PROTECTIONs

Much is said concerning the cheap
labor Of Canada, but a protectionist
journal recently stated that an Ameri-
can company had sent 300 men from
this country to Canada to cut q large
tract of timber in that province. In
other words, the company found
that Americans did enough more
work than Canadians to warrant their
employment even in Canada. What
is more, American tools were used in
cutting the timber, showing that any
disadvantage in the price of our tools
is made up for by their superior
quality. In face of these facts, how
can anyone claim that this country
needs protection from Canada.

WHAT FREE SILVER MEANS.

The term free and unlimited COIN
age OF silver is misunderstood.
Many believe it to mean that every
thing in the shape of silver, bullion
or otherwise, will at once be coined
in unlimited quantities and thrown
on the street. Only those who have
silver to coin will take it to the mint,
and only those who earn it will or
should legally be permitted to pos
sess it. But then foreigners will
send their silver here to be coined if
it is free, and that will give us too
much money" is another cry. II a
dollars worth Of silver comes from
across the water. q do liars worth Of
some American product will be ex-
changed for it, unless the foreigner
is reckless enough to send his bullion
for nothing. If he desires to coin
his silver into American dollars, they
must circulate here and pay for labor
and commodities here; for as soon as
they go abroad they must go through
the crucible and appear in another
form, as the money Of another nation;
and gold must do exactly the same.
Every argument that has been or will
be used against silver can with equal
force be directed against gold, for
there is no such thing as money of
the world" We see no foreign coin
in circulation here. There is no
American coin in circulation in an
other country.-T. Y. Powderly in

HoRsE-RACEs AND GAMBLING.

1t is interesting to observe the energy
with which the New York Recorder COM
pounds the sin it is inclined to by repelling
the comparison of gambling at baccarat
with gambling at horse-racing. "The in
ference is unfair" says the Recorder
money is won at the horse track as in
steamboat racing and stock breeding or
baseball. This, however, is money earned
by enthusiasm or emulation. Gambling is
money earned by chance"
The peculiar phraseology in the predica-
ton of earning money by chance in
gambling is not more remarkable than its
hazy casuistry. Chance enters to greater
or less extent into all effort. The gold
diggers earned their money largely by
chance; while as to the other'side of our
moral philosophers definition, we imagine
there is as much enthusiasm and emula-
ton in baccarat or draw poker as in bet
ting with bookmakers or in the French
pools.
Of course, the real touchstone of gamb-
ling in its moral aspects the effort to make
a gain which shall be another mans loss.
Apart from that it is interesting to note
how our cotemporary's defense of the
racing mania, in repelling the idea of
chance in connection with horse-race win
nings, unconsciously establishes the not
unfounded inference that these events are
setup beforehand so as to make them sure
things for the insiders.

IRON WAGES SETTLED.

The satisfactory settlement of the wage
question in the iron mills for the ensuing
year has been foreshadowed all along, but
it is not the less matter for general con-
graduation. There was some of the usual
protestation on the part of mill proprietors
that they would not assent to certain feat
Ires of the scale; but the amount of such
talk was less than usual and meant less, as
the final agreement shows
This ensures steady operations in the
mills for the next twelve months, and car
ries with it the promise of fair activity In
the branches of trade dependent on the
iron industry for their custom. For that
gratifying result the spirit of conServa-
ism and mutual consideration which has

past few years deserves credit In
respect the iron industry sets a good

INTERNATIONAL COPYRIGHT.

By proclamation of the President, the
international copyright went into effect
yesterday, with regard to Great Britain,
France, Belgium and Switzerland. This
will inaugurate a new era in our national
position with regard to the rights of author
ship as between different countries.
1t is hardly to be disputed that the
former condition of United States legisla-
ton, by which the works of material in
ventors were thoroughly protected,
whether of our nation or some other, while
the works of authors were made the
material for indiscriminate looting, was
distinctly discreditable. 1t puts the coun-
try in peculiar attitude toward literary
talent, that the efforts made to place them
on an equality with inventors in the ma
terial line have been postponed and de-
feated so long by special interests. That
we have at last made an attempt to estab-
lish international protection to authorship
is gratifying evidence of progress.
OF course the success of the present law
is to be settled only by experience. That
experience cannot be regarded after the
lapse of weeks or months, but only after
i0o cAoCtS lUI years Cdu UoIS'icmcu Will us
exact value be calculable. The law con-
tains provisions with regard to the protec-
ton of certain special interests of such
character that it can hardly be taken as an
example of international copyright pure
and simple. These provisions will make
it necessary to be more deliberate in max
ing verdict as to the actual results of the
enactment
But as definite step in'the way of rec
ognizing the property of authorship the
new law is gratifying to every cultured
American. Whatever changes experience
may indicate we may be assured that
further steps will not be backward, and
that the principle of international copy
right has at last a definite footing in our

TRACTION CAR COLLISIONS.

A danger arising from multiplication
of cable and electric railways, and which
requires stringent precautions, was EN-.
phasized yesterday by the collision of a
cable and electric car in the East End.
One or two other collisions have occurred
before and there have been several narrow
escapes. But this casualty-tne first in
which there has been actual injury to
people-makes the lesson especially i'm
pressive.
In view of the fact that the necessities
of cable and electric lines call for higher
rate of speed than was possible by the old
horse cars, the multiplication of crossings
establishes no inconsiderable danger. Yet
the degree to which this multiplication has
been carried will be realized by fewpeople
who have not taken the trouble to count
them. In the lower part of the city there are
eleven such crossings or intersections, with
from two to four different companies using
the tracks at each, and three at the major
fly of them. When the Manchester line is
finished the total will be increased to thir-
teen, without including any of the cross
ings by horse car lines. If the outer por-
total will be swelled to over a score.
1t is worth while to note that many Of
hese crossings might have been avoided
Y adopting the principle of common
acks and belt lines where different COM
Inies come into close proximity. This
ould have decreased the danger from the
ossings in addition to preserving some of
avenues for the use of vehicles. But
that policy was lost sight of in the rush
new transit lines, the most thorough
recautions are required to prevent the
ecuTence of such collisions as that of
esterday.
Without undertaking to decide the dis
tied question of personal responsibility
the collision, it is plain that the safety
the public, and the proper protection
+ life on the streets, requires the strin-
;ent enforcement of all the precautions
lecesSary to prevent such casualties.
