But to turn to another phase ot
modern conditions. You in your
materiallstic progress have given the
Orient implements of destruction.
while through all the ages we gave
you naught but peace. These weap-
ons OF warfare the Oriental, imper-
sonated by the Japanese, turned upon
the Russian, and the result was war
the like of which Is unknown in his
tory-not single reverse for the men
of Nippon. Those same Japanese. with
reawakened China even greater than
Japan, and India at the back of both,
are going to show the world a conflict
that will make all others pale In COM
parison.
America wants to exploit the whole
world, but would shut out foreigners
from her borders. Is 1t not likely that
foreign nations will retaliate? And
then what answer can America make?
"The Mikado Is one of the greatest
rulers any nation has produced In
modern times. When, ten years be-
fore the war with Russia, japan was
deprived of the fruits of her victory
over China by the European powers
the Mikado said nothing. but complied
with apparently good grace. Then he
quietly prepared to punish Russia as
the most hated of those powers.
Future events will come about In
this way: President Roosevelt will
suggest to Japan that an exclusion
treaty be signed preventing Japanese
of the lower classes from entering
America. This will not meet with
favor on the other side of the Pacific,
but storm will arise here which will
force through congress some sort Of
an exclusion measure.
"The Mikado will still hold his
peace, but soon after he will frame
message to be sent to Washington,
reading something like this:
You have found it necessary for
the protection Of your working classes
to exclude Japanese from your borders.
After careful consideration we find
that our country will be benefited by
prohibiting the entry Of American
trade, and decree is hereby promul
gated
What could America do but ac-
cede, at least for the time? Yet how
could such condition continue? The
great conflict is coming, and while !
hate to think of 1t, while regret that
peace cannot always prevail, still, the
people Of many countries will be bene-
flied and those Of my own India will
be free.
This seems harsh prophecy to
make upon leaving America for all
time, but 1t is something neither you
nor can control. 1t is the newt
able."-N. Y. Herald.

In India religion Is the chief busi-

It is the true anchor Of the Hindu. In

I'VE wonder how we ever got along

Mrs. Miller wired her husband from

Friends Travelled with Mr.. Miller near

He had large sum in his possession
and it is feared by Mrs. Miller that he
was waylaid and relieved of his money.
Mr.. and Mrs. Miller were on the best

is no ground for believing that Miller has
wilfully deserted his wife. The Chicago
police department is deeply interested
in the case and every effort is being
made to find some trace of the missing
