JAPAN, THE GREAT SOLDIER
The following is from the Columbus
Enquirer-Sun. It is well worth the
reading:
In its policy of maintaining a grow
5 lg military power as its interests at
home and in the adjacent territories
and waters of the Far East? go on
griwing, Japan is credited in the New
York Herald’s stuff correspondence,
which is being published in # The
Enquirer-Sun, with posses
the finest fighting maccinesr of mod
ern history. In various ways, Mr.
Seibold writes, it is unsurpassed and
prcbably is “the best disciplined and
equipped army in the wcrld.” %
“Rut,” says the Herald, by way of
comment, T v hich is of much interest,
“the technical perfection of this well
balanced and highly efficient machine
is not the only thing which makes it
of extraordinary importance in world
affairs.” The Herald then points out
that the Japanese army is the over
sh dowing influence in heme matter's,
pot merely military but political, so
cial and economic, and that the con
trol of the high-powered Japanese ar
my rests in a few hands —a sort of
self-perpetuating oligarchy, thus be
coming the masters of the elder
statesmen, the mikado himself, the
very gevernment of the remarkable
people who are now the dominant
force in the Asiatic Pacific. “Japan,
the soldier, therefore looms big in
foreign diplomacy as in home man
agement,” sa(ys the Herald, which
continues:
Perhaps, by reason of their pre
cise information as to the war
power and financial resources of
other nations, these military lead
ers, one might say dictators, of
Japan are sincerely no less zea
lously bent upon a model home
defense army. But home defence
with Japan, as with the other
world powers of the first rank,
now includes millions of square
i miles of territory distant from the
home land by many leagues.
Under these circumstances
there ig no statesman whose coun
try's relations and interests are
not confined to one side of the
globe who does not givj close con
sideration to the already devel
oped Japanese navy.
Japan is wideawake. There is not
the slightest doubt about this. For
moi*y yars past the Japanese peo*
(:#? MV# been forging ahead at a most
rapid PNce. They have looked all
over the world and are adopting the
best methods in every thing thjy have
found. In matters military they are
up to date, and are strengthening ev
ery arm of the service as rapidly as
possible.
The Japanese people find themselves
in a rather peculiar situation. Thej
are Increasing in numbers all the
while, but their island is not expand
ing, and it now has on it almost as
many people o can be taken ca~e of.
which naturally causes them to cast
about for a place to which those whe
desire to do so can emigrate. Thej
want to be accorded the same rights
in other countries that the nationals
of other countries are accorded. They
wish to become landowners In foreign
countries, but they will not permit
any foreigner to own land in their
country. In other words they want to
be given privileges that they will no*
grant to others.
This shows them to be a selfish peo
ple, too selfish, in fact, to cause othef
peoples to regard them with as great
a degree of tolerance as they would
if they were less so.
But Japan is endeavoring to expand
at the expense of others; and she is
strengthening her fighting forces all
the while in-order to he able to force
, expansion if H should become neces
sary. This is the thing other nations
trust guard against. They must be in
a position to say to Japan, thus far
shall thou go and no further. If they
fall to prepare themselves so as to be
able to say this and enforce It, they
may some day find that Jfcpan has
taken a step that will create conster
nation throughout the world.
There is one thing thta Japan may
be counted upon to do—and probably
the only thlng—and that Is to take
care of U* own Interests in the best
and most effective manner possible.
Other nations of the earth cannot,
therefore, give Japan too much lati
tude.

DESPISE NOT SMALL THINGS.
“For who has despised the day of
small things?” was a query put long
ago. Small things may have been lit
tle considered once, but small things
are now recognized as involving the
possibility of becoming bigger things.
The peanut has been considered as
emblematic of small things. It is often
used thus metaphorically; but some
recent figures show that in thfe Aggrej
gate the peanut crop is neither smatr
in quantity nor of slight value in the
built.
To those whose knowledge of pea
nuts is confined to sight of them on
the street venders’ stand where a bag
used to sell for a nickel, the business
of growing them might seem to be of
sight extent orimportance. Of
course a nickel does not buy many of
thorn now, neither does it buy much
of anything else. But the growing of
peanuts is not a “peanut” business in
size, that it is so literally. In the
South where they raise them they aro
called “goobers,” but a peanut is a
peanut by whatever nume it is known.
The farm value of last year's crop was
estimated at totrlitng over $79,000,000.
What consume!a paid for them han
dled them In small bags would multi
ply the original cost several times.
Nearly 2.000 acres are ordinarly de
voted to this crop, a showing of area
as well us dollars. It is only for
the last 50 years that the peanut has
yrown commercially. It does not rival
wheat cr com as an agricultural pro
duct. but it is not to be despised as a
small thing.
Recently there died in Philadelphia
the originator of ice cream soda. It
was about fifty yeasr ago that this
n an tried dropping some Ice cream in
a glass of soda water. He found it
agreeable to himself. He tried It on
customers of the soda fountain over
which he presided and they liked it.
From a chance enperlment untoid mil
lions have delighted in ice cream so
da. It was a small thing, hut it struck
the public taste just where it wa* vul
nerable. MilUoms have been made
as the result of.that simple experi
ment. So important did; the discov
