HOUSE PASSES RECIPROCITY.

After debating the proposition for
a week, the House of Representatives
passed the Canadian reciprocity agree
ment by d vote in which the noes might
fairly be called scattering The
aves were 265, the nays 50. The de
bate lasted six days, but it was rather
tame. Nothing of any special impor-
tance WAS brought forward and no
specially new alignment was devcl-
oped. The most of the negative vote
was cast by the Republicans, chiefly
the standpatters, seventy eight Of whom
voted against ratification. Ten Demo
Gratis Joined them in opposition. The
Republicans who voted with the DEM
ocrats for the passage of the bill mum
ber sixty.seven, and this made the at
irmative vote overwhelming.
The agreement now goes TO the Sen-
ate. in which body the standpattcrs
are in far greater proportion to the
membership of the body than they are
in the House. Probably the Democrats
Of the Senate will mainly vote as their
rarty Representatives did in the House.
in favor of ratification The Repub.
lican vote will bc divided as it was in
the House; but if il divides substan-
tially IN the same ratio that il did in
the House. ratification by the Senate
is assured When this ratification will
come, however, is another question.
With the traditions and practice Of un-
limited debate which the Senate insists
upon the vote on this question may be
postponed for days, weeks, or even
months, simply because Senators want
TO debate. We do not look for this
however. but are inclined to believe
that the Senators Will. on sizing up the
situation. conclude that it is best not
to delay the final vote unnecessarily
but to come TO vote with such speed
as NAV be practicable. There are al
ways number Of Senators who desire
| to be heard on whatever matter of i'm
! portance is pending, and these, OF
course, will insist upon their right to
talk. Usually, however, the speeches
not only do not convince anyone OF
change any vote, but they shed no light
upon the subject discussed.

POLICING I'VE gEAs. FoR PEACE

\ suggestion is made in recent
work ON China that would solve all the
dificulties raised by General Homer
Lea. Representative Hobson, and 9th
ers with respect 10 the peril of WAY be
tween the United States and Japan.
This suggestion is said 10 have come
from the. Chinese. ''who invented
everything. and who arc said TO have
anticipated in this suggestion, even
President Taft s arbitration proposals
TO Great Britain. AT any rate At was
a curious coincidence that this sugGes-
ton should come precisely at the time
when negotiations are afoot for an I'M
reserved arbitration treaty between
the United States and Great Britain.
The suggestion is for the settlement
of all peace questions aud warikc com
plicatious by the entire American navy
pa,roling the Pacific, In return for this
service, the British fleet would patrol
the Atlantic, both patrols 10 be in the

Ii is a magnificent proposition, but
the question is whether 1t is no, Of the
same sort Of magnifcencc rs the
charge of the light brigade at Bala'
klava. which was magnificent, but not
war" This proposition, while magnih'
cent, may not be practical. If 1T were
put into effect, it would make the
United States and Great Britain The
sea police Of tho world. 1t would Mt
once crush any idea of superior Jap
anesc navy, or any war movement from
such navy. 1t would do away with
every possible fear on the part ol
Great Britain of rivalry by the Ger
man navy, or from any possible com
bination of European navles against
Great Britain. Germany or France, OF
both combined would be hopelessly
distanced, and their naval ambitions
entirely quelled by this proposition 1t
would be the first great practical stel
towards international disarmament, IN
fact making the armaments of All OF
tbe other powers weak and useless.
The American feet as an entirety ia
ken to the Pacific ocean would so over
shadow Japan that all rivalry would be
hopeless. And it is suggested that the
Japanese taxpayers would themselves
be the most eager to welcome such
solution, as ending forever any hope ol
,Japancse domination Of the Pacific,
The author of the suggestion urges
i, particularly in behalf OF the Chr
nese, who, he says, look to the United
States as the protector of that empire
and the savior of its territorial lnteg
rity, the maintainer of the ''open door
for aIl'' in trade, and the disln'erested
promoter of international peace, that
has no designs upon any other nation
either for aggression or for acquire
meut
This suggestion is entirely outside oi
diplomatic channels at present, but II
is liable to get into those channels
any day; and if ii should come TO
realization, it looks very much as
though the prospects for the world
peace would thereby not only be en-
HANGED but enforced.
