And another Of the Judges who decided
the Iast-mentioned case deemed the de-
cIston in the knight case a sufficient JUS
+i6cation for holding that the business

Tobacco case did not constitute interstate

effect was as follows:
Their business is manufacturing. and the
fact that they get their raw material IN

ANOTHER DIUENSI0N.

In the magnitude of the engineering
problems solved. in its cost and in its
importance to the community the new
Pennsylvania tunnel is the greatest work
Of the sort in New York 1t dwarfs the
subway and the McAdoo tunnels as
much as they dwarfed the elevated rail
roads, which in their time were the
citys flIrthest advance in transporta ton
facilities. 1t brings Long Island many
minutes nearer to the centre of the city.
Jamaica is now as easily and quickly
accessible to downtown New York as
Harlem--a fact which it is hard for a
public TO realize which has been accus-
toned TO make its way to Long Island
points by one or two car lines, ferry
and then. at last, a railroad. And COM
muting New Jersey is also brought as
the city without change of cars and in a
few minutes.
In fact. il may be said that the new
tunnel has opened up a potential Harlem
to the east and another to the west Of
New York. We do not mean that condi-
tions to the north will be reproduced
also east and west. or that they should
be. but that population, being DO longer
confined to the north and south channel,
will flow eastward and westward, and its
movement will bring about the provision
Of purely local transportation lines, TAX
ing home builders out into Queens IN
the same way that such lines have
hitherto taken them TO the north. The city
has gained new dimension. The east
ward and westward movement Of pOpu-
latiOn. with ferries far from the main
channels Of traffic to cross, has never
been on q par with the northward move
ment It begins to be. NorthWard Is
ceasing 10 be the line Of least resistance.
What a rebuke is the successful com
pletion Of tits daring project TO those
little New Workers. who fear to see the
city do more than add somewhat to the
existing subway in making provision for
the transportation OF its increasing
population. Those proposed additions
recognize only one dimension IN the city.
They are conceived With the vision of
those who more than ten years ago
planned the present subway to serve the
north and south movement. With a
similar timidity, the Pennsylvania would
simply have enlarged its ferryboats III
stead of building this great and costly
tunnel

TIE POINTS ON WHICH We LOSE

TIE POINTS on WHICH We LOSE
The regret which is expressed at the
adverse decision on two American claims
in the fisheries controversy is real anC
has some und0ubted basis i'll reason, but
it Will be well to avoid eXaggerating II
into q belief that the verdict as q whole
is unfayora bic to American interests
On one Of the points demur 70 the de
cision would strongly SAVIOR of a some
what shortsighted selfiShness, while the
other has been SO much disputed toI
many wears that We shall not hope Il
see Il quite satisfactorily disposed OF
until # IS passed upon by some great
tribunal Of international law The de
cree that American fishermen shall be
subject TO 'reasona bic" municipal regu
lations Siuply means that they shall
have 10 greater rights than British fish
ermen in British waters. That seems 70
be fair. II IS also probable that it viii
prove in the end profitable, since il viii
permit the enforcement Of rules for the
conservation Of the fisheries and for the
prevention Of such destructive methods
OF fishing as have proved disastrous il
some Of our own coast waters.
As for the other point, the headlands

the views Of American iurists have beer
various Kent suggested that we might
claim control Of waters inside q line
drawn from headland 10 headland, Is
from Cape Ann to Cape Cod, or from
the southern extremity Of Florida to the
delta Of the Mississippi, while Woolsey
| held that such q claim would be out Of
character for this country and opposed
to the spirit Of the age Buchanan, il
lS49. declared that the exclusive iuris
diction Of the nation extended 10 the
ports, harbors, bays, mouths Of rivers
and adjacent parts Of sea inclosed by
headlands, while Fish. in 1879, hoped
that that doctrine was, without eXcep
ton, thing of the past. Such bays rs
New York, Delaware and Chesapeake
have long been held 10 be territorial
waters. though under strict applica tion
Of the three mile rule the central parts
OF them would surely be high seas. The
inGentati0ns Of the Newfoundland ceast
are numerous and marked, but they are
scarcely as much landlocked as the three
which we have just mentioned.
What seems highly desirable is that
there shall be some fixed and universal
Bractice on that subject. as there is con
cerning the Three-mile limit along open
COASTS. The dictum of Perels is indis-
pEtabIe, that the security Of state re-
alljres the possession of its marginal
waters But what are its marginal
waters? A threemile strip along an
open coast. Of course. and therefore also
tha waters of bay whose entrance IS
not more Than six miles wide and also IN
the latter case Il three-mile strip outside
a line drawn from headland to headlanL
But IL the entrance is seven miles wide,

~ EXPERIMENT.

The Democratic party in Connecticut
made an interesting experiment yester-
dav when it nomin2<ed Judge Simeon l.
Baldwin. Of New Haven, for Governor.
Judce Baldwin can without dlsreSpect
he called an old-fashioned Democrat
He said in accepting the nomination that
he had not had an opportunity to SPEAK
his mind in a public meeting for elShteeh
wears That period Of enforced silence
stretches back beyond the advent ol
Rrvsnism as the dominant force II
Democratic politics. Judge baluW4h
formed his political ideas before william
7 BRYAN had learned TO read and write.
He is a Democrat whose education III
the faith goes back to the days OF BucA-
anan and Douglas. His elevation 70
leadership in Connecticut after twelve
wears Of modernism have reduced the
Democracy to a shadow OF its former
self means. therefore, break with the
present and return TO the past WnoSe
effects on the voters will be watched
with lively interest. Can the party
come back by virtue of an appeal to
the Democratic ideas and standards OF
another generation On such terms Is
Connecticut ready 10 welcome it back
The active participation in politics Of
men of Judge Baldwin's high character,
great learning and admirable attain
ments is always to be commended. The
people of Connecticut have only esteem
for him personally. How far he Is III
touch with the present-day sentiment of
the state can be judged better when he
begins TO amplify his political opinions
and apply them 70 current problems.
/ Connecticut will give the Democratic
nominee a respectful hearing. But II
will Judge his candidacy by the success
which he achieves in adapting himself
TO new conditions and i'll proving his ca
pacity to satisfy the popular demand
everywhere SC strongly manifested, for
progressive policies as well as higher
standards in public life.
