DEPORTATION AND EDUCATION

There Is in prospect the deportation of another large
batch Of aliens who have been implicated in anarchistie
plots By all means. all such persons, not citizens of ou1
own country, should be deported, and all possible steps
should be taken against the entrance of cattle of their
sort in the future. Our immigration authorities have had
at all times the authority to exclude persons conspicu.
ously lacking in the qualities that make for good citizen.
ship. but the immigration authorities. like most Of the
rest of us, have been given the hospitality. and have been
careless and Indifferent. And. even with the exercise OF
the greatest care, SOME undesirables are bound to sir
through. - .,
But the problem is not to be solved by the exclusion
OF those persons so manifestly unfit that their exclusion
becomes Imperative. or their deportation after their un-
fitness has been demonstrated. There are within the ranks
of our own citizens, some of them .naturalised, some OF
several generations Of American ancestry, persons as unfit
to be at large as are any Of these who are being deported
These We cannot deport. 1--WE cannot pass them on to
others, We must deal with them ourselves.
Obviously the need here Is that of prevention
Education, for purposes Of citizenship, means something
more than instruction in the three RS and the appropri.
ate trimmings. It means the development in the child,
and persistence in this development to and through adult
life Of the consciousness of citizenship and Of an under
standing and acceptance Of the responsibilities that
citizenship entails. And that is a work to which every
community must contribute its part, just as it was neces-
sary for every community to contribute its part in morale
and material toward the winning Of the war.
As to those who can neither be educated nor depor-
ted. whose criminal tendencies are so i~ngrafned that their
presenee constitutes a constant menace, the hospitality
of our penitentaries should be extended. and. where the
circumstances. call for it, the ministrations of the hang
man should be invoked. "

JUDICIAL REDiSTRCTING

One Of the measures to be submitted to popular vote
on June rs is known as the judicial redistrictine" bill
as that term better describes it. This bill provides tina
in place OF the present twelve judicial districts With on
judge to q district, there shall be six districts in the state
with two. or. three judges to a. distriet-ffteen judges in
all in place Of the present twelve.
p. There has been no complaint that under the present
system our district judges are overworked. 1t is quite
possible that a re-arransement Of districts might be made
advantageously so that a more nearly equal distribution
Of work would result. But whether the present plan 81
one judge to a district were to be retained, or fewer and
larger districts were created, with more than one Judge
each, it has never been shown that twelve men cannot
handle all the district court business of North Dakota
satisfactorily.
The bill provides for the appointment by the cover
nor Of three more judges. That means three more Jobs,
at a salary of $4,000 each and expenses, a needless and
unwarranted addition to the expense of the state.
The finding of places for needy applicants is one fea-
ture OF the bill. Another. and a most dangerous one.
is the provision made for change of venue from Judge to
judge, from county to county and from district to dis
trict, the effect Of which, under the new district plan,
would be to facilitate the submission by the Socialist stat
government of important cases to the appointees Of that
administration. with the presum ption Of a friendly atti-
tude on the part. Of the court.

FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE Is. 1919.
WALL STREET AND THE TREATY

1t has been charged more or less directly that Wall
street interests had obtained copies Of the full text Of
the peace treaty for the purpose Of using it to their own
financial advantage. Nothing of the sort has been
brought out in the evidence which, from one standpoint,
is a matter Of regret. for several people have been
curious as to just how Wall street could use the treaty
for that purpose. The information is yet to be obtained.
stitution go about it?
In the first place, the treaty IL unfinished. It will
remain dn an unsettled state until an agreement on the
same terms has been reached by the people who are
framing the terms and those to whom they are submit
ted. The presentation Of the treaty marked one stage
in the proceedings. The members of the conference sub
mttted to the Germans a document which they were
willing to Sign and to have the Germans sign. The time
was ripe for the giving out of information. and inforrna-
ton was given. But it was not certain that changes
would not be made. As a matter Of fact. changes have
been made. If a basis can be reached acceptable to the
German ENJOYS and to the conference, 4 second stage
will have been reached. Even then the proceedings are
not ended. 1t will remain for the several governments
affected to take action, each in accordance with its own
constitutional provisions, and again changes may be
necessary. 1t would be interesting to have pointed out
lust what prospect there was Of financial advantage in
the possession Of a document which was 50 far from
completion.
Again. Immediately following the presentation Of
The treaty to the Germans. tho conference authorized the
publication throughout the world Of an abstract Of its
provisions az they stood. II that abstract had been false,
il the description Of the treaty had been at variance with
the document itself in any important particular. the pos
session of inside Information as to the actual facts might
have been used for speculative purposes, But there is
no evidence Of any such discrepancy. The treaty has
been published in full in the Congressional Record, and
Thousands Of people have had access to it in that form
Other thousands have had access to It in newspaper
form. No person has yet pointed out = clause wherein
the summary was inconsistent with the main document.
The man who brought a copy across for publication in
his paper, and who seems not to have found it diAacult
to obtain it, has said that the Essential features Of the
treaty are accurately covered in the official summary.
1t was impossible for anyone to learn anything Of
value from the full text that was not quite we'll covered
in the summary. The summary gave the main facts
about boundaries, indemnities, military restrictions, labor
provisions. and all the rest of it. The complete treaty
presented these matters in more elaborate detail, and
that seems to be about all.

RIGHT AND EXPEDlENY
Former Senator Root the other dan

Former Senator Root the other day covered certain
points relating to right and expediency in two or three
terse sentences. E
He gave it as his opinion that the senate had a con-
stitutional right to request the president to submit to it
a copy of the peace treaty. and that the president had
a constitutional right to refuse. The dispatches do not
indicate who asked the question, or for what purpose
But the case is SO clear that it would have been about
shines. The senate has a constitutional right to make
That is not debatabe. Neither can there be any ques-
ton that concerning matters in which the president is
exercising his own constitutional functions. he has a Legal
right to grant or deny such requeets,- or to take his own
time about acting on them. =,
Similarly Mr.. Root pointed out that the presiden,
had a constitutional right to refrain from consultation
with the senate concerning the performance Of his duties
But, he added. he thought that more frequent consulta-
ton might have facilitated a solution Of the problems
which were to be solved.
In both of these cases there can be no question Of
constitutional right. The matter Of expedience is anothe,
thing. There is good reason to believe that the presf.
dent could not have submitted the peace treaty to thu
senate in a formal manner under existing condition.
without improperly. But there seems to be M good
reason why arrangements could not be made to suppl,
copies to the senators informally, and II that had beer
done much pickering would have been avoided. Again
much OF the friction between the president and the cen.
ate is due in large measure to the presidents well
known tendency to Communicate with the leeis,ativ.

1t is not a matter Of record. however.
that all things were such as Mr..
Mills saw At to describe 'them-in
fact. it should be'said that as a mat
ter of record several of his statements
deviated ! suspiciously from the
straight and awfully- narrow path of
truth. !.
Sanity VI. Madness.
A fourth reason for making ON
parsons between New Zealand and
North Dakota is the fact that for
years a fight. has been raging in both
commemorative between the .ele-
ments representing common and
those who stand for extreme. radical
ism. For years New Zealand has
been known all over. the world as the
most interesting battle-ground OF. this
kind, and lately North Dakota is re-
! ceiving her share Of general attention
on that score
"rhe New zealand 1de." has been
famous for some years. but no one
has yet given a satisfactory definition
Of what 1t really is. Likewise, the
North Dakota Idea which is now
and periodicals, sounds fascinating
and alluring. but no one seems to
know what it is. tItHhas notSabeen
analysed, and there is no disposition
apparent to make any searching an
alysis-probably for fear of the ma
ture Of a revelation
AS a fifth and final reason for find
ing points Of contact between North
Dakota and New Zealand it may be
said that both Of these states are
passing through their formative
periods sort Of political Adde'S
cence out of, which something, good is
bound to come in spite of the harm

While in the state Of being orgapiz-
ed, every commonwealth in the world
faces certain intricate problems re-
sulting in the temporary production

some, by the sheer force Of their nov
city.
But when the newness Of the thing
has worn off. it will be seen that So

lows certain normal and well defined
lines, That realization will dawn up
on North Dakota some day as it will
upon New Zealand.

THE TREATY INVESTIGATION

The furry over the existence Of a COPY or COPIES Of
the full text Of the peace treaty with Germany in New
York seems to have been a very violent tempest in a very
email teacup.

looked; -unnoved. upon Niagara Falls. "wonderful!"
exclaimed another tourist at his elbow. What's won

precipice." Whats to hinder %, asked Pat: and there

Gentlemen in the senate declared in accents Of horror
that New York had the full text Of the treaty. # It had
not been for the accents Of horror one might have sun
posed, quite as a matter Of course, that there were sew
eral copies of the treaty On New York. In the language
OF the 1rishman. what was to" hinder? The peace con-
Terence had issued d rather full description Of the treaty.
The only intelligtble reason for not cabling the whole
thing was that It wa 10 very long and that nobody would

daily passed the hotel window before
which he was accustomed to take his
breakfast. She was a very ordinary
girl indeed. and very, very far from
being a countess or a duchess, not to
speak of q princess.
Quite obviously she belonged to
those who work that they may live.
The fixed hour at which she passed
the hotel window each day. the sober
little frock she always wore, a certain
air of purpose about her, all proved
her one OF the city's toilers. AS ouch,
she was absolutely outside Of David

Yet, somehow, he looked At her.
