Much as Aguinaldos admirers in the
United States may be panied by the oc-
currence, we are decidedly of the opin-
ion that the President has decided to
treat him like other members of the
same tribe who have surrendered or
been captured and then taken the oath
of allegiance. The capture of Aguinal-
do was an event of some importance,
because the manner of it was calculated
to impress the rebels with the hopeless
ness of contending with an army that
contained men like General Funston,
and also because Aguinaldo's elimina-
ton from the Philippine problem nat
urally would collapse the Filipino SYM
pathetic strike movement of the Boston
junta and its few but noisy adherents.
Now that he is prisoner, Aguinaldo
is personally no more important than
any other of his associates who have
quit bushwhacking and acknowledged
the sovereignty of the United States.
1t is neither necessary to distinguish
him by undue severity nor by effusive
and exceptional kindness. He is just a
common. ordinary prisoner. taken in re-
bellion against the State to which he
owes fealty. His treatment should be
exactly like that extended TO others of
his kind-no better no worse.

The Far Eastern Question.

According TO the current news from
Tokyo the Japanese Government is
satisfied with Russia's promise not 10
make any separate agreement with
China. and has notified its envoy at
Pelzin 10 cooperate with the Russian
Minister in connection with the efforts
of the Powers to reach common set
Element. Japan no doubt is glad of the
chance to avoid war at this moment, as
her finances are not in the best shape
possible In addition to that consld-
Grafton Japan gains notably in prestise
through the yielding of Russia 10
pressure which was more that OF Japan
than of any other nation. So the Mi
kado very likely is satisfied with the
record as it stands. though we fancy
that he will NOT. therefore, sell any of
his ships or guns.
Russia. as may be supposed, is not
altogether pleased with the turn events
have taken. Possibly the fact is worthy
of notice that the rebellion of Tuan and
Tung-fu Sian happened Simultaneously
with the refusal of China to sign the
Manchurian note. That is a trifie omi-
nous. but not more so than reports
from Russia which state that one hun
dred and eighty thousand Russian
troops are now massed in Turkestan,
and that re-enforcements are steadily
going there in small detachments to
avoid talk. What purpose is this large
army TO serve in Turkestan, If it be
not intended for an attack upon Herat
and the frontier of British India?
That is rather startling proposition,
but by no means an impossible one.
For half century or more the steady
and resistless advance of Russ
through Central Asia has been looked
upon by the world as preparatory to
an attempt to seize India. Now Rus
sian army is at the gates of Herat, and
liable under certain conditions to knock
for admission.
An interesting situation would be
created were the Chinese rebellion to
become general That would impose
fresh responsibilities upon England.

In century. The game which is going
on is hard to follow-so much of it is
being played with loose sleeves and
under the table. But it is possible to
witness enough of it to imbibe a strong
impression that it is full of danger to
the players and to the whole civilized
world.
