THE SPECIAL ELECTION.

The Journal-Courier has already made plain It's beliefs as to the cleo ton yesterday of registrar of vital statistics. The mayor did right In ordering the special election upon the death of the late incumbent, James J. Carr, as provided under the terms of the city charter But there can be no question that a change should be had and by an amendment of the charter. If need be. The office Of registrar of vital statistics Is not one where politics should enter, nor is 1t one that should change hands fre- quently. Being purely clerical, 1t should be left to a good clerk indeh- nitely. When vacancy occurs 1t should be nlled by promotions from lower clerkships in the same office.
 This stand Is only made the more certain in view of the developments of yesterday, when but mere hand full of the polling list was In evidence to vote for either candidate. It was evident that the citizens had no great interest in the election and considered the office as properly non n-elective as does this paper Kicks were heard on every side, even among those few who did vote, and the great majority of the latter were on hand only be- cause of the very evident activities of the political powers-that-be with hacks and autos. Furthermore the unimportant election meant serious and needless interference with the business of a considerable number of men, among them the saloon keepers. Not only were the latter outspoken in their objections but their customers took their side.
 The whole principle of American elections depends for its success upon large turnout of voters and a big vote Elections are supposed to re- fleet the concensus of opinion of the citizens When the citizens are not willing to vote,as was the case yesterday, all elections tend to be- come unrepresentative and undigni- fled This is one charter change that New Haven needs and an agitation to bring that change about is imminent
 As for the successful candidate, he has our congratulations. The Journ- al-Courier had no well defined preju- dices for or against either of the gen. tlcmen named. Either would have done the work we'll

The Hartford Courant quotes an editorial from the New Haven Union, In which Hon. Thomas M Waller is spoken of favorably as the democratic candidate for governor, and then pointedly adds; Napoleon was ten years older in 1915 than In 1905 and was noticeably heavier. In 1905 he was at Austerlitz, In 1915 he was at Waterloo.'. To carry the reference further, does the Courant mean to ln- sinuate that George L. Lilley Is modern Duke of Wellington? There is plenty of reason to believe the con- trary that he will prove to have his many General Butchers, late to come up with their endorsements at the critical moment on November 8, when the political battle will occur.

A JAP COUNTS IDEAS.

Tn view of the immediate visit of the great American battleship fleet to Japanese waters and other recent de- velopments. copyrighted interview, published Sunday in the New York Times and the Boston Herald with Count Okuma of Japan Is of particu- lar interest. The count Is known far and wide as the mouth-piece of the jingoistic or war party in Japan. He has now been in retirement. as have also been his partys principles, since the close of the recent struggle with Russia and the establishment of peaceable relations by the Japanese peace party with all the world, Furth- ermore he has been widely known for years as "the undiplomatic diplomat For these reasons 1t might seem that what the count now has to say about any strained relations between his country and the United States would be of little weight True much of his reasoning appears unreasonable, but there are nevertheless more than few valuable and novel thoughts suggested, worthy of serious consid- eration.
 With the natural sagaciousness of his countrymen, Count Okuma recog- nizes the certainty that the Far East Is to be the checker board par excel lence for international rivalries, ann bitions, envyings, and. if 1t must be, | of International strife. He wisely recognizes the increasing importance that his own Flowery Kingdom is to hold by reason of its own advance, the development of China, nearby, as a world power and the growth in i'm portance of the Philippines and the South Sea Islands. As for the par ticular relations between his country and this the count can prophecy little that is peaceable. America Is striv- ing to acquire the control of the Pa cifc Ocean he says. The growth of Japan has inspired America with the intention of acquiring control of the Pacific Ocean" He finds proof of this belief In the expansion of the Ameri- can navy, in our great haste to com plete the Panama canal, and especial ly in the tenor of the speeches of our president.
 Americans think that Japan will usurp all the markets of China and drive the foreigners out of Asia" he says in tho interview. On the other hand he says: If the Pacific Ocean comes under the centrol of foreign countries, Japan will be reduced to a fatal condition. Furthermore he foresaes that, with her own advances J China will want newer and powerful navy, since "the Chinese believe that Japan will conquer them unless they conquer Japan" As, in his opinion the United States stands ready to lend China money provided China will or. der her new battleshlps from us he insinuates that a Chinese American friendship pact Is a certain thing of the near future. He therefore urges a strong alliance on Japan's part witt some power that has large fleet such as England.
