Korean Ministers and Janan

Most of Americas interests in Korea
are missionary. 1t becomes a matter
of trite interest, therefore, to this
country what ultimate effect the an
nexation of Korea by japan is going
to have on foreign missions. But this
interest is shared also by other coun-
tries If they have any missionary in
terests there. The Presbyterians and
Methodists are carrying on most of
this work, and they had outlined plans
for this year to secure 100000 con-
verts from among the natives. Al
ready it seems as IL they are certain
to be disappointed, for the peculiar
Korean mind, even tempered by the
refining influence of Christianity, has
been considerably upset by the loss of
its national identity.
The fact is this, according to some
accepted authority; Many Koreans
had strangely counted on some vague
influence of the Christian missionaries
to prevent annexation by Japan, and,
more than that, actually to Dust Jap
anese control from the Hermit King
dom. OF course, the more intelligent
Koreans and the Japanese never
thought of such thing, but unfortu-
nately many of the natives are not
very intelligent as to such matters
Now they see themselves under Jap
ans dominion, and it is reported al
| literally true that large numbers OF
Koreans are Withdrawing from the
Christian church. This, of course, IL
to be regretted, for Christianity in the
orient means progress, and the people
who embrace It enjoy larger and better
lives. 1t will take some time. there
fore, to cope with this situation, but
! it, of course, will be done.
So far as is known, American mis-
sionaries kept their hands off the In
ternational relations pending the an
nexation, and the late Marquis Ito o.
japan. who conducted these negotia
tions, so testified, despite some ulteriol
pretensions to the contrary by othert
less enlightened and less disposed t
tell the truth than the Grand OLE
Man of the New Japan The presen
situation is not without it's problems
to the American churches.

CENTER OF POPULATION.
VIII the Hub Shift East, West or
SOuthH


One of the most interesting results OF the
census will be the determination of the
center of population 1t has been lettering
In Indiana for a generation. unwilling to
leave the state of pawpaws and popular nov
elists. There are Indications, how uveI,
that the mysterious point may nave been
attracted toward the west and south, and a
bare possibility that the Holster state
will be at last forsaken. 1t is certain that
there has been a remarkable growth of city
population in Texas and Oklahoma. 1t is
already clear too, that the increase of city
population has not been rapid as in the
previous decade. The biggest and the most
cities are in the east.
1t would, however, require a jump OF
seventy miles for the center to clear
Indiana, and only once since the census
began has so long a jump been made. Be
tween 1850 and 1860 the point passed over
eighty-one miles. The average ten-year
trip is thirty miles, but in the las.
decade 1890 to 1900, only fourteen miles
were passed. Always the movement has
been toward the west, the path following
closely the thirty-ninth parallel of latitude
1t was just 100 years ago, in 1920, that the
center of population was first located-on
the eastern shore of Maryland. Ten years
later saw it eighteen miles west Of Baltl-
more. The next decade witnessed the &C
QUESTION of the Louisiana territory, fact
which betrayed itself in a southern trend
of the point during the years 1909 ana 1922
Then 1t resumed it's movement due west
marking spots forty, fifty-five and eighty
miles apart By 1850 1t had reached a spot
twenty miles south Of Chilllcothe, o. Then,
at first with a slight northward tendency,
it passed on for its sojourn near Columbus,
Ind.
The census makes no effort to show the
center of political power, but it may safely
be concluded that this also has not moved
toward the east during the decade past

A Victory for nenoenov.

Governor Patterson OF Tennessee
has been at the feast OF Belshazzer
too long. and il was the ominous
handwriting on the wall and not the
good of the democratic party. that led
him 20 withdraw as a candidate for
reelection. That is perfectly plain to
anybody who has a primary knowl-
edge Of the school OF politics in which
Patterson has for years been a past
master He withdrew because he
knew that certain defeat would over
take him II he staid in the race until
the people could reach the polls. He
withdrew to save himself from an Of
fetal Reputation as great as has been
the unofficial reputation which the
decent people of Tennessee have given
him.
Patterson invited all of this when
he pardoned the murderer Of former
Senator Carmack. the one his boon
companion in politics, the other his
enemy. He there and then invited
the righteous wrath or the people and
without regard to party lines. popular
sentiment turned against him and had
he persisted as a democratic candidate
for his third term as governor, nothing
could have saved him from over
whelming defeat. His nomination. IN
the first place, was irregular and un-
popular; made by his state committee
and not endorsed by his party. He
had hoped this tide of resentment
against him would abate and for
"democracy's sake. the people would
forget and re-elect him, but instead of
abating. the tide has steadily risen
higher and higher, until in its over
flow at the polls he perceived his own
doom.
Republicans, together with decent
democrats of Tennessee, deserve much
credit for moulding and maintaining
this sentiment against this governor.
who, defying every element of polit-
zeal and legal decency, took the law in
his own hands and turned out of
prison a cold-blooded murderer for no
other reason than that he had done
the bidding of his liberator And IL
is not at ALL certain that the repub-
licans will not, despite Patterson s
withdrawal, reap some reward in ad-
dition to it at the polls, but If they
do not they and the other decent ele-
ments of the state have achieved q
distinct victory in the elimination OF
Patterson from public life. They have

UOpefuIness in the Awakening of
American Minds.
George Harvey in North American Review.
The American people still have the
power. Theirs also is the responsibility.
Are signs visible that they are evading
It? Rather the reverse. Neither of the
great political parties is unified In pro-
posing remedies One apparently Is rent
in twain. But in that fact lies no cause
OF alarm. The true significance is to the
highest degree encouraging That great
problems cannot be resolved In a day, a
month OF a year, is patent truth that
demands recognition. But vastly more
important is the certainty that, in this
country, they cannot be resolved at all
except through the application of the best
Intelligence Of all the people.
Hence the hopefulness in the obvious
awakening OF minds throughout the land.
Already we perceive a growing demand
for more competent representation in con-
gress. for higher standards of fitness IN
all public officials, for closer attention to
public duties, for greater efficiency in
every direction. This can only mean that
acts OF those in temporary authority will
be more sharply scrutinized and that the
people themselves, In order 10 pass dis
corning criticism, will attain better under
standing. Surely, when we consider fur

chot investigating committee reported,
for the people as a whole undoubtedly
have had their minds made up on the
different sides of this controversy a

that things have taken the course they
have. II is remarkable that any re-
port from the committee should be
given to the public before going to

ton; at least until such a course was
approved by all members of the COM
mittee.
