The railroad tie-up seems to be COM
plete throughout the country. There
has nveer been a strike of such magni-
tude since the birth of the republic.
How and when it will end, is difficult
to determine. As to the right in the
contention, there are, of course, many
different opinions. As to the merits in
the controversy, the people have but
little concern, but the great injury to
commerce and the industries of the
country is something that concerns all.
The strike is so far-reaching in its influ.
ence hat we believe it cannot last
many days. Outside pressure mus,
force some kind Of a compromise OF
the trouble at Pullman, as wa the case
in the recent Great Northern strike,
Vast interests cannot be crippled mol
the mail service clogged for any great
length of time. We should have laws
to compel arbitration of such troubles
The people have rights that should be
taken into consideration.

The murder of Sadi-Carnot, presi
dent of the French republic. is deplor
able. There was no provocation foI
the rash act, unless it he revenge fol-
the recent execution of anarchists.
Santo, the assassin, admits that he is
AN anarchist. Carnot was an able and
upright man and much beloved by the
masses. But the death of Carnot
will not disturb the young republic.
1t has already taken deep root i'm the
hearts of Frenchmen, and such
occurrences only strengthen the pat
riotic determination Of the people in
behalf OF greater liberty. 1t WAS owing
TO the exercise of liberty and freedom
of person on the part of the dead presi-
dent that he lost his life. But the
spirit cannot be checked by the bloody
hand of an assassin. Carnot is dead
but his soul goes marching on. This,
the greatest republic on earth, deeply
sympathizes with France i'm her great
loss.
