the use of the canal the American congress exempt

Britain, and within a few months, without arbitra-
ton or anything bearing the semblance Of legal ac-
ton, congress reversed its former action, and in
eluded all American vessels in the toll list. making
no discrimination anywhere. There was a marked
difference OF opinion as to what the treaty might be
construed to mean. But the consideration which
governed the action of the United States was that
Of good faith.
The treaties which are now before the senate
have been negotiated on the assumption that all par
ties were acting in good faith. Without that ele-
ment of good faith the treaties would be worthless.
The United States cannot afford to be placed in the
attitude Of questioning the good faith of other ma,
tons with which it met on terms Of friendship and
equality. Neither can this country, by the adop-
ton Of a eaptious and hypercritical attitude, afford
to cast suspicion on its own good faith, and to ecu
vey the impression that it is seeking to create a
means whereby it can reap all the benefits which
may possibly be derived from the treaties, without
contributing anything Of its own.

The fact that the dirigible Roma, which went to
ruin at Langley Field a few days ago, had actually
made many trips without accident tends to support
rather than to weaken the arguments in favor Of
the dirigible. For two years the Roma had been in
the Italian service. 1t had traversed the Italian
peninsula scores OF times, carrying in the aggregate
large numbers OF passengers, and it was supposed
to represent the acme of security and serviceability
IN that field. The big ship was knocked down, ship
reason apparent at this time to suppose that the
work was not well done. The disaster at present is
attributed to the loosening of the rudder and to the
%buckling of some part of the framework under the
strain caused By the rudder displacement. The rud-
der has been described by some critics as a clumsy
altar. 1t was a structure consisting of three planes
OF considerable size, one above the other, resembling
IN appearance and size the triplane used for heavier
than-air navigation. But. clumsy or not, the rudder
has served we'll for two years.
The essential point seems to be that when some
thing went wrong everything went to smash, The
ship operated perfectly as long as nothing same
loose. But when something did come loose the
structure OF the craft was not strong enough to re-
sist, even for a limited time, the extra strain.
Such a craft is subject to strain from every di-
|rectlon. lhe adjustments must be very delicately
made in order to keep within the necessary bounds
OF weight. Strengthening in any important way
means increase of weight. To strengthen in a par
serve for that particular purpose. But the next ship
may have to meet an undue strain in some other
part. To provide against all those possibilities
means a vastly heavier structure, and weight and
|bouyancy do not go together. Yet it seems that
without such general Strengthening there cannot be
even reasonable assurance against such disasters as
have marked the whole history of the %dirigible.

GOOD FAITH AMONG NATIONS.

The essence OF a contract is the good faith
LOT those who negotiate it. There are few contracts
Whose terms cannot be evaded if there is a settled
to evade, unless there is a pledge of ample
collateral as a guarantee of ful7llment. This is en-
Ephatlcally true OF contracts between nations, where
ial parties are necessarily on honor, there being no
'-Hneans whereby fulhllment can legally be enforced.
I A few individuals in the senate are splitting
hairs over the wording of the treaties resulting from
1.-THE late arms conference. Amendments and reser-
.ivations and provisos of various sorts have been pro-
ipoeed, the effect of each being to cast doubt on the
lgood faith of the other nations participating in these
treaties, to convey the implication that in the for
Emulation of the treaties the United States has been
Hoodwinked and outgeneraled, and that unless a
flew commas and semicolons are inserted here and
There, the liberties and institutions of the United
States will disappear like the mists OF a June morn
ling.
In this connection some treaty history may be
inspected with profit. Long ago the United States
and Great Britain entered into a treaty whereby
aeaeh nation was to maintain no warships on the
Great Lakes, to maintain no naval bases there, and
Ito restrict its police force in lake waters to a desig-
mated puu1ber of small craft sufficient only for coast
guard duty. Inasmuch as it is impossible to ex-
press thought in language in such a manner that
there can be no misconstruction it is quite certain
lthat either nation, had it been 50 disposed, could
shaye adopted such 4 course which very quickly

THE CASE OF JUDGE ROBINSON.

Inc case OF Judge hoh1nsen is an illustration
OF what may be expected when judicial positions are
filled without regard to the judicial qualities of the
individual. Judge Robinson was selected as a eandi-
date tor the supreme court ]udgeship six years ago
not because OF his legal learning or his judicial mind
but because he was the law partner Of William Lem:
re, who was the close associate of Mr.. ToWnley in
the management of the affairs of the Nonpartisan
league. The public was told many times of the Sc
lection of candidates for that ticket in accordance
with the most approved democratic methods. Rep
resentatives Of the various districts gathered in a
room and discussed and>voted on all the persons
suggested for each office, and each persons selected
was the free choice of the entire assembly. So runs
the tale
Undoubtedly the form described was followed
But the fact remains that each of the men selected
was the personal choice of the little group who con
stituted the central governing body, and the pro-
l~ceedings were skillfully Unanswered in>such a man
ner that each delegate supposed that he was follow.
ing his own judgment instead of being guided and
controlled by a thinly yelled dictatorship.
The candidate having been selected, he was
presented to the leaguers as the man for whom they
were expected to vote, and they voted for him. The
fact that he had been endorsed by Townley was
enough for them. As to the precise method where
by he had been selected, that feature did not interest
them. The man was represented to be one that
would uphold the legality of ali that Townley had
proposed, and that was what Townley desired. r
Judge Robinson has been a disappointment to
the people who endorsed him and to those who
elected him. He has run true to form, but the form,
was not what was expected by his sponsors and sup
porters. Townley and Lernke long since gave him
up as hopeless, and it has probably dawned on the
minds of many members Of the league that they did
not get what they had looked for. Occasionally ef-
forts have been made to classify the judge with the
independents, but the Independents have refused to
accept jurisdiction or responsibility.
The performances Of Judge Robinson have been
the subject for no little hilarity on the part of OBJ
servers. But beyond and behind this there has been
a sense of shame and humiliation. There are some
thousands of North Dakotans who respect their
state and its institutions. They know that in his acts
and attitude Judge Robinson does not represent the
state. But they know also that because of him the
state is being made a laughing stock throughout the
entire country. People who are not familiar with
the ms and outs Of our political %scrambles conclude,
not unnatural1y, that the things that we get through
our own acts are the things that we want and ap-
prove Of, # we place a man like Judge Robinson on
the bench it is presumed that it is because he repre-
ssnts our conception Of judicial behavior, and that
whatever drama we undertake to play must neces-
sariiy turn out to be a farce.
