Secretary Root, who made speech
in New York week ago, in which he
appeared to take the position that the
treaty making power granted TO the
executive department of the National
government by the Constitution, says
the Port Huron Daily Times, renders
treaties with foreign governments SUI
preme laws of the land, overriding
state law and even the Constitution
itself. now says that he was misun-
derstood. Ills speech was intended to
be an appeal TO the states To enact laws
more in harmony with the present ma
tional sentiment among the people and
for the common good, and not threat
10 nulify local laws by national laws
or the exercise of executive powers.
Certain II is that the people at large
would never tolerate such interference
with their local affairs as the enforced
attendance at the public schools of
people of other and alien races by
treaty fats anything else of similar
nature. Home rule in local affairs
is the true policy. and right that
the people viii not surrender TO the
National government, even if they
are forced TO concede the supreme
authority OF their state governments
in everything not specifically assigned
TO the Federal government by the
Constitution.

we have SO long boosted OF the
greatness and prosperity of our coun-
try, of the superiority of our govern
ment To the monarohical governments
OF Europe that we are in no condition
OF mind for self-inspeetion or self
criticism. President Roosevelt, in
his late message, made the somewhat
original and TO many doubtless as
founding observation that the Japa-
nese were in position 10 teach us
many things. 1t would be of more
value 10 the United States than the
amount Of our national debt added TO
the billions we have paid for pensions
IL we were able To recognize with
humility that many other nations can
leach us many things.-In many re-
spects we are behind what we are
pleased TO call the effets monarchies
az Europe. AS for example in Eng
land and other foreign countries the
Parcels Post system has been in prac-
tice for many years and in every coun-
try where it has been tried il has been
approved and added greatly TO the
comfort. economy and convenience of
the people. In our own country where
rural free delivery has been so widely
and so benefciently extended the par
cells post ought by all means to be in
troduced. The things that stand be-
