.RIGHT OF RACIAL INTEGRITY.
One important point, that lias
been generally overlooked in all j
this discussion over the Oalitor
nia law against alien ownership J
of land is the right of every na- j
tion to maintain its racial integ
rity. Japan lias recognized this
•right by prohibiting 'foreigners
from, owning land in Japan, ex
cept under most restricted con
ditions. California and the Unit
ed States unquestionably have a i
similar right.
The common error m cases 01
this kind is in the assumption
that, an exclusion law or a res
triction law implies inferiority on
the part of the people1 who come
under the operation of such a
law. Nothing is farther from the
facts. Thinking men in America
do not look upon the Japanese
and Chinese as inferior races,
even if we do not care to lake
them into full cilizcnshrip. Chi
na and Japan both have civili
zations much older than ours.
In many rospects they are our
superiors in certain lines ol
thought and endeavor, just as we
are their superiors in others. Ra
cial distinction does not by any
means imply superiority of in
feriority.
That the great mass of Ameri
cans are friendly to the Japanese
is true, just as it is true that the
majority of the educated and in
fluential Japanese are friendly to
the Americans. It is the business
of the two governments to see
that the views id' the enlightened
citizens of each nation prevail
and not those id' the jingoes. Cal
ifornia’s oll'eiise in this whole
matter is not that il has done
anything in violation of our trea
ty with Japan, nr that il has done
anything inherently illegal, bill
that il lias unnecessarily done a
thing calculated to give substance
to the shoutings of jingoes at
home and in Japan.
POPULARIZING CITY 30NDS.
Tin* cily <it' SI. Paul got into
the limelight Hie oilier <lav
through the acl ion of a di'part
menf store iu placing district im
provement bonds on the bargain
counter and disposing of some
thing like #88,000 of them in a
few hours. Now conies another
innovation in that line, backed by
James J. Hill and bis banking as
sociates.
Mr. Hill lias evolved a plan by
•which he proposes to take the
bonds the municipality may de
sire to put out. to place them in
trust a (id issue certificates
against them in denominations
of $10 and upward. The certi
ficates will draw interest at the
full rates of i 1-2 per cent, the
oank making no profit on them
and making no charge for the cost
’of handling. Mr. Hill’s trust com
pany, which is backing the plan,
■will get its profit by the natural
patronage of tne people who pa
tronize the company because of
its bond offering.
The plan is a valuable adver
tisement for St. Paul, showing
that the city can finance its own
improvements, and also is a fine
example of what may be accom
plished by public-spirited effort
and civic loyalty in the upbuild
ing of a city._
AMERICAN SHIPBUILDING.
Efforts that have been made in
the last score of years to encour
age a revival of the American
merchant marine have not been
productive of tangible results, but
the prospect of the early opening
of the Panama canal has given
the industry a wonderful impet
us.
Thera was launched from
American shipyards during the
month of April 167 vessels with
an aggregate of 45,397 tons. If
this record could be kept up «or
the following twelve-month the
total output would about equal
that of a good year in the “palmy
days” of the American merchant
marine. There would be this de
cisive difference, (hat whereas 50
or 00 years ago, when we added
50 tons of the cargo carrying-ca
pacity of our mercantile licet
most of it we'n! where if would
do the most good to our foreign
carrying trade.
Today only about one-eighth of
our tonnage is employed in for
eign \(>yan«*s. Our roaslwisr
trade, from which foreign Hags
are excluded, is responsible for
our statistical position among
maritime, powers. There is no
indudemenf to invest money in
building vessels for any other
than coastwise commerce. The
Panama canal has given a greal
impelu. Io shipbuilding in the
I.oiled Slales and may lead to the
construction of a higher type of
steamers Ilian we have commonly
known. The two 23-knolters be
ing constructed with so much se
crecy at Philadelphia are under
stood to be destined for a ‘'Pan
ama route.”
A Standard Oil dividend of iOO
per cent is pretty severe on the
old theory that oil and water do
not mix.
“We have pul an end to those
who decried our republic,” says
the sheriff of New York. The
boast does not agree with the re
ports fro Patterson.
Over in China the Democratic
party is called Kuo Ming Tang.
It is called harder names than
that in (his country, particularly
by the standpatters.
Arizona is demanding that Un
cle Sain chaiige his treaty with
Japan. As the newest member
of the Union family, of course
Arizona feels like bossing things
for a time.
Mr. Carnegie held a building lot
next door to his New York home
for lifleen years and then sold
it at a loss of $15,000, in order to
get the right kind of a neighbor.
The high cost of neighbors ap
parently must also he considered
in figuring the high cost of living.
Let’s hope, for Mr. arnegie’s
sake, lhat his new neighbor does
not insist upon keeping chickens.
