SETTLING STRIKES.

President Mitchell of the United Mine Workers of America. who Is one of the best known labor lead- CTS in the country. hsheves that strike e4a be easily settled, If tax en in time and the proper course is pursued by employer and employe. In signed article in Saturdays Philadelphia Record on Trades Unions
 He contends that the issue be- tween employers and wage earners is simple. The former desire more profits for themselves or larger dividends for the stockholders whom they represent, while the latter seek more pay and better conditions of employment,
 President Mitchell acknowledges that the prospect of protracted struggle between some of the great combinations of capital and one or more of the great organiza- tions of labor is assuming a threat ening aspect, but does not believe that any of the cures suggested by theoretical dreamers will ever have any effect in the settlement of la bor disputes.
 The best way to settle q strike, President Mitchell says, is for both parties to take the public into their confidence. On this subject he says "In my judgment the one necessary force lacking in the ad. ludieation of questions in eontro. versy between organized labor and organized capital has been prop er avenue through winch the pub fe sentiment could be crystalized ana expressed. an 4n ardent. believer in the American people, and am confident that if given an opportunity to properly inform it. self upon the rights or wrongs in- volved= =ia pending dispute be tween capital and labor the pub lie Will invariably place itself, in the most emphatic manner. upon the side of the persons who are be ing wronged.

ONE of the strongest argu- ments, made by Democrats,
 against Populism in days gone
 by was that the Populists were too much inclined toward pa ternalism. But, now, in look ing over the Democratic record made by the legislatures and of feers for the past several years one must necessarily conclude that the spirit of paternaliSm IS no longer confined to the old time Populists, but has fastened it's clutches upon Democrats, as well. Personal liberty has been circumscribed by the statutes and the courts to such narrow limits that the Old-time Demo- crat would wake up and find himself in jail every morning of his life, for doing no more than he was taught that he had a right to do.
