AN ARsITRATlON LESSON.

d ECAUSE their union officials refused
ID to abide by an arbitration award.
the restaurant and hotel employees Of
Chicago refused to so out on strike
when ordered to do so. They were
backed up in their refusal by the other
unions affiliated with them, so that the
strike order proved a failure. The
employees recognized the injustice Of
striking after they had agreed to ar
bitratc. Thy knew that public senti-
ment, which was with them in a meas
Ure during their differences with the
employers. would not tolerate the union
ie it ignored an arbitration award after
it had contracted to accept that settle
ment
The result Of the Chicago strike is
exactly just The public, which is
generally fair. was with the anthracite
coal miners because they sought arbi-
tration; but II they had declined to
abide by the award they would have
lost forever the sympathy and support
which gained for them a hearing.
Strikes are essentially weapons Of
warfare. and their use in this day and
genera ton is recognized as barbaric,
just as is the lockout; but 90 strike.
win arbitration and then attempt to
defeat The award is as though one
sought a truce under a white flag and
then fired on the enemy while The white
flag still waved.
IL IS a hopeful sign for unionism and
for Industrial peace that the rank and
file Of the Chicago union ignored the
order which called for a violation or
their moral obligation TO the public
and their employers.

eRUDeINe oREDIT 70 MILEs

p ELUCTANT credit is being given
N General Miles in some quarters
for his early advocacy of the principle
of national irrigation. We arc told
with due sOlemnity that if General
Miles had not dipped into politics he
would receive greater credit for his ir
rigution theories, theories that were adj
vanced in an article published thirteen
years ago in the North American Re
view. We confess a difficulty i'm un-
derstanding why credit, when due.
should be withheld from any man be-
cause he has interested himself in pol
tics
Nothing could be pettier than a
grqdging acknowledgment of the
services Of an individual. coupled with
the statement, in effect. that if he
agreed With the writer or speaker on
all SUBJECTS he would be given full
credit for his achievements. Now let
us see what an irrigation authority
says about General Miles Senator
Francis G. Newlands Of Nevaca has for
years been a Jealous advocate Of the
theory that the government should
build and maintain great irrigation
works. for the reclamation of the arid
and semi-arid west. As q congressman
Senator Newlands certainly did as
much as any other man to secure the
passage OF the national irrigation law.
During the course Of his speech i'm
the house in advocacy of the then
pending legislation, Mr.. NewIGnds re-
ferred 10 the paper written by General
Miles for the Review in these words:
"This article-broad, comprehensive
and statesmanlike-cover all the
phases of the irrigation question. and
presents every consideration that
should appeal 10 enlightened Iegisla-
ton. No speech in the senate or i'm
the house could present the question
in a more intelligent. thorough and at
tractive way. and 1 shall republish this.
not only because it presents the views
of a man OF distinction. who, not con-
tent with prominence in the art OF war,
has also trained himself in the arts
OF peace and in those great construc-
tive policies which mean the upbuild-
ing Of a nation, but also because this
article. printed in 1890. indicates that
the question was thoroughly understood
twelve years ago.
There is a generously fair statement.
Mr.. Newlands has been called. and with
some justice. the father of the national
irrigation bill Nothing bur spirit Of
justice impelled him to give credit 10
General Miles. II he had said nothing
about the Review article he could not
have been accused Of trying 10 with
hold praise from General Miles. But
he did say something. and because he
did Mr.. Newlands is entitled to the
appreciation Of all lovers Of fair play
The Herald hopes it will be possible
10 secure the attendance of General
Miles at the eleventh session Of the
National Irrigation congress in Ogden
next month. We feel sure that if he
can be persuaded to come he will be
accorded every honor to which his dis
tinguished services entitle him.

ST0DDARO
WENT BACK
TO N0RW W|CH
Charge Against Him Is the
Larceny Of Stocks and Bonds
Valued at S32,061.

Abbott J. Stoddard. who was arrested
Thursday by local detectives and held
for the arrival OF Connecticut officers,
returned to Norwich yesterday on the
l1;07 train in custody OF Officer Hazel
hurst OF that city.
1t was expected that the prisoner would
fight extradition. but he decided to waive
and returned quietly with the Connecticut
officer.
Stoddard was taken into custody
Thursday by Detectives Nickerson and
O'Malley of headquarters and taken to
the Central station, where he was locked
UP I'm a cell I'm the women's quarters.
Yesterday morning the prisoner was
brought before Judge Sweetland In the
Sixth district court. and was represented
by Attorney +. p. Owen, who caused n
stir by saying In court: 'I do not care
10 take charge OF such case. This
man has changed his mind about 100
times during the night. but I guess he Is
now willing to go back TO Connecticut.
We don't like to take such cases as
these"
stoddard told the court that he was
not guilty OF the charges made against
him by the authorities OF the adjoining
state, but Judge Sweet1and told him that
he must make up his mind as 10 what he
wanted to do. After some explanations
were made to the prisoner he decided
that he would accompany the officer
from Norwich without extradition, and
he was turned over to Mr.. Hezelhurst.
Stoddard is charged with the larceny
OF Stocks and bonds TO the value OF
SS2. .0s1. which were the property OF three
old ladies with whom Stoddard lived
for some years, but who are now all
dead Stoddard claims that the bonds
were presented to him by the owners. but
the police OF Norwich claim 10 have evil
dence sufficiently strong to convict him
OF the crime charged.
Stoddard has the property In question
on deposit at the Industrial Trust COM
pany and he has given an order on that
institution for the bonds, which will be
turned over to officer Hazelhurst, who
will return to Providence TO collect more
evidence, after he has his prisoner under
lock and key.
