Mr., Mauley of Maine,

The wisdom of Joseph H. Manley's deliv-
erance about control of the next House is to
be doubted. His statement that the re-
publicans could well afford to lose will dis
credit his prediction that they will win. AS
a matter of fact they are trying to win, on
the ground that success is Of the highest
Importance as respects the situation two
years hence. There Is work for the party
to do. 1t Is work that should not be post
poned. A divided responsibility in Congress
one party In control Of one house. and
the other of the other-would postpone it.
The most important affairs of the country
would be brought to a halt, and all We
should witness for eighteen months would
be lot of maneuvering-a species Of legis-
lative huggermugger-for effect on the next
presidential campaign. Scheming managers
in each party would be busy preparing a
gold brick in the way Of a platform to be
offered to the public in 1904. Mr.. Harris Of
Kansas and Mr.. Manley of Maine should
meet and exchange winks.

Governor Lafollette may have been A
little slow about taking the stump, but now
that he has taken it there can be no doubt
as to where he stands. His speech on yes
terday was very clear and very forcible He
presented the tariff question. the trust ques-
ton, and the coal question in way that
shows him TO be in sympathy with the best
aspirations of the times and the controlling
desires of his party throughout the west
and northwest. That is TO say. in the casa
OF the tarin he differentlates between pro-
lection for legitimate upbuilding and gratui-
ties. In the case of the trusts he regulates
the contention that they spring from the
protective tariff and can only be success
iuliy oeait with by an attack on that policy
And he uses the anthracite coal problem to
show how combinations may be formed for
Controlling prices into which the element
OF protective tariff does not enter.
Everybody. We may believe, except those
who organize such combinations is inter
ested in the search for some means where
by monopolies may be broken up. But in
order that such an end may be reached it is
absolutely necessary 10 deal frankly with
the people on the subject. TO use the trusts
as stalking horse for pushing another free
trade propaganda is nothing but a political
trick. And certainly we have had enough
and TO spare OF trichery on that subject.

Clevelandites four years before had de-
clared that the public interests imperatively
demanded free trade. The people voted for
free trade, but four years later were glad
to vote overwhelmingly for protection
again; and their highest prosperity has
been recorded between 1897 and this hour

The President and the Strike.

The Presidents anxiety to end the coal
strike is justified by every consideration OF
public interest. The situation has reached a
crisis from which it must lead either to
speedy settlement or to a great disaster.
Under the circumstances 1t is imperative
that no means be neglected which might
possibly lead to the former result.
The President has apparently entered upon
his quest for a medium OF Intervention with
a clear understanding that the chances are
small for finding straight way through the
courts to solve the problem. The federal
statutes are inadequate in this regard and
perhaps they afford possible outlet for
the desire of the government to straighten
out tangle which threatens to involve the
welfare of the people to a most serious ex-
tent. But the mere fact that the President
Is invoking the aid of the members of his
cabinet in the effort, that he is determined
to leave no stone unturned in his quest. will
undoubtedly exert a strong moral effect
upon both of the contending sides.
OF course, should the strike extend until
keen weather comes. and the people be
brought ito face starvation or freezing in
consequence of the shortage of coal, the
President employ the last resort of the
adminiSt ration in cases of an emergency
and summon Congress in extra session to
consider ways and means of relieving the
public distress. At such session a law
might be passed to empower the federal
authorities to intervene to end the strike.
The possibility of such action strengthens
the Presidents hands today as he proceeds
to bring the influence of his office to bear
upon the opponents in the great contest
The opinion of many eminent lawyers that
the Boston application for the appointment
OF receiver for the coal mines will not eff
feet a solution adds to the reasons for the
employment of the full force of the govern
ment's prestige and power in the premises.
If there is no remedy through the state
courts and none through the federal courts
the case is indeed desperate. The governor
of Pennsylvania owes it then to the people
not only of his state but of the country at
large to summon the legislature in extra
session without delay for the framing of
either a compulsory arbitration act or the
adoption of some other remedy for the i'm
mediate resumption of mining. There is
assurance that the present mild weather
will last long, and even should it continue
for six weeks the practically prohibitive
coal prices and the extreme shortage of the
supply are causing distress in other ways
and most painfully affecting the people.

Turn of the Typhoid Tide.

The official weekly summary of the health
statistics published today, offers gratifying
evidence that the typhoid fever outbreak is
on the decline. For the first week since the
present period Of frequency began there is a
balance on the right side between the num-
Der of new cases and cases discharged. The
official statement issued at the close of the
first week in August reported forty-two
more new cases than discharges, the second
week twentyseven more cases, the third
week fifty-three more cases and the fourth
week forty-nine more cases. In consequence
the total of cases under treatment at the
close of August was 296 causing the gray
est alarm throughout the District. The be-
ginning of September was marked by a
steady decline in the excess of new cases
ever cases discharged The first September
report showed that this excess aggregated
forty-four cases. the second twenty-seven
cases, the third thirteen cases and the
fourth FIVE cases

Coal to Remain Dear.

From the Louisville Courier Journal.
The anthra cite strike, 1t seems likely, Is
to advance permanently the price Of hard
coal, but, fortunately, 1t will cause little
inconvenience here where btuminous coal Is
abundant and of such high quality. Good
judges Of the market think anthracite will
never again sell as low as during the period
Of depression which was terminated barely
two years ago. This Is one of the direct
results Of the strike of the United Mine
Workers. and Is the means by which the
mine owners will recuperate themselves
from the losses by the strike. They will
sell their coal in the future at prices which
will compensate them for the shutting down
Of their mines this year. Unfortunately
the miners can never make again the wages
