through the kindness of MIR. La Chance,
who dropped the throw, Coughlin flied to
Harvey. DUNCAN and Foster were both

both scored on Coughlin's hit to centre

high hopes of putting it all over the
bluecoats, but after they had chased the

they decided that they would do nothing
of the kind. but would be content to re-
turn to their homes with a defeat chalk
ed against up them. The Marines more

PrOxress of PacificatiOn.

Every few days Gen. Macarthur reports
another surrender of Filipino insurgents
In almost every case the achievement
means the withdrawal of some well-known
leader and from fifty to two hundred men
with rifles from the field. The totals Of
these accretions to the side of peace are
now mounting to a considerable figure
and the natural inference is that unless
the number of the men in Aguinado's vari-
Gus armies has been greatly underesti-
mated the complete disappearance of this
force will follow in short time. These
surrenders have taken place in other
islands than Luzon, and In several cases
lately the military governor has reported
that with them has come the end of armed
Instruction in those particular islands.
With the establishment of civil govern
ment proceeding rapidly throughout the
archipelago and with the armed men sub
hitting to the American authority In large
numbers the prospect for peace is steadily
becoming brighter

The Coal Strike Outlook,

The chances of a general strike in the
coal region seem to be dwindling. AS the
days pass the miners have opportunity to
study the situation. The leaders have ma
terially modified their utterances of few
days ago, when they were vehemently de-
claring that the only alternatives were rec
ognition of the general union and a strike
The firm stand of the operators not to en-
gage in a conference with the miners has
had deterring effect upon the hot heads,
who are able now to see the sorry conse-
quences of a strike without general public
sympathy. A week from today the tenn
pOrary agreement of last autumn expires,
and the new year agreement proposed by
the operators will go into effect. In the
interim the situation is likely to develop
rapidly and, as the case stands now, In
the direction of a peaceful adjustment on
the basis of an extension of the September
agreement.

RuSsia'S Embarrassment at Home

The extreme gravity of the situation in
Russia is shown by the fact that the minis
terial advisers of the car, at the confer
ence held Saturday. decided not to enforce
the obnoxious law drafting recalcitrant
students into the army, and also to revise
the university statutes. This action in
dictates that the government is alarmed by
the rapid spread of reactionary sentiment
and the repeated outbreak of violence. The
decision not to repeal the unpopular law
does not weaken the force of the conces-
sion to the student mob contained in the
determination to abstain from it's imme-
date application. The state is clearly hold
ing out an olive branch, which Is not like
the Russia of old. The news from the
capital continues to be fragInentary and
unsatisfactory. Although there was a
bloody clash Saturday between workmen
and Cossacks the announcement is reduced
To the bare fact without details. The CEN
sorship is not only strict but the police ex-
ercise a jealous supervision over the sit
uatiOn, preventing investigation by cor
Respondents. A noteworthy change has
come over the disturbances. Whereas at
the outset the troubles were caused prin-
cipally by students, m their demonstra-
lions against the impressment law, the
chief figures in the street riots are the
workingmen. who are voicing the sup
pressed cry OF evil conditions, long hours
and bad pay. This Is the real danger in
Russia today. The student body is nor
mally agitated. 1t contains the advanced
thinkers. the intellectual radicals, the fol-
lowers of Tolstoi and the as yet unexiIed
devotees OF the more pronounced nihilistic
cult The police usually know just where
to place these possible agitators But the
workmen are ordinarily quiet and IL now
they have been encoura ged to rise In open
demonstration it is a sign that the social
istiC propaganda has made headway
among them and that the fear of the gov
eminent has no longer the usual repres-
sive influence among this class. combi-
nation of the thinking and the unthinking
classes In agitation, or perhaps open re-
belliOn. against the government would
prove serious proposition for Russia to
face with all her intricate foreign respon-
sibilities pressing hard upon her at the

The Conference In Politics.

In politics the conference Is the thing.
1t accomplshes wonders See what it has
done in New York affairs within fort
night. There was the Sanger appointment,
which threatened woes unnumbered to the
President, the Secretary of War, and the
whole republican organization of New
York conference smoothed out every
wrinkle. and Colonel Sanger is in office
with the good will of everybody. One
would not know that the appointment when
first announced was supposed to be loaded
with the fuse lighted.
Then came the Platt and Odell clash
which gave every promise of wrecking
things In the empire state. Tammany's
striped sides were shaking with delight. 1t
was thought to be a case OF mutiny on
the part of a creature against his creator
Everybody wondered. Would the gov
ernor hold out? If he did. would not the
senator crush him? Was backdown on
the part of either possible? Mr.. Plat. it
was pointed out, was a very firm master.
He was accustomed to giving orders and
to having them obeyed He would now, it
was predicted, proceed to discipline the
governor, and set his will aside. Instead of
that conference has been held, and the
difficulty. for the time at least, has been
adjusted. The governor did not back
down. The senator did not apply the
discipline. The result is the party remains
In good shape for the fall campaign, and
Tammany is not as much amused as it
was
Now, why may not this spirit extend to
the municipal campaign which is taking
shape? The disgust with Tammany is
deep-seated and widespread. 1t is only
question of uniting the opposition to Tam
many government to carry the election.
But that was the only question when Van
Wyck was elected mayor. Had the friends
of law and order held together in that
campaign Tammany would have been rout-
ed They separated, however, and Tam
many walked in easily between the two
decent but foolish factions After the bat
tie it was plain enough that conference,
held In spirit of sober mindedness and
Cancellation, would have demonstrated the
value of union and saved the day
There will be no excuse for anybody If
that blunder is repeated this year. The
situation at this early day is clear enough.
There are votes enough TO defeat Tam
many If they can be polled for one man.
That he should be capable and a great
man it IS unnecessary to declare. But that
he should be selected with an eye to vote
getting is something that all should con-
slider and that only a conference can wisely
decide. Why not a conference, then and
especially as two conferences about other
matters have just resulted so advan-
tageously to the public interests?

MASSACHUSETTS AND MARYLAND.
A Contrast Between Their Methods of
Suffrage Restriction.

Contrast Between Their Methods of
Suffrage Restriction.
From the Baltimore News
Could there be a contrast more striking
than that between the course of the Know
Nothings of Massachusetts forty-fiye wears
ago and that of the democrats of Mary
land today? The Know-Nothings went
through all the requirements of their state
constitution in order to effect the change
they desired. They did not spring an extra
session upon the people; nor did they seek
to accomplish by trick what they dared
not, attempt openly. They passed their
proposal for an amendment of the state
constitution in two successive regular ses-
sions of the legislature, with a new cleo
ton Of the legislature intervening; and
they then obtained the peoples approval
Of the change. Nor Is this all. Though
the Sun IS careful not to mention it, the
amendment secured every person already
possessing the elective franchise In the
continuance of his right; it was only to
future voters that the illiteracy disfran-
chiSement was to apply. This alone would
make the Massachusetts action and the
extra-session doings in Maryland as diff
ferent as night from day Would John
waiter Smith or Arthur z. German care
pin for an act of disfranchisement which
would not affect a single voter who Dos
sesses the franchise today? The only eff
feet of the Suns comparison is to show
that even the Know-Nothings of Massa-
chusetts acted in this great matter of
the suffrage like angels of light in COM
parison with the present representa- ves
of the democratic party Of Maryland. The
Massachusetts, Know-Nothings framed an
honest amendment expressly disfranchis-
ing illiterates; the Maryland democrats
"euchre' them by a trick; the amendment
OF the Massachusetts, democrats was passed

proved by the people; the Maryland statute
