means. Every citizen is bound by the
fact of his citizenship to help preserve
the law and order of the community IN
which he lives. The man who lives
upon wages, equally with his neigh5or,
the capitalist, is responsible to the
country for his share in maintaining
peace and order. Is it to be assumed
that the peace is not to be preserved
when a strike riot threatens, merely be-
cause the preservation of peace might
defeat the purposes Of the strikers? We
hardly think so. That is not good
Americanism. and it will be a bad day
for this country when its bone and
sinew, the Iaboring class, refuse to en-
list in the ranks of our citizen soldiery.
Perhaps it would be needless to thrash
over the old straw Of the strike question
at this time. Labor and capital, thank
God, are really getting closer together
than ever they have been before. The
Times has frequently argued that the
former could get about all of its legiti-
mate demands, and secure its reason
able proportion Of the wealth it aids in
producing if it could guarantee good
faith and performance, as il can hold
the other party TO perform its obliga-
tions
Outside of the trusts, there are few
Americans who do not sympathize with
the workingman, that is, when he does
not become obnoxious to the public, by
acting as the street car employees in Al
bany did few weeks ago. The trac-
tiOn company in that city may have
been unjust to its servants. For the
sake of argument we will admit that it
was; but that did not justify the dis
order which resulted from the strike of
the men. 1t is the right of every Amer
lean citizen 10 earn his bread by the
sweat of his brow exactly as it pleases
him so to do. The fact tEat an organ
ization of persons in his avocation calls
him a "scab" and attempts to coerce
him does not alter the truth. And
society owes it to itself to protect him
in the exercise of his right. Law and
order must be maintained, and, in the
last resort, law and order can only be
maintained by the use of the military
arm. Heretofore there have been no
classes of American citizens who have
not recognized this, or who have not
cheerfully and pauiotically given their
quota to our citizen military organiza-
ton. 1t is impossible to believe that
such a foolish idea as has sprouted in
Albany should become prevalent. When
the day comes that American working
men are so convinced of the destruction
of free institutions that they Will no
longer enlist in the local militia, it is
time for them to enlist in something
else and fight.

Americans do not believe in the idea OF i

It looks as if undue Importance were
being attached to the circumstance that
Mr.. Whitney's horse, with an American
jockey in the saddle, won the English
Derby. The horse was not American and
it is by no means certain that he won
merely because he was ridden by an
American Perhaps he did. but it has
not been proved. In horseracinG the
skill of the rider counts for much, and
where the horses are weil matched, FREE
cuently is decisive. Bat after all, the
actual speed of the horse IS the main
factor. The best jockey the world ever
saw could not win the Derby with
Shetland pony. There seems to be con-
sensus of opinion that the methods Of
American jockeys are better than those
which have long been in vogue in Eng
land, but single race proves very little.
1t may be that Mr.. Whitney's horse was
the best in the field and would have won
just the same with an English jockey up.
We must not claim too much.

Washington. Feb S.-The night ses-

night and tomorrow. It is stated tAal
they may be again held next week
The Republicans say that if the Repup-
lican majority is willing and deter
mined to go ahead with the subsidy
bill. the minority must take the re-
sponsibility Of forcing an extra session
for the appropriation bills.
An Intellectual effort was made IN the

made by opponents Of the. measure
against such agreement even for date
in the indefinite future.

Mr.. Pritchard IN. O. spoke in sup
port of the measure, dealing it in con-
nectiOn with the advancement OF
southern industries. 1t was, in MS
opinion. the most vital measure pre-
scented to congress in recent years, as
il proposed to build up an industry not
onIv valuable in itself, but specially
valuable in advancing the interests of
the entire country. He produced figures
in an attempt to prove that the south
was particularly interested in the en-
actment of the pending measure.

On a long discussion The senate COM
nittee had stricken out the house pro-
vision that the naval cadets who had
completed four years regular course at
the academy should be commissioned
as naval officers at once Mr.. Hale eX-
planned that by the house provision 142
officers would be dumped" into the
navy At one time at the foot of the list,
thus creating what was known tech
nically as a hump in the list. This
hump" would stop the promotion of
the younger officers. It was not ex-
pected, Mr.. Hale said. that officers
should be provided Immediately for all
the war vessels authorized If SUCH q
plan were followed il would cost $780,
