Some Russian officials are talking conf

will be the business of their country during
the remainder of the campaign, they say.
1t may prolong the war by a year or two,
but the Russian flag must fly over the
town. 1t is fate.
This is foolish talk. hardly suited to the
immediate occasion. The Russians entered
upon this war with altogether too light an
appraisement of the Japanese. They have
failed at every turn to check the little men,
They have been driven far up country have
lost their .impregnable" fortress and their
entire Asiatie fleet. They have drawn Sc

For there was never a more shameless trick
than that which the government at st.
Petersburg played upon the mikado when

Senator Knox,

P. c. Knox was unanimously nominated
for United States senator by the repub-
lican members of the Pennsylvania legis-
lature last night The honor was most
worthily bestowed. Only a few years ago
Mr.. Knox was a practicing lawyer at the
Pittsburg bar without thought of polit-
ical career. He was reluctant to accept
Mr.. Mckinley's offer of a cabinet place,
and probably would have declined any
other portfolio but the one in the line of
his professional equipment. But no sooner
had he qualified for that Office than he
began manifesting a capacity for public
affairs, and when he left it after an in
cumbency of much activity he was ac-
claimed one of his partys safest leaders
That he will continue to grow in the public
estimation in his new field we may easily
believe. and that Pennsylvania will come
into increased influence and prominence in
the Senate is a certainty. The republicans
of the whole country are to be congratu-
lated.

Peace.

Does the fan of Port Arthur make for an
carly peace? The world at large hopes So
and many soldiers and diplomats are quoted
as Of that. opinion. Russia it is pointed
out is helpless on the water and is at a
disadvantage on land. Henceforth it is a
land struggle with the one power fighting
at a long distance from base, and the other
very close to base. Russia stands in Jeop-
ardy every hour on the score of supplies,

dark for Russia, and on this account specu-
lation naturally turns on what her views
may be as to prolonging the war.
The result of the struggle up to this time
has surprised nobody who had knowledge

travel or from reading. That Japan was

of the criticism of Russia af1oat has come
from Russian sources. There were writers

We're not fit, and that the men had had no

On land we have seen the nimble man
pitted in a rough and wild country against
a clumsy giant. The one scrambled to
heights and planted his guns while the
other was bucklng his belt and getting
ready. The giant called the other fellow
monkey, but soon discovered that the
monkey well posted in the field was too
much for him. Epithets are not as power
full in war as alertness and a good aim.
OF personal courage we have had fine ex-
hibitions on both sides. But they were TO

the world if courage were marvel among

Why Japan Wanted Port Arthur.

Here and there in the comments on the
capture of Port Arthur by Japan is heard
the note of dissent against the enterprise
on the score that il is not worth the cost
Statistics of the siege are massed against
the possible and probable military effect
of the victory. TO the end of showing that
Japan has unnecessarily weakened itself
in the taking of "A position which will
yield but slight advantages in the real
work of the campaign in northern Man
churis, where the war must now be fought
to a finish.
There are other views of this question
based strictly upon military grounds but
all such considerations may be swept
aside and a sufficient motive for the Japan
csc persistence in the attack upon Port Ar
thur found in the history of the past nine
years, wholly regardless of the circum-
stances of the siege and its results. japan.
in short, has been determined to capture
Port Arthur in order to obtain revenge
upon Russia for its action in 1895 in form
ing the Russo-GermanFrench coalition to
prevent the mikado's government from
taking the Liaotung peninsula as part of
the spoils OF the war with China
Often in warfare some slight circum
stance operates TO furnish compelling
motive for heroic but futile sacrifices and
foolhardy adventures. The history of con-
fiict is filed with such circumstances ner-
sonal enmities. trifiing feuds, love affairs,
petty questions of etiquette all serving To
spur on commanders and followers to the
most reckless deeds. II is never safe even
in these days of supposedly dominant COM
mon sense, TO overlook the element of re-
venge. The British doubtless sacrificed
much in their late war with the Beers in a
mistaken effort to administer an imme-
diately crushing defeat to their former
conquerors at Majuba Hill. Just how
much General Butler lost because or his
light boast that he would take Christmas
dinner in Pretoria may never be known.

The Inauguration Resolution.

r,,ro months now remain for the compile
lion of the preparations for the Inaugural
zion A task of magnitude and difficulty
despite the familiarity of the citizens of
Washington with the details. Congress will
a assemble tomorrow and will be confronted
with no more urgent item of business than
that which relates legislatively to the in
auguration, especially IN regard to the pub
lie building for holding the inaugural ball.
AS the case stood when the houses adjourn
ed for the holidays, the proposition to use
the Library had been abandoned by the
District committee, and that for the use of
the Capitol had been negatived by the
House by an overwhelming vote. There
remained only the original proposal of the
pending Senate resolution to use the pension
office, in accordance with the custom and
the simplest possible method of solving the
problem. But the House, owing at the last
to a failure to obtain unanimous consent
for consideration of the matter, adjourned
without passing the resolution.
1t is entirely plain that if public building
is not designated by Congress for the in
augural ball-reception there Will be no such
Inauguration as the people have every rea-
son 10 expect. There will be no elaborate
street decora tons. none of the costly ac-
compartments of the great ceremonial
The Inauguration will consist merely of the

as President OF the United States, elected
by the largest popular majority in the re-
public's records, is not to be thus belittled
and rendered unimpressive in contrast with
the Inaugural tons of his predecessors

Regeneration or Revolution.
m the Naw York Herald

From the New York Herald
Day by day the conviction gains strength
that grave trouble is brewing in Russia.
There seems, however, no reason to believe
that a revolutionary upheaval of the peo-
pie is imminent AS Macaulay pointed out,
tyranny may last through ages where dis
cussion Is suppressed, and whatever short
ccmings may be justifiably ascribed to the
bureaucrats who really govern Russia the
liberation of discussion either in public
meetings or in the press is certainly not
one of them. Nevertheless, a fatal mis-
take has been made in replying with a
rather harsh refusal to the demand for
much needed reforms made by the most in
teligent ard not least loyal class of the ma
ton. If hope deferred maketh the heart
sick, as the sad old proverb declares. hope
shattered makes the heart defiant and the
mood of the Russian people appears decid-
eddy defiant at the present moment.

The Contemplate Bullies of Europe.
From the New York SIM

From the New YORK Sun.
The peace of hemisphere is in the hands
of the Japanese. So far, they have won an
honorable and a magnificent victory, an
achievement which is or very soon will be-
epoch-making in its effect. When they took
Port Arthur some years ago from China,
occupied it and proceeded to enjoy the
fruits of their well won victory, 1t was
snatched from them by the civilized DULLES
of Europe. individuals can be inglorious
and contemplate, but nations can outdo
them; and if Russia is now bitterly expiat-
ing her share in the infamy that was then
visited upon Japan she is only reaping as
she has sown and as she richly deserves.
We need hardly observe that that chapter
in history will never be repeated, not even
if all the powers in Europe sought to par
ticipate in it.
