- the expectation of the miners
l. as being that Eat least some
measure of victory will be
attained" and that "the organization
will be upheld at all hazards" Yet the
organization was in a healthy condition
when the strike began and did not need
the strike to strengthen it. But If only
''some measure of victory" is to be ex-
pected, will it be sufficient to compen-
safe for all that the strike has cost
those engaged in it, to say nothing Of
the public?
We do not doubt that victory will be
attained by the miners in the long run,
in spite of the strike. 1t is plainly to
be seen that when the present cruel war
is over a new spirit will enter into the
relations of employer and employe in
the anthracite industry-the spirit of
mutual respect which sometimes Is bet
ter manifested after bitter fight than
before 1t may readily be believed that
neither side, after the present lesson,
will take rash chances of mourning the
others ill will but will strive to gain
each others good will and put mutual
interests on a footing of profit and
stability. That will work out, as sure
as fate. 1t would have worked out, in
our opinion, had there been no strike.
1t is in the air. American industry is
coming to it more and more each year.
What has to be learned by both sides,
however, is that there is a better way
of coming to such an understanding
than by Furnishing each other and i'm
posing on the public. While the spirit
exists in a community which takes life
and destroys property to terrorize into
idleness men who want to work, the
rough tug of war is inevitable. The
victory to labor will come when this
spirit of anarchy is crushed to death.
1t cannot come before.

According to reports of the most re-
cent negro cremation in Mississippi, the
victim of the will Of "the best citizens"
acknowledged that he deserved his fate
and went willingly to the stake. The
average reader may have some doubts
as to the attractive features of a South
ern lynching at short range, but when
placed upon record by the suave COR
respondent, it certainly becomes very
quiet and orderly affair.

General Alger's victorious campaign
for the Michigan senatorship will re-
store the good humor that he lost under
adverse circumstances; please his many
friends, who believe that he was un-
fairly criticized and sacrificed while
secretary of war; and afford to the Re-
publican party of Michigan a creditable
and efficient representation in the
senate chamber. In the light Of this
vindication he can afford to be gener-
Gus toward those who formerly incurred
his displeasure. He will, moreover, find
life in the senate far more soothing
than was his earlier job.

Another transcOntinental railroad Is
planned and it is splendid testimon-
ial to Republican times. There was
very little new railroad building when
the Democrats were in power. In
those days most railroad managers had
all they could do to keep out Of re-
ceivers' hands.

1t is challenged by employers and again
by extremists among the trade union
lists; but in the long run the native
common sense and inherited independ-
ence of the Anglo-Saxon stock assert
themselves and these incidental OBJ
stacles to labor's development are
brushed away. This historic and abso-
lutte fact is a good thing to remember
at time when the local horizon Is by
no means cloudless.

David L. Thompson, our new minis

32 years ago, at Lincoln, Neb., as a

Bryan that the young man has no

the running. The recent canvass was
conducted on the same lines as gem
eral election. Candidates had district
and county headquarters, with ex-
pensive organizations to bring out the
vote and pay transportation charges.
It is estimated that the personal ex-
penses of the various candidates for
congress In the nine districts in Mlnne-
sofa aggregated sl5O,0oO, averaging
about $4,000 apiece for those who won
and those who lost. In state like
Minnesota, where economy In political
expenditure has been the rule and
where many men expect to pay the
expenses of their campaigns out OF the
salaries of the offices they seek ana
live on what is left, this scale of costs
is virtually prohibitive. But when the
system is older this may work out. 1t
will not prevent an active poor man OF
extraordinary ability and popularity
from defeating at slight personal ex-
pense an ordinary opponent relying
on the use of money.
There was some murmuring among
them to declare their party affiliations
when asking for ballots 1t came from
those who wanted to vote for friends
in each party. The provision is neces-
sary, however, to prevent trading. 1t
is proper that Republicans should
make Republican nominations and
Democrats the Democratic nominal
tions. At the general election each citi-
zen may split his ticket as much as he
pleases, If he is of the ticket-splitting
kind: but at the primaries the sheep
should be kept separate from the goats,
in fairness to both.
Altogether it is conceded that the
Minnesota plan worked fairly well on
it's first trial and that the nominations
made were the ones that a majority of
the voters wanted. That, after all, is
the main point.

AsorHER RAILROAD RUMoR regard

ANOTHER RAILROAD RUMOR regard
ing the building OF cut off from
Syracuse, Kans., to Las Vegas. N.
NJ, by The Santa Fe has recently
gotten into print. The avowed
reason for Its construction being
to avoid the one hundred miles of
heavy grade on its main line be
tween La Junta and Ration. thus
shortening the distance to Calilor-
mia as well as the time. Spring
field is on the air line between
Syracuse and Las Vegas and also
on the best natural route, so that

GIRLS FIGHT 4 DUEL
OVER INDIAN GUIDE
Both Were in Love With
Handsome Jim Short.
Used Airguns in the Combat and Nothing
Serious Resulted-Were Daughters
Of Wealth

FENLON Wis, March 20.-Because
Della Shorest. the daughter Of a PhiIadei-
phia landowner, was in love with Jim
Short. a handsome Indian guide. Evelyn
Mahoney, Of Milwaukee. started a quar-
rel. Miss shortest then used a horsewhip.
and this led to the challenge and accept
ance Of duel.
Yesterday morning the girls met a few
miles from Mellen. Wis. and supposed
they we're 10 use real Winchester rifles
Instead two airguns Of the same pattern
were substituted. The Philadelphia girl
fired when the Milwaukee girl was about
ready TO press the trigger.
Miss Mahoney felt the bullet on her
chest and fell When she found the bull
let had not touched her skin she was
ready for reconciliation, and so was the
Fastener, who thought she had commit
ted murder Miss Shortest is the daugh-
ter OF Philadelphia man who owns large
tracts OF pine lands near Fenlon. and she
was spending the winter near here.
Miss MahOney was also spending the
winter here. They were both learning to
use snOwshocs. skis and other equip
ments Of woodmen, and Short was their
guide. He is a handsome Indian, but
did not know OF the proposed duel
