Peace has been declared.

" Peace has been declared. The
diplomatic victory seems to be
with Russia, and the sagacity of
the. Russian government in send
ing the man who, next to Tolstoi,
is probably the greatest Slav liv-
ing, is certainly indicated. White
succeeded in doing what the pro-
Japanese press in this country
thought .impossible-and Russia
pays no indemnity. Japan. is
called magnaminous for giving up
the indemnity, but the cold fact
remains thai the Orientals wnated
indemnity and didn't get it. There
seems to be ''glory enough for
ALL" anyway, and the president
certainly deserves honor for the
part he took in bringing peace
about. There is more real glory
in that act of Theodore Roosevelt
than in the whole history of the
Rough Riders.

Two years ago a young German
officer who had published a novel
which was q revelation OF disgusting
social conditions In the life of army
officers, received . term In prison foz
his temerity in making the exposures.
Yet tho book created such a comma.
tion that measures for reform were be.
gun. To the great surprise. Of the
public, the Taggart divorce case on
trial at Cincinnati has brought out
conditions resembling those exposed
In Germany, and 1t IL evident that
tho president could ind abundant
employment for . oleaning-out COM
mission In tho army. AZ q matter Of
justice to the areat majority Of Uncle
Sans officers those who dishonor thei,
oountry's uniform should be expelled,
and no favoritism or pull should pre-
serve them.

The American people nave Japan

papers, one wonld think nothing wal
s,tce. done In any field OF human aetiv-
IL, that can compare with the won
drous works Of tho japanese. Every
nation has patriots, and can show a
sublime roll of martyrs to the cause Of
liberty. Instances of Japanese patriot.
ism are by the Japan'orasy press
transformed into the work of demi.
gods. It IL related that father muir.
dered his motherless children in order
that he might join the army. He IL
therefore q wonderful man In the eyes
of some American journals, whereas
the brute should have oeen executed
or condemned at least to life imprison-
ment. Another etory 10 of . woman

entered upon a life of shame In order
that her husband might not have to

Field Marshal Cyan IL reported as
saying that not one Of the Japanese
admirals or generals is Christian.
II they have any religion, it is the
ethics Of Buddhism or shintoism, but
1t more likely that, with many Of
the aristooracy Of Japan, they are
aanostics. The Japanese. it Is said,
are patriotic to the extreme of fanati.
cism. If that is true, It would seem
strange that they would easily give up
religious systems which are part Of
their history and tradition az a ma.
tion part of their innermost fibre.
There IL lot of nonsense talked about
the conversion Of the Japanese.

When q republican says ne is TO,
real: reciprocity he ie admitting g
change Of heart: The majority of the
leaders Of that party never WANTED
reciprocity. When the Mckinley Law
of 1890 was enacted Mckinley %:
jecred to reciprocity features. His
vision grew clearer when he became
president, but the trainers Of the
Dinghy bill only allowed treaties t.
be made which admitted reciprocal
relations In relation to few unim-
portant products. Now that It is ad-
mitted that there Is something wrong.
that the retaliating spirit of the high
tariff is causing retaliation on the
part of other nations, reciprocity has
become vital principle witt repub-
licans who no longer believe in the
high protective tariff, and courageous
thinkers like Governor Cummlns find
hearing. Many Of the arguments ad-
vanced are those of tariff reform
democrats. Reciprocity lie to be vel.
coined as an issue, for its advocacy
involves the acknowledgment of the
failure Of the high tariff. It is ster
onward toward more free trade rela.
lions. It will be unfortunate If it %.
scures the great issue of railroad
rates. but, outside Of that, 1t is q
question whether the makers of CHEAP
jewelry In Massachusetts, the vine.
yards men Of California. the fishermen
of Gloucester, and the big lumber con.
Germs, with all that they represent
will allow the republican party tt
enact any real legislation for recipro
city. That issue, involving the re-
pudiation of the standpat doctrine
and breaking the idols which the pro
tected manufacturers have made tn
country worship, will not be trans
formed into law without q tremendou
conflict.

W. Il. Williams, Commissioner Of
Labor, is proving himself to be one of
the really valuable members of the
state administration. He is fearless
and persistent. His special report on
child labor. Just issued. shows that he
fully realizes the possibilities for
good of his position. 1t appears that
there are many inconsistencies and
contradictions in the law. but the de.
partment of labor will In every case
construe, 80 far as 1t Dan, in the spirit
Of protection for the children. It IL
evident that revision Of the educa.
tional and labor laws in this particu.

J. F. Farrand, through his attor.
ney, E. A. King. appeared before
Judge Searle at St. Cloud Monday,
and occurred an injunction restraining
wo4k on Ditch No. 10 in the town, Of
Belle Prairie. The ditch runs into
Ditch No. 9, and was intended tc
drain a good deal of land. Mr.. Far.
rand has forty.acre tract affected by
the ditch, on which he was assessed
1925 In benefits. He claims injury In.
stead of benefits, claiming the land il
already drained, and therefore brings
the action, which ties things up till
after the September term Of court.

A general reciprocity plan entered
into by the leading nations would
simply mean the division of the graft
among the favored beneficiaries in all
the countries. and DO great benefi,
would come to those who are taxed
for the support of the lucky children
OF privilege. American beneficiariet
of high tariff object to reciprocity
because they don't want to divide the
craft with outsiders.
