 ~~~-~-~-~~~--~--o-~~ ---~-- ------o~~~-~ litical party. It is purely matter of concluding duty to civilization, and doing it as quickly as prudent consideration of our country's inter- ests suggests.
 Leadership in a great moral ques- tion has been given to the democracy, for the simple reason that the sena- tcrial oligarchy, which for the time being has assumed control of the republican party, has abandoned the idealism of other days.
 Warns Against Combine.
 "In the face of an efficient demo- cratic leadership during the war. and of constructive, progressive, ec- onomic service in peace, the repub- licans leaders developed smoke screen, behind which they seek to gain their objective-the spells of office. For years the best thought and the humanitarian impulses of civilized countries have been ap-' piled to the high purpose of mak- ing war practically impossible. The league of nations became the com posite agreement, and it was the sen- absurd plea that it increases the poli- cy of armed conflict. It not only re- veals unworthy intent, but a very poor estimate of American ideals.
 Declaring for "square dealing be- tween men and no preference under government" Governor Cox warned against distortion of the basic prin- ciples of government, and added:
 "A powerful combination of inter- ests is now attempting. to buy gov ernment control. They are raising millions and millions of dollars into campaign fund. Just how it will be used, the future alone can tell. We do know it is being employed now to arouse radical discontent to breed unrest, and to befog the public mind
 Rather than make these groups of men the sponsors of government, they must be made to demean themselves under the vigilant restraining eye of a government policy based upon gold en rule. They have their own mo- tions about the settlement of indus trial disputes. They would enforce them with their puppets in. office. They would continue profiteering and re-establish the rule of govern ment by the few. They would es- tablish class feeling and make fair and honest readjustments im- possible"
 The proposal of the democrats to cut two billion dollars from federal expense, Governor Cox said, also would guard against it's multiplica- tion many times in "illegal profits" and high living costs.

IntenSeneSS of
 Feeling Against
 Ireland is Shown

Dublin, July 31.-Intensity of pub lie sentiment in Ireland against Brit ish rule is evidenced by the actions of the recently elected Sim Fein local councils. Westmeath County Council has decided that all the courthouses in the county shall be closed and the government officials resident in them evicted.
 The Irish Volunteers have been or dered to see that no judges are al- lowed to enter the buildings for the purpose of holding any courts not recognized by the Dail Eireann, or Republican parliament. Some coun- cils have passed resolutions to raise contributions for the maintenance of the Republican Army.
 At Claremorris, county Mayo, the local council has adopted a resolu- tion appealing to all Irishmen of military age to undergo a course of training in the Republican army, and will not give any position in the service of the council to men who have not undergone such training. In other places the local councils have decided to cut off the water supply from the police and military barracks. At Enniscorthy, county Wexford, where this was done, the authorities promptly hit back and the council room was raided by po- lice and soldiers.
 Meetings have just been held | rh 11~oI nd tha of selecting the judges who are to preside over the Sim Fein parish courts. These courts have juris- diction in all cases under 10 lbs. in value, and it is intended that their judges shall eventually be elected by the votes of the people in whose dis tricts they operate. Pending the or ganization of electoral machinery for the purpose they have been selected by a conference composed of the members of the Dail Eireann for the constituency, the members of the County Council, one clergyman of each denomination from each parish, the members of the urban and rural councils, one representative of each Sim Fein club, one member of each company of volunteers, and one rep resentative of each trades union body. The judges so selected are to act till December when there will be regular election by ballot of the voters.
 At Limerick the police invaded a Sim Fein court and seized the pa- pers, but scores of courts are held every day and interference is not at- tempted because their time and place of meeting are usually kept secret except to the parties concerned. In some places, however, courts are held as openly as the Kings Courts. to encourage and develop the intel lectual, scientific and technical rela- tions which already exist between China and France.
 "France must not fail, at this time, while China, seeking to modernize herself, is calling for intellectual guides and technical counsellors, to answer that call. Anything that fails to present French culture to China leaves the way open for Ger man kultur, to our hurt"
 M. Painleve said his mission to China, which is his destination, has nothing to do with finance, but was purely educational, scientific and technical. with the idea of laying a l foundation for more thorough

Anglo-Japanese Treaty in Harmony
 With the League

London, Aug. 14.-A joint decla- ration of the British and Japanese governments that the Anglo-Japa- nese treaty, which has just been per- mitted automatically to renew itself for another year, is Gin harmony with the spirit of the covenant of the League of Nations" is challenged editorially by The Manchester Guar dian. It is assailed as "a typical example of those partial and exclu- sive agreements between particular powers which the League of Nations was designed to supersede."
 The Guardian says: Some people may be skeptical about the latest Anglo-Japanese Note, but it is most interesting and may be an extremely important document. The present Anglo-Japanese Treaty dates from 1911, and will run, in the normal course, till July 1921. But the For eign Offices of the two nations have remembered the covenant of the League of Nations. They point out that the treaty, though in harmony with the spirit of the covenant of the League of Nations, is not en- tirely consistent with the letter and they add that, if renewed next year, it must be in form which is not inconsistent with the covenant"
 "There is only one weakness about this statement, and that is that it's opening proposition is entirely inac- ho fVy in all it's forms has always been en- tirely out of harmony with the spirit of the covenant. It is typical ex- ample of those partial and exclusive agreements between particular pow CTS which the League of Nations was designed to supersede. It pledges each of the contracting parties to make war if 'by reason of unpro- voked attack or aggressive action the other finds it's territorial rights or special interests threatened in Eastern Asia or India.
 "The covenant, of course, provides an elaborate machinery by which the League will deal with such contin- gencies and bring it's collective pow CTS to bear on the offender, whether he is or is not himself among its members. The Anglo Japanese Treaty will need remodeling from top to bottom in order to make it consistent with the covenant. It will presumably be done by each power undertaking formally to go to war in support of the other after the League has definitely pronounced against an aggressor and ordered the enforcement of all the punitive measures contemplated in Article 16 of the covenant, which include mili- tary force but do not impose it's use as an absolute obligation on all the members.
 "There would be the protection of the League between us and war, and the obligation thrown on us by the treaty would be very different from what they are at present."
