Sergeant Shickley Tells How Badly the Home Paper Is Missed j The Machine Gun Company of the Eighth Pennsylvania regiment in it-amp on the border at El Paso, Texas, | which was organized the early part of I this month in response to the demand i for such a company from the war de partment. has on its roster a goodly : percentage of Harrisburg boys who I were taken from the Governor's Troop, the artillery, and from various companies of the Eighth Infantry. Sergeant Shickley has written a let : ter to the Telegraph, in which he ex plains that since the machine gun company was organized, the boys who i compose it haven't had any news from home through the papers and that naturally they miss it badly. So a batch of Telegraphs is now being sent dally to the Eighth's machine ,gun company In care of Top Sergeant ! Russell Kinter, of this city, so that at least it cannot be said that the Harris burg boys are starving for want of news. What the Machine Gun Co. Is Doing Extracts from the letter follows El Paso. Texas. To the Editor of the Harrisburg Tele ; graph: ■ Dear Sir:—As I do not think your paper has heard of the organization of the machine gun company of the Eighth Regiment. I ask you to print this in your paper to let the people j know just what we are doing. This, company Was organized on Au gust 6 by R. C. Crow, who was in the ; commissary for years. The lieutenants are R. M. Biddle. of Fountain Springs, ; and J. G. Carroll, of Carlisle, both of w-hom have served quite a few years |as staff officers. The Harrisburg boys that are with the company are Rus 'sell Kinter. who is first sergeant, for i merly with Company I; Sergeants ; Burtnett. Gerdes. Shickley and Siat tery, Corporals Murlott and Farrall | and Privates Hopple, Shearer and | Cummings. all of whom were mem bers of Company D; Sergeant Zim merman and Privates Greenawalt, Brant and Crozier of Company I. The machine guns we have are the latest United States model, and al though there are no drill regulations i for the Lewis machine gun, that did not worry Captain Crow, for all his officers and men went right ahead and evolved some drill regulations of their own for the new gun; and they have i their work down so well that it can I hardly be improved upon. A sergeant and corporal and eight privates comprise a gun crew; the cor poral is the gunner, the sergeant is in charge of the crew, one man puts in the loaded magazines, another re moves the empty magazines, two men I carry the empties back to the rear and bring forward the loaded maga zines. while the other four remain in the rear to reload the empties. In the drilling of our machine gun company we have it down so speedy that we can unpack the gun and In stall it in its position for firing at an ! enemy in less than one minute. This is exceedingly fast work. All the regiments of the Pennsyl vania division are equipped with four Lewis machine guns each. These guns were manufactured in this countrv for the British army, but were side tracked by the border trouble. They ; only weigh 24 1 * pounds, have sixty two parts and can fire -440 shots a min ute. I We were out on the range to-day i and the officers and n*en were very much pleased at the way the guns were handled. The general and other lofficers of the Eighth regiment staff ] were with us and reviewed the work. These guns are transferred on auto j trucks. We have five trucks, one of which is used for hauling ammuni tion and the extra men to the front. If you will send us a few copies of I your paper, I know the bovs will en joy them just as they did before. Yours truly. 1 SERGEANT SHICKLEY. Machine Gun Co., Sth Pa. X. G. U.

Haskin (Continued from Page 6) rights away by treaty, might in certain ' cases do exactly the same thing by an exchange of notes. All this time, a double garrison of Japanese troops had been stationed in the north. Japan explained that the fresh troops had come to relieve those whose term of field duty had ex pired; but for some reason the relieved troops stayed on the job alongside the newcomers. When China asked when the garrison would be reduced to their i normal strength, she was bluntly in formed that this would be done as 1 soon as China had yielded to Japan's wishes in the negotiations. China replied to Japan's demands, yielding all that she well could, and a little more. China's position was par ticularly unpleasant, because even if ishe herself were willing to be swal HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH .lowed by her small and pugnacious 'neighbor—which she emphatically! was not—she knew that the other | powers would object Rigorously as soon as they had a hand free to ob- I ject with. In other words, the un- i I pleasant process of submitting to Ja- j pan would be followed by the still' more unpleasant process of being call ed to account by Europe for having! submitted. So China refused to yield j those points in the Japanese demands which would have infringed too flag , rantly on the rights of other nations. Japan sent an ultimatum. On receipt of the ultimatum, China j gave in. She had no other possible ■ I course. Her government was newly! set up and precariously balanced, her military and naval power negligible, j in spite of the fact that the number i of men fit for military service in China I is greater than the entire population of i Japan. The twenty-one demands jcame at a peculiarly inopportune time: for the Chinese government. They! did irreparable damage to its prestige : among the people, just as it was be ginning to get on its feet ai\d well I started toward restoring peace and or der in the Empire. Japan's demands j set back Chna's progress towards i strength and unity by years, perhaps 1 by decades. It is quite possible that j this was one of the objects Japan had , in mind. It is not inconceivable that' yourTOOTH BRUSH &9*//tst7oot6 7rouAfe:;> ' TOSSSSKs^f SENRECO.th. tooth pa.te that REALLY CLEANS. ha, been put to eoery t„t, ' % *"f pronounced good by hundred* of den fiats, many of whom arm uting it in their Co to your dealer today and mm* m #«JU crvorrn «. , . „ daily toilet in preference to other dentifrice*.

Whatever the Machiavellian motives land diplomatic complexities interwo- I ven in the situation, the fact remains that Japan forced her demands down China's throat at the point of an ulti j matum. The most violent anti-Japa nese partisan must pay the tribute of a certain admiration to Japan's daring policy if not to her principles. She i consummated the boldest and most | unscrupulous coup d' etat of modern ! I times. In the fact of the interests and i desires of the whole civilized world, a little island empire but fifty years | ' emerged from medievalism, staggering \ s under the burden of a colossal national I ! debt, with credit rapidly diminishing,! with the burden of militarism break ing the backs of her people, recklessly! i invaded the vested rights of the ! world's greatest powers, strode rough i shod over the sovereignty of a huge i ; helpless empire, met protests by denial 1 or calmly ignored them—and carried ; her program through.' Now Japan's' attitude is one of: "What are you go- I ing to do about it?" Of course, she was assisted by a i 'state of affairs unprecedented in Eu-! j ropean politics. She chose her time j 'carefully, and in the choosing there' 'AUGUST 23. 1916. ] was small compliment paid to the j United States of America. Japan ap- ( parently reasoned ' that "Europe is j busy, and America does't count." In this connection its interesting toi note the observations of a British mill- i i tary expert, correspondent of the Lon- i don Times and probably the best In formed man writing on the military I situation in the Far East. After an l analysis of Japan's military and naval J ; power, he comes to the conclusion that j only the military regeneration of the; United States or China can deprive j Japan of predominance in the further i Orient. "And to talk to a Japanese of i such possibilities," he says, "only pro | vokes a smile." In other words, Japan does not wor ry about what the United States may 'think of her Asiatic policy. This in [ spite of the fact that, after China, the! United States is the nation most con-1 cerned. The principles which Japan i violated were subscribed to by all the | j powers, but they were originally put] forward and sponsored by the United j ! States. The other powers may yet followi Japan's example and disregard those! ; principles; they may go back to the old sphere of influence doctrine and; Stake their profits at China's expense, j I There is no likelihood that Japan will stand in England's way, or Russia's 1 .way. England and Japan are allies, a , Russo-Japanese alliance is expected to ibe made public at any minute. The j interests of the United States will ba ! the ones to suffer, by far the most ser j iously. Our policy will be overridden, ; our principles mocked, and our com , mercial and industrial rights cast care j lessly aside. In spite of all this, Japan only watt ; ed until the hands of Europe were tied before aggressing on China. She j waited until only the United States | was free to protect the doctrine of equal rights. Then she went ahead. '• The end of the chapter has still to Ibe written. This is no matter of his tory; it is still molten, living, unsettled. Europe is still at war, with her word in the Orient still to- be said. The peace treaties have yet to be drafted. ; Meanwhile, Japan has gained the ad- I vantage of position in the Chinese Chess game. Meanwhile, our notes of | protest still lie in some pigeon hole in I Peking and in Tokyo. China herself lis still dealing with revolt and an j archy, which may at any moment fur |nish pretext for fresh aggressions. | The situation is fraught with a hun ! dred possibilities. Americans should j remember —what they seem prone to I forget—that for our nation the most | vital issued in the world-struggle is I not the fate of Belgium, or of Serbia, l or Poland. It is the fate of China. 3
