Chinese empire seems near at
hand, the practical seizure of
Manchuria by Russia being but
the beginning of the end. After
all, nations are but individuals.
Human progress cannot be stayed
and if an individual gets in its
way SO much the worse for the in
dividual. 1t is even so with ma
tions. China has been a stumb-
ling block in the path of civiliza-
ton, for 10, these many thousands
of years. Her barbarism is as
as in the early dawn
of history and who shall say that
her dismem berment will not only
prove boon to her own people
but to the world at large.
