JAPAN IN MANCHUKIA,
SHE IS NOW THE DOMINANT POWER IN THAT CHINESE PROVINCE Japan's assertion that the war against Russia in Manchuria was fought for the preservation of the integrity of China and the independence [571 of the Hermit Kingdom of Corea, the San Francisco Chronicle says, is being exposed by her own Government as the shallowest kind of a pretence for the carrying out of her own aggressive plans of expansion under the cover of national philanthropy. The Japanese Govern. ment is, in fact, demonstrating to the world that it was no more inspired by philanthropy toward China in the war with Russia than any of the Western governments have been in the wars in which they have engaged and at whose close the victor has invariably exacted terri- torial and other concessions as the price of peace..

G. DE CHAMPEAUX,
Hongkong, 14th May, 1906,
The paternal protectorate established over Corea has been converted, to all intents and purposes, into Japan's absolute sovereignty over the kingdom. In all, except in name, the Hermit Kingdom is lo-day a Japanese province. Japan is policing the country, directing its domestic affairs, controlling its foreign re lations, collecting its customs and disbursing its revenues, and exploiting its respurces for her. own benefit. And, according to the statement just given out in Washington by the Japanese Legation, Japan is dominating the affairs of not only the leased territory in Manchuria sur rendered by the Russians under the terms of peace, but, also, all of that pan of the province outside of the leasehold which her troops occupied before the treaty was signed. She in good faith, the principles of the open door, is, however, beginning to carry out, apparently which sie morally obligated herself to do in her antebellum representations to other potions.
