Too Much Money.

In the North American RerieU for July
10 Mr.. ELLIS H. ROBERTS deals with a
phase OF our national finances from a
very sane point of view. Mr.. ROBERTS
writes with a clear knowledge OF his
subject, obtained through four years of
experience as Assistant Treasurer 1850
s3) and eight years uss7-19o5) as Treas
urer of the United States. He argues
that our huge surplus is a wrong to
the people Of the country.
The announcement, made a short time
ago, that our revenue for last year ex-
ceeded our expenditures by some Ss7 ,0OO,-
900 was hailed with general satisfaction
as indicative of u financial soundness.
Certainly a surplus Is better than a
deficit, but from Mr.. RoBERTs's point Of
view this huge surplus becomes "a mon

Fudge. How could the injunction of a
Federal Circuit Court OF an opinion by
the sitting Judge negative" the new
rate law in North Carolina? There are
two courts that might negative" such
legislation: n is the Supreme Court Of
North Carolina and the other is the
Supreme Court Of the United States; but
the latter would have no jurisdiction
unless a constitutional question were
involved. Such a question is involved
in the litigation yer the rate law in
North Carolina, the Southern Railway
Company contending that the enforce
nent by the State Of the two and a quar-
ter cents a mile passenger rate would
amount to c~oniscation: therefore the
company invokes that safeguard of the
Fourteenth Amendment which says that
no State shall deprive any person Of
life, liberty o property without due
process of law" In their own right the
ticket agents Of the company who we're
sentenced TO the chain gang for selling
tickets at the old rate also invoke the
Fourteenth Amendment.
II is, of course, true. as Governor
Conner fears, that the assumption Of
power" by the Federal courts in the
North Carolina case would destroy the
word sovereign when written before
the word State-that is, IL the Southern
Railway Company could prove that to
enforce the two and a quarter cents
rate would be to deprive it of its prop
crty; for it lie indisputable that when a
State violates the Constitution il ceases
TO be a sovereign in its own right and
must acknowledge the primacy Of the
United States.

THE BLAME FOR LAWLESSNEsS.
Are the Police Doing h Duty Better
Than the MAStstrstesr

To TER EDITOR OF THs SrS-Sir: OF late
We have read and heard much about the In
sfAcisncy Of our police department and the
poor police protection given to citizens In
the suburban districts Of Greater New York.
Although the number of police. especially In
o~utlyins. dihtricts. 10 proportionately small In
the territory to be covered, the department..
I believe. In doing its Utmost to stamp out
crime and particularly to prevent the das-
tardly outraRes Of late 80 often perpetrated
on women and children.
We hear Of it quickly by top liners In SEN
~sational papers when an individual on the
police force forgets his duty, when n so
to a policeman, but do We often hear OF the
miscarriage OF law after the police depart
ment has performed its duty and brought the
culprit before the bar Of Justice? Why In
the irst link in the chain Of Justice 80 closely
inspected and why are the other important
links Of this necessary chain. the court and
punishment. so much disresardedf
According to q report furnished by the
police department. there have recently been
more than 100 arrests Of persons charged with
assault or women and children. n at least
half OF these prisoners were promptly released,
In one case in Queens, In which a revolving
charge was made, the honorable Magistrate

gether, to embark ON a war with Japan,
knowing that an attempt to seize a scrap
Of Japanese territory would be followed
by the joint interpretation Of the fleets
and armies OF Great Britain, France and
Russia on the side Of the assaulted. Il is
even possible that the three treaties
mentioned might be 80 construed that
Great Britain and France would announce
to the United States or Germany that
they could not permit such a destruction
OF Japan's navy a might prove prelimi-
nary to land conquest.
Japan. then, is safe against aggression
for a while, but IL does not follow that
she may herself become an aggressor
with impunity. The g%uarantors Of her
possessions would not uphold her tn a
contest wantonly provoked by the Toxic
Government, and against such a move
upon her part Great Britain and France
could be relied upon to apply a moral
pressure which would be almost ire
sistible. Jspan's only hopes Of efecting
a conversion of her foreign debt, which
now bears a high rate of interest, and
Of procuring the great additional sums
which are indispensable 70 the develop
ment of her own internal resources and
those Of her Corean dependency, lie in
England and France. Without their help
her financial condition at home will be
well nigh insupportable, and she will
have to postpone or abandon her plans
for the agricultural, industrial, forest
and mining exploitation of Corea.
When we recall that less than a
dozen years ago France, Russia and
Germany wrenched from Japan the prize
of the Liao-tung peninsula, which she
had gained from China, and that Great
Britain stood by, an impassive spectator
OF the act, we must recognize how men,
orable is the triumph achieved by Jap
anese arms and Japanese diplomacy, in
that three Of the Powers named have
been brought TO guarantee her posses
