Pushing Russia Into a Corner.

An eminent Japanese statesman, who
has himself been president of the mika-
dos council, recently indicated the
terms upon which the Tokyo govern
ment will make peace with Russia. In
addition to the cession of territory in
the east, the evacuation of Manchuria
and hands off policy toward Korea,
Japan will exact, according to this au-
thority, pecuniary indemnity Of ST.
GOO, 100000 to reimburse her for the
cost Of the war.
The precedents of Russia, and the
whole world for that matter, are
against the payment of indemnity ex-
cept as ransom for territory occupied
by the enemy. Japan will not be found
holding down any original Russian soil
at the end of the war unless she carries
her armies to the far north, overland,
and sends Togo's feet as a conqueror
to the waters of the Baltic sea. But
this extreme Of warfare, were it posi-
BILE, would only be sending good money
after bad, for it would double the bill
to be collected.

the heavy buffeting Of the sea, now
raging afresh at this unlocked for re-

The Sirdar had completed her last
voyage. She was now battered wreck
Oh a barrier reef. She hung thus for
one heartbreaking second. Then an
other wave, riding triumphantly
through its fellows, caught the great
steamer in its tremendous grasp, car
ried her onward for half her length
and smashed her down on the rocks.
Her back was broken She parted in
two halves. Both sections turned COM
pletely over in the utter wantonness of
destruction, and everything masts,
tunnels, boats, hull, with every living
soul on board-was at once engulfed
in maelstrom of rushing water and
far flung spray.

Whenever I open
The ancient books
The one thing I ponder is.
SOutherners and the South.

The southern Industrial parliament
which recently convened in Washing
ton for the discussion of questions re-
lating to southern Industries has been
criticised on the ground that the move
ment for which it stands is Distinctive
~ sectional. That may be the case,
but it is also true that sectional spirit
and pride have been important factors
in the commercial and Industrial de-
velopment Of the whole country. From
the days Of the pioneers each section
in turn has had it's special problems
and it's own battles to fight.
The southern states are now in a
peculiar position with respect to devel-
opment. The south is the only part of
the Union in which emigration has for
long time exceeded immigration. It
is said that million and a half of
southern born whites are living out
side of the southern states, disas-
trous drain of energy and ability. For
tunately there is ability left in the
south and, what is more, zeal for a
share III the improvement which is
taking place in other sections.

closed, her lips and teeth firmly set-a
fact to which she undoubtedly owed
her life, else she would have been suf-

seemed to be that terrible bloodless

lines in the mans face relaxed, and
something blurred his vision. He was
