me language imputed to the German
emperor in addressing the latest division
OF troops embarking for China differs
In no substantial way from that used by
him on former occasion. 1t is in each
case the talk Of the war lord - It will
be accounted foolish or greatly significant
as the reader Of it chooses to regard the
young emperor.
The murder Of Baron Won Ketteler was
concededly most brutal outrage on the
German nation. Nothing short Of the
most complete reparation would in any
event meet the requirements of such e.
situation. But. If the murder of the Ger
man minister was accomplished, as It
appears at this time to have been accom-
plished, by a Chinese mob, against the
best that Chinese imperial or local au-
thority could do to prevent It, 1t is diff
cult to understand the need Of all the
talk imputed to the emperor about quar-
ter and killing and raising the German
flag over the walls of Pekin.
1t is plain to the simplest understanding
that our knowledge of events In China Is
limited and controlled by International
necessities, and that most of the intelii-
gence that reaches us Of those events is
colored by one or other Of the vast in
terests which are at this moment playing
SO tremendous game of diplomacy as
that now in progress In the Orient
There is doubtless much more behind
the speech of the German emperor than
appears in the vapid and bellicese terms
In which 1t is couched. Germany has
the land hunger as heavily on her as
any nation in Europe. She has been
belated in her advances on Chinese terri
tory. The emperor is evidently intent
on getting into the game In China as ex-
tensively as the other nations. His loud
talk may mean much or 1t may mean
little. All will depend on what is done
or sought to be done to give expression
in acts to the.plain threats of that speech,
and on the disposition shown by the other
nations toward the possible fulfllment
of those threats.
There has been no declaration Of war
made by Germany against China IN
der ordinary circumstances the use of
such language as that imputed to the
emperor would be equivalent to such a
declaration Under the peculiar circum-
stances prevailing in this case, however,
the speech of the German ruler may be
accepted as merely another indication Of
how little the world Is justified IN ac-
cepttag the accounts which prevail Of
events now in progress in China at their
surface value.

CHANGES IN LIFE INSURANCE

All people are obliged to eat. be clothed
ana housed. Yet all are not nurtured bv
the same food, while their clothing and
MONIES differ according to temperament
circumstances and desire Even in illness
the same remedies are not found effica-
clous for those suffering from almost
ldenucal maladies.r In other words. peo-
pie differ, and what is adapted to one
may not be to another
Out of this requirement for diversity
has grown the difference in life insur-
ance policies. They originally differed
only In amount and in the graded pre-
MUM charge for advancing years but
now there are varieties adapted to all
sorts and conditions, of men, The amount
issued by each standard company has
been increased until with many of the
organizations it is now large enough to
meet the wants of the millionaire, while
differences in the method and time Of
settlement, in CONVENIENCE to the policy
holder of premium payment, Hberality Of
choice and action to him, and other i'm
portant details, there are as many ways
of being well insured as human variable
ity could ask.
Through all this has been preserved
the grand fundamental function of life
insurance. protection to the family, and

KING HUMBERTvs MURDER.

Another victim has fallen at the order
of the political lunaHcs who are known
to the world as anarchists. King Hum
bert, like the empress Of Austria, had
never been in any way associated in the
public mind with the hardships and cru
elites which have come to the common
people through the monarchieaI system
Yet they, for no apparent reason, and
without any apparent direction, have
been chosen as the two latest victims of
the anarchist mania for blood
good and devoted woman will b,
brought to grief in the loss of her hus-
band; the children of King Humbert will
be made to mourn beloved father, ard
friends and subjects alike will be deeply
grieved and shocked at the awful trag-
edy. And to what end? No good can
come to anyone. Evil alone can follow
the death of the ruler of the Italian peo-
pie.
1t is true that the italian nation has
not been as well or as wisely governed
as it should be. But the failure in this
regard was the fault and failure of a
system, not of the man. The subjects of
King Humbert were not the victims Of
political excitement. Absolute quiet pre-
vailed, and there was no indication what
ever of popular dissatisfaction. The bullet

that the anarchist is merely a congenital

THE PUBLIC THE yIor,m

An incident which happened recently
in the progress of the war which now
prevails between employers and employees
in the building trades in Chicago is quite
instructive in its way. The building
trades strike. or lockout, whichever 1t
may be regarded. has several times been
on the point of amicable adjustment.
Recently, however, 1t has resolved itself
into fight between organizations, ana
each side seems determined that in the
effectuation Of its purpose Industrial op-
erations in all trades must come to an
end. If those purposes can be accom-
plished In no other way.
The incident mentioned arose during
meeting of a committee of the Chi
cago board of education. The carpenters
employees Of the board had asked for a
raise in wages Of seven and one-half
cents day. The board was disposed to
grant the raise; but a committee of en-
ploying carpenters appeared before the
committee and most strenuously opposed
the granting of the raise. AT once trouble
arose, and charges and countercharges
were made, and the meeting of the COM
mittee became much more of an excited
gathering of local politicians quarreiing
over spoils than a gathering of RESPONSE
bic public officials endeavoring to dis
charge the public business according to
their understanding of the needs of that
service.
The plan adopted In meeting the diff
Guilty was the usual one It was post
poned; and now all the political influences
that either side can bring to bear will be
availed OF to have its views prevail.
While the school committee is thus tri-
fling with a serious situation the fight
goes on. and the latest announcement is
made that unless the advance is made
strike will be inaugurated among the
carpenters employed by the school board.
1t looks now as if nothing short of the
sheer exhaustion of either one side or.
the other would suffice to bring the pre-
vailing contest to a close. All efforts at
adjustment have failed. The city has
suffered IN all its commercial and indus
trial interests. Building has practically
come to an end. The contending inter-
ests simply regard the contest as one
which concerns them alone They are
engaged in a struggle to get the best Of
each other, just as two INSCRIPTIONS
and bitter competitors in business might
be. And while each is endeavoring to
force the other into the necessary con-
cessions. both assume. and assume right
ly, that the entire community must pa
tiently await the outcome, and suffer
such discomfort or loss as 1t may in the
interval.
Should the committee of the board of
education decide to refuse the advance
asked by the employees another strike will
be inaugurated. and the city itself will be
involved in the labor melee which is in
progress. Should it decide to grant the
raise then the declaration will be made
that it yielded to the threat of strike
and to the influences of politics. 1t mat
tiers little what the board of education
may do. It has placed itself in false
position. The moment that 1t engaged
