RUSSIA AND JAPAN.

The situation in China would be
bad enough if there were no jeal-
ousies or disagreements among the
outside powers interested in pre-,
serving order in the Chinese ems
pire.
1t is striking evidence of the
recent progress in civilization made
by the Japanese that their empire
although oriental in race, religion
and customs, should at the present
time be admitted to full recognition
by the western powers and accord
ed a place among the powers right
fully interested in the future Of
China. l
Nevertheless the fact that Japan
has large army and a modern
navy nearer the scene of trouble
than any other power involves a
peril which must be considered as
vital part of the Chinese situation.
The jealousy and hostility of
Japan towards Russia is we'll found>
ed and permanent. 1t is based
upon a conflict of interests which
cannot be avoided under present
conditions. Russia needs an ice
free harbor on the Chinese coast
and enough territory to maintain
this port and the trans Siberian
railroad free from danger of attack.
To Japan the establishment of this
harbor is menace and also an
obstruction to what she regards as
Legitimate expansion on her own
part. Japan resembles England.
Her territory is an overpopulated
group of islands and her only ret
uge from the evils of a surplus
population is to be found in an in
creased territory and the establish
ment of colonies. The natural field
for her efforts is in Korea and
northern China and in this field she
finds Russia to be rival and a foe.
This feeling against Russia was
greatly increased and intensified at
the close of the war between Japan
and China, when Russia intervened
to deprive Japan of what she be-
lieved to be the legitimate fruits Of
her victory.
Since that time also Japan has
seen Russia gradually extending
her power and influence farther to
the south and even securing from
China tracts that had been refused
to Japan. In Korea, too, Russian
influence has been successful
against Japanese ambitions and the
recent acquisition OF the port of
Masampho is extremely provoca>
tive Of Japan's i'll will. ,6 8 81
In the recent Boxer outbreaks
Japan sees the evidence of Russian
intrigue, and is resolved that they
shall not be made an excuse for the
occupation Of definite areas Of
Chinese soil by Russian troops,
believing that such occupation
would be continued indefinitely
and would result in permanent
possession.
If China were to be divided,
Japan might be satisfied with Kc'
rea, leaving Russia free to take
Chilli, the province of Pekin, but if
Russia aims to secure Korea for
herself a conflict with Japan cannot
be avoided.-Colo. Springs Gazette.

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS.

The Salem Sentinel has this to say
of the prices of farm products under the
Cleveland administration and the
Mckinley:
Taking these four staples Ofagricul-
ture, it will be seen that three of the
four, oats, corn and cotton were higher
during the Cleveland administration
than during thatof Mckinley. Wheat
on.y was higher and that was due TO
the famine i'm India. and to our war
with Spain and the British war in
South Africa, which created unusual
demands for breadstufis. These are
the things the farmers have t. sell, but
how about what he has to buy? He
must pay more for lumber, nails, wire,
harness, hardware, stoves and all ag-
ricultural implements. More also for
sugar oil, clothing, shoes, furniture
dc. The farmers income has not in
creased, bat what he buys costs more,
and Republicans call this prosperity"
Is there farmer in Prince Edward
who Will vote for Mckinley?

"WHAT II MAN THAT THOU ART

Man is prOudest of all animals and

with pride and recognizes no superior.
But how all this is changed when ca
lamity comes and the hour Of defeat.
Imagine, If you can, the horrors Of
that night in Galveston, when granite
foundations were swept away like
heaps Of sand, and marble structures
were moved by the Storm King as
though they had been made of paper.

Il common grave, and faced common
despair, and then wonder who of all

hour, rayless and hopeless. Did one Of
the many boast Of his powers or Of his
possessions . We trow not. Then
why boast at all when one touch of

Is health then not desirable ? Nor
wealth? Yes, indeed; but for them
let Us be grateful rather than boastful. |
