Tho text of a now treaty with Japan, designed to replace tii.it of 1894 and drawn with the special design of eliminting the restrictions upon tinmigration contained In that treaty has been laid before the S? nate b> President Taft. The essential difference between tb proposed treaty and the existing oonveiilion is said to be in the fact tli it ii omits all reference to such rest-ictions and leaves to tlie* national hoiior of Japan the enforcement at her own ports of the limitations upon emigration from .japan now expressly placed upon immigration into the United States.

Chairman Wrleht. of the Federal relations committee of the Senate, sent the following telegram to President Taft: Letter to President. "Mr President: California 4s much alarmed over the newspaper reports of the proposed new Japanese treaty. The Federal Government, unless positively assured that Japan will enforce regulations restricting immigration to United States of such subjects :is are inimical to out.Western civilization, should insist upon a restriction clause in the new treaty.

IIAVE NO NEGKO NOTARIES. Clerks of Court In the IHfTcrent Counties llavc Ikvn Notified Not' to Enroll Them. No negroes will be commissioned 1 is notaries public during the administration of Governor Coleman L. Blease No r.egr ps have thus far >een commissioned by the Governor) -io far as he knows, and he has taken steps to prevent them qualifying If my should he commissioned by mistake. Clerk of Court G. Lawrence Bailey, n common with the clerks of court >f the other forty-two coantles lu South Carol la a. has been notified from the Chief Executive's office not to record the names of any negroes who may apply under the law. If. by chance, any negroes happen to be commissioned. Governor Blease says he "will cut ofT their political heads." This information hns been con- j veyed to the clerks of court In the \ several counties of the State, being the gist of a letter sept out in man!-', 'old from the Governor's office. For the first time is thus given what may ! have been the controllin? reason why Governor Blease revoked the eommiss.ons of the T.Orto notaries in the State, called upon the General Assenthlv to pla"p restrictions around the notaries lob. and then reappointed those to whom he wished to give the posit ion of notary. Governor 'lipase's letter to the clerks of court states unequivocally that he has not nor will he commission any negroes as nortaries pub'le; that the clerks of court shall refuse to record the names of negroes; that if any apply the names shall he sent in to the Governor, as some may have slipped through In the luit few weeks. and that if any have been ap-, pointed "I will cut off their political heads." Under the new lawj it is necessary for a person who has been com missioned from the Governor's office to _'o to the clerk of court in his county. have his name recorded b.s a notary. with the date of the commission. It is of more than passing Interest that this information was not given out at the Governor's otllce. Steel Trust Is Shrewd. For Ingenuity the "Heathen Ghfnee" is not to be compared with the ntoel I trust. As restraint of trade and combinations are Illegal, the trust, so ft is said, gets around the difficulty by its plan of "neighborly kindness. ' This is an application of the Golden Rule within a limited area. In other words other steel concerns are expected to show this "neighborly kindness" by not opposing the trust. If any concern should be so forgetful of its interests as to do it. other concerns. supposedly influenced by the trusts, are to lal>or with the unneiglihorly action. If it proves obstfnate no one knows what would happen to it, but anyone can make a shrewd guess. There are some wonderful and ingenious ways of keeping the letter of a law and of breaking It in ' spirit. That Is the way Carnegie made his millions. ITo is trying to ease his conscience by giving thsni away, but he can't. Thinks for Herself. That Canada is able to negotiate commercial treaties with other countries shows how near to being an independent nation she has become in recent years. This la again seen in her i>osse?aion of a separate army and navy, in her coinage and postage, and in the right to make her own tar ffs. To he sure the crown has the right of veto on any measure the Canadian parliment may pass, but that right would never he exercised on any question upon which Canada 1 might make up her mind. in the present reciprocity treaty there are people in Croat Mrllian who would like that veto to he used or for the British parliament to go counter to Canada's action. Hut Canada would 'nke wi'li ill grace any such interference, and it would but serve to weaken the tie which although sentimental rather than political, binds the daughter to the mother and which at present Is vorv real and strong.
