FRIDAY EVENING. AUG. 9. 1901

soME BREACHES are prone to be IN
,aot and, like some teachers, are
ant 70 treat men % though they were
children. Mr.. Shaffer, president OF the
Awslgamated Association, VINO YVES
formerly q Methodist preacher, has J0s'
"ordered out" several thousand men,
rot because they we're dissatisfied WITH
their work or their pay, but because ne
and the paid officers OF his association
decided that none of their members
should be allowed to work In mills
which employed men who did not De-
Iony TO their association. Oi course
sucb men as Mr.. Shaffer can have very
little true Christianity in their makeup
but il would be supposed that while ne
was a preacher ne had so often repeat
al the golden rule as to have been
somewhat Impressed with its teachings
of do unto others as you would have
them do unto you. Mr.. Snafier is go
iotolerant that because skilled arti'
san, who, for his own personal reasons
and independence of principles refused
to mite himself with some organiza'
tion. he must be denied forever that
right to work at his trade by which
alone be is enabled to support himself
and family. Such intolerance cannon
stand 10 country of free Institutions
As we'll might Mr.. Shsffer say that al
men who do not belong to his church
but who prefer some other denoml
nation must be cast out and thrown
upon the cold charities OF the world
The constitution and bill of rights o.
this.country give to every man the priv
leRe of earning living and engaging in
pursuit of happiness, and because he
does not choose to unite with some or
sanizatiou, so long as be does mol
interfere with the rights and privileges
OF other people. he has the right and
the law on his side and must be pro
tected-otherwise, anarchy would
reign.

Kitchener's Proclamation.

London, Aug. 8. "A parliamentary
paper was issued today which contains
General Lord Kitchener's proclamation
of August z. The proclamation begins
by defining the present condition OF al
fairs 10 South Africa. The British troops
1t says, control the seats OF Govern
ment, the principal towns and railways.
80 900 burghers are prisoners or living
peacefully under British protection
those who are still fighting continue to
keep the country In state OF disturb
ance which is checking the resumption
of agricultural aud industrial pursuits.
Continuing the proclamation reads:
Therefore /, Lord Kitchener, under
instructions from bis Msjesty's govern
ment, proclaim and make known aS
follows: All leaders OF armed bands
being burghers 10 the late republics
and still engaged ln resisting bis Majesty
forces, and all members Of the govern
ments of the late Orange Free State
shall, unless they surrender be-
fore September 10 next, be permanent
ly banished from South Africa, and
the cost of maintenance OF the burgher'
in the field who shall not surrender by
September Is shall be recoverable from
sucn burghers and shall be a charge
upon their property"

IT Is said in political circles in Rich
moud that a determined fight will be
made at the Norfolk State democratic
convention to have Incorporated In the
platform a clause declaring for the prin-
ciple embed 10 the employers liza
bility bill. 1t is to be hoped that no
such effort will be made. Such matters
have DO place In party platforms and
are apt to act as boomeraDgs. Honest
men now have all the laws necessary
for their protection If they are Injured
while in the employ of corporations or
individuals, and the highest courts in
the State have decided that the measure
referred to is unjust and unconstitution'
al. Such measure would do more harm
than good 10 the State and would deter
macy men from giving employment to
others.

 These results, unless modified by the official figures, will give the fusionists complete control of the taxing machinery of the city as we'll as of the various boards concerned in the appropriation and distribution of the public funds.
 Perhaps the greatest surprise or the election next to the defeat in Staten Isl and of Congressman Nicholas Muller, who was a candidate for borough presi- dent in the Borough of Richmond, Is the apparent triumph of the county ticket in the old city and county of New York, For Justices of the Supreme Court, Nor gan J. O'Brien, Samuel Greenbaum, John Proctor Clarke and James A. Blanchard, the fusionist candidates, were all elected, defeating Robert A. VanWyck. Charles w Dayton and Charles H. Knox. Justice O'Brien was nominated upon both tickets. Mayor vanwyck ran heavily behind his associates on the judicial and county ticket. The election of William Travers Jerome fusionist, over Henry w. Unger, Democrat is admitted by all parties.
 The campaign of Justice Jerome attract ed general attention throughout the county owing to his activity and to the number of speeches made in ~..lerent sec tions of the city. The office of sheriff on the county Ucket III NcW 1ork COuhty is still claimed by both parties, John T. Oakley, Democrat, running ahead of Will liam J. O'Brien, fusionist.

PLANS FOR ARBITRATION.
Work of the Pan-American Confer
 ence Along This Line

Mexico City, Nov. 5.-The proposal for a treaty of arbitration and court of ar- bitration which will be submitted to ths Pan-American Conference tomorrow by the Mexican delegation. Is largely fram- ed on lines raised by The Hague peace conference However, 1t proposes an in- creased number of obligatory subjects for arbitration and creates various sanc- lions with a view to coercion or punish ment of nations which, after signing treaty, fail to live up to it.
 Among the sanctions proposed are the following: The aggrieved nation and any other nation sympathlzing with it may terminate their treaties with the offend ing power before the proper date for their expiration Members of the offending power on the court of arbitration may be erased therefrom. and If the majority of the nations signing the treaty approve, note of censure may be addressed to the said power.
 In extreme cases. the disappearing pow CTS may suspend diplomatic relations with the recalcitrant government.

The legislature of 1902 will stand 1s9 Re- publicans; 79 Democrats and two Social Democrats on joint ballot. The Demo crats made a gain in the House, but suffered a loss in the Senate.
 With no State nor national issues' anu but few local contests to arouse interest there were more ballots cast in the state election today than in any or year Tn the history of the State. The total vote exceeded 30o.000.
 As usual the Republicans had no dif- ficulty in carrying the State, w. Murray Crane, being elected Governor for the third time by practically the same ma tority as when he first ran for the office in 1898.
 The State Legislature of 1902 will be strongly Republican, although the Demo- crats gained few votes. Josiah Quincy the Democratic candidate for Governor ran about 10000 behind the vote cast for the party candidate in the Presidential election last year, but he so materially increased the Democratic vote in Boston as to give the local leaders great con- fidence for a party victory in the muni- cipal election next month.
 Josiah Quincy. former mayor Of Boston carried the city today by a plurality or 76ss in his contest with w. c. Crane for the Governorship. This is a gain of about 4,6O0 over the plurality accorded In this city last year to Robert Treat Fame. Jr, in his contest with Governor crane. The total vote cast shows natural fall ing falling off this year. Last November Governor Crane received s5.597 and today his votes numbered 31.456. Paine's vote in 900 was 3s.696: Quincys in 1901 IS S9,155.
 Returns from every city and town in the State except the town Of Dart mouth give Crane. R., 1S5,500; Quincy, D., l15,370. Last year the total vote Of the State was: Crane, R.. 22s.o54; Paine. D., 130.07S. Cranes plurality in the State, ap- proximating Dartmouth is 7o,40S.
