The democratic national committee.
which meets in Chicago tomorrow to con-
slider matters of great Importance to the
party may be divided into two factions.
In the one faction are to be found the
men who are aggressively and uncompro-
misingly in favor of the free coinage of
silver at Is TO | as an independent act by
this government. That is their first and
great proposition. They are in favor of
other things. and they enumerate them.
but silver takes precedence Of all the rest.
In nowise disheartened by the defeat of
1906. or by the overturning since of all the
arguments with which they made that
fight. they still insist that the minis must
b. reopened to silver before the country's
affairs can he said to rest upon satisfac
tory and assuring basis. and they want an
other campaign on that issue.
The hero of these men Is William J.
Bryan. He is. in their eyes the foremost
man of the day. easily the most eloquent.
and incomparably the most courageous and
unselfsh. 81 greatly do they admire him,
indeed. that they refuse to consider any
other name in connection with next years
presidential nomination. They would
rather go to defeat again with him on the
silver issue. than to success with anybody
else, with silver sacrificed.
In the other faction are to be found the
men who may be termed opportunists
They are welded TO no issue Their whole
desire is to win They will adopt or re-
pudiate anything in an effort to score.
They Endorsed silver and supported Mr.
Bryan in 1895. but all the while feeling a
little doubtful as to the winning qualities
OF the man and the issue. When defeat
came they, of course. turned their backs
on both They are proposing nothing now
but to wait. Wait and see what the next
year may bring forth. The great thing is
To win. and hence the part of wisdom, as
they insist. is 10 let time and circumstances
make the platform
These men have no hero. They have no
enthusiasms of any kind about either men

The meeting at Chicago may not devotion
much for the outside world, but each fac
ton OF the committee is certain to obtain
some useful pointers about the other. The
feeling Is getting to be bitter between the

The text Of the new treaty with Japan,
which went into effect Monday, is not spe-
ciically clear on the question whether
foreigners may acquire title to property
In Japan. which lies close to the founda-
ton Of the prosperity of the foreign mer.
chants now engaged in business in the
islands and refiectiS ely to that of Japan
herself. Article II OF the treaty provides:
The citizens and subjects Of each of the
high contracting parties may trade in any
part of the territories of the other by
wholesale or retail in all kinds OF produce
manufactures and merchandise of lawful
commerce, either in person or by agents
singly or in partnership with foreigners or
rative citizens or subjects; and they may
there own or hire and occupy houses
manufactures. warehouses. shops and
premises which may be necessary for them
and lease land for residential and com
mercial purposes. conforming themselves
of the country like native citizens OF sub
jects.''
This Is practically all In the treaty re-
lating to the acquisition of property 1t is
To be noted that it does not either specifi-
cally prohibit permit the purchase of
lands by foreigners. In fact the provision
is vague and requires calculation by a
further agreement or by legal interpreta-
ton III order TO settle the question. 1t is
declared that foreigners may own houses
and premises" which may be necessary
for them In ordinary pariancs ohts
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1899-07-19

phraseology would mean only one thing,
that it granted the right to acquire title
to such property. The word "own' has
but that one meaning. The word prem
ises'' is defined in the Standard Dictionary
thus: "A distinct portion of real estate;
land or lands; land with its appurtenances,
as buildings" 1t is suggested on the other
hs nd, that if the privilege of owning land is
thus given, the right to lease land is in
Guided within the larger privilege. and the
words concerning leasing would be mere
surplusage. Tie understanding among the
foreign merchants ia Japan has for a
long time been that the treaty would shut
them off from the land-owning privilege.
although it would permit them to. lease
such property as they might require in
their business. They have always enjoyed
that right within the limits of their settle
ments and If now the treaty is to shut
them out of the right of title altogether 1t
is to be that their second state will
soon prove worse than their first 1t is
highly desirable both for Japan and for
the nations engaged in commerce with her
that the status of the foreign merchants
there be preserved with as much security
as possible. These men have built up the
trade through their command of large
credits and the confidence of the shippers
in their integrity. To destroy their present
commercial standing and force them into
an unequal competition with the native
merchants without the right of landowner
ship would soon result in their withdrawal
from the field, leaving the native middle
men and retailers to their own devices
The credit of the latter, unfortunately is
not as good today as is that of the foreign
merchant. 1t is predicted that an early re-
suit of this change would be the reduction
of large percentage of the foreign import
trade to strictly cash basis, which would
soon paralyze many branches of industry.
In other ways, too, the lack of property
ownership rights would tend to drive out
the foreigners who have done much to
build up Japans commerce and foster her
domestic prosperity. 1t is therefore to be
hoped that the most liberal Interpretation
will be placed upon this article of the
treaty, unless Japan feels today strong
world solely with her own agencies. 1t has
been asserted of late that the japanese
government, since the PRONUNCIATION of the
treaty in March, 1895, has obtained ''modi-
fications'' of the terms which have the eff
feet of declaring against the right of title
acquisition. No such notifications appear
on the face of the public record in the
case. and if they were in fact secured they
must have taken the form of an executive
agreement to interpret the treaty in the
manner noted. If this be the case 1t may
prove an unfortunate concession by this
government and an unwise acquisition by
Japan.

Spanish Merchants in Cuba,
From the New York Tribune.

Some of the Spanish merchants in Cuba
are going to Mexico rather than remain
and do business under United States pro-
lection. After the war a good many south
ern planters did the same thing, but soon
came back again. Mexico is now a more
prosperous place than it was thirty years
ago, and interests are more securely pro-
tected. but the migrating Spanish mer-
chants are likely to find, after making the
trial. that there is more money to be made
IN cuba. That island is almost the richest
ana most productive territory in the world,
and as 1t is now for the first time in Its
history under wholesome and competent
rule its era of true prosperity is lust in
It's dawn. The Spanish merchants may re-
turn IN few years, as the southern plant
ers did before them, but if they prefer to
stay away they have our good wishes all
the same. 49,
