what win the People Saw to 1t

A world power! A strong centralized
government Subordination of the States.
A paternal eye upon everything! Execu-
tive rule In Cubai Colonial possessions
governed from Washington!
Is this the American Republic?
The Hon. Elihh Root is the ablest man
that has come upon the public stage in
two decades. We respect and honor him.
He has rightly been regarded as one OF
the most potent forces for safety in the
administration. But the speech he made
in New York on Wednesday night is as
amazing as any utterance Of William
amazing because of its boldness. Ad-
mitting every word of it to be true. as
to the present state of affairs. think OF
the American premier feeling called upon
to proclaim such doctrine to the world!
He deplores conditions which have
brought about the demand for govern

less when confronted with important
problems, that the time is come when the
nation must acquiesce in new order OF
things? Is the system under which we
have waxed great and strong after all.
a failure? Have We really outgrown the
Constitution?
Secretary Root has forced home to the
people a startling situation. The drift of
things has long been all too apparent TO
observing men. It is no longer a drift.
The time for theorizing has passed. Are
the people ready for a change ii our form
Of government? Are the sovereign States
ready for it? What will sober-minded
Americans say in the final analysis?
1t is the honest opinion of this news
paper that even so able man as Elihu
Root cannot bring his countrymen to his
way of thinking on the subject. Theodore
Roosevelt himself cannot do It.
The Washington herald., 1906-12-14
California and the Iapanese.

Was Secretary of Root thinking OF
California and the japanese question
when he said, in his address before the
Pennsylvania Society Of New York, that
no state can live unto itself alone and
regulate It's affairs with sole reference
! to its own treasury. its own convenience,
its own special tnterests?"
Every State" the Secretary tell US,
'is bound to frame it's legislation and its
administration with reference not only 20
its own special affairs, but with refer
ence to the effect upon all its sister
States"
If these maxims Of political conduct
were intended TO apply 10 the course Of
California with respect to the education
of japanese in separate schools, we
think they ignore u very important ele-
ment in the relations of the Federal and
the State governments. namely. the
guardianship Of the former over the lat
ter. There are Federal obligations as
well as State rights. From this point Ct
view Mr.. Roots maxims might be re-
versed with equal, and we are inclined
to think juster, applicability to the
California situation. Suppose Mr.. Root
had said that the Federal government
has no right TO conduct its foreign ar
fairs without reference to the interests
Of particular States, and that no Secre-
tary of State had any business negotiat-
ing treaty which ignored the constitu-
tional distribution Of power between the
Federal government and the States.
would he not have come nearer 10 an
accurate statement Of the rule which
should govern our national course Of
action? In other words, have not the
States as much right TO ask that their
special interests be regarded by the na-
Jional government as the national gov
ernment has to demand that the national
interests shall be regarded by the States .
In this japanese affair, the administra-
ton has seen fit 10 champion the cause
of a foreign country as against the legis-
IatiOn of one Of the States of the union
legislation that IN itself Is not injurious
to any American interest or repugnant
to any principle of our American insti-
tutions. If Mr. Roots theory as to the
duties of the States were accepted by
California, she would regulate her educa-
tional affairs, not with regard to her own
interests, but in accordance with the
views Of the Secretary Of State, who
thinks the Interpretation of an ambiguous
treaty in such a way as to placate the
suscepdbilities of a foreign nation of
more Importance to the national welfare
than the preservation of our domestic
institutions and the sustentation Of do
nestle legislation intended to promote
public morals.
We do not think this conception Of the
functions Of the Secretary Of State defen-
sible or constitutional Cannot our foreign
relations be maintained without subvert-
ing the structure of our government?

done, In fact,

or wrong-dealing Of one merchant may
give a fatal blow 10 the whole export
trade of a province. Therefore, Germany
has boards of survey who supervise the
export trade and seek to correct such evils
as those which Consul-General Fowler
points out
The time has passed when any old thing
is good enough for China. Her merchants
are as shrewd as any in the world close
buyers, perhaps. but just, and their words,
in business. are absolutely to be relied
upon. With so many would-be sellers
knocking at their door. they have no need
to go begging for custom, and It behooves
the American merchant to make special
and honest efforts to hold this important
trade in line
