The new treaty with Japan can hardly fail to be effective in bripg ing this country and the island ern pire into more harmonious rela tion*, with a consequent gain to each. The measure, which will not go into effect until July, 1899, practically places the Japanese on a footing, commercially., with the other nations of the civilized world. It provides for the enjoyment of equal privileges by the citizens of either country traveling or residing in the other,and entitles the Japan¬ ese to full liberties to enter and re¬ side in the United States without any restrictions not placed in com¬ mon upon people of other countries. The Japanese here shall be allowed free access to the courts, and in all matters connected with the ad ministration of justice or the dis¬ position of property they shall stand equal before the law with American subjects. Reciprocal freedom of commerce and naviga¬ tion is also provided for, the port6 of each country are declared free to the other, and in all matters per¬ taining to trade, exports and im¬ ports,commerce and navigation aifd the establishment of consulates the two nations exchange the same privileges offered by cither to the people of any other country. The terms virtually place Japan upon equal footing as one of the “most favored nations.” In re turn the treaty secures an enlarge¬ ment of American interests in Japan, and, in addition, whatever good feeling may Tie due to this early recognition of that nation’s advance among civilized countries. The new treaty marks a milestone in Japan’s /progress, and. gives promise of greatly increased com¬ mercial benefits to the United States. To Legalize Railroad Pooling. Thomas B. Reed’s three-minute speech last week on the bill to per¬ mit railroad pooling, which i9 now before the house, probably pleused the railroad lobby. The gentleman from Maine inti¬ mated that he was in favor of such a bill, provided the interests of the railroads, of their stockholders and of the people at large w?uld be pre¬ served. He said that the experi¬ ence of Maine showed that it was much more advantageous to have one united railroad which furnished transportation at a reasonable rate than it was to have two or three rival railroads which were compe¬ ting and cutting each other’s throats. “In short,” added the in¬ genuous Yankee, “the outcome of idation there turned out to be far better than any of us had an tkipated. I opposed the consoli dation, but I watched the results and found that the consolidation, j tur nmg out to the pub “ v^tage, resulted in better * that main Mr. issue.

The railroad pooling bill seeks to make lawful that which railroads hare been doing unlawfully. ' Legislation which cripples rail¬ roads, compells theip to operate at a loss, and thus lowers the efficien¬ cy of the freight and passenger ser¬ vice, should be put down, but, as in the case of some of the western states, it carries its punishment with it,for the roads have the pow¬ er of retaliation at band and have not hesitated to use it. On the other hand, legislation which le¬ galizes a custom prolific of evils against the people, of the worst form of discrimination in favor of certain sections against others, and which stifles-,if j|^does not kill,that fair competition^ which is the life of all trade and business, is not to be tolerated. It may be that “as Maine goes so goes the election,” but it does not follow that Maine’s snug little railroads are a safe model for the country. For 5ale.
