A Plea for Something Different in the
Small Home Enclosure,

Small Home Enclosure.
A small outdoor water garden is
just the thing to make ones place diff
ferent from the general run of COM
monplace gardens, says writer in
the Garden Magazine. Why not try
some hardy water lilies this year.
| have two pools in my garden, and
both are source of great pleasure
to my family and myself, as well as
the stranger in my gates. One is
planted with water lilies and the other
with lotus. In the former we have
flowers from early spring to late
autumn. The colors are white, yell
low and pink. The lotus blooms for
period of about two months, and /
have nothing in my garden to com
pare with its flowers in beauty.
If you are lazy gardener try water
lilies. They require no watering, when
everything else is drying up, and no
wedding at any time. They multiply
so fast with me that most of them
have to be dug up every spring, and
the increase sells at good prices. Do
not grow geraniums, cannas, coleus
and the like, when so many beautiful
plants can be grown so different from
yOur neighbOrS

THE EDITOR.

What is the relation of the Eewspa

Certainly the relation is IL vital Gne
In these days OF large circulation.
the press becomes a tremendous en-
ginry of civilization. And its greatest
power resides in its abi,:iy to unite
public sentiment into 4 moral fol ca
The editor. therefore, is a repre-.
sentative of the people. He is as
much their representative as if he
had been elected to the office of edi-
tor by the votes of the people.
Any conception of his Office less
than this is TOO low.
And yet
There are newspaper edit0rs-hap
PLY they are rare-who will tell YOU
(privately) that a newspaper has as
much right morally to champion the
cause Of some special and selfish in
terest for pay as lawyer has to
plead the cause of his client for a
fee.
The editor who makes such a claim
has no righteous conception of his
relation to his constituency
Newspapers are purveyOrs of news
for price. But they are infinitely
more than that. They are forces Of
civilization. And their power is not
of themselves. They get it from the
people. Without the people they
would have no power. Therefore they
owe a duty to the people.
The editor of a great modern news
paper is bound by every consideration
of duty to stand for the best interests
Of the people. He must print the
truth for their enlightenment He
must protect them from abuses and
usurpations of power He must make
his appeal to the best that is in the
people and be true to the best that
is in himself.
His is high calling-no less sa-
cred than that of the pulpit.
If for a bribe he betrays the public
that trusts him he is the meanest of
all traitors.
He is the peoples tribune. If he is
treacherous to the people. he makes
himself prostitute And he becomes
the mcst dangerous man in the COM
munity.

WHY JAPAN is SHY.

In the light of her unfortunate ex
periences at the close of her vic
torious war with China, it is not at all
surprising that Japan would be lit
tie shy in trusting Russia's peace pro-
posals and consenting to an armsitice
in Manchuria. When the Japanese
succeeded in bringing China to
terms, Russia, backed by certain Eu-
ropean powers, stepped in and claim
ed certain zones Of influence and
proceeded to rob the Island Empire of
the well-earned fruits of its hard
fought victory.
In this raid Russia was assisted by
France and Germany. 1t was a ruth
less and barbaric scheme of plumber
that had allowed two Oriental nations
to fight until both were near ex-
haustion before the big. strong by
standers stepped in and usurped the
issues of the war. Japan. with her
armies demoralized. her treasury al
most depleted and her national re-
sources at a low ebb. was unable to
make more than a feeble protest
against the outrageous deSpoilation
practiced by the European powers.
Japan had won the territoy of Man
ehuria and Port Arthur. but Russia
took the country under the plea of
"reconstmctive occupation" Russia
promised Japan and the world that
she would evacuate Manchuria and
give M Port Arthur. She continued
to hold Port Arthur under the subter-
fuge of a lease enforced from China,
and instead of evacuatins Manchuria
as promised she made plans for per-
Russia never dealt fairly with ia
pan aud the present war WAS project
ed as much as a measure of revenge
and retaliation as for conquest. Japan
had been tricked by falsehood; had
believed in the diplomatic promises
of Russia. and the hurt rankled
throughout the ten years of prepara-
tion for another war. Much of Japan's
wonderful series of victories on land
and sea are due to the burning hatred
of the men behind the guns for the
bearded minions of treacherous and
unscrupulous bureaucracy.
In the present peace negotiations
the Japanese statesmen Will see to
it that they are not tricked again
and will no doubt say to the other
powers, "hands Off"
The Japanese have won wonder
full and surprising victory over the
Russians against overwhelming odds,
