The Proposition for Peace.

Y y THE INTEREST of the public
welfare ii is to be hoped that
speedy aCceptanc" of the propo-
sition OF the operators Will be
made by the striking miners. The
proposition comedies what President
Mitchell has ronlcndcd for, with the
single exception OF recognition of the
union. and he is on record with the
assertion that formal recognition can
be waived If redress of grievances can
be effected by means of Mitchell $
organization, the matter of technical
recognition may we'll await the course
of time
Apart from any question of what may
be called labor politics in its relation
to personal ambition. the prospect of Il
thorough investigation of the anthra-
cite industry by Il commission of COM
petent experts is one Of promise to the
people of this valley. The industry
needs investigation. 1t also needs re-
construction. Its methods can undoubt-
edly be improved and along with such
Improvement there would be reason to
character aNd intelligence among the
mine workers as would materially con-
tribute to the betterment of social con-
ditiOns throughout the coal fields. Such
a result would in the long run we'll re-
pay the cost which the present strike
has inflicted. Unless there shall be
such Il result, the sacrifice will have
been in vain.
1t has taken great deal Of education
in the school of experience to Wrest
from the men who control the anthru-
cite industry the concession embodied
in their latest proposition for peace. 1t
should, therefore, not be lightly re-
Garded. Heretofore the burden OF pub
lie criticism has been upon them, but
their offer is we'll calculated to shift II
over upon their opponents should the
latter show Il disposition to prolons the
public anxiety and Inconvenience in n
search for more advantageous terms.

For The Tribune by Walter j. Ballard
"HE CHIEF need of our wage

Not Hopelessly Helpless.

My whole purpose in what ! have said
Is To challenge the proposition that We
are hopelessly helpless under our system
of government to deal with serious prob
lens which confront MS in respect Ia our
greatest interests. Since the radical
questions of human rights and human
governments have been settled, the pro-
ductiou, preservation ana distribution of
wealth receive the chief attention of
civilized peoples. The extent To which
legislative control over commercial activi-
Ties should he exercised Is, Of course, Il
question for legislative wisdom. We
have the eNpeI fence of the other nations
to guide us in determining how far the
delicate and mysterious rules of trade
can be interfered with by positive stat
utes without injury. That experience
teaches MS that the least interference
consistent with the preservation of es-
sential rights should exist Arbitrary
regulations that restrain free inter-
course are usually found TO he unwse.
Primarily it is for the congress To de-
eide whether II has the power, and
