 We rather envy the capacity for optimism of those Republicans who see in Tuesdays elections Q prophecy of the return of the party power The election news reminds of the tidngs that "he Dutch have taken Holland" The Republicans gained the governership In Massachusetts where they already had both houses of the Legislature and lost Maryland to the Democrats Three Republican Congressional Districs remain such after the election Republican succeeds Democratic Congressman in strong Republican district That the Massachusetts result should be hailed by the D. leaders most convincing proof Of the depth to which the mighty have fallen and of the scarcity of crumbs of comfort at the Republican board The suffragsts have been defeated by heavy maoriies, but DO mpar tial observer believes that they win allow that fact to affect them any for that is their Ohio cut its last years majority against prohibition in half in which fact there is the promise of another campaign on the issue.

So far as concerns the guilt or innocence of Ed ward Krause there is nothing more that the public can do beyond cooperating with the courts and others to the extent Of giving them all available information Krause is in Che hands of the law. and he win receive fair trial of the charges that are against him The presumption Of innocence win follow him through the trial and on the other hand, the publes side of the case is in competent hands.

The Dispatch has discovered by consulting die' tonary that Territory is tract of land. It also finds that Goodrich says Territory Is:
 "A portion of the country not in-
 cluded within the limits Of any State.
 and not yet admitted as Q State with
 separate legislature. under Territorial
 giverument and other officers appoint
 ed by the President and Senate of the
 United States"
 There are too many people who have lived In Ter rtories of the United States who now live in Alaska to be fooled by such chdishness hishere are too many lawyers who have intimate knowledge of the American government: there too many people who have general intelligence and know what Territory les have been People who are informed who know that under full Territorial government the people make their own laws as do those who live In States. They choose their own legislative and ministerial officers. They fix their own taxes collect them and direct their expend- ure. they limit their own indebtedness; they have con- ro of their own municipalities schools and roads, they make and administer their own criminal and police statutes. they handle their own insane and prisoners They are completely selfgoverned. except that Gov ernor and District Judges are appointed by the Presi dent but Che District Judges have only judicial powers They have no tax collecting powers and the liquor traf- uc is regulated by the people Laws passed by the Ter. ritoria Legislature are effective and binding.

The Golden Crops Of 1915.

The biggest crop on record rs an old
story in this country. We are used to
seeing the totals of agricultural produc-
ton rise from year to year and from dec
ade to decade. We know also that from
the point Of view Of the producer and from
that Of nation seeking to market its
surplus crops abroad a record breaking
crop is not as profitable an achievement as
on first blush it may seem TO be. Under
ordinary conditions maximum production
IS followed by lowering of price aver
ages. The cotton growers have had some
unpleasant experiences with bumper crops.
They have seen the price of their staple
20 down a third and have tried desper-
ately by organization and agitation to re-
duce the Souths cotton acreage.
II is the country's exceptional good fort
une this year that, excluding cotton, the
sale Of which has been unavoidably limited
by the war, our surplus crop is not in
danger Of encountering a glutted foreign
market. Europe can feed itself less than
ever next winter and the winter after
ward, and our extra supply sold abroad
will be sold at very profitable prices. The
American farmer has been riding in a high
power car for several years past. Now
he can ride in two high power cars, for
the war has freed him more than ever
from the hampering conditions under
which he lived in the eighties and nine
ties, when the price Of wheat was far
belca the dollar line, corn had often to

The Allied Landing in Greece.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: 1t is asserted by the Teutons with
some degree Of confidence that the landing
of troops by the Allied powers at Saloniea'
whereby the neutrality Of Greece was technl-
cally violated, bears strong resemblance to
the invasion Of Belgium by the Huns. AT
first blush it may so appear to the super
fetal mind. Reflection, however, will at once
disclose the fallacy of the proposition. The
neutrality Of Belgium was guaranteed by the
very power which despoiled IT,
No such situation confronted the Allies in
the case of Greece. Her case can reasonably
be compared with that OF Luxembourg, when
that country was invaded by the German
hordes over her protest, the only distinc-
ton being that the protest Of Luxembourg
was apparently sincere, while that of Greece
was merely formal and 8 mockery. Neither
did Luxembourg shower roses upon the invad-
ing barbarians as did Greece, when she ex-
tended her cordial welcome TO the gallant
French warriors. Besides, Greece i. bound
by treaty TO come 20 the assistance of Serbia
in her defence against Bulgaria, and the Al
lied troops are assisting Greece in the per-
Torrance OF that scored treaty obligation.

Repeal the La Toilette Law!

The Administrations own agents con-
tinue to bear testimony to the shortsight-
edness and folly of the La Toilette sea
mems law, which President Wilson signed
last winter when even cursory reading
of its provisions should have led him 70
veto it. His Department of Justice has
tried to nullify by construction the at
tempts made in the law to regulate FOR
eign shipping entering our ports. BY CIV
ing the text meaning which Congress
did not intend 1t to have the Attorney
General and his subordinates have avoided
the general denunciation of our treaties
Of commerce with foreign countries which
Mr.. La Toilette and his followers thought
they had accomplished.
But other more strictly economic effects
of the law are beyond the power OF any
administration official to counteract. For
one thing, American shipping has been
driven from the Pacific by the laws re-
uuirements as TO the nationality of crews
and the use of common language. We
have already handed over to Japan I'M
checked control of freight and passenger
traffic in the Pacific. What this means
may never have been understood in adj
ministration circles in Washington. But
the United States Consul General in Hong
Kong, an experienced student of Eastern
affairs, knows what it means and has had
the courage to tell the truth about 1t to
his superiors He says in a report just
transmitted to the State Department:
There are not now, and so far as may be
seen at present neither are there likely TO
be soon, sufficient vessels to carry American
and other passengers between Asia and the
United States, to carry American freight 10
It's Eastern markets, or TO carry Asatic raw
materials to American manufacturers, while
postal service and all similar facilities of
trade depending upon rapid and regular com
runication between the United States and
the Far East can but be irregular and pre-
carous for an indefinite period in the future.
Whatever may be the cause or occasion for
recent changes, the actual result of such
changes has been the placing Of American
trade and American interests in the Far
East in the greatest jeopardy.
, That is a moderate statement of the
damage done by fool act, foolishly
approved. One of the first duties Of Con-
gress when it reassembles should be to
repeal the Objectionable sections of the
La Toilette monstrosity.
