CHINAMUsT WIN.

That victory must finally perch
upon the banner of the Mongolians,
in the fight with their japanese
neighbors, seems to be the senti-
ment, of the majority of those best
posted on the situation. In this
connection the Chicago Inter Ocean
has this to say.
Commander V. Behr of the Rus
sian cruiser Kreisser, and Lieuten-
ant lstomeson, of the Russian CRUZ
ser Rynda, passed through the city
yesterday. They were en- route
from Corea, where they we're in the
Siberian squadron, having been re-
called to take command in the Bal
tic squadron. The Russian naval
officers left Nagasaki, Japan, on the
day war with China was declared
and sailed on the boat with Kurino,
the new Japanese minister, and
Admiral Skerrett, of the United
States navy. Lieutenant Istome-
son was one of the party of officers
who accompanied the grand duke
to Chicago last summer.
Japan will whip China on Corean
soil" said Commander Behr, "but
she can do nothing in the direction
of pushing the war on Chinese soil.
Nor can she hold her sway in Corea
if the Chinese government is not
disposed to give up its control,
China has oyerpowering numbers on
her side and can tire out Japan. 1t
costs money to carry on a war. ia
pan can not command the resources
of China and she will play out if
China is disposed to weary her. The
Japs are plucky fighters. They
nave modern methods; they are OF
superior intelligence, Then China
is a century behind her little neigh
Dor. Her salvation is in her num-
beers. The result of the war in my
opinion is in doubt; it is a war be-
tween known quantity and great
unknown quantity. Russia is
watching the fight with some inter-
est. Corea is our next neighbor,
Our government has eight war ships
in the harbor at Vladivostock, ready
to sail to Corea in two hours no
tice"

HAwAIrs LABOR PROBLEM.
Plantations Cut Into Small Holdings
and Leased On Shares.

Il hsve lived in the islands for
twenty,six years" said j. \. Wright,
an Hawaiian sugar planter, at the
Occidental last evening, land We
never had a Government like the
present. II is conducted economically
and on q cash basis. AT the end of
the month sill employees are paid.
Under the Queen everything was in
shinplssters, which had to be dis
counted.
Hawaii is American and should
be annexed. As We cannot be annex
ed now. it is just as well to visit
until the Republicans come into
power.
ave can adjust in the meantime
our labor problem. If annexation
came at once contract labor would
be prohibited. The Chinese lsborers
then would strike for wages which
we could not afford to pay, knowing
that We could not replace them.
The planters now are cutting up
their sugar plantations into small
holdings and leasing them on shares,
snd this will be the eventual solution
of the labor problem.
The revolution had to come. If
the Queen hsd not been dethroned
We would all have been bankrupt
within three months. If she were
restored she could not remain on the
throne unless kept there by the force
of sn American srmy."-S. f.
