ORIENTAL SPLENOOR

It was a great stroke Of nterna' tionaI politics that viscount Kaneko made when he declared to the of. acers of Uncle sans war ships that H hc-Uucle would do the business for an concerned the Mix ado would at once stop building bat tleships on her own account. Moth ing could have been finer. lt was 10 say that Uncle sam was not to be feared it he would give his word for what he would or would not do. fully armed: that he would be- al- lowed 10 place himself in position where he COULD oyer.awe any na- ton. his word being sufficient that he would not so take advantage of his strength. or course the wise Jap knows Uncle sam will not assume any such responsiOtliW-not Yet. Hence it follows that Japan must not be criticised for preparing to take care of hrrselt-uot against the United States. mind you. but against her own yellow kin of the orient that's the inference. It was a fine stroke. Ir was worth sending the fleet over there to hear that. It is bit of oriental spIeudor in flattery.
