"The Forward March of Japan.

The JOURNAL is in receipt of an
essay written by Mrs. Kate Carpen-
ter Prindle on "The Forward March
of Japan" The subject is timely;
the essay is we'll written and shows
discrimination and the result of ju-
dicious investigation, but the article
is much too long for the space we
could devote for its publication.
The main feature of Mrs. Prin-
dies essay is the contention that the
splendid character of the Japanese
people is the result of religious ira
ditions and teaching, exemplifield in
their conduct.
The religion of the Japanese is
composite system-embracing Shin
toism, Confucianism, Buddhism,
and Christianity. All these sys-
TENS have in them elements of high
merit, principles operating for the
exaltation Of men. The Japanese
seem to have appropriated the best
precepts of each and incorporated
them into their conduct-LIvED
them. Their everyday lives are
dominated by these inculcations. AS
Mrs. Prindle says, "Religion gov
ems all life, all industry all pleasure
in Japan. Art, music, the songs OF
the people, the prattle of the chill
dren-all are full and deep with re-
ligious meaning to those who walk
in the ways of the Gods"
Shintoism is the "Way of the
Gods" and involves hero worship.
The belief in ghosts is well nigh
universal in Japan. The dead all
become Gods, irrespective of pie
vious conduct, but death does not
change the character. Shintoism is
religion of fear. The world OF
the living is dominated by the world
of the dead. The spirits ofthe dead
are everywhere. Shintoism de-
mands in its devotee purity, moral
and physical. The influence of
this system is all-pervading.
Next in order of time was an in
vasion of Confucianism from China.
But Confucianism is system OF
philosophy rather than of religion.
1t inculcates learning, the sciences
combined with ethics.
Later Buddhism came and en-
quilted the nation with tidal wave
of graciousuess. In short time it
influenced the universal life of Jap
an, animating with gentleness, SEN
sitiveness and charity. It modified
the rieor of the warlike spirit, in
spring a sentiment of respect for
life. Buddhism is the gospel of ten
derness; the antithesis of cruelty.
Later, and to bring forgiveness of
sin, redemption from its consequent
ces and the assurance of immortal
ity, came Christianity, infusing q
spirit of joyousness.

Attorney Louis Hanitch of Super

the promising candidate for the po-
sition on the supreme bench to be
filled next spring, seems to have
been sufficiently non-partisan in his

in all factions and all parties. Mr.
Hanitch is candidate for the new
position created by the law increas-
