In the bill for the settlement of labor
disputes on railways there seems to be
no provision for compulsory arbitration
or anything very closely approaching it.
The arbitration board proposed seems to
be very much like boards now existing
in some of the States. 1t will have the
power to tender its services, and it must
act il called upon by both parties, but
to thrust itself upon the parties to the
dispute, and settle their quarrel it is
not authorized. Such a board might
render some valuable service, inasmuch
as public opinion would undou btedIy
compel the parties of strike on rail-
roads to appeal to it, even where their
disposition was not to do SO. 1t is GER
taInly more promising than it would be
to thrust arbitration upon them by law

Mr.. John Burns, the English labor agi-
tator, would have stood better in this
country if he had remained at home.
Distance has lent good deal of enchant-
ment to Mr.. Burns. as it has to other
things, and nearness has disposed of a
large part of it. Burns has been in this
country but few weeks, yet he presumes
to speak of it's institutions, and of it's
cities as if he had made them the sub
jeot of long study that fully qualified
him to pronounce Judgment. He is con-
ceited and bumptious, and has succeeded
in making himself very disagreeable even
to the men who invited him here. His
disease is popularity known as big head. u

The ice houses on the Penobscot river
are practically empty. as only about 5000
tons remain along the entire river front.
The supply on hand was rapidly dimin-

is consequently very small supply on
hand.
