the average methods Of striking organiza-
ton tend to prevent the normal mainte-
nance of the traffic by outside labor. This
view is hardly just either to the company
or to the community. 1t is not to be ex-
pected that the city should be deprived of
it's transportation facilities because of a
difference between the company and its
men. 1t is not equitable to invoke public
sentiment for or against the position of the
company or the men by giving so positive
an object lesson of the meaning of the
strike. Herein lies the serious responsible
ity of the labor union and the labor leader.
Frequently such affairs could be prevented
by the application of busness-hke manage
ment in the earlier stages. That is where
the state arbitration board should find it's
chief function. rather than in the acute
stages of the dispute when the tempers Of
both sides are reused and logged deter
mination takes the place of dispassionate
reasoning. The principal sufferer in such
a controversy as the present is the unof-
Tending public.

The New French Premier.

1t is reassuring to learn from the Paris
dispatches that NJ. Poincare, the new
French premier, will himself take the war
portfolio in the ministry he is now forming
His administration will be tested by its
handling of the Dreyfus case and it's collat
eral scandals. Upon the war minister will
fall the chief burden of responsibility and
credit or blame according as the results ap-
proach the standard of absolute Justice.
For a time, therefore, the war portfolio
will contain Frances most important docu-
ments As rule the premier in France
assumes charge of the foreign relations,
for by custom and tradition that office is
regarded as carrying the greatest honor
and responsibility. out Frances foreign
relations are of slight moment at present
compared with her domestic affairs She
can well afford to let international matters
drift along in their present groove for few
months, while she attacks the domestic
problem. NJ. Poincare is considered TO he
one of the most conscientious statesmen in
french public life today. He brings to his
dlfhcult task high prestige as an individ-
ual, politician, a student and a patriot
he accepts office reluctantly knowing the
dangers of defeat and humiliation and real
izing the Importance of the issue about to
be tried. But he can not fail TO feel
strengthened by President Loubet's atti-
tude of determination to settle this misera-
BILE business once and for all if it REQUIRES
the whole power of the French republic to
accomplish that end. NJ. Lolibet's appeal
to the new premier to accept the charge
gave high value to the executive choice.
AT the head of the war office M. Pofncare
can personally superintend the process of
retrial and the incidental adjustments
which will inevitably follow revision. He
has an opportunity such as falls to few
men to make great name as the friend of
truth and justice and of France.

MIR. Reid Mt Oxford.

In his address at Oxford. Ohio, yesterday
Mr.. Whitelaw Reid expressed the opinion
that this government has itself to thank
for the gravest of the difficulties it is now
encountering in the Philippines. He dates
our responsibilities in the archipelago from
the signing of the peace treaty with Spain.
and asserts that we should at once have
prepared against the very step which Agui-
naldo. encouraged by our delay, at later
day was emboldened to take. He declares
that we had ample warning as to both the
character and probable intentions of the
Filipinos, but that We neglected It and
drifted with the present unhappy results.
We permitted Aguinaldo to perfect his
plans, organize his forces, and make ready
generally to take the field against US.
Mr. Reid, by virtue of his service
member of the peace commission, speaks
with good deal of information and with
unquestioned sincerity. Still 1t is difficult
to understand what aggressive or more
positive course this government could have
pursued prior to the day that Aguinaldo
unmasked. 1t was one thing to distrust
him and to keep an eye on him. That was
done. But his activities could not have
been prevented short of making him actual
ly a prisoner. And so far from making him
prisoner, we kept him and his men at
arms length outside of Manila for the bet
ter protection of the city. He improved the
opportunity to get himself into fighting
shape, and when his confidence was at
meridian he struck
The average judgment will continue to lay
the blame for our troubles at the doors of
those senators who held up the peace treaty
in an effort to defeat it. They encouraged
Aguinaldo and made our own path the more
difficult. While they were thus employed,
and were boasting of a f1attering assurance
or ultimate success, the hands of the adj
ministration were almost tied. For had
any aggressive and advanced move been
made, and had the treaty then been re-
jected, this government, temporarily at
least, would have been placed in a very en-
barrassng situation.
Mr. Reid's address in the main is an I'M
usually strong and able paper. No man, so
far. has put the case of American oppor-
tunity and duty more clearly and convinc-
ingly, or upon a higher plane.

cations around to the idea Of meeting in
Washington. Sometimes there is sharp
competition, for the other cities have been
aroused by the regularity with which Wash
ington captures the decisions and now and
then the local delegates are put to their
best endeavors to gain their end. But as a
rule the most formidable factor in opposi-
ton is that suggested by geographical con-
siderations, which sometimes deprive the
capital of choice dates which naturally
would fall to its share. The Shriners were
sure to come again after their test of the
qualities of Washington as a host city ten
years ago.

The Cleveland Strike.

1t is deeply to be regretted that the street
car strike in Cleveland should have devel-
oped rioting. 1t ought always to be pos
sible TO settle the differences between en-
pIoyers and emplnyes without recourse to
force. The state provides the machinery for
arbitraung these issues. In Cleveland the
state arbitration board has been actively
at work to effect a compromise between the
two sides. but without results. Both the
company and the men are stubbornly in
s.sting upon their entire contention. In this
case the matter at issue is one of principle
rather than of condition. The men de-
mand the recognition of their union by the
company. which the company refuses to
grant There is some question as to the
regulations under which the men work, but
that is OF minor importance The company
declares that IT will not in any way ac-
knowledge the existence of the union as a
factor in the management of the road.
while II does not stipu,ate that the en-
ployss shall not belong to the organization.
The men. on the contrary assert that the
company, while not avowedly objecting to
the union, in fact discriminates against
those men who belong to it, and they insist
upon an unqualified agreement to recognize
the union as representative of the EMPLOYEES
In all future conflicts.
Such a question can only be settled nv
the yielding of one or the other of the par
ties. for there Is practically no ground for
compromise on such a principle. The COM

Untrustworthy Correspondents.
From the Kansas City Star


Newspapers which print letters purport-
ing to come from soldiers in the Philippines
telling stories of bloody and wanton deeds
by the American troops show a lack of
regard for public intelligence. A Kansas
soldier wrote home on the day after the
first battle at Manila that General MacAr-
thur and General King were killed, and
that the 14th United States Infantry had
been annihilated, Other soldiers have writ
ten what they believed to be true, but not
being in the position to know or trained to
discriminate between rumors and facts,
their opinions are worthless. Other senSa-
tional letters which have been printed
simply show that the writer's were liars
and loafers and are unfit to wear their
country's uniform. Great care is exercised
as a rule in giving publicity to the news
OF men and affairs at home in order to avoid
libel. Why this rule should be forgotten
when considering the unsupported state
ments of inexperienced correspondents at
the scene of war is astonishing, to. say the
least.
