Olorifying a Criminal.

When the International Association of Bridge and Structural Iron Work CTS decided to admit Sam Parks and other delegates from the Parks union Of New York, action was taken on {, subject which concerns nobody direct ly but the members of the associa- tion of course. It was their privilege to do as they pleased in the matter or admitting Parks to fellowship. But all we'll balanced friends of the working man will regret that the Kansas City convention chose to place this stigma hero of Parks the association was giorifying a noted felon and notor- ious grafter-a creature who time and again has subjected the union he rep resents to public contempt-the one man who has gained national reputa- ton during the past few months by bringing an important branch of or ganized labor into disrepute. After Parks was released from the New York penitentiary on bail pending an appeal from his conviction. the excuse made by the New York union for marching with him at their head on Labor day was that they didn't pro- pose to desert him while he was down" If the Kansas City convention had no better reason for admitting the fellow. a maudlin sentiment was permitted to supersede all concern for the real wei fare of organized labor.
 The story of Parks career is now too familiar for it to be said in apology for his defenders that they did not knew who and what he was. Upon only one of many indictments brought against him he was tried convicted and sentenced to the penitentiary for the crime of extortion-extorting or threat ening to extort money from employers as the price of his order calling strike off. All this was we'll known and it was known, furthermore, that no man in the year 1903 has been able to hold so many skilled workmen in idleness as he-an idleness which meant suffering to thousands of inno- cent families in New York. In addi- tion to this. the mans past for many years had been made public. It had been disclosed that in his career in the west as well as in New York he has been a professional agitator with a keen eye to his personal profit. It had been shown by the New York news papers that lon the paltry salary of a walking delegate, Parks lived in a fine apartment house, wore diamonds on his fingers and in his shirt front, paid $1,- 900 for sealskin coat, rode to the meetings of his unions in a cab. and kept a bank account of s35, ,OOO," the fruit of his thrifty graft.
 That Parks is a man of more than ordinary force must be admitted when 1t is seen that he is able to walk into the meetings of his dupes, and as the only explanation of the proofs of his betrayal of their interests, scream. "It s all lie of the newspapers" The dens- ity of workingmen who accept such explanations is. however, a subject for melancholy reflection

General Grant for the Canteen.

General Frederick D. Grant, com mander of the department of Texas, adds his voice in favor Of the restora- tion of the army canteen. He argues that it IS absurd to make restrictions which deprive the soldier of all relaxa- tion and expect him to observe them If he cannot obtain the beers and light wines formerly dispensed in modera- tion at the government canteens, he will go beyond the boundaries of the military reservation and get drunk on the poison sold in the low doggeries which now flourish in sight of every army post.
 "In every age the spirit of true sol diery has engendered true mradeship, and in no realm of society, in no walk of life, has the radical reformer sue ceeded in changing the natural disposi- ton of man to the extent of eliminat- ing this sentiment. To say that the soldier as a man must be unlike his brother in all the other walks of life because he is a soldier he must be de- nied all privileges of even the most moderate conviviality among his com rades-because he is a soldier he must be subjected to unusually strenuous conditions and submit to radical re . formatory methods, which cannot be applied to any other class of men as a body in any other phase of life, is a species of fanaticism, which. it is re- spectfully suggested. lawmakers can we'll afford to ignore, if not to con- demn. While passions may be held in bound, nature cannot be wholly revers- ed or changed by stringent laws and rules. and the sooner rules are made looking to moderation, instead of ab-
