A QUESTION or KoPECKs

The defiant declaration Of NJ witte sounds like a
plagiarism Of an American defiance long millions
for defense but one for tribute" The Russian
envoy puts the same sentiment in this form Russia
fight but money for tribute she will not pay-not
a kopeck" That beats the limit of the American de
hance Just onethird Of cent The value of kopeck
in American money is twothrds Of cent.
But Russia already has offered to pay billions Of
kopecks for the sake of peace The Russians claim that
their government expended than $2OO,OOO0OO in
Manchurian railways harbor improvements and general
development In the of settlement already agreed
upon the Russian ENJOYS surrender every kopeck they
have expended in Manchuria for permanent improve
ment.
Evidently the only great obstacle to a peaceful adj
justment is the money consideration M witte rightly
charaoterzes President Roosevets plan for avoiding
the indemnity issue "war tribute under another
name" The price of about $600,OOO,O00 for half Of
Sakhain island is equivalent to something like $1,000
per lot for building sites in the Mojave desert The
United States paid only SIS 100000 for the vast territory
known the Louisiana purchase, about the same for
California and the of the territory obtained from
Mexico, and $40, 900 for the Philippine archipelago,
including the savehoding and polygamous islands
where the sultan of Suu poses ruler.
Japan is in better condition today for renewal
of the than it when the first gun fired in
the Korean harbor. Russia still can put up fight
but it would be utterly hopeless The fighting spirit has
been whipped out of the Russian soldiers in Manchua
according to the admissions from St Petersburg
about mutinous mutterngs in the army continuance
Of the would surely the loss of vadvostok,
the only harbor that Russia controls the Pacific
coast 1t also would mean probably, either the
der annihilaton of Linevitch's army.
Russian dignity" is less important than Russian
safety. continuance of the would be likely to
internal outbreak Russia must have peace,
even If it does come high"

To Discourage ouaokery

1--WE hope that the institution will be
the means of discouraging all phases of
quackery and pretension.
"What we desire especially to empha-
size is that this institution is to be
characterized by the strictly scientific
character of the work to which it is to
be devoted. 1t is hoped that If such an
institution can be made successfully
operative it will become an authorita-
tive seat of learning along those lines.
"If any individual should set forth
a claim to certain uncommon facul-
ties of the mind that enabled him or
her to accomplish feats that are i'm
possible to ordinary persons, such a
person, whether a psychic or tricks
ster, would be invited to subject his
alleged powers to the investigation of
a corps of recognized competent scien-
lists, who would test such powers
under the severest and most scientific
methods.
"This would result in either exposing
the incapacity and pretense of the
claimant and thus discourage the pub
lie from squandering its money on
him or her, or it would proclaim to the
world that a genuine specimen of un-
usual psychic capacity had been dis
covered and thus would the age be en-
riched
