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

Fron\ ignorance to tbe highest power; from the
tallow dip to the fierce light that beats upon
thrones; from humility to grandeur; L incoln ’ s
walk was always that of a mddest struggler who
was sincere in every thought and ambition, and
who loved well “every man and bird and beas|.”
He reached the heights by virtue of his grasp of
public issues, and the plain solution he found for
them. He had the genius to cope with the great
est problem the Anglo Saxon race has ever faced,
and he had a heart that solved it to the satisfac
tion of all the ages. So great and so simple, he
will live forever in song and: story, and though at
the head of all the Armies of his country, he will
be loved most for his gentleness and his desire for
peace.
