Keen an Eye on Russia.

But let us examine closely for O mo- ment the supposed friendship of Russia for the United States. It isnot, 1t can not be, other than mere words. States do not differ that are never brought in contact, and where there is no contact there is no rivalry, and professions of friendship may do no harm and can do little good. But what is there between the United States and Russia in oom- mon that can make them allies?
 Russia aims at two things-to pre- vent an Anglo-American alliance, and to prevent the United States from ever acquiring any voice ill the direction of affairs in the far east. The policy of Russia was not matured in day. Rus sia did not withdraw from America un- til she had possession of the lower Amour, until she had awakened the fears of Japan, had taken possession of one of the islands and had driven her into the family of nations, where Japan hoped she might find allies among civ ilized states Russia intended that the Monroe doctrine should effectually estop the United States from having any voice in the settlement of any Asiatio question. She may say, "You can no more acquire by conquest the Philippine islands than Russia or France can acquire Cuba" "
 Russia withdrew from Alaska for two reasons-to exclude the United States from having any voice in respect to questions touching the eastern shore of Asia and to prevent Alaska in case any future conflict with the United Kingdom should arise from becoming a part of British America, and it was so understood at the time by every Japa- nese statesman. American Re view.
