protection to the Rapid Transit motor

the hardships which the motormen are
obliged to endure through the failure
OF the railroad companies to protect
their cars. 1t Is not only humane, but
would seem absolutely necessary for
the preservation of life, to say nothing
of comfort, If the cars were vestibuled

member Of the town council Of
Westham, a London suburb. Both
were elected by the British Trades

August. They represent nearly 2,OO0,-

been increased all around within the
last two years. Just before we left
London 10000 gas workers there got
an increase of two shillings to half

neers' lockout ended their wages have
gone up from Is pence to two shillings

things are dull, but the iron and ship
building trades are increasing rapidly
IN England. The last great strike we
had was the Welsh coal strike, and
the men were defeated. The hand of
the government was mainly respons-

FROM the New York World: One of
the stereotyped news items nowadays
is the appointment of a military gov
ernor for some division of our new ter
ritories. The division was established
by the president alone. The appoint
ment was made by the president
alone. And the governor is an absolute
despot, unchecked by any law, not an
swerable to anybody in the world but
the president. In respect to the new
territories and their 100000 of peo-
pie, the president has become an auto
crat, responsible TO no one. Not a
single one of his acts or of the acts of
his military suboniinates is subject to
review or examination outside OF his
