The Oyster Supply.

1t Is not surprising that there is a
serious effort on foot in Maryland o.
conserve the oyster industry of that
State. More than this. the men who
are largely engaged in this industry are
urging the State authorities to take
some action which will eliminate poll
tic, from the enactment and admins
tration Of the oyster laws.
To this end the appointment OF a
board of marine fisheries. composed Of
experienced men. is asked. The oyster
growers and dealers realize that the
constantly increasing demand for the
bivalvc Is already making serious in
roads upon the supply. and that if some
thing is not done TO stimulate and pro-
tect the development and growth of the
oyster they will be compelled to go
out OF business.
These men are right in insisting that
the question is one which ought 10 be
considered outside OF politics. and their
appeal to the legislature should re-
ceive favorable consideration.

A Campaign Without Personalities.

Both President Taft and Col Roose-
Welt have ranged themselves OH the side
of 4 campaign devoid of personalities
1t viii be easy for Mr.. Taft. who pos
seSses a dign;fcd and judicial tempera-
ment, to refrain from utteranccS which
might be tinged with personal rancor
and Roosevelt's assurance that he will
make clean fight will be accepted BY
the country at its face value
But it may be difficult for the par
tisans OF both candidates to be restrain
ed. Already cpithets are being hurled
through the vibrating atmosphere, and
If the contest grows warmer there is
no telling where the phrasemaker will
end. The people. however. do not want
TO hear abuse or angry words Logical
argument, sober and thorough dis
Cussion OF the issues involved. a care
full weighing Of the claims OF the rival
candidates for public support will be
Welcomed. There Is a choice to be
made, and the people are able to make
that choice intcligcntly for themselves
after they have heard the presentation
OF both sides
Nobody. VIC repeat. wants 10 listen
TO mere abuse. The candidate who de-
scends 10 the low level of personalities
ought TO be defeated.

Bon Voyage.

Universal good wishes will accom-
pany Maj. Archibald w. Butt upon his
trip to Italy to recuperate. He has been
faithful aid to the President.
Appointed to the army from civil life.
Maj. Butt was first assigned TO duty in
the quartermaster's department in the
Philippines, and his service in that ca
pacity demonstrated his industry. in
teIligcncc, and capacity. Assigned later
as military aid to President Roosevelt,
he continued i'll the same position with
President Taft, and in the multitudinous
affairs with which he has been connect
ed has conducted himself with great
tact and dignity. Elevation to high
place has not, however, warped his
character or changed his democratic
temperament, lie has been the ideal
man for the position. and it is safe to
say that he has been practically indis-
pensablc at the Presidents side
In day when the temptation TO snob-
berry besetS every individual who IS
given rank and power; when the coun-
tcnancc which surveys the world from
pedestal OF temporary greatness is apt

praise which is now accorded him is

WANTS DIVORCE MADE EASY.
Lord Russell Declares the Poor
should Have n Chance.

From the PhiladeIphia Public Ledger.
London, Feb. 25.-Earl Russell has put
his opinions and experiences TO account
by writing a book on divorce. which will
be published shortly. Lord Russell says
that he desires to see common sense in
troduced into the divorce law and the
abolition OF judicial separation. which is
an Invention OF the devil'' and has done
more harm than any other legislation.
He recommends that women in the mat
Ter of divorce laws be placed on an
equality with men.
1T does not follow says Lord Rus
sell. that all women would divorce their
husbands at the first opportunity"
Lord Russell suggests that ecciesias-
teal tradition should be got rid of, and
the divorce law altered in accordance
with the common-sense view just as in
other legislation. He advocates strong
II that the poor be given facilities for
divorce and says that nine-tenths of
the population have no chance of OBJ
tsining divorce, although the law says
tley are entitled to IT,

The British Coal Strike.

Failure OF all efforts TO reach a COM
promise between the miners of Great
Britain and the owners OF the collieries
has plunged that nation into 4 crisis
the gravity of which can hardly be ex-
Gggeratcd. Conditions are such in the
greaTer part of England that failure TO
distribute fuel for twenty-four hours
br:ngs majority OF the population to
want Coal in England. Scotland, and
Wales is handled on a scale of almost
scientific eNactnesS and economy Lit
tie or no waste is allowed. Large ac-
cumulations of fuel, except at the mine
shafts. are not necessary or possible.
The haulS from the mines to the points
uf consumption, as compared with the
same conditions in other countries, are
short, and the distribution of fuel is SO
organized that when the system stops
for any cause the fires go out in a ma
joriy of the factories and homes of
Great Britain. The price of fuel in the
cites of the kingdom is also an i'm
portant matter, and shortage leading TO
enhanced cost for this everyday ncces-
sity q life means calamiy so dire that

The Arbitration Treaties.

Senator Lodge. in his speech before
the Senate, emphasizes the peril in thC
arbitration treaties with Great Britain
and France which was long ago pointed
out in The Washington Herald.
No one can doubt the patriotism Of
Senator Lodge Neither can any one
gainsay his intimate knowledge OF
American history or his breadth ot
view upon all questions which concern
our relationship with foreign nations
His clear portrayal OF the pitfalls into
which We may fall through the agree
ments now submitted for ratification
must carry weight with every Ameri-
can citizen concerned in the future
welfare of this country.
There are some questions which the
United States cannot arbitratc. We
cannot allow any European nation to
question the Monroe doctrine, to which
VIC have given our allegiance ior nearly
a century. nor could We. as Senator
Lodge asserts. arbitratc with Russia
the question OF her right to diScrim
nate against certain classes OF American
citizens. We. must be on our guard
against the efforts OF foreign powers to
entrap IT, into conditions which viii
prove sources OF anxiety and cmbar-
TaSSmCnt.
1t is no answer to say that if a crisis
arrives the treaties can be di>rcgarded
This is hypocrisy OF the worst sort. II
VIC enter INTO solemn obligations to ar
bitrate anything and everything, we
must. in maintenance OF our national
honor, observe those obligations. As
a matter Of fact. VIC will continue to
enjoy with Great Britain and France
the peaceful relations which have so
long existed Indeed. with the bonds OF
blood and comRcrcc and mutual self
interest which now bind Us to those
nations, war is not only most remote,
but practically impossible
Arbitration treaties which. like those
now proposed. leave us no recourse do
not add to the certainty OF peace They
are far moro likely to prove a source
OF Irritation which may produce un-
happy results.

MANIToBA.s MISTAKE.
Public Ownership of Telephone
Fails 20 Lower the Rates.


Fails 20 Lower the Rates.
Prom the Buffalo News
Manitoba hAS been making an expert
ment in ownership and operation of the
telephone system Of the province. The
government bought out the Bell system
and put it in charge Of a commission.
When II was done the premier promised
that rates should be lower. SO that even
the poorest should have the advantage
Of the telephone as well as the merchant
or the man of wealth.
II was claimed TO BE- also a good COM
mercial plan to assure the return OF
profit. AS a matter Of fact. The rates
have been increased over the former
rates. under private ownership.
The service has been less efficient,
and the returns have so far fallen be-
low the outgo that the last year shows
deficit OF 1900. though for two or
three years there was on paper a sur
plus. But the loading down OF the sys-
TEN with the public neglect to keep the
property in good condition. and the man.
agemsnt of various kinds. owing to poll
tics as much as anything. has brought
the entire scheme of private ownership
to grief.
1t was the judgment of Mr.. Dalrymple,
OF Glasgow. after visiting Chicago, that
American methods Of doing things were
so saturated with politics that public
ownership was not desirable and every
attempt made on this side OF the water
appears to confirm that opinion.

ORIENTAL REPUBLICANIsM.
United states Has Its Work Cut
Out in the Philippines.

Frnll the CHRISTIAN SrieuCe Monitor.
Prompt recognition Of the Chinese re-
public by the United States is being
urged formally by Chinese students in
American colleges and schools. The ar
guments set forth are sound and coin
eide with reasons which must have
weight with the Department Of State,
and would shape action doubtless were
the United States not committed. for
China's good. to Joint and simultaneous
acti0h by the powers 50 long as they
respect a policy that makes for China 5
entity in perpetuity. For better. for
worse. the day has passed when the
United States aligns itself with all re-
publican movements the world over the
instant that revolt is declared or vic
tory won.
Having forsaken the foreign policy de-
fined for IL by George Washington, the
nation now has 10 consider more care
fully the ultimate effects abroad Of any
step it may take. Consequently repub-
lican Portugal has had much the same
delayed recognition from the United
States that il has had from Great Brit
ain. China likewise will find the United
States minding the ultimate as well as
proximate effects Of any action IL may
take. certain, however. that the Chinese
republicans will understand the situa-
tion and not he unmindful of the actual
friendliness Of the people who have
Washington and Lincoln as exemplars.
The question is beihg raised as to the
effect that the Chinese republic. If en-
during. will have upon the Filipinos.
''WnI not they. like the japanese" It is
asked. be led to make more radical
demands and insist upon a larger meas
ure of popular rule?" Undoubtedly they
will But though fully aware of this
Inevitable outcome and though quietly
using its influence against republican
victory in China. the japanese govern
ment has not dared formally to oppose
the change in any effective way and can
not afford now even to seem to obstruct
foreign recognition of the democratized
nation that has decided to rule itself.
The problem for Japan now Is to create
new sanctions for loyalty, 10 moralze its
masses with ethics that can make the
transition from feudalism to democracy
that looms ahead as mild as possible:
and to secure this end II is significant
to note that a call has recently been
issued by the government for amicable
conference between Buddhist, Shintoist
and Christian leaders.
Similarly, the United States has its
work cut out for It in the Philippines

The Washington herald., 1912-03-01

nothing short of failure of the rice crop
in India can be compared with it,
What the outcome viii be it is diff
cut at the moment TO foresee 1t will
be almost inevitable that the govern
nient will be forced into drastic meas
ures to maintain order and supply the
lark of fuel 1t has already been sug-
gested that the army of Great Britain
be set TO the task of moving the coal
at the coli!eries to market to supply the
immediate needs of the nation. But
this would be only temporary expedi-
eat, and the question at issue between
the workmen and employers would still
be unsolved.
The government is in an embarrass-
ing position, because 4 cannot compel
the worlunen &c enter the coal shafts
and go to work, and on the other hand it
cannot force the employers TO accede
to the workmen against their will. Thus
far there has been no resort to dis
order and violence, the workingmen
having exhibited excellent conduct in
this particular, but a few days or a
few weeks hence, when the industries of
Great Britain are paralyzed and the
people are clamoring for fuel, the pos
sibilities of disorder, rioting, and blood
shed will be vastly increased.
The only ways out of the crisis ap-
parcntly are for the employers to
weaken at the behcst OF aroused public
opinion or government occupation and
operation of the coal properties.
