4 wild and whirling report that there are now
three hundred poolrooms in full operation In
New-York is grOtesque in the extreme Not
many running races Of genuine importance or
widespread popularity are now IN progress in
any part of the country, and three hundred pool
rooms within the limits of this town could not
make money enough to pay rentals and cur
rent expenses. The denials at Police Headduar-
ters of this preposterous rumor are unquestion-
ably truthful.
No doubt there is a great deal Of quiet gam
bling Of one kind another within the areas
Of the various borough of this huge community;
but three hundred poolrooms now busy-non-
sense!
BY the way. Chicago is taking measures to
drive away the handbook" Iawbreakers. New
York might do worse than TO follow that excel

reafirmed by him, that when MIR. Skinner was
a candidate for reelection three years ago con-
tributions TO his campaign expenses were solic-
tied from the eleven normal school principals
of the State, and that he actually collected
from nine of them about $4,000 Of the $1,000
which, as public officer with salary of $1,000,
he subscribed to the Republican campaign fund
that year.
Early in the summer Mr. Skinner eagerly
seized a chance to deny an imaginary accusa-
ton that he had collected money for use In last
winters legislative controversy over school
matters, but he has kept absolute silence as to
the actual charge responsibly flung in his face
by Mr.. Bardeen. That is an attitude which he
cannot afford to maintain or the Republican
party to tolerate. If he is to be candidate for
reelection ut the coming session Of the legis-
lature he must speak in advance on this sub
ject and speak to the point.

UNDER RHTCH LAWf

Before the critics Of the governments policy
IN Panama become too strenuous In their de-
nunclations they will do well to determine
under which law they will ndict 1t of high
crimes and misdemeanors. Will it be the lit
eral law of an existing treaty or the unwritten
law Of natural right aud the interest Of civiliza-
ton? At present they seem TO be making ap-
peal now to the one and now to the other and
again repudiadng now the one and now the
other, according to the apparent exigencies OF
their case.
Thus 1t is pointed out that the written law
of the treaty of 1916 explicitly empowers and
binds the United States to keep isthmian tran
sit free and unobstructed, and therefore the
United States is justified in preventing the use
of the railroad for military purposes. Oh, says
the critic, but there is higher law Of natural
right. under which, treaty or no treaty, Coiom-
bia may use her own railroad for the main
tenance Of her own sovereignty. Very WELL
then, replies the advocate of the governments
policy; we have also under the higher law
of the interests Of civilization a right to say
that the worlds commerce from sea to sea shall
not be obstructed or ieopardzed by these inter
minable Instructions. To which the critic,
turning to the letter of the treaty, Shylock-like,
responds, ii cannot find 1t; It's not in the
bond"
Under which law is the Indictment to be
framed?

A WARNING FROM PARKS.

sSarn" Parkss valedctory on entering Sing
Sing for the second time was 4 practical con
fession Of all that has been charged about cor
ruption in the building trades. He issues sol
enn warning to labor unionists Of the future
20 avoid the methods of extOTtiOn which have
brought him to his present position. He wants
them to know that the salvation Of the unions
Les IN stopping the practice Of having money
transactions with employers. No man knows
the inner meaning and remote effect Of such
transactions better than sam" Parks. and
when be SAYS that the unions must give up
fines waiting tine. back pay for strikes aud
Everything like that because they are ''the
s1oopbole through which this grating as they
"can II, creeps H." be unquesuonably puts his
finger on the right spot These payments are
ut once the vehicle for eKtortion by dishonest
walking delegates and for oppression Of con-
tractors by Inscriptions rivals They open the
door Of temptation to the labor representatives
and prepare the way to the sacrifice Of the In
terests Of laboring men themselves TO the greed
Of their leaders.
The situation described by Parks corresponds
exactly 70 that IN Chicago described by Ray
Stannard Baker. who found a knot Of employers
and labor leaders in a conspiracy TO defraud the
public and all employers and employees not IN
their combination. Recently similar revelations
were made about q bidding conspiracy among
some contractors in Brooklyn. Parks says:
fright here in New-York City is the crookedest
set OF men in the wOrld-the employers in the
sbuSlcing trades. Why, ] could name
sfor Won one hundred employers Of New-York
scitv-by that mean the big companies as
awell-who have made practice Of using labor
s.1pions against competitors" Parks feels that
fhe labor leaders are not "grafters" at heart.
Perhaps recalling his own experience, be says
the employer holds out TO young man a roll
Of bills bigger than be ever saw before, and
tells him to be friendly. The next step is TO
have q rival employer blackEsted OF troubled.
Money comes easy for such service. and the
man. before be knows IL is embarked on Grim

81 sbaaowy difference between what he has been

rlovers and the Ievies exacted in the service

uloyers who promote this grating system are
t-nrnupe from punishment, but they need not

r7,rtion and want reform are ready to aid in
bringing them 20 Justice. Parks himself could
So1btless render valuable service to the State
and 20 the laboriBg men by exposing some OF
,beu. II he could put the District Attorney In
sbe vvav Of evidence 10 convict these employers,
who II what be says is true are much more

OLE LN1EREST IN MANCRURIA.

1t would be difficult not to sympathize with

ure of Moukden So far as the world has been
informed and is able TO judge that seizure
seems to be a pretty fagrant bit of oppression.
performed with a cynicism TO which Russian
conquerors are by no means strangers. Russia
should at this moment be completing her en-
fire evacuation of China. Instead, under pre-
text created by an agent provocateur, she is
reOccupying those places which she did evac-
uate-notabIy the Holy City of Manchuria the
control of which is little short of suzerainty
over the reigning dynasty of the Chinese EN-
pire. There is, of course, no reason to be sur
prised. Few if any, judicious observers have
ever expected Russia to keep her promise In re-
spect to the evacuation of Manchuria.
But while 1t would be difficult to withhold
sympathy from China in tb's -oo+'",I spolia-
ton Of her territory, 1t would also be difficult
to define adequate grounds for giving her any
thing more than sympathy. The United States
does not seem to be entitled to intervene, or to
demonstrate with Russia The matter at issue
lies for the present between China and Russia.
Nobody else is concerned IN 1t. The promise of
evacuation was made by Russia to China. Il
was not made to America If it had been,
America could now insist upon its fulilment
But it was made to China alone and China
alone has the right to call upon Russia to re-
deem it.
American interest In Manchuria Is CONNER
cial not political. 1t does not essentially mat
ter TO this country who governs Manchuria, 80
long as Americans enjoy there the same free
dom of trade that is enjoyed by the citizens or
subjects of the most favored nation. China has
promised such freedom, and we shall in
sst upon fuiflment of the promise. Russia,
hos
tain the "Open door in China, and we shall
expect her to fulfil that promise. 1t is not the
province Of America to look after the fulfill
ment of promises between other powers but TO
see TO it that all promises made TO this country
are kept Doubtless America would rather see
China than Russia in possession of Manchuria.
But it Is not entitled now to expel Russia from
those provinces AS long as the promises made
TO America by China and Russia are fulfilled,
America seems to have no cause for action If
those promises should be broken by either China
or Russia, in the closing of ports against us or
in the making Of determinations against us
there would be cause for action, and the Wash
ington government would doubtless be heard
from promptly and with effect Until such time
comes, a policy of watchfulness seems to be all
that is required.
