BRYAN GETTING LiQht.

Mr. Bryan is learning things in
Europe. A man often has to go away
from home to find out things he
would not learn at home.
Mr.. Bryan has been meeting in the
different European capitals the rep
resentatives of his own country in
the diplomatic and consular service.
and all of those men are Republicans.
In a speech at Berlin the Nebraskan
make a confession. He said he had
thought in 1895 If he were not elected
to the Presidency it would be difficult
10 find good men outside the Demo
cratic party to represent the United
States abroad, but he had found 50
many good Americans, and Republi-
cans, too, In the diplomatic and cor
sular positions that he would go hack
TO Amersca relieved of one of his
Il 5.
Since Mr.. Bryan has discovered
that there are good Americans who
do not subscribe to the Chicago
and the Kansas City platforms, and
since he has had 4 chance to invade
the hsunts of the money powd in
London, he is likely to return 10
on Wednesday, a changed man.
Now, If he could only manage to
get new light conce rning the Demo
Gratis whom he read out of the party
for having failed to support him in
1895 and 1900 every thing might be
fixed up for the national convention
of next year on a harmony basis. He
should stop over in New York and
the East for the purpose of discover
ing If there is not something about
the "reorganizers" to be commended

Japan and Russia.

London, Dec( mber 2S.-All infor-
nation from the situation in the
East continues of warlike complexion.
Japanese authorities have requested
newspapers to refrain from publish
ing news of the movement of troops.
This is interpreted into virtual CEN
sorship and is taken to pOrtend seri-
Gus hostile movements. The Chinese
Board of War has ordered the vice
roys to furnish reports of the num-
Der of foreign trained troops avail
able for service. Three viceroys TO
the central provinces have reported
90, coo troops in readiness. Editorials
in the Daily Mail and other London
papers express great concern over
the statement that United States
marines have been ordered TO Korea.

SMOOT MAY RESIGN.
Public Sentiment Aroused by In.
1 digndnt Women. is Being Felt.

Washington. December 2s.-Word
comes from Utah that Reed Smoot,
the Mormon United States Senator,
may resign his seat to avert the
threatened fight against the Mormon
church While no confirmation can
be had here of the report, the actions
of Senator SmOOt himself seem to
corroborate the rumOr. The Senator
fastened away from Washington
without making any formal reply to
the charges against him, although
requested to do so by the Senate
Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tions, and has shown so far no dis
position to submit his case to the
judicial determination of the COM
mittee- SmOOt's opponents in the
Senate are in constant communica-
ton with those who ale fighting Nor
monism in Utah The latest advices
they have received indicate that the
Senator, hot content with the trouble
others are making for him in the
United States Senate, has incurred
the anger of the men who selected
him for his present political position.
Whether this is true or not, the anti
Smoot senators believe the situation
is becoming more and more adverse
to Smoot, and that if he does not
vacate his seat voluntarily he will be
forced to do so by the great weight of
public sentiment aroused and urged
on by the indignant women of the
country.

SEEMS INEVITABLE!
War Between Japan and Rus
Sid.

The latest advices Indicate that
Japan and Russia will in all proba-
bility be engaged in war with each
other, before the middle of January.
Both nations are making strenuous
efforts to be ready. Both are buying
war vessels and supplies, and borrow
ing money, in and of other nations.
japan seems to be best prepared,
having the best way. and the largest
army available for immediate action.
She has chosen mid-winter, a. the
time for war. when Russia viii have
to send re-enfOrcements and supplies
over a single line of the Siberian
railway for 5000 miles, while Japan
has transports ready TO land 5000
men in COrea, at once, the distance
being short, her transports ready,
and her preparations almost perfect.
Her navy is superior to. that of Rus
' sia at the seat of war, and she will in
all probability attack the Russian
feet at Port Royal and VladivostoF,
the two Russian ports in the east
that have harbor rooms for a fleet.
Her navy is stronger than that of
Russia, in the east, and the morals
of her navy is superior to that of
Rufsia.
After a naval battle, Japan, if
victorious over Russia's fleet, will
doubtless overrun Corea, and beat
back the Russians into Manchuria.
1t is said that Japanese officers have
been drilling and disciplining 10000
Chinese troops, that will he oiiicered
by Japanese, and join the forces of
Japan. The immediate cause of
trouble between the two countries,
is the aggression of Russian troops
on Corea, and the violation OF treaty
agreements by Russia, in seizing and
refusing to occupy Manchuria, the
large northern Chinese province ly-
ing south and west of Corea.
Back of this, however, lies the fear
and hatred of Russia, for her hostii-
ty and aggrandizing spirit, which
threatens eventually to destroy
Japan.
When Japan and China engaged in
war. some ten OF fifteen years ago,
Japan was an easy victor, and seizec
sever al important Chinese ports, in
the settlement of the war, but Rug
sia. claiming to act for China, com
PEELED Japan TO evacuate all the
points she had seized, and Russia
occupied and fortified them, and has
since held them as a menace to
Japan
England, it is believed, will be an
ally of Japan, if war is declared. and
if she takes active part, the Russian
navy will certainly be doomed to de-
feated, and China viii be much more
likely to join Japan in war against
Russian aggression,
1t looks at present, as IL there
must be war, or back down by Ru.-
