JAPAN AND CHINA.

The world powers, and. the world at
large, for that matter. are watching
lfltently the trend Of affairs in the
Orient, and the general opinion seems
% be that Toxic has a celebration
due, not merely in account of Japan's
naval victories under Togo, but on ac-
count Of her supremacy lin the far
east. supremacy that extends to
commerce and international influence
In nearly all things.
Judged from the standpoint of
careful observer. events in the Orient
during the past fifty years have been
working toward one end-Japanese
preponderance. While Japan has
teen going ahead as nation by rea-
son OF her study of the customs and
Industries OF other countries, China
has held herself aloof Her great wall
las consistently bounded the limits of
her activities, but she has been unable
to prevent the willy Japs from sys-
tematically organizing their influence
In her schools, in trade, in the army
and to some extent in the provincial
End in the imperial governments. This
has all been done in quiet, unob-
trusive way, apparently, and without
giving alarm to the Chinese. Japan,
voicing the slogan, China for the
Chinese has really had in her minds
eye the attainment of the object that
might be summed up thus: China for
the yellow race"
Little by little the Chinese are
emerging from their shell Of seclu-
sion and seeking foreign markets, at
the same time affording foreign pro-
ducers a market for their goods. 1t is
reasonable to expect that this will CON
tfnne as time GOES on and that event
ually China will open her doors for all
time. It is reasonable to suppose. that
unless Japan can secure a strong
enough foothold in China to secure
all the benefit Of the opening of those
doors. China for the yellow race"will
be great stroke for Japan. The is

land nation can enjoy the advantages
of the open door herself and import
all the foreign products to re-export
them to China. reaping harvest
meanwhile in her guise of middle
man. or better still, substitute her own
products.
1t is true that up to the present
time the Japanese have planned their
lines of action consistently in favor
of the open door and opposed to the
plan that is prophesied for them. But
this would naturally be part of the
China for the yellow race" scheme,
and the best way to secure China's
confidence would be to maintain
stand for the universal open door, But
the time will come soon when Japan
will be ready to close China except to
the Japanese, and when that time
comes it is very probable that the is
landers will throw off their character
Of world benefactor and come down to
the material standard. Japan for the
Japanese and the whole Orient if they
can get it, sounds like a selfish motto
but Japan cannot be blamed if this
really expresses her true object.
1t is high time that the nations of
the commercial world enter into a con-
test with Japan forzthe Chinese mar
kets. Every month lost means a gain
for japan if she desires to take ad-
vantage of the opportunity offered.
And if her progressive record thus far
is criterion there is every likelihood
that the advantage will not be over
looked.

JUST PLAIN AMERICAN.

Despite all the yellow" stories that
have been circulated about Miss Alice
Roosevelt since her father became
President, there is every Indication
that she is just an ordinary American
girl, like any other and that she is not
the seeker after notoriety that some Of
the sensational correspondents would
lead the people of the country to be-
lieve. Miss Roosevelt issnow en- route
from San Francisco to Washington on
the Hartman special, train that
promises to smash speed records be-
tween the Pacific and Atlantic railway
terminals. She arrived in the United
States from the orient on Monday and
the first thing she did was to deny the
silly stories that have been sent out
from Japan and the Philippines about
her.
Of course, Miss Roosevelt was made
the object of much attention during
her trip abroad. AS the daughter of the
chief executive of the United States
she was entitled to every courtesy at
the command of the people in the coun-
tries she visited. The orientals con-
sidered her a princess and were sur.
prised to see that she was apparently
no different from other American girls
they had seen. AS matter of course
they treated her as member of the
royalty is treated in their monarchies,
but she denies that the sultan of Sulu
made her a proposal of marriage. She
is equally pronounced in her denial of
the silly story that she dived into the
big tank of the Corea while en- route
to Japan, yet these stories were sent
out rs gospel truth by correspondents,
who deserve no better description than
"disgracefully yellow"
The wonder is. in the case of Miss
Roosevelt, that she has not had her
head turned by the many attentions
she has been shown, not only abroad
but in her own country. 1t is some
thing unusual for President to have
daughter of her age and she has been
made much of by her own people as
well as by the foreigners. That she re-
mains an ordinary American girl is a
great credit to her and proof Of the
truth of the old maxim, .Blood will
tell" Miss Roosevelt is like her father
full of life and spirits and the capa-
bility of enjoying life to the fullest ex-
tent. 1t is regrettable fact that SEN
sationalism claims her for a victim,

ties, Mcclellan is sure of victory over

Mr.. WINS work will not be lost. Know

"REMINISCENCES Of HENDERSON

g. ~ Sc
Washington Representative
Charles B. Lands, Of Indiana, chair
man of the subcommittee to investi-
gate the printing of public documents.
etc, is at the Raleigh. The news from
Dubuque, Ia, that Cen, d. B. Hender-
son, ex-speaker Of the house Of repre-
sentatives, is SLOWLY dying, put Mr..
Lands in a reminiscent mood this
morning.
Poor Dawes race is almost run"
said he. His death will remove an in
teresting personality. Whenever I
think of Henderson I am reminded Of
the exciting contest for the speakership
in the Fifty-f1rst congress, in which
five of the leading republicans In the
house figured doubt ii you could
match it in the history of the house.
The candidates for speaker in the
memorable Fifty-first congress - for
that was the congress in which the
rules of the house We're revolutionized
in keeping with the progress of the
country--were Reed, Of Maine, Nc
Kinley, of Ohio, Burrows of Michigan,
Henderson, of Iowa. and Cannon of
Illinois. And all FIVE We're successful
in achieving a distinction; in other
words, they We're promoted. Reed was
elected speaker, and he made McKin-
ley chairman of the ways and means
non went to the head Of the appropri-
ations committee Henderson was APP
pointed on appropriations committee,
Burrows served on ways and means.
| "In the next congressional election
that of '1S90-McKinley was defeated,
and his defeat made him governor of
| Ohio, and later president Of the United
where he now Is. Henderson was
chosen speaker In the Fifty sixth and
! Fifty seventh congresses, no other
name being presented to the party
caucus because the contest was set
| tied long before the meeting Of congress.
| Cannon succeeded to the speakership
in the last congress. he too, being
un animouslv chosen in the caucus
having won the fight practically be-
seventh congress, Henderson having
announced his retirement in the fall
Of the previous year. And Uncle joe
will again be unanimously chosen
1 when congress meets in December.
Mckinley and Reed are dead, and
poor Dave soon will follow. This
brings to mind that during the past
eight years Of my service in the house
our party and the country have lost
a number Of brilliant and valuable
public servants Besides President
Mckinley and ex-Speaker Reed there
comes to mind Vice President Hobart
ex-President Benjamin Harrison
Dinglev, the author of the tariff ACT
that bears his name; Sherman. who
was McKinley's first secretary OF
state; Hanna, who proved himself the
greatest manager who ever handled g
presidential campaign. and Hay ,one
of our greatest secretaries Of state. The
ranks Of our really great men have
indeed. been thinned in the past few
years"

JAPAN,s VIEWS.

NAAAiSi iSeiio WIZ nave watched Win
growing uneasiness the progress Of
Japan IN military way and have
really feared the little yellow nation
mad IT'S eyes upon the Philippines, will
be pleased to learn from an authorita-
tive source that this is not the case.
Eki H1oki, first secretary of the jap
anese legation in Washington, in an
address at Cleveland, declared few
days ago that Japan had no idea of
becoming dictator in the orient and
told why
At the outset of his address Mr..
Hioki denied that japan had any am
bltlon to assume the position of die
tator In the orient. He took up then
and discussed categorically the most
important of the speculations and
fears expressed here and abroad con-
corning Japan's present and future pol
icy.
These he classified under six heads:
l. The yellow peril.
g. Japan's policy in the Philippines.
8. Japan's policy in China.
4. Commercial policy in China.
g. immigration into the United
States
D. The future of the orient.
In substance Mr.. Hioki declared that
the yellow peril was a Needless fear,
that Japan has no designs on the Phil
ippines, that the open door policy will
be adopted in China, and that there is
every reason to believe Japanese i'm
migaticn into the United States would
steadily decrease.
OF Japan's future policy in the Phil
ippines Mr.. Hioki said:
Frank and unreserved disavowals of
the alleged designs of Japan upon the
Philippines having frequently eman-
ated from authoritative sources, 1t is
superfluous for me to repeat them. But
the fact that there is constant recur-
renee OF the same allegations in the
newspapers of this country shows that
the repeated disavowals from author
itative sources have borne little fruit,
either because the general public still
distrusts Japan in this matter or be-
cause a certain section of the Ameri-
can people wants to get up some agi-
tation for their own interests.
Can you believe that this great
American people, who glory in their
national spirit, in their gigantic
strength, in their boundless wealth, in
their marvellous development, and who
look forward with proud and confident
anticipation to the time when they
shall be the first in the race civiliza.
ton has set for man to run, would
allow her flag to be lowered, be 1t in
the Philippines or any other place
which legitimately belongs to her by
any hands but hers?
mo; most emphatically, no. That is
the spirit with which you cling to your
new possessions in the Pacific and that
ought to be the spirit of the people
And who can better understand that
spirit of the Americans than
the japanese? Therefore, ii
Japan harbored such a sinister de.
sign as is attributed to her, she must
be prepared to plunge into a war far
more gigantic than the one just ended
against a nation to which she owes
much of what she is today, and to
whose people she owes that moral and
financial support SO unreservedly given
at the most critical period in her his
tory. The Philippines would not be
WORTH the sacrifice of such valuable
friendship"

NArIuE'Ro BORN PEOPLE.

Some interesting facts respecting
the relative proportion of native and
foreign population in different parts
of Iowa is disclosed by the state cen
sus. For one thing it is shown that
the thriving town of Milton in Van
Buren, county has the largest per.
centage Of native born people Of any
community in Iowa. No less than
93.7 per cent Of its people are native
born and Of native parents, 81 native
born and of foreign parents and only
12 foreign born The percentage OF
native to foreign born is greater in
southern Iowa than elsewhere in the
state. The cities and towns with the
highest percentage are the follow
ing.
