Calhoun County. Mich. has start
ed campaign of setting out fruit
trees along the roadsides, both for
profit and shade. This may work
out all right, but in a free country
like ours. where our pixies are not
policed. it will be hard to make trav-
elers ON the roadways realize that
the fruit belongs to the county. We
farmers in Kentucky are in the hab-
it Of getting out of our vehicles and
picking apples to eat, even across
the fence. and the owners rarely OBJ
ject. In Germany. where all roads
are aforementioned, the passer-
by respect the fruit on the highways.

We in Kentucky would rather see
a system of shade trees planted by
the roadsides, our pixies are splendid.
but too bare. When we drive along
in hot weather and come to the shell
ter of a big tree we want to stop and
breathe.

Straining a Point.

Chancellor Won Bethmann-Holl-
veg drops into casuistry in the man.
ner of his finding Great Britain re-
sponsible for the present war in Eu-
rope. If Russia had not been forth
fed with the British alliance, he
said to the correspondent of the As
ISOLATED Press, she would not have
committed the overt acts which fore
ed the kaiser to mobilize and to de-
clare war.
This is probably a not inaccurate
estimate of the forces at work in
European diplomacy during some
weeks preceding the opening of hos
tilities. 1t is not unlikely that, with
out the British alliance, the car
would have been much less belli-
cose. The Russians have been seek
ing an opportunity for wiping
out the Japanese defeat, but natur-
ally they would have been slow to
enter upon a war with Germany and
Austria, even with France as their
ally. If unable to count, also, upon
British aid. A nation aiming at the
wiping out of the stain of one de-
feat with the glory of a victorious
war must calculate carefully against
the chance of deepening and widen
ing the first stain with another.
But holding Great Britain respon-
sible for the war because one of her
allies forced it. on the strength Of
the alliance, is casuistry. unless the
chancellor has evidence showing that
British diplomacy urged Russian te-
merity into taking the action which
forced the German declaration. But
casuistry or even worse things, would
be welcome could they enlarge all
nations sense of the moral respon-
sibility they assume in making Of
fensive and defensive cOmpacts. and
so put an end to triple ententes,
triple alliances, or whatever new
names diplomacy may invent for such
things In future.-GlObe Democrat.

Kentucky Drying Up.

Kentucky. supposedly the wet
test" spot in the Union. the habitat
of the julep and the mother of Bour-
bon whiskey. is 'drying up"
It is one of the astonishing things
of modern state movements that this
is fact. When the anti-liquor men,
after q long and apparently hope
less fight. won the concession of a
local option election. the surprise
outside of the state was great. But
the surprise deepened to amazement
when. at the election which fell only
few days ago. nine out of the IL
counties most rockbound antiprohi-
bition voted for a dry regime.
Even Bourbon county, the strong
hold of the famous liquor that takes
its name, the heart of the bluegrass
country, where the colonies are sup
posed to be as full of corn" as the
corn is of "kernels'-even Bourbon
voted itself into the dry column. and
forfeited its chief industry.
To what purpose the planters will
put their famous Bourbon corn. so
prolific in yield, so Astounding in

Whether cereal factories and meal
mills will spring up on the hill

CALIFORNIA; Alien Law.

/
II is important that Americans
should know the facts concerning
the questions at issue between the
governments of the United States
and Japan. Those questions bid fair
soon to demand more general public
attention than they have yet receiv-
ed. They contain potencies of the
gravest character.
Recent publication Of diplomatic
correspondence between Japan and
the United States. on California's
alien land law, renewed interest in
this theme temporarily. but only
temporarily overshadowed by the
Mexican revolution and Europe's
war.
California's law forbids "aliens
not eligible to citizenship" to acquire
land. or to lease 1t for longer than
three-year periods. II they owned
land before the law was enacted,
they cannot transmit 1t to their ma
tural heirs; at the owners death it
must be sold by the state, the pro-
ceeds being paid to the heirs.
Asiatics are the only "aliens not
eligible to citizenship" in the United
States under our present naturali-
zation law. The humblest immigrant
from any portion of Europe, Africa
or Australia. white or black, is ELI
gible to American citizenship; but
Togo the sailor, Oyama, the soldier,
Noguchi the poet. Kawakami the
publicist and journalist. and humane
the diplomat-all of them men of
the highest character and of distin-
guished ability-citizens of the great
world in the larger sense--these men
and their remarkably intelligent,
efficient, ambitious countrymen are
forbidden by our naturalization law
to aspire to citizenship under the
Stars and Stripes. DR.. Sun, the
father of the Chinese republic, the
George Washington of China" as
he has been called, and DR.. WI Ting
Fang. one of the worlds famous wits
and diplomats, representatives Of the
worlds most numerous people and
of its oldest surviving civilization,
would knock at our doors in vain
with a plea for citizenship; Rabin-
dranath Tagore, East Indian poet
and philosopher. winner of the Nobel
prize. also would find our gates clos
ed aginst him.
1t is an absurd situation, quite
justifying Japan's truthful declara-
ton that our attitude, California and
national. is ''invidiously discrimina
tory" inconsistent with the senti-
ment of good neighborhood," and of
CALIFORNIA; land law specifically that
it is inconsistent with the treaty in
force" an "abridgement of vested
rights" guaranteed by that treaty.
