According to the reports cabled
from Toxic, the people of Japan are
suffering from very bad case of
swelled head over the result OF the
russian war, says the Irish-American.
The populace there refuse to accept
the peace terms agreed upon at Ports
mouth, and are especially incensed
against the dropping of the indemnity
clause. In their resentment they
have burned ten Christian churches
and stoned the Marquis Ito, head of
the Privy Council, and several prom
1nent Americans now visiting in
Japan. Such conduct will accentuate
before the civilized world the yellow
peril" of further exploitation of the
of these pagan bar.
barians. 1t will lose for Japan much
OF the popular favor gained during the
war, and have marked effect on the
rehabilitation of Russia in her old-time
influence as world power. 1t is we'll
that the outbreak has come so soon
and before the efforts of the war had
any far-reaching influence on public
opinion. The Christian world now
knows what it still has to deal with in
Japan and China.

The hold which the Tammany
leader has upon the people of his dis
trict has been the subject of wonder
OF politicians for more than a cen
fury, and yet when one understands
what Tammany leader really does
for his people it is not so hard to
understand why the people cling to
those leaders even when those lead
ers are anything but ideal. 1t has
been the custom of the newspapers
to make sport of certain of the most
influential Tammany leaders. The two
Sullivans, nicknamed big Tim" and
Little Tim." are among those who
have suffered at the hands of the
press. A few days ago these two men
chartered two steamboats, and gave
an excursion to which the prosperous
were invited. The object of the ex-
cursion was to raise funds for charit-
able purposes. Eleven thousand
tickets were sold at five dollars each.
The net profits on the affair was thir-
ty-three thousand dollars which goes
to the Sullivan Charity Fund which
big Tim" and Little Tim" will use
during the year to pay rents and look
after those In their district who need
aid. Acts of this kind explain why
these men of the people are popular.

MERITS OF RUSSIAN ARMY,

There is a belated attempt on the
part of the London press to do Justice
to Russia and it's fighting forces.
whether this disposition arises from
the promptings of conscience or from
the desire to appease Russia cannot
be said. A correspondent of the Lon
don Times while giving the Japanese
credit for valor, discipline and the ma
tional spirit of self-sacrifice, neverthe-
less, praises the merits of the Rus
sian forces. The following statement
will meet with approval: THAT an
army should fight continuously for
eighteen months without a CLEAN of
success, lose half it's men in action
and retain cohesion and stomach for
fighting to the last speaks volumes for
the solidity of the Russian armies"
The disadvantages to which the Rus
sian army was subjected from the first
are apparent to all. 1t was five thou
sand miles or more from it's base and
connected Herewith by single line
of railroad while the Japanese army
was close to its base and connected
Herewith by the open sea. The stu.
alton would have been enough to de-
ter most any other country from en-
gaging in the struggle. That Russia
was able to fight so long in country
where the forces of nature were
against her speaks volumes for the
power Of the nation and the character
of its soldiers. 1t is doubtful whether
there Is another army in the world
that would have maintained the .disci-
pline and the power of resistance un-
der like circumstances that the Rus.
sian army exhibited. II the Russian
navy had possessed the same qualities
as the Russian army the struggle
might have been maintained on the
part of Russia with some hope of sue
cess. 1t must be admitted that Rus
STA is not naval power.
A calm consideration of the part
played by the Russian army in the
recent war will not be likely to en-
courage any other nation to rush
wantonly into war with Russia.

Exposition which is to open in Madi-

women representatives OF the lace

They speak their native language

own looms on which they weave the

Mayor Patrick A. Collins of Bos-
ton, died Thursday at Hot Springs,
Va, of hemorrhage OF the bowels. He
had a national reputation and was
one of the leading Democrats Of the
country. During his political career
he had served a number Of terms in
Congress and was United States
CONSUL general at London from 1893
to 1897, having been appointed to the
position by President Cleveland. He
was the first national president of the
land league in this country. Thor
.oughly representative of his race, the
death of Mayor Patrick A. Collins
will be keenly felt not only in Amer
lea, but in every land where his name
and fame were known. He Is sur
vived by widow, two daughters and
one son.

Democrats who heretofore differed
with him. He has gone even farther
than that and has not wasted his time
in mere denunciation of the actions Of
Republican leaders. He has rather
confined himself to the discussion OF
Questions affecting the people without
any regard to the relation of those
questions to party policies or plat
forms. He has found it possible to
commend President Roosevelt for
those actions which are commendable.
He has not made the mistake of op.
posing the good things that President
| Roosevelt has fought for just because
they are advocated by Republican
President. On the other hand he has
not been slow to take advantage of the
mistakes which the President has
made, and no one is better able than
he to picture those mistakes to the
people. 1t would probably take a ma
tional election to prove whether or
not William j. Bryan is more popular
than he was during the two campaigns
in which he was candidate, but we
need no further proof than his public
utterances of recent date to show that
he has grown in wisdom and that his
judgments of opponents are more just
and considerate. We believe that he
would make a much better leader to-
day than he did in 1896. There might
not be so much dash and vigor, but
there would be more dignity and
slower and truer judgments.
He has departed on a trip which
will bring him in contact with the
peoples of many different countries.
He will have an opportunity to study
the workings of political, social and
economical organizations differing
much from our own. It is a certainty
that a man of his sincerity of purpose
and intellectual capacity will learn
much from such trip. He will doubt
less return a better American than
ever; more thoroughly satisfied that,
with all our faults, the American peo-
pie are the most prosperous and their
government the best in all the world.
He will return also with a more sin
cere desire to apply himself to the
real work of a statesman rather than
to that of a politician. 1t is by no
means impossible that he may yet be
called upon to perform greater work
for his country and its people than
he has had the opportunity to do in
the past. The American people like
men Of his stamp. It is almost certain
that ii he lives he will dictate the
policy and candidate OF the Demo-
cratic party three years hence.

THEIR DISHONEST ACTS.

The action of the Senior class at
the University in refusing to pay a
debt contracted by that class with a
firm of printers in this city casts dis
credit upon the institution and upon
the students as body. For some
years past there has been a growing
disposition on the part Of the stu
dents at our State University to re-
gard themselves as outside the pale
Of the law. They have come to be-
lieve that they may do things which
il done by others would be considered
dishonest and disreputable. 1t is true
that the debt remains unpaid because
of the embezzlement of one of the
members. of that class. It may be true
that the members of the class are not
liable for the debt At most a class

Unfortunately there seem still to be
in the island of Martinique many
hardened sinners upon whom the cat
astrophe of 1902 mas had no lasting
effect. Says the Brooklyn Eagle:
I.ong-neglected Fort de France is pro-
fitting most by the exodus to the south
and is rapidly becoming second St..
Pierre. Its population has increased
from 10000 to 10000, and it is show
ing some gaiety, and much of the same
blasphemy and wild immortality that
distinguished the city, which, accord
ing to the native belief, was destroyed
for it's wickedness. In the old days,
when 1t was only the capital of the
island and not the commercial center,
Fort de France made some claim to
responsibility, but it now does not
make even pretence in that direc-
ton. The spirit of immortality and
blasphemy which dominated st. Pierre
has corrupted what little good there
was in Fort de France.

BRYAN GREATER THAN EVER.

1t begins to look as though the DEM
have been sufficiently chastened by
defeat so that they are able to hold
public meetings without arraigning
one another. 1t is inevitable that the
time must come sooner or later when
there will be united opposition
party. Such a condition of affairs in
a country governed by parties is not
only desirable but necessary in order
to secure good results. The Demo
Gratis presented sorry sight in the
last campaign. 1t has been a good
many years since the Democrats in
Congress have been able to accom-
plish anything by way of affirmative
action or as check upon the Re-
publicans.
Mr.. Bryan in his speech before the
Jefferson club of Chicago shows that
he has reached the point where he is
not only content, but DESTROYS of serv-
ing the party in that capacity in which
he can best serve it no matter
whether that be as candidate or as
a private individual. He wishes to be
remembered by what he has been able
to do for the people rather than by
what the people have been able to do
for him. He says that it is altogether
too early to talk Of candidates for the
presidential nomination in 1908. He
boldly asserts that he has hopes that
there may arise between now and
that time some man who will be able
to accomplish more as a candidate
than he has ever been able to &C
complish. Such announcements as
these are worthy of Mr.. Bryan and
are calculated to endear him more
than ever to the people. We are glad
to find that Mr.. Bryan has in the last
two years eliminated from his

csc generals, are descended from the
sO'Haras and O'Keoughs, says writer
OF some distinction. There is such a
thing as claiming too much and even
an Irishman can sometimes be guilty
of this fault. The assertion that the
paternal ancestors of the Jap COM
manders mentioned bore Irish names
will find little or no endorsement.
There is nothing in the characters
tics or general makeup of the Irish
man that will admit of any degree OF
relationship with the willy brown man,
near or remote. The 1rishman has in
deed much to be proud of, but don't
mix him up with the Jap with the en-
pectation of still further increasing
that pride. 1t won't do.

Bishop O'Connell of the diocese of
Maine, is about to visit Japan to in
vestigate conditions pertaining to the
Catholic church in that country. 1t is
reported that he is the special envoy
OF the Pope to the Emperor Of Japan.
Some feeling has arisen in Japan
against Catholics because of the fact
that the Missionaries are largely from
France, and that country is an ally
of Russia. The Catholics have suf-
fered many times since st. Francis
Xavier the Apostle of Japan in the
middle of the sixteenth century began
the work of converting the Japanese.
The prosecutions suffered have been
due to the fact that the Japanese
feared Western evil about as much
or more than some people fear a
yellow peril"

Prof. Owen r. Lovejoy's prophecy
that within decade the question of
the neglected children of the rich will
become as great social problem as
that of the neglected children of the
poor" is rather a statement of pres
ent condition than a prediction, says
the Memphis Catholic Journal. Even
now the children of the extremely
rich know very little of what is meant
by fathers or mothers love or
care. The father is given too much
to the accumulation of wealth. either
by fair or foul means, and the mother
finds little time from social duties to
attend to the care of her children. It
is nothing more than can be expected
that the children grow up without any
