LABOR Is FOR PEACE.
Samuel Gompers Opposes the Policy
of ExpansiOn

BOSTON, March 2.-Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation of
Labor was the principal speaker at the
peace meeting held in fremont Temple
under the auspices of the Good Citizens
Peace society. Mr. Gompers referred TO
the position of organized labor on the
question of expansion, and said:
IF it was right for the founders Of this
government to fight for free government.
1t is not today right to fight against 1t.
We are today fighting against the only
Asiatic country that has ever made an
attempt to establish a republican form OF
government. and we are today seriously
vide up China, because 1t will help our
trade.
THE organizations of labor recognize
that a large standing army is a menace
to liberty and fomenter of trouble be
tween man and man. If peace cannot b9
secured in any other way the time Is
coming when federated labor will refuse
to make implements that are intended to
strike down their fellow men: when
shipbuilders will refuse to construct yes
sells of war; when sailors will refuse to
navigate ships of war, and when all
workers will refuse to contribute their
labors In any way for the slaughter of
their brethren, wherever they may De.
There is treaty being formulated by the
union workers of Great Britain and
America which will make peace neceS-
sary without the Intervention of govern
ments There has never been a confer
ence of workers that has not declared for

The taste of the Corean emperor Is

when he sees it. OF late his opportunities
for seeing American uniforms have not
been limited Doubtless he has seen Ad
miral Dewey and become stuck on him.
This would be natural. The American ad
miral has been visiting in that locality.
And II trade follows the flag, why not
style? Let the sub-emperor keep up the
pace. He is on the right track and need
never mind the frowns of China. Let
him put his whole suite into white fan-
nelS and russet shoes when the spring
time comes-if it ever does come, either
in Corea or the United States.

IS IT PROPER CASE FOR PARDON:

The senate, by a vote of 80 to IS, with
twelve absentees or non-voters. placed
upon the calendar for third reading the
Wilson bill, which. although couched in
general terms, is admittedly bill to au-
thorize the parole of the Youngers, which,
their full pardon. The Youngers were
tried at time when the law of the state
permitted escape from the death pen
atty by plea of guilty. Arraigned for
murder. the state would have had diff
Guilty in proving the charge against them,
although murder was committed by their
party but the feeling, not only locally
but over the state, was SO intense that
their trial on plea OF not guilty would
undoubtedly have resulted in their con-
viction and hanging, In spite of any
question of the suf1cency of proof. They
have served nearly twenty three years
of the life sentence imposed upon them.
They are now old men, and their conduct
during all the years of their imprison-
ment has been uniformly good.
As the question presents itself to US the
case is not one of extraordinary condi-
tions. 1t does not differ In It's essentials
from that of any ordinary ''lifer"
Have the demands of justice been suffi-
cientiy met? Has the punishment re-
ceived been adequate to the offense?
Has the conduct Of the prisoners been
such since confinement as to warrant a
belief that If released, they will not re-
sort to criminal practices? Will their
pardon or parole operate to encourage
crimirality? That there IS a strong oppo-
sition to the parole in the locality where
the crime was committed is no reason
against paroling them any more than
would be the opposition of the relatives
of the victim of any other less proni-
nent life convict. All these considera-
tions are for the pardoning or paroling
power. in this instance the legislature, to
take account of in reaching a conclu-
sion. The questions involved are those
which each individual senator and repre-
sentative should ask himself and make

GET TOGETHER.

The little by-play Of Mr.. Bryan and Mr..
Belmont of stepping on each others
Germs and then turning to their friends
for applause is a kind of comedy that
isn't funny, Each asserts that he is a
Jeffersonian Democrat and broadly hints
that the other is about rs far from 1t as
he can get without getting eff the earth.
Mr. Bryan refuses to attend Mr.. Bel
mont's banquet because he suspects that
the distinguished New -orker isn't a
thirty-third degree Jeffersonian Demo-
crat Mr.. Belmont retorts with spirit
that he never voted anything but DEM
ooratic ticket in his life and naively in
quires why that doesn't make him a
Democrat of the highest type. Right
here it becomes apparent that the Demo-
cratic party has no board of arbitration
10 which to refer its between-campaign
quarrels among members of the organi-
Zation as to the purity of their princi-
pies.
But what are these gentlemen driving
at? Do they desire the success of the
great party to which they profess to be-
lcng? And don't they Know they are ex-
citing the derisive laughter of the gal
leries without helping themselves or the
party in the slightest degree? Does either
| of the gentlemen remember at any time
of victory perching upon the flagstaff of
a house divided against itself? Were the
/ Democratic triumphs of 1913, 1856. 1884 and
1892 Won by fighting within the party
ranks or fighting the common enemy?
Nobody knows better than these gen
tlemen that the platform of the Demo-
cratic party for its mex, national cam
raign viii not be built until some fifteen
months hence The planks which it shall
contain Will be decided by the men who
go as delegates to the great national con-
Vention of the party. No Democrat, how
ever tried, true and loyal he may be,
knows what will so into that platform.
Not until the war with Spain was over
had the people chance to judge the Nc
hinley administration. Out of the con-
duct of affairs during the next twelve
months so will grow issues, among
them perhaps the great issue on which
the campaign will be conducted Then
why this internecine strife? The G 10 b e

Vention will construct a platform on
which all Democrats cav. stand shoulder

sNYDER's LAND TITLE BILL.

One Of the first measures introduced
this session of the legislature was SEN
ator McGowan's resolution asking the
opinion of the attorney general as to the
practicability Of adopting the so-called
Torrens land title system In this state,
having in view the provisions of our con-
stitution. Senator Snyder has INTRODUCED
bill that. it is believed, evades all Sc
rious objections from the legal stand
point. 1t is a modification Of the ILL
nois statute that has passed under the
scrutiny of the supreme court of that
state and has been In active operation
since the first of the year
The rock on which the first Illinois law
broke. the bestowal of judicial functions
upon registrars, is obviated in this bill
by making the courts of the state the
final adjudicators of the status of the
title. The registers of deed are made ex-
officio, registrars of title, whose work,
when the system becomes general will
! be but the performance of their present
duties very much simplifed. The dis
trict courts are authorized to appoint
ore or more examiners of titles in each
county, whose business it will be to make
a thorough and complete examination Of
all records affecting in any way the title
for the settlement of which application is
made. They are referees and upon their
report of the condition of the title the
/ court makes the proper order II defects
appear. if dormant interests come to the
surface, an action is brought ANALOGOUS
to our present action to quiet title All
parties appearing to have an interest are
/ brought in and the title definitely deter
/ mined Thereafter it can never be .oues-
toned. The past is buried. Henceforth
the only question that will ever be asked
will be: Who holds the certificate of
| title?
Every consideration, save those selfish
ones which we have heretofore noted.
Will be benefited by the passage of this
bill 1t is incredible to one who has made
the working of this system anything of q
study that. aside from the conveyancers,
! the aDstractors and Ire title insurers.
there should be moments question CT
its need and benefit. We trust that Min
nesota will take third place in the list
of states that have adopted this much
needed reform. 1t stood-well up towards
the head in the list OF states adopting
