NO DEALS ON.

The anxiety of some of our Democratic
friends that the Republicans should abandon
the plan 10 make non-partisan nominations Tor
the Court of Appeals because the Democrats
want to use those offices to pay debts incurred
in securing delegates for Judge Parker is much
in evidence But 1t is needless. Their almost
daily assertion that the deal is off because the
Democrats viii motor perhaps cannot, owing
TO the mortgages of Herrick and Cunneen-
agree 10 Cullen and Werner evidently repre-
sents their wish. But il is no use for them to
worry. There Is no deal on TO be called off. The
Republicans do not depend on the Democrats
TO determine their action. They have never
asked the Democrats to indorse their nomlna-
tons As The Tribune said when ii first ad-
vocated the nomination of Judges Cullen and
Werner the Republicans planned to act indie
'pendently and without exacting any terms of
1.-The Democrats"
Republican opinion on this question is based
on a recognition OF what is right and proper.
Republicans see in Judge Cullen one of the
ablest judicial minds in the State. He is the
senior Justice OF the Supreme Court His long
experience in the Appellate Division. his ser
vice in the Court Of Appeals and his demon
strated judicial independence suggest him as
the natural and fitting head of the Court Of
Appeals to every man who without regard TO
politics considers how 10 promote the public
welfare and maintain the high standards OF our
Judiciary. Judge Werners unquestloned ability
and uprightness and his experience in the Court
Of Appeals single him cut as the manifestly APP
propriate candidate for the Associate Judgeship.
For these reasons Republican sentiment in all
parts Of the State has crystallized in favor Of
nominating Judges Cullen and Werner. regard
less Of what the Democrats may do
1t is not a case Of forcing" anybody on them,
as Mr. Cunneen complains in his demand for
the place, which David B Hill apparently prom
Used him as the price Of Buffalo support in the
fight for Parker instructions last spring. The
Democrats are perfectly free TO nominate Mr..
Cnnneen for Associate Judge and Justice Her
rick for Chief Judge, or make any other nofnl-
nations they desire. In fact, Republicans who
think more Of party advantage than OF the de-
STABILITY Of keeping the judiciary out Of poll
ties might wish them TO make some such noml-
nations Republican feeling in the matter Is
controlled by a sense Of what IS fitting and
right, regardless of what others may do, and
it is not dependent on any deals. We believe
that the Democrats would serve the public in
terest by following the same course, but that
is something for them to decide. If they choose
70 antagonize Judges Cullen and erner at the
polls, that is their privilege.

Here is the overwhelming interest of New

Mr.. DAVIS ON LABOR.

Candidate Davis is proving worthy rival to

say something while not saying it. In a letter
Of August IS to Mr.. Johnson, OF Roanoke Va,
discussing the labor question as regards bis

came from the hard school of experience. that

and the cost of living, every man is entitled 10
full compensation for his services
Does Candidate Davis know any one who
does not believe this statement he makes with
such judicious care? A great many people also

LAPAN'S CASE.

Japan's statement of her case, in the con-
troversy over the neutrality of China, seems 10
be pretty convincing all points but one she
dwells upon the fact, which we have already SET
forth in these columns as one of the salient
features Of the case, that China's position Is
anomalous in that part OF her territory IS the
scene of beligerent operations while the rest of
it is expected to be held neutral by those same
belligerents. Her neutrality is therefore partial
and qualified Japan also points out what we
have here referred to as part of her provoca-
tion that Russia in the case or the gunboat
Manchuria at Shanghai abused Chinese nell
trality and thus gave ground for suspecunS
her conduct in the case Of the Ryeshitelni On
these and other grounds it must be said Japan
makes strong case for her own vindcatlon.
The point to which exception will most be
taken is Japan's practical denial Of the right of
asylum. She is quite right in saying that 1t is
unlawful and intolerable for Russia to make
Chinese ports base of belligerent action, by
rehtting and rearming her ships there and send
ing them thence to prey upon Japanese COM
merce. IN that she is at one with international
law. But she seems to go further, and to deny
the right of China TO give the ordinary privl-
leges of asylum to Russian ships. Russia,
she says. cannot escape the consequences of
IAN unsuccessful war by moving its army or
navy into those portions of China which had
"warship sought in the harbor of Che-Eoo an
asylum from attack which her home port had
ceased to afford her. In taking that step she
twas guilty Of n breach of the neutrality OF
China as established by the agreement of the
"belgerents.' That is Japan's plea In extenua-
ton of the seizure OF the Ryeshitelni.
If that plea is unsatisfactory, II is because It
Is incomplete. Japan should have given chapter
and verse of the text 10 prove that it was
violation of neutrality as specially agreed upon
in this war. We cannot regard 1t as a violation
of general principles Of neutrality. A neutral
nation surely has a right TO give asylum 70
beligerent ships, and thus TO enable them TO
escape at least some Of the consequences Of an
unsuccessful war"-provided, Of course, that
such asylum Is properly limited. or that the
ships are disarmed and restrained from again
participating in the war. II there was any IN
Outstanding suspending that right in the case
of China in this war, the world should be more
generally and most authoritatively Informed of
it. Until the world receives such information Il
will continue TO regard the Ryeshitelni incident
as one Tor which Japan probably had much
provocaton, but which, upon the basis OF exist
ing information, must be regarded with disap-
prevail and regret as not altogether worthy Of a
great power that is ostensby engaged in fight
ing for the vindication OF international equity
and justice

have bad much to say In criticism Of
Judge Parker because he declared
that the gold standard had been
"lrrevocably' established.
The text book boasts that the laws
against the trusts have been
strengthened aud enforced; and this
statement IL made In the face of the
fact that no effort has been made to
enforce the chief feature OF the
anti-trusts law,which 10 the criminal
clause, and no one speaking for the
administration has undertaken to
explain why that claus has not been
appealed to.
The text book refers TO "the. rela-
tlon o. the trusts TO the nomination
Of the democratic candidate tor Il. 9

text book are expected to forget
that the trusts provided the repub-
lican party with their campaign
funds In 1895 and In 1900 and that
they are expected tn make liberal
contributions to the same campaign
fund In 1904.
