vast, rich, conquerable provinces
and dependencies that make up the
Celestial Empire.
For the last score of years crisis
has followed crisis in the Far East,
with the United States generally
standing aloof, commenting freely,
as is our way, and from time to time
throwing the weight or our political
influence into the scale on one side
or another, but only once, during
the Boxer Rebellion, Interfering in
the situation with actual military
force.
A little over year ago, however,
we sent small detachment Of troops,
between 1000 and 5000, to Siberia,
and the peculiar circumstances that
have developed there have Gre
ated an international situation that
might sooner or later become exceed
lngly grave. japanese statesmen are
worried over the development of i'll
feeling between America and their
country, and some Americans who
nave been closely watching the trend
OF events are likewise concerned and
are striving to temper the irritation
ana at the same time find a solution
OF the problem satisfactory to Japan,
TO China and to the United States.
japanese Troops Enter
In 1917, after the collapse of Rus
sla, when the Bolsheviki liberated
hundreds of thousands of German
troops imprisoned in Siberia, thus
cutting off the Czecho-Slovak forces
mat had been organized to fight the
Germans, and were endeavoring to
make their way across the vast
North Asia plains to the Pacific
coast, the Allied governments ap-
pealed to the japanese to send an
army ;uto Siberia; but, America
having recently entered the war,
resident Wilson refused to give his
consent for many months. Finally
lie came to special arrangement
with the Japanese government, each
agreeing to send a similar number
OF soldiers to Asiatic Russia.

TW0 Ansuers to Question

In answer to the question the
statement of missionaries-who live
more intimately than other foreign
ers with the people-is generally
this: Give the Chinese twenty
years more of independence and they
will take care of themselves.v Mis-
slonaries to China are, as rule,
confident Of the ability of the
Chinese to work out their own saliva
ton, believing they are now on the
eve of great development. On the
other hand, business men who live
and work in China are discouraged
regarding them and often fear that
their fate will be one Of subsection.
The truth is probably the mean be-
tween the two. Certainly, if all

China's attempts at modern edu.
cation have failed lamentably, 50
that the mission schools and col
leges are practically the only sources
OF modern education operating there
to-day. The result is that the white
men, despised less than twenty years
ago and the subjects then of vicious
attacks and sometimes wanton
cruelty, are to-day the hope of the
new republican government, which
IS still, unfortunately. rent with re-
bellion and discord.
The aggressions Of Japan in
China have been persistent, and, ac-
cording TO the opinions of some able
Chinese and foreign observers, the
control of China by Japan is but

Some of Japan's excuses are:
The danger of renewed white
aggression on defenceless China: the
lncapacity of the Chinese govern

within the last five years.
Missionaries and other residents
of China say that against this sort
OF thing there is a feeling of criti-
clSm arising in cities like Pekinc
and the treaty ports, where forciyn-
ers have lived for many years and
spread their better influence: but
neither public opinion nor the law
has yet developed to such a point
that this officer was prevented from
donning his uniform and returning
to his beat the following day. With

years to let their daughters feet de.

How soon will the development of
China take place, and under what
ausplces-under Chinese leaders or
under some foreign tutelage or sub
lection? This is question, as writ
ings for the last quarter of a cen.
tury will show, that has long been
debated by students of the problem
of East Asia. The break up of
China, the bankruptcy of China, tire
Russian encroachment on China. the
japanese domination of China and
similar themes have inspired trav
oilers and writer's to prognosticate
for many years.

A REAL LEMON


., Fred Stoeckert is now IN a position to
hand his dearest enemy real lemon,
one Of his own raising, and at the same
time prove to all the skeptics of the
country that Minnesota is the very
center of the land of sunshine and flowers
and fruit, for doesn't he have the un-
mistakable evidence of this fact in the
fruit he himself raises here in New Ulm?
Mr.. Stoeckert has lemon tree that
produces fruit that is certainly remark
able, would be considered so even in
sunny California. He is exhibiting a
lemon weighing one pound and three
ounces and measuring thirteen inches in
circumference one way and IA inches the
other way around. The texture of the
skin is fine and firm. OF the inside we
were not given glimpse but Mr..
Stoeckert says the fruit will make him
several lemon pies. The flower from
which this fruit grew bloomed in May
and it took nine months for the fruit to
mature. There were other blossoms but
their fruit did not mature.

BIG "HAUL" AT SHERMAN

One of the biggest "hauls'' of liquor
N a long time was taken in charge a
couple Of days ago at Sherman, small
town south of Pipestone Two men,
whose homes are said to be in Sioux
Falls; S. D., drove into Sherman with a
bob sleigh loaded with 100 quarts Of
,Hhiskey and twenty gallons Of alcohol,
which they had brought from Springfield
The men drove thru as far as Sherman
without arousing the suspicion # any
Of the police authorities, but when in
that town their sleigh became stuck, and
it was necessary for one of the men to
go to Sioux Falls to obtain help. The
man remaining to guard the treasure in
the sleigh aroused the suspicion of the
Sherman marshal, who, upon investiga-
ton, found the liquor stored under
straw and hay ..
The marshal placed the one man under
arrest, and wired instructions to hold
the other man at Sioux Falls. Both
are now in Jail in default of 81 900 bonds
each, charged with bringing liquor into
dry territory Free Press.

OS1EOPATHS IN SESSION

DR. III. C. Edmis son was elected presi-
dent of the Southern Minnesota Osteo-
pathic association for the coming year
at. the convention which was held at
Faribault, Mimi, last Saturday. Many
physicians from all over the state were
in attendance and many interes ing
questions were discussed, chief Of which
was the present influenza EPIDEMIC,
which from past experience we know will
be with us for two or three years. TWAS
wonderful to hear the reports of the
osteopaths from thruout the state, many
of whom have had from three to four
hundred cases, with about one per cent
of deaths and very few pneumonia cases.
The general opinion was that the cause
of the epidemic was the weakened condi-
ton of the people Of the world, due to
the long ccr t'nued strain of the war, for
it is a well known fact that fear kills
more people than the influenza does and
people and physicians who are not
afraid of the flu and keep themselves in
good general health do not get it.
