Proof of Intrigue.

I'VE had positive proof that the Ger

OF the so-called yellow peril had besn
busying himself to estrange Japan from
America.
Now. gentlemen. ! beg you TO glance
at the text OF the Anglo-Japanese al
lance treaty. The stipulations, SO far
as they go, contain no direct bearing
on an event taking place in Europe.
Japan. had she 80 elected, might have
kept herself aloof without an ostensble
breach Of faith with England.
with her meagre natural resources
and the poor state OF her finances and
foreign trade, what necessity was there
for Japan to embark on a perilous war
against a formidable foe?
Japan, however, took the matter In
n more conscientious way. In the opinion
OF her statesmen the dominant purpose
OF the alliance was the peace of the
Far East. and the peace Of the Far East
In their opinion could not be maintained
the moment war broke out between
Great Britain and Germany. the two
great colonial Powers in Asia.
whatever. then, may have been the
wording OF the treaty. the spirit of the
alliance was clear beyond doubt, and
my Government had no hesitation ir

sWers Call to Missouri.

A meeting of the congregation of
the Westminster Presbyterian church
was called last week, and the resigna-
ton of DIR. Ralph Ward. pastor, was
rendered. Doctor Ward is to go to the
First Presbyterian church of Warrens-
burg. Mo.

lowing resolution:
Rev. Ralph Ward, D. D., our pastor
since September, 1904, being about to
leave us to accept a call in another
field, we wish to express our deep re-
greet at his going and our appreciation
of him as pastor, preacher, scholar
and friend. He has given to this par
ish fourteen of the best years of his
life, and his pastorate has been a sue
cessful one, as we count success The
missionary spirit has not been allowed
to lag, Bible study has been promoted.
Christian service has been accented
The membership of the church is con-
staptly increasing, finances kept up
more easily the past year than ever
before, notwithstanding the many ex-
traordinary calls for funds for war OBJ
jects. We assure Doctor Ward of our
love for him and that our prayers will
follow him for success in his new field.
