JAPAN'S ADVANTAGE

In war between Russia and japan
the odds would not be so strongly on
Russia's side as the world may sup
pose. A war on the Manchurian is
sue would be conducted in and near
that province, and that would give
Japan an advantage, at least at the
start. Japan could put more vessels
in that quarter than Russia can fur
nish. Japan could throw more soldiers
into Korea and Manchuria than Rus
STA could bring with its present i'm
perfect railroad facilities. That rail-
road across Asia to Manchuria would
undoubtedly be quickly cut by Japan
in case of war. Russia would have
an immeasurably longer line of COM
munication to guard than England
had in the Bocr struggle and would
have more powerful and alert
enemy than that with which England
had to deal ManiGestly, If war Is to
come over the Manchurian question,
1t would be better for Japan to have
1t fought now than to have it delayed
until, half dozen or dozen years
hence, Russia'S line of communication
is enlarged and strengthened. At
the present moment Japan could put
more lighting men into the field in
the disturbed district than Russia
could, and as the japanese have shown
themselves, in the Chinese war of 1894
and In the Peking campaign of 1900,
to be as good soldiers as any In the

world, Russia would find its hands
full in 1908. Moreover, war on the
Manchurian issue would undoubtedly
put England on Japan's side, and that
would give the little Pacific nation
very good chance to come out ahead.
All this makes the stories of war
preparations i'm Japan highly credible.

Two churches in flames The FIRE seems to gain
on the right The earth was without form and
void. Darkness covered the face of the earth.
Alcide Jolivet had simply a ferocious
desire to strange the honorable re-
porter of The Daily Telegraph.
Ee once more called upon the en-
ployee, who again coolly answered:
1T is his right, sir; it is his right.
Ten copecks a word
And he telegraphed the following
news, handed him by Blount:
Russian refugees escape the city. And God said,
LET there be light, and there was light"
Alcide Jolivet was literally transport
ed with rage.
Meanwhile Harry Blount was again
at the outside window, but this time,
absentminded probably on account of
the spectacle he saw, he made his OBJ
servations too long. So when the op-
orator had finished sending the third
verse Of the Bible Alcide Jolivet quiet
ly took his place at the wicket and, as
his colleague had done, placed a re-
spectacle pile of rubles on the desk
and handed his dispatch, which the en-
ployee read aloud:
Madeleine Jolivet, 10 Faubourg Montmartre, Paris
Kalyvan, Government of Omsk, Aug. 6-Run-
Always fly from the city. Russians beaten. Furi-
Gus pursuit by the Tartars.
And when Harry Blount came back
he heard Alcide Jolivet completing his
telegram, singing musingly with mock
cry:
'There was a little man all dressed in gray, in
Paris
Alcide Jolivet thought it better not to
mix sacred things with profane as his
colleague had done, and he answered
! by a joyful chorus of Beranger to the
| verses Of the Bible.
At that moment a commotion shook
| the telegraph office. A shell had en-
tered the wall, and cloud of dust fill
| ed the waiting room.
| Alcide Jolivet was just finishing his
verse, 'as red as an apple, who, with
out a penny" but without stopping
! threw himself on the shell, took it in
his hands before it exploded, threw it
out of the window and came back to
the wicket. 1t was all done in an in
slant.
| In five seconds the shell burst out.

Then, continuing his telegram with
perfect GOODNESS, Alcide Jolivet wrote:
| shell Of sixty pounds weight has burst
through the wall of the telegraph Office. Expect
some others Of same caliber.

The report that the Northern Pacific
has an option upon the new Lyle-Gol-
den Gale (wash,l road is Of especial
interest. The road is built in the ter
ritory claimed by the Northern Pacific,
being on the north side of the Column
bia, opposite The Da2les, and running
from Lyle in northeasterly direction
to Goldendale. Should the Northern
Pacific become the owner of this line
Of railroad it win arouse more than
ordinary interest. That the line will
be completed to the Northern Pacific
main line at or near Ellensburgh,
should the trade be made is proba-
bility. Whether or not it will be ex-
tended to Portland and the mouth OF
the river, via the Columbia route, in
that event is a matter Of conjecture.
but it would seem to be course likely
to be pursued by that corporation. un-
less Jim Hills interests should be in
imical to this portion of Oregon.

repeated to emphasize the Importance
