OUR CHINESE COMPENSATION

The United States Government dis
claims the idea of taking Chinese ter
ritory. How far the policy is sincere
and how far 1t is dictated by the needs
of a campaign in which the President
is on the defensive against the charge
of Imperialism, we cannot say. Gov
ernments, like women, reserve the right
to change their minds; and what they
may have denounced as criminal ag-
gression'' at one time becomes be
nevolent assimilation" at another.
1t must be remembered that the
United States is now a semi Oriental
power owing to its possession of the
Philippines. While a few years ago no
argument could have tempted the stay
at-home American people to plant their
flag on Chinese soil such a course
would now be in the line of rational
precaution. Whether willing or not the
United States is a factor in the Far
Eastern problem. 1t must keep a larg-
er fleet on the Oriental side of the Pa
cific than on the Occidental side and
this fleet would be at much disadvan-
tage in war RI it had to run back to
Manila every time it needed coal or re-
pairs. Dewey was in straits indeed
when the British ordered him to leave
Hongkong after the outbreak of the
trouble with Spain, for his nearest pos
sible base was Honolulu, 5000 miles
away. There was nothing to do but
attack Manila and he did so with for
tunate results. But our sea command
ers cannot always be expected to sup
ply the lack Of base in that summary
