AN INTERESTING CHAPTER

In the recently published book THE
Man Roosevelt by Francis f. Leupp,
the Washington correspondent of the
New York Post a book which is at
tracing attention by the reliability of
its detail there is Il chapter of especial
interest at this time The chapter con-
tains what purports to be the inside
history of the appointment Of the an
thracite commission. throwing new
light on the presidents caution and
disposition to be fair.
1t appears that he had been in COR
respondence with exPresident Cleve-
land who had earnestly favored a set
Element by arbitration on the plan sug-
gested and afterwards carried out
President Roosevelt was very desirous
that Mr. Cleveland should be a member
Of the commission. 1t appears, how
ever, that the coal operators objected
to the ex-president and when Roose-
welt urged him they peremptOrily re-
fused to accept him.
These facts were not previously gen.
orally known. but they are we'll vouched
for. 1t is curious circumstance that
the very conservative" influences
which have shown such antipathy
towards President Roosevelt and which
ut the same time are understood to be
SO strongly inclined to Mr.. Cleveland,
should be those who prevented the Sc
lection Of the latter as an arbitrator
in the matter in which the action Of the
former became obnoxious.

NAVAL APPROPRIATION NEEDED

The new naval appropriation bill
provides for "a total expenditure on new
ships. cruisers, ornaments, etc. of
$31.s26, $50.
This would place the United States
second in it's expenditure lor this pur-
pose. Foreign estimates of appropria-
tons for 19O4-05 are not yet accessible.
The expenditure for new construction,
according to "Brassey's Naval Annual"
by leading powers during the current
year is: England, SAT, 365. 900; Austria
Hungard, $2,95OOOO; France, SIS, 43O. 900
Germany. SIS, 200. 900, and Russia, $751;
265,O0O.
These include all the navies of the
world, whose new construction is worth
the Russian fleet the United States
stands today. in new efficient vessels

should be second. The English and
American fleets ought to be together
stronger than the combined fleets of all
other powers. While this is true the
worlds peace will be secured, and with

amount paid for our navy is a cheap

THE CASE IN A NUTSHELL:

a Japanese, Mr.. T. Takahashi. tenn
porarily In this country and a man Of
great ability. has put In q nutshell the
issue between Japan and Russia. To
the suggestion Of the New York Sun
that Japan has no duties and no rights
with reference to China which are not
shared by every one of the most fav-
sered nations" Mr.. Takahashi replies:
YES: as you say. we have neither
dutiaa nor rights with reference to
China which are not shared BY every
one Of the most favored nations. pro-
'vided no other country infringes upon
! Chinese soxereignty or occupisss it, ter
sitory. which has vital relation to
! Japan's interests. Japan's relation to
! China h exactly similar to that Of the
! United States to the Latin-American
! countries. Perhaps 1t Is far more seri-
! Gus, because an occupation Of a part
Of Mexico or one or two small islands
/ Of the West Indies by some European
powers may not cause any material ef-
feet upon this great country, while the
: occupation of Manchuria directly
threatens our natiopal integrity. 1t is
really a question of life and death to
) our country. If you think it is neces-
sary to maintain your Monroe doctrine
In behalf of your country. then you
will fully realize that 1t is worth while
to contend for the present policy of oul
government regarding the Manchuriar
+ question, even at any cost. Nine years
ago Russia protested. with the assist
ance Of Germany and France, thai

the right of victory, was a menace to
the peace of the far east. Now she con-
tends that her occupation of Manchuria
is for peace. Do you accept such logic?
"On the whole Japan simply wants
Russia to agree with her mutually to
maintain the integrity of the sover-
eighty of China and Korea. and to en-
force the open door policy in order to
promote the welfare of those countries,
and also in return for Japans recogni-
ton of Russias special interest in Man.
special interest in Korea That is ALL"
1t puts Japans case clearly and it
appeals powerfully to the American
point of view. review of the history
of the rela tons of the belligerent pow
ers vindicates the moderation and just
ice of Japan's claim Nor indeed have
the Russians ever, SO far as we are
aware undertaken to meet directly the
salient points of the case. Pursuing
an utterly inconsistent course they
have from the first sought to envelop
the whole matter in a diplomatic maze.
