139 THE FALL OF TSINGTAU With a population of 50,000,000 people liv- ing on a group of islands about the size of the State of Montana, Japan is only looking for- ward to her future when she attempts to push her domains on to the continent of Asia. When she arose in 1905 as one of the first-class Pow- ers, she discovered that Great Britain, Ger- many, Russia, and the remainder of the larger nations, had already played their game of grab, and the practice of foreign expansion was about at a stand...still. Nevertheless, realizing the unstable position of China, Japan stood guard at the door of Asia, and at the first sign of trouble from the nations within — Britain's war against Ger- many — she found an opportunity to get her much-desired Asiatic spoils through the Anglo- Japanese Alliance. As to the California immigration question — time alone wUl settle it satisfactorily both for Japan and the United States. But in Japan's ambitions in China and in the American atti- tude toward the Celestial Kingdom, there alone lies the danger of war between Japan and America.
