NEW YORK REPUBLICANS
odell Active Manager, But Has Friendly Relations with Platt.

Against Chairman Dunn's statement made after last nights White House din- ner that the matter of putting the Re- publican machine in New Yo.k State more completely into Governor OdelPs hands was not discussed is now put the authoritative announcement of the most Important man at the conference, that a tacit agreement has been made by which Governor Oden will be the active manager in affairs, hereafter. and Sena- tor Platt merely the fgurehead.
 It is possible that nothing was said about 1t at the White House dinner last
 night. The fact is that the dinner was
 merely a perfunctory affair, the real
 work of the conference having been ac- complished earlier in the day when Gov ernor Odell saw the President alone and later at night just before his train left, and after the Presidents other guests | had gone to bed.
 | Senator Platt has insisted all along, and even repeated his assurance this
 morning. that there is no friction be- tween himself and Governor Odell, but the fact that Odell and the President fixed up their plans both before and after the formal dinner at the White House last night indicates that the President and the Governor are going ahead on their own hook without paying too much at tention to the wishes of the Senator who they think is not strong enough to bear the brunt of the work as leader. If he indorses their plan ,all right; if not, they will go ahead with 1t just the same There is authority for the statement that this is the way President Roosevelt under- stands the situation.

APACHE OUTBREAK.
Threaten to Go on Warpath Because
 of the Death of Two Boys at Indian chool.

Washington dispatch.
 Because an Indian boy died from eat ing prunes that he had stolen from the kitchen and a second boy happened to die shortly after taking bath at the Government Indian School at Dulce, N. M, 1000 Jacarilla-Apache Indians were reported to be preparing to go on the warpath. This news came to Commits sioner of Indian Affairs Jones last night and the condition was considered so seri- ous that aid from the War Department was though necessary.
 The school at Dulce has been establish ed only a month, and the Jacarilla- Apaches are uncivilized and superstitious and they considered the death of the two boys to have been "conjured" by the school officers. They threatened to kill tho officers and spoil the educational plans of the bureau. Indian Agent John son Nt Dulce was ordered by the Depart ment to use every means u quell the trouble, and In telegram today he says conditions are much improved. The fol- lowing is his despatch:
 "IndianS very uneasy, but situation is improving, Unless something new oc- CUTS believe l can pacify them ln coun- cil called for Saturday. Sayles must go elsewhere immediately. What can you offer him? Can Mrs. Sayles be pro- vided for at same placeT'

 ternational Socialist Review, published at Chicago, in which are marked for our special consideration three articles on the negro question. The first of these is by the now obscure labor agltator, Eugene V. Debs. and its purport Is indicated in the declaration that Socialists should with pride proclaim their sympathy with and fealty to the black race, and if any selves in the face of ignorant and un- reason reasoning w prejudice, they lack the true snIrit of the slavery destroying revolu- tionary movement" The inference of the second clause is that all Socialists do not negroes The two other articles on the subject are to the same general effect, and in them also so earnest an effort is made to overcome prejudice, agtnst tn, the ence of the hostile cling among the Socialists seems to be made evident.

ANOTHER ARoRT1vF PLAN.

Many plans and many methods are pro- posed for the prevention or settlement of strikes and labor differences, and we have just noticed one by MT. Bailey of Me- riden, Conn.,, for which a prize was awarded by some New England society. After promising that opportunity should be given to employers and employees to settle their differences in their own way, MT. Bailey maintains that the remedy and Federal, and suggests the follow ing:
 "Establish a system of courts, one system to be established by the State. and the judges to be elected by the people; an- other system, with corresponding juris- diction, to be established by the Federal by the President, with the consent of the Senate. These State courts may be called The Industrial Court; The Industrial Court of Appeals; The Industrial Supreme Court To the other series may be pre- fixed the word Federal in each case. These courts shall have full jurisdiction | in every case in which industrial prob lems are involved, and which cannot be l tried in the civil courts. Full liberty shall
 be given in the presenting of evidence, | and no evidence which may have a bear | ing on the case in hand shall be ruled out | on technical grounds.
 | "In rend sring a decision, the court shall 1 first strive to suggest adjustments of diff | ferences that the decision of the court
 shall be satisfactory to both, or all, par | ties concerned, and may be voluntarily | accepted by them. But in case of failure 1 in such arbitration the decision of the court shall be according to the facts and shall be final, subject only to appeal from lower to higher courts. And such appeal l,a Iorn nf nfan nrtAC l to a higher court of the other series. or of the same series, as the appellant may | elect"
 We cannot say that we are by any means enamored with this suggested mode of adjusting labor troubles. In the first place we do not take kindly to the idea of going to the courts for the settlement of matters which individuals ought to set- tie for themselves, nor do we favor this mixing of State and Federal jurisdiction in matters of this kind. The whole plan is suggestive of cumbersome and expen- sive lawsuits every time a difference arises between employer and employe, and in our opinion there would be no end of litigation in the industrial world. But a more pointed objection to the Bailey plan is that it seems to entirely overlook all ideas of personal liberty of action or thought. There is no provision, so far as we see, for allowing the con tending parties to make and enforce such contracts as they may agree on. In oth- CT words, under what interpretation of our system of government can a court
 force an employer of labor to engage men at certain wages? Or how can it force
 the working man to accept a job he

SATURDAY NOVEMBER as, 1908
AN IMPOSSIBLE REQUIREMENT

The demand of President Mitchell that our Government shall employ only Amer ican labor-unionized labor, of course-in building the Panama Canal, is early on the boards. It is not yet known that any canal will be constructed, but the unions are in a hurry to get in their work, and naturally the demand partakes of the usual spirit of dictatorial intolerance so often manifested by leaders of the union labor movement. To demand that our Government shall unionize the canal, If one is constructed, is absurd, for no such partiality could be shown, nor do we be- lieve the Government could enforce such a provision and we know it ought not to do it. If the work is done there will be many contractors and the labor should be free in fact as we'll as in name. it would be neither if the demands of the American Federation of Labor should be acceded to.
 But there is another consideration which makes this demand inadvisable. aside from it's manifest injustice. It Is we'll un- derstood, both by the advocates and oppo- nents of the Panama route, that the re- zion to be traversed by the canal is ex- ceedingly unhealthy for white people of all Northern or temperate regions. When the Isthmian railway was built we know lt was a common saying that laborer died for every crosstie that was laid, and the French had an ample taste of the deathly nature of the region during their experience at canal digging. It is grave yard for white men who are not accus- toned to such a climate.
 These being the facts, for they are facts. it is plain that there cannot be much unionized American labor used in the construction of the canal. The only Americans wLo would stand any chance fin that climate would be the negroes "f the extreme Southern States, and we arc not sure that 1t would be safe for them Admitting all that is claimed for Panama as the best route for a canal it is pla.n that the principal portion of the work must be done by laborers, white or col- ored, who are habituated to hot, moist and unhealthy climate. Unionized Ameri- can labor will have little show in 1t un- less means can be found to improve the known conditions existing there, or un- less some way. can be discovered by which white men from the States can be rend- cred immune against the deadly climate. If either can be done our white people can do much of the work, but even Tn that case it is absurd to suppose that our Government would employ only union la- bor. That would be degree of partiality and injustice of which no sensible Gov ernment could be guilty. But the de- mand expressed by Mitchell shows to what lengths the union habit can carry men

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW
RETAIL TRADE STIMULATED BY
 THE WEATHER.
Thouands of Workmen are Idle, But the Labor Leaders are Show ing Spirit of Concila-
 tion

New York. Nov. N.-R. c. Dun and Company's review of trade tomorro" VIII say:
 Reasonable temperature and holiday purchases stimulated retail trade, making results more satisfactory during the past week than at any recent date. improve ment was most conspicuous m neeVy wearing apparel and kindicd lines ma. have remained dull because of the mild weather Another encouraging feature was the resumption of work at New fork mills although there is sllll mucn lois machinery, especially in the textile and iron industries. Thousands of operatives are idle because of the shut down at few of the paper mills. In v.ew or the numerous wage reductions there Is note- worthy harmony between emp oyes and workers indicating that labor leaders ap- preciate the necessity of sharing In the readjustment. Grain shipments increased on the lakes and freight traffic was sub jected to the greatest pressure of the sea- son. But there is less than the custom ary complaint of delay. Railway earn averaged 5.2 per cent larger than last year. It is at least possible to perceive an improvement In the demand for pig iron due to the exhaustion of supplies of consumers, the extensive reduction in output and absence of further price con sessions. Business Is by no means bri k nor Is there any expectation or who e. some activity during the remaining weeks turning confidence with the lapse of time. Makers of structural shapes are also looking forward to a resumption of build. ing operations that were demoralized and discontinued because of contentious be- tween employers and wage earners.
 Textile manufacturing conditions are without alteration. Colder weather stim- ulated retail trade in woolens and wors- teds, but as yet there is no improvement In piece goods.
 Despite some conservatism among shoe buyers there is brisk demand for brisk delivery and requirements are unquesti on- ably large. In the leather market there Is an increased demand for hemlock sole. ooth on nome and export orders.

 There have been few public dinners in Atlanta in recent years at which these men have not been speakers, and while there has been no intimation that they failed to come up to expectations or that they ever wearied any of their hearers. still there was a desire on the part of the business men to attend at least one affair at which these were nothing but listeners. 1t was an unusual experience for the men.
