 The Presidents labor message does not meet the hearty approval of Master Work man Powderly. Mir. Powderly wants a de- partment of labor. He says: ssI don't believe in doetoring these troubles I want to % to the root of the disease. Strikes are but medicine. They relieve the patient for a time, but his sickness comes back to him, The matter must be seriously and carefully studied. We need department of labor, to have records on file, to make careful and constant study of the labor question and be ready to act and to recommend action at any time. Arbitration should be conducted from this department" The commission on arbitration he likes better than the bill which came from the House labor committee, which provides for arbitrators to be appoint ed in each particular case.
 The principle of arbitration is growing in popularity and it seems to be the best meth cd of settling differences between employers and employed. But to work well it must be properly used. As MT. Gould pointed out, arbitration ought to come before strike rath- CT than after one. And certain rights of employers and employees cannot properly be- come subjects of arbitration. For instance, an employer cannot submit to the decision of others his right to hire whom he pleasss. Nor can workingmen submit to arbitration their right to join a labor organization. Questions of wages, of hours to work, etc., are proper matters for arbitration, and the principle can be applied to them with more or less success.
 Arbitration is probably destined to have fair trial. We suspect that it will not work as we'll as some think it will, especially if it is not entirely voluntary. A well known when asked his opinion of ar made the shrewd reply that 'arbi- tration usually split the difference" sSplit- ting the difference' is not always justice, Arbitration to be successful and satisfactory will have to be conducted with great intelli- gence and wisdom And it seems almost necessary to have arhitrators ir each branch of business who thoroughly understand that hranob

A writer in the Bombay Gazette says: ''There are two great religious edifces in Mandalay, which it is the duty, as it is the pleasure, of the traveller to see. The city, like all Burmah, teens with pagodas and it's graceful building in white or gold, giving evidence of the piety and of the lavishness ot their innumerable founders. The amount of money thus expended during centuries, and now still lavished year by year, and month by month, is past the counting of all the clerks in the Bank of England; the roads, the palaces, the Notifications, the aqueducts, that might have been built with all this brick and mortar, to say nothing of the stucco or the gold leaf, sometimes an inch thick. A chance fire burned down the great pagoda, and the gold melted from its immense surface is said to have been worth some sixty five lakhs It was replaced by Theebaw and more gold added. This enormous waste of the national resources, persevered in through generations, may account for the manifest poverty of the population, which lives for the most part in habitations of wicker work, eked out with mating. There is no accum- ulation of property; every family lives an ephemeral life; those that come after will live the same.
 ''The palace in Mandalay is composed of blanks carved and gilt profusely indeed; but there is not pucka wall to give consistence or permanence to a single wing of it. Three or four miles away the plinth of a pagoda was built by Nindo- Min with such an extrav agant waste of solid material that, even as it stands it is said to be the greatest mass of brickwork in the world. An earthquake nothing else would sufficient it, and the pagoda never was built on it. But there it ligious structures which marked that mon arch's reign. In Mandalay itself he erected a amonastery-the sLike-of-which-t there not the lncomparable, which possesses room unquestionably the finest in all Mandalay. It would be no great stretch of fancy to say it is the first in the world. The building is composed of series of bold terraces, six in number, rising one above another, the central one being the Highest. The golden room is carried on 36 pillars, some of which 70 elevation in the high central terrace, under agolden throne. The boldness of the general design, the noble proportions of the immense hall, and the great height attained over the prise and pleasure. Pillars, walls and cell ing are richly gilt, glass inlaying heightenlng the brilliancy.
 ''The chief commissioner has shown his appreciation of the beautiful in prescribing the Incomparable as the scene of the great ceremony, if circumstances permit of it's be- ing held. Externally the building is vast, but plain in design and material; the walls
