RUSSIA AND HP4N

War between Russia and Japan
seems i'm minent. According to
latest reports from the Orient
both nations have been making
vigorous prepar ations for several
years, and are now ready and
anxious for the combat to CON-
mence. AS hostilities will doubt
less begin on water, Japan will
by no means at first be unequally
matched, owing to the fact that
she has a fine, up-to.date fleet,
including five of the most power
full battleships atioat, and to the
fact also that Russia cannot
withdraw more than a portion Of
her European fleet to go so far
away from home as the China
Sea. The impracticability of
Russia transporting a large nun.
Der of land forces in a given time
will add to the seriousness of
that country's side of the com.
bat. But the outcome of it all
will be that which was long since
ordained: The success of battle
will not be to the weak, but to
the strong. ITO him who hath
much shall be given, and from
him who hath not shall be taken
even that which she hath," or
words to that effect.
America it is to be hoped will
remain neutral, as we have no
special interest, and certainly
not much sympathy, in this
struggle; but who can tell what
the toothed and dramatic ass of
the White house will do?

THE FUTURE OF THE
REPUBLIC.

THE FUTURE OF THE
REPUBLIC.
Hon. John III. Reagan is re-
ported to have predicted the
downfall of the Republic. Such
an evil foreboding, coming as it
does from one whose vast exper-
iencein public affairs and whose
performance of the duties Of
citizenship for a period of half a
century. entitle him to be deemed
q statesman, makes us pause to
get thu faAl meaning of his
There can be but two kinds
of republics, the confederation of
states and the centralized gov
eminent, which becomes nothing
in the end but a monarchy. The
United States is drifting too rap
idly into = monarchical form of
governments. It is not even now
governed by men. It is con-
trOlled by money. The power of
Vk10 AA0u&80x 1nVS1CSOo 10 PoA
mount to the power of the people.
The result will be dissolution
of the confederation of states or
q n0narchical form of govern
ment. -
Thus Judge Reagan timely
analyses the present problem
which he thinks has already un-
dermined theconstitutional foun-
dations of the republic.
Political @aarmists have often
been won't to foretell fearsome
results following a failure of
their measures and it
would be. folly to consider the
aged statesman's words if ut
tered by the mouth of some
zealot, but being as it is the de-
iberate expression of mature
thought, the citizens OF the re-
public should ponder over their
import.
That the tendencies of the time
as evidenced by the policy of the
RASSCAO eA4AO ~ OSCNAAf5 4AuOAOAAAA
administrations are to drift from
the ancient moorings, no one can
gainsay. In a few short years
the ideal republican form of
government on earth has been
SuasCulaUeu so recKIeSSIy, Jna5
at present colonial wars and
scandals follow. fast upon the
successful enforcement at the
capitol of an admins tration in
form very nearly approaching
that of limited monarchy.
Still, though it be wise to heed
the warning of Judge Reagan,
and to realize the true conditions,
we may we'll hope for a happy
solution of the impending crisis.
The very organization of the
republic was marked by the
initiative struggle between the
two forces which have continually
opposed each other in some man
ner, be their name Federalists
or Anti-Federalists, the party of
States Rights or it's opponent,
or be the forces exemplified by
the two political parties now
existing in the the nation.
At times the fate of the repub-
lie trem bled in the balance by
the contentious between them.
It is true, we now see entrenched
a most powerful array of wealth,
strongly organized but the vic
tories of the past justify the
hopes for the defeat of these
enemies of the Union in the fu-
ture.

LOST DIAMOND RING
MRS. S. J. LEFFORGE MISSES Elk.
PENSIVE PIECE OF JEWELRY.
Policeman Finds Where Fine Stone
Disappeared.

While Mrs. S. ]. Lefforge was washing
her hands yesterday morning in the toilet
room at the Frisco passenger station.
she laid down her diamond ring for a
moment and stepped out into the waiting
room When she returned the ring was
missing.
The matter was Immediately reported to
the agent, who In turn notified the police.
Robert Pryor, policeman. was detailed
to work on the case and two hours later
succeeded in finding the ring and turned
it over to NJ. H. Rudolph. local freight
and passenger agent for the company.
Mrs Lefforge, who gave up all hope of
ever finding her diamond, left the city
in the afternoon. at 80 o'clock, as she
had intended. for Pittsburg. Kan. The
ring will be sent to her.
When Mrs. Lefforee first stepped into
the toilet room. she eviden,.y never no.
ticed two small girls who were playing
about the room. One was about eight
years of age and the other ten. When
Mrs. Lefforge returned to the toilet room
after quieting her baby. who had called
her from the apartment by crying. she
didn't notice that the girls were missing
because she hadn't seen them.
There were persons waiting in the room
however. who did. The policeman was
told of the two girls who left the room
Immediately after Mrs. Lefforge did and
who saw them turn east into Douglas
avenue and run.
The excellent descriptions of the girls
furnished by those who saw them caused
Pryor to think he knew who they were
A call at the home Of the girls found
that they had left just a few minutes
before. In response TO questioning the
parents admitted that the children had
ring when they came home a few minutes
before, but had hid it and gone up the
street. The parents said they thought II
was of no value. When the children re-
turned the policeman induced them TO tell
where the ring was hid and thus it was
returned.
At the passenger station il was said
that Mrs Lefforge would be satisfied with
the return of the ring and that there
would be no prosecution. Mrs Lenorge
is the wife Of a travelling auditor for the
Western Railway Weighing association.
The diamond rings was valued at about
one hundred dollars.
