KOHHAX SIGNFOST
R situation
Til which has
turned the
eyes of the world
upon Korea was
bound to come
sooner or later
Like the signpost
shown In the illus
tration at the be
ginning of this ar
ticle Korea is very
much out of date
Signposts such as
that portrayed in
the picture are
common features of
the landscape In Korea and there are
multitudes of other things which look
strange to a visitor from America
Their quaintness in the eyes of those
accustomed to up to date ways consists
in the fact that they are from two to
three thousand years behind the times
It was natural enough that the con
querors of Russia should insist on
some changes in the country which
had come within their sphere of in
fluence
It was tho action of tho ex emperor
Yi Hiung in sending a derogation to
The Hague peace conference just as
if Korea had been a sovereign power
and in instructing the delegates to
make a protest there against Japanese
pretensions in Korea that brought
about the crisis in the affairs of the
little empire Japan regarded this ac
tion as inconsistent with the status of
Korea as a Japanese protectorate The
dispatch of Viscount llayashi to Seoul
quickly followed and the crisis was
precipitated resulting in the abdication
of Emperor Hi Yiung and the adop
tion of a new treaty between Japan
and Korea under which the Japanese
resident general Marquis Ito as the
administrative agent of Viscount Haya
shi became virtually ruler of the coun
try Viscount Tadasu llayashi and
Marquis Ito are the authors of the
new treaty Viscount llayashi Is Jap
anese minister of foreign affairs He
is perhaps the foremost diplomat of
his nation It was he who negotiated
GENERAL- HASEGAWA KOREAN BOYS AT
SCHOOL
the Anglo Japanese treaty of alliance
one of the most important diplomatic
agreements of modern times The vis
count was Japanese minister at the
court of St James at the time lie
was recalled from England to take
the foreign affairs portfolio when the
present cabinet headed by Marquis
Saionji took office The viscount was
born in 1S50 near Tokyo and he op
posed the mikado in the struggle be
tween the emperor and the shogunate
After the unification of the empire
he was sent to England to study polit
ical science and familiarize himself
with Anglo Saxon civilization He
rose in the service of the government
until in 1S95 he was made a baron
for his part in the revision of the
treaties with western powers He was
minister to China and afterward to
Russia and in 1S99 was transferred
to London
lieutenant General LTasegawi who
is in command of the Japanese troops
in Korea and virtually in control of
all armed forces in the country was
prominent In the war against Russia
Lie was then m
command of the
imperial guards di
vision in the op
erations of General
Kurokis army in
Manchuria
According to tra
dition the founder
of Korean nation
ality was the Chi
nese noble Ki tse
who is said to have
left China with
5000 followers in
1122 B C The au
thentic history of discount hayashi
the country dates from its annexation
to China In 10S B C It split into
three princedoms and about 9G0 A- D
that of Koryu came to the front It
recast the administration tupon the
Chinese model The present dynasty
dates from 1392 It was in part to
prevent Korea from falling into the
hands of Russia that Japan went to
irar with that power Everything in
the Hermit Nation is antiquated but
the old conditions are already passing
away with the advent of Japanese In
