ONE EYE ON RUSSIA
LITTLE JAPAN TXPECTS A HUG
FROM THE EUROPEAN
BEAR
THINK CLASH IS INEVITABLE
Efforts of Government to Reassure
Popular Sentiment in Vain
Hope for AngIO-SaxOn
Assistance.

X Nosse and wife, of Toxic, Japan,
were at the Ryan few hours yester-
day, en- route for the East. Mr.. Nosse
is wei posted upon the political situation
of the country, and from his conversa-
ton yesterday it would appear that there
is a settled feeling against Russia
throughout the entire country of Japan.
There is no doubt at all, he says, that
Russia is jealous of the development of
Japan and her undisputed prestige in
the Oriental political field. The senti-
ment among the people of Japan is that
it is only a matter of time when there
will be a great struggle between their
country and Russia, although it may be
delayed for some years,
The japanese hope that when the fight
does come that the United States and
Great Britain will be ranged on their
side, as both have interests that would
suffer from Russian aggression; Englan-
in India and the United States in China.
This feeling the government is endeav-
oring to dispel, but it is deep-seated and
crops out at intervals in the press all
over the country. The natives seem to
be united in the sentiment and to feel
that regardless of the efforts of the gov
eminent to avert it, a struggle is sure to
come, and they feel that with England
and the United States friendly, and will
be able to more than hold their own
against the Russians, and they are de-
termined that the cars domain shall
not gain foothold in their country.

ALMOST OUT OF DEBT
LIBRARY BOARD HOPING FOR a
MORE COMMODIOUS HOME IN
NEAR FUTURE
SUBSTANTIAL AID PROMISED
PubIfc-Spirited Citizens Offer to Sub
scribe-FreseEt Property Will
Yield a Rich Harvest
When Sold.

There is a possibility that the members
of the st. Paul library board may ere
long see the realization of their fondest
hopes, magnificent new library build
ing for the SANITY City. NegOtia-
tions have progressed so far that with
the paying of the debt that now hangs
over the present building, the nucleus Of
a fund viii have been supplied that will
enable the laying of the corner stone Of
the new building at no distant date
When Andrew Carnegie startled the
world with his gifts of millions for the
erection and maintenance of educational
institutions in cities and towns all over
the United States, st. Paul was among
those who made bid for his generosity,
but the results were so discouraging that
further correspondence was dropped
Then the board was laboring under
heavy debt, and it was decided to pass
the matter up until all complications
could be cleaned away.
In two months the board will have
fully satisfied every claim standing
against it, and with it's disappearance
will come the preliminary steps toward
the realization of the cherished desire
for a new building. A full meeting Of
the board viii then be called, and to
each will be assigned part in bring
ing the scheme to a successful issue. Sew
eral philosophical citizens have prom
ised their aid, and that to an extent
that means a handsome endowment for
the new building and its future main
tenance. President Young and his col
leagues are positive that their hopes viii
be realized.
When the new building is constructed
it will not be on the ground now covered
by the present structure, but on a loca-
-tion more in keeping with its character.
The present building and ground has a
value that is yearly increasing, and
when the tine comes for its disposal viii
net the board a handsome figure The
corner is one Of the best business sites
in the city, and even now furnishes a
rental that goes far toward maintaining
the library.
The board is now considering PROPOSE
ton to permit the use of the lot to the
north of the building for the erection
of a business block
