Not Admirable.

1t is a very serious arraignment
which is made by leading oontempo-
rary that The Hague tribunal would be
prejudioed against the United States in
the Panama Canal foliage matter be-
cause with the exception of the dele
gates from this country the arbitrators
are European land a few Asiatics) all
of whose native countries had inter
ests to protect in this case diametri-
cally opposed to those of our nation as
sea traders.
1t is a grave charge to impute to
men of such standard probity the base
ness and unfairness of deliberately
passing a biased judgment; but self
interest, coupled with instructions from
home governments, is liable to make
an impression and prompt representa-
tives of a nation to see things in the
light that best might serve their coun-
try's designs.
Great Britain is. after all, not near as
sure OF her position in the lsthmian
Canal matter as we are of ours. Down
ing street finds it very difficult thing
to make UP its mind whether to demand
arbitration of the coastwise traffic eX-
emption or not, which means that Great
Britain is not sure of her ground. The
fact is that as an act of Congress, the
foliage case is not arbitrable; it is a
purely domestic, internal affair, and
such legislation has no more to do
with being brought before The Hague
court than the question whether Hol-
land proposes to remove its Javanese
government from Batavia and establish
j, at Celebes. The only thing that iron
England's point of view might possibly
be arbitrable is how that particular
clause of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty
should be interpreted.
Under the Federal Constitution
treaties are made by the President anc
ratified bv the United States Senate
They are made to be lived up to
Neither Congress nor Mr.. Taft be
lieved that they were violating the in
tent of the Hay-Pauncefote treat,
when our coastwise shipping was ex
empted from foliage. Therefore w
fully agree with what the Presiden
says-that this matter, as far as th'
United States is concerned, is not ar
bitrable.
The trainers of our Constitution
were men far wiser in statecraft thai
we in our modern superior wisdom
are wont to give them credit for. By ex
empting the House of Representative
from also having to ratify treaties mad
by the President with the consent o
the Senate, they purposely showed
way to change or abrogate or modlf
treaty which is not satisfactory +
the people. Thus it is plain that al
act of Congress is superior to an
treaty negotiated. If there is an
doubt. it is removed by such act o
Congress.
1t may be asserted by the other part
to the treaty that the United State
has committed breach of internationa
contract But if the nation that con
siders itself aggrieved complains of ou
breach of faith it can find no redres
in arbitration, for, as stated, no az
of our Congress can be arbitrated. b
other nationsl If we were to submit I
such a thing it would be tantamount I
have any other nation raise the que!

PROSPECT FOR NEW ROAD.

According to news reports from Ok
lahoma City, T. J. Nance, president of
the Clinton Oklahoma & Western
railroad, is planning to extend his
line in the near future to Chickasha.
This is the sum total Of the defi-
mite news concerning the new pro-
Jeet As to how authentic the report
is, we have no means of knowing, but
IL agrees with what has been known
Tor two years or more concerning the
plans Of Mr.. Nance.
Talk Of a railroad from Chickasha
tc Clinton has been plentiful during
the past few years and several pro-
moters have worked on the proposl-
ton At the time That the amend
ment Of article of the constitution
was before the people, Dorset Carter
Of the Oklahoma Central gave 1t out
that he would extend his line north
west from Chickasha, presumably
connecting with the Santa Fe, in
Wooward county If the amendment
were adopted Major Gordon. well
known railroad promoter, made prop
ositions to Chickasha and other towns
along the proposed line in the same
direction several years ago.
The activities Of the various pro
moters indicates conclusively that
men who have studied the transporta-
tion needs Of the section Of the state
in question recognize the Feasibility
Of such line. For the most part it
would serve territory that is now
without railroad facilities and the
line should be. a paying investment
To Chiekasha the proposed line
would open new trade territory and
opuld not fail to be of great adyant.
age to the town Chickasha would be
the largest town on the new road and
would naturally draw large volume
Of trade from the rich territory thus
opened The news Of Mr.. vance's
plans sounds good to Chickasha ana
the developments win be watched
with keen interest.
