Japan's Financial Problem.

Those who love to caiole themselves
into believing in the imminence of war
between the United States and japan
might find interest in studying the
present financial condition Of the
Flowery Kingdom. II nothing else
Will dissuade them from their conten-
lions, perhaps that may.
According to best available stalls
tics It cost Japan 1856, 900, 900 to
achieve what is called it's victory over
Russia. It's present national debt is
.$1,125.15S,411, which Amounts TO
$3.50 per capita. Il is paying out
under the head OF Interest and other
annual charges" $76.2s3,536, as com
pared with &2l. sos, 900, which the
United States is paying, and the
United States revenues are about
treble those OF Japan. The people Nof
Japan are said 10 be paying from 20
TO 80 per cent OF their incomes for
taxes. The debt. according to some OF
the Japanese newspapers, Is more than
the nation can endure. Surely il
would not occur to sober intelligence
70 think that a nation so overwhelmed
financially would wantonly seek war
against any other power. especially
one like the United States.
War Is not the way Japan Is looking

MExICO's ARMY.
Much work In Prospect for . Weak
Institution,
Indianapolis News.

Indianapolis News.
In Mexico the regular army IL about a.
900 strong on peace footing. In addition
are the "rurales,' or mounted police. Pos
sibly the army has been increased since
the revolution, but this Is not publicly
known The 'insurrectos" claim 10 have
from 5000 to 10000 In the field. Their war
fare Is OF the guerrilla sort and not easy
to end. They avoid facing the government
troops In the open when possible; when this
is impossible the government has always
been victorious. But after an experience
OF this kind the rebels simply fail back
farther into the mountains and away from
the railroads. cutting Off small detaoh-
ments, burning bridges ralding store depots
and the like. It IL a kind OF hostiiities
hard TO cope with. II wastes troops, keeps
the government uneasy, stlrs up trouble
in the disturbed sections and leaves whole
sections in apprehension. Also, OF course,
1t makes outside investors uneasy, and so
increases pressure on the Mexican govern
ment. Ths region OF the outbreaks 10
favorable TO such methods OF warfare. The
provinces Of chihuahua and Sonora have
large area, a sparse population, a desert
or mountainous country rugged and arid,
difficult for pursuit Of military operations.
II is much such a problem as we had in
the Indian campaigns in Arizona. The
difference Is that the area is larger and
that the rebels have the sympathy Of a
large part Of the resident population.
Under such conditions II is easy 70 under
stand why the present state of affairs has
continued so long and how difficult it will
be to remedy. One has only to recur TO
the many historic campaigns OF invasion
In Spain and to the time the English had
in finally breaking the power of the Beers
in South Africa to feel that the situation
may be serious enough and that IL we have
to deal with it. IT will be no holiday jaunt
that too, with summer coming on. II il
an entirely different thing from invading
a country where the government and the
people as whole, are involved and cor
ptitute the enemy.

The Land show 1dea.

IL is gratifying to note the spread
OF interest in the land show idea and
to find that New York is to have one
Of these expositions at Madison Square
garden next November. II will ap-
pareDtly be conducted along much the
same lines as the shows in Omaha,
Chicago and Pittsburg that have made
such distinctive successes. The same
general purpose that actuates the
Omaha Land show underlies the en-
terprise to be held in New York-no
to stimulate land speculation, but to
attract people TO the land The slo-
gan of the eastern show will be Back
to the Soil.' Il has for its sponsors
such men as James J. Hill, Lew w.
Hill, Horace Havemeyer, Gustav
Pabst and other railroad and indus
trial men, and It is interesting to note
that some of the photographs being
used in the publicity Of this show
we're taken in Omaha during the corn
shows given here, in which the Hills
manifested such active interest.
1t cannot help but be matter of
satisfaction to the west to know that
Il has sounded the keynote to this
great movement and has set an ex-
ample which the great eastern cities
feel impelled TO follow. To be sure,
the Hills are interested in the devel-
opment of Canada as well as the
northwestern part of the United
States, but the important fact is they
are interested in development and
are exerting their great powers toward
| that end. IL matters not at all to the
people of this country what sections
are specially aimed at in these move
ments, so long as the one object OF
empire-building is kept faithfully in
the front Of every such enterprise
We are interested alike in the devel-
opment of the whole country and land
shows in various sections will con.
tribute to that end.
The pioneers in these shows de-
serve credit for awakening the big
railroad and industrial interests of the
country from indifference to the i'm
portance Of aggressive development
work. Already we have seen that al
the people need is to have their at
tention properly directed to the great
opportunities the west offers. There
need be no fear that those states i'm
mediately touched by the influences
of the Omaha Land show will not ge
their share Of the accretions Of popula
ton and new wealth. The various in
huences reaching out from Chicago
Omaha, St. Paul and New York can
not help but blend into one gigantic
power for the good of the whole west
Special potency is given to the enter
prise out here by the subsequent or
ganization of the Western Develop
ment association, which unites tn,
great sisterhood of western states il
the movement and equaliSes the dis
tribution of advantages.
