A STRIKE ENDED.

After twenty-five weeks-almost half
q year-of endurance and strife, the
strike of the Marlboro shoemakers has
virtually come to an end. These people
have had the experience and other fell
lows have got the jobs. 1t has been al
expensive experience. taking money out
of the pockets of the people at home
and drawing some from workingmen in
other cities. 1t was when the latter
source of supply ran short, that the la-
Dor leaders were forced yesterday to
tell the men that they might, without
prejudice to their standing in the union,
accept such places as were still vacant
in the shops. Many operatives have left
town and found work in other cities.
They were lucky. The strike has been
a pitiful waste of energy and sub
stance, in vain attempt to compel the
manufacturers to deal with a commit
tee of the union instead of the opera
tives individually and personally.

TIE OPEN DOOR.

The complacent Indifference with
which the government regards the
Anglo Russian agreement may be ex-
planned by recent publication Of the
treasury bureau of statistics, relating
to trade in China. This pamphlet an
nounces a series of edicts by the Chi
nese government, guaranteeing to all
nations freedom of trade in the rich
valleys of the Yang-tse Kiang and
West rivers, allowing foreign vessels to
to ascend either river and permitting
foreigners to visit all parts of the en-
pire, taking machinery and goods with
them for purposes of trade. The Yang
tse and West river districts constitute
the most important sections of the Brit
ish sphere of influence under the agree
ment with Russia, as well as the most
valuable commercial and industrial
portion of the Chinese empire. The in
ference is therefore, that whatever
concessions may have been granted to
England by China, the open door is to
be maintained by the consent of the
government of each nation. In what
ever manner Russia may exploit the
northern part of the empire. it appears
that the district which is of most COM
mercial interest to the world is to be
left open to general competition. To
illustrate the value of this territory, it
is only necessary to say that two-thirds
Of the foreign commerce of China
passes through Shanghai, at the mouth
of the Yang-tse Kiang. while at the
mouth of the West river lie Canton and
Hong Kong, which, next to Shanghai,
are the most important ports.

The Missouri court of appeals has
sustained the decision of the lower
courts, that trusts cannot collect bills
or compel the payment of debts within
the state, inasmuch as trusts are lille
sal organizations under a recent state
law. To make matters worse, the leg
islature has just passed two bills TO aid
the attorney general in the prosecu-
ton of trusts. This decision has been
used to create some excitement in
speculation on Wall street, for it es-
tablishes an unpleasant precedent. 1t
shows that although Ohio has had no
marked success in fighting the trusts,
an effective way may be found, at least
within the boundaries of individual
states.

An extra session of congress is apt
in power but something is to be said
in favor of bringing the rational lesis-
lature together before the regular time
of meeting in December. There is much
work to be done, and the earlier the
questions of administration relating to
the newly acquired possessions are set
tied, the more opportunity will there
be for demonstrating the wisdom of the
republican policy. There is some force
in the remark that it would be unfor-
tunate to delay these matters till the
eve of the presidential campaign.

madness has infected the old world to
a remarkable extent. Subscriptions

result, but it is to be noted that $780,
100000 of this enormous sum comes

cessions promised in the Transvaal
have not yet materialized so far as her
majesty's government has been able to
observe, and it is time that something
was done. Dom Paul replies that the
Beers are the best judges of such mat
| ters, and if Britons cannot see the con-
cessions it is their own fault. Bis
marck is authority for the astuteness
of Paul Kruger's diplomacy, and
Majuba hill is witness to the straight
shooting of Boer marksmen. Neither
guns nor CAB have sufiiced to get from
| the South African republic what Eng
! land thinks her due. There have been
promises in abundance, but the fulfill
ment has been scant. How long will
this little bundle of Dutch patriotism,
obstinacy, ignorance and stagnation be
permitted to block political and indus
trial progress in South Africa? Is
Kruger destined to be the last of the
presidential line?
Bishop Potter having granted the re-

ington of New York have offered their
churches for the purpose, but the
| trouble is not yet ended. Bishop
Potter has great reputation
as a pacidcator, but it looks
as if he had tackled knotty
problem in endeavoring to ordain this
| Union seminary professor who was eX-
cluded from the Presbyterian Church
on charges of heresy. The ceremony of
ordination might be stopped by some
Jealous cleric, when the crucial ques-
ton is asked, whether there is any i'm
pediment to his ordination. The temp
er of the DIRECTORS warrants the asser-
ton that they would prefer heresy
trial to ordination. Yet there is a
strong broad church following to urge
| the bishop to perform the ceremony.

The announcement that Mayor Jones
of Toledo is to present himself as d
candidate for nomination as governor
of Ohio, merely confirms what mas
seemed almost certainty for several
weeks. There has been some doubt,
however, whether he would attempt an
Independent role or seek a republican
nomination. Perhaps his selection OF
the latter method is not wholly DIS
pleasing to Senator Hanna, who may
think he can dispose of the public own
ership and antitrust mayor of Toledo
more conveniently in convention than
in any other way. Should Mayor Jones
be defeated in the state convention. it
would be very unkind of him afterward
to stand as an Independent candidate.

If the Mazet investigation accom-
plishes nothing more than to set on
foot a movement to relieve the judges
from political assessment and to break
up the practice of buying and selling
New York judgships. it will be amply
justified. The traffic itself was well
enough understood, but the testimony
before the committee has emphasized
the fact in a manner to compel public
recognition. Hence the chamber of
commerce has adopted resolutions call
ing upon the legislature to enact a law
forbidding the assessment of judges.
This should obviously be amended so
as to include candidates for judgshIps
in the prohibition. Such law would
be better than making the judges ap-
pointive, as in Massachusetts,, because
even governors are apt to be under the
thumb of boss. who could then add
the judiciary to his list Of political
property holdings.
