The government and the uninn

The Government and the Union.
From the Phila. Public Ledger.
The Presidents letter TO Secretary
Cortelyou' directing the reinstatement
OF man who had been discharged
from the Government Printing Office
because he had lost membership in his
uaue union, asserts the only position
Whlch II Is possible for a public official
TO maintain with reference to combi-
nations OF labor He quotes the iudg-
ment and award of the Anthracite
commission, that no person shall be re-
FUSED employment or I'm any way dis
criminated against on account of mem-
bership or nonmembership in a labor Or
sanization, and II this be a rule for
those working for private employers.
mere elementary decencyr requires
that Government Offices shall be con-
trolled by the same principle.
Any reasonable union man must ac-
knowledge the justice of this declara-
tion. There Is no objection. as the
President observes. to the employees OF
the Government Printing Office consti-
tuting themselves into a union. If they
so desire. but no rules or resolutions
OF their union can be permitted to
override the laws OF the United States.
under which all OF these men are em-
ployed. In the present instance, an as
sistant foreman in the bindery incur
red the displeasure Of his local union,
which passed a resolution expeling
him from membership and demanding
his dismissal by the Public Printer,
who weakly acquiesced although the
man was accused of no dereliction Of
public duty This unwarrantable and
unlawful act the President has re-
versed, and I'm so doing has asserted
both the dignity Of the Government
and the liberty OF the individual work
man.

The enemies Of General Leonard
Wood have another grievance. As he
is about taking up the military COM
mand of Mindanao, the Philippine
Commission has appointed him civil
Governor also OF the island. He Will
exercise practically autocratic powers
I'm the Land OF the Moros, having con-
troll. not only OF the regular military
forces In the island. but likewise of the
constabulary and municipal police. and
the power TO appoint and remove at
pleasure civil officers OF every grade
from governor down. The Philippine
Commission is evidently determined to
give the turbulent Moros the only sort
of government which they can under
stand and will respect, but the an
nouncement of this intention will not
be received by the anti-Americans on
this side of the globe with entire APP
prevail since it is utterly destructive
OF the cherished principle Of the CON
sent OF the governed and Is further
aggravated by the declared purpose OF
the President to promote this favored
satrap-who, by the way, is "mer,

Another day of the magnificent legal
battle over bail for Ernest Haywood.
The defense yesterday. after bringing
cut more direct evidence of eye-wit-
nesses. Mr.. Charles B. Hocutt and Ned
Barnes. then tried to show by the Coro-
ner's testimony that MI. SINNERS arm
was drawn around when the bullet en-
tered the body: first because the wound
could not be probed. the muscles and skin
covering the hole in the chest cavity.
and second because of bullet holes in the
lapel of the overcoat. which would fall
over the holes in coat and vest when the
overcoat is drawn back.
Then by the evidence of others they
endeayored to prove that Haywood's hat
