KANSAS CITY, January 29.-That
the United States in its unprepareu-
ness for war; is unwillingly tempting
Japan to attack her, was the declara-
tion of Horace Newton Allen of To-
ledo, Ohio, former Minister to Korea,
in an address before the Knife and
Fork Club here last night.
Prior to the Japanese-C Chinese war;"
continued Mr.. Allen, Japan had spies
all though China, so that she knew
the latters weakness better than
did the Chinese themselves. The same
true of the Russian conflict. In
bon cases it was the weakness of her
antagonists that led Japan to war.
Shall we offer another such tempta-
ton? 1t looks as if we we're bent on
doing so. When Japan has taken Ha-
wall, as military authorities say she
could do overnight, as it were, she
could land quarter of a million men
on the Pacific Coast in twenty days,
while we could not get 100000 there in
three months But if Japan did make
war on us, it would be the enc OF
Japan, for we would sacrifice every
son and spend every dollar, if neces-
sary, in reconquering our country
Mr. Allen believes that should Japan
decide to make war on the United
| States, she will do so within the next
five years, before the completion of the
Panama canal and the expiration OF
the Japanese English treaty.
TOXIC, February 6.-The PROPOSE
ton of the United States for the neu
tralization of the railroads of Man
churia came as a surprise, and the pup
location of details of the note handed
to the Japanese Government on Decem-
Der 10th by the American ambassador
aroused an immediate chorus of dis
approval Putting aside all questions
of the business or political advisabilty
of the proposition; sentiment entered
mostly largely into the attitude of the
people of Japan. The Foreign Office
while admitting that such note mao
been received, woud give no tntimauo-
as to how it had been or would be
treated.
Count Hayashi last Minister for For.
eign Affairs and former ambassador
to Great Britain; Count Okuma former
ly one of the most active of statesmen
and every one whose name carried any
weight whatsoever, was quoted in the
newspapers in strenuous objections t.

THE CARS

AS we are, even today, an earnest
and constant patron of the cars, we
trust we may be permitted to make a
passing remark! Were we a man, it
seems to us today, not the offer of the
riches Of Golconda could tempt us to
undertake certain cares and duties,
involving often severe and undeserved
criticism, as a sure reward for the
management, for instance, of any car
road, the world over; for, indeed "the
world over" there must and will be
accidents, various and of divers sorts,
big and little. All this, then, a man
ager must promise to endure and to
undertake. An accident, true, is
fearful and a fearsome thing, even il
one secures as a result, only hard
shaking up. To be "shook up" thor
oughly, like to medicine in a bottle
is not to be desired often, or even at
long intervals. But to come nearer
home (Punahou), if we are to be sus-
picious of evil, in every car on the
road, we may as well one and all be-
come monks and nuns and not ven
ture outside the garden walls. We
should rather fancy, that the Rapid
Transit concern will be as actively
concerned and vigilant as practicable,
to conserve and preserve its own in
terests and well-being. No company,
however, is superhuman, and acct
dents will happen, i'm the best Of bust
ness affairs, and have to work ever on
the base of profit and loss. Not even
Manager Ballentyne himself can go
down inside an iron bar or even be
able to determine, with any degree
of accuracy, when the same may or
will be played out 1t really looks
as if we shall, one, and all, have to
trust in that as in other mundane af-
fairs, to a merciful Providence to

AMERICA AND JAPAN and
FAR EASTERN PROBLEMS

that the principals of the open door
and equal opportunity for all nations
doing business in China must be pre-
served. But Japan has entered into
solemn agreement with the powers
Of America and Europe to preserve the
integrity OF China and to maintain the
principle of the open door and equal
opportunity in concert with China and
with all other nations and to this
Japan has adhered religiously.
I'm two ways, therefore, the United
States attacks the honor and sentiment
of the people of Japan. Is it any won
der that we refuse to permit our Gov
eminent even to suggest that the pro-
posal has been received by Japan with
equanimity?'
PERIL OF THE SITUATION.
This statement practically voices the
entire expression heard from pubic in
the first forty-eight hours after the
first news Of receipt of Secretary
Knox note But the further senti-
ment was expressed thus:
"The riots that followed the making
of the treaty of Portsmouth would not
be a circumstance to the trouble that
would follow the REIMBURSEMENT by
Japan of her rights in Manchuria, even
though she received twice the intrinsic
value
So far as can be learned by respon-
sible investigation there is little or nc
foundation for charges of discrimlna-
tion brought against Japan in con-
nection with trade in Manchurla. The
leading business firms of England and
American are in common with the Jap
anese, suffering from depreciation in
trade in this territory, but that de-
precation is due to conditions over
which neither the Japanese nor any
other country has any control
JAPAN WILL HOLD ON.
One thing may be set down as abb
solutely certain, and that is that Japan
is not going to give up her right in
the South Manchuria Railway until
these rights shall be terminated by
the lapse of the term for which japan
has control Japan was given con-
troll of the South Manchurian Railway
for thirty-six years from the signing
of the Portsmouth treaty. The Antung
Mukden Railway will remain in pos
! session of Japan for fifteen years
There are in Manchuria about $1,000
Japanese settlers, and since they ar
within the zone of the railroad wher
Japan has a sphere of influence, tn
proposed taking over by the power
would place the interests of those il
jeopardy.
