A NEW AMERIcAN-JAPANESE TREATY.

I'D RESIDENT TAFT has injected a new issue into congress
le sional politics by the draft of a treaty between the United
States and Japan, which he sent to the Senate yesterday
The submission of that treaty may, indeed, have farreaching con
sequences. It is well known that the President has a yielding
disposition, for he has exhibited it in many important official acts.
1t is much in evidence in this proposed treaty. Complying with
Japans wishes, our government is made to agree that the existing
treaty, which Japan does not like, shall terminate a year before
the date of it's expiration. But the principal concession by our
government relates to Japanese immigration, the one subject that
is of critical Importance as a question between the two nations. A
paragraph in the existing treaty has been extremely distasteful to
Japan ever since Japanese sefconsoiOusness was made acutely
sensitive by the results of the Russian-Japanese war. That para
graph gives to the United States the right to pass and enforce
laws for the restriction of immigration to keep out an undesirable
right is reinquished and it is left to the japanese government to
say whether our Pacific coast shall be flooded with Japanese labor.
We are made to depend entirely upon the good wishes and good
faith of Japan. The people of the Pacific coast are more bitterly
opposed to japanese immigration than they are to the immigra-
ton of the Chinese, and this treaty will make feeling run high in
siton from the organized labor of the country. 1t Is also easy to
see how the treaty will be regarded abroad. All Europe is con-
yinced that sooner or later the United States and Japan will be
engaged in a war for the primacy of the Pacific. Recently 1t was
shown in American official reports that this nation is altogether
unprepared on the Pacific frontier for a hostile attack. The con
sion of weakness by this government. 1t will be believed that the
japanese have wrung from the American government concessions
that would never have been made except in fear.

The Standard for MIX.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
There is a bill pending in the Senate
to reduce the standard of milk from
IL per cent. total fats and solids to II
per cent. This bill will work one of the
greatest hardships to Newark it has
encountered in years, n will I'M
doubtedly increase the death rate of
bottle-nursing babies considerably. A
few years ago a bill similar to this bill
was passed in New York State, and its
disastrous effect has become so appar-
ent hat the very people who advo-
Gated the bill in New York State are
now demanding the repeal of that law
and placing the standard back at 10
per cent, which all s~anitarians con-
slider too low, and which. for the benefit
of infant health, should be about Is per
cent.

Stop Cnndy-store Gambling.
TO the Editor OF tho Evening Star:
Charles A. MacCall, guardian angel of
the school children OF the city of New
ark. is absolutely right whom he says
that school children are being taught
to gamble by the installation Of catch
penny devices in candy stores located
les schoolhouses.
In every one of these stores will be
found or more-usually more
machines operated as a game OF
chance. And in every instance the boys
or girls with a penny or two to spend
will take a chance of getting more than
their moneys worth IL they are lucky.
1t is true hat every child that puts
a penny in one of the machines gets
something in return, but the return is
In the way of the cheapest possible
sort Of candy, worth probably one-1fth
of a cent instead Of the cent the child
puts into the machine,
The police commissioners should
take the matter up and make q thor
ough investigation Of this matter,
which not only early puts the gambling
instinct that Is more or less innate in
all of us into children. but also swindles
them out of money by giving them the
cheapest and poorest of candy.

LEGISLATURE AND PARCELS POST.

II N matters purely within the province of Congress and not direct
y affecting the States it is no part of the duty of a State
Legislature to admonish Congress or congressman. But
there are some matters belonging to the Federal Jurisdiction which
justify a Legislative memorial, and one of these is the parcels post.
That is subject that affects the material welfare of the people
of all the States. In most Of the States the exactions by the eA.
press companies would be curbed by legislation if the State had
jurisdiction, but for any possible relief we must look to Congress.
A parcels post will be an important means of relief. The New
Jersey House of Assembly does right in requesting the New JERSEY
representatives in Congress to vote for a parcels post. 1t speaks
for all the people of the State.

m N officer of the National Guard who has served for a period
IN of twenty years o more in the guard fully deserves upon
his retirement to have conferred upon him a brevet rank of
a grade higher than that which he holds. Officers of the guard
give their time to the State without pay and at the same time incur
personal expenses as officers for which they receive no compensa.
ton except a small stipend paid for their attendance at camp. The
brevet rank costs the State nothing, and it furnishes a good in.
ocntive to officers. 1t Is also, under the curious military laws of
the State, an induoement to officers incapacitated by age to retire
and give place to younger men. The Senate yesterday passed a
bnl for this good purpose, and if the Assembly concurs to make
the bill a law it's provisions will be useful until the time comes for
getting rid of the system that makes the State Guard a permanent
home for the aged.

Newark Needs subway.

To tho Editor OF the Evening Star:
Who would aver have thought that
there are people in this city that are
opposed to a subway for Newark?
Judging by the growth of our town
one would believe that everybody here
was progressive, and for thai reason
in favor of the subway. It would
seem, however, hat Newark has grown
despite the many reactionaries there
are here. and despite the Board Of
Trade and its backwoods members.
There Is not a man here that can
give a good reason why we should not
have an underground service. The city
is very large and growing every day.
The Oranges, really a part of Newark.

other suburbs. We cannot allow our
citizens to live in a flrst-class city with
village accommodations as far as
transportation Is concerned.

MONEY FOR MOSQUITO DIFFERENTIATION.

m N adequate appropriation by the present Legislature for the
N work of mosquito determination, if made, will show a new
and enlightened spirit at Trenton in dealing with a State
problem that would now be successfully solved if successive Legis-
latures had carried out the pledge given a few years ago when a
quarter of a million dollars was promised for this great work. The.
results accomplished on Staten Island in the way of Kidding the
island of the mosquito pest show what can be done in New Jersey
il the proper means are supplied. For many years Staten Island
real estate went begging because of the pest that made residence
undesirable and uncomfortable. Hundreds of handsome residences
were unoccupied and were unstable. The island is now sought
for residence and real estate has appreciated by millions of dollars
There are many places in New Jersey admirably suited for sub
urban Communities that are unimproved because of the mosquito
pest. The summer resorts in the State lose a large patronage by
the same cause. The Mosquito determination League, composed of
representatives of various municipalities in North Jersey, will
memorabilia the Legislature for an appropriation and we trust
that it will be given in no spirit of parsimony.

Doom Of Geran Bill significant.
To the Editor of tho Evening Star:
That the Geran primary bill 8
doomed, as reported, is a good bit of
news.
1t shows that the legislators, the ma
jority of them at least, are ION to the
governor and his alter ego, George l..
Record, as far as a blow like this
against personal and political rights
Is concerned.
Perhaps, too, now that many of the
plums of patronage have been shaken
from the gubernatorial tree, the NOM
bers of the Legislature are no more
so sore afraid" of the States chief
executive. The Geran bill may prove
a boomerang to him that will swat his
ambitions in other directions to Smith
Green's"
II was a grave political error to at
tempt to foist such a monstrosity as
the Geran bill upon the citizens, and
reflects but little credit upon the much
Wanted acumen of the Jersey City
politician.

1Ia HERE is some merit in the suggestion by one of the news
paper advocates of the voting machine that the machine be
converted to penal uses by the State. 1t is proposed that
the Legislature pass a law compelling cities and counties in which
crooked politics prevail to install and use the machines as a pun
ishment. OF course such a drastic course would involve punish
ment for innocent and guilty alike, but all punitive laws more or
less affect the innocent, and that cannot be helped. The threat of
the voting machine as a penalty, however, should be enough to
arouse a community to discipline its political eviLdoers.
