The newspaper was once a mere DO

veyor OF information. The editorial page
was all that remained of the old Do
lemic pamphlet. The news features be-
came more and more important, and
the struggle of the editorial page for
survival In its oldtime influence was fur
ther handicapped as newspapers became
bigger and their writer's anonymous.
Then along came the cartosnist. at

Cleaned About Japan.

In connection with the present furry
about relations with Japan, II is inter
esting TO know, on General Staff author
ity, that the United States has been
compiling very accurate and detailed
facts about Japan. Maps showing ev-
erything of military value or signifi-
canoe. together with other matter, have
been secured. and the work already has
progressed so far that the fund of in
formation is remarkably complete.
The work of collecting information
about Japan has been going on for some
time. It was not based on any particu-
lar impression that Japan was likely to
be an enemy. though among army and
navy men it is the universal opinion that
there is more likelihood of using this
information as to Japan than as 70 any
other country
In the business of gathering military
Information which might be used in case
of campaigns in foreign countries. the
Americans and Japanese have received
most attention. Canada, for instance,
is we'll in hand, and Cuba has been
charted with the greatest detail and
eXaCtness.

would be of the greatest worth in case
of war. The japanese owed much in
their Manchuriau campaign TO their SUI
uerior intelligence service. No japanese
commander made mistakes in the field
based on lack of information. He was
provided with the information at the
beginning Of his movement.
No Dreyfus Case Here.
There are said TO be two reasons why
the United States makes no great mys-
terry about it's military information. One
is that there is grave doubt whether
maps of Kansas and Minnesota would
be of much use 20 an invading army
anyhow; If they would, they are to be
had without much trouble or expense.
The other is that under a republican
government 1t would not be easy to use
