japan must possess herself of
3?ort Arthur. Apart from con
federations founded upon the
aiainest maxims of war there are
dflier and more cogent reasons
-wfoy she must reduce this strong
Ikiold. So long as it is held by
R ussia, or for that matter by any
sgressive power, Manchuria and
Sorea will be territory hostile to
Jytjpan, serving as a base from
' Which hei peace and prosperity
ifilf1 he continually menaced
Zand her national existence ulti-1
tacately destroyed. The Japanese
si understand this and regard
'Sficcsontest as involving, not sim
ply their political independence,
i&at -Sheir very existence as a na
tion. With Port Arthur in her
-Xraspppan may secure these for
csil time. She can say to Eng
Xtand, Germany, and France; "m
.fiilae .interests of the world's com
saraesce guarantee the absolute
aneictrality of this section of Man -r3rjria
and I will give up mili
tary -hold of it." The Japanese
Clave bten quick to learn the arts
of diplomacy. Theie is no doubt
i i heir statesmen and diplomats
.aee ihat the possession of Port
.Arthur will enable them to
-icfaieve and to secure through di
iplomacy everything they regard
las necessary to their peace and
-security.
These considerations explain
the fierce and persistent assaults
-i.made by the Japanese troops
v upon the Russian positions. Al
:ceady these assualts have cost
. rlieai quite 30,000 men, and may
yet cost as many more. This
scmghty sacrifice of human life is
fseroicly made and must stand
; testified in view of the issues at
retake.
Assaults on a fortified and re
; solute enemy are always bloody
.affairs for the assailants and are
not always successful. Our own
civil war presents numerous ex
.amples of bloody and fruitless as
isaults on fortified positions.
Barnside's repeated assaults on
tfee stone-wall protected confed
. erates at Fredricksburg in Dec,
:xS6z cost him 13,000 men and
-defeat. Grant's assaults on Vicks
&urg were bloodily repulsed.
Xfoa sacrificed the flower of his
jtrmy in a fruitless assault on
3teade's position which had but
rf-5se -scant protection of hastily
formed and slight breasworks.
Orant lost 10,000 men in twenty
intimites by assualt on the confed
erate works at Cold Harbor.
JPersisteut and quickly repeated
issstmlts by vastly superior num
bers ultimately succeed. It is
6y this means the Japanese seek
o take Port Arthur and they
will doubtless succeed.
