THE PROHIBITION PiRIN.

The prohibitionists of Iowa met this
week at Waterloo and nominated a
ticket and adopted their platform for
this years campaign, and are nov
prepared to march up the hill and then
march down again. They do not ex-
pect to win or TO receive a large vote.
with them political duty means simply
rallying around the cardinal principle,
the prohibition of the sale of liquor by
law They seek to destroy the traffic
by legal enactment that has been tried
and found wanting. This plank, and
such others that appeal To their favor,
constitute their platform. These are.
equal suffrage without regard to SEX,
popular election of senators by the peo
PIE, a worlds court of arbitration, and
changes in the tariff such as necessity
demands by a non-partisan commission.
These latter are approved by hosts of
pecne and would awaken little OPPOSE
ton if presented without the imprae
ticable theory. The party has made
progress enough to reject the
initiative and referendum prop
osjtion. which appears to be
taken up all the minority par
ties from time to time. A glance thru
their platform shows that the prohibi-
tionists are inspired by lofty ideals and
an impraeticable theory. They hold
strictly to a narrow view This is re-
public where the majority rules, and
the majority constantly holds against
their chief theory as the result of ex-
perience. and will continue to SO hold
as long as man is constituted as he is

BRITISH TRIBUTE TO AMeR;cA.

When skilled representatives of one
of the Oldest iron working nations OF
the world visit our country and pay a
tribute to the superiority OF American
iron employees as TO the amount OF worl;
done, the energetic spirit displayed by
them and the greater compensation re-
ceived by them. it is as gratifying TO the
employers as to the workmen. This is
British testimony in regar; to Ameri-
can industry.
Labor conditions in the iron and
steel industries of the United States in
contrast with those in the United
Kingdom and European countries gen
orally are discussed at great length by
the commission appointed by the Brit
ish Iron Trade Association which re-
Gently visited the United States and
thoroughly studied its great iron and
steel manufacturing establishments.
This commission consisted OF Mr.. j. S.
Jeans. whose name is already We'll
known to the people of the United
States as an authority upon these sub
jects; Mr. .Axel Sahlin. an expert in
blast furnace work; Mr. Ebenezer
Parkes. whose special study was sheet
and bar-mill practice. and Mr.. Enoch
James who gave special attention to
the steel industry: While Mr.. Jeans
special work WAS to report upon the
general economic and industrial conli-
lions.
The report of this commission, ac-
cording 10 some extracts which have
reached the treasury bureau of statis-
tics, points out that in the United
States the iron and steel industries are
face to face with conditions that make
both the dearest and cheapest labor at
present to be found in the world the
dearest in point of nominal remunera-
ton. and the cheapest in industrial ana
economic results. The workmen at
American mills" says Mr.. James In his
share of the report, are generally sup
posed to be working much harder than
hey do in this country (EnglandD. but
his is not my own view After much
conversation with many men in various
branches who had been employed in
similar works in England, and some of
them subject to my own control, the
conclusion have arrived at is that the
American workmen do not work 50
hard as the men in England. They have
