"CHINA FOR THE CHINESE."
The following Jotter appeared in the Time::--- Sie. As a representative of “ Young China,” resident in this country, I cannot allow your leading article of February 12 and the special article. “China for the Chinese,” on which it was hased, to pass without offering a protest. The opinions you express are no doubt riced et by honest observation and inquiry, Mag I, without wishing to throw as much dust as possible into the eyes" of this outer world, present another aspect of the case?
The real impression made on China by Japan's recont success is that it is possible by peaceful organization conductal ou well-modelled lines to riss to the rank and influence of a Great Power. China's army roform is a first step in this process-not because, as your correspon- dent implies, she wishes to use bar army to enforce hor freedom from extra-territorial treaty clauses, but because the recognizes the necessity for an efficient police in internal exigencies. War with a farsign Power is the last thing China contemplates. Decades wenst pass bofore she is oven able to preserve her own iutorual disciplitto.

As to your correspondent's depreciatory comparison between the Chinese and Japsuese larger morality, as evinced in the virtue of political sttruism, all I need say is that he is asilently ignorant of Confuoman teaching en this Load Confucias teaches political altenism quite as much as he touches private or indi. vidual altruism. It is certainly true that his teaching of the former has to some extent been iz ateyance, since our former autocrats had -forbidden-its general study among the people It was their cue to keep this teaching unknown. It is not, however, the cue of the present roling powers to do so. Thus politics! altruism, the necessity und beauty of individual self-saurition for the State's welfare, is potentially, and I might almost say actually, au emanation from the national religion, as it is acknowledged by your sorrespondent to be in Japan.

The Novos Fromya asks, What ought Russia to do with regard to Northors Mancharia? The newspaper referred to says that Russia has two entirely opposed programmes before it. The first is that of treating Northern Man- chiria as part of the great strategical an which aims at secaring the whole fank of the Amur Territory from Chinese invasion; the second way before the Russian Government is that of breaking ones und froll with that iden by carrying out cone entiously the trms of the Portsmouth Treaty of Peace. so much enfeebled by the last campaign, and by its own internal disorders, that the only plan before it in the Far East must be that of securing and strengthening all that it obtained ander the Treaty of Portsmonth, But a real safeguarding of Russia's interesis in the face of Japan's pretensions can be brought about only if we can bring all the other ferdign Powers to go solid with us, and not with Japan. This we can bring about is Northern Manchuria only if we follow the successful policy followed by the Japaness in 1902, namely, that Russia shall step forward as the defender of universal free trade."
It may be pointed out that the Vivo Vremya has been one of the most strenuous sapporters of the ridiculous idea that Rusia alone had any claim to interfera in the affairs of the Far East, and that the other foreign Powers, without exception, were only intruders in that region. It is a grost pity that the Noroc Frewiya did not emit au ocensional gloum of common-sense while the great storm was brewing in the Far East.
