Destiny Of Far Eastern Races.

Destitute OF stimulants from without,
the Indo-Aryan mind turned on itself and
consumed in metaphysics the imagination
which has made their cousins the leaders
in the worlds progress today. The in
evitable numbness Of monotony crept over
them. The deadly sameness Of their sur
roundings began to tell. The torpor OF
the east, like some paralyzing poison,
stole into their souls, and they fell asleep,
and did but dream in the land they had
formerly wrested from its possessors.
Their birthright passed into the west.
Artistic, attractive people that they are,
their civilization is Nike their tree flowers,
beautiful blossoms destined never to bear
fruit. For whatever We may conceive
their impersonaliry to foretell in the far
future of another life, Of one thing We
NAV be certain-its immediate effect can
not but be annihilating. II they continue
in their old course, their earthly career is
closed.
Just as surely as morning passes into
afternoon, SO surely are these races OF the
far east, il unchanged, destined to disap-
pear before the advancing peoples Of the
west. Vanish they will OF the face Of the
earth, and leave the planet the eventual
possession Of the dweliers in the days de-
cline. Unless their newly imported ideas
really take root it is from this whole world
that Japanese and Koreans, as well as
Chinese, will inevitably be excluded.
Even now Nirvana has come upon them.
Already it has wrapped far eastern Asia
ss with shroud woven Of the peaceful,
death like beauty OF the land Of the days
beginning and the land Of its morning
