QUIT YOUR POOLING

The teapot tempest promoted by the
jealous antagonism of the fire depart
ment and the boiler inspectors office has
broken out afresh. At the city hall,
hourly bulletins are awaited with as
much anxiety as news from China in
the war Offices of Europe.
The first encounter between the op-
posing municipal powers resulted in a
the boiler inspector. The city attorney
decided that the latter had the right to
inspect the fire engine boilers, and that
an imperative mandate rested upon the
inspector to examine all the boilers in
the city. Here the matter has rested for
several months. But now, the inspector
gine boilers at once. The chief looks
wise and says he has had no orders from
the fire commissioners to permit an in
spection. 1t is further intimated that
the firemen are a husky set" and that
somebody may get thrown out" if an
attempt is made to inspect the boilers.
A physical encounter over the inspec-
tion matter really must not be
tolerated. The firemen and the
board of fire commissioners, as
we'll as the employees of the
boiler inspectors office, should remem-
Der that they are servants of the city,

AS AN ENGLISH ISSUE

In his remarks at the Silver Repub-
Altgeld prophesied that the chief issue
in the approaching elections in England
will be bimetallism. The present con-
dition Of English public sentiment and
movement fully justify the declaration.
| Prior to the withdrawal of the Franco
American ambassadors, memorial was
presented to the government, signed by
400 labor organizations representing an
enormous membership. demanding that
the ministry redeem it's pledges to do all
in it's power to secure staple par of
exchange between gold and silver. This
appeal was almost Immediately followed
by another signed by upward of 1900
merchants and shippers, members of the
Royal exchange of Manchester, to the
same effect, only that this paper set out
in detail the sufferings entailed upon
millions of British subjects in the Lam
cashire district by the monetary evils
described. Within a radius of forty five
miles of the Manchester exchange there
is population of 100000 souls, or near
ly one-fourth the total population of
England and Wales, and nearly all en-
gagged in industrial undertakings that
have suffered directly and almost i'm
measurably by the depreciation and
degradation of silver as an international
exchange. The fact that five of the six
members of parliament from this great
Industrial center are bimetallists, elected
upon that issue is an earnest of the cath
olic vitality of the silver sentiment, and
an assurance that the agitation is not
likely to speedily evaporate.
The failure of negotiations for inter-
national concert does not seem to dis
concert the friends of silver in England
United upon the single issue in the next
electoral contest, it is far from improb-
able that they will be able to overturn
the Salisbury ministry and compeIa GER
tain measure of respect for their views
on monetary questions. Progress in that
direction will be watched with more than
ordinary interest by bimetallists on this
side of the water

LONG ON LEGISLATION

The hasty action of the present con-
gress in passing the bill to prohibit pela-
gic sealing in Bering sea was in re-
sponse to administration pressure, 1t
being plausibly urged that this coun-
try could with better grace ask the CO.
operation of Great Britain after it had
placed upon its own statute books some
record of it's good intentions in the
premises. Now that Lord Salisbury has
declined to act for Canada, and that
country has refused to adopt similar
regulations for the protection Of the seal
herd, our government will not be ex-
pected to put forth extra -officious efforts
for the enforcement of the new law.
since that would be tantamount to the
policing of Bering sea in the interest of
Canadian fishermen. Just what action
the Washington authorities will now
deem wise and statesmanike is matter
for conjecture. A repeal by congress Of
an act passed but two weeks ago would
scarcely be considered dignfied pro-
ceeding. The probabilities are that it
will be held in allegiance, pending nego-
tiations for better understanding be-
tween the governments most directly
concerned.
