10 find that such Il state of mind ex-
lists in neighforine country supposed
TO be reasonably friendly. The emo
tionalism shown may be irresponsible,
and yet can not be dismissed as mean
ing nothing. Japan has much larger
standing army than the United States,
and trained naval force but little
smaller than ours It's battle ships are
fewer, but armored cruisers and some
other types are more numerous. The
Japanese sunners appear to have mas
tered the secrets and minutiae of
Workmanship. and as Japan can build
battle ships in its own Yards it may
fairly claim a remarkable progress in
the mechanical line. Forced to come out
of their seclusion the Japanese resolS-
ed to learn the causes of the power ex-
eried by the nations that ended their
hermit nation period. The thoroughness
with which they have studied arms and
military science has no parallel in his
tory.
Possibly this advancement, and the
result of the war with Russia, has
made the Japanese more ready 10 IN
dulge in war songs than Just esu-
mate Of themselves would warrant.
But undue national vanity is matter
to be reekoned with Ne doubt it is
tru" that concentrated japanese fleet
at this time could make ii uncomfor-
table for us in the Pacific but an eXeit-
ed feeling on the subject is unexpected.
The war songs have broken ont and
must at least be viewed as n warming
that our navy must not Re allowed To
run down. In the last Congress II was
hard TO get vote favorable 10 build
ing even a single battle ship, But ia
pan is proceeding OH an entirely dlftef-
ert plan. 1t is building all the war
slips it can pay for. Time alone can
tell what use it will make of them, but
its war songs at present are directed
against the United states only. IheS
are said to mean little. But they suggest
to prudent Americans that poilcF Oh
unnreparedness would not be good.

wondering wha. sort of excuse he can
invent for opposing the fedora! gov

overwhelming ma jority of the Amerl-
can people. including those OF Caiiior-
MIA. The American people are consid-
erine the matter without heat, refns-
ing to be stampeded, or even excited,
by the LIMOGES or the scare-crows.
They know the japanese are hyper
sensitive. hat America can't help that,
and will not try. The temper on TINS
side the Pacific is to meet such prob
lens fairly and decently, without pre-
judice and without fear of being seb-
bled up by the little silent people who
have been vastly overrated by silly
sentimcntalists. A little common
sense and practical review of the sit
uation is enough To convince most
people that the notion of war between
America and Japan at any time be-
tween now and 1925 is preposterous.
The Japanese are good poker play
ers They know how to make their ST.
lent movements look sinister and they
delight their fancied sensitiveness in

Editorial Comment
Why MIR. Bryan Failed.
CNeW York Tribune

Secretary Bryan is returning to
Washington with the depressing con-
seriousness that his mission to Califor-
MIA failed. Yet if he goes back ovel
the hazy, indecisive and highly con
tfusing recommendations which lit
made to the Californians he must
realize that the cause of his failure lay
leither in unavoidable instructions or in
| the laundering manner in which they
were carried out.
As the spokesman of the federal gov.
eminent there was only one point
which Mr.. Bryan could have expected
to make consistently and with con
vincing effect. So long as he warned
the California Legislature against
trying to override the provisions
of treaty with a foreign coun-
try he stood on solid ground
1t has never been decided fl
|nally and definitely by the Supreme
Court just to what extent treaty
must prevail in a conflict with state
law. But the weight of authority is
that it must prevail within the sphere
of the treaty making power conferred
by the states upon the general govern
ment, and it is highly desirable that
the federal government, should take
every opportunity to assert the prior
land higher obligations of the compacts
which it has made with foreign ma
ltions.
California would have had to yield
that point, and the law which the Leg
lslatufe passed on Saturday night did
actually yield it. But Mr. Bryan,
speaking for the President, barely re-
ferred to the real issue between state
rights and federal rights, and wan
dered far afield with suggestions that
California, to oblige the administra-
ton, should refrain from doing vari-
Gus things which it possessed full au-
thority to do.
The federal government could not
plausibly insist that California, after
conceding to aliens the full value of all
/ special rights acquired by them
| through treaties, should refrain from
basins permission to hold land on elig-
Utility to become naturalized. Califor-
MIA has no responsibility for the exis-
Itence of any of the determinations in
our naturalization laws. Those laws
are made by the nation, not by the
Estates, and if the distinctions which
they contain give offence the fedora
government is directly and solely re-
isponsible.
1t was the unwillingness of the ad
Iminlstration to face that fact which
put its envoy to Sacramento at so dis
tinct disadvantage. He was Obliged
ito ignore the essential fact that tho
Determinations which California was
Applying could be remedied by M
amendment of the naturaliza ton laws
and that the obvious thing for Tho
President to do was to apply To Con.
Igress If he wanted to see them rene
ldied. In overlooking the beam in III
Iown eye while calling attention to the
mote in CALIFORNIA; the administration
surely paved the way for discontinue
in the Sacramento negotiations.

Rain on the Roof.

When the humid shadows hover
Over all the starry spheres,
And the melancholy darkness
Gently weepS i'm rainy tears.
What a bliss TO press the pillow
OF Il cottage chamber bed.
And To listen to the patter
OF the soft rain overhead,
Every tinllle on the shingles
Has an echo in the heart
And a thousand dreamy fancies
Into busy being start.
And thousand recollections
Weave their air-threads into wool.
As | listen to the patter
OF the rain upon the roof.
Art hath naught of tone or cadence
That can work with such a spell
In the souls mysterious fountains.
Whence the tears of rapture Well
As that melody of nature.
That subdued, subduins strain.
Which is played upon the shingles
BY the patter of the rain.

many each country during the first six
weeks of hostilities would have to lay
hands on $500, 100000 to cover the cost
or mobilization and to support their
armies in the field. Private interests
would also make a sudden demand for
gold. In Germany at least $3.50 ,O0o, 0nt
