European press state that each party

TREATY BY PROCLAMATION.
Eject OF the Mckinley Bin Upon the Pow
ers OF the President.


eFs OF the President.
The attempt of the Mckinley bill is
to vest the president with absolute
power in treaty-making, freeing him
from the constitutional restriction I'M
der which a treaty negotiated by the
executive department must have the ad-
vice and consent of the senate before 1t
has any validity as law
This attempt is the more dangerous
because of the skill with which 1t is
made. The method of treaty-malzing
which has thus far prevailed, which is
the only method contemplated or au-
thOrized by the constitution. involves
the entering into formal contract be
tween the powers, which on the part Of
the United States must be approved by
the senate after 1t has been drawn
Were II otherwise, an act of Mexico, of
Brazil, of Guatemala, OF the Caunibal
islands, could be given the effect of
''the highest law OF the land" over the
United States by the mere consent of
the president
This IS exactly what is now being at
empted- Under the plan of the Nc
Einiey bill the sErang emeuts are made
between the powers as In case of =
treaty, except that the senate Is ruled
out The act Of a foreign government
has only to be confirmed by the prOcla-
nation of the president of the United
States to have the force OF a treaty
