H. Taklmorl, 'a subject of th mikado

letter from Tokio which gives sorn news
ot the war. .-The letter was received sev

events which are now convulsing the fat
ehsL' Mr..-Taklmorl, based his conclusions
on bis personal knowledge oi the situa
tion and the method of the Jap generals,
coupled with the fact set forth In the
letter, which emphaslred the reports pub

Mr. Taklmorl Is familiar with ths char
acter of the country In which the Jap
anese and Russian - armies are struggling
and he says that while the plans of the
Japanese are hidden from the publlo it Is
well understood by the Japanese that in a
general way the Intention and the ef
forts have been to strike simultaneously
two points at once. Some of these plans
have miscarried at times, but this has been
the result of unforeseen circumstances.
The letter says details from the front
are meager, owing to the censorship-which
prevails In the far east. News from Tort

The letter states reports brought from
various sources are to the effect that horse
and. mule flesh,. is about the only -meat
that can be' secured in the cltyi Of the
plans of ' the Japanese generals little is
known except that they are taking no
risks, "-but tha sentiment Is that Japan
never will give up the war so long aa.lt
can gat men to carry arms. Japan is. de
termined to get back the port from which
It feels It was unjustly deprived through
the machinations of Russia after the war
with China. Speaking from what he
knows of tha temper of the Japanese and
the situation as it appeals to him from
letters he has. received and from what
he has read of the situation, he thinks
Port Arthur can hold out but a few days.
He says: '
"Port Arthur has neither provisions, am
munition nor the men necessary to keep
up tha struggle, 1 and there Is no way that
the Russians can get help of any kind Into
the city. The final attack upon Port Arthur
and upon Kouropatkin's army will be sim
ultaneous. I am satisfied that this Is the
Intention. With Llao Yang. Mukden and
Port Arthur out of the way. the Japanese
will hold the key to tha entire situation.
Russia may prolong the war, but it can
move no fresh troops Into . the field In
winter, owing to the heavy snows. Victory
by Japan will emphasise the peace of
Corea. v
retlow Peril" Simple polities.
"The 'yellow peril.' of which so much has
been printed, Is a political cry. It was the
fear of a Muscovite peril which threatened
the peace and Integrity of China that
forced .Japan Into the war. America un
derstands this. It waa a cry raised to
turn publlo sentiment against the Japan
ese. It Is to maintain Manchuria's commer
cial and political Independence that Japan
Is fighting. Japan and China never can
mix, but the political and commercial In
dependence of the country could be blot
ted out and would eventually have been
obliterated If Japan had not thrown Itself
Into the breach. ''- 1 '
"Russia feels that It Is almost certain to
face .revolution if It Is defeated. It is im-
potslblo for Russia to press the Flnlanders
Into the struggle. They refuse- to take
HP. arms against the nation ta which their
sympathies turn. 1 Even the Russians them
selves are In no sympathy 'with the war.
The war presents the speetaete'of two op
posing forces fighting, trora-jliametrically
different positions one. stads on principle
ami the other on obligation?' ' . ,
Mr.- Taklmorl made .tha very Important
statement that sentiment Is growing In
Japan In favor of .mediation! He believes
that Russia understands Its condition now
and appreciates the utter hopelessness pf
the continuation of a struggle that has cost
Immense treasure on both sides, besides
frightful Ions of life. Japan has gnlned
advantages as a result of which lb can af
ford to ba generous, and the fee-ling- Is that
If a country like America would now step
In, Japan and Russia would both be con
tent to have the differences between the
countries decided by arbitration. , Vntll re
cently the Idea ot mediation has been an
tagonised on both sides.

Bee -Want Ada Produce JeeuUVe.-
' T Jiidee Bartlett'a Record. " ' "K
OMAHA, Aug, 30, 1SW'. To tho Editor of
The Bee: Through your, widely read paper
I desire to direct the attention of all who
intend to participate in Saturday's repub
lican primaries to a well deserved tribute
paid to Judge Bartlett in an article that
appeared In a recent number of the Omaha
Examiner.
Judge Bartlett was appointed to the dis
trict bench in the face of some opposition,
and yet, I think It fair to say, that since
he has been on the bench he has disap
pointed his enemies. I do not believe that
any of Judge Barjlett's enemies can point
to a single Instance since he. went upon
the bench where he has not done his best
to fairly balance "the scales."
Every one who knows him personally
likes him, and I believe that every one who
has watched his career on the bench will
say that he is entitled to a nomination at
tha handa of the party to whose success
he has so largely contributed in recent
years.
I attach the Examiner article and if you
have space would be glad if you would
reproduce It. A REPUBLICAN.
(From the Omaha Examiner.)
The attention of the republican electors
of the Fourth Judicial district is Invited to
the claims of Hon. E. M. Bartlett for the
nomination of Judge to fill the unexpired
term of Hon. I. F. Baxter, who resigned
as Judge to accept the position of United
States district attorney. When Judge Bax
ter resigned E. M. Bartlett waa appointed
to the vacant office.
Those who thought or predicted that
Judge Bartlett would carry his partisan
ship to the bench have been sadly disap
pointed. While a republican, he belongs to
no faction In his party. He has adminis
tered even-handed Justice, ably, fearlessly
and Impartially. No better Judge has pre.
sided upon the district bench In this state.
He haa been strictly nonpartisan on the
bench.
It has been the custom in this district
for a great many years for the party to
which an appointee as Judge belongs to
nominate him to All the unexpired term,
and this without opposition, and there ap
pears to be no reason why the republicans
of this district shOuld make any change
in this custom.
Judge Bartlett was first admitted to the
bar in Wisconsin. In 1874 In the state of
New York and In 1878 in Nebraska, at
which time he took up his residence in this
state. His abilities were speedily recog
nized, and soon he attained high standing
in his profession. During his residence in
Nebraska he has had part In the trials of
most of the more important cases in the
courts of Nebraska and In the federal
courta '
He Is a man of ripe legal knowledge and
haa an eminently Judicial mind. He Is a
gentleman of pleasing address, and In the
brief period that he has been upon the
bench haa demonstrated that he is an able
and impartial Judge.
Mr. Bartlett has rendered much service
to the party, both under the state and na
tional committees, and last year conducted
a successful fight for the seven Judicial
candidates of his party against strong op.
position within the ranks of his political
associates, and owing to his management
all of the four counties In the district, for
the first time In their history, were carried
by the republicans on that Issue.
The republicans of the district owe It to
the Judge to nominate him, because: First
and foremost, he is in every way qualified
to fill the position; second, by Drecmtant
he Is entitled to It; and. third, his services
to the party In the past make his claims
paramount to those of any other.

GETS IT FIRST TIME IN TWENTY YEARS
Ctalmlnatloa of Persistent Movement
Waged Under .Direction of County
Superintendent ' Bod well
'and Mr. McVaia.
For the first time in over' twenty years,
Omaha will, in December, entertain the an
nual meeting of the State Teachers' associ
ation. Heretofore these meetings have been
held in Lincoln, and they have been held
there for so many years that other cities
of the' state had despaired of seeing one
held anywhere else. .. . .
County Superintendent E. J. Bodwell has
been one of the most earnest workers to
bring the convention here, and through his
efforts a still campaign was begun months
ago to secure the desired end. Commis
sioner McVann of the Commercial club
likewise has had his shoulder to the wheel,
pushing hard for Omaha.
Members of the executive board favor
able to Omaha were secured, and at the
meeting of the board Thursday, Omaha re
ceived a majority of the votes, only one
ballot being cast in favor of Lincoln. The
dates ot the meetings are December 23,' 29
and 30. .
At the,. last two meetings held In Lincoln
over 1,800 educators were present, and it
Is believed the number will be exceeded this
time. A strong 'effort to this end Is to be
made and those In charge are confident of
success. The personnel of those In attend
ance at the. meetings Include-all sorts ot
educators from the teacher In the kinder
garten to the college professor.
The day sessions are devoted to the de
partments on science, mathematics, child
studies, library, temperance and other sub
jects of Interest In tho mental education of
tho child. Each section in which these
studies are taken up has Its own officers,
and the papers are presented by the best
minds In the association. The last two
days will be devoted to tha county superin
tendents' section, the primary section, tha
grammar school section and the high school
and the college sections.
For the first evening the officers of the
association have contracted for the ' Hun
garian orchestra. On the second evening
some noted speaker, possibly Dr. Lorlmer,
the noted divine of Boston, will deliver a
lecture, and for the third night tha asso
ciation already haa engaged Frank Rober
son, the traveler, writer and lecturer. . It
Is expected the afternoon sessions will ba
held In the high school, while the morning
and evening sessions will be held in one
of tha churches.

JUST GOT TOGETHER A LITTLE
One Maa Bandaged l la Police Coart
aad the Other la the
Hospital.
Joe Hutchlne of 4018 Pacific street had
only to close one eye last night when he
went to sleep, as the other had been ef
fectually closed for him by R. 8. Jensen
of 4311 Paclflo street, and Jensen had no
use for a nightcap, as the numerous band
ages with which his head was swathed
was -sufficient covering for the night air.
To these Inconveniences is added tha fact
of both men having their namea placed In
the select bock at the police station and
being charged with disturbing tha peace.
The two got Into a quarrel over a game of
pool and the bandages and the blind
"peeper" were the results. HutchJns is
said to have used a knife on Jensen's head
and Jensen Is said to have used his fist
In the coloring process.
Hutchlns appeared In police court for
trial and explained that Jensen had been
taken to the county hospital for treatment
The case was set for hearing next Tuesday
morning.
"Where did you hit Jensen?" asked Act
ing Judge Bachman of Hutchlns.
".Well, Judge, I Jilt him Just wherever I
could. He' Is a larger man.thanj arn and
I had to. defend myself'
'With Jensen in the hospital and yourself
all. bandaged up. It looks as If there might
haye been a fight at your place yesterday,"
added the Judge.
"Oh, no. Judge; we Just got together a
little bit," replied Hutchms. '
WATTLES FINDS PROSPERITY
Returns from Europe and Kew York
' Impressed with Good Times
" on Both Sides.
Q. W. Wattles has returned from a short
trip to Europe. He was accompanied by a
business associate, Sumner Wallace pf New
Hampshire, and spent nineteen days in
England and, France. Of this time fifteen
days were enjoyed in automobile rides
throughout the country.
"A few weeks spent in this way Is surely
to be recommended," said M.-. Wattles.
"Both France and England at this season
are In their best mcfcds, and the delights
of automoblllng in the former country are
great. The auto cars are numerous and
are perfected far beyond any of ours. One
of our trips, from Rouen to Paris, 106
miles, waa made In three hours and fifteen
minutes. On the same journey wo turned
out for a car traveling eighty miles an
hour, actual time.
"Both England and France show every
evidence of prosperity and the people seem
happy and contented. Financial affairs
abroad ae very satisfactory and there Is
no danger of a flurry. The impression Is
that If the Russo-Japanese war continues
long both parties to the conflict will have
to draw heavily on Europe and the United
States for war loans.
"As far as I was able to learn In New
York on my return there is not a cloud
In the financial sky here at home. Money
ratea are low In the east and probably
will remain so during the harvesting sea
son. The east is looking to the west and
hoping for the successful maturity of our
magnificent crops. It Is thought there that
If tha yield, Is good this year the west
will reach Its height of prosperity.
"I think the campaign haa less effect
upon commercial lines than any national
campaign in t the country has had. With
Parker's well-known views on the money
question, no financial problems are In
volved and no uncertainty felt on that
score. . ..
"A new tide of Immigration from Europe
haa set in toward our shores. Just as we
left England the steerage rate was cut
one half, or to, 00. and the ship, the Kaiser
Wllhelm II., was filled. Tho cabin list was
the largest ever brought over In a single
shlp-936 people. The trip was made within
fifty mlnutej of the record "
