There are a multitude OF women, es-
pecially housewives, and all other women
obliged to be on their feet constantly, who
are wretched beyond description, simply
because their strength and vitality issapped
away by catarrhal discharges from the
pelvic organs. These women get up in
the morning tired. drag themselves through
their daily duties tired. only to go to bed
al night as tired as before.

ALWAYS FIGHTING.

Don't always be ightin', but sometimes
combine!'' This sage advice. attributed to
st. Patrick. is evidently as much needed in
the Emerald Isle to-day as when Irelands
patron saint gave voice to it. The split in
the Irish Nationalist party between Red
mond and O'Brien on the one side and Dill
Ion, the Freeman's Journal and other Irish
leaders on the other over the attitude of the
party toward the new land act emphasizes
the peculiar trait in the Irish character
which has made individual Irishmen leaders
of men the world over and has at the same
time. prevented the possibility of an Irish
nation.
Always fighting has given the British
army such generals as Roberts and the hero
of Khartum and the British Parliament
a number of its greatest statesmen. 1t has
given the United States remarkably large
proportion of Irish names on it's rolls of
military and civic glory. 1t has given to
France and Russia not few of the greatest
men in their history and it has given to the
world at large many Of its most brilliant
soldiers Of fortune, but it has never given
Ireland anything but political chaos. With
the, most remarkable organizing ability the
world has ever known, as demonstrated
over and over again in American political
and Industrial affairs, Irishmen seem un-
able to organize anything but trouble in
ireland.
Out Of Ireland the always fighting" trait
makes the Irishman a persistent and sue
cessful struggler for power in the military,
political and commercial fields. In Ireland
it keeps him poor and paralyzes his aspira-
tions toward national existence, while such
a thing as national greatness is too remote
to dream of. Nobody has ever satisfac-
torily explained it. Your Irish leader can
lead other Irishmen in America or else
where easily enough, and he has no difficulty
in either leading followers or following
leaders of other blood, but whenever there
is an opportunity to accomplish anything
in or for Ireland there is the same failure
to agree that kills the whole thing.

standpoint Panama and Colon are the 18TH

,BRowBEATING CHINA.

1t turns out that the reoccupation of
Mukden by the Russians is justified on the
ground that the Chinese general in COM
mand of the territory had caused the de-
capitation of notorious brigand and thief
who had entered the Russian military serv-
ice; and because this service to humanity
was performed not only have the Russians
cally imprisoned the Chinese general.
1t is no new thing for one European ma
tion to browbeat and COW weaker nation,
but this action of Russia seems to go be-
yond the limit. Whether the Chinese knew
or did not know that the brigand had en-
tered the Russian service is not material.
They had no official notification of it, and
in their eyes he could be nothing more nor
less than a dangerous criminal, and they
dealt with him according to their law, as
they had perfect right to do. Yet it is
made the pretext for as stringent measures
as were taken upon the killing of Russian
consul in Macedonia by a Turkish soldier.
China is helpless and knows it, and Russia
knows it; hence the bulldozing, browbeat-
ing attitude of the Russian government.
Unless the civilized world is prepared to
see Russia absorb not merely Manchuria,
but practically all of China, it might better
step in now and withhold the Muscovite
hand than later on, for Russia will never
be satisfied until the throne of Kublai Khan
Is in vassalage to the Car. Nearly seven
hundred years ago the infant Russian ma
ton, with its seat at Kief, fell under the
devastating sword Of Genghis Khan, and
for two hundred years was held in vassal-
age to his successors, the great Kublai and
other rulers OF the Golden Horde Slowly,
steadily, relentlessly, the Russian power,
since its release from bondage, has pushed
the Mongol authority backward across the
continent of Asia until it has now pennee
1t up behind the remnant of the great wall.
1t will not stop there. of Russian volition.
1t will not stop at all until either the other
powers stay its hand or all of China is
gathered in.

FOREIGN-BORN CITIZENS AND THE
PRESIDENCY.

A correspondent of the Journal settles a
question raised by this paper as to the eligi-
bility of Mayor Mcclellan, of New York, for
the presidency in the negative. The point
was that as Mr.. Mcclellan was born in
Germany during a visit of his parents to
that country he might be ineligible under
the clause of the Constitution which says
zen of the United States. The correspondent
quotes decision to the effect that foreign
born children of American parents only be-
come citizens of the United States oy the
process of naturalization. That settles the
question as far as Mr. Mcclellan and the
presidency are concerned. 1t is probable the
rule would be different in the case of child
of American parents born on board of a
United States ship at sea, or in the legation
of United States minister abroad. us the
ship or the legation under the United States
flag would be practically American terri
the subject is as follows:
No person except a natural-born citizen, or
a citizen of the United States at the time of
eligible TO the office of President; neither
shall any person be eligible to that office
who shall not have attained the age of thir-
ty-five years and been fourteen years a
resident within the United States.
Under this provision foreigner who was
a citizen of the United States at the time of
the adoption of the Constitution would only
have been eligible to the presidency after he
had been a resident of the country fourteen
years. Even Baron Steuben or any of the
olutionary army and remained in the United
States could not have become President un-
til after a residence of fourteen years in
the country. Probably the only statesman
of that day who might possibly have prof
tied by the provision was Alexander Ham
ilton. who was born in the West Indies, and
not of American parents. either. Hamilton
was one of the greatest Americans and a
patriot of patriots, but under the provision
above quoted he would not have been eligible
to the presidency until fourteen years after
the Constitution was adopted. He came to
the United States to attend school in 1772,
when he was fifteen years old, and five years
later he had an important military COM
mand and was on Washington's staff He
had been resident of the country seven
teen years before the Constitution was
adopted, but not a resident of the United
States, which had TO legal existence until

Ralph to wonder what the secret Of such
devotion is. The failure to understand 1t,
or. at all events. to achieve it. also ac-
counts for much of the dissatisfaction and
unrest in labor circles. Too often the
worker gets ''mere wages" out of his occu-
patton and nothing more. The work itself
does not appeal to him or satisfy him,
and without knowing just what is wrong
he becomes restless and ready to join in
strikes or other movements to improve his
condition, movements that, if successful,
in one sense do not give him what he
really needs. Workingmen are themselves
to some degree responsible for this. Their
union rules give no scope for ambition or
the exercise OF the highest skill. All are
ment. and the rewards of labor that are
above and beyond the wages paid by their
employer-the supreme satisfaction of
doing their best for their own sake and
the works sake-is lacking and great
incentive thus taken out of life Newspa-
per work may have certain inherent pc
culiarities that give 1t especial charm, but
any work well done may afford it's own
share Of satisfaction apart from the mere
wages" involved. Money wages are ne
cessity, and in themselves serve as a
measure of achievement, but there must
needs be more than this if the worker is
to be content. If a man will he can find
pleasure in any honest thing his hands are
set to do, but when he is fortunate enough
to have for his life's occupation the thing
for which he is best adapted and which he
favored by fate and may well obey the
poets injunction to those who have found
their work-'Let him seek no greater
blessedness"

Nonunion Plumber Sues for Damage
for Being Deprived of Work.

Salt Lake Tribune.
A case of great importance to the labor
ing men. the employers and The public at
large was on trial yesterday before Judge
Hall in the District Court. II is entitled
Robert B. Harper VS.. Charles Sunbeck and
other members of the local union, No. 1s,
OF the United Association Of Journeymen
Plumbers, and it involves the liability OF
labor unions end the individual members
thereof for depriving nonunion men of the
opportunity TO work in the organized
trades.
Judge Hall held in his rulings yesterday
that unincorporated unions cannot be held
for the acts of individual members. and
that individual members cannot be held
for the acts OF the union-at least that 10
the construction put upon his decisions by
some OF the attorneys present. The doc
trine so far adhered to by the court Is that
every individual member OF the union must
be named in an action OF this kind I'm order
to reach the organization. yet there were
closely TO this theory of law. and IL will be
necessary TO await the findings OF the court

A TRIUMPH In PHILANTHROPY.

The annual report of the Charity Organi-
zation Society, published last week. con-
tains splendid lesson to sociologists in the
by means of proper organization and eff
cient, intelligent work, to completely con-
troll pauperism, mendicancy and similar
evils in a large city. This cannot be done
in q day, nor in a year, but that it is possi-
BILE to do it has been demonstrated in In
dianapolis. 1t means an organization di-
rected by men of sense and civic patriotism,
able to bring into harmonious cooperation
all the public and private agencies for the
relief of poverty and correction of crime,
and to build up such an organization and
win for it the absolute confidence that will
bring about such complete cooperation is
the work of years.
At any rate, it has been so here. During
the early stages Of the organization it re-
quired much publicity and agitation to Sc
cure the necessary funds, to convince the
people that it was working along precisely
the right lines, and to win the everyday and
matter-of-fact cooperation of all the vari-
Gus official agencies concerned, which is
very much better and more effective than
sporadic enthusiasm resulting in merely oc-
casional help Now it has come to pass
that the organization obtains all the money
it needs with comparative ease, through it's
ordinary appeals to private purses; that the
police administration, the Police Court, the
township and county agencies for poor re-
lief and the hospitals and asylums co-op-
crate in it's work as regular part of their
business and that all professional mendi-
cants and fakirs of various sorts compre-
hend that its work is so thorough that at
tempts at imposition are almost useless.
For some years now professional pauper-
ism has been practically unknown in this
dertook to drive professional mendicancy
from the streets, and it has done very
completely by providing work for those
that would accept it and obtaining the ar
rest of those that would not, while provid-
ing in the regular institutions for those
that could not AS a matter of course, it
develops that in this process many petty
criminals have been driven out or put to
work at honest occupations. Chronic pau
perism has decreased year by year until
now the Indianapolis Police Court is al
most clear of that class of pathetic cases so
common in all large cities, in which human
sympathy and stern justice are in direct
conflict.
Such work as that of the noble men and
women interested in and working for this
with the good one accomplishes therein,
surely they should be very happy people.

FUTURE OF PANAMA.

Whatever be the outcome of the revolu-
ton on the Isthmus of Panama. and how
ever much the United States may benefit
thereby. there is one aspect of the case
which has not received its need OF atten-
ton. and that is, the ultimate effect on the
people of the isthmus. A recent writer in
the North American Review touched on
this point. and IL his premises are correct
and they seem reasonable. and his deduc-
tions are just-the construction of the canal
will rebound to anything but the prosperity
of the new Republic of Panama. If this
be true, then the revolution. OF which so
much is expected in the matter of canal

throw any light on the reason or origin of

attempt was made TO remove it. Since the

a bar to any citizen of foreign birth aspiring
