Crowder-Then you still think you

Crowder-Then you still think yor
are right?
Rice-Yes, sir; I know I am.
Crowded. am sorry for you, youns
man; II you still persist in saying you
are right, my orders are from General
Macarthur to deport you.
Rice--lf you will give me fair trial
in court can prove that am right.
Crowder-Under martial law such
characters as you receive no trial. We
have not the time.
Rice-Can l see the evidence in the
investigation which you claim proves
my charges false?
Crowder-No; the investigation was
placed in competent hands and does
not need your approval. Your STATE
ments have been proved to our salts
faction to be without foundation, and
yoN will be deported as an incendiary
character and menace to the military
situation. You are too young to let
go on slandering men Of honesty and
capability. and l consider your charac-
ter as having fallen to it's lowest level.
In writing and publishing such articles
you endanger the foundation of our
military system. Such conduct as this
| consider equal to traitorism.
Rice-So far as being traitor,
have served my country in the field for
over year and never had my love
of country so much: as questioned,
while you have never been under fire
and never expect to be, and you dare
question my patriotism! l have more
patriotism to the square inch than you
have in your whole carcass.
Crowder-Be careful; a few more
words and will put you in Billibid
(the jail)!
The order of deportation was then
issued, but before the ship sailed
Colonel Crowder gave the culprit an
other chance, in this fashion:
Crowder-The military governor
(MacArthur) directs me to ask you
that if your conduct is satisfactory up
to the time of your deportation and he
sees fit to remit your sentenee, will
you promise that in the future you
will never write articles Of similar
character against any officer of the
Rice-No. sir. hold the right to
publish anything, anywhere, whenever
have proof of my statements.
Crowder-Your case is hopeless.
Thereupon Rice was put into soli-
tary confinement, where he stayed I'M
til the ship was ready to take him
away.
The subsequent proceedings seen to
show that immunity from criticism Is
not just what is needed to promote
healthy administration. Publicity is
sven more important among Sub
ects' than among citizens.

There the captain of the port, when
his dignity was offended by two Gu

INTELLIGENT FRANCE
NO TROUBLE THERE OVER
LABOR AND WAGES.
The Various Revolutions Have Taught
tho Piutocrats q Wholesome Lesson
Injustico to Labor Would Bo Re-
sented with the Sword.

The employees on the Paris under
ground railroad had strike and have
settled their strike
The terms of the settlement amaze
the outside world. Those terms are
especially amazing to the American
and well they may be.
The employees of the underground
railroad in Paris are government en-
ployes.
Their strike Inconvenience the pub
lie and even the radical French people
were annoyed with the strikers.
In other European countries and in
this country, as the news reports very
truly say, the strike of those govern
ment employees would have been dealt
with very summarily. Three engines
of civilization would have been
brought into play effectively.
First, the police; second, the caval-
ry; third, Calling guns
But the police, the cavalry and Cat
ling guns were tried on the French
people long ago and that, little matter
was fought out and settled. The men
who govern France know that at a
certain stage in the proceedings
courageous people will not stand Cat
ling guns, cavalry or police. They
have found out in France that the way
to deal with striking workmen is just
the way the government official would
like to be dealt with himself if he were
striking workman instead of a we'll
paid public officer.
The striking men complained that
their days work was too long and
their pay too small The pay was in
creased and the day was shortened
which was perfectly right.
Each employe is now allowed one
day off in seven, and ten days vaca-
tion every year with full pay-which is
perfectly right
The young men employed on the
road are compelled to do twenty days
work in the army each year. Their
wages are paid while they are doing
this compulsory military work-which
is perfectly right.
If man is i'll he gets his pay Is long
as he is i'll up to three. hundred and
sixty-five days, and the company in
whose service he has become I'll pays
his Doctors bill, his drug store bill and
any extra expenses nvolved-which |
is perfectly just and fair.
No striker is to be dismissed because |
of having taken part in the strike. A
benefit fund is provided for the en-
ployes of this government enterprise
and the company pays the membership
subscription to the benefit fund with
no deduction from the workman's pay.
The above seems horrible narra-
tive to the energetic American exploit
er of labor.
1t would have seemed very stupid
in fact quite incomprehensible, to the
French government at any time before
the revolution.
But the revolution taught France
and some other people that nation,
like any other structure. is insecure
when its foundation is agitated The
of nation is the enormous
leass of working people, and that
the French have learned
to respect and to treat we'll.
We shall learn as much here some
day. Let us hope we shall leara it
more peaceably than the French cid.

The heirs of Cornelius Vanderbilt
are fighting the payment of an inherit
ance tax of $64.2OS, imposed on the
trust fund left by w. Fl. Vanderbilt for
the children of Cornelius. They say
that this imposition was not legal. But
their regard for legality does not seem
to lead them to take any steps toward
paying up the $16,0o0,OO0 or so of per-
sonal taxes that were due and not paid
on the Cornelius Vanderbilt estate
while its late owner was alive.
