While Washington is apparently
perturbed over the guarded declara-
ton of the Japanese premier, con-
corning a diplomatic" settlement of
the California school situation. we
do not believe the situation will de-
velop hostility, because we believe
San Francisco will come down off her
high horse" and do the sensible
thing. when will avoid the Issue
put an age limit on attendance at the
public schools. AS shown by the gov
eminent report, so far undisputed,
there are 80 odd Japanese children
In the public schools, OF which num-
Der three are adults. Complaint is
made against adult Japanese going
to school with the little children
The trouble in California, according
to an official statement, also undis-
puted, is between union labor and
the Japanese coolies. All other Is
sues raised are artifcially propagat-
ed. Now, 1t is given out semi-ofi-
cially, that a new immigration treaty
with Japan, barring the coolies, is
dependent on the attitude of the
'Californians. In this Issue our ma
tional honor is at stake. In our
treaty with Japan it Is stipulated
that japanese citizens shall be ac-
corded all the rights and privileges
enjoyed by the subjects of any other
nation resident in this country. We
entertain unbounded sympathy for
the California people IN the peculiar
tribulations which their westward
prospect brings upon them, and our
comprehension Of the untrammeled
prerogatives OF a school board to
suspend charter provisions and to
decorate constitutional clauses with
naive, original constructions, have
been wonderfully enlarged of late;
but we doubt II even state legisla-
ture may invest a body of school
trustees with authority to abridge, de-
fine or abrogate the treaty making
power of the United States.

Both the Texas statesman and Muley
Abdul Azziz are too modern for their
people. In Fee it is the camera, the

Englishmen that has aroused the Mos

But as Morocco is Moslem TO the last

TO WHAT END?

To what end are we working? In
an article in the Chicago Record-Her-
aid, William F. Curtis, in discussing
the difference between New York and
London stores, says:
"In his business the British mer-
chant finds the means by which he
may live his home life according to
his taste. The American merchant
finds his life in the game of business
itself"
There is reason for the difference.
There is meat for reflection in the
comparison.
The British with their pure Anglo
Saxon and Norman blood, love order
and society and social enjoyment. We
have have their love of order but
with II we have a Teutonic intensity
of purpose. a Celtic enthusiasm and
a broad western horizon and the un-
trammeled hope of a new country.
These excuse the pace we are go
ing. but in New York, Pittsburg and
other large centers where opportuni-
ties have produced men with wealth
so great II embarrasses them, they
have developed a well defined leisure
class, something not contemplated in
the simple plans of the founders OF
our country. Now, we must learn
lesson from our elder cousin. The
English know how to spend their
time without wasting it. We do not.
We either devote all our time to bus
mess or we devote it to riotous liV-
ing. Many times an American gives
up his youth to the accumulation OF
wealth and position, and then, when
afiuence comes, he does not know
how to enjoy 1t. Realizing his mis-
take ne goes to the other extreme
with his children and teaches them
to grow up irresponsible spend
Thrills.
After all, isn't either kind of
life folly? What are we here for?
what are we working for?
Each man has allotted to him
some three score years In that time
he must work and play and sleep.
Does a slavery to Mammon accom-
plish any real good in the world?
Would we not be better off If we emu
lated the conduct of our more ex-
perienced British couslns-use our
business to an end, rather than con-
slider the business an end in itself?
We excel the English in our working
hours. but In our moments OF free
dom we lose all the advantage we
have gained in the other part OF the
day
Let us cultivate the social side, so
that when we lay down the yard
stick and close the ledger, we may
still be useful, even more useful citi-
zens than when our minds we're Ia
ken up with the daily cares ami rou-
tine OF trade.
There IS something more in life |
than financial gain. The women OF
the household perhaps. would be
content with less money and more
companIonship. It was well said of
Mr.. Dooley that the American heiress
must choose between securing IT,

tied husband by corresponding with
a woman she has never seen, and go
ing down to the board of trade and
calling one out.
We have gone business mad in
this country. OF late we have been
crying for practical education. Teach
our children things in school that
will fit them for immediate entrance
into the business world. Is the admo-
milton. Schools are not meant to
teach trade. They are meant to teach
the higher and better things of life.
To train the adolescent mind how to
think in straight lines; to develop
the capacity of the mind and soul, to
enrich the young intellect with
knowledge that will make its posses
sor and the world happier.
The words and works of Rockefel-
Ter and Carnegie and their peers are
worthy of attention in so far as they
throw light on the futility of mere
money getting. These men after years
of wealth accumulation are striving
with all their might to get something
out OF life in their remaining years.
II is this exclusive devotion to
business that has fostered political
corruption in America. We are too
busy to pay attention to politics, un-
less we are to gain some advantage
by interesting ourselves. at sucn
times usually to the disadvantage of
our fellow citizens. We would be a
better and freer people with small
er stores and purer politics.

jostling against them on the streets,
in the stores, riding with them on
railroad trains and in street cars, sit
ting beside them for hours at the
theater, in the parks, and it Is actu-
ally whispered, in the churches, but
1t Is always averred that bad men"
become devouring monsters, raw
head and bloody bones incarnate, at
the polls. How can these things be?
etc. without our special wonder?
AS for bad women, they are to be
encountered every day and hour in
the same way. Would there be great
err necessity for social contact at the
polls than any other place of BUSH
mess?
Would good women find time
from their household duties to mix
actively in politics?" What a ques-
ton in this day of clubs, card parties
and lodgesi Does the editor ever find
time from writing funny editorials to
look over the social columns of his
own paper?
A more serious question in the
near future may be: do not women,
especially of the leisure class, need
to study the duties of good govern
ment in order to conserve and de-
velop their own energies and powers,
instead of dissipating them in friv-
olous devices to kill time?
The editors humor never lets
up" to the last paragraph in which
he speaks of Influence" and con-
trolling votes. The truth is, as ev-
erybody knows, woman may, some
times, influence a mans vote. The
only vote she "can control is a
bought vote, or that of hen-pecked
husband. Heaven save us from see
ing in print a real mans honest opin-
ion of the woman who can do the lat
ter, or of the voter so controlled
There are people in this world who
believe that the necessity and habit
of wheedhng their way through life
accounts for most of the weaknesses
and artifices of the female" char
acter.
1t is a sad but indisputable fact,
that there are some bad-very bad
men in Office everywhere; they are
on councils. on school boards, in
legislatures and in congress.
When sensible, dignihed women
are interested in questions which
concern their homes and children,
which would be the more decent,
seif-respecting way to hep effect
righteous measures-to wheedle
around dirty politicians for days or
weeks trying to influence votes, as
many awakened" earnest women
are forced to do. or to take ten min
