their losses through extortionate coal rates
when mining has been resumed They be-
lieve 1t is wise to spend even millions in
this fight if they can thereby break the
power of the union. At the same time Nit
chell declares that if the present union is
broken another VIII soon arise to take its
place, which is probably true.
The immediate issue of the strike is
whether the mines are to be destroyed by
flooding. The union is bending it's energies
to prevent the working of the pumps. On
the result of this fight the ultimate outcome
of the strike may depend. The strikers
have undoubtedly alenated public SYM
pathy by their move against the pumps, for
this not only seems a silly thing to do,
threatening the extinction of the industry
which has supported them. but it menaces
the welfare of many millions of coal users.
1t is as though street railway men on strike
were to uproot the entire fixed plant of
the offending corporation. thus depriving
them of a chance to earn wages when the
strike is settled and robbing the public of
transportation facilities.
Mitchell does not touch upon this point
ment will not be regarded by the public as
satisfactorily covering the situation His
appeal for a submission of the difficulty to
final arbitration has the right sound and
if the statement were more frank on the

the properties it would probably have a de-

Cornelfs sweeping victory at Poughkeep-
sic Saturday. winning the varsity, fresh
man and four-oared races from a strong
feld of entries, sets the Ithaca standard
higher than ever. even though no records
were broken. Year after year the Won
derful oarsmen of Cornell have gone on
adding to their laurels For thirty years
now there have been Cornell crews in the
intercollegiate regatxas, eissaer here or in
England. The Ithacan varsity crews have
rcWed in that time in forty-two races and
have won twenty-eight of them The Uni
versity of Pennsylvania crew has been Cor
nell's chief opponent of late years. but of
the races in which both crews participated
Cornell has won seventeen and Pennsyl-
yania only six. so that up to date the New
York university has long lead over the
Keystone oarsmen.
Just what it is that makes it possible for
Cornell to turn out such remarkable crews
no two oarsmen exactly agree. One de-
ciares that it is the exceptional trainers
whom Cornell has engaged, such men as the
present Charles Courtney. for instance.
Others decide that 1t is because Ithaca is

Mr.. Olney and His Boomers.

Mr.. Olney's letter to his Memphis ad-
mirers is in keeping with his reputation for
observation-disclosures. There is an impression
in localities where the ex-Secretaryz is well
known that he was not born yesterday 1t
is true he has had no long experience i'll
the field of politics From a laws office he
came, and to a law office he returned Four
years away from his books and comfortable
fees seemed to satisfy him, and he hurried
back to Boston at the close of his service
in the State Department as fast as a fast
express could carry him.
But during those four years Il wide-awake
man, such as MIR. Olney is known to be-
must have learned no little about politics
and politicians. The second Cleveland ad-
mlnistration covered a period of storm and
stress. There was something doing every
day in the week, and Sunday too. States
men were made and unmade. Theories were
as thick as blackberres by the roadside
Popular favorites fourished for a day, and
then faded out. Mr.. Olney saw his OWL
chief start in a sort of demi-god and come
out an object of the bitterest party hatred
The effect of all this on a thoughtful man
who for SO many years had drawn inspira-
ton from intellectual combats in court
houses must have been pronounced.
Then we may we'll believe that when he
considered Memphis as the headquarters of
his presidential boom Mr. Olney must have
tapped his forehead and asked himself a
few questions Didn't Isham CT Harris live
in Memphis? And wasn't he free silver
man? And didn't he remain the citys idol
up to the day of his death? Isn't Memphis
the home of Josiah Patterson? And wasn't
he retired to private life because he took
the gold standard side of the money ques-
ton? Isn't Memphis the home of Edward
Carmack? And didn't he secure favor at
the same time that Judge Patterson lost it?
How comes it therefore that these Mem
phlans, who have for years gone such
lengths for free silver. turn to me, a gold
standard man. in the matter of the presi-
dency? 1t is two years till the nomination
is due. What assurance have / that if |
permit them to put me on a pedestal now
they will not throw me down before the
national convention meets and trample me
under foOt?"
What assurance. indeed? There are no
warmer admirers, while their fever is up
than the southern democrats. But when
they cool off-and they have a way of cool
ing off very unexpectedly-they become
cool, indeed. For particulars. address the

better physical trim. being out of the range
of a big citys dissipations. Again. 1t is
declared that the air of Ithaca is conducive
to good lungs and legs. while there are
those who insist that the high hill upon
which the university buildings are placed
at Ithaca is responsible for both the great
muscular and breathing qualities of the
Cornell oarsmen. Probably the net result
is a combination of all these causes, to-
gether with the enthusiasm which prestige
produces and the natural tendency of young
men with liking for Craftsmanship to ally
themselves with an institution which Offers
such exceptional opportunities for distinc-
ton. Thus with good raw material and
good training and environment which
ccnduces to clean living and strong body
| making. the Ithacans go on year after year
and gain International renown. The great
misfortune is that there is not closer as
ISOLATION between the crews which row an
nually at Poughkeepsie and those of Yale
and Harvard, permitting a truly national
annual test of Craftsmanship. AS far as the
records stand however, Cornell, by virtue
OF her few meetings with these crews, is
today at the head of American college

Mitchell's Statement.

The statement issued b. President Nit
chell of the Coal Miners Union regarding
the issues n the anthracite strike puts the
miners in the attitude Of a willingness to
arbitrate all differences and TO abide by the
result. while the mine owners are unwill-
ing To submit 10 arbitration for fear of
recognizing the union. This is in brief the
one great issue Of the whole controversy.
The men claim that they are under-paid in
consideration Ct the dangers of hard-coal
mining. that the ton scale Is unjust in
view of the waste and that the coal COM
panies can well afford to ameliorate these
conditions. Mitchell asserts that the coal
mining companies, owned in turn by the
railroad companies, pay to the latter such
exorbitant rates for freight that they are
enabled to make a fictitious showing OF pow
erty when asked for betterment of con-
ditions
The companies. naturally. have not yet
met MitchelFs statement specifically, but it
is possible to conceive their answer in terms
of their previous replies to the Overtures of
the miners They declare their inability to
pay larger wages. or to ensure more strict
ly against danger in the workings. or to
permit the union to represent the men in
all controversies. Barring the disaster of a

ton to resist the dema nds for a certain
