he was called to an important office.
Okuma was in realty an outsider in
Japanese politics and the strong in
huences in control would scarcely
have intrusted him with this post

all others for II. These counter in
iuences existed during the whole Of

cabinet cabals and opposition of
powerful clan leaders which forced
his resignation. Despite this ne was

il was he who made the clearest and

endeavored to maintain the most
cordial relations. He had no hesi-
fancy in declaring that IL this coun-
try should dispose Of the Philippines
they should go to Japan as the
dominant Power in the East. The
cardinal principle OF his foreign pol

might work out her own destiny, she
should have accorded to her the
privileges and rights OF the favored
nations. He could not see why this
position of his should affect the sit
uation between this country and
Japan. He believed that he knew
America and he maintained that a
thorough Understanding between the
two nations was the best safeguard
against embodiment and trouble.

GRIFFITH AS
RELAND'S LEADER.

RELAND'S LEADER. /
From the New York Herald
Step by step Ireland goes for
ward. The election OF Arthur Grif-
nth as President of the Dali will be
acceptable throughout the island,
except among the irreconcilable sep
aratists. As the founder of Sim
Fein his nationalism is unques-
toned. He has spent most of his
last twenty years in an effort to in
duce Ireland to manifest her ma
tional qualities in industry. art, sci
ence and letters. He has never been
a physical force man. but he has,
like many of the Irish leaders, gone
to prison for his political activities.
While Griffth is not as magnetic
in personality as Michael Collins,
who enters TIE new Cabinet as Min
lister of Finance. he has qualities far
more useful in the forming of the
Irish Free State. He is a master of
political science. In this he is far
superior to De Valera, who was his
pupil. In all Ireland there is no
cooler, clearer head for the prob
lens which confront State just
coming into existence. And he is a
bulldog for tenacity.
The work ahead OF Grifitk and
his cabinet is hard, but the pro-
gram is plain. BY the terms OF
| the treaty, Grinth is now at the
head OF the provisional government
which will administer in southern
Ireland until the treaty has been
translated into an act OF the West
minister Parliament. Tke British
government will transfer to the
provisional government the powers
and machinery requisite. for the dis
charge OF its duties"
There undoubtedly will be oppo-
dtion to the provisional govern
ments progress from the extremists,
1t may continue even until there is
general election IN ireland - an
event for which the friends Of the
free state are fervently praying.
Nothing but this election may end
the shouts Of the disappointed cap
tains. The issue at the polls will be
whether the nation desires to keep
the free State and peace or to pur-
sue the phantom of separation into
the swamp ofgwar and ruin.
That such could be the only issue
must be obvious even to the blind
est. Nobody can see II more plainly
than men like De Valera and Bur
CESS. They have had hard enough
time OF It with a united south Of
ireland behind them. Where would
they be with that same country
united against them? It is to be
hoped that in the interest Of har-
mony and in their own interest they
will accept the decision, even before
the general election.

Favors Physician For Welfare Body.

Emory l.. Coblentz, State Director
of Welfare, believes that one of the
members of the Board of Welfare
should be a physician of standing. To
this end it is probable that Mr. Co
blentz will recommend that Governor
Ritchie appoint DR.. Lewellys F. Bark
er to the Board.
DR.. Barker is chairman of the
physicians committee, which, at the
request of the present State Board
of Prison Control, has reported re-
Gently on conditions at the House of
Correction and the Penitentiary.
1t appears that Mr.. Coblentz is will
ing to allow the Governor to find
successor to William H. Lankford as
warden of the Cut.
There has been some speculation as
to whether Robert D. Case, secre-
tary of present Prison Board, will be
made secretary to the new Board of
Welfare. 1t seems that action to
supersede Mr.. Case may be deferred
year, as, he has an extensive knowl-
edge of the Prison Boards work.
The Director of Welfare takes the
view that he should devote all the
time necessary to discharge the
duties of his new Office, even if those
duties take six days out of the seven.
