Sick

When your head aches, there
is a storm in the nervous sys-
TEN, centering in the brain.
This irritation produces pain
in the head, and the turbulent
nerve current sent to the stom-

This is sick headache, and
is dangerous, as frequent and

brain, resulting in loss of

The Heaten soldier.

To THE EDIToR or The SUN Sir: From
the general tenor Of the Official and press
news concerning the movements OF the Rus
sian army since Saturday, II would appear
that Gen. Iinevitch is getting his army into
shape again. This must be no easy matter.
II the descriptions Even OF its condition and
the circumstances OF the retreat from Mukden
are TO be credited.
A short time ago a German military writer
who was with Kuropatkin at Laoyane stated
in the udrVocheHbidu that whenever the
truth was made known as 20 with how small a
force he fought a greatly superior japanese
army and covered bis retreat, the world
would be amazed At the failure Of the Jspa-
nese 10 accom- plish his complete destruction.
With regard 70 the real causes OF Ruropatkins
defeat in the present case, the causes assigned
for II are innumerable, but the main one APP
pears TO have been deficient or erroneous
information as to the japanese numbers and
movements. that occasioned confusion in
every direction. Thus Telling appears TO
have been precipitstely abandoned. neoes-
stating the evacuation OF Ksiyuan. twenty
miles further north, on Saturday.
The Japanese paper Asahi, probably on
good authority. states what I ventured to
hint at the other day, that the Russian army
IL now concentrating at Kunchuling. below
the junction Of the railway to Kirin. with the
intention Of presenting a new front TO the
Japanese advance From Gen, Linievitchs
despatch in this mornings SUN he seems
70 be keeping a close watch on the japanese
movements up the Sinmintun road on his
r ght flank n the railway junction for Kirin
at KuanRchengtsi, as he speaks Of their cav
airy having occupied Fakumen, west OF Tie
ling, and appearing a. Kaotatse. further north
and 10 the west OF Kaiyuan. The situation
again becomes interesting. a. with the re-
endorsements sent 10 him from Hardin he
may be able 10 fight a delaying action and
gain time for the arrival OF the fresh troops
now on their way from Russia.
To the japanese II is OF the utmost i'm
poTtance to be established on the Sungari
before the navigation opens. about the end
OF next month or beginning OF May, when
the country roads viii be mere mud tracks.
For this reason they will probably nrst make
for Kirin toward which there 10 reason 20
believe Gen. KAwAmura is marching through
the mountains east OF the railway and the
Imperial Highway.
As 70 Admiral Roiestvensky's squadron,
a correspondent In Holland informs me that
the Dutch Government has given instruc-
tons 70 It's authorities IN the Dutch East In
dies TO observe the strctest neutrality to-
ward the ships Of both bellgerents in their
territorial waters, even 10 the extent Of using
force should either side violate or attempt TO
evade the laws Of neutrality. The Dutch
Government 10 said 10 be particularly nervous
over the general situation. having in mind

colony finally and Java temporarily during

alton with the island monarchy would
not bS necessarily fatal 10 projects OF
further continental conquest. Nobody
knows better than the Mlkado's coun-
sellors that, owing 10 lis comparatively
limited financial resources, their coun-
try can never hope TO have a navy able
10 face a hostile combination OF the
great maritime Powers. II was by such
a combination that they were forced to
surrender the Liaotung peninsula, and
had not the alliance with Great Britain
rendered a second combination Of the
kind impractioable at the present time
they never would have ventured TO con-
front the Russians in Manchuria. II is,
and is likely TO remain for generations,
a cardinal maxim OF Toxic statecraft to
avoid with the utmost wariness acts cal
culated to provoke the formation Of an
inimical coalition on the part Of European
and American navies. Such a coalition
would be inevitable and spontaneous II
Japan, by threatening the Philippines,
should cause Great Britain to apprehend
the loss Of Wei Hai-Wei and Hong Kong,
Germany 10 fear the seizure Of Kiao-
chau, and France to tremble for Indo-
China. In the eyes Of intelligent Japa-
nese the Asiatio possessions Of the great
naval Powers, and especially those OF
the United States and Great Britain,
are and must long be taboo Only Rus
STA is vulnerable; and that even Russia
would cease to be if she could manage
to create a colossal and efficient navy.
Japan being an island empire, cir
cumspection is imposed upon her by
the law Of self-preseTvation. She must
conciliate in order to survive. With
out some outlets for expansion under
propitious conditions of climate and
soil her distended population would soon
be stifed in its contracted home. To
secure and keep open such outlets I'M
broken control of the Strait Of Corea
must be maintained for many genera
tions.
A century or two hence, when posi-
bly, a greater Japan shall have arisen
on the Asiatic continent, as a greater
England has arisen in the Western Hem
isphere, and when perhaps a japanese
shall have succeeded the Manchu dy-
nasty at Pekin, Europeans may be
quietly shouldered out Of such Asiatio
coigns Of vantage as can be reached by
land. The fate which has befallen the
Russians in Manchuria may one day
overtake the French in Indo-China and
the Germans at Kiaochau. Even then
Hong Kong will be safe and the Philip
pines defensible, for never will the sea
power Of Japan be able to cope with
the united navies Of the English speak
ing race.

Something like a sensation has been
caused by the assertion, zealously cir
culated by pro-Russian newspapers and
attributed TO Mr.. HULL, lately chairman
Of the House Committee on Military
Affairs. that the motto Of the Japanese is
Asia for the Asiatics, and that when
they have completed the exclusion of Rus
STA from Manchuria they will take meas
ures TO e1pel the United States from the
Philippines. 1t will not be possible to
divert our sympathies from Japan TO
Russia by such a bugaboo. The Toxic
Government has done nothing since the
overthrow of the Shogunate that war
rants us in thinking it capable Of such an
act Of folly. The project imputed to it,
however, would be worse than foolish;
1t would be suicidal.
II lie true that there are two superficial
reasons, one clinical, the other geo
graphical, for supposing that the Japa-
nese might under certain circumstances,
such, for instance, as a voluntary cession
on our part, like to annex the Philip
pines. The Tsgals, the Visayas, the
Moros, and in fact all the inhabitants
Of the Philippine archipelago except
the Negrito aborigines, are Of Malay
stock, and there is undoubtedly a Ma
layan element in the composite popula-
ton Of Japan, although this is preponder-
antly Mongol OF the successive in
vasions by which the hairy autochthones
Of the Japanese insular group were eK-
terminated, or absorbed, or expelled to
the northern island Of Yezo, most came
from Corea; but one at least came from
the south, and seems TO have been an
outflow Of the prehistoric, transmarine
expansion Of the Malay race. It is also
true that the Philippines constitute an
important link in the insular chain which
Rirdles the Asiatic mainland, from Sag

The Fatal Surplus.

The Washington correspondent OF the
Chicago Tribune refers, not unsympa-
thetically, to the Indiana embarrassment
Of political riches;
There is . strong suspicion here that Indiana
may have two Presidential candidates within the
neat two or three years. Senator BHvEBID0E always
has laughed a. the idea, but there has been some
suspicious activity among his friends since the
election, and some OF them say he will be In the
Geld when the primaries are held In Indiana, and
will contest with FAIRBANKS for control Of the State
delegation. BY that time Senator BEvERIDdI will
be In his forty-si1th year
In his forty-sixth year! Old Time will
still be flying; but it is hard TO think of the
Hon. ALBERT JEREMIAH BEvERIDGE, so
active, eager, eIuberant, bounding for
ward in immortal youth, as reaching
even the tempered venerability Of forty
FIVE. Mr.. FAIRBANKS il less than ten
years and five months older, and should
be in his flower in 1908.
The correspondent holds the theory,
however, that "the precedent set by
ROOSEVELT necessarily will be favorable
to BEvERIDdE." Besides, Mr. BEvER-
IDdE is in the Senate, speaking and doing,
whereas Mr.. FAIRBANKS has to be con-
tent with silent and ststuesque dignity;
and the younger mans gifts of good
oratory and good sense are likely to keep
him in the public eye"
It Is the curse Of Indiana that she is
prolific in genius Of all sorts. Her poets,
her novelists, her statesmen are many.
There Is no central sun for all those
planets. So it may be that these dark
VACCINATIONS will be fulfilled and the
Skyscraper statesman and the Grand
Young Man will neutralize each other.
Mr.. BRvERIDGR cannot be beaten save
by the impenetrability Of space; and we
dare say he'll make that mighty uncom-
Portable before he gets through withit
