WAR NOTES.

Japan is considering the propriety of

salt to create war revenue. War taxes
will likewise 90 on about all the neces-
sites of life.
A Japanese woman escaped from
Dalny as an ordinary refugee this week d,
bearing charts and maps and estimates

much value to the enemy. She was
decorated for her herois m.
Thirty Russian students, several of
them women, have got into trouble at
Berlin for protest against the govern
ment permitting Russian police agents
to watch Russian residents in Germany.
That cOuntry's feeling is shown by an
order to get out in eight days.
1t is reported that both Russia and
Japan lost a war vessel in an engage.
ment of Port Arthur, Saturday. A SUBJ
sequent bombardment of Port Arthur
at long range of Port Arthur at long
range occurred without damaged, ex-
cept to the assailants in loss of ammuni-
ton, which resulted in the conversion
OF 100000 worth into smoke in the
space OF an hour. Some of the shells
fired were from a distance a distance of
seven miles. The Russians think that
the Japanese will be unable to take
Port Arthur, by their present tactics at
least.
Japanese women have been an active
agent SO for far in starting the tide
against Russia. 1t seems that they have
been remarkably successful in plying
their vocation as spies, and that the
Czar himself and the Viceroy have been
overcome by these Delilahs. Lately a
sub-otiicer was robbed of complete map

PLUTocRAcY AND THE PEOPLE.

utcd Broadcast During the Past Week

The attitude OF 80 many of the
plutocrats is in so many ways immoral
that an anti-capitalistic feeling has
been aroused which is a real danger.
Why, briefly, the incapacity and un-
willingness OF the very rich TO consider
any mortal or spiritual thing except
their own objects at any given mo-
ment. Thereby they have convinced
the majority OF their countrymen that
they are essentially not a law.abiding
class. l do not say they are thought
to be altogether lawless because they
spend time and money to ascertain
the limits within which they may 60,
but they are thought 10 be restrained
in the pursuit OF an object only by
the fear OF external consequences and
not by any innate sense of right or of
what is due to other people. This is
to be immoral, and the negative mani.
tests itself in many ways. Most boards
OF directors OF companies which oper-
ate public franchises, for instance,
have developed q corporate conscience
the late Norvin Green, / believe, in.
vented the expression-which enables
the members of q board collectively to
do things or to permit things of which
they would individually be ashamed
and afraid.
Those of us who have ever been
behind the scenes in Wall street know
that the unvarnished comments OF the
leaders upon each other abundantly
justify my statement of the basis and
scope of the general opinion. No
demagogue has ever said worse things
about Wall street dignitories than
they say about each other, although l
have noticed one remarkable excep.
ton. / have never heard the word of
Mr.. J. P. Morgan questioned popular
he is not, but his word is sacred. But
in listening to these comments and in
reading such histories as are now being
published in the magazines of the con-
struction OF the Standard Oil and the
Amalgamated Copper Companies
which have permeated far deeper and
wider than the people at No. 26 Broad
way seem to imagine-and in reading
the newspaper accounts of the testi-
mony in the Ship. Building Company
case, one perceives clearly the origin
of the anti-cspitslistic feeling to which
/ have alluded. In the light OF these
disclosures some of our most solvent
characters appear in the Palace of
Truth to be after all only uncon-
victed felons, and we know that in
France, England and Germany law.
yers and business men are to day suf-
fering social ostracism, professio al
disgrace and in some cases penal servi.

are here being exhibited.
