quently the government has required

OF troops are being rushed into Poland
where martial law really prevails.
louses are forcibly entered and
searched; men and women r being
arrested and thrown into prison with
out process of law and without any
redress. The ukase ordering a new
election for members of the douna

Poland. The car must have a parlia-

laws as the reactionists desire or it
will not be allowed to sit. This was

A STATE QUESTION.

We are glad to see that the News
and Observer, along with the other
napers OF the cities of the inland
section of the state has come to the
aiu of the people of Wilmington in
the endeavor 20 secure from the fed
eral government a sufficient appro-
priation for giving u city a thirty
foot channel to the sea. In another
column we publish a strong editorial
from hat paper in advocacy OF the
movement, The News and Observer
has crashed the situation. II under
stands that this is not a local affair;
that while the consummation of the
nlan would be OF great advantage to
onr civ that not Wilmington alone
would benefit by the deepening Of the
channel from our city to the sea, out
that such work would enure to the
benefit of the whole eastern and ped
mont section of the state. This Is d
state matter the Wilmington people
are advocating and they want the AID

JAPAN AND THE PHILIPPINES.

France was quick to take notice OF
the growing sentiment in Japan in
favor of enforcing the Monroe doctrine
in the far east. She hastens to clinch
her right of possession of her Indian
territory. Japan needs money. French
bankers have it t lend, but the for
mer cannot get it without doing more
than paying the market rate of inter
est Taking advantage of Japan's
necessity to raise a foreign loan France
allows her to place it on the Paris
market in return for Japan's guardn-
tee Of title by France to her posses
sions in southern Asia. She is now in
possessions and her money lenders al e
making good interest out of the Japan
csc government.
Our government might save itself
future trouble over the Philippines
by p%atterning after France. Japan
could easily place a loan in this coun-
try. No doubt she would gladly buy
the Philippines from our government
and would pay a big price for the is
lands were she given time in which 10
make the payments. In the meantime
American money lenders could be
making good interest on a big loan to
that government. Wouldn't that be
the most sensible solution to the Phil
ippine question? If we hold on to
those islands we are going to nave
trouble with Japan over them. They
have already cost u people more
lives and money than they are or
ever will be worth to this country. 1t
would be the most sensible thing to
get rid of them while we can do so
with credit to ourselves. The trade
we will get with the east through
holding these islands as a base CT
commercial operations will never pay
the cost in men and money of holding
them. We do not believe in allowing
any nation to force US to give up the
islands. They belong 10 us and we
should hold them against all opposi-
ton. but it would be we'll to get rid
of them in an honorable way.

TIE WAY OF POLICEMEN.

Brother Reece, of the Greensboro
Record, thinks some of the new mem
bers of his city's board Of aldermen are
too inquisitive as to the private affairs
Of the members of the city's police
force. He does not think they should
be inQuiring so closely into the why
and wherefore Of members of the force
wearing out the seats Of their pants
faster than they do the sOles OF thei'
shoes. We think Brother Recess con
plant OF rather criticism OF the ex-
cessive zeal of the new city fathers is
quite natural, and We know his posi-
ton has the endorsement OF every
member of that city's police force, 1t
is perfectly natural that any police
man should prefer to wear out The seat
If his trousers rather than the soles
IF his shoes, especially when the city
furnishes the former and ne mas 10
buy the latter. On this subject We
find the following i'll the Record:
Members of the new board OF al
dermen should stop asking so many
questions. The other day n wanted
to know who paid for the trousers OF
the policemen. He was told the Guy,
Then he wanted to know VINO palo
for the shoes and was told the ofncers
paid for them. Then he volunteered
the suggestion that if the officers had
to pay for their trousers they would
last much longer, like the shoes. This
is downright mean, an intimation that
they sit around and e out the seats
of their pants, but AXE good are not
to walk much and thus save their
shoes.

GENERAL MILES ON TIL JNpA-
MISE SITUATION

In his Bunker Hill day address Cen
eral Nelson A. Miles expressed the be-
lief that war with Japan was a 20 l.
bility. As 10 the results of such n a
he is quoted as having said:
L can f~"rcsec some loss To ~ at
the beginning. with perhaps the loss
Of some cities on the coast, and in
the Pacific We might los" the Philip
pines and the Sandwich islands. But
the republic would still exist. and in
the md the struggle would be like
a slap -lVen by an infant on a giant
II would be serious later on for tn"
infant"
The Charlotte Chronicle commenting
on the expression some loss to us in
the beginning" says that the Japanese
would take the Philippines about as
quickly as Dewey did Manila, and that
if the wal would stop there it would
be a good thing for the country If war
would come. The Chronicle does not
express many opinions which We do
not endorse, but this is one time We
cannot go with il. We would hate to
see the Japanese forcibly take the
Philippines from our country. and If
il were to come to that We would cx-
pect to find Tie Chronicle taking It's
stand along with us.
