THE OUTLOOK IN ASIA.

Notwithstanding the less favorable
outlook for peace In eastern Asia, It Is
difficult to believe that war between
Russia and Japan is imminent. Japan

A DELICATE SUBJECT.

The subject of repression of the me-
ternal Instinct among the American
people Is being discussed by scientists.
philanthropists, statesmen and even
by some OF the clergy. President
Roosevelts structures on the runnins
out OF the old stock from which New
England civilization sprang. have
caused much comment, adverse AMI
favorable, and the term used in rela-
tIon to It, race suicide" has been
repeated until every reader OF current
literature is familiar with II.
No matter how the question Is treat
ed, from a moral, national or religious
standpoint, II cannot be truthfuly de-
MED that IN many parts OF this coun'
try, large families are looked upon as
something TO be avoided and the
means employed, no matter what they
may be, do not appear to be objection
able. In some fashionable circles to
have more that one or two children In
family is actually regarded as dis
graceful
There Is disposition to avoid
any discussion of this subject. and
when the growing custom OF suppress
sion of human increase IL denounced,
there are not wanting. even ministers
OF religion to rise In Its defense ana
revile those who speak against the
evil.
There are clergymen, however, who
are fearless and bold In showing w
the wrong and reproving those who
practice It. The Catholic priesthood
is one Of the foremost religious powers

Protestant ministers join In the at

TRAFFIC ARRkNGfMENTS OFF
Reported That the Milwaukee Union
Pacific Deal win Not go Into
Effect Jan. 4.

Concerning the traffic arrangement
that vas recently made at between
the Chicago. Milwaukee st. Paul
rail road and the Union Pacific the
following special was sent out from
Omaha:
Omaha, Neb., Dec. 2.-It is re-
ported at railroad Offices here that
the alliance between the st. Paul
and Union Pacific roads has fallen
through. The new train service
between Chicago and the coast was
to have taken effect January 4 1t
is now alleged that the advertising
has been withdrawn and that the
| deal is hung up, with a probability
| that it will fail.
The Northwestern has brought all
| pressure to prevent the alliance.
i President Hartman Of the Union
| Pacific has been opposed to It, and
seems finally TO have been able to do
as he was said to wish in the begin
ming.
If it is true that the alliance will
not hold. the story is that the st.
| Paul will set about next spring to
| build its own line to the Pacific
coast.
Commenting on the above the
Sioux City Tribune of the 30tb has
| the following to say:
The foregoing report from Omaha
if true has the largest significance.
Some of the most powerful interests
| in the railroad world have been des-
| perately fighting over this Mil
aaukee and St. Paul alliance. The
Vanderbiits were bitterly opposed,
but were supposed TO have been in
| f1uenced by threats that the Milwau-
kee would build its own line to the
coast unless given the contract.
There is no doubt that the successive
moves. such as increasing capital,
ETC., by the Milwaukee company,
bad a large effect.
Local officials of the Milwaukee
company. when shown the Omaha
dispatch. admitted that it was not
new to them. They had heard
enough to be satisfied that the deal
was tied up.
81 have heard this story for some
days said u Milwaukee man. Il
suppose it is true. The schedules
for the new service have been re-
ceiyed here. l understand, and no.
body has known why they were not
| released for the publication in the
/ roads advertising. OF course we all
believe it means the Milwaukee will
go to the coast as soon as possible
1t has been held out in some
quarters that when the Milwaukee
road went into this alliance that it
meant the abolition of the scheme to
extend the road across the reserva-
ton to the Black Hills. The state
ment was given publicity for the
reason that it was thought that it
would effect the capital proposition
from a Mitchell standpoint. at no
time, however, has it been felt here
that The Milwaukee had abandoned
its extension to the Hills and this
late phase of the situation will GER
tainly convince others that the road
viii now take up the building of the
line without fail. This extension
means much to Mitchell in a capital
way, for it assures a connection with
that part of the state that has here
tofore had no show of being in touch
with the eastern part Of the state.
Mitcheil's capital aspirations are
based on a foundation that will have
a strong weight with the people of
the state and the members of the
legislature when it comes to SUBMIT
ing the capital question.
