What the Editors Say

There is never anything yielding in
the hide bound policy of the st. Louis
Globe-Democrat. At this late day it
refers to last years coal troubles as
/ the lengthy and Senseless strike
among the anthracite miners" The
anthracite strike is looked upon by all
| men free from the IRON clad prejudice
of partisanship as an economic tri-
umph, full of good future possibilities.
1t established the principle which must
be invoked in the final settlement of
differences arising between capital anu
labor and gave to labor an economic
standing which accords it equal hts
before the tribunal of the Peep nd
within the tribunal of judicial pro-
cedure. The Globe-Democrat is still
permitting politics to dilute it's reason.

Mcclellan was elected mayor of New
York by an enormous majority. He
had all the preachers and all the pa
pers except one paper opposed to him.
This shows that Tammany is stronger
than ever, and that the one paper had
an enormous influence in Greater New
York. We trust that the promises of
the Tammany forces to reform the city
and to dispense good government will
be fulfilled to the letter. If such is
the case, the Democrats can look to
New York for an enormous majority
for the next Democratic candidate
against Roosevelt If Roosevelt meets
with a crushing defeat in New York
his channels in the balance of the coun-
try will Be Northumberland Forks

Thomas H. Shevlin, Republican ma
tional committeeman and partner Of
Ray w. Jones, lumberman, accused Of
fraud and grand larceny in their tim
Der operations, comes out in a pro-
nounced interview in favor of r. G.
Dunn for governor. Shevlin is in pol
tiles for his "own pocket all the time"
and while Mr.. Dunn should not be put
under suspicion thereby, his friends
certainly have no reason to feel f1atter-
ed because Shevlin has ostentatiously
announced his support of Mr.. DUNN

We have only to say that there Is not
a Canadian of any sense whatever who
entertains the slightest feeling of re-
sentiment against the United States be-
cause of the Alaska boundary decision.
The American commissioners, as rep
resentatives of their country, contend
ed for everything in sight, and quite
properly So 1t would be peeyish and
stupid in the extreme for Canadians
to entertain any feeling against the
states because of the result of the
award.-Winnipeg Tribune.
1t is to be regretted that the good old
habit of reading the Bible is waning,
even on other than religious grounds.
Ignorance of the Bible largely disquali-
fies one for appreciative reading Of
many of the best things in general lit
erature. To become reasonably we'll
educated one should become familiar
with the Bible and with country scenes
and life. These are helps to a better
understanding of the best in litera-
ture and living-Northfield News.
When political leaders on all sides
admit and accept the fact that Mime
sofa iron, the best and most abundant
in the world, is the undisputed monop-
oily of a few, while the price of Mime
sofa and Northwestern lumber is prac-
tically fixed by arbitrary decree, we
believe that both Golden and Franklin
would agree that a new issue needs to
be raised in state politics.-Midway
News.
We hope the government will sue
coed in convicting the timber thieves,
no matter who they are, even Re-
publican lieutenant governor of Mime
sofa, if he can be proven guilty No
matter who has been indulging in this
practice, rich or poor, they should be
punished. Laws are made to be en-
forced, and should be. Let no guilty
man escape" ALBERT Lea Enterprise.
1t is stated that 70 per cent Of the
women in New Zealand use their privi-
lege to vote at the polls, but it is also
added that, as a rule. they vote in ac-
cordance with the views Of their hus-
bands Or brothers, so that the results
of election are not essentially changed.
