"I-guess-not!" remarked the Wes
terner decidedly; while the New Yorker
smiled that same old smile of his that
never arot sbove his eves.
"The result would be, sah, that the
English and American navies combined
would wipe Japan off the waves within
ninety days, while the Jap army in Man
churia would have to surrender to the
Russian without firin a shot, so as to
get something to eat."
"Then Japan and America will never
go to war 7 asked the Westerner.
"The United States and England must
fight Russia and Japan some day for the
control of the Pacific and Asia," mur

cigar smoke curl lazily from between

"Certainly," replied the New Yorker,
coolly, and that la why every civiliza

Indian race went down before the white
