Up to tht present time the chief difficulty In the way has Been the jealousy of the various nations, each, desiring to secure the Mon’s share and each fearing to be overreached by seme of the oth- ers. Russia had seized upon the vast northern province of Manchurta. Prance has appropriated Cochin-China tm the south. Emgiand has ot possession of Hongkeng at the mouth of the Canton river and holds a 99-year lease on an extensive region in the interior, Ger- ™any has a Iike lease of the province of Shantung, factng on the Tetlow sea. The partition of China was well begun and the nations concerned Were only waiting for some fitting opportunity to complete the work Without quarreling among themselves, when they are confronted with ‘the sudden rise to great power of Japan, which has driven Russia Rearly out of Manchuria and will soon fally accomplish the work. Why Should not Japan's next step be the driving of the Germans @ut of Shantung? If this can be done, it would be fm order to arouse the whole of (China and India and drive al! Europeans out of Asia. Under such leadership and following as the Japanese have exhi- Bited in the war with the Russians it could easily be done, Is it any wonder that Burope is worried? And can America be serene? If Japan can do all this she can also drive the Americans from the Phillippines, thus completing a chain of istands clear from the top to the bottom of the east coast of Asta and walling in that cor significan mayen to refuse ze recogt ed to exer- in the minds the | finent from the ocean. ‘The possibilities of this new world power are portentic | The Big School Band js kro You know of our past work.
