THE FIGHTING QUALITIES OF
THE RUSSIANS AND THE JAPS
5Why2the Russians Suffer Defeat.

Why the Russians Suffer Defeat.
Tho fault with the Russians lies IN the
rottcnness OF the tactics employed, IN
tho incapacity, jinefllciency, the dccadence,
or whatever YOU care to call It, Of the
officers who command the men. UP TO
the present time they have not used the
ordinary Judgment nor the tactical skill
which would be shown by n tcn.year-o bic
tsctoolboy IN a battle Of snowbanllls. +. It Is
not tho lack of courage on the part OF
either the Russian officer or soldier. On
tho contrary, 1t is that quality exhibited
so often IN South Africa by the British
and which It pleased mo to call the AS
sinnity Of courage, which the Russians
are now suffering from.

Japan's Efficient Military System

The Japanese officer and soldier stand
for everything that Is b1t III military
tactics. The military experts Of tile ma
ton have eliminated all tho Stage play
from tile best military systems III the
civilized world, and have stripped these
systems down to the factors which make
for the atest efficiency in placing the
fighting man on the flrlng-linc, properly
equipped anu properly fed. There are no
frills; all the efforts, every rloveme f,t,
every thou g1lt. being directed to the most
certain and expeditions method of rem
dering the enemy hors5 de combat. The
manual Of arms comprises but three mo-
lions. TO the slirrnish drill much atten-
I tion Is paid. the mon being not only
trained III actual rnanoeuvcrs at all sea-
sons and III all kinds of country to meet
the different CONTINGENCIES which may
arise In actual warfare, but trained physi-
cally until they can sustain long-contin-
t,icd and Immense exertion without suffer-
ing. The soldiers-strlpped as we now
see then, by the thousands, bathing In the
mountain streams-pre sent flnely-mascied

whether With his officers or not, cleans
and oils his gun carefully every night.
His second care Is for himself, and. to-

drink nothing but boiled water, to battle
freely, ana to wash Ills clothes often.
