Peace Talks in Standoff as Japan Rejects Unequal Peace
Russia seeks end to war with favorable terms but Japan rejects indemnity limits and insists on no surrender of concessions. Talks stall as Tokyo signals willingness to continue fighting, while Newton prepares a steam base with 3,500 investment by local youths. Local contest results highlight achievements in declamation, elocution, and music at Auburn and Montgomery schools, with Dr. Graves and Prof. Hogg stressing education and capable teachers. Classroom events and rallies are noted, with 65 pupils attending and plans for continued staffing through term.
