AN lsIAr1o MoNROE DOCTRINE,

There is in some quarters belief that
Japan contemplates declaring an Asiatic
policy similar to the American Monroe
doctrine. 1t is pointed out that just before
the war there was organized in Japan
league whose motto is Asia for the
Asiatics," and the membership of which
embraces natives of every eastern Ash
attic race from the Indian ocean to the
Sea of Japan. 1t is further noted that
there has been widely expressed ap-
proval of the declared purpose of this
league in all the oriental countries, show
tories has been to arouse throughout that
portion of the world a very strong feel
ing favorable TO a policy that would as
far as possible exclude western nations
from Asia.
That there should exist among the
eastern peoples a sentiment of this kind
is by no means surprising. There has
been a very great awakening in the Ash
attic countries respecting their power and
possibilities and it is altogether natural
that some of their statesmen and people
should feel that the time is at hand for
an assertion Of their independence Of the
western world. But there is no evidence
that the ruling influences in Japan are in
sympathy with this feeling or are at all
likely to countenance IT. The japanese
government has shown at all times the
most friendly disposition toward west.
ern nations and an earnest desire to cul-
pected that Japan, as the foremost
among eastern powers, will exert her in,
fiuence to prevent aggressions on the
part of western nations In that quarter
Of the world. 1t will not be at all sur,
prising II she shall assume toward those
countries the character OF a protector
and insist upon the preservation of theiI
territorial integrity. 1t is manifestly in
her interest to do this and TO also pro
mote their material development. Her
own security as well as her power will
be strengthened thereby.
1t is not at all probable, however that
Japan will interpose any obstacle TO com
mercial relations between the AsiatiC
countries and the rest of the world oI
will encourage any hostility on the part
Of those countries toward western ma
tions. She could not AFFORD to take such
a course, since IL would result in alienat
ing friendships that are OF vital import
ance to her. Obviously any policy thai

A comparison of taxes in Sarpy county
and Douglas county is somewhat mis-
leading. Sarpy county never voted a
dollar In bonds to railroads, but enjoys
all the benefits Of the large railroad debt
Douglas county has assumed. Douglas
county, moreover, expends more than
100000 a year for its courts, one OF
which, at least, supplies sarpy county
with judicial machinery at practically
no cost.

In a speech delivered on Governors
day before the Dodge City (Kan) SOL
diers' reunion, Governor Hoch is quoted
as saying: Sooner or later the temper

forced. This is no buncombe. Both Mis-
souri, and Kansas have a little rebellion
on just now and the law-abiding element
will win the battle" Governor Folk of
Missouri, following Governor Hoch, de-
clared that "the dram shop law is being
strictly enforced in st. Louis, Kansas
City and st. Joseph" and it will be as
long as he is governor. That surely was
a reflection on the governor of Kansas,
who is undoubtedly doing all he can to
enforce the prohibition laws, but at best
can only promise that Kansas liquor
laws will eventually be obeyed. AS
matter of fact, the dram shop laws are
not enforced much better in Missouri
than they are in Kansas or in Maine.

Folks crusade will effervesce in the

In the ffty-nine certificates OF merit
issued by the war department this year
there was only one officer represented in
the list. Lieutenant G. J. Oden Of the 10th
cavalry, on duty at Fort Washable, Wyo.,
who received this emblem in recognition
Of gallantry in action in Lugon In Novem-
Der, 1889, while he was a sergeant major
in the 36th volunteer infantry.
The attention Of the war department has
been called to an advertisement which ap-
pears in the western newspapers and which
contains most attractive pictures Of mill
tary and naval life The subjects are such
as are likely to be regarded with favor
by youthful readers, since they show an
officer Of cavalry leading charge in one
bridge Of a warship in another picture.
The advertiser states that young men be-
tween the ages of II and . years, who have
a knowledge of reading, writing. arithme-
tic and grammar may be admitted to the
military academy or the naval academy,
and he offers to furnish further particu-
lars on receipt of four cents In stamps.
Ofcourse, there is some means by which
the advertiser derives a revenue from this
form OF publicity The statements are a
misrepresentation Of the situation, to
start with, and the purpose Of the adver-
usement has become a matter for official
investigation.

The Bennington horror was clearly
a preventable accident. It was not as
if the weakness of tn eboilers were
unknown and the explosion therefore
unforeseen. 1t was common report
among navy men that the boilers were
unsafe. Commander Young know it
and so reported to his superiors. 1t
is stated, but not fully verified, that
his predecessor in command OF the
vessel reported some three months
ago that the Bennington's boilers were
| in an unsatisfactory and unservice-
able condition. Taking these facts to-
gether it seems evident that somebody
has been guilty of criminal negli-

fault is higher UP. Possibly the fault
was due to mere dilatoriness or the
