Until yesterday 1t was not supposed that
the police would have anything more to do
on the Glorious Fourth than to avoid the
mines laid for them by the mischievous
small boy or to assist the fire department
In the work 1t invariably has to do on that
joyful holiday. but 1t now appears likely
that few Of the club-swingers will have
to go to the east front Of the Capitol to-
morrow afternoon to remove from the steps
the body Of one r. S. Tharin. who pro-
poses to exercise the liberty of speech at
that time and place Sensible readers of
the newspapers must long ago have reached
the conclusion that there is no right in
herent in the citizen to address the multi
tude from any portion OF the Capitol or
within the Capitol grounds, and that ef-
forts to be eloquent within the prescribed
territory can only result in the indignity
Of arrest and probable Imprisonment 1t
Is quite possible that Mr. Tharin is in
search Of notoriety; If a reasonable term
In the workhouse can be SO regarded 1t is
likely that Mr.. Tharin may succeed in his
quest.

A remarkable exhibition of that which
- commonly called nerve is that afforded
By the horse-racing philanthropist. George
H Engeman, president of the Ivy City
Jockey Club When Mr.. Engeman inau-
gurated the so-called sport Of winter-racing
a the Ivy City track he procured from the
District authorities license for which he
paid the customary fee. 1t will be remem-
bered by many that Mr.. Engeman was not
content with mere 'forse-racing; it was
essential to the success of his enterprise
that there be bookmaking and a good deal
OF it. But to this decidedly Objectionable
feature the United States District attorney
took positive exception and finally sue
eeeded in causing the Indictment of Mr..
Engeman and several of his associates for
violation OF an anti-gamblng law of the
existence Of which Mr. Engeman did not
then seem TO be aware. That action closed
the track, and now Mr.. Engeman insists
that the District Commissioners should
cause 10 be returned to him the license fee
he paid This the Commissioners will not
do, for against the demand of Mr. Enge-
man is their own common sense the opin-
Ion Of the attorney for the District and
the great bulk of public sentiment. The
law does not contemplate any prohibition of
racing. and as Mr.. Engeman's license
merely gave him the privilege TO conduct
the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT he has not
seen mt TO do since the bunco bookmaking
was stopped-he is. in the language of the
attorneys opinion, TO be treated as yoIun-
tariIy abandoning the sport for which he
procured the license"

When the Senate can find an unoccupied
minute or two. the time might be put to ad-
vantageous use in the passage of Senator
Gallinger's bill requiring local street rail-
way companies whose cars are operated by
mechanical motors to equip each car with a
fender-the best obtainable fender-for the
protection and preservation of life and limb.
There have been many serious accidents in
this city that would not have been at all
serious had there been tenders on the cars.
Spasmodic efforts have been made to bring
about the needed reform without appeal to
the national legislature. but as the COM
panies have failed to do voluntarily the
proper and humane thing. a statute becomes
necessary. Senator Gallinger will have the
moral support of voteless community If
he will only push this bill through to a con-
clusion as rapidly as possible

emily full Of the most tender gentleness.
still they are ready at a moment to pro-
tect what they may regard as their pcerog-
atives and to signally resist in the most
vigorous manner any tendency that another
nation may display to intrude upon them
Consequently, while the republic at present
enjoys relations of a cordial nature with
every other government in the world, no one
can tell how long such a desirable state Of
affairs will continue. With this view Of the
question in mind it is the duty Of the ma
tional legislature to provide means by
which the further decadence Of our reacoast
defenses may be prevented. The dismantled
forts that dot the Atlantic coast from Lou
isiana to the Delaware river, and whose
garrisons now consist of a corporars guard
here and sergeant's squad there. should
be Immediately remodelled and recon-
structed and equipped with modern arma-
ment and manned by soldiers sufficient to
make them useful in time Of trouble The
inauguration of such system Of public
works would not only assure the future
safety of our wealthy and populous sea-
coast cities, but 1t would give employment
TO thousands Of the laborers who are now
ciamoring for work. and to whose enforced
idleness the depressed condition of the
country is due as much as to any other
cause. The present is the best time for the
consideration OF this momentous subject
and the attention of Congress is called to
the advfsability of taking it up.

With the coming Of every new phase in
the Industrial problem In this country there
appear suggestions Of compulsory arbitra-
ton either by the state or by the general
government. Men who are credited with
the possession OF sound sense insist that
only In such arbitration can there be found
remedy for such conditions as now affiict
the laborer and the capitalist. and those
who are to q considerable extent, dependent
upon both classes: although 1t should be
evident 10 every practical mini that arbi-
tration OF the compulsory sort Is abso-
lutely useless. II there is disagreement be-
tween employer and employed, and the two
parties assent to be governed by the con-
illusions and advice Of disinterested media
tor. then the arbitration theory becomes
practically valuable. and only then. Sup
pose. for instance. that Congress WERE out
Of the fathomless depths OF its wisdom. to
evolve statute which should bring into
existence a board Of arbitration empowered
to settle all differences of opinion between
capital and labo-. Suppose a strike in
large factory because the employer refuses
TO increase wages or reduce the hours OF
toll. The board of compulsory arbitration
then notifies the disagreeing parties that
IL will sit at certain time in a certain
place Suppose-as would most frequently
occu--that neither the employer nor the
workmen sought arbitration. and refused to
sanction the proceedings. Would the recall
citrant witnesses be imprisoned until they
consented to talk? But. supposing that they
did testify, what power known to mankind
and applicable in this age among this peo-
pie could compel either of the parties to
abide By the decision Of the board? The
governments representatives might come to
the conclusion that the employer was at
fault, and would notify him that he must at
once accede to the wishes Of his one-tirne
employees; but how could he be compelled to
open his factory doors If he had made up
his mini to keep them shut? He might be
ad5udged guilty Of contempt, but the
chances are that his factory would remain
closed. Just the same. Or, II the verdict
should be against the working people and
they be notified to return to their employ
ment, would Incarceration follow the re-
fusal that would almost surely be conse-
quent upon the finding of the court? 1t
would not be an easy thing to provide
prison accommodations for five or six thous-
and factory hands, and there would be
some difficulty in securing conviction, any
how. The compulsory arbitration PROPOSE
ticn Is ridiculous in the extreme and it is
surprising that so many men in public life
should discuss it seriously. Ii is impossible

milling. He was Friend by education
