WILL JAPAN sTOPI

China cries "Enough" and wants to
quit fighting. But Japan will not have
II SO. and seems to be bent on directing
her forces on Pekin.
Thus far Japan has shown her su-
periority over China as Il fighter. She
can now probably make about her own
terms for peace, and thus gain a sub
stantial benefit from the war. But 1t
must be remembered there are a great
many people in China, and II may be
found that even Chinese are dangerous
foes when their country Is trodden by
an enemy and their homes are invaded.
No one likes to see nation overrun
by a foreign army. The sympathy of
the world was largely with France
when the Germans were on her soil
and laying siege to her capital. The
idea of the violation of home sanctity
and the thought of the sufferings OF
women and children in the track OF the
invaders will always turn the scale OF
humanity on the side of the country
invaded.
Better be contented with your good
fortune, Mr.. Mikado. make peace anc
keep your gallant warriors at home.

GETTING LIGHT.

1t begins to look as II the Republi-
cans recognize the change that has
taken place in the political outlook
within the past few days and are taking
alarm at the signs seen all around.
There is less disposition now to play an
opera-bouffe game with poor Quigg, or
a blum game with a reputable and in
all but politics a desirable candidate
like Mr.. Bliss.
The Tribune has heretofore backed
mp Boss Plat in the demand for
straight" Republican ticket Its first
weakening was when 1t manifested n
willingness to give up all but Mayor.
Its backdown seems TO be complete
now, when 1t practically kicks poor
Quigg out, strips off his peacock
feathers and declares the candidate
must be not so much a politician as IA
successful and experienced business
man, identified with the moral and
material development OF New York"
