Mischief Making.

1t would be impossible TO conceive
anything more mischievous than the in
depreciation which the Leninite organ in
Petrograd gives to the secret clauses
of the Russo-Japanese treaty OF July B
1917. Here is an instrument aimed di-
rcctly at Germany, and at Germany only,
and vet we are told in flaming headlines
that Russia and Japan have concluded
an alliance against Great Britain and the
United States 1t is monstrous. Here is
the vital clause in the secret agreement
THE contracting parties recognize
that the interests of either side demand
the defence of China from political dom
nation by any third power whatsoever
hostile intentions toward Rus
STA and Japan, and therefore undertake
whenever circumstances necesstate, to
enter into open relations based on full
confidence, in order conformity to take
the necessary steps to prevent the ad-
vent in China of such a state OF affairs.
What third power seeks, or is likely to
seek, political domination in China, and
what third power cherishes, or is like
" to cherish, at the same time, hostile
against Russia and Japan?
Not Great Britain; certainly not the
United States.
Could anything be clearer than that
this secret agreement is the compile
ment of that concluded between Wis
count Ishii and Secretary lansing We
have conceded Japan's special interest
n China. What agreements she makes
with Russia in this connection do not
concern us. 1t is time to arouse pub
ic opinion against these malicious eff
'orts to embroil the United States and
Japan. If the two countries ever do get
nto trouble with each other, it will be
he fault of those mischief makers, who
.eep seeing perils wherein one exist. There
$ no clash of interest between the Unit
d States and Japan: no difficulties
which cannot be smoothed over by good
will on both sides. We can always take
