The Supreme Court Of Iowa decided early
last winter that the prohibitory amend
ment had not been properly submitted last
June and was therefore null and void. The
prohibitionists secured new counsel and
moved for rehearing which was granted.
They set up the plea that the judicial de-
partment could not inquire concerning the
steps taken in submitting an amendment.

The decision on the new points has just
been handed down. The Court sustains its
former position, and declares that the po-
sition assumed by the friends Of the amend
ment is not tenable. The amendment is.
therefore, finally decided to be not adopted,
and the whole agitation will, no doubt, be

The Board of Arbitration at Darlington,

line Board OF ArDIJraJIOn at Darlington,
England, have determined to apply the
policy of restriction to the production Of
iron plates, angles and bars, as q means of
preventing oyer-production, and thus keep
ing in operation the works, which give
employment to so many operatives. The
agreement was reached by mutual consent
Of proprietors and workmen. and the sug-
gestion came from the latter. The plan is
to cease work on each Monday, in the be-
lief that the reduced product from this
work reduction of time will give the mar
ket more strength, enable the pIDprietors
to sell to better advantage and to pay bet
ter wages for the time work is going on
This policy seems to be practical and wise,
and may have the effect not only in Eng
land, but in this country, if applied here,
of guarding against any general suspension
of operations and employment on account
of over-production. There is a great deal
of wisdom in the establishment of boards
of arbitration in manufacturing districts
OF localities. They consider the interests
of both the proprietors and the workmen,
and suggest remedies which prevent
strikes, obviate the necessity of suspen-
sion and confer benefits on all concerned.
1t is much better than to have the
conflicts we experience in America be-
tween owners and employees, resulting in
loss to both, and disturbing all the relations
of society. 1t is the only solution of the
iealoussies between capital and labor, and
the only way to establish q uniform under
standing which will operate to mutual adj
vantage. There would be no occasion for
strikes OF suspension from over-produc-
ton, were q constant supervision made by
boards of arbitration to prevent them-thus
regulating production by demand and Civ
ing workmen employment as the capital
found reasonable remuneration.
