Palmer's speech was restored by

Note this: Palmer's tongue, palate and
throat had not been destroyed, other

in the destruction OF these organs,

DEwEY's WELCOME.

one of the greatest events of the
closing days of the present month will
be the arrival of Admiral Dewey in
New York and the magnificent welcome
he will receive. 1t is true that public
interest in his great achievement has
somewhat abated, as the inevitable re-
suit of the lapse of time, but he will
have no reason to regret the lack of
warmth in his greeting. He Will ar
rive at New York from Gibralter on
Thursday, Sept. IS. The ceremonies OF
his reception in that city will occupy
Friday and Saturday, Sept. 20 and 80

An additional issue OF $50, 000, 900 TO $780,
100000 might legally be made by the
New York institutions, and 1t Is known
that several millions Of dollars of new
money will be issued this week. Bankers
expect by this means to tide over the
time OF active demand for money in the
interior, where 1t Is being used to move
the crops to market.
1t is stated that Insurance companies
so far this year have transacted bust
ness under worse conditions than for
several years previous. Loss ratios in
nearly all the states have been abnor-
mally large. Reasons for this are not
given; still, fires are not governed by
reason.
The servant girl problem appears to
be a puzzle across the water as we'll as
here. Many German housewives whose

The Standard OIL Company, In COM
batting legal effort in Nebraska to
Gust it, denies that 1t is a trust. and
declares that the antitrust statute un-
der which the attorney general Is acting
| Is illegal because 1t violates the state
constitutional provisions by ''depriving
persons of liberty and property without
due process of law and compels persons

against themselves" These legal tests
are more valuable in determining the
true status of great combinations than
llong-winded harangues against trusts
and the outcome will be watched with
interest. No state will cripple Itself
commercially to please class of politi-
cal fault-finders. Examinations against
trusts is one thing, and touching the
pocket-book quite another-a horse of q
different color.

"A CITYsS. SHOWING.
When a city is regarded by its peo-
pie as a great family whose Individual
members are Interested in each others
welfare, and when they unite to secure
the greatest comfort and health and
seek to promote the public good, an ala
most ideal state is reached. Such, we.
take it, is the purpose which the con-
vention of the League OF American
Municipalities at Syracuse, y. Y, seeks
to foster This toe. is a leading
thought of the paper on The Municipal
Ownership of Public servise Indus
tries by Mayor Pierce, of Marshall
town. the full text of which appeared
Wednesday. 1t is a paper based upon
practical. common sense views. The
showing is certainly one which should
crafty every citizen OF this municipal
ity. The comparison With eight other
Iowa cities is Very flattering to Mar
shalltown, Which has fine system Of
water works, for the maintenance OF
which no tax is levied, a street lighting
plant With los arc lights Of j. 200 candle
power. the expense Of which is paid out
of the general fund. while other places
levy a special tax for it. The city also
has seven and onehalf miles of brick
pavement, sixteen and one-haif
miles OF sanitary sewers, over
twenty-three miles of water mains
and free public library. II
has d smaller public debt than any
other city of its class in Iowa. the total
being 81, 600. 1t has smaller tax
levy than any of the eight cities with
which it is compared and in other re-
speets ii makes a superb showing
There may be and is some question
as to how far general utilities should
be owned and controlled by the public.
but SO far as Marshalitomn' experience
goes. il can endorse the public owner

return trip on Monday, with Admiral
Dewey and the detachment OF sailors
from the Olympia on board, so as to
arrive at the Pennsylvania depot In
Washington between and o'clock on
Monday evening October 2.
AS the train pulls into the Pennsyl-
vania depot in Washington, the roar OF
artillery will signal the arrival of the
distinguished guest, and Pennsylvania
avenue will burst into blaze of light
from the capitol to the treasury depart
ment. AS at present planned, the state,
war and navy buildings, the peace
monument, the Hancock statue, the
fountain at the corner of ninth street,
the reservation at the corner of Thir-
tenth street, and the dome of the capt.
toll will be outlined with fairy lamps.
Pennsylvania avenue itself will appear
as long arch of parti-colored fires, red
fire being burned at 200 places along the
route, while 10000 batteries will throw
streams of tri-colored stars in such a
way as to form arches of fire.
AS Admiral Dewey energies from the
Pennsylvania depot at Sixth street, es-
corted by the reception committee, he
will enter his carriage and take his

Olympia's men, headed by the United
States marine band, will take position
Immediately behind him and the process
sion will start westward up Pennsyl-
wanna avenue to the treasury building.
Here the admiral will leave his car
jriage, and take his position on the re-
viewing stand, past which the process
sion will file. Besides the military and
naval organizations of the District of
Columbia, the militia from number of
the surrounding states will be in line,
and there will be magnificent show
ling made by the secret societies, and
other local organizations. The illumi-
nation of the avenue will last for the
| the Two hours that the parade is esti-
mated to take in passing The reviewing
stand General Miles will be the grand
marshal of the parade.
Next day, Tuesday, October 8, the
magnificent sword of honor voted by
congress will be presented to Admiral
Dewey by Secretary Long of the navy
! department. The presentation will take
place at the east front of the capitol,
| late in the afternoon, upon stand to
be erected extending out from the east
steps. This stand will purposely be
! small, accommodating no more than 200
members of Admiral Dewey's party
and the invited guests. President Nc
Kinley will sit beside the hero OF Ma
Mia upon the stand, while the cabine,
officials and other distinguished per-
sons will occupy places about him.

judgment given. The relative impor-i
tance of these two bureaus is seen in the
reports of cases settled. In 1878 the
number of cases brought before the
oonseils was 35.O46. OF these 1S,415 We're
settled in private, 9,076 in the conseils
and formal judgment rendered in 1906.
1t is interesting to note, too, that of the
cases during that year the causes of
dispute in 21,36S We're relative to wages,
4,733 to disnissals and 1,795 to matters
affecting apprentices.
The only other country in which arbi-
tration and Cancellation has been em-
ployed to any considerable extent is
England, though the forms and meth
DDS used differ materially from the
French and Belgian. In 1924 all the va
were consolidated and replaced by
new one. This act was modelled after
the French law establishing the conseils
DIES prud 'hommes, but adapted to the
different character of English industry
and institutions. Provision was made
for compulsory submission of disputes
in certain specified cases upon COM
plant of an interested party; and the
awards could be enforced by law, but it
was specially provided that no author
ity was given to arbitration boards to
establish rate of wages that was not
agreeable to both employer and em-
ployed Though this act is still in force
in England, it has rarely, if ever, been
used Various forms of voluntary ar
bitration boards have arisen and seem
to fulfill all requirements
Thus it is seen that in these old coun-
tries where monarchical institutions
terest of the state in all labor troubles
is recognized and as a means of self
protection the government undertakes
to arbitrate labor disputes. In this
country, under a government and insti-
tutions far more democratic in form.
the subject has been often discussed,
but little or nothing done. The nearest
approach to an arbitration bureau is
our Interstate commerce commission,
which virtually stands as an arbiter be-
tween the people and the countrys
great railway corporations.
AS a general proposition the less a
government has TO do with mems pri-
waite affairs the better it is for both the
man and the government, but often cir
cumstances alter cases. Ten years ago
we never dreamed that we would en-
gage in a foreign war TO free foreign
people. but today we have done so and
few of US are sorry for it. The Cuban
disturbance became intolerable and in
self protection this nation was COM
PEELED to break over all precedent and
Sacrifice all its traditions. Likewise
with the local branches Of government.
If the state must suffer every time en-
lployers and employed disagree men car
not be blamed for thinking that tbs
state ought to interfere earlier in the
trouble when the greatest harm to itself
and its citizens could be averted.
