Recent anti-Japanese agitation has brought about a renewal of the loose talk as to the probability of Japan making war on the United States. Even if Japans atti tude were unfriendly, which it is not; there could he no better answer to such nonsense than the state of Japanese finances. Japan stands burdened today with a national indebtedness of over $1,250,000,000. In other words, with a population of 5-lOths that of the United States its debt is l-3d greater. Its credit is virtually exhausted.. For a war with the United States Japan could not bor row one dollar in any foreign market; National bankrupt cy would he the speedy result. The Japanese government, however lacking in common sense our own jingoes may be, has sufficient intelligence to foresee the ruinous consequen ces of war „with so rich and powerful a people. The’war with Russia bled Japan white. ‘ The drain in men and money was enormous, and the next generation, and proba bly later ones, will groan under the cost of dearly bought victories. The Japanese are relatively poor people, and of the revenues raised under a crushing system of taxation almost l-3d is required by the government to pay interest J We with to return our heartfelt thanks to all the friends who show ed their kindness toward us during the sickliest; and death of our lov ed husband and falbac.
