IN WOODROW WILSON'S STATE.

AT the special election in jersey City
on Tuesday. the commission plan OF
government was rejected by a vote
of 1891 to 1852 This is the fourth
of the Jersey cities that have rejected
tile plan advocated by Governor Wood
row Wilson. ana those who were ar
rayed In opposition are said to be
them declaring that the licking which
they gave II was another black eye
for Governor wilson" However that
may be. II Is certain that many OF
the best citizens OF the communities
In which these elections have been
held voted for the commission form
of municipal government and II Is
not at all likely that Governor Wilson
and his supporters will be influenced
by these reverses to give up the fight.
Naturally, the Old Guard who have
controlled the municipal affairs of the
Jersey towns all these years will not
back down. 1t means bread and meat for
them; neither is it to be expected that
~ 'oNPuS Gus MILO would nave lnelr
affairs managed in more business
like manner will abandon their deter
mination TO rescue their communities
from the control of the bosses and
their heclers
Governor Wilson has a good deal
OF the war spirit in him. and we may
confidently expect him to come back
with reinforcements. If he would sive
his attention more closely to the af-
fairs of his own little plantation for
the present and stop making plans for
the whole country, he would find his
larger ambition within nearer reach
next year. Especially should he re-
frain from encouraging the capture of
tho country by the adoption of plans
that arc not Democratic in principle.

NO CHANCE no FIGHT yApAy.

Under the old treaty II was
PROVIDED that in case of war be-
tween Japan and the United States.
Great Britain should lend aid to
Japan, Under the new treaty Great
sritain Is precluded from giving
support to Japan In connict
with the United States. This results
from tho terms of the general arbitra
tion treaty made between Great Brit
ain ana the United States. The news
papers In Japan have been discussing
the new treaty that country has made
with this. The Government press IS
ieHcitating Japan upon this result be-
heving that the new treaty practicable
removes any possibility of war be-
tween Japan and the United States.
while the minority newspapers critt-
cize the treaty, because, in their opin
ION 1t gives the United States all the
better position and weakens the no
sition OF Japan.
5oth countries are TO be congratu-
la'ed upon the treaty. as it makes for
the peace OF the world and the pros
perity of both Japan and the United
States. Ii Captain Hobson shall not
De able to find Santiago channel

pose Of keeping the martial spirit of
our people on edge aaa the Congress
ready TO make larger appropriations
for forts and ships. It doesn't matter
much what country 1t is, so long as it
is not fighting country. There is Por
tuSal. for example, which would seem
to require attention from some one
Of the Powers, and 1t might be as
well not to withdraw all the troops
from the Mexican frontier. as there is
talk now of impeachlng the new Presi-
dent and there is said to be much
unrest because Madero appears to have
been making a corner in oil.
