JAPAN'S NEW MOVE.

If the nations believed that Japan
would be content with her success
when the boosted Russian giant lay
groveling at her feet, they are des-
tined to be disillusioned. There can
be no question now but that Japan
when she entered the lists against the
Russians in the far east, began a
carefully considered and we'll matured
plan to make herself one OF the in
fluential factors in the future of the
worlds history.
The latest move on the part of ia
pan is the announced intention of es-
establish an embassy at Constan-
tinople. There would be nothing in
this announcement alone to create
uneasiness in European diplomatic
circles or even to prove the inference
that Japan has deeper designs than
an ostentatious display of oriental
luxury, were it not for the peculiar
conditions which exist in Turkey at
this time. Japan has ambassadors at
nearly every prominent European cap
ital.
But in. Turkey the conditions are
such that the entrance of Japan into
the diplomatic field will have a po-
tential influence upon the control dur
ing life and dismemberment after
death of the sick man of the east"
The Turkish government is weak in
ternally, and is ready, if left to it
self, to fall to pieces. European ma
tons are DESTROYS of preserving it's
life as long as possible because the
distribution of the fallen nation must
inevitably lead to European comph-
cations.
In the past the powers have either
united for the control of abnormal
conditions in Turkey, or else have
been so evenly balanced as two par
ties that the equilibrium has been
maintained. The entrance of another
strong and aggressive nation like ia
pan into the combination means that
it would become the balance of power
in Turkey, either by an allegiance
with one side or the other, or by an
independent position in which its
weight could be thrown to the one
side or the other. Thus it is that ia
pan will become the arbiter of the
destiny of Turkey.
Ordinarily the establishment of
diplomatic relations between two
countries in modern international af-
fairs would mean nothing more than
the creation of a mutual admiration
society. But Japan announces that
she expects to have a voice in the
settlement of Turkish affairs and to
be factor in the making of Turk
ish destiny.
Whether the action OF Japan will
mean. should Turkey be finally
brought to ruin, that oriental influ-
ences will be established at the gate
way to Europe, and an insiduous con-
quest of Europe from that point be
begun, only time can tell, for the 81
lent Jap gives no information as to
his future plans. But that> portion of
Europe which lies in close proximity
to the Bosphorus is in a condition
to be easily brought under the DOM
mating influences of Japan. Austria,
Hungaria, Greece and Italy are now
in the throes of industrial evolution
which would make them susceptible
to foreign influences, especially such
as Japan would WELD. It would seem
that Japan has taken a well consid-
cred step in establishing a working
embassy at the seat of the Turkish
government.

SENATOR BERRY Is
AGAINST SMOOT
A VOTE FOR MORMON SENATOR
WOULD BE AN IMPETUS TO THE
CHURCH WHICH WAS REsPON-
slBLE FOR MOUNTAIN MEADOW

Washington, February II = Senator
Berry. of Arkansas. addressed the SEN
ate today in opposition to Senator Reed
Shoots retention of his seat. In taking
this position Mr.. Berry diselaimed any
personal feeling against Mr.. smoot. He
had served in committee with him for
four years with most pleasing relations.
He also disclaimed any political or religi-
Gus prejudices which might contribute to
his opposition.
Mr. Berry confined his argument prl-
marily TO a discussion of the constitu-
tional power of the senate to expell Mr..
Smoot, holding that any senator could be
excluded" by a majority vote of the
members of the body.
Mr.. Berry's opposition of Mr.. Smoot
was based on the doctrine of polygamy,
which he said was advocated by the Nor
mon church 1t was true that Mr.. smoot
was not, nor ever had been polygamist
but Mr.. Smoot had admitted, he said.
that revelations to the early leaders Of
the church not only permitted, but COM
manded polygamy. Mr.. Smoot had also
said he believed that members of the
Mormon church did receive revelations
should come to him (SmooD which was
in conflict with the oath he had taken as
a senator he would leave the country
before he would obey the senatorial oath
and the constitution Of his country.
Mr.. Berry gave the history of the
Mountain Meadow massacre, In which a
large band of emlgrants bound from Ar
kansas to California had lost their lives
in Utah. This massacre, he said, was
committed by Mormons and Indians, at
the direction and command Of Mormon
church leaders. This massacre occurred
before Senator Smoot was born, and Mr..
Berry said he held him in no way re-
sponsble for 1t, but he continued Mr..
Smoot has said: 1.-THE church is the same
for all time"
Mr. Berry said he objected to such
church dictations in politics, and he in
sisted that the senate ought to reject any
representative sent to the senate by 1t.
A vote for Senator Smoot, he said in con-
clusion. would be an impetus, and an en-
enlargement to the Mormon church and
to polygamy.
