should be a fusion. Out of this fusion
there should emerge a better race.
we can learn much from the various
people Of the orient which would be
beneficial TO ourselves, and while we
receive from them we are able to
contribute the one great principle OF
the Anglo-Saxon race, namely. liberty.
Every race that has come into power
and prominence has stood for some

principle, and also to bear the mes
