The True rlodus Operandi.

Y YNDER the auspices of the
National civic Federation, a
committee of Wcll-knOWn
labor leaders and large en-
ploycrs. with representation. also, Of
clcrgymcn, college presidents and Othcr
celebrated students of social problems,
has undertaken to consider how a ma
tional movement to bring about the
settlement of all labor troubles by ar
bitration. thus doing away with strikes
may best succeed. Very probably a
national conference, like the antitrust
conference held recently under the
same auspices. will be convened. at
which there will be Il large Interchange
of opinions leading to no particular
conclusions.
1t would be unfair To say that these
loudly heralded conferences do no good
They undoubtedly stimulate thinking
as well as give practice in debating
and there is always the possibility that
by means of them some ideas of actual
value may be evolved. But for prac.
teal effect, one good bill put before a
state legislature and fashioned into
workable shape in the course of ex-
pericncc would be worth "a dozen con-
fcrcnccs largely or wholly theoretical
in character. That is why those who
favor arbitration in lieu of destructive
strikes should get down to earth in
the vicinity of Harrisburg and see to
ii that The present session of the Penn
sylVania general assembly shall not
have expired without putting into local

Gofna 20 CanossA.

The saying going to Canossa" refers
to the humiliating pilgrimage made
by the Emperor Henry " to Italy In
the year 1877. Henry had objected to
the claims advanced by Gregory Hide
brand and, refusing ~ submit, was ex'
communicated by that pontiff. The
emperor at first laughed at the SEN
tence, but took a more serious view
when he found himself deserted even
by his personal attendants and resolved
on journey to Italy to make his peace
with the pope. The latter was then at
the Castle of Canossa, q fortress of the
Countess Matilda and situated In the
mountains of Modena. Thither the en-
peror fastened, but the pope refused
to see him save under the most degrad-
ing conditions.
The desperate situation Of Henry
compelled him to submit, and for three
days and nights, barefooted and bare
headed, clad only in a hair shirt, the
raiment of a penitent be waited at the
gate. At the end of this fearful pen
ance, which was undergone in the
month of January, he was admitted to
the papal presence, was absolved and
received his dominion as a gift from
the pope. The expression has ever
since been current as indicative of
abject submission on any terms I'm
posed by the conqueror.

a beautiful moonlight night, and from
where we sat upon the porch we look
ed out upon the broad bosom of the
Pacific ocean. The moons light made
a path across the waters, and In Its
center the Seal rocks lay like q black

they were and upon my informing him
said: Bah Jove, are those the Seal

This Is a true story about one OF the
mayors of Kansas City. He was mayor
when the incident occurred, not so very
many yearD ago. Two newspaper men,
both very good friends of the mayor,
were about TO leave town, and they
asked Mr. Mayor to help them cele-
Srate their departure.
1t was Il hot day In summer, and att
or an hour or two of convivial indul-
gence the mayor of Kansas City was
very much under the influence of liq-
uor. The newspaper men were feeling
jovial, but they were still able to walk
around. 1t finally became necessary to
do something for the mayor. Seeing
fruit wagon pass, one of the newspaper
men ran out and hailed the driver.
When he drew up to the curb, he was
asked whether or not he wanted to
make 81. He replied that he most GER
tainly did.
1t was then explained to him that
drunken man would be stretched out In
his wagon, face toward the sky. and
that he must drive through all the bust
ness streets of the town and then take
the man home.
Not knowing who his passenger was
to be, the driver consented, and the
Joke was carried out to the letter.
Through the streets of Kansas City the
mayor Of the town, stretched out on an
open wagon asleep, was driven, and
there was placard that announced the
cause Of the strange plight fastened
on the back of the wagon. The mayor
was not reelected. Chronicle.

Americas Influence Abroad.

One Of the chief reasons for the reduc-
ton In the Bank Of England's discount
rate Is the abundance OF gold In the
United States, which is at the service OF
any borrower, in England or anywhere
else, who offers the requisite security.
The United States Treasury has almost
800, 000, 900 OF gold 10 addition to its
regular $3.50, 900, 900 redemption fund.
The banks OF the United States are we'll
supplied with the metal. Somewhere In
the neighborhood of $70,000,000 from
the gold mines Of the United States will
allowance for the gold that is used In
the arts. England as we'll as the rest of
the world, knows all these things.
America, In fact, has been furnishing
gold to England, Germany, Russia and
several other countries In large amounts
In the past twelve months.
America is the great supply center for
the worlds needs In cash at this time.
The fact that this country has more
gold on hand than 1t can make profitable
use of is understood In London, Paris,
Berlin, st. Petersburg and the rest OF
the great capitals. Whenever these GEN.
tiers want money which they are either
unable or unwilling to obtain at home
they know they can get 1t here. This
fact has steady effect on the worlds
money markets. Ii is fact which has
much potency. Here is one of the
reasons why the Bank of England's dis
count rate has just been reduced, when
the general expectation In England was
that 1t would either remain stationary or
be advanced.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.
