mands absolute possession of Korea; virtual if not
absolute, dominion over Manchura and the right
of maintaining order III the government of China.
The formulation of these claims reopens the whole
Asiatic question. The yellow peril becomes
actually. Will Europe and America sanction this
programme? We know what happened after
Japan's with China. The treaty of peace
granted her about all that she asks But the
powers interfered and Japan had to be satisfied
with very little No one knows but that history
will repeat itself.
On the other hand will Russia consent to such
peace? We believe it not She can not afford it.
When she allowed to build her railroad through
Manchuria, she given virtual permission to
occupy the country To recede now would be
fatal blow to her eastern power and to her prestige
at home and abroad. She will never agree that
Siberia shall be permanently her eastern boundary
The internal condition of Russia is not so bad as
depicted by parties interested in depreciating
everything Russian and eXagerating every
renee that indicates discomfort. A worse state of
affairs existed in Colorado and yet it never i'm
perilled the existence of the United States. The
labor troubles of the last two months have re-
peaedly had their counterpars i'll this country. But
they never grew to the dimensions of civil war To
yield to Japan's claims would be departure
from all Russian precedents. Russia has never
abandoned any newly acquired territory. We do
not believe that the colossus of the north who with
stood the attacks of Bonaparte and finally broke his
power, will submit to the little brown Empire" If
it should will be brought face to face with an
other situation, one involving the antagonsn of
England and Japan on the one hand and of the rest
of Europe and America on the other.

EXCOMMUNlCATED.

The communication of Frank J. Cannon from
the Mormon church was one of the sensational
events of the week The prominent position held by
his father, George O. Cannon as first counsellor to
Presidents Brigham Young, John Taylor MILFORD
Woodruff, and Lorenzo Snow adds Importance to
the case The son, like the father is an able writer
clear and forcible, and man of wide and varied
experience Smarting under the penalties of the
sentence imposed upon him, and still retaining
hallowed memories of his honored father who stood
the second officer in the church for more than
quarter of century, with one foot as it were in
the first Frank j. Cannon will strike back with all
the severity he can command. Accommodation is
severe chastisement but it is penalty to which
all churches and social organizations have recourse
when members fail to comply with the rules. regu-
ations and discipline of the church or society ia
which they lay claim. 1t simply means sepera-
ton from external communion with the church. It
does not mean that the accommodated is accursed
but simply the withdrawal of fellowship. Apart
from the interested party it will be made the ocea
sion of religious chickering's and hatred from which
rarely any good results. To take advantage of ac-
lions to arouse religious animosties is not the spirit
of Christ who proclaimed universal peace and love
and nothing but ones own delberatc act can ever
seperate him from the love of God.

DISTINCTIVE TYPES OF SOCIALISM.

The system of voluntary Socialism" practiced
by the primitive Christians, and which is today
practiced by the religious communities of the
Catholic church, had and has, for its fundamental
principle, the charity nculcated by the teachings
of Christ, i. G., the practice of Christian amity,
sef-abnegation and evangelical poverty. Its par
Elephants must consecrate their lives to these lofty
principles, or their institution is foredoomed to
| failure and confusion.
The iniquity of compulsory socialism, as pro-
claimed by the revolutionary agitators of our day,
consists in the fact that the ambition of its cham
pions is of lf-aggrandzement-a desire to
bask in ease and comfort on the fruits of the toll
and frugality of their fellow beings forcibly
wrested from their rightful possessors. Their sys
TEN is proposed a remedy for the soul-blghtng
evils of predatory plutocracy; but would not the
remedy be UNNECESSARILY worse than the evil insult
ferably great though the latter may be!
There must be found a remedial system more in
harmony with the spirit of our civilization and with
our American institutions for the desperate evils
complained of. The spirit of the American people
will never countenance nor tolerate a system that
would tend to radically pervert its conception of
individual freedom and to Illustrate the develop
ment of the highest type of individualism in our
political social and industrial edifce. Here in
America, if anywhere on earth, man must be per-
mitted to achieve his God-ordained destiny unham-
pered by any mandevised restraints not absolutely
essential 20 the maintenance of order that dvnely
ordained social order which is Heavens first law
because it makes possible the exercise of that high
est form of liberty essential to the ascent of
man to that exalted estate for which he has been
''nally fore-ordained.
There is just one more vital consideration in
relation to this subject. Do the would-be reform
ers who, attracted by the contentment-the peace
of mind and tranquility of heart-that obtains
among the members of our religious communities
would mould society whole upon the model
thus presented realize that the very essence of the
coveted peace and tranquility must then, of
sity, be absolutely wanting?
It is the devoted ministry to the needs of the
unfortunate and afflicted members of society at
large that supplies the chief motive for the exist
ence of their institution. Were this motive want
ing were the members of these communities re-
stricted in their work to ministering, ever so de-
votedly, one to another, their institutions must
soon crumbe and fall because of the absence of the
supremacy inspiring motive which is the very foun-
dation of their existence.

WYNDHAM'S RETIREMENT.

Chief Secretary of Ireland Wyndham h,. .,.-
cumbcd to the inevitable by stepping down and o,.
His retirement announced by Balfour I'm Ill.,.
House of Commons on last Monday.
The more immediate cause of Mr.. W.rdl.u,
discontinue was his disagreement with and a.tcr,.
to discipline Assistant Secretary Mcdonnell t..
his retirement may fairly be attributed -. H.,
realization that the Irish people cannot be- SAT-. f,.
torily nor successfully ruled by the Eueli-l n...
crnment. This denoument is therefore another Viz.
tory for home rule and, it Is to be- hoped -,.,
reasonably be regarded as an encouraging auqur.t
its final and complete triumph in the nor .,.....
future.
Mr.. Wyndham is by no means bad sort. rr.,
is, indeed, manly man, and merits admiration I.I
esteem as a predetermined, generous -di~po-od .,I
patriotic statesman towering. in this r~pc-.. head
and shoulders above the generality of Ills conn.
freres It's pity that man of his c-.aa.rr..
character must bear the brunt of the foIio- of I4
associates.
His attitude toward his under secretary. a...1,
justly and naturally ineensed the Irish people WAS
an objectionable blundcr; but that it wa % buu..,
rather than the deliberate exhibition of am ,guaG..
and unfair spirit, no one who has studied o.,
mans public career and utterances will be- l.-
clined to doubt. Just to what extent his cour-. .I
this matter was influenced by his political COM
freres it is difficult to determine.
The whole affair affords another demonstration
of the fact that the English government is utterly
incapable Of successfully coping with the Irish
problem. If Its most bencvoently disposed and
ablest statesmen prove themselves so lamcutabrv
obnoxious and incompetent, what can be expected
from its ordinary mediocre and narrowly selfish
type of politicians.
