a suggestion Folk Is a man who has
made himself national reputation, as
fame hiess for his work in digging out

nothing during his life to justify the

The Japanese have made good their
title to two qualities concerning whose
possession there was some doubt.
They have shown themselves equal to
the brunt of the most savage and des-
perate fighting, and they have estab-
lished the sincerity of their national
contention prior to the opening of the
war; If there be no falling away from
the high record they have achieved in
these two respects, they will at once
gain an enviable standing among the
nations.
The assault upon Nanshan hill will
rank with the great struggles of his
tory. From the accounts received it
deserves to be compared with the
charge at BaIaklava. Only the troops
of race with the highest fighting
qualities could have compassed 1t.
Time after time the battalions that
had been repulsed returned to the
hopeless attempt. At the last, when
and even the forces of the greatest
fighting nation might have been for
given had they begun to despair, these
men took the event simply as an indi-
cation that another repulse must not
happen. They went forth against grim
Notifications defended by some Of the
best fighters in Europe or Asia, and
carried them in a hand to hand strug-
gle. No nation and no race has ever
given any proof of valor higher or
more. decisive than that which at
taches to the Japanese from this mem
orable fight.
The other quality, which we should
think much less expected, is their ap-
parent sincerity as to their policy in
Asia. We do not believe there is a
government in Europe which, in the
place of Japan, having obtained so
many and SO great advantages over an
enemy, would not have enlarged it's
claims. 1t would have contended for
additional territory under the guise of
a "war indemnity" and its ambition
would have kept pace with its victo-
ries. So far as can be learned, Japan
still asks and demands nothing. Her
minister to the United States, repudi-
ating naturally the idea that inter-
vention or mediation should be permit
ted, says that Japan would undoubted-
ly consent eff Russia would agree to
withdraw from Manchuria and would
consent to the things that we asked
before the outbreak of hostilities."
This is apparently still the national
position. Japan demands the neutral
ity of Korea under her protection. She
demands the return Of Manchuria to
China. She asked nothing else at the
beginning, and apparently she asks
nothing else now. 1t will be amazing
almost unbelievable, should this mod
Grafton survive through victory after
victory. If to her valor in war she
should add such wisdom in peace, we
could not deny to Japan as a nation
and her people as a race full credit
for qualities which the Western world
In spite of it's admiration, has not be-
lieved them to possess.

tions are involved, a session of the
United States supreme court has come
to be little more than an experience
meeting, in which the various men,
bers endeavor to express and define
their different shades and niceties of
opinion on questions as to whose mer-
its they are hopelessIy divided. Occa-
sionally they are able to file unani-
nous decision, but wherever funda-
mental principles are at stake they are
at variance. We saw, this in the i'm
come tax case, we saw it in all the
Philippine cases, we saw it In the
Northern Securities case, we are see
ing it every day with regret and not
without alarm for the future.
The supreme court is or ought to be
the great expounder Of our institutions
and the mainstay Of stable govern
ment. Without firm, c1earcut and de-
cided opinions on it's part, the con-
stitution itself degenerates into a
flimsy fabric pulled hither and thither
and filled with rents by conflicting
ideas. A divided supreme court, espe-
cially when dissenting on vital issues,
is supreme national misfortune. Our
people are coming to expect that the
members of the supreme bench cannot
agree on serious questions.
Note the decision filed in two recent
questions rising out Of our control Of
the Philippines. A man had been
charged with embezzlement, acquitted
in Manila and then convicted by an
other court. He appealed on the
ground that he had been twice put in
jeopardy, which is contrary to the
constitution of the United States. Our
supreme court sustains this view,
thereby implicitly holding that the con-
stitution extends to the Philippines In
the second case a man accused of GRIM
inal libel demanded a trial by jury on
the ground that our constitution guar
antees it. The court held that, in the
absence OF specific legislation by con-
gress extending that right to the Phil
ippines, his plea MS worthless. The
supreme court Of the United States up
held this view.
In the first case mentioned, Justice
Day and four others rendered the
opinion. Justices Holmes, White and
McKenna rendered one dissenting opin-
ion, and Justice Brown dissented all by
himself on different ground. In the
second case four judges again united
in an opinion and in reasons for It,
Three others reached the same con-
clusion, but from entirely different
premises. Justice Harlan dissented
from everybody, finding himself hostile
both to the conclusion reached and to
the reasons making it valid in the
minds Of the other judges.
We say that this condition of affairs
is a misfortune to the country. Good

TANGIER, June 1. - The United

ther developments concerning the kid
naping of PerdicariS and VarIey, but a
report is current that eight days have
been allowed the sultan in which to
produce the prisoners, beyond which
time Tangier will be bombarded. This
report is not confirmed.
LONDON, June 1.-The British min
lister at Tangier, acting on instruc-
tions from the foreign Office here, is
cooperating with the French minister
in the endeavor to secure the release
of MessrS. Perdicaris and Varley. 1t is
believed here that If the captives' re-
lease is possible it can best be achiev-
ed through French influence. Spain
fully concurs with the British and
American action in utilizing French
intervention. By this means it is
thought here the sultan of Morocco
will be enabled to bring such pressure
to bear on Raisuli, the bandit chief, as
to compel him TO release his captives
without necessitating the forcible in
terVention of either of the nations to
which the captiveS belong.
