Newton Asks Rate Hearing
Attorney General Urges SUI.
preme Court to Advance Case

WASHINGTON, April 12-Advance-
ment to early hearings of the New York
case. involving authority of the Inter
state Commerce Commission to advance
rail rates within state, was asked Of
the Supreme Court to-day by Attorney
General Newton of the state.
The issues involved, he said. were
wider even than those in the Wisconsin
rate case, as the New York cae would
determine the effect of charter con
tract, which fixed a state fare "as
condition to corporate creation" and
the power of the commission over car
rlers doing little or no Interstate
business.

Most stores take but the

trunk measurement, which
IS even more important.
We take both and in

that union suits are more

Oil and Mexico.

Light breaks as to Mexico. Why
not a clear sunrise, and a dissipation
of all the mists that have fioated and
still float between the Mexican gov
ernment and the American govern
ment?
Oil is the principal trouble. A good
deal of American money is invested in
Mexican oil wells, and the investments
have been the subject Of much discus.
sion, and, it is charged, of much mis-
chievous Misrepresentation.
The Mexican people have been asked
to believe that the American oil in
terests want to run their government:
that If they fail they will try to en-
broil the two countries in war, in the
confident expectation that America
will win, and annex Mexico Then,
they will be Sin turn" masters Of the
oil situation and Of a good deal be.
sides.
The American people have been
asked to believe that the Mexican gov
ernment has it in for" the American
oil interests, and Is trying to drive
them out of the country; that if heavy
will not turn the trick, con.
fiscation will be resorted to-.
To deal with the situation a confer
ence is to take place between officials
of the Mexican government and repre-
of leading American oil in
terests. At this conference the whole
oil question as 1t affects Mexico and
America will be canvassed, and an ef-
fort made to reach an understanding
agreeable and profitable to both sides.
Let us hope that the conference ac.
its object; that as oil has
caused the commotion, oil be poured
on the troubled waters. The hair Of
the dog should be good for the bite.

barely possible thae certain crs may
be planted by airpiaae IN rrdch the
same manner as the Ohio orchard was
sprayed. The airplane may not de.
velop as tractor" but there are
farms out in the west where plane
transit from one part of the establish.
ment to another would be a real
economy Of time.
Speculation as to the possibilities Of
the airplane are not altogether wild.
One has only to stop and think Of the
incredulity with which the thing itself
was greeted very few years ago. It
would always be a toy, a scientific
plaything, a dangerous sport, with the
chances overwhelmingly against the
operator. 1t could never have the least
commercial utility. 1t could never be
depended on to carry passengers. 1t
was even of a very doubtful military
value. There was no end to the skepti.
cism.
But look at the airplane today,
carrying the mails daily, transporting
special express. used in emergencies
for swift passage Of people over long
distances. bringing doctors in hurry
up cases, making train connections
and even carrying people out to sea
to overtake missed" steamers. And
now spraying trees! Shades Of Langley

Bishop Brent on the Philippines.

Bishop Brent Of the Episcopal dio.
cese of western New York, who before
elevation to his present Office spent
some years in the Philippines and dis.
tinguished himself by his work for re-
ligion there, was a speaker the other
night before the Institute of Politics
at Williamstown, Mass. With refer.
ence to the Philippine question Of to-
day he expressed the opinion that
"the time will come when. by mutual
understanding between the United
States and the Filipinos themselves.
the Philippine Islands will be recog.
nized as ready for complete auton-
omy."
Dipping into history. Bishop Brent
said:
'Since 1901 American control of the
Philippines has brought to the Islands
an unprecedented period Of peace and
prosperity. Politically. the watchword
maintained by the United States at
Manila has been progressive independ-
ence' In the development of American
policy in this direction there are two
criticisms to be made of the last ad-
is that, whereas all appointments to
Philippine office had formerly been
made without regard to American
home politics. after 1913 the partisan
line was very sharply drawn. The Sec
ond is that. whereas men of real lead
ership had always before been sent to
high office there. in recent years the
men sent have been of the kind who
are content merely to find out what
the people want and then give them
their desire
American politics did not dictate the
taking over Of the Philippines. and
should never have played a part in
our work in the islands. The peace
treaty with Spain was negotiated by
republicans and democrats acting to-
gether, not as such. but as Americans
the obligations Of the gov
ernment with respect to former Span.
ish possessions brought under our con-
troll by the result of the war over
Cuba. And votes in the Senate for
of the treaty were fur
nished by republicans and democrats
acting together.
No American politics in the Philip
pines. While we remain in control
we are likely to remain for some time
yet-let us keep in mind only the gen.
eral welfare Of the people gagged by
conditions and demands there, and
which for score Of years has been,
by all testimony, greatly promoted.

ward Of this country. It came into
being in consequence Of the canal
enterprise. The revolution which ef-
fected its separation from Colombia
was made possible by the at least
quiescent attitude of the American
forces. But having achieved independ.
ence, Panama should regard herself as
bound by all the obligations that af-
feet nation, irrespective Of her origin
or the circumstances of her liberation.
The American people would greatly
deplore the spectacle of a conflict on
the isthmus over title to small strip
of land, the ownership of which has
been formally allotted to Costa Rica
by the judgment of the highest judicial
officer Of the United States. Though
not under any obligation to do so, and.
indeed. fully conscious of the risk in
volved of being subject to the sus-
picion of undue coercion. this govern
ment would be justified in enforcing
the award by the forcible clearance of
the area in question by American
troops and the transfer of the land by
them to Costa Rica. The present hope
is that the case will not approach the
point Of such possibility.

The Disputed Isthmian Area.

Panama has the advantage Of pos

by Costa Rica, and the latter country,
in order to collect on the Judgment Of
sthe arbitration. must assume the
Initiative and invade the territory.
thus Panama has only to stand pat,
prepared to hold fast II she resists the
execution Of the award.
Doubtless there will be specific ex.

part Of the United States to take a
hand in the dispute. though it may
come about that the American forces
will eventually maintain order and be

sovereignty in the area Of controversy.
The present hope is that the Pana-
mans. however badly they feel over
the outcome Of the arbitration and the
refusal Of this government to overturn

award without conflict. A war over

sThe Heart of the Nation :"

>>S~~~s
The new name for Washington jus,
adopted by an organization Of mer
chants in this city. Yesterday they
called on the President and presented
to him the first copy" of the new
symbol embodying this thought, which
comprises picture Of the dome of the
Capitol surrounded by the outline of a
heart, with the mottoe encircling it.
Washington has been the heart OF
the nation ever since it was estab.
1ished. Other cities, with a much
greater start and some with no start
Rt all then, some Of them. indeed, not
dreamed Of as possibilities, have great.
ly outstripped it in population, in
Awealth, in industrial production, in
commercial importance. But from the
mnoment the government was located
here Washington was the heart of the
pation.
For the past fifty years it has been
Especially the national center. The
hivil war. which decided the issue
against subdivision, gave the National
Capital an increased prestige. In that
half century it has grown to close
upon half million people, a far
greater city in size than it's critics of
the "capital-moving days" fifty years
ago were willing to concede as the ex-
hreme Of possibility. And while Wash
1ngton has never become, and prob
Rbly will never become, an industrial
Acenter, It has developed business i'm
Mts business men are forward looking
and enterprising. They are public
spirited and are animated by a strong
sRffection for the city. Their present
Hdesire to advertise Washington springs
efrom this field, and is altogether
spraiseworthy. But Washington, in
S1act, advertises itself. What it chiefly
bnseds is understanding, not exploita-
tion. Very few Of the people of this
country know the conditions in which
Washington is maintained. An as
''tonishingly large number Of Ameri-
pcans do not know that the Washing
stonians cannot vote. 1t Is rare to find
tone who has any idea Of how the capt.
tai municipality is financed. And there
.ds much prejudice in consequence Of
This ignorance.
What Washington needs more than
anything else is the understanding Of
the American people of its peculiar
situation, the limitations that have
sbeen imposed upon 1t by law and GUS
NOM to prevent It from becoming a
Aarge Industrial center, the peculiar
conditions affecting its fiscal resources,
pts Lack Of any participation in the
emaking Of its own laws or the dis
stribution Of its own money. Its at
Mractions as residential city, as a
3comfortable place Of business, as
aauiet, orderly community, as one of
ithe most beautiful capitals of the
world, are widely known and are be-
roming better known through publi-
.cation and through the tales of tour
lists who come here by the tens of
thousands every year. But the flag Of
tshe heart will symbolic Washington
senectively, and 1t should be sent forth
as a banner Of conquest all over the
acountry, to win the hearts Of the peo-
..ple for the city that Is their own,
wherever they live.

Warfare and Weylerism.

On the eve Of the great peace con

November comes an interesting piece
Of news. The Star. in a special cable
from Madrid, published it yesterday
Spain in her embarrassments as to
Morocco rejects proposition for the
revival Of Weylerism. The extermina.
tion of a people does not strike her as
it did twenty-odd years ago in dealing
with Cuba.
Although Spain could not be brought
to believe it, there was something
wrong in her policy as to
Cuba. This has been very clear to
everybody since the termination Of her
authority in the island. The people
there had just grounds for grievances
against Spanish government. Relieved
Of those grievances, they have made
praiseworthy and gratifying progress.
But Gen. Weyler-'the butcher" as
he was called then-ignored every
claim to reform. and could read in his
commission nothing but the extermi-
nation Of the Cuban complainants;
and he shaped his course accordingly.
The world would not sanction such
procedure. America in particular de.
nounced it. and took the steps neces.
sary to end it.
Weylerism, then. is out of date.
Its author-an octogenarian-has not
grown, but Spain has. She will not

she gave her approval a score of years
