On week : . . . . . . .$ 15 One month 50 One year 6 00 SATURDAY DECEMBER 10, 1898 m OVR DVTY TO THE ORIEXT. It is now thirt3--seven yr3 since William II. Seward, as secretary rf , , . j " stale, gave these instructions Id ear minister to-Japan: "Will yoil by j an equal, Justj and honorable dontluct of your missio', make the people of Japan respect not only the institu tions of your own country but the institutions of Christianity ond west ern civilization." Our new duty to the Orient could not be better ex pressed in one sentence than in the words of the great statesman who during the most critical period of our history filled the office now held by John Hay. In 1861 Japan was more civilized in its way than the Philippines are now, but it would be difficult to con ceive a more difficult national task than the removal of the prejudice that the island empire then felt toward the institutions of Christianity and western civilization. The object which our minister was ordered to keep in view and the end toward which he was to work seemed remote in the extreme. But the instructions given were followed. No pains were spared to influence the people of Japan through just and honorable treatment. Astonishing results were obtained. Japan is now reckoned among the civilized nations. Chris tianity has been accepted and is the religion of many thousands of the people, especially in the more intel ligent class, and our general western civilization is making prodigious strides forward. Japan is now our next-door neighbor in the far East, and nothing could induce her people to go back to the conditions which prevailed before the Amencan gov ernment ordered Commodore Perry to compel the Japanese government to open the port of Yokohama to the commerce of the world. What Perry began statesmanship carried forward. What Dewey made possible statesmanship must make actual. Diplomacy has very nearly completed its part in .defining the Jincs within which our duties must be done in the Orient of today. The rest must be accomplished by the American administrator, the Ameri can sckool teacher, the American merchant, and the American mission ary. They are the men on whom lies the burden of fulfilling the duty of our civilization to that part of the 1 1 - uli w '.eh destiny lias east onV i.t. They are arresting girls in Luzon, U. S. A., for carrying concealed cameras. Why the girls should con ceal them it is .lifficult to explain How tbey can conceal them, if the pictures of Luzon girls we see in the papers are faithful, is a mystery. Eugland seems to be well pleased with the president's message. We find it less difficult than formerly to please England. The times have changed. Also the conditions. It seems sad that France should continue to be wrapped up in local troubles when there are so many op portunities afforded her of doing mischief abroad. ( Euiope, generally speaking, is reconciled to American expansion. Just as a man who has the dyspepsia becomes reconciled to it, sometime?. SlOO Kewarrt SIOO. The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease tbnt science has been able to cure in all its etcges, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive care known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh bein'. a constitu tional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the disease and giving the patient strength by build ing up the constitution and assisting What is tbe. use of making a better article than your competitor il yon can riot get a better price for HT Ans.Aa there la ho difference in the price the public will buy only the. better, so that while our profits may be smaller on a single scale they will be much greater in the aggregate. How can you get the publfc to know yonr-makeis the best?
