PUBLIC FREE LIBRARY NOTES
It is sovoral weeks now since war be
gan between Japan and Russia The
papers have been filled daily with ac
counts of naval batiles and the trans
portation and mobilization of troops
Tabulated statements havo appeared
showing the relative strength of tho two
nations the resources of each the num
ber of their inhabitants and statistics
of various sorts concerning the peoples
and the countries But in all the vast
volume that has been written we have to
look far and long to find the reasons for
such lavish expenditure of men and
money Wo discover the answer to our
question in one brief paragraph that
may easily escape our attention
Russia has been ono of the most ag
gressive nations in the world Com
paratively young in years she has rapid
ly extended her boundaries until her pos
sessions are more extensive than those
of any other country Russia has had
wars and many of them but the acces
sions of territory have been made for
the most part by bloodless warfare or
at least by an expenditure of blood
wholly incommensurate with the terri
tory gained She has gone her way un
checked or nearly so because she has
until now annexed lands inhabited by
people who are little better than barbar
ians One secret of her great strength
is that her possessions are inaccessable
to the other powers of the world They
are not scattered as are the colonies of
other European countries but lie in a
compact area When she reached the
Pacific it was along the northern coast
There were better harbors than hers
to the south in Corea and Manchuria
and she stretched forth her arms to
grasp the prizes that she believed to be
within her reach
In 1891Japan went to war with China
Japan coming off victorious was about
to appropriate part of the losing nations
territory to her own uses as was her
right but the nations of Europe inter
posed to prevent the despolition of China
In 1900 the Boxer uprising in China
gave Russia the opportunity she had
long looked for She sent troops into
Manchuria ostensibly to protect her in
terests there When the war was over
and the necessity for protection was
passed she continued to occupy Man
churia Not only that but she began
to move upon Corea a country in which
she had neither moral nor legal right to
be and in which Japan did have certain
commercial privileges and the right to
protect them by military force The
situation was one that might well be
calculated to anger Japan Japan had
fought for and fairly won a certain prize
which the other nations did not permit
her to retain yet here was one of those
very nations that had helped to rob her
taking by stealth what should have
been and rightly was hers Japan was
righteously indignant She protested
against Russias action and demanded
that Russia should guarantee the inde
pendence and territorial integrity of
Corea Russia agreed to assent to this
proposal on condition that Japan should
use no part of Corea for strategic pur
poses and that she should preserve the
full freedom of navigation of the straits
of Corea To these terms Japan would
not consent and the war followed
Was Japan justified in assuming the
attitude she has taken By every rule
of international law applicable to the
situation she was She had certain
vested interests that were threatened
with destruction She had the right to
protect them Japan is small in area
Her islands are densely populated She
has used Corea for colonization purposes
as she might do The independence of
Corea was essential to Japan One man
may take anothers life in self defense
One nation may do whatever is necessary
to preserve her national existence
Public sentiment in the United States
preponderates largely in favor of Japan
This however is entirely aside from the
right and the wrong involved We be
lieve it will be to our advantage to have
Japan win in the present conflict Self
interest dominates conscience We can
readily persuade ourselves that that
which profits us is right Our trade
with Japan which has only one third
tho population of Russia is twice as
great as our trade with the larger coun
try due largely to the fact that Russia
is surrounded by a high tariff wall while
Japan has a low tariff schedule The
argument is uspd that if Japan wins
new markets will be opened for our pro
ducts But in the prospect of immedi
ate gains do we not lose sight of the
Yellow Peril Is this not something
for us to take into account in bestowing
our sympathies
Colds Cause Pneumonia
One of the most remarkable cases of a
cold deep seated on the lungs causing
pneumonia is that of Mrs Gertrude E
Fenner Marion Indiana who was en
tirely cured by the use of One Minute
Cough Cure She says The coughing
and straining so weakened me that I
ran down in weight from 148 to 92
pounds I tried a number of remedies
to no avail until I used One Minute
Cough Cure Four bottles of this won
derful remedy cured me entirely of the
cough strengthening my lungs and re
stored me to my normal weight health
and strength Sold by LWMcConnell
