American diplomacy, which a few
years ago was the laughing stock of the
world, is respected to-day for the notable
victories it has won in recent years in
China, and at Paris, etc. Some ten
years ago the Russians siezed several
American sealing vessels in Behring sea.
American diplomacy demanded arbitra-
ton and kept at it till it secured the APP
pointment of board of European eX-
perts. These have Just brought in their
award giving the American vessels
heavy damage.

No greater farce was ever perpetrated
under the prohibitory system than the
license bill enacted in the name of local
option. 1t first says that every town
wishes and votes. Then it turns to the
200 odd towns that vote prohibition and
says you shall have licensed place for
the sale of liquors in your town anyway
if ) per cent of the voters want it and a
majority of the physicians think it is
best. If this is not denying the right of
self government to over three fourths of
the towns we do not know what is.

LITTLE CHANCE
FOR TANBARA
GOVERNOR DOLE TOOK HIS CASE
LEAVING FOR HAWAII.

Before leaving for the Island of Ha-
| wall Governor Dole had under consid-
Grafton the matter of granting a re-
prieVe for Tanbara Gisaburo, who is
under sentence to be hanged next Fri
day and the executive is reported to
have come to the conclusion, aftfr
looking into the case, that he would
not take any action.
The petition by the japanese who
signed the memorial in behalf of Tan
bara transmitted to the Governor by
Acting Consul Okabe, has aroused a
good deal of discussion as to the power
of the Governor to interfere, the con-
VictiOn of murder being a federal one,
and the prospective hanging under the
federal authorities. Governor DOles
power in this respect is a peculiar one,
allowing him to grant reprieve until
the President may be heard from, in
cases where sentences are imposed un-
der the federal law. In view of Ha
wallis slow communication with WASH
ington this provision was deemed
necessary instead of the usual direct
appeal to the President in federal
cases.
The Organic Act, section 66, defining
the powers of the Governor, says that
he may grant pardons or reprieVes for
offenses against the laws of the Terri
tory and reprieves for offenses against
the laws of the United States until the
decision of the President is made
known thereon"
Under this provision the governor
has the power, it is stated, to direct
Marshal Hendry to postpone the eXecu-
ton. The appeal of Tanbara's friends
would then be transmitted to President
Roosevelt, and he could either approve
the reprieve and allow time for an eff
fort to get a new trial, or disapprove it,
in which case the hanging would pro-
ceed On the mainland, where all
points are connected by wire with
Washington, it is not necessary for
the Governor to have such power, and
appeals are made direct to Washington
! in federal cases.
