bitration court to enforce it's DEGREES by
the imposition of severe penalties in
case they were dsregdrdsd
1t is more than probable that such
power will have TO be conferred by the
constitution in nearly all the states. The
public. too even in the case Of consti-
tutional warrant would probably be con-
fined to interference only in cases where
the operation OF some public utility or
franchise was concerned, the people in
such cases being vitality Interested in
the dispute. Il is doubtful in any case
II the right to quit work could he de-
MED to any man or the right to dis
charge an employe denied to an employer.
But constitutional authority to interfere
in cases OF labor disturbances affecting
the operation Of public franchises would
undoubtedly prevent public disorder or
violence and would enable the arbitra-
ton courts TO provide for unbroken SER
vice through temporary rcceiverships or
control of the property.
There are grave questions involved It
will be seen, but the subject matter Is
OF such overshadowing Importance as to
justify the public in taking intelligent,
energetic and necessary measures for It's
own protection. Texas was the hrst OF
the States to make railroad COMMITS
sion law effective and 1t was done by
going to the right source for 'plenary
powers 10 enforce The commission de-
crees. Compulsory arbitration must also
have back OF 1t the power Of the State
TO carry the decisions OF the court into
full effect and to provide for complete
State control until the difficulties are
adjusted,
In commenting on Mrs Heartz's pro-
posed constitutional amendment the Dem
yer News says: Let us have compul-
sorry arbitration and make an end OF
crude Industrial conditions which
answered well enough in the Seventeenth
century. but which are ridiculous in the

JOSEPH WELDON BAILEY.

Atlanta Constitution
The magnificent Endorsement given Mr..
Bailey by the legislature of Texas should
estop the mouths Of his political enemies
who sought to smirch his character.
The atteapt to justify SANDER by the
assertion that it was uttered in politi-
cal sense was reprobated by the legls-
iatorS of Texas. They held that a man
must hold TO the truth in politics as well
as in every other concern of life. This is
a principle often overlooked, blu. the
prominence given it In this campaign
should make it active for few years.
Senator Bailey, as well as the United
States senate itself, is to be congia tu-
lated

WITH TRIPLES.


Oh. would I might sing or might tell
you the glory
In measure inspired, that would lead
you to see
The far-roaching prairies, the scenes
famed In story,
The story Of heroes who dared to be
free!
The bayou sweeps cool in the forests
dim shadows;
The cardinal fits like flame thro' the
dark,
And each morn while the dew drinks per-
fume from the meadows
Comes The lifting refrain of the up
springing lark
And the wildaowers sway, and they watt
full measure
o, perfume and beauty that ladens each
breeze;
And Nature grown prodigal, scatters her
treasure
Like tumultuous spray Of the wind
driven seas;
And the blooms dip and sway thro' the
spring and the summer,
And the rose petals blush meath mid
winters caress;
And each warm southern breeze is per-
TUNED forerunner
or new pleasure, new beauties and a
new tenderness.
And the wreaths OF the past days watch
evry endeayor;
The shades Of the heroes who battled
and bled
That the land might be theirs and their
children's forever;
The need Of the living, their sepuIchre
dead;
And there is no land. be 1t old as the
earth knows,
with the fame of such heroes as Texas
can show
And there is no breeze that around the
wide word bows
Lifts the perfume from blossoms such
as their tombs know

are somewhat like the farmers who make
It virtue to resent the advice Of the

profit by listening occasionally to dis
Interested observers on the outside.
