AS a rule. it may be taken as cor
rect statement of the case that the
grand jury goes thru it's business
in an entirely perfunctory manner, be-

of the county attorney. Under the cir
cumstances it does not appear quite
clear, why we should have this addl-

may be hailed as the first step toward

THE FIRST MOVE IN EVICTION.

Now that the Japanese flag has been
Arthur, certain European powers, not
ably France, are considering the means
to another eviction and it is declared
by the most active that the retention
Of Port Arthur by the Japanese is a
menace to all Europe. To this Japan
might reply with records Of modern
history supporting the assertion, that
occupation of Port Arthur by any
European power is constant men,
ace to Japan.
There is the territorial greed and
jealousy Of continental Europe in the
demand for Japanese expulsion. Eu-
rope naturally fears the ascendency Of
Japan over China and the east Pacific.
It views with alarm her growing mill
tary strength, and her swelling COM
mercial and manufacturing interests.
Japan. prisoned on the Island of Nip
pom, is a trade captive. With foot
hold on the mainland, Japanese thrift
system and energy foreshadow the con-
troll Of Asia by the brown men, who
have earned the right. Under Japanese
influence there will be no dismember-
ment Of China, but the cultivation Of
a solidarity that will rest upon Japan
as the keystone Of its arch. All this
may endanger certain European inter-
ests that Europe considers paramount
but 1t will be in line with the greater
world interests.
It is time for Europe to learn that
Its kingship of the world has fallen
and that its selfish interests are not
to dominate and delay the develop
ment of Asia, and this lesson is likely
to be exemplif1ed and illustrated when
the demand comes. If it ever does, for
Japan to loosen her grasp on Korea
and withdraw her garrison from the
key to the east coast. Japan once
won Port Arthur with the sword to
give it UP on demand of the powers.
millions in money and enough blood
to float navy. She will not perpe-
trate the same folly again. She is
there to stay as long as a shot is left
or yen remains unspent, and her
determination is one that outside of
European selfishness will be ap-
plauded and supported.
There is no menace, but hope in the
growth of the japanese nation. 1t is
the daybreak of the yellow races. If
Japan can reorganize China, Undue
her with modern thought, and teach
her modern methods, she should have
the opportunity without European in
terferance and Japan should hold Port
Arthur as the key that unlocks the
prejudice and ignorance and medieval
ism of China to modern development
and civilization.

THE SCARLET LETTER.
TDes Moines News.1

A young man entered "disorderly
house" in Des Moines few days ago.
Among the inmates he recognized q
young girl whom he had known In his
own town and who was schoolmate.
He had the girl arrested and sent back
to her home.
The newspaper account says the
young man was very much shocked"
No doubt. But
Strangely enough, the young man
was not shocked because he himself
was in such place! He did not have
himself arrested and sent home.
He posed as rescuer of the girl and
would, no doubt, have resented any
attempt to rescue him.
And yet, what right or privilege
could he claim as a frequenter Of a
house of ill fame that he would deny
to the girl as an inmate?
When shall we have done with our
execraJble double standard of morals?
When shall we begin to demand Of a
young man as much as we demand OF
a maiden? When shall we come to re-
gard a fallen man as we regard fallen
woman?

SPARE SOME THINGS


One of our correspondents says
there is wild deer in Dutch Creek
and hunters are trying every way to
kill it. 1t is a pity that this ever
lasting desire to kill Things cannot be
crushed. What pity one deer can
not be let alone. If deer were not
killed here this country would become
stocked with them after while.
There should be law against kill
ing prairie chickens. They are so
scarce that hunters would not lose
much and 1T would be a pleasure to
behold them. 1t is about the only
bird that will eat caterpillars.
Quails also should be protected so
that none should be killed. They
are beautiful, harmless birds and are
worth their weight in gold to The
farmers.
Even an eagle cannot live in this
country. Every once on while we
read of an eagle being shot that is
so many feet from tip to tip. There
is little beauty in dead bird. Shoot
ing an eagle is very much like firing
on the flag. They are both emblems
of our country. Spare some things.
