SieSshau hoDsoh mas been ma1ng dictions made by Hobson during the last ten years about what Japan was to do to the United States come true. one of the little brown men would be sitting in the White House as ruler. after all the Americana had been killed in battle. Here is the American article:
 Some day-an4 no man knows how soon-the ynen who cry lingo: et the statesmanship that would prepare our country for defense are going to call upon the mountains tc fall and cover them.
 "A man may not fec that he Is going to die; nevertheless, amid the chances of death the prudent man deems it his duty to his family to take out policy of insurance
 Many good men in this country may not believe that we are on the verge of war with Japan, but amid the many and convincing omens of war no man will deny that it is wise statesmanship to prepare for war in case it should come.
 Every nation on earth except our
 VII believes that Jauan is preparing --and has already usepared flor a var with the United States. Every
 7ar strategist in Germany, in France. in England and in Russia who has written anything along this
 inc has written down the policy of early war between the United States and Japan. The Paris Temps, g high authority on foerign affairs. de- 'clares that Japan has entered into a secret treaty with a Sparffsh-Ameri- can republic inconsistent with the terms of that republics treaty with the United States, and that South American republic is building dread noughts which cannot be needed for herself.

 Count Ernest Reyentlow. Ger many's most noted strategical expert and writer on military subjects, has published prepared essay, giving the reasons and conditions which make war between Japan and the United States inevitable.

And every strategist who pre- diets war. and every conmmentator who elaborates the prediction, differ. ing as they may upon. other things. are a solemn unit of opinion as to Japan's magnificent preparedness and the iamentable unpreparedness of the United States for the possible coming war
 Congressman Hobson. naval ex. pert. proven hero and profound stu dent. declared on the floor of con. gress that Japan has already financed the coming war in advance. and has the money already in the treasury for the work.
 "Ex-President Roosevelt declared that the Japanese soldier is without a superior among the nations. The Pacific coast is filled with them. They have maps of every square acre on California soil.
 There has never been a logical or sincere attempt to answer what the New York American and the watchmen upon our towers haze tried to do to arouse our country to prepare in peace for the war that may always possibly come. Tie ar gument is clear and convincing of the danger that is always possible and always imminent.
 Tt is not so much question of 1cockeyness' nor any mere pride of sentiment that will move Japan to war It is a matter of vital busin. ess It is simply commercial self protection. which she has clearly
