COMPULSORY ARBITRATION.
fIyaal-,,l- Cato fsit1-


Governor Stone of Pennsylvania pro-
poses a summary plan of compulsory
arbitration. He would allow either
party to a dispute to propose to arbi-
trate it and forthwith to appoint it's
own representatives. The other party
must then do the same. If it fail to do
so, it is to be adjudged in the wrong.
Ii it is the worllmen who refuse to sub
nit to arbitration, the governor is to
"apprehend riot" and must at once
send a sufficient force to preserve the
peace and to protect the men who wish
TO work; if the employers refuse to ar
bitrate. he is to close the mine or fac
tory until they submit. Such a drastic
proposition is not likely to be incorpor-
ated into law. Nor should it be. Men
ought not to be compelled to work
against their will, nor should employers
be compelled to employ workmen who
are personally Objectionable to them
or to keep their factories in operation
under improbable conditions. The diff
ficulty with all compulsory arbitration
measures is that they go too far and
to accomplish too much.

lom, United States senator from
Illinois: w. j. Bryan, editor of the
Commoner, and John j. Lent member
of congress from Columbus o.. endorse
the action of the referendum league.
Carter II. Harrison says: Il am in
| thorough SYMPATHY with the leagues
ideas, and believe the referendum to be
the greatest safeguard against corrupt
legislation and Doodle in politics. /
have favored the referendum for the
last four years as the proper method of
testing public sentiment on all fran
chise grants
Senator Cullo,n writes: II note the
purpose of your league and think very
we'll of Its proposed work. IT. by such
action. corrupt legislation in our state
can be prevented. it will be a great
thing. as one would certainly think
from all accounts given out that our
state legislators are becoming Very un-
safe, unless controlled by the voice of
the people"
w. j. Bryan expresses his hearty
sympathy with the efforts Of the league
TO secure a trial of the initiative and
referendum
Congressman Lentz writes in a SINH
lar vein, these expressions showing it
has the endorsement of republicans and
democrats.
The republic of Switzerland first
adopted the referendum. its advocates
successfully urging the people to claim
the right to sweep away a law as well
as to pass one. When 10000 citizens, or
eight cantons, of Switzerland demand
the right, the laws and resolutions of a
general nature passed by the Swiss
congress must be submitted to a pop
ular vote, and a majority of the people
can thus veto any law. The initiative
empowers the people to propose new
laws or call for the alteration or ;,boli-
ton of existing laws. The referendum
PSAateS ioSdlly dS Wen as nationality.
In our own nation the referendum has I
been adopted in several states. At the
state election in Oregon last June a I
amendment was passed
by two-thirds vote, providing for the
initiative and referendum in state leg
lslation. Whenever s per cent o. the
Oregon voters petition for a specific law
i must be submitted to popular vote,
md majority passes it. A law passed
oy the legislature must be submitted to
popular vote whenever per cent Of
he voters of the state petition fer it,
md a majority vetoes the law. The
'eto of the governor of Oregon does not
extend to measures thus submitted toll
he people. South Dakota has a similar i,
aw. The idea is growing in favor ana
without doubt will be adopted by other
tates in time.

FRUITS OF CIVIL WAR.

The suffering and misery caused by a
civil war or revolution are SO disastrous
and demoralizing that all means tC
avoid or avert them ought to be
adopted. Venezuela. a republic OF
South America, is in the throes of such
destructive experience and the end
does not appear to be near, for Presi-
dent Castro with the regular army. and
General Matos, the revolutionary lead
er, make equally content statements.
Meantime the people are suffering and
Minister Bowen, at Caracas, has for
warded to Washington a plaintive ap-
peal in their behalf. Whatever funds
are contributed by Americans will be
Used to buy cooked food for the poor.
A glimpse only the distressing situa-
ton is all that is needed to reveal the
suffering caused by this war. In his
appeal, copy of which Minister Bowen
has forwarded to the state department,
Mr.. Pond, the American missionary,
says that in his experience he never has
known anything to compare with the
widespread and hopeless poverty of the
present" Business enterprises are
paralyzed, and the rural districts are in
a state of desolation, having been
stripped by the troops Of both the gov
eminent and the revolution. 1.-THE act
ually starving" he writes, ARE rapidly
invading the city in the hope of obtain
ing something to do. or at least some
thing to eat" He refers to the fact that
Minister Bowen himself is daily feeding
hundred or more destitute men,
women and children. most Of whom can
not gain morsel more AT least half
the families of this city," says Mr.. |
Pond, "can gain only one fair meal
day. Hundreds can not obtain that. The
price Of all necessaries of life is very I
high. and rising STILL owing to the war
panic and the prolonged hostilities."

SIXTY YEARS AN EDITOR.
Glib Hunt. of saix siftinss, Says He
Still Fears No Man.


Just for flare" The editor of this
paper has been in the newspaper busi-
ness three-fifths of century-fifty odd
years of which have been put in on
northwestern soil. He has made three
completeness at it-one of which he
lost thru fire, at LeMars in 1854, and
two of which he used in boosting the
revenue in manner not all commend
able, but which has been partially eN-
plunged by more than ten years In the
realms of the White Banner Of Total
Abstinence.
Naturally he has come In contact
with many kinds of men; but he never
yet put eyes upon a persistent law de-
flyer whom he feared-not one AS fore
man of federal and state grand juries
he has many times affixed his signature
to legal documents that started these
ducks flying to their deserved homes In
the penal institutions. but he didn't fear
them, and he don't fear them now. And
that's Dads PLATFORM No personal
filings are Intended; but If any law
breaker wants to pick 1t up his chance
is real good and he'll get action" at

BIG PETITION FOR REFERENDUM.

A political movement is in progress
in Illinois that may bring about impor-
tant changes in that state. Twenty
members of referendum league re-
Gently arrived at Springfield, the capt.
tai. with a monster petition, bearing
the signatures of 144,918 voters of Illi-
nois, the paper filling a large dry goods
box. the petitioners calling for vote
in November all over the state with a
view to influencing the next legislature
by public opinion to do three things:
Provide for applying the initiative and
referendum principle in local, county,
city and town affairs; provide for APP
plying the same principle in all mat
tiers Of state legislation; take the nee
essary constitutional steps toward Sc
curing the election Of United States
senators by direct vote of the people.
The signatures have been secured by
the efforts of 10000 volunteers, working
in eighty-five Of the 102 counties Of the
state Not cent of money has been
spent on this, except for printing and
postage, according to the averment Of a
league Official.
Letters from prominent legislators
and public men attest the general inn
portance Of the document. Carter H.

SOLDIERS GAMBLE ON SHIP.
Men Returning from Philippines Bare.
Iy Stop Games for Meals.

San Francisco, Cal, Sept. 9.-Soldiers
who returned from the Philippines on
the transport Buford from Manila tell
tales of heavy gambling by soldiers on
the voyage. The Buford carried over
900 men, who had been paid sums rang
ing from 500 to $500 before the ship
left Manila.
The soldiers messroom was used as
gambling place and was filled all day
with soldiers playing for high stakes
at monte, poker and craps. Play ceased
only when the tables were In use for
meals. A casual of the Sixth cavalry
won over $4,000 from his comrades and
a private in the Eighth infantry won
$4,000.
After receiving their wages in Ma
Mia the soldiers We're in quarantine and
had no chance to spend the money in
that city. The soldiers say it was not
uncommon to see $500 staked on the
turn of n card at monte, and that two
soldiers in the Eighth cavalry shot
craps for S1,750. At times the play be-
came so intense the officer of the day
had to go into the messroom and stop
the gambling to allow the mess boys
to set the tables for meals.
