1t is announced that at least one and
perhaps two OF the Holland submarine
boats, authorized by the naval appropri-
alton law. will be built on the Pacific
Coast Those who have examined into
the merits of this new type of naval
vessel are said to have declared that
Puget sound would be an ideal place
for the operation of this modern craft.
Among them is Rear Admiral HIGH
born. chief naval constructor of the
United States navy. who has visited
Seattle recently. He has an article In
the Engineering Magazine for June
which deals with the submarine boat
and shows that fourteen years ago the
fertilization board emphasized the ne
cessity of an economical mobile defense
OF the coast. but were not prepared TO
say that the subma rine boat at that
stage OF development was the best thing
for defensive purposes that could be
obtained
Since the fertilization board made its
report more attention has been given

are acceptable because any predeter-
mined direction can be held and the
course of any vessel can be followed in

perfectly satisfactory. Availability IS
unsatisfactory on account OF the

We do not think much Of the recent
conduct OF the American Steel and Wire
Company. and have expressed our opin-
ion of the performance Of Mr.. Gates in
TO measured terms. But the manage
ment of the concern seem able to take
a hint II they have. indeed, prepared
for the announced departure, they are
moving forward in the line that seems
marked out inevitably for future in
dustry. Let il be understood that we
neither approve nor condemn. Indus
trial evolution Is not governed by in
dividual wishes, and the concentration
OF capital and effort is independent OF
any mans opinion. No one doubts that
the present tendency is toward concen-
tration No one supposes that the ten
dency is exhausted. And all the prob
abilities point toward a further con-
solidation that will diminish the num-
Der Of branches Of industry, Just as the
trusts have diminished the number of
establishments; that will place more and
more under a single management all the
processes that lead from the production
Of the crude raw material to the An
ished article Of commerce.
From one point OF view. the change
may be regarded with growing equan-
unity. Public opinion Is fairly united
upon the general proposition that the
immense corporations called trusts
must be subjected TO Legislative super
vision and regulation They cannot be
prohibited. They must and will be con-
trolled The fewer the number the
EASIER will that subordination become
1t is certainly simpler to deal by law
with a steel and wire trust than with
it and a steel billet trust and a coal
trust and coke trust and half dozen
others 1t is easier to regulate one than
many. A serious part, indeed, OF the
problem presented by the trusts IL their
number and diversity. We cannot ex-
pect to turn backward the tendency to-
ward the concentration Of capital and
industry. 1t is not unreasonable to be-
heve that this very tendency. uniting
the many into the one, substituting a
solid planet for gaseous nebula, will
simplify and facilitate the exercise OF
that wholesome control and regulation
which the state Is TO exercise.

amendment comforting the right Of suf-
| frage on women has been defeated by
| the voters OF oregon. Ordinarily this
would settle any issue permanently;
but this one will probably bob up Sc
renely in the next legislature. Nothing
is so persistent as sentimentalism, and
II seems to enjoy nothing so much as
butting Its head against the immovable
wall of fact.
There are many reasons why the agi-
tation for woman suffrage has ceased

OF agitators whose horizon II flls and
obscures. They all rest on clearer
there never was a case for woman sut-
frage that would bear debate. But the
courtesy OF men would have yielded
the point long ago had not these prae-
teal considerations come to the rescue.
one of them Is that woman suffrage
In practice does none Of the things that
are claimed for It. 1t does not purify
politics" elevate the ballot" put an
end to corruption a. the polls or make
legislation any different from what 1t
was before. 1t has done none OF these
things in Colorado or Utah. On the
contrary, woman suffrage in one state

was excluded absolutely by the infu-
ence of women In other states who
have not the ballot and do not want
II One fact such as this IL worth a
mountain OF theory.
Unanswerable, however, as the ar
guments against the innovation are,
both from the natural and necessary
division of the worlds work, from the
analysis OF government that rests ul-
timately upon force. from physical con-
ditions and from the consideration that
the elective franchise does not confer
q privilege but imposes most onerous
duty upon those who possess II, the
conclusive fact that makes II dead is
sue Is that the women themselves do
not want 1t. II they did. right or
wrong, men would give 1t to them. But
their intelligence is too keen. their in
stincts too true. to permit them TO make
the demand.
Not all the appeals to sex pride or
prejudice, not all the imagined extern
