The Lattimer Riot Claims.

In rejecting Austria's proposal for arbi-
tration for settling her claims for damages
arising out OF the killing OF some OF her
subjects during the riots at Lattimer. near
Hazleton, year before last, our Govern
ment is perfectly justified in holding
that tho facts present no case for ar
bitraton. The Hungarian subjects
were shot down by a Sheriffs posse which
was doing It's duty in checking and
subduing a dangerous violation Of the
laws of the land. These foreign residents
stood exactly on footing with our own
citizens in that respect. When Austria
originally made its complaint the matter
was referred to the Governor Of Pennsyl-
vania. The courts OF that State had already
taken it up in the due course Of law, and
the Sheriff had been indicted for murder in
firing on the mob. The jury acquitted him
of the charge, after an elaborate and fair
trial, and then the Governor declined to
consider unlawful an act which the jury had
virtually declared to be lawful.
The refusal, therefore, of our Government
to put to arbitration the claim OF Austria Is
based on the ground that the matter has
already been adjudcated here by law.
Aliens are entitled to protection in life and
property like citizens, but they are also
obliged to obey the laws in the same man
ncr as citizens, and are subject to the same
risks "a the latter for refusing to obey
them. In tho Tousig case, which was that
of native Of Austria domiciled here, but not
naturalized. Secretary MARCY declared that
"cvery nation, whenever its laws are vio-
lated by any one owing obedience to them,
whether he be n citizen or a stranger, has
right to inhict the penalties incurred
upon the transgressor." When q mob re-
fuses to dispense at the reading of the Riot
act, and the Sheriff Ia obliged to fire, the
nationality OF people In the mob Is no part
of the case.
Austria Is bound to see that her subjects
here receive fair treatment, but she must
also appreciate that it Is OF high impor-
lance to the stability OF all government
and OF society that the majesty OF the law
should be indicated. She should be salts
fed now to leave the Lattimer riot where
the American jury left 10

Natural Faith and Dogma.

To THE EDITOR OF THE sus-Str: While fully
in accord with the stand taken by THE sun that the
Christians faith primarily rests upon dogma, and
dogma alone, do not wholly agree with the state
ment that the believer must start out by accepting
Christ As the Son Of God" Convinced by the power

now more specifically 1t refers to move
ment which began In Germany In the sew
enteenth century was active there and In
England and the Netherlands in the eigh-
teenth century, and is now progressing
throughout tho Christian world. 1t allows
to the Scriptures no other authority than
they possess under the criticism OF the
reason-or, to use the words OF Bishop
POTTER, than they have as "a literature
OF recent years this controversy has been
intensified and extended by the populariza-
ton OF tho Higher Criticism" of the
Scriptures, as it Is called. The agent In
this country to that end was DR.. BRIGGS
more conspicuously, but he Is simply dis
cple Of German school OF criticism OF long
existence and has contributed nothing OF
original Importance to its methods or con-
illusions. Being, however, q theological
professor OF 80 strictly dogmatio Church
as the Presbyterian, and his theories and
methods contradcting radically the as
sumptions and conclusions Of the West
minister Confession, his teachings startled
the whole OF the so-called orthodox COM
munity and aroused widespread doubts
OF the Bible In very many minds which had
before accepted the dogma OF Its infallible
inspiration without a shadow Of question
ing. This influence he extended further
when he entered into the priesthood Of the
Episcopal Church, q Church which had been
always free from discussion or inquiry rs
to the established foundation Of its faith.
and had expressed rather pure devotional
sentiment.
Now, therefore, the question Of the au-
thority OF the Bible, OF the dogma OF In
SEPARATION. is engaging all religious thought,
and accordingly the very premise OF Chris
tian theology Is brought under dispute In
Christendom; and not merely among pro-
fessonal theologians and philosophers, but
also among the great body Of the laity,
to whom before no thought Of skepticism
regarding 1t had ever occurred. By the
side OF tho storm thus raised In the re-
ligous world the rationalistic controversy
OF the last century was Of slight account
and affected only q small area.

Agent CLARKE, who has charge OF tho
Governments interests in the Pribylov Isl
ands, does little more than reIterate q
familiar truth when he says that the pro-
visions Of the Paris tribunal in restriction
Of pelagic sealing are totally inadequate"
His visit to Seattle is too early for him to
throw much light on the present sealing
season, but he Is confident that seal life Is
not one-tenth as great as in former years"
The main point just now, it seems to us,
Is that nothing whatever has been done to
repair the inadequacy Of the Paris provi-
sions, and that nothing will be done that can
take effect during the present season. The
futility Of the Paris rules 10 protect tho
seal herd as 1t should be protected was
urged by our Government upon England
years ago. as soon as experience had
demonstrated the need. So strongly did
Congress feel upon the matter that the
House passed measure empowering
the Government to kill all the seals at
once, unless 1t could obtain some modifca-
ton OF a system which was making them
the victims OF the pelagio hunters. The
Senate did not concur in that policy, but 1t
agreed that something must be DONE At
last Great Britain consented to send COM
missioners to Behring Sea, and their re-
port, like that OF our own representatives,
led to the hope of a remedy for the existing
evils.
Then, however, came the deadlock in tho
Joint High Commission. which considered
the seals among other subjects, so that
now another season Of slaughter is sure.

he himself would be the last to have It other

All the same. It must be said that there never
was a moro popular or moro trusted man
that walked the bridge IN the roaring iorties
betwixt here and over yonder. That was tho
measure OF him held by the travelling public
and like was his esteem in the eyes OF his
Owners" He deserved it. He knew how to

Twice at sea she broke a shaft and no ono ever
