THE capture of the cigar smugglers
by Inspector Bloom was good piece
of work. Smuggling is not only an
offence against the laws of the United
States, but it is morally wrong mas
much as the practice operates directly
against the interests of every in
dividual:and every merchant who COM
plies with the law. A good many peo-
pie seem to think that it lis mo crime
to cheat the government" Looked at
from that standpoint the practice of
smuggling wonld not in itself seem
morally wrong to a great many people
who consider themselves to have pref
ty tender consciences in regard to most
things. Nevertheless, when it Is con-

TODAY we print an account OF the
trouble at Wardner, Idaho, which has
resulted in some of the most horrible
outrages that have ever been perpetra,
ted in the name of Union Labor. Such
deeds as these, like some OF
those accompanying the great railroad
strike in 1894, set the cause of organic
ed labor back many steps, and turn the
very people whose assistance is needed
in the fight, against the movemen,
which countenapces such crimes.
Economic differences are no longer to
be settled in this country by murder
and arson. Let the lesson be learned
now.

IT would seem to an observer on this
side the water as if the capture or death
of Aguinsldo would help more than
age in the Philippines. 1t is now known
that Aguinaldo is the head of but one
of the warning tribes, and while he has
. certain personal following never
theless he cannot be consideredas pro-
missing ruler for the islands under any
circumstances. He Is mischief breed
er, and his.motives are far from being
sold out his cause would seem to be
enough to degrade him in the eyes Of
any true lover of liberty. Yet with all
Agui paldo's faults he cannot be blam-
ed personally as would an American in
the same circumstances. He comes OF
an inferior race, and he has q long
score by blood and Inheritance
to settle with the white man. He is
working dead against the higher in
terests of his own people, but he does
not see it owing to the dulled moral
instinct and cloudy perception to
which he is heir. The white peo-
pie, the Americans, must show him |
the uselessness of longer continuing
the struggle against sthe inevitable,
and 1t may require the severest mes-
sures before this is accomplished. The
Brooklyn Eagle. in speaking of the
suggestion that he be allowed to rule
the islandssunder protectorate, gives
the following excellent characterize
tion of him: AS to his rulership of
the islands, that is out Of the question.
He has shown himself cruel, treache-
rous, arrogant. dictatorial, man fond
of display and adulation, man who
could not be trusted with dollar of
another's money, a man who would sell
q cause, and take up a cause for the
sake of selling it. He has every pos
sible qualification that fits him to be
governed, and not one, except craft,
that makes him possible as COVER

and their treatment usually of a kind
to be found in few other occupations open
to women. These are the advantages OF
the work to those who have to make
q living out of 1t. The number of women
who have gone into It, with no thought
of making their bread and butter by
means of the training they will acquire,
Is larger than one can find In any other
line of woman's work. The kindergarten
possibly has a similar attraction for Wo~
men who for one reason or another want
to have their time occupied. Nursing as
a means of livelihood and as method
of diversion Is a recognized branch Of wo-
mans work. Now new phase OF TINS
calling has been discovered, fortunately
In England. Thirty women of position,
with no financial necessity for taking the
stem applied to a London hospital for
places In the wards. The fact became
known and there was much discussion,
after the English fashion, as TO the object
of these women I'm undertaking a work
which was certain to be arduous ana
was not necessary 10 them in any way.
The consensus of opinion was that they
wanted husbands. found themselves I'M
likely TO get them In their own set, and
had adopted this means OF broadening
their horizon. This view satisfied some,
but was Indignantly denied by one wo-
man who was the first to attribute TO
women the desire to become nurses to this
| rather vague itiHphf
There are" she wrote, women OF
! birth and education, who are neither fast
| nor keen on marriage, who yet desire TO
, have some knowledge of the people
around them. BY les convenances,' they
are restricted to acquaintance with tho
immediate circle to which they belong.
! The hospital ward gives them some no.
| ton of what the battle OF life Is like;
the difference OF dispositions and temper
aments; the strength of one type, the lack
of vim of another, the coarseness of a
| third"
This explanation will not satisfy persons
familiar with the hardships Of the nurses
novitiate. Merely the desire to see life
would never prove incentive enough for
tn P-ivations that later they have to I'M
d%Tso. Women TO whom it was not a ne
| cessity have gone through these hard
ships. They usually had something to
forget and were plunging into one life to
forget another. The work of a hospital
nurse gives compensation and independ-
ence to those compelled to take up the
work, and is accordingly interesting to
some persons who do not have TO practice
It, ii throws women into contact with
the world and broadens their sphere. 1t
does in that way increase the chances Of
marriage for the average woman Of small
means. But there were never any here.
even IL there are In England, who took
up the work merely for the opportunity
it gave TO study human nature.
