PLATFORMS AND CANDIDATES.
Kansas city star.

one peculiar feature of the Amerl-
can political system is that the declara-
ton OF party principles Is made by a
body that has nothing to do with car
rying them out, In Great Britain the
speeches or public letters OF the party
leaders in parliament furnish the plat
form Since these men have the respon-
sibilty for all legislation they are ex-
peoted TO enact their announced pro-
gram into law, Their declarations Of
policy are therefore OF the greatest i'm
portance. But the responsibility of the
American convention ends with its ad-
journment. 1t commits It's platforms to
the tender merces OF Congress which
does not feel bound by the provisions;
witness. for instance, the refusal of the
Senate to ratlfy reciprocity Treaties.

boy had all the attention she desired
him to have. He WAS not compelled
to fast. nor did he fast during his i'll
ness. She admitted she was under the
rules of Shiloh while there. This clos
ed the evidence for the defence.
The State in rcbuttal put on only
one witness, the clerk Of the grand
jury. VINO testified that Elder Holland,
before the grand jury said that if n
person wanted a physician or n.cdi-
cine he must leave the hilltop. mean

CHANCE IS SLIM.
Believed That the War Cannot Posi-
bly, Be Averted.

Paris, Feb. 5.-Foreign Minister Del
casse presented a review of the Far
Eastern situation at a meeting of the
cabinet. this morning, but the foreign
office says he was unable to acquaint
his colleagues with the full contents
Of the Russian reply, because it had
not been received here. Until war
actually begins the French authorities
say they will take the view that a
peaceful settlement is possible, but
they admit the chance is slim, despite
the concessions which Russia is ex-
pected to have made.
At the Russian embassy it was said
that Oh Sunday or later there will be
news, but there was nothing to justly
the pessimistic reports which have
been current for the last few days.
An interview published here with
Baron Hayashi, the Japanese minister
to Great Britain has attracted marked
attention in the highest government
quarters, particularly his declarations
that unless Russia signs a treaty car
rying out Japan's demands, war will
result and also his statement that
Japan will object to any intervention
from Great Britain tending towards
inducing the acceptance Of Russia's
reply.
One CT the officials in touch with
Foreign Minister Delcasse said that if
this interview was genuine, as it SEEM
ed to be, it was of the highest moment,
as being an indication of the warlike
attitude Of the Japanese government.
Baron Hayashi, besides reiterating
his former liShn c%o
Japan will insist on a signal treaty
recognizing China's rights in Manchu-
ria, is quoted as adding:
IF Russia refuses this treaty we
will fight
is your government unalterably de-
termined on this course?" the minister
was asked
Absolutely he is said to have re-
piled. I'VE will not take promises.
Too many promises have been broken
and now we insist upon signed
treaty.
The interviewer then asked:
suppose Russia's answer is concili-
atory and reasonable, but refuses to 20
to the extent of signing the treaty you
desire. will your government then have
recourse to arms?"
'That is precisely what I mean," re-
piled the minister.
IF the government Of His Majesty
King Edward VII asks Japan not to
make war;" continued the interviewer,
and requests her to accept Russia's
reply, what will Japan do?"
We shall greatly object to such In
tervention coming from the King. We
desire to be left alone in our duel with
Russia. We do not want support or
