The Brooklyn strike, while OF far
less immediate Importance and
gniflcance than the financial ait
uatiOn, has doubtless ranked in the
eyes OF the general public rs the
uppermost topic OF the week. 1t
has furnished many interesting
episodes and been the text for
much comment in the newspapers.
One aspect of the discussion OF this
strike, AS of Others that have pre-
ceeded it, involves II .ntradiction
that would be amusing v ere it not
so serious. The strikers are grave
ly ecu seled by the press and the
courts that they may strike but
not resort to violence. But expe-
rience has proved conclusively that
not me strike in ten can long
maintain itself, or succeed even
partly, without violence; for with
out violence the place Of strikers
can easily and promptly be filed
AS means of influencing public
opinion. strikes may stiIl be meas
urably successful and may ulti-
mately benefit wage-earners as a
class by calling attention to their
wrongs. But AS means of better
ing The condition of the man VIII
strikes, the ptaceable strike is nine
times out of ten costly delusion.
On the other hand a judicial
mandate su h as that of Judge
Gaynor, requiring railway compa-
MES to perate their lines whether
or not, simply ignores the Practical
question that every business man
must face. The general enforce
ment of such mandate would
fpave the way for universal labor
union and make possible a univer-
sal and simultaneous demand for
higher wages that might instantly
bankrupt every railway company
and every other public an SEMI
| public corporation in the country.
That would ut once necessitate the
! public ownership, practically il
if not actually, of all such agencies
Of transportation and other public
service. The question of publiJ
ownership is fairly debatable. But
even granting that it is the one

would evidently be unjust to seek

lowed, the other leading along new
and untried paths? Such at least

one course and some the other.
Whatever may be the truth with
regard to the antagcnistic financial
theories held by the sO-called "gold
men" on the one hand and the "sil-
yer men" on the other hand. one
thing is certain. President Cleve-
lends message has drawn the line
sharp and clear between the policy
of keeping the country on a gold
which, whether right or
wrong is the basis of the leading
countries of the civilized world
and the policy of permitting it to
drift upon silver basis. That it is
rapidly drifting towards silver
basis is generally admitted by the
leading advocates Of either policy.
The question that devides the
two forces is as to the relative
danger or advantage of one policy
or the other. 1t is undeniable that
the overwhelming majority of the
business men of the East and
North, the sections that comprise
the great bulk of population and
wealth of the country hold sub
stantially the view set forth in Mr.
Cleveland's message, while The

But it will be remembered that i
the summer of 1898, owing to tn
operation of the silver-purchas

FOREIGN AFFAIRS,

1t is universally recognized that
the political conditions in France
which brought about the fall Of the
Dupuy Ministry and the resigpa-
ton of President Casmir.Perier
two weeks ago still exist. The
..s.arse re- ". st.pis, therefars still
Viewed with the Keentst interest.
The question whether President
Faure will prove more resourceful
than his predecessor in dealing
with the Socialists and Radicals,
and more resolute and aggressive
in opposing them, Is already par
TALLY answered. He has succeeded
in getting a ministry that upon Its
first appearance in the Chamber of
Deputies has safely withstood the
onslaught of the revolutionary
forces. How long it will be able to
maintain a working majority re-
mains to be seen. 1t is significant
of the temper of the Chamber that
Bourgeois was unable to form a
ministry, Notwithstanding that he
had been the Minister Of Justice in
the reform Cabinet of Ribot that
laid bare the Panama scandals, and
had been the Radical candidate for
the Presidency against Casimir-
Perier when the latter was elected
Ribot who has taken the Premier
ship, is moderate Republican in
sympathy with President Faure,
and this fact leaves small ground
for hope that he will be able very
long to control the discordant po-
litical elements upon which he
must depend for support.
TO Americans, at least. the ugl
aspect of the complicans between
Mexico and Guatemala and the
growing probability of war between
the two countries, is a matter o.
even greater interest and moment
than the state of affairs in France
Public opinion in this country as
voiced in the press appears thus fal
to side with Mexico and to regard
the action of Guatemala as both
uniustifiable upon the merits of the
case and as little short of foOlhardy
when considered in the light of thu
disparity between the military an,
other resources of the two count
ries. Tie most plausible explana
ton of the beligerent attitude o
Guatemala is that the government
finds itself practically reduced to |
choice between internal war ant
the diversion of foreign war, re
