ResponsibiIity Of the Press.

From the Springfield Republican.
The japanese government still has a
sufficient legal control over the press to
enable it 10 intervene officially in the
editorial conduct of the papers. as it did
recently at Tokyo. Advice 70 the edi-
tors not 10 print matter upon the Cali
fornia question Of a sensational or in
fammatory nature really means that
government censorship may he imposed
in case the advice be unheeded. This is
a strong measure, particularly az a time
when the political opposition is evidently
seeking for party capital Americans
should regard the measure as indicative
of the very active desire of the Mikado's
ministers TO restrain japanese jing0ism
and keep the people calm In this c0un-
try no such administrative measure ls
possible. but the American press cannot
fail to be reminded BY the incident Of its

over Sio0.0o0.000 Is spent annually in
teachers wages in the United States pub
lie schools, vet as class teachers are
more poorly paid than any other workers.
The average wage in some States is far
less than that of a messenger boy or
streetsweeper; even less than the law
allows for the support Of criminal in

greater part of the mental and moral
training that will make the pupil a fit cit

has been saved from illiteracy. They have

later become component parts of Ameri-
