"He does not look like a literary
man." There you have it, much re-

in '1iterary gossip" current and be-

look, to look literary, we are never
told. How he does look now that he
does not look literary, we are in
formed in a thousand phrases. To
get at the theoretic image we must
creep by the eliminations.
In earlier times it was difficult.
There can be no pretense that genius

CalifOrnia-Jnpan Squabble OF Import-
ance to NIL Caucasians. Says Editor.
LONDON. May 23.-That the Cali
fornia-Japanese dispute over the land
question is not exclusively California
matter, not exclusively even an Amer
lean matter, but that it is one of in
terest to the whole Caucasian world, is
the gist Of an article by its foreign
editor, Sir Valentine Chicol, which was
featured this week by the London
Times.
Chicol says: "The fears of the in
habitants of the Pacific slope are ex.
aggerated and premature but they are
not entirely groundless. No useful
purpose can be served by blind con-
domination of the tendencies of public
opinion in the Western states. They
do not spring so much from race ha,
tired as from the instinct of self pres
ervation, and II the present minor dis
pute Is composed, they will assuredly
recur. The time has come when Japan
is disposed to challenge the very es-
sence of the attitude of Western ma
tions toward Asiatics. She asks ad-
mittance to the comfy of nations on
equal TERMS"
Emphasizing one of the points made
by Chicol, the Times says editorially:
"Japan's challenge comes at a moment
fraught with peculiar danger" and
goes on to point out that most of the
wise elder statesmen of Japan are
dead: that the doctrine of the divinity
of the mikado is fading. and that a
"headstrong, excitable and inexperienc.
ed democracy" in Japan may easily
cause trouble for the world.
