A NEW TROUBLE IN THE
PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.
On the meeting of the plenipoten
tiaries of Russia and Japan at Ports
mouth, N. II.. a new impediment
has arisen which confirms one fact
that the peace negotiations as at pre
sent contemplated are all "red tape'
fuss an feathers, and ' diplomatic
palaver, and that the little brown
man is merely playing a part in the
roll of artful diplomacy.
China stalks upon the stage at this
late scene of the drama, and has is
sued a diplomatic note to the great
powers, both neutral and actively
billigirent, that she is interested in
the settlement of this war question,
and that she will recognize no con
elusion relating to her supremacy of
the province of Manchuria, and her
right and titleto the territory.
As Manchunais the original
casus belli, and was(he original
ground of dispute between Russia
and Japan, the importance of, this
claim of China will be recognized.
Formerly, a diplomatic notifica
tion from China would have been'
regarded as" a mere brutum fulmu,
and would have excited no emotion
but derision, but since this of Rus
sia and Japan, China has come to
the front, and acquired an import
ance as an ally of Japan that it has
not heretofore aspired to among
civilized nations.
Now, this may be a serious dipl
matic step of the Chinese Emperor
to protect bis rightful cl inu. on
Manchuria, or te may be the cat's
paw in the fable, in the hands of'
Japan, to prolong the war in which
she has won so much glpry. .
Wehink- that China's -claim to
Manchuria is ' a rightful, and she
b as been despoiled of her territory
by two ambitious neighbor.
In this aggressive contest of two
oontous nations for the possession
of land to which neither was entitled
China is naturally, and geographi
cally on the side of Japan.
Color is a great factor in human
affairs, and a Chinee and a Japanee
are of the same hue. Physical confor
mation partakes of the nature of
oolor, and the Mikado of Janan and
the "representative of the rising
spn" in China are both squint eyed,
knock kneed a.nd little footed, and
both are fatalists and idolaters in
religion.
Blood is stronger than water,
tney say, but a squint eye and a
brown complexion are stronger than
any liquid, save one.
So, we say to all the defendants
of Japhet , and the pale face race,
watch the Mongolian races, and
especially the brown . race that the
United States lifted from their sol
itude into the family of nations.
Watch theirdeed. Discard their
words, and ryok upon them as
vehicles with which they conceal
dreadful thoughts.
Naturally taciturn, naturally
secretive, and never allowing you to
look into the windows of their soul,
tbey will hit you a left banded blow
while you are dodging a right band-L-d
blow. Tbey are an enemy not to
be despised, their recent victories
over Russia show that they are not
