CHINA DISAPPOINTED BY
PEACE TERMS
None of the Allies emerges from the
war in. a more discouraged frame of
mind than China. It may be that
China expected too much; it may be
that what she desired :to- have she was
trot entitled to, or, as is more prob-
able, the Allies did not find it cpn-
irenient to grant the Chinese re-
quests, and were much . less worried
about China's reservations with re-
Bard to signing the peace treaty
than if another Oriental power had
;tiefused to sign. Nevertheless, it is
tone the less probable that _ in the
peace treaty, which : disappointed
+Chir, are the seeds of future agi-
tation and unrest, and it is possible
the germs of - another war. All that
needs to make the last conjecture
inevitable is the strength of China'.
If and when she • has advanced as a
military power she may be expect-
ed to demand. that japan surrender
the rights the Peace Conference has
given her, and if Japan refuses
there may be a new Yellow peril which
will laugh at Leagues of Nations that
it does not like.
It is the Shantung. Peninsula that
May make trouble in the future?' The

l:n' vs, was boldy seized. by . Ger-
many in 1898. It was a simple act
of brigandage. Germany built up
a treat port and fortress at Tsing-
tau, which Japan regarded as a
ineiia€:e-. When Japan entered the

ely made an effort to capture this

\vac- cast doubt that the war would
have been shortened by a couple of
years? There are various explana-
tions for Japan's inaction, and so far

to de differently by the other Allies.

—Little Rowe Dinney, the two year
old son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Din-
ney-, of Exeter, narrowly escaped
serious injury if not t instant death on
Friday about noon. Mr Dinney had
driver ip with a load of furniture
supplies and was unloading a large
bundle of mattresses. The little tot,
who, a few seconds previously was
some distance away, had run up to o the
side of the rig unnoticed, and the large
bundle; obscuring Mr. Dinney's view,
landed on top of the little fellow.
Luckily a citizen happened along at
the time of the acciaient otherwise the
little chap may have been smothered
before he was discovered. When pick-
ed up he was apparently badly in-
jured, but on. being examined by a 1
physician it was found that no bones
were broken, and that no bad results
are likely to follow.
STOMACH TROUBLE
Comes When the Blood is Weak
And Watery:,
Thin blooded people generally
stomach trouble. But they seldom re-
cognize the fact that thin blood is the
cause of their indigestion, but it is.
Thin blood is one of too most com,-
mon causes of stomach ' trouble tit
affects the digestion very quickly.

have
The ;lands that furnish the digest ve
fluids are diminished in their activ-

ed and there is a loss -of nerve force.
In this stn.te of health nothing will
more quilkly restore the appetite, di-
gestion and normal nutrition than
good, rich red blood.
rotzky
the Actor
RO#CY? 'Lenine? .Yes, the
two Bolshevists who hold is
their grasp the fate • of greet
—' • Russia, are invariably link
ed together in. the mind of the
world. Yet, according to a writes is
the London Thues, they are wholly;
unlike. The latter, it seems, Is "al..
most entirely devoid of temper-
ment. But Trotsky, on the other
hand, is "all fire and passion." We
read:-- ,
•
•
"He has the temperament • of their i
artist and delights in theoretical he-
roles, While Lenine sneers at publie'
honor, presumably on the grounds
that there is no honor among thieves,
and therefore none among capitalists,
Trotzky' makes great play with the
word. He was defending Russia's
`honor' at Brest. It pleased him to
handy paradoxes with the German
generals, and his sense of flattery
was tickled •when a well-known
American declared in admiration the
`if the German General Staff bought
Trotzky they bought a lemon.' After
Erest, however, the lemon was' in-
deed sour. Trotzkyjs dignity -had suf-
fered an affront, and he returned tO
Petrograd full of wrath with Ger-
tarty and breathing threats of re-
venge. At that mom nt he would
willingly have died lighting if all
Russia had been present to see him
'`do it."
When the Bolshevist Government
left Petrograd in order to ratify the;
peace at the Moscow congress'
''Trotzky remained behinri to sulk Is!;'
his den at Smolny. A. Yew days later,
however, his equanimity was restor-
ed by the offer of the Commissariat
for 'War—an office is which his
boundless' energy and organizing tal-
ents have been of the greatest ser
vice to: the Bolshevists. Impetuoun
and hot-headed, he is apt, like the
Queen in `'Pice in. Wonderlancli,' to
solve evervetisiswith•awild'shriek of
'Off with his head!' On more than
one occasion, it has needed all Le -
nine's 'tact and discretion to rescue
the Bolshevist bark from the rocks s.
on to which Trotzky's fiery energy
had -driven it. .
"Among his colleagues Trotzky
does `not enjoy thesame respect or
admiration' as Lenine, and in this
connection too much importance
should nat. be attached to "the fre-
quent rumors of quarrels between
the two men. They are probably un-
true. Bolshevist commissaries, will
alw s smile whenever one menions
the, possibility of a Lenine-Trotzky
split. Trotzky, after all, is only one
of themselves. Lenine is of the gods..
"This does not mean that Trotzky
is to be considered as an insignificant
factor in the Bolshevist movement.
Originally useful as a journalist and
a pamphleteer, he has become to -day
the Bolshevist man of action, the
Bolshevist - imperialist. The Red
army, such as it is, is largely his
Creation."
Trotzy, the orator--
"is a powerful demagogue, hissing
out his words with. a degree of hate`
which is not without effect. He• is
apt, however, to lose his tem;. er in
the face of opposition and t take
refuge in ere abuse. Rum .r has
.many unkind things to say about his 4
private Iifej and his commercial hon-
esty. They may be untrue, but ,they
give an illustration t1f the different
estimate of the characters of Lenine
and Trotzky which exists in the mind
of the Russian people. AlWays neat-
ly dressed and with carefully mani-
cured nails,ohe,is the best dressed of
all the Bolshevist commissaries. Vain
and easily susceptible to flattery,, he
is by no means averse from publicity
and is, or at any rate was, far more
accessible to foreign journalists than
his more famous colleague. To -day
he has imitated Rerensky's fasjilon
of appearing at Red army concerts
or parades in. a semi -uniform of
khaki, and evelti:, hI own friends• have
tauhted him - fwith Napoleonic de-
signs, .,
` "When the world is gging well
with him he can be very affable, and,
indeed, is • not -.without a certain
charm : of manner. In this way he
has ° been able at times to make a,
favorable first impression upon for-
eigners, one American in a fit of ex-
uberation once describing him as
`the greatest Jew sande Christ.' These
impressions, however, do .not stand
the test of time. Behind those fierce
black eyes lurks ewer the demon of
suspicion , and distrust. It is this
ever-present fear of treachery which
inspires the terrible, pitiless cruelty
of which he has been guilty. It was
probably after much . hesitation and
with some misgivings that Trotzky
nally threw in his lot with the Bol -
h
evists. To -day, however, he knows
shat he has crossed a Rubicon . to
hich there is no returning. More
conscious ., of, less indifferent, too,
than Lenine to the fate that ' awaits'
him in the event of -failure, he is pre-
pared to sell his life ,dearly and to
•;.shrink before nothing `in his attempt
to carry Bolshevism by fair means
or foul into the four corners of .
Europe."
