JAPAN IN SIBERIA.

| Japanese desire and necessity for ex-
pansion is bringing Japan into Siberia.
Japan is a powerful and military nation
which until her acquisition of Korea
had been confined to a few narrow
| islands. The impulse of expansion is
took great to resist. To illustrate by
natural example a nation with the
| elements and strength of growth like
| Japan is like a growing tree. It's roots
| must push out forced by the growth
| impulse behind them and it's trunk
itself that oppose it. So Japan, seeing
her opportunity match her policy and
her national impulse stretches her
roots toward Siberia. Once firmly fixed
there she will scarcely be to be up
rooted.
So far as the United States is con-
cerned it has not the right to deny
Japan her move toward Siberia. We
have our own Monroe Doctrine such as
! it is and assumed our rights in Cuba
and in Mexico. We have also granted
Japan her Monroe Doctrine" What
could we say il we desired to say any
thing and how would we say it and
with what would we support con-
tention that Japan shall not occupy
Siberia if she considers German agrees
sion dangerous to her very autonomy?
Japan, troubled lightly with con-
science and as greedy and shrewd as
a Greek merchant, has made the most
of her assistance. She was ready to
chose the Russians out Of China. She
jumped at the excuse her alliance with
England offered. She has demanded
and received from England concessions
and compensation for all she has ever
done for that country in war or in
peace. The move into Siberia is mercy
a delayed movement. She would have
taken it before had she found herself
strong enough after the Jap-Russ war.
AGAIN Japan mas SelZeO ner op-
pcrtunity.
Japan may take Russia half way to
Petrograd. If Germany should be sue
cessful in grabbing the other half it
is not beyond the forecasts of able
writer's and observers OF world politics
that a japanese German alliance in
the future might change the face of the
world. But. today as the situation
stands there is nothing to do but let
Japan follow her purposes.
And in the outlook however serious
Europe is more vitally interested than
we. For We have the wide seas as bull
warks and mighty country that will
be in position to defy invasion after
this war is done.

CAN'T HIT US MUCH HARDER.

The Hampton Chronicle asserts that
the Times Republican recently com
pared the Taxpayers league to the
traitorous Nonpartisan league Of North
Dakota and then it seeks to defend the
former league but the Times Republi-
can did not say that the Nonpartisan
league was traitorous or that the loyal
|citizens Of one We're necessarily 60
ing to join the other. What the Times
Republican did say was that when Jim
Pierce, Of the Iowa Homestead, discov-
cred that the Nonparisan league could
raise several hundred thousand dollars
for its cooperative store enterprises
and promotion purposes he would con-
slider it movement Of great political
promise and would desert the Tax
payers league for the more modern ma
chine. Well that was merely a guess,
OF course, but it has since been given
the dignity of prophecy by the appear
ance Of Pierce and Speaker Pitt and
an officer Of the northern organiza ton
Nonpartisan league.
What the T.-R. did say, however, was
that our taxes for state purposes have
been doubled since Pierce and Pitt
worked the Taxpayers league against
bogus bond issues two years ago and
that the Nonpartisan league could
hardly hit us any harder than that.
The only danger of it is in the plat
form of the Nonpartisan league in
North Dakota which is asking the
voters of that state TO amend their
state constitution so as to permit state

Well, the letter box on the corner
didn't run away last night and get lost
in Brooklyn. so today's story got down
in time for the newspaper man to print
it tonight, and I'm very glad 1t did,
for I'm going to tell YOU right away
what happened to Uncle Lucky and lit
tie Billy Bunny.
You see, after supper they played a
game of penochle. and after Uncle
Lucky had won thirty-three games and
a half it was time to go to bed. so he
blew out the electric lights and turned
off the steam, and pulled down the
shades and oh, dear, me! what else
did he do? oh, yes, he winded, mean,
he wound. the Old Grandfather's Clock
i'm the hall, and after that he and Billy
Bunny hoped upstairs and got on
their pajamas, and then they hoped
into bed. and then they both had the
same dream. Wasn't that strange!
For never heard Of any one who had
the same dream, at least at the same
time. that somebody else did unless IL
was a patent for something or other
and that doesn't count, you know!
Well as soon as those two little rab-
bits were sound asleep the Dream Man
came in through the keyhole of the front
door and went upstairs. And then ne
said to himself. I'll give Uncle Lucky
a dream and Billy Bunny, too and, just
to see what happens I'll give them the
very same dream"
So he took off his little peeked nat
and waved his fairy wand three times
and hall, and then in came the dream
just like a pink cloud, and half OF II
went over to the old gentleman rabbits

Topics of the Times

The order suppressiDg the residences
and next OF kin of soldiers killed or
wounded in battle should be i'm
mediately reversed. There is no good
reason offered why mothers and wives
should sit in an agony of suspense
when the probabilities are that the
German war office is fully informed as

rate the names and addresses are pub
Ished as soon as the newspapers can
dig them out from the regimental lists
and the news thus made public But
mistakes will occur and the delay alc

who await the aftermath of battle.
Captain Felix Won Luckner, COM
mander Of the German raider seems to
be a foeman worthy Of American steel
His capture of British ship and bold
dash for freedom is one of the daring
incidents of the war. How Inundated
brave man lie that must be when he
considers the outrages inflicted upon
the helpless by his country.
The Metropolitan magazine is to be
examined before it is permitted the
mails. Perfectly proper as far as it goes
but why not an examination OF certain
socialistic penny screeds that are ped

ing discomfort and disloyalty?
And they really say that old Uncle
Gilbert Haugen is facing campaign
wherein he must actually fight for his
congressional life. Well, our L. C. H.
rest from his ceaseless labors for his
country. Maybe a vacation wouldn't
hurt him.
With the bright weather the autos
come out and in their exuberance too
many drivers speed up as an express
sion of delight. Those who get above
the limit should have their high spirits
and their high speed curbed by little
magisterial treatment.

not etiquette is the impelling motive.

candidate but on dry platform can he
shepherd back the democratic flock

can candidate last time?

through the door and crept into bed
with Billy Bunny.
And what do you think that little pink
dream was! Well, you just keep on
reading this story and you'll find out in
less than 1--WE hundred short seconds.
1t was all about a big cabbage patch
where the cabbages grew free for every
body, and as nobody knew anything
about it, Uncle Lucky thought he was
the only one who knew, and of course
as Billy Bunny had the same dream, he
thought the same.
Oh, the cabbage patch ds smiling
And waving in the breeze,
And the cabbage heads are noddinS
And bowling to their knees,
And it's great big secret,
And no one knows the way.
SO I'll have all the cabbages
I'll want for many day.
And then the dream flew away, ana
in the morning Uncle Lucky said to
Billy Bunny: II had a lovely dream
last night. Maybe I'll tell 1t to YOU II
you're good bunny"
And then the little rabbit said: I
had lovely dream last night and may
be TIL tell it to you IL you'll promise to
tell me yours" 50 Uncle Lucky told his
dream, and then the little rabbit began
to laugh and laugh. why, that's just
what dreamed" he said, and at first
