Regrouping of Great Powers.

A military convention. which 10 effect
amounts to full defensive alliance has
been made between Great Britain, France
and I;aly. This momentous instrument
has not nominally come into effect as yet,
but in reality it is already an almost
dominating factor in the European situa'
ton. 1t becomes operative whenever
this Triple Alliance between Germany,
Austria. Hungary and Italy. or rather the
the three treaties usually grouped under
that designation. shall expire "either BY
expiration oftimeor by any other cause. !"
This regtouping Of great powers is q
natural outcome OF the destruction OF the
balance of power 10 Europe consequent
upon paralysis of Russia in the Japanese
war.
1t is an important step in the forms-
ton of league OF peace-the great OBJ
ject which King Edward has labored to
achieve ever since be came to the throne
Of Great Britain. II has behind 1t the
cordial support of Spain and Portugal.
There is good reason for believing that
it commands also the sympathy of the
United States government, which has
been we'll aware OF its inception and
purposes.
The creation of this new international
compact has been accompanied and fol-
lowed by serious difficulties and even
dangers. First and obviously was the
fact that Germany would regard 1t not
only with natural resentment, but as q
direct menace. 1t was negotiated on the
eve of the Algeciras conference, and it
can hardly be denied that 1t was design
ed to some extent to act in restraint Of
Germany at that time. Its purpose,
however, is, in every respect, non-ag-
gressive, and it Was and is impossible
for the German emperor TO criticise it
except by abandoning his oft protested
love of peace.

The POSSIBLE effect on the Congress
sionsl elections of the exclusion of Jap
anese children from the public schools o.
San Francisco is worrying the President
more than what course Japan may take
10 the matter. The administration will
invoke the Sixth article of the Oonstitu
ton, which provides that treaties shall
be the supreme law of the land, to test
the right of San Francisco to exclude
Japanese children from the public schools
IN violation of treaty obligations. This,
of course, will raise the question OF States
rights.
