listing among his people toward

Government.
The ready submission of the Jap
anese common people to the die
tates of their rulers is one OF the
distinguishing characteristics OF
the race, and far from assuming q
threatening attitude, the express
sions of Mr.. Shimizu and Mr..
Kurino indicate comparative indif-
ference, if not friendliness. Fur
thermore, the action of the Euro
pean nations leaves the United
States az the only nation upon
whose kindly Offices the japanese
can depend in the future as they
have done in the past. Further
more, Japan must recognize, as do
other nations, the natural right OF
the United States to control
Hawaii, and any disposition to
usurp that control would practi-
cally ostracize that country from
friendly relations with all the
Anglo-Saxon powers. This condi-
ton we do not believe the rulers of
Japan will be quick to bring upon
themselves and their country.
Again, it is not reasonable to
believe that either England, Russia,
France or Germany would look on
with indifference and allow Japan
csc military control of this strong
hold of the Pacific. Thus it appears
that commercial supremacy is prac-
tically the only fear which Hawaii
may have for Japan. It is Ameri-
can, English, German and French
push and energy against that of
the Japanese people, fair fight,
in which the best man wins.

ADMIRAL MEADE has evidently
been near the boiling point for some
time, but unlike the majority of
his naval colleagues has dubbed
over. Such demonstration at a
point in his career when most men
would have stood even indignities
rather than incur the displeasure of
their superiors indicates that the
aggravation must have been I'M
usual. The Admiral does not mince
matters, and before the popular
court his experience will give his
opinions upon the proper action of
a naval commander in a foreign
country quite as much weight as
those of his superiors, whose knowl-
edge obtained from travel and per-
sonal contact with problems as
they appear to Americans in for
eign countries must of necessity be
somewhat limited.

TIE agitation of an American

TIE agitation of an American
protectorate over Nicaragua may
result in an expression of the Amer
lean people on protectorates in
general as applied particularly to
the United States. The San Fran
cisco Chronicle says: eff there be
any one thing that is unsatisfactory
from an international point of view
it is protectorate. It is too much
like the little, veal fellow who
hired a prize-fghter as a body
guard, and then worked him nearly
to death. The protector gets all the
kicks and none of the ha'pence."
We are inclined to believe that the
concensus of American opinion
would be annexation or nothing.

HEDGING JAPANESE MILITARY POWER.

Japan continues to hold prom
inent place in the foreign dis
patches, and to all appearances
that little kingdom is very much in
the hands of her enemies. With
Russia, Germany and France rob-
bing her Of the concessions OBJ
tanned on the mainland, we now
have France and very likely Great
Britain combining to take away
the island of Formosa, which leaves
little more than the money indem-
nifty to reward the brilliant cam
paign of the Japanese military
forces. The time has evidently
come when the European nations
must show their hands and state in
terms that cannot be mistaken
their intention Of controlling the
Eastern hemisphere and first of all
protect their own home industries.
There is little else for Japan to do
but bow in quiet submission, as the
combination seems complete and
unrelenting. The weakness of the
Chinese empire precludes the pro-
liability Of an Oriental alliance,
and leaves japan 20 fight it's battles
unaided by friendly power.
Only in the light of the old
adage that "might makes right"
can the action of the European
powers be excused. Japan's COM
mercial supremacy is feared and
the dislike of these Europeans for
the sharp competition that may be
anticipated has caused them to
step beyond the bounds of justice
and very likely stay the advance of
civilization in the East. Japanese
civilization may be inferior to
European, but it was by means of
Japanese energy that European
civilization has made such un-
usual gains in the East. In the
question of right and justice Japan
might now be able to give the great |
powers few instructions.
There is a certain significance in |
this action Of the foreign powers,
also the remarks of Minister Ku-
rino at Washington, that constitute
hard nuts for the Japanese alarm
lists of this country to crack.
Mr.. Ashford, the head Of the ex-
lies American bureau of informa-
sion, says that the Japanese of this
are restless and ready to
make trouble, while Japanese Con-

They connect into one system
over two million miles of land

countries.
The cables have cost about
forty millions, and the land

but the money has been well

the world, which has now risen
to nearly 1000 millions sterl-

putes to be settled without re-

It brings war that has
broken out to a speedy con-
clusion, and keeps the public
informed of its hourly progress,
as in the case of Egypt, where
the bombardment of Alexan-
dria was known in the civilized
world few minutes after the
first shot was fired, and tele-
grams were dispatched from
the battle field of Suakim in
the Eastern Soudan while the
fight was going on. Above
all by putting the Yems0test part
OF the aVor1d in contact avith
