Japanese|s.
No Citizen.

Masakechi Susuki the japanese
who would be citizen of the United
States, was this morning turned down
by Clerk Murphy in his application for
naturalization papers. Cables were
sent yesterday afternoon on the mat
ter, and 1t is inferred that these
brought back the order not to grant
the naturalization. However that may
be, the local officials are puZzling over
the question as to how the son of
Nippon ever was allowed to take out
his declaration of intention papers In
New York. II has been found out that
these papers. which he showed as ev.
idence, were genuine, and the only cx-
PLANTATION that can he given is that
they were made out by some under.
clerk who did not realize what he was
doing
The latest development in the
whole case is the fact that the Jap
anese, when he asked for his natural.
ization papers. stated that he wished
to get work at Puuloa, at Pearl Har.
Dor, where the Federal work Is going
on. In order that he would not be
turned down in his application for a
job because Of his non-citizenship, the
man thought that he would take out
his naturalization papers.
Whether or not, Susuzi will make
n test case of It Is not known AS yet
On account of the fact that 1t has
been established that the declaration
papers were genuine, II might seem
that he would have a fairly good case

4. !. Moore
For Sheriff

The latest candidate In the polt.
ical field for Sheriff on the Demo.
cratic ticket is II. T. Moore. His
friends. who have been quietly work.
ing in his behalf, are now certain that
he is the strongest man they can put
up at the coming election.
One of the staunch Democrats In
speaking of the situation today said
that Moore will be given unanimous
support of the party. VIM. Jarrett,
the present Deputy Sheriff, will be
induced to hold his position rather
than aim for the Sheriffship. Some
Democrats think that Jarrett Is not
strong enough 10 get the support of
the majority of the party and on that
account n committee will be selected
to consult with him before the conven.
ton takes place.
Moore could not be seen today and
therefore his views could not be as
certained.

THE PERSIAN CONFLICT.

sia in that it is between progress ana Feacloh

hans if is even more marked IN Persia lnah III

Czar-Iord Curzon lfkened his tone toward his
subjects TO that which Darius or ArtaAerAe'
might have employed-while the constitution
which has been granted. and which the PerslahS
are irving TO establish is, on the whole more
litaraI and advanced than that of Russia. Inc
likeness between the two has been helghteheu
by the organization Of massacres anu pS the
dismissal of the parliament and the ordering ol

There is a marked difference between the TWO
cases. however. in this, that, While IN Russia

stitutionalism, in Persia the Shah is bitterly
hostile TO it. OF course, Nicholas III might he

the constitution That act was done by his
father in the last year of his life, and was 1T
the time opposed by the crown prince. although
no did sign the document. Now that Mohammed
has succeeded TO the throne, he does not venture
to abrogate the constitution which he swore to
maintain. but he improves every opportunity Of
showing his detestation of it and Of making Its
workings as difficult possible.
IT is reasonable presumption that he has
dissolved the parliament and has ordered cleo
tions in the hope that the new body will be
more plant TO his Will than the old one has
shown itself TO be. That plan was tried In

DEMOCRACY AND EDUCATION.

If as one report runs, some of the students at
the New York University summer school con-
strued DR.. Andrew s. Drapers remarks on the
educational situation as a bold attack upon de-
mocracy the incident affords only another Illus
tration of the very evil which the State Com
missioner of Education deplores. The 'undemo-
cratic" view taken by DR.. Draper last Monday
has. TO be sure. superficially certain un-amer-
lean atmosphere. He said
In foreign countries boys expect to follow
their fathers, and expected to stay in the
class where they begin. Here all are encour-
aged to move out of their class and do q more
intellectual kind of work than their fatherS did,
In other words our educational system. acting
upon national temperaments. often leads
children into mischief. It often encourages
them to undertake things Tor sWhlch tney are
not fitted.
This is no brief against ambition. But it is
a wise criticism of the all too prevalent ten
dency to infer, from the supposed superiority
of intellectual labor, the moral necessity OF Sc
curing an armchair job. This fallacy sends
hundreds of young men and women to college,
there to be educated beyond their intelligence
or-worse getaway from their gifts. 1t breeds
In school children q scorn of trades and has
doubtless hindered the upbuilding of a sensible
system of industrial education In this country.
1t has raised up host Of persons who, without
special love or aptitude for the work, gladly

forces which, to speak in terms of exaggeration,
are bringing the country to the pass where there
will be lawyer for every client, physician
for every patient, and a private secretary, book
keeper or office man for every room in every
skyscraper.
Instead Of attacking democracy Dr. Draper
assails the intellectual caste system which, po-
tentialy at least. is menace to the prosperity
of the country, If not also to our national insti-
tutions.

CHAMPIONS OF MEDICAL RESEARCH.

Under the conviction that medical progress
would be seriously hampered If experiments on
animals should be prohibited, more than thou
sand men and women in England have just or
ganized society the object Of which Is to make
public their side of the case Its members are
not drawn exclusively from the ranks of the
medical profession. Many of them come from
other departments of activity, and more than
few are reported to be associated with move
ments for the prevention of cruelty to animals,
At the head of the organization is Lord Cromer,
the statesman whose eminent administrative
service in Egypt, covering a quarter Of cen
tury, ended last year.
In letter TO the press Lord Cromer refers to
the testimony taken few years ago before the
Royal Commission on Vivisection. This he ar-
firms. shows that the experiments In question
ARE conducted with proper care, and that the
amount of pain or discomfort inflicted is inslg-
"nifcant compared with the great gain to
knowledge" He adds that 'the Research De-
fence Society,"" the newly formed association.
will try to make it clear that those who carry
on the investigations under discussion are mot
less humane than their fellow countrymen."
The campaign of education which 1t Is proposed
to conduct has already opened with the publica-
tion Of two pamphlets. One contains the testi-
mony of Lord Justice Fletcher Moulton before
the Royal Commission on Vivisection. The
other describes one Of the specific instances
in which vivisection has led to results OF great
value. Colonel David Bruce tells the story, and
the scene is laid in Malta
For many years mysterious fever distressed
the British garrison On the island. So great
were its ravages that hundreds of officers and
soldiers were sent home annually on sick leave
Sanitary improvements did no good, and the
search for a cew to the mischief long remained
fruitless. At length by experiments Oh animals
a body of experts selected by the royal society
determined that the fever due TO microbes

sumed in Malta. ThereupoR the proper steps
to check the use of infected milk were taken.
and the result was marvellous. In 1905 the
number of cases reported was 643. Two years
later ii was only seven.
The further presentation of facts and argu-
ments by the Research Defence Society will be
awaited with lively interest on both sides of the
Atlantic That the practice of vivisectiOn has
been attended with occasional abuses can hardly
be questioned. That such abuses should be
prevented is equally beyond doubt. So great an
outc-y has been raised over this phase Of
the subject, however, that there has been dan
ger that the real benefits secured would not be
recognized. For long time the public has
heard little except criticism Of yivisectiOn- 1t
tunity to listen to the other side of the case.
The defence has been opened in particularly
dignifed courteous and able manner which
cannot fail to make en- excellent impression on
fair-mnded persons

REVOLUTIONARY.

Hot weather and sleepless nights drive man
to invention. sometimes. So 1t is not surpris-
ing that this protracted period of high tempera-
ture has inspired an idea of q house always
COOL breeze in every room. The originator
having recently had, like most men. unusual
opportunities for studying the revolving FAM and
being filled with admiration of it's capabilities,
was struck with the thought that instead of
living in front of one and reinforcing its cool
ing drafts with other cooling drafts, he would
be happier if he could live in one. Why not
build house on the principle Of q revolving
fan and then live in the very centre of that
aerial commotion which its rotation produces!
Happy thought. A breeze in every room and
every room in breeze, Who would not be glad
to have had that inspiration on one of these hot
days? The very contemplation of it reduces the
temperature and makes existence endurable
like promise Of thunder showers in the
weather predictions.
AS a mental relief from heat the planning OF
q rotary house should be almost effective as
giving money to a Peary polar expedition. But
on reflection we had rather think about re-
volving house than live In one. 1t reminds us
Of the Purple Cow-wed rather see than be
one. 1t is too revolutionary, much too revolu-
tionary. Fancy the difficulty Of entering re-
volving house, through a revolving door-every
one has had a foretaste Of the troubie-when
revolving something in your mind Who would
think of attempting 1t? No, 1t were better far
TO sit before a revolving fan, an electric button
within reach, and revolve a revolving house in
mind than to venture into the contraption and
participate in the revolution.
