COST or STRIKES,

From time TO time the question Of the
cost OF strikes comes up and the gem
cral conviction is that that mode Of adj
justing labor differences does not pay.
The Denver Republican says the cost
Of i've recent strikes IN the mining and
smelling industries Of Colorado is about
s23.OS6. 0OO Of which '636,O0O has been
paid by the taxpayers ms the cost Of
military operations, while the most OF
the remainder has fallen upon labor.
1t is but natural that laborers should
exert themselves to obtain the wages
their labor ~ worth, or to raise the
standard Of living. Employers do not
ms a rule, care for how employees live.
The laborers must look after their own
interests. But do strikes pay? DO not
the laborcrs iniure themselves by stop
ping, as far as they can, the wheels
OF industry, and bringing hard times
upon themselves and their families?
There is but little doubt among the stu
dents OF these questions, that the Ia
borcrs generally had been better of
than they are today. but for the strikes
that have occurred during the last ten
or twenty years,
what is needed is a better method OF
reaching an understanding between the
parties that are mutually dependent up
on one another Arbitration is the de-
mand Of civilization, and capital and
labor must eventually yield to that de-
mand,

THE FILIpINoS.

A recent decision by the supreme
Court Of this country according to
which the Filpinos are barred from
the privilege Of trial by jury has start
ed the discussion concerning those far
away possessions again. And 1t Is really
astonishing to notice how Illogical some
OF our contemporaries become when the
Philippine question suddenly Is flashed
before them. one prominent paper de-
clares ON the authority Of ex-Governor
Taft. tina, the islanders are so far from
r,nrss for self government, that 1t Is
| not oven good policy TO discuss the sub
jec. with them. And yet, the same pa
per- in the same breath, advocates CIV
ing independence 10 these islanders, 40
UNIT for citizenship
The discussion concerning the Phil
lppnes Is very strange, from an Amer
lean point OF view, II would not be
singular, II those who envy Americans
their position should tell us that we are
tyrants and that American government
is tyranny, from which the Fillplnos
must seek an escape, But what can be
said. when Americans speak Of the In
sututions Of their country in that for
cgn spIrit7 In some countries such
words would brand their authors as
traitors
When the Philippines we're acquired
from Spain, the people there we're Civ.
en- liberty. under the American flag is
It, we would ask, possible for people
to attain any more genuine brand Of
liberty, any higher altitude Of freedom
than that? n American institutions are
planted IN the island soil, and II they
are cultivated and taken care Of there,
until they attain a nourlshng growth,
and spread will that be curse to the
inhabitants? VIII they be slaves, or
free? Such questions should need no
reply In this country,
The PHILIPPINE problem may be in
trlcate, but when were Americans
known so shrink from task because OF
It's difficulties. This will be solved in
accordance with the demands OF justice
and humanity. The Philippines may at
some future time, If that shall be deem
ed best, be established as an independ-
ent republic. II that is done, the ex-
perience OF the people under the Amer
lean flag viii be OF the greatest benefit.
When they were abandoned by Spain
they were certainly not NJ to assume the
position of an independent people In the
family Of nations They may not yet
be qualified for that position, But they
win become so, II they profit by the
schooling they now receive. American
civilization Is destined TO become a light
to all the world, and Americans should
be the last to remove the candlestick
from any corner OF the earth, where II
may have been placed by Providence.

POSSIBILITIES OF CHINA.

Sir Robert Hart, who for years has
devoted his services to the British In
terests In China, has detailed plan
for the civll and moral regeneration of
that country II Is interesting chiefly
as showing the possibilities Of that en-
pre, In the estimation Of one who is
thoroughly familiar with every part OF
Il.
Sir Robert aims to raise the revenue
of the country from the present amount
Of about $50. 100000. to secs, 900 900 This,
he clams can be done by tax on the
productive area Of the country His
plan also contcmplates the organization
of corps OF responsible officials who
shall be so well paid as not TO need TO
be dishonest.
As soon as there Is money on hand,
Sir Robert proposes to apply Il to the
reorganization Of the civil service and
the army and navy. lie would create
four army corps for the provinces OF
Chi-ll, Liang.Hiang, Hu-Hwang and
LANG Kwang, each to consist Of 10000
men, lie would establish four military
colleges and spend 100000 tacls an
nually on arms and ammunition, He
would gradually increase the army,
which he calls the peace establishment,
to 100000 men by forming reserves from
the original corps lie puts the annual
Fl "a. 1iaI.Y
taels lie proposes 10 create navy
OF 2AO vessels of all classes, 10 be formed
into three squadrons. northern central
and southern, their officers to be drawn
from three naval colleges. The navy
bin is computed at O00OOOOO taels
spread over ten years In regard to
the clvl service he would pay every
official high and low, salary which
would remove all excuses for blackmal;
he would spend 10000, 900 taels annually
on education, 100000 ON the post office
department 100000 for telegraph SER
vice. The total expenditures for the
civil service and imperial household he
sets at 276.OOO,OO0 laels lie counts on
a balance Of about a, 100000 taelswhIch
he would apply to the promotion Of
undertakings beneficial to the empire.
The New York Evening sun from
which these data are taken, thinks that
the plan would be opposed by the high
officials who would be losers By the re-
ductiou OF their salaries, while 1t would
be approved by the lower officials whose
economic condition would be bettered.
Probably this would be the case. The
question Of salary acts as an obstacle
10 many reform that otherwise would
be carried with the force OF a landslide,
But some lime the regeneration OF

become the instrument by which any
body calling itself religious should be
attacked there were many that could
not consent. to the offer TO make the
action OF the convention cover all the
vices alluded 10 and thus remove
the religious aspect OF the question,
the majority would not consent.
on the question Of the actual
prevalence OF polygamy In Ida
no. direct issue is taken by
those who know against those who
only make assertions that they do not
attempt to prove, After the great and
repeated outcres OF the Statesman, and
the resolutions adopted at the Weser
convention, one not familiar with the
facts would suppose that there was ur-
gent necessity for the national govern
ment to take up the matter, and use It's
power to crush out an eyil that the
state could not suppress and which was
Of threatening proportions. Here Is
what another idaho paper sets forth in
reply to all'such sensational charges:
A number OF times the question has
been asked OF tho Times by oorrc-
spondents Are there polygamlsts IN
Idaho" our answer has always been
that We did not know; that 80 FAR as we
knew there were none. j. H. Wallis,
the editor Of the Fremont County Cur.
rent-Journal, from his position In the
church, should be supposed 10 know
definitely Of the condition The last is
sue OF that paper says;
THE Current-Journal is IN a position
TO prove that there is not a score Of
polygamous families IN Idaho, all told
and that there has not been a polygam-
Gus marriage contracted by parties live
inc in the state for the past ten years"
That paper challenges the Statesman
TO prove its assertion that There are
scores Of poygamous families in Idaho,
and the number is constantly mcreas-
ing"
But the Statesman viii not attempt
to prove the charges, nor viii II give
the facts as stated by those who know
them The scheme Is to work up the
old anti Mormon" turorc IN the State,
and make a fusion OF the elements OF
all parties that can be bounded togeth-
cr or attracted by a common religious
cause Of anlmosity We firmly believe
that tho plot Will fall. and that the
willy wire .puIlers will eventually lose
their grip and fan into the pit they have
dgged for others. True Democrats will
not favor anti-Democratic doctrine or
action out OF religious prejudice; real
Republicans viii hesitate before tumb
ling into tho trap set for their feet by
political trlcksters; and the right will
finally triumph.

The means by which the bull-hght

recalls the story of the heroic young
man who, when he saw a little child
playing on the track I'm front of the

and deluiled the train saving the child
by killing five hundred other people.
We read of arson, mayhem. and at

sure, but a high-mnded city with an
international exposition on It's hands

indicated. II does not appear for all
this, that the show would have been
OF sensational or demoralizlng nature,
