OPENING CHINESE PORTS.

The days news of Manchurian affairs is au-
spicious. 1t indicates that American diplomacy
has added one more to the admirable series of
/ victories it has won in that quarter of the
globe We stated some time ago that an excel
lent commercial treaty had been concluded
with China, all but the portion Of it relating to
the opening Of new ports in Manchuria. The
United States wanted at least two new ports,
and China was willing to open them, but was
restrained from doing so by some external in
fuence, which, it was generally assumed was
the Russian Government Now II is announced
that that adverse influence is withdrawn Rus
sa has given assurances that she Will not in
any way oppose the opening OF those ports and
accordingly, China will open them in the near
future
Such a consummation will be highly crafty
ing from the diplomatic and from the CONNER
cial point Of view. 1t will remove a some
what serious possibility of strained relations
between the United States and the other coun-
tries concerned. For there can be no doubt
that Chinas persistent refusal to open her ports
to our commerce would have created an un-
pleasant impression in this country and 1t
would have been no less unpleasant to know
that she did so at Russia's dictation. Russia's
friendly assurances and China's compliance
will go far toward making the American out
look serene ID Lnat region. Inc commerclal
benefits will be commensurately large. Man
churia is one of the most important parts
Of the Chinese Empire for trade, and it is the
part in which the United States especially is
most interested. These new ports will enable
American enterprise to extend more fully
throughout those rich provinces, to the mutual
advantage of both nations. OF course while it
is the United States that secures the opening of
these ports, they will be opened not only to us,
but to all nations of the world. On equal terms,
so that our treaty viii benefit our neighbors
and rivals as we'll as ourselves. II is simply a
further extended application Of the established
American policy of the open door
New-York tribune., 1903-07-17

ist rule would mean the spoliation of capital.
III. Rouvier, one of the most skilful Of modern
Finance Ministers, has proposed an income tax
levied at an equal rate on all incomes above
certain figure. That is equitable and not unac-
ceptable to France But the Socialists are
clamoring against it and are demanding pro
gressive" income tax, Of which the rate shall in
crease as incomes increase, until it shall practi-
cally confscate all incomes above certain
figure There is little doubt that the Socialists
would enact such a tax law If they had the
power to do so. Besides there is the long estab-
lshed Socialist demand for the abolition or re-
pudiation Of the national debt which would
reduce the value of rentes to that of waste
paper. These are the reasons why the prices of
State securities In France are going down 1t is
an instructive illustration of the effect Of even
the remote fear of socialism upon one of the
most thrifty peoples In the world.
New-York tribune., 1903-07-17
STRIKES AND THE COMMON LAW

The injunction against the Rochester Ma
chinists' Lodge just made permanent by JUS
tice Nash, of the Supreme Court is certain to
attract much attention. 1t does not profess to
declare any new principle Of law. On the con-
trary, II turns to old principles which many
have supposed to be obsolete. and by applying
them to new situations has declared to be the
law of the State something which must to many
seem startling innovation. What the Appel
late Division or the Court of Appeals may do
with this decision is of course problematic, but
Justice Nash is known as an able and clear
headed lawyer. and his opinion will carry
great weight
The case before Justice Nash arose from the
strike of the Machinists' Lodge against the w
I'll. Davis Machine Company. No question Of
wages was involved. The company paid the full
union scale, but refused at the demand of the
union to agree to employ nobody but members
Of the union and to discard the premium sys-
TEN in its factory. Justice Nash comedies that
under the Penal Code employees have right to
combine to force an advance in wages or main
tain an established rate, though how far they
may carry that combination and what means
they may take to coerce or annoy an employer
have not yet been clearly defined. The sup
posed liberty of combination has recently been
conditioned by the law forbiddng any obstruc-
ton or annoyance of a person in his business
because Of his connection with the National
Guard, Now Justice Nash hints that, except as
modified to permit wage strikes, the old COM
mon law governing employment may still be in
force, and he says:
1t seems that the common law right of ac-
ton for enticing away from the master a SER
want or employe has not been taken away un-
less possibly for the purpose of obtaining an
advance in or maintaining a rate of wages.
Hence, when the rights of the master are un-
lawfully interfered with, and there is not
adequate remedy at law, equity will take juris-
diction by injunction.
Therefore he made permanent temporary
injunction in such form as to prohibit union
pickets from speaking to non-union employees
ton of the power of injunction. but if the com
mon law still is in force prohibiting any at
tempt TO entce an emplOye from his employ
ment, it is apparently not merely proper, but
absolutely necessary. Labor unionists and
even employers, however, have long acted on
the theory that the common law was in this
respect superseded and that workmen, as long
as they abstained from actual violence could
by all means Of moral suasion endeavor to de-
stroy the business of an employer who in any
way however trivial, displeased them. The
rule laid down by Justice Nash would go far
to restore to business men the control Of the
details Of their own business. however much
it may be thought to restrict the asserted right
of workmen to combine TO extort any boon
which may seem good to them, whether it be
higher wages, or peculiar cut Of the beard Of
their foreman, or the use of a union label on
the cloak of their employers wife.

THE AGE LIMIT.

The people who are opposed to the arbitrary
retirement law. which places an officer on the
retired list when he has reached the age Of
sixty-four years, will find a potent argument
against the measure in the recent performance Of
General Miles The lieutenant general rode on
horseback from Fort Sill to Fort Reno, a dis
tance of ninety miles. in about nine hours He
enjoyed the experience and his good condition
when the ride was over was sufficient to con-
vince his friends. if they had any doubt on the
subject, that he was still a robust man and
amply qualified to do a soldiers duty He will
be sixty-four years old on August s. and will
then despite his vigor, follow SchofieId. How
ard, Merritt, Brooke, Otis and many other COM
rades into retirement and make room for
younger men,
The law which makes the retirement compuI-
sorry is undoubtedly a good one. and its opera
ton is conducive to the best interests of the
service. But it is not strange that exceptional
cases like that Of General Miles should MAKE
some people doubt its justice The only general
officer who will be retired this year besides
General Miles, General George w. Davis, will
have reached the age limit few days before

IN DOUBLE HARNESS.

Why doesn't Parks, professional walking
delegate, shake the dust of ungrateful Gotham
from off the soles of his feet? Why should he
not join the notorious Debs? The two are kim
dred souls. The bond Of brotherhood between
them might become as close and binding as was
that which coupled the Dioscuri, Castor and
Pollux, sons Of Jupiter, whose praises were
chanted in the lays of ancient Rome as the
Great Twin Brethren. And think of the fra
ternal chain Of sympathy and friendship which
kept David and Jonathan so affectionately en-
twined, although they were not brothers in
blood! Then, too. they might recall to mind the
unselfsh devotion which clasped Damon and
Pythias so tenderly together
Parks and Debs would be Siamese half-and-
half in stirring up troubles among wage earn
ers. What an Incompatible pair they would be
in double harness
New-York tribune., 1903-07-17
THE YELLOW FEKER GERM

That which constitutes the chief feature of
the Marine Hospital Service report on yellow
fever, made after study of that disease bv n
special commission in Vera Cruz. is its state
ment regarding the probable cause of the dis
ease. 1t is asserted that no definite signs Of q
germ were found IN human subjects but that
a parasite was observed in mosquitoes which
had been infected by biting patients This or
ganism, which is credited to the animal king
dom, has apparently been found in all the diff
ferent stages OF its development in the bodies
of those insects.
While these declarations will probably not be
accepted as final, they are in closer accord with
the opinions of other experts than were earlier
utterances of Marine Hospital Service nhvsi-
clans. Two OF the latter after a visit to Ha-
vana in 1898 practically confirmed SanareIlis
discovery Of Il bacillus to which yellow fever
was held to be attributable SimuItaneousIx,
the medical department of the United States
Army dlscredited the reality, or at least the in
nuence, OF such an organism as that which the
Italian described. The late Major Walter Reed
did, to be sure, mention seeing small. sluggish
objects resembling amRb9 land hence uyingl
in the blood of patients but they were not ba-
GILL, and, as he could find them in healthy nor.
sons as WELL he was much in doubt as to their
relation TO the disease. He was ready to affirm
that mosquitoes conveyed the fever from one
man to another, but he hesitated to saw how
they were able to do SO. Possibly when the
organism observed by the Marine Hospital Ser
vice Commission last summer is compared with
Major Reeds, they will not turn out 10 he
identical. Again, Major Reed observed his sus
pect in the blood Of patients. while the visitors
10 Vera Cruz are not willing to declare that
they did. Both agree, however, in describing a
protozoan, or animal. parasite
From these circumstances and others which
might be mentioned it is excusable 10 Doubt
whether the real germ of yellow fever has vet
been detected. 1t may be too small to be identi-
hed readily Such an explanation was once adj
vanced TO account for the failure to find a germ
OF cancer. although that disorder seemed tn ha
contagious. Here for instance is a suggestive
incident, reported by army surgeons in Wash.
lngton. The blood of yellow fever patients hot
tied in Cuba, was brought 10 the United States
ana put through Pasteur filter The grain of
the porcelain in that article was So fine that il
would stop corpuscles and all bacu that have
thus Tar been recognized. Subsequently, tvro
persons were inocClated. the first with tho cor
puscies and other solid residuum, and tbe sac-
ohd with the filtered fluid. 1t is affirmed that

The open air part of the ceremonial was IN charge
OF V. J. Rupert, lawyer of this city In his
presence the bride and bridegroom made declara-

love. honor, protect and abide by each other This
declaration was made by each separately and then
by both in concert The bridal party then entered

the former showed no i'll effects, but that the
latter developed the fever!
While the case for Major Reeds ameba is
not a strong one, and his caution in putting
any responsibility upon it is praiseworthy. 1t
is possible to reconcile the apparently conflict
ing testimony which he furnished. 1t is well
known that the germs of malaria abound in the
blood OF persons who exhibit no other symp-
toms Of the disease. Thousands of people carry
the bacilh of the grip in their nasal passages
without succumbing. 1t is conceivable that
the healthy individuals in whom Major Reed
found suspicious objects may have been i'm
mune. and that the latter really were sources
Of danger In like manner seeming inconsist-
encies in the findings of the Marine Hospital
Service Commission may yet be cleared up If
the conclusions of that body are not as full as
could be wished, they may nevertheless afford
q useful clew
