhito was never Influenced in his action-. .by small men ol sina'I niolivis. .Those whose counsels ho accpi.teil have proved to be Uie greal men of iiioili-in Japan Once accepted Iiy the emperor, these counsellors had his unwavering support Thej were not obliged to manoeuvre for a place al the Hirone.

Hon. ll. I.. Honii'ii apparently recognlws tho futility of his recent, utterances in this regard ami is now prepared tn advocate a "rmitid table" conference at Ottawa, at whieli lit. Hon. Sir Wilfrid jLfttirlcr. nml other Liberal leaders will he present, to consult with Mr. Winston Churchill, first lord of 'the admiralty. Tbis Is putting the plan outlined in the London cable- despatches very briefly, but qui In clearly. Whether or not Sir Wilfrid Laurler will see his way clear to participate in such a conference remains to be seen, but it Is reasonably certain that the Liberal chieftain will be ready to make aay sacrifice of party advantage to aid in the settlement nf a question whieli appears to be entirely beyond Uncapacity of the Tory leader and his counsellors. It is to to hoped that the talking aboul Canada's participation in Oreat Drltaln's naval affairs will soon cease and that soim'thing practical will shortly eventuate. Thc original Lffiiricr policy seems to be the one solution of the problem that will appeal most strongly lo the Canadian people as a whole, and one cannot but think tHiit in tbc outcome Hon. It. L. Horden will be compelled to adopt it, along Hues sufficiently modified to save his face. For a long time past the Herald has been persistently and cnnslstciit-ly advocatiuc a vigorous policy ol land settlement, witb particular regard to tlie Kast, Kootenay tlittriet. At the outset our efforts In this direction were condemned by the Mcllride government organs, as purely partisan attacks upon that administration. However, the facts are gradually penetrating the editorial offices of somo of lhe chief organs of thc Mcltride administration and more or less frank appeals arc lieing made to premier Mcllride to arouse himself to the necessity of grappling with what is undoubtedly the greatest problem confronting this province at the present moment. A tht it! onal and extremely satisfactory endorsement of the Herald's altitude on this subject comes from such an entirely non-partisan source as Archbishop McNejI, nf Vancouver, who, in tlu* course nf a recent public address, delivered before lhe Progress cltlb id the Terminal City, spoke with unusual force and emphasis tn the subject of land settle* limit in this province and of the urgent duty of ibe government nf the day to Ik- up and doing- That the settlement of Die country districts is aol at all in proportion with the development ot Vancouver and other Cities of llie province nnd that the future of Hritish Columbia should tw insured by. the creation of substantial farming communities, was the statement and warning given by Archbishop McNeil, in tho course of his address. "I wish to state this." pronounced the .irehbislu p in concluding a not- aMe spi*ech. "Vou, the business men ot Vancouver, m-cd a buffer between you and—I will not say a slump or panic—but rather a stringency. Vou are on tho crest (,f the wave at the present time. "It a l.uropcan war brottO out, Vancouver would In* one of tbc places to to hardest hit, ns Ruro|iean capi- 3 f tal, whieh has been and is onft ol the big factors in tlie'building up of tbis city, would be deflected. "Mining and fisheries are Industries conducted by a few wealthy men or companies. in times of stringency they can close their purses ami wait for better limes. Hut in a large [arming community you have men who cannot close down. They must sell their produce and thus, iu times of stringency, thc burden is equally shared, as they must lower the prices ot foodstuffs In order to sell. In this manner hard times may he bridged over with a minimum of discomfort. "The man who comes here, who should go on thc farm, gets employment as a laborer at fairly high wages, and catching the spirit of speculation, puts his money in a town or city lot. He tries to get out on Ibe lund eventually, but he finds he cannot sell his lot with thc present current high prices. "In tho lower Fraser valley there is a magnificent tract of a country tbat should be all settled by this time. The government has spent $1,000,000, more or less, In dyking that part of the province. There ale thousands of acres of dyked liver bottom laml In the lower Fraser valley that are not being used today. They are unoccupied because the speculators are holding them for high pr ces which thc intending farmer cannot afford to pay. "In my opinion conditions are sucli that tho government is Uie only* or* gani/ation capable of handling tbe problem', In New /calami eighteen years ago the government .organized a low rate of interest tor farmers loans. Get after the government and Influence them to organize a loan department that will take mortgages at a low rate ot interest and ut a minimum ot cost." Archbishop McNeil's remarks naturally had more specific reference lo conditions on thc coast than to those prevailing in tbc up-country, Hit they none the less form an effective criticism ot the government's apathy, throughout tlie province iq tikis connection. Here, in this great Kast K co tenay country, we know that tbere are thousands upon thousands ot acres of the finest agricultural lands lying useless, because of the very difficulties outlined by thc archbishop. Wc know that it tbe Mcllride, or any other government, would tackle tbis question In the proper spirit, in thc course ot a very few years the Kast Kootenay district would In producing agricultural products, of one kind and another, including live stock, fruits and vegetables, that would make an enormous d (Terence in thc totals of food s luffs imported from the United States and other countries, besides .Hiding immensely to the prosperity of the towns throughout tbc distriet. Conditions are so obvious that it is remarkable tbat llie Me- Biiilc government do not make some lumest effort to grapple with the situation, and it is more remarkable that the electors do not insist upon some definite action being taken promptly. From present indications It is clear thai the people of the whole province are becoming alive to the urgency of tbcT-,ituat.oti and the Mcllride government will either have to get busy, or give way to an administration alive to the best interests t the province as a whole., A large measure of support has been gained by the Mcllride government because of Its railway policy, but no matter how good that may have been, and much of ft is open to serious criticism, it inust.be perfectly obvious '1 ha t wit Ikki I some active, well thought out scheme for the settlement of the public lands, ttie best of railway policies cannot in tbe long run accomplish a great deal. It is true that there arc difficulties in the way, but no greater than have lieen met and overcome etsewfiere in, the world.

Tboro wns a fairly good attendance nt tlm meeting ol tlio Parmer's Institute last evening, when excellent papers wero given by Mr. ,1. II. McClure and Mr. 0. A. Cock. Mr. C. A. Cook gave a paper on tlie breeding and bundling .,( sheep In tbe Itowney Marsh country ol Kent, England, anil described in detail tlte operations ul tin- llm-k muster and bis helpers ilir.iii.gli.nil Ihe year In ehe Inline of the Itowney Marsh breed of she.1i, relating the precautions necessary to successfully li,iiniii' a flock where by reason of tbe wrt many difficulties arc encountered In the work, At tbe close nl Mr. Cock's remarks n number of tin1 members present discussed tbe p. ssiliilltlm ol sheep breeding iu Kootenay, and the sense ot those present was that it would nc almost useless to attempt it, except in coyote prool enclosures as is done in Oregon, Calltornla, and otlier states uf the union. At llie usual price ot mutton here even thus outlay ought to bc well repaid as the vegetation is tar better adapted to sheep than to cattle Mr. ,1. II. McClure gave a paper on strawberry culture, in whieh he slated that a peculiar characteristic ol this district in bis experience was that manured lands gave lar too much plant growth to procure tbe Inst results in Iruit. He emphasized the netd ol trc- if.icnt working ot the soil before tween rhe old matted row _ and the possible store of moisture, and said his -best results had been where he retarded the growth of the plants lo be act until alter the transplanting was accomplished. He lelt convinced that by digging the fall belore and carefully heeling in over winter this was most easily accomplished Mr. McClure much preferred the hedge row, a midway system between the old matced row and the bill system, as neat suited to local conditions and recommended thc twelve tooth cultivator as the most, fitting tool for use in tlte strawberry plantation, especially' where moisture was lacking. Spcak- ng nl winter mulch. Mr. McClure lelt that one was always safer to apply this, although lie had not done so last year, hnj such a winter could not often Hie looked Inr. On the question ol removing the mulch an animated discussion ensued, one member recommending chat it be allowed lo remain and alter the Iru ting season burning it oft along with the old foliage ot the plantt. This Is a plan olten used In Uieeast bul tbc tense of the meeting teemed to be that such a method was too wasteful ot vegetable matter to be employed in a country where tht soil is already depleted of such matter, as well as the difficulty of putting out Tire in the summer here with safety. After a rccoinmrndt- lion nl sorts lound adapted to the district by'Mr. McClure and tome general discussion nl the laxity ol enforcement of the noxious weeds act by the government authorities the meeting was brought to a. clone by a hearty vote ol thanks to Mr. Cock and Mr. McClure Inr their Interesting papert. f CHURCH COLUMN CATHOLIC CHURCH.

Carney "lllytlie Gay," arrived in Elko Sunday morning and immediately began spreading tlie sunshine with a new poem eltlitlcd "Walk, i.osh Darn Yuu, Walk." The heroes nl the poem arc Klko residents, who lelt Klko last week In an auiumobilc and returned weary and tool-sore afld louking as II they had loads nn tlieir minds as big at a haystack.

Weel, Hilly, at night yc mon send up a red rocket every mile and then wail ten minutes for the road to clear. Then yc mon go vary careful ye ken blowing your horn and' shooting Human candles. You have oil heard them say that patience, perseverance and sweet nil would make hens lay. Hut all the persuasion those men could use that bu//. wagon would nut climb that hill. Thoy took the machine apart and rebuilt it, but nn good, and it was walk, gosh darn ynu, walk, and they came into town the hack way and In at the back doors, After satisfying the Inner iiiuu they look a team of Ivory handled mustangs to bring tla- disturbance into town. They got tlu blamed thing onto the grade so no une could pass and came in lor two mure teams, -and held two livery ig* and another auto until midnight before tbey could get passed. MacKcnzie told the writer that for concentrated, triple distilled, double iss excitement, he certainly would 1,'ftinunend Klko.

It presses hard on some, on a few its effect is a negligible quantity. THE enterprising merchant is thoroughly alive to the fact that the high cost of living is in many cases an oppressive burden. He knows that the margin between income and expenditure is often a very narrow one, He buys newspaper space to let people know that he knows, In short, he advertises. The merchant who advertises has something worth while to tell. That stands to reason, doesn't it, because newspaper space costs money ? It will pay, , you, therefore, to watch carefully the announcements of the stores that advertise. You'll find all the good stores advertising in "THE HERALD" * I r H E persistent reader of newspaper adver- ■"■ tisements has discovered the best way to combat the high cost of living. His dollar has a greater buying power than that of the non-reader —or spasmodic reader—of ads because he employs it with more knowledge and more discrimination. It is an easy matter to cut down your living expenses by fifteen, twenty, or twenty- five per cent.—and even more—by being a caretul student of the daily store ads.

He mado ! a broad road to it and placed a teat there. From it a very dm view It obtained ol Table Bay in tbe Atlantic to the north and of Fake Bay in the Indian ocean to the south, as well aa ol tbe Cape . Flats and the distant mountain ranges stretching lor a hundred miles to the east and nortii.
