he was interested in their physical as well as their

The Navy Department has taken be-
lated action in the matter of the trial
trip of the L. s. S. Connecticut.
That vessel. the sister ship Of the
Louisiana. which was built under con-
tract at Newport News. Va, has been
in commission some months She was
constructed at the navy yard at New
York, and her trial trip will be OF
interest as affording a comparison of her
speed and other qualities with those OF
the contract-built Louisiana. No one has
fully understood why the Connecticut was
not tried at the time she was commits
stoned. At present she is at the Brook
lyn Navy Yard undergoing about 5000
worth of repairs rendered necessary by
the damage done when she grounded in
Porto Rican waters, an incident which
led to the court-martial and suspension
from duty Of her first commanding officer.
Il now appears that the Connecticut Will
have her trial trip OF the coast Of Maine

conspicuous failure 10 conduct such a
trip would lead 10 Congressional COM
ment at the next session that would
be annoying to the Navy Department
and would call for explanations which
might prove embarrassing TO that exeeu-
tive branch Of the government.
The results Of the trial trip are not
likely seriously 10 affect the troublesome
question Of the merits OF naval ships built
under contract as compared with those
built at government plants. No one to
this day knows the exact cost OF the
Connecticut. and it is impossible to OBJ
tain any precise estimate OF the actual
expense involved in her construction and
equipment The trial trip viii be bene-

OUTSIDE ENTANGLEMENTS.
We Are Following the Evil Example

From The S-n Francisco Chronicle
The Msgdalena bar yarn was evidently
inspired by the discovery Of the cprre-
spondents who are hurrying the battle
ship feet into Pacific waters, that the
United states Is deficient in MANY Of The
requisites necessary TO the successful car
rying ont Of such a movement. and they
are endeavoring to supply the deficiency
as rapidly as their imagination viii per
nit Il Is true that they are not working
in perfect accord with the State Depart
ment. which may have ideas Of its own
AT variance with the expansive desires OF
the big stick advocates, but slight dif-
hculties Of that kind are easily overcome
on papeT-far easier. indeed than they
can be in actual practice.
The MaEdalena Bay fake is an indica-
ton Of what We may expect from now on
until Congress meets. Unless all the
signs fail. we are to be treated 70 an
endless chain OF rumors. every link Of
which Will M In and strengthen the idea
that the United States needs an enor-
nous navy. There is no doubt that Il
does. There was a time when such a
necessity could have been safely secuted

Idly Of late that we are nearly in the
same condition as other nations whose

The Philippine Elections.

On Saturday of this week there will be
a striking event in the history of the
Philippines. on that date, for the first
time. the Filipinos will elect a house Of
representatives. Toward this occurrence
al nations who are governing colonies
are turning their attention. and il is not
too much 10 say that most of our world
neighbors believe that in thus try
ing the experiment Of partial self-govern-
ment for a people that. for the most part,
IS little better than savage, We are giving
an exhibition of overcOnddenCe which Is
likely 10 cause US trouble
The registration for the coming election
has been Disappointing in some respects.
All the well-known American campaign
paraphernalia were used-bOnfres. brass
bands, public meetings. and all the rest
but the native population did not seem TO
enthuse largely, and the results have been
meager. Out Of a total population Of
100000. according to the American cen
sus. it is said that the insular registra-
, ton may reach as high as $1,000 and this
includes some 500 Americans. In Manila.
with a population OF 220Oo0, the registra-
ton was 300. Altogether, about one sna-
, tive out OF every 80 viii be entitled 70
vote Some students OF the Philippine
situation declare that this small regis
t-ation is due to a desire on the part OF
the Filipinos 10 protest against a national
assembly, so-called. whose acts will have
no effect unless they are indorsed by an
upper council purely appointive In the
creation Of which they have no voice.
These commentators claim that the Fill
plnos want independence. and the anti
imperialists say that they are fit for II.
Nothing, perhaps, viii show the world
quite so effectively whether or not the
Filipinos desire and are prepared for self
government as this forthcoming expert
ment. The elections on Saturday will be
a liberal education in the practices of
sef-government. and are bound to inter
est greatly even the less educated among
the native population. They will be fruit
tul IN possibilities TO imperialist and anti
impeTielist alike. When the representa-
tive assembly is convened the world NAV
hear the Filipino voice raised legitimateTv
and, let us hope. inteIligently in its own
behalf. II is certain that from this gath
ering the world viii learn more than II
has ever known about the ambitions and
aspirations Of the natives: and if the
experiment shows that they are ft and
able TO govern themselves, there should
be no question as to their being given the
chance.

The summer vacation Of the French
Parliament must have come as won
derful relief for Premier Clemenceau
who, In spite Of his manifest abilities
and a sturdy patriotism, which has
helped him always to keep a firm hand
on the helm of state, has been beset bv

plause and laughter.
With a strong parliamentary majority
at his back, NJ Clemenceau has yet had
hard time, and problems have come up
for solution which well might have tried
the nerves and broken the heart Of a less
able man. First, there was the vital
question Of the separation Of church and
state in which the very powerful Roman
Catholic clergy and people were arraved

ment- Nor was the matter allowed To be
merely local The Catholics appealed
abroad and received marked sympathy
and warm support from other countries.

his bark through such shoals as this
and avoid disaster shows a capacity for
handling men and measures that Is mar
velous.
Hardly had he got the church matter
quieted and in fair way OF adjustment
before there came the vine-growers'
strike, which seemed. for time, to
threaten civil war: and this. too was a
situation that required great tact and
