The WORST OF IT.


The strike of street railway employees
in Chicago has been settled on terms
that contain no advantage to anybody
But the worst of it is that the conduct
of the struggle should have proved
once more the incapacity of a great
citys executive for dealing with the
situation and the public's patient toll
erance of such failure. Rioting and
mob violence were practically continue
Gus in Chicago from the beginning. 1t
makes no difference whether the per-
sons responsible for this disturbance
were members of the unions out
on strike or, as is much more
likely, belonged to the lawless element
in the community that cares nothing
for either side, but finds in the con-
test between them an opportunity to
indulge its evil passions. The essen
tial point is that the city government
mas SHOWN Itself a failure.
The main trouble here, as in all
such cases, lies in official surrender.
The time to suppress a mob is
when it first gathers. Disorders of
the type referred to can be quelled in
stantly and thoroughly if taken in time.
If there is any delay, if there is the
slightest reason to believe that the full
force of official authority will not be
exercised to preserve order, then the
task grows long and difficult. The
price of twenty-four hours of uncer-
tainty and cowardice may be and often
is many days of suffering and blood
shed.
Experience everywhere leaves no
doubt of the truth of this position.
There was an exactly similar strike of
all the street car employees in Seattle
not many months ago. The men went
out and the lawless element of the city,
which is larger in proportion than in
almost any other city in the country,
proceeded to make things lively. They
cut trolley wires, piled distractions on
the tracks, congregated in mobs on the
street corners, stoned the few cars that
were run and originated a reign of vio-
lence. Public spirit was at once
aroused, and the press and all the bus
mess organizations of the city called
upon the authorities to act.
They were reinforced powerfully.
and to the lasting credit, be it said. of
the unions themselves, by similar re-
quest signed by the officers of the
street railway employees organization.
They ordered their men to keep off the
streets and to assist, if need be, in re-
| pressing disorder wherever it occurred.
The next morning half dozen or more
disturbers of the peace were arrested
the moment they began operations,
roughly handled and landed in Jail, and
there was an end of trouble. The
strike itself dragged along for week
| or two and was finally settled, as all
such difficulties are, by arbitration.
But there was no rioting or blood
shed or destruction of property.
This much every city executive owes
to himself and to the community. A
more serious affair than any outrage
that may be done in any particular dis
trict is the encouragement that it gives
to lawlessness: and the. belief it spreads
abroad that American institutions are
inadequate to the maintenance of law
and order, and that individual inter-
ests may override them at pleas
ure. There is no feature of our times
SO alarming as the general spread of

A BACKWARD STEP.

The action of the Montana house
in passing the bill to license gam
bling is something to be deplored.
To rid Montana of the curse of gam
bling is not an easy matter, and
those who have patience because the
officers are derelict and do not en-
force the law are short-sighted in the
extreme. Gambling never added a
dollar to the wealth of any commun-
ity, and 1t is an evil that blunts the
moral sentiment and poisons the
mind of the youth in every city where
it is permitted. 1t is to be hoped
that the state senate will defeat the
bill when it reaches that body, and
that the officers in the various coun.
ties will be compelled to enforce the
present law against gambling.

The new apportionment bill intro
duced in the state senate reduces the
number of members of the house to
50, the present house containing ~
members. In this reduction, Flathead
county will have two members in
stead of three, as at present. The
reason given for reducing the mem
Eership is that the present house is
unweildy, but the real reason is to
be found in the fact that it will be
easier for the corporations to control
a house of smaller membership. The
number of members that will have to
be purchased on any measure will not
be SO large in a house of SO members.
Economy for the corporations is no
doubt the real motive.
