the Associated Press have appeared in neat nent American and English papers I J which while eloquent Y mod erat and well intentioned are un unhappily Unhappily happily calculated to mislead the world us ets to the prospects or of peace and the genera character or of Japans Japan S new with which it Is con Russia can close without loss of dignity The mistake into which the th representatives ot of those jour journals nals have undoubtedly fallen is obvIously obviously the result of misleading data leavened leaven cd with real lut secondary facts Thus it Is Quite true as those papers I predicted that the envoys o of Japan cape forward at tOd s silting with witha Ith Itha a proposal which was n new w In form but old In substance It i is equally equall true that proposal lacks the two eon con clauses stipulating that Rus sla shall surrender to Japan her dis disarmed disarmed armed and limit hr her nawal strength on the Pacific and that it reduces the differenCes between the two powers to the compass of what is iti ii appearance a single question the sale ot of Sakhalin Same Old Proposition I Seemingly therefore Japan h his s also struck her pen through the most ob obnoxious obnoxious noxious clau claue e of d deals all that she now asks Russia to do In addition to the terms already agreed upon is to pur purchase purchase chase the northern half of for a sum of yen and this alleged of terms is sup supposed supposed posed to provide Russia with an ac acceptable acceptable basis for a peace treaty treat At first sight the offer may perhaps seem new to some but a closer examination will show it to be In aU all e essentials iden with the ropo nl already rejected by plenipotentiaries Only Onh a person Unfamiliar wIth war in love with humanitarianism foreign to Rus la Ia and

should Russia decline to buy the territory Japan should keep it and conclude peace on the basis of the eon cessions already made Again if a purely busin transaction were In deed intended the value
