BERLIN. June i4.-''The United
States. and not Russia. is the real ene-
my OF Japan" said Prof Tomizu, the
famous japanese economist, In an arti-
Gle published in todays Post.
The article was originally written In
a Tokyo paper and claims to express
the opinion OF the most cultured set
in the capital Of the Mikado.
Prof. Tonizu in the article points 70
the enormous production of all kinda
&c manufactures in America which
makes 1t necessar.- for that country
to seek new mar'eets in all parts of
the world. but especially in the Orient
He warns his countrymen to prepare
for the gigantic struggle with America
over the supremacy in the Pacific which
he says is inevitable.
The struggle may break out at almost
any moment, ne says, but will surely
begin as soon as the Panama canal shall
have been finished. When that great
undertaking shall have been completed
ne saws a conflict between the youngest
two world powers. Japan and America
must come, struggle OF such enormous
proportions that the present war with
Russia viii seem as mere child's play
IN comparison.
Japan should, therefore. It is reasoned,
not impose too heavy peace conditions
upon Russia. but rather endeavor to
win the Cars friendship with view
OF a future Russo-Japanese alliance

And landed on the shore OF life.
A citizen to be.
He did not bring a single cent
No baggage has revealed;
Upon what scenes he turned his back
His lips are ever sealed.
He may be homesick. who can tell?
The tears are in his eyes;
No doubt he finds this foreign shore
A land of strange surprise.
All, foolish little immigrant,
What tales were told to your

And gold on bushes grew?
Good luck to you while you are here,
For short the time you roam;
You cannot take dollar back,
When you go sailing home.

The SearChliqht Battle.

ness 1t may not be good form TIC
say there would have been the Dick

the bounds of truth to allege that
the inhabitants of Washington would
have been bombarded until a large
sleep indemnity had been collected by
the attacking fleet.
Glory be- our brave defenders dis
covered the insidious advance of the
enemy and quickly sank him with
the rapid fire Of their powerful
searchlights
On the whole, the battle seems to
have been one of searchlights, a
deadly contest between the ultra
violet of the ships and the x-rays of
the forts. Every time a ship could
come within striking distance with

ever the forts could concentrate their
powerful x-rays upon a long. low.

that ship blew the brave but un-
fortunate jackies in a parabolic curve
to Dayy Jones locker.
The slaughter was something
dreadful. Countless grass widows
were made on the verandas of the
summer-resorts between here and
Norfolk and many a brave man lost
all but honor in the fierce encounter.
The battle ragged from Razor Beach
to Mint-Julep Shoals and was fought
most terribly in full view of the
after-dinner loungers at the beaches.
1t was the last expression of scien-
tific warfare, and while there were
some concessions to the vulgar in the
way of gun play and the like, the real
strategy was in the operation of the
searchlights and the tell-tale of push.
button mines.
Our duty to the public demands
omniscient wisdom in matters Of
strategy and warfare as well as in
the more humdrum affairs of world
politics and theology, but we are
forced to confess that we are at q.
loss fully to understand the import
OF some of the press dispatches of
this glorious encounter. Why, for in

converted gunboat Hornet?'' To our

OF course, without reference to "any

have made impossible the execution OF
the project until now and in view
Of the fact that the Kaiser is fond OF
fairy tales anyway, the German i'm
perial government has decided to
fortify Kiauchou bay in the southern
part of the Shantung peninsula.
Everybody knows that, this port
was leased" by Germany for two
sentimental purposes-for the main
tenance of a naval station as a ma
tional toy and the Precipitation of
Japan as a neighbor. If Port Arthur
was only about 200 miles away as
the crow flies, and China fioundered
all around the Tease like a jelly
fish, why. that was so much the bet
ter But the people of Germany had
to be amused and Japan-especial
as the victor in her war with China
made to feel at home.
And now, at last, Germany has the
funds to fortify this naval base. -
There is no use in having a monkey
on a stick if it won't work up and

Arthur and a German Yellow Sea
squadron, and German outpost of
civilization.
And everybody will live happily
ever after. That is the only ending to
such fairy tales as this.
