AUG 16. 1904 RUSSIA AND JAPAN The war between Russia and Japan has now been going ' on for six months. The world has amused itself guessing about the outcome, but the outcome seems as far ofl as it did last February. A .great many people .want the little brown men to whip the big bearded Russians, and there are others who think it would be better for the world ai large if Russia should come out on top. A great many Americans hate the Czar of Russia Nickolas be cause he emancipated 83,000,000 slaves the same year' that Lin coln emancipated 4,000,000. By some unexplainable whim, in the long and bitter conflict which the Czar of Russia has waged with the large land owners and tilled chiefs to make them treat their tenants aud employes more humanly, a great many Ameri cans have sided with the nobili ty. In the estimation of a great inany Americans, for the Czar of Russia to insist that the serfs predecessor emancipated be treated kindly and with fairness and given a chance to acquire homes of their own, is as great a political blunder aud social crime as it is in America to ad vocate a just and humane treat ment of the race that Lincoln emancipated. It is an assimu lalion of the hereditary aristoc racy in America with that of Ruseia that accounts for much of the dislike evinced in the 1 uniteo. otaies against me uzary more than is natural to hold ' against crowned heads. The fact is that since the approval of our homestead law by Lin coln, no ruler on earth bas ap proved laws which made it pos sible for as many hundreds of common people to secure homes as the present Czar of Russia has signed that gave land and money, to make homes with, to enable millions to become home owners. While the above is true of the Czar of Russia and places him at the head of European poten tates as a beneficiary of his sub jects, the reluctance of his titled subordinates to part with feudal rights which they had held for less than 1C0 years,' has so ham pered his will that reforms most cherished by him have been slow ol effectuation. The voluuteer acts of the Mi kado of Japan and all subordin ate, tilled officials in the empire, in 1871, when of their own mo tion they renounced aud abdi cated all feudal rights, privileges and emoluments which they had held and enjoyed for 700 years, stands without a parallel in the history of mankind The feudal idea, which the rulers of Japan had held power under for 700 years, was that the people exist ed for the glory uower and CURES OLD SORBS Wostmoreland, Kans.

The one these rulers chunged it for of their ou motion, is that the ruleis exist to serve the people and contribute to their happi ness.

Smith that Qrover Cleveland would make a magnificent and a winning race for Governor of New Jersey, in aid of Purker, are received bv the Sage of1 Princeton with a wink of the other. Mr Cleveland knows on which side his book is baited. On two occasions Mr. Bryan thought the ' Democratic party would win aud was wrong. This time he thinks it won't, and is right. The difference between a cir cus menagerie and political me nagerie lies largely in the fact that in the former the animals are always kept caged.
