OUTLOOK IN THE STATE.

HAVING permitted themselves to be tricked by
I ! bunch Of trading politicians into electing
governor Of one political faith and legisla-
ture of divided political responsibility the people
OF West Virginia must content themselves with
marking time for the next two years at least for
nothing constructive will be possible while the leg
lslative and the executive branches of the state
government are out Of harmony
There is bright side to the picture, however. 1t
lies in the fact that nothing can be undone. Some
obviously needed changes in existing laws may get
through the legislature and secure the approval Of
the governor, but the prospect that some of the
most important of the advanced legislation which
was passed during the Hatfield administration
would be ripped ont if the Democrats came into
power is removed as far the coming session is
concerned This will insure about two more years of
actual trial as they now stand for these measures
Whether that is going to be to the advantage of
the progressive spirit which brought about the pas
sage of these laws will depend upon the character
of the men the governor-elect will appoint to office
Because of that the gossip about the possible ap-
pointments under the new administration will be
watched with the keenest interest 10y the people Of
West Virginia.

OUR RELATIONS WITH JAPAN.

THERE was time, not so very long ago. when
il Richmond Pierson Hobson went up and down
- the country preaching warning against
tsupposititious yellow peril and predicting that war
with Japan inevitable. He was doing it for the
gate receipts and though it became very tresome,
there were always enough people willing to pay to
listen to what he said to make it fairly rcmunera-
tive
For some months Judge Ebert H. Gary chair
man of the board Of directors of the United States
Steel Corporation, has been also taking advantage
Of every possible opportunity to speak about our
reiations with the Nipponese. Unlike Mr. Hobson,
he takes the position that Japan and this govern
ment are the friendliest possible terms and are
almost certain to remain so for years.
1t would be interesting to know just why such
busy man the steel trust head takes so much of
his valuable time to promise amiable relations be-
TWEEN the two countries. To put it in another way,
where does the Judge expect to .'get his?

had been done during the previous summer and

The Drive Against Chaulues.

The latest French move on the Somme
front is departure from the advance
toward Bapaume, which a day or so
ago appeared to have become the prin-
cipal objective of the western fighting.
This may, however, be regarded as a
Simultaneous activity without signifying
a departure from cooperation with the
British north of the Somme. By the
latest advance of the French forces the
line is drawn close to the Peronne-
Chaulnes highway, practically cutting off
Chaulnes from direct communication
west Of the river With its former base.
Peronne, however, has long since ceased
to be distributing point for the Somme
sector, and Chaulnes has doubtless been
dependent for supplies upon Nesle,
which lies about ten miles to the south
east, and is reached by railway. The
French line is now drawn about half
around CLEANLINESS, and the operation
there is similar to that which recently
caused the capture of Combles, north
of the river. The capture of Chaulnes
would give virtual control of the rail.
way junction just south Of that town,
from which branches go north to
Peronne and south to Roye, and would
materially affect the German position
south Of tho line. A noteworthy feature

Terauchi's Assurance.

Premier Terauchi of Japan sends in
an interview message of reinsurance
to the American people respecting the
policies of the government to the ad-
ministrative head of which he has just
been called. His statements are of spe-
cial interest in view of the suggestion
that has been made in some dispatches
that the selection of military man to
be Okuma's successor presaged mill
tant policy on the part of Japan. The
fact that the Emperor of Japan has
taken the soldier to be his chief of
state should not be viewed as sinister
appointment Gen. Terauchi has had an
extended experience as administrator in
Chosen. He speaks now in terms of
amity for the people of this country.
There is nothing in his record, nothing
in his present bearing, to suggest the
possibility of hostility toward this coun-
try.

Hawaii and the Philippines.
is is from Honolulu !:

|
Returns today from yesterdays ter.
| ritorial primary election indicate that
the republicans renominated j. Kuice
| Klanianaole for territorial delegate to
| Congress, and the democrats chose Lin
coin NJ. McCandless. The republican
vote outnumbered the democratic 3 to l.
1t was under republican administra-
ton, it will be remembered, that the
Hawaiian Islands became American ter
rltory, and under a democratic admin
istration that scuttle was attempted
Does this account for the fact that the
| republican vote today in political
primary in the islands is three times
larger than the democratica
The islands under American rule have
prospered greatly, and in every par
ticular. Improvements of every kind
have gone forward. Planting is more
profitable. Education has taken hold,
and the schools are crowded. The peo-
pie are more than contented They are
proud of their place in the American
order of government.
1t is anybody's guess as to what would
have resulted if Mr.. Cleveland's scheme
Of scuttle had gone through, and the
Stars and Stripes been lowered in the
islands. He was very much bent on it,
but, fortunately for the islands and for
US. he was defeated. If we needed them
then-and we did--we need them hun
dred times more now. The Panama
canal has made them invaluable to us.
As for conditions in the islands, the
restoration of the monarchy, which Mr.
Cleveland's scheme contemplated. would
have produced sort of chaos, which, in
time, and in no long time, would have
compelled the intervention of some
outside power, and that power would
probably have been the United States.
So that we should have left only to re-
turn.
For Hawaii read Philippines. The
cases are not parallel, but they have
some points in common. We put an end
in both archipelagoes to bad government.
We have given to both good government.
In the Philippines, as in Hawaii, our
rule has redounded to the great benefit
of the people. Improvement is to be
noted in all directions and in all things.
Especially has education been fostered.
After eighteen years the islands are ad
vaneed beyond the largest and fondest
plans and dreams of those natives who
at the time of our arrival were in revolt
against the Spanish authority.
The Wilson scuttle is in its essence
like the Cleveland scuttle. Should we
withdraw from the Philippines any time
soon sort of chaos would set up, and
we should have to return. If we did not,
some other strong power would inter
vene, and either annex the islands, or
put them under some kind Of vassalage.
So as we are there, and doing a good
part by the people and fulfilling obi
cations honorably taken. we had better
remain.

of the operation north of Chaulnes was
the capture of 200 prisoners around
Ablaincourt. These successive attacks
indicate that there is no disposition on
the part Of the allied commanders in
the west to regard the territorial gains
accomplished as inadequate in proper
tion to the cost They are evidently
determined to continue the pressure on
the western front, doubtless not merely
for the sake of the actual advance, but
for the moral effect of maintaining all
aggressive campaign.
