EVA TENNIS
REAL THING
Tourney Proceeds as
Far as the Semi
Finals.

The tennis tournament played at Ews
| ON Sunday was the hottest on record
All Eva turned out to see the play
on the courts, and a most enjoyable
day was spent by everybody. Fortu
nately the weather was on its best be
havior.
Punctually at 9 a. M "Doc' Me
Lean and Davidson, the lanky book
keeper, faced the dead sure guys
Bento and Gouveia and were quickly
put to rout, the score being 0-6, 81
Rooters were very much in evidence
during this match.
Head Luna Fisher and Store Assist
ant Silver next engaged Fatty
Schmidt and Jenkins, otherwise known
as 1.-The Taffy Boy The latter pair
received their quietus after smart
three sets.
Owing to bye the 'tHigh Cocko-
forums Bento and Gouveia again faced
the music, this time in the shape of
the undaunted Hieland Laddie Mann
fiords. The onlookers received a rare
run for their money but witnessed the
shutting out of the last named pair by
the score of Ga, rs.
Next on the board were the popular
favorites Archie Guild and Pop"
Swift versus the plantation s serio-
comic vocalist and all-round funny man
Muller, and Dave Douglas, the
doughty politician. This was the game
of the day as the latter were held too
cheaply by their opponents and it was
only after a gruelling game that they
were beaten, the score being 81, 1O-S,
Ga. Muller's leaps were really great.
Terada, the perky little Jap inter
prefer, with the assistance of Head
Water Luna Gliding, downed Dandy
Charlie McEachern and Commodore
Chase after a pretty game, Terada S
racket work, as usual, eliciting much
applause.
The tournament had now reached the
semi-fnal stage and Bento and Gouveia
opposed Fisher and Silver. This game
was in doubt until nearly the end of
the second set, owing to the determined
playing of Fisher, ably seconded by his
partner. The "certs' eventually ran
out winners, however, by the score of
4-6. $40.
Guild and Swift then went hot foot
after Terada and Gliding and notwith-
standing Terada s spirited play and
Olding's defense, succeeded in winning
to the tune Of 81, ga, 6-3.
By this time the light was getting
too bad to allow of accurate play and
Captain Alec McKeeEer decided to post
pone the finals till next Sunday when
Gouveia and Bento meet Guild and
Swift in what promises to be the best
game ever seen at EVA.
Handicapped McKeever' s adjustment
of the weights gave satisfaction to all
concerned

This is a difficulty which was fore
seen bv the trainers, champions, and
earliest expounders of the Federal Con-
stitution, but at that time they did
not dare to deal with it effectually. AS
it was, the Constitution framed at
Philadelphia in 1897 could not have Sc
cured ratification had not the State con
ventions in certain indispensable States
practically conditioned their assent on
the immediate addition of the first ten
amendments, which substantially en-
body a bill of rights. If the Constitu
ton had explicitly declared that the
whole power of the Federal Executive
and Judiciary should be used to en-
force compliance with treaties on a
constituent State, the proposed Federal
organic law would not have had a
chance of adoption. For the new Union
was to inherit the treaties made under
the Articles of Confederation, among
which was the treaty of peace with
Great Britain (17S3), which prescribed
that debts due to British merchants
before the outbreak of the War of In
dependence should be collectable in
American courts, and that loyalists
should be undisturbed in life, liberty,
or property 1t is well known that
these treaty obligations were dehed IN
several States, and that to this day the
wrong then done to many creditor or
loyalist has never been redressed. But,
although the signers of the Constitution
of 1877 did not venture to make the
Federal Executive and the Federal
courts the enforcers of treaty obliga-
tions (but confined themselves to say
ing that the judges in every State
"shaU'' hold themselves bound by
treaties), the danger of emitting to do
so was not, as we have said, lost sight
of.

a moment - the doctrine that the Fed
eral government had no power to IN
terfere and that the decision must rest
with the State of New York. The re-
lations of foreign powers were with the
Federal government, and when repara-
ton was demanded for a wrong done
by a State, it was to the Federal
government that the aggrieved foreign
power must look for redress. To con-
cede that the Federal government had
no control over a State would lead
logically to the assumption that the
Union did not exist so far as foreign
powers were concerned, and to the &C
crediting of foreign diplomatic agents,
not to the Federal government, but to
each separate State. and would make
their relations of peace and war with
each State depend upon the results of
their separate intercourse with such
State All the facts in this interesting
ease will be found set forth in the lately
published sixth volume of the History
of the United States by Mr.. John Bach
McMaster but we may note here that
Daniel Webster, in his answer to Mr..
Fox, evaded the point just recalled,
and, by providing for the prisoner
eminent counsel, including the United
States District Attorney for the North
ern District of New York, secured his
acquittal, whereby the incident was
closed. We have reproduced small
part of the diplomatic correspondence
to show, what might be overlooked,
that Japan has a British precedent for
declining to recognize any alleged in
ability of our Federal government to
prevent the State of California from
discriminating against japanese chill
dren in schools, to the contravention
of the treaty which assured to the
japanese the privileges granted to the
most favored nation. Suppose that
Japan should say that, just as Great
Britain, through the mouth of Lord
Palmerston, threatened IN l841 to deal
directly with the State of New York,
the Mikado, on his part, will deal di-
rectly with the State of California;
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1906-12-05

Thus. for example, Madison, in No.
43 of the Federallst, pointed out that
as the Constitutions of the States differ
much from each other, it might happen
that a treaty or national law of great
and equal Importance to the States
would interfere with some and not with
other Constitutions, and would conse-
quently be valid in some at the same
time that it would have no effect In
others. In fine, the world would see
for the first time a system OF govern
ment founded on an inversion OF the
fundamental principles of all govern
ments; 1t would see the authority OF
the whole society subordinated every
where to the authority of the parts;
it would see, in a word, monster IN
which the head was under the direction
of the members. So, too, Alexander
recognized that the Union would I'M
doubtedly be answerable to foreign
powers for the conduct of it's members.
He added that the responsibility for
an injury ought always to be accom-
panied with the means of preventing
it. He went on to say that, as the
denial and perversion of justice by the
sentences of courts, as well as IN any
among the just causes of war, it would
follow that the Federal judiciary ought
to have cognizance of all causes IN
which the citizens of other countries
are concerned. This he pronounced no
less essential to the preservation or
the public faith than to the security
of the public tranquility. 1t IS, new
ertheless, a fact that Congress has
never yet passed laws giving the Fed
eral Executive or the Federal courts
the power to enforce treaty obligations,
in case these should be contraEened
by the Constitutioa or laws OF a par
ticular State. So long = this remains
true it is obvious that our Federation
lacks one of the essential definitions OF
nation. For our &c ,crGl government,
while assuming treaty obligations TO
foreign powers. either lacks constItu-
tionally. or from ti'cijity has failed to
assert, the means OF i ing up to them.

1t is evidently not going to be easy
to allay the irritation felt in Japan at
the exclusion of japanese children
from San Francisco schools which are
attended by white pupils. Since we
discussed the subject last week evil
dence has accumulated that Secretary
Metcalf is likely to find the Educa-
ton Board of San Francisco intracta-
BILE, because that body, like the other
municipal authorities of that town,
have for some years represented or
ganized labor, which is determined to
make California an undesirable place
of residence not only for the Chinese,
but for all other Orientals. Neither

duce the Legislature to repeal the law
under which the Education Board act

have not yet acquired a majority of
the Legislature, they constitute very
strong minority. We seem likely, there

mental question, Does a treaty conclud-

So the law of the land' in the sense
that our Federal Executive or Judiciary
can treat as invalid the statute of a
State that contravenes it? What for
eign powers think of the assertion,
more than once made and acted upon
by us, that our Constitution does not
permit the Federal government to
coerce States into compliance with
treaty obligations, was so distinctly de-
clared in the famous Mcleod case that
it may be worth while to recall the
peremptory position taken by Great
Britain III that affair. In the autumn
of 1910 a Canadian named Alexander
Mcleod was arrested at Lewiston, New
York, and committed to the Lockport
Jail, on the charge that he had con-
fessed to having fired the shot by which
an American named Amos Durfee was
killed on the night when a vessel
named the Caroline was captured in
American waters by party of Cana
dians. The British government forth
with demanded the release of the pris-
oner, but Forsyth, who was then Sec
rotary of State, replied that the of
fence of which Mcleod was accused
had been committed in the territory
and against the laws of the citizens of
the State of New York; that it came
within the jurisdiction of her tribunals;
that the jurisdiction of each State of
the Union was, within It's proper sphere,
perfectly independent of the Federal
government; and that any Federal in
terposition would therefore be i'm
proper.
Subsequently, Mr.. Fox, the British
minister at Washington, was instructed
by her Majesty's government-Lord
Palmerston was then Secretary for For
eign Affairs-to address a note to
Daniel Webster, who had succeeded

Poison in Stomach,

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, AIN. 30.-Arsenic
has been discovered in the stomach of
Frederick Mueller, the eccentric Ger
man farmer Of st. Louis county, who
married a woman 25 years mis- Junior
December IA, while standing in the
right of way of the Frisco railway.
Sixteen days later he was dead The
coroner had the body exhumed against
the protests of the young wife, VINO by
his death became possessed of one
half the farmers estate by the terms
of an ante-nuptial contract. The stom-
ach was sent to ST. Louis chemists
with the result that unmistakable evil
dence of arsenic poisoning was dis
covered.
Mrs. Mueller declared when the body
was examined that if any sign of
poison was found it would mean he had
taken it voluntarily. She Indignantly
denied stories of mysteries being con-
nected with the deaths of her first
husband and her 16-year- son.

MAY THWART ELECTRIC LINE.
Northern Pacific Arranges to Build
Spur at Oakesdale.

OAKESDALE, Jan 3t-Consider-
able excitement is manifested in town
today over a question of granting the
Northern Pacific a franchise for the
crossing of Pearl street with a side
track to their lots east of the street
named. A request was submitted yes
terday to Mayor Mccoy asking for
such a franchise at once, or, if impos-
sible to grant this Immediately, to give
permission now and the franchise later.
AS this sidetrack would cross the pro-
posed Spokane & Inland right of way
and possibly interfere with depot
grounds, the town authorities have re-
giving as their reason that they think
the effort being made is for the pur-
pose of thwarting the plans of the new
electric line Already the Northern
Pacific is at work. The ties are on the
ground and the steel is being unloaded
A clash is not unlikely to occur. The
present plan is for the electric line to
pass through the town on the east side
of the Northern Pacific between that
road and the ridge. The sidetrack
spur would run at right angles to the
Inland from the Northern Pacific to
the ridge, compelling a most incon
venient crossing, which would greatly
interfere with traffic

WILL NOT BENEFIT STATE
Ross viii Have All His Work For
Nothing.
HIS LAST ditch FIGHT A FAILURE
According to Plans Land Under Carey
Act Won't be Included in SUM-
nyside Project.
HIS LAST Ditch FIGHT" A FAILURE

Some interesting information rela-
tive to the Carey Act selection in the
Yakima valley for which Land Com
missioner Ross is now making last
ditch fight has been made public &C.
cording to a report from Washington
1t is learned that should the state win
it is entirely improbable that it will
ever benefit financially by it's victory
This is because, unless present plans
change the lands won't be reclaimed
as part Of the federal scheme for the
Sunnyside project but as part of the
Ledbetter project.
Under it's present plans the govern
ment will not extend the Sunnyside
system very far. A siphon system
across the river is proposed to en-
brace lands along the railroad in the
vicinity of Prosser. 1t is expected that
it will take several years to complete
the Sunnyside and Tieton projects
And the next project to be taken up is
the Kittitas unit, on the upper river
which itself will take several more
years to complete. After that the Led
better unit will be taken up. The rea-
son it has not been considered before
is that it will probably be as expen-
sive as the Palouse project, which is
estimated to cost about s3,OOO,000.
Under the Carey act the state must
put water on the land allotted to it by
the secretary Of the interior within ter
years The prospect is that the gov
eminent won't get around to the Led
better project in that time, and if il
does not and the state itself doesn't
step in and put water on it, the LAM
will revert to the government as re-
quired in the Carey act The probable
ity is that Ross won't win his fight
but it will be seen from the forego-
ing statement of conditions that ever
if he does it won't benefit the state a
bit.

Trading Stamps as Church Bait.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, Jan. SO.-Tradins
stamps as a means of getting children
to come to Sunday school to bring
other children with them and to con-
tribute boxes have proved so success
full in the First Methodist Episcopa]
Church South that Pastor Todd will
extend the innovation to the church
proper and allow the grownups to
share in his business like religious
enterprise.
Under Rev. Mr.. Todd's plan every
child who comes to Sunday school reg.
ularly receives 2-cent trading stamp
each time she or he is present. For
bringing new pupil a scent trading
stamp is issued and a 1-cent stamp is
given for each penny contributed to the
Sunday school plate. When the child
has 50 worth of stamps it is permitted
to select a present from a large stock
kept by the pastor.

BLACK EYES AND PuNcTuRED SKIN
DIXIE CASE COMES TO NAUGHT
IN JUDGE HUFTMAN'S COURT
YESTERDAY EVENING,

Well, Mr.. Tureman 'sashayed' ur
and hit me in the mouth and I guess
that is the way it started" explained
E. Arledge, a Dixie blacksmith. in
Judge Huffman's court yesterday af-
ternoon, testifying how a fight be-
tween MIN and A. Tureman. the veter-
an sawmill man, started at the post
Office at Dixie Saturday night. From
the appearance of the two men in
court the recent affair between Jack
CBrien and ''Lanky'' Bob was not a
marker TO the little scrimmage between
the two Dixie men, both of whom are
over 81 years old. Mr. Tureman beam
ed around the court room through two
oadly swollen optics, while Mr.. Ar
ledge hobbled painfully around the best
ne could with several portions of his

anatomy punctured by knife, which
fight. The row, according to Arledge
started, at the Dixie postoffice over
some remarks that Tureman made
about the recent dog poisoning cases.
There seems to nave been numerous
witnesses to the fracas, as half of the
population of Dixie was squeezed into
Judge Huffman's court listening to the
evidence late yesterday afternoon.
Although there was no doubt
that Tureman used knife on Arledge,
the court took the view that there was
considerable provocation and dis
charged the defendant.
