GONE FAR ENOUGH.

The people Of the United States arc
no doubt unwilling that the president
should 20 any further than he has al
ready gone in exercis.n g his executive,
legislative and judicial functions. He
has brushed aside important precs'
dents, has put very broad construc
tions upon the constitution in its ap-
plieation to things which he desired 70
do. and has leaned far towards ex-
IRENE federalism In many ways. But
there seems to be a steadily growing
sentiment that he has gone quite far
enough In this respect. The people Of
San Francisco have a right to man
age their own schools just as the PEG
pie of New York or the people of
Alabama have. They established
those schools. they support them, and
the institutions do not interfere with
amy of the federal laws. 1t is natural
therefore, that a people Of any locality
should resent an effort to have their
schools managed from Toxic az o
