Defends Labor Unions.

Thomas Kidd discussed "The Labor
Unions and the Mob Spirit" He as
serted the leaders in labor riots were
usually recent converts to unionism,
flushed with the possession Of power.
Mr.. Kidd insisted, however that the
percentage of riots in labor troubles
was very small, saying that records of
25,O00 strikes in seven years show less
than / per cent. attended by riots. He
did not believe Mr.. Perry correctly
represented the'employers Of the coun-
try.
The employment of detectives and
agents who excite the men to violence,
said Mr. Kidd. places much RESPONSE
bility upon certain employers. Organ
ized labor. said he, was not rosponsi-
bic for the employment of private po-
lice during the anthracite strike, for
the whitecapping of miners in Colorado
nor fer the riots at Danville and Ev-
ansville.
The lawlessness Of the few. he in
sisted should not obscure the good cit
izenship of the majority of trade union
lists. To properly conduct" unions to
please the employers would make them
valueless to the workmen.
The employer claims the right to
conduct his own business and the union
insists upon the right to pass judg-
ment upon conditions under which the
work is done.

Sir MICHAEL HIcRs-BEAcH and Lord
GoscHEN. Nothing short Of O unani-
nous reputation OF Mr.. CHAMBER
LAIN's plans by his fellow Ministers and
his virtual expulsion from the Cabinet
which nobody expects to witness
can prevent the disorganization Of the
Unionists at the next general election,
which is not likely to be long deferred.
DISCRIMINATION is almost certain to
mean defeat, although the Liberals, in
their present disjointed condition. may
not be able to secure in the next House
OF Commons n working majority over
Unionists and Irish Nationalists COM
bIned. 1t il probable that again, as in
1855 and ever since they will find them
selves incapable of forming a durable
Government without Nationalist sup
port. To obtain that support, they
will pay the price. which will be Home
Rule.
The concession, therefore. OF legis-
lative independence to Ireland seems
to us imminent, if not inevitable, so far
Nor is there any reason to believe that
the House Of Lords would resist such a
project with it's former infexibility.
The Irish landlords were impregnably
intrenched in the upper house. but the
Irish landlords are on the verge of elimi-
nation. Having converted their estates
into money, they will cease to have any
personal motive for desperate oppo-
sition to Home Rule, but, on the con-
trary, will recognize the importance of
gaining the good will of the Irish peo-
Pile if they wish to continue TO reside
in Ireland
These are our reasons for believ ing
that never in hundred years has Ire
land been so near repeal Of the Act of
Union as she is today

Just two years ago the American Bar

that the once famous but now ,lnjustly
forgotten Mr.. LITrLEPIELD OF Mime began
his comet career Of temporary celebrity by
overruling the decisions Of the Supreme
Court in the insuar cases
II Mr., LITrLEFIELD had happened to be
the chairman of committee Of the Bar
Association, instead of mere member, he
might have put his severe censure of the
Supreme Court in the form Of committee
report and invited the a 'sociitiou TO take
formal action on the same, with view to
setting the ultimate tribunal right in the
performance OF its highest constitutional
function

Tho postnonsd Yacht Race.

Old Boroas evidently became weary
Of the continued sneering at America
Cup weather and set out ON Friday
to show what he could do. Those who
have been in the habit Of visiting the
Jersey coast summer resorts were not at
all surprised by the arrival of that ia
miliar cold storm which generally closes
"the season" with firmness and celebrity.
1t was most unfortunate that the storm
could not have been postponed till to-
morrow, but the weather department,
as all men have noted, recks not OF
dates nor OF days, not even Of holidays.
The yacht race was very properly
postponed, to the great dissatisfaction
OF curbstone seamen, whose nautical
lore is gathered from the bulletin boards.
The yachtsmen down in the Horseshoe
were berated roundly by these sapient
critics, who declared that they were
afraid to give their vessels a good trial
in stiff wind and rough sea.
The curbstone critics We're right,
The yachtsmen were afraid OF course
it is a stretch of courtesy to describe a
northeasterly gale off Sandy Hook as u
stiff wind: but no matter. The yachts
men were afraid that if they went out
they might ruin their sails. carry away
their masts and possibly batter in the
hullS of their craft for these vessels
are merely racing machines, not New
foundland sealers.
On such day as yesterday not even
the skipper Of four-masted ship would
go to sea il he could help it. and he
usually could. If the yachts had gone
out, they would have been under close
reefed canvas and probably could not
have worked to windward. But people
do not have to race yachts in storms,
even to escape the dersive comments of
those who in such weather do not like to
cross the North River in q ferryhoat.

Canada's Railway Project.

The Canadian Parliament is engaged
IN vigorous discussion of the Govern
ment project for a new transcontinental
railway. The Liberal press, or perhaps
we should say that portion Of the Liberal
press which stands by the Government
in its proposed measure, presents full
page reports of the arguments pre-
sented by the Liberal members The
Conservative press is equally profllse in
its presentation of the arguments of the
Opposition.
We have already reviewed the plan
Of the Government for an all-rail route

owned and all Government aided, to
cross the country we'll 10 the northward

that review the argument of the Oppo-
sition is confined largely to protest
against the construction of the eastern
end Of the line. Their position has now
taken on n more definite shape. and
while il is not yet precisely formulated,
its general terms appear as follows;
l. Inc use OF the present lne, the IntcrCOlOnla

the Government and has rcady cost Canada some
