Mr.. Schroeder was in the car at the
time, and in the smashup one of

turn by train. They will now re-
main until the roads aud the wealth

ficers are men Of push and enter

assistance in the way Of coopera-
ton by the other members of the
club we believe that the organiza-
ton may be made a powerfor good
IN the town. The tendency of the
members since it was organized Il
year ago has been to stand back
and vail for the officers to bring
about results. This policy can
never bring success. Ii Scotland
ever takes it's place in the ranks Of
live, enterprising and progressive
commercial and industrial cen
tiers it must come through the ac-
tive, organized effort of her bust
ness men, and a live commercial
club is the best medium through
which this can be accomplished,
During the coming year an effort
will be made to have subjects OF
interest to the town discussed at
each meeting, these subjects to be-
previously announced and mem.
bers appointed to lead in the dis
cnssions.

Henderson and the Tariff.

David B. Henderson left Congress pro-
claiming devotion to protection, and In the
fear that the day was at hand when a
radical revision of the tariff by his party
was about to be made. The situation in
Iowa, he gave out, particularly disturbed
him. 1t was not a convincing explanation
OF his course. and the public shook Its
head. The wonder was that so game a
fighter should have retired on the eve of
the contest he described. To the extent,
however, that such fear may have in
fiuenced his action we see the failure of
his judgment at that time. Four years
have passed, and still the tariff remains
untouched Nothing In the line of revision
win be attempted by this Congress, and it.
is a toss-up to whether that issue cuts
prominent figure in the coming con-
gressional campaigns. And If the next
House Is not chosen that ISSUE and as
that body win organize on the eve of a
presidential election, when may we expect
the revision ball to open?

Hearst and 1908.

The question is sometimes asked. what is
20 be the Hearst program for 1908? Mu-
nicipal ownership of public utilities will
not, We are told. answer for a national
cry, 1t may not prove sufficient even for
a state cry, and such cry Is the one Mr.
Hearst just now Is seeking. He has not
declared as yet for government ownership
Of railroads and telegraph lines. and the
assumption that he Will do so at an early
day lacks support. But he is undoubtedly
IN the field either to secure the democratic
presidential nomination for himself. or to
control the convention for man of his
choice. and hence must have issues William
is in search OF a platform
VIII the republicans hand him plank in
the shape OF an amended Chinese exclusion
law. which in its enforcement will increase
the smuggling of coolies into this country =?
Nothing would please him better. Nothing
would come so pat TO his hand. In all of
his newspapers he has taken the American
side of the question, and It is but fair 10
say has handled 1t with skill and sobriety
If he had discussed other questions as
clearly and ably as he has done that he
would have escaped much of the censure
which has been passed upon him
Organized labor Is as alert as Mr. Hearst
about this business. And IT must be said
OF labor as Of him that If Its attitude on
all questions We're as we'll taken as on that
II would be irresistible in It's contentious
Labor sees the point. and has in view much
more than the matter OF wages, important
as that Is. 1t is standing in Its opposition
TO loosely drawn exclusion law--the de-
sire OF trading associations and Pacific
ocean steamship companies-for the best
interests OF the whole country. and stand
ing so firmly for them that II they should
be injured by legislation at this session
OF Congress respecting the Chinese, It Is
certain to hold the party in power RESPONSE
BILE at the polls. An opportunity will come
in November next, and another In Novem-
Der. 1903.
1t is Just as well to remember that Mr..
Hearst is to be reckoned with on a differ
ent basis from that Of two years ago. He
has following now of considerable pro-
portions. and all OF his efforts are directed
toward Increasing It. Carrying grst to the
Hearst MILL therefore. is hardly the proper
employment for republicans.

ly clearer definition of the differences. The
miners representatives have formally pre-
sented their demands, which have not yet
been made public and the operators are to
assemble this week to consider them. 1t Is
understood that the demands include the
recognition OF the union. tie eight-hour
day and increases in the wage scale for
certain classes of employees. There has
been much shifting of ground on the part
of the union representatives during the past
few weeks, until 1t is impossible to ascer-
tain whether there is set policy to force
a general strike or to make peace in the
hard-coaI fields and wage war in the soft
coal region. This week may clear the
situation as to the former possibility, al
though it is likely that whatever action
may be taken In New York as to the an
thracite workers will have to be referred
back to the organization for approval. The
Ryan resolution, adopted by the convention
at Indianapolis, forbidding peace settle
ment in any district unless there is peace
In all, is still ostensibly in force. President
Mitchell, however, has been quoted as de-
claring that the executive board OF the
union has the power to interpret the laws
of the organization. This may mean that
it will be held that the Ryan resolution APP
plies only to the extent of requiring peace
In all the soft-coal districts, regardless of
what occurs in the hard-coal region.
These five weeks will be period of great
anxiety to the industrial world. A general
strike, even in the soft-coal region alone,
would entail enormous losses and suffering
and seriously affect the prosperity of the
whole country. If continued stubbornly for
many weeks it would paralyze the manu-
featuring and the transportation activities
of the United States 1t is held by many
who have studied the question that the
threatened disaster is too great to be per-
mltted to occur, and that the forces of
peace Will have been invoked before April
TO bring about an agreement.

The Coal Situation.

Five weeks hence the contracts and
agreements between the mine owners and
workers in the coal fields of this country
will expire. There is grave danger that
these contracts and agreements will not
be renewed, with or without amendments.
The workers have made demands In both
fields which the operators have either re-
iected or are now considering. The situa-
ton IN the soft-coal field is confused to
such point that Il Is impossible at this
3uncture TO estimate the probable outcome.
The latest development consists in an EN-.
phatic statement by the vice president OF
the United Mine Workers Union to the
effect that the miners demands will be
granted by the operators. Upon what au-
thority he makes this positive declaration
he does not fully state. but he indicates
shat he is basing his prediction upon the
weakness OF the operators in point OF de-
fensiye resources for opposition to a strike.
Promptly, however. comes flat denial by
the chairman OF the committee of bitu-
Ininous operators. who says that such
statement Ia absurd and that as far as he
can see there will be soft coal strike IN
Pennsylvania, Ohio. Indiana and Illinois
commencing April 1.

The Situation in the Senate.

The New York Tribune is probably right
In the belief that II anybody has been put
In n hole by the maneuver which made Mr..
Tillman the custodian of the railroad rate
bill in the Senate 1t Is not the President.
1t is easy to see that the South Carolina
senator was not the man for the mission,
and we may assume that the President
himself would not have ratified the selec-
ton II he had been consulted about 1t.
When advised that the selection had been
made he uttered no criticism. Did he
swear when you told him that mother was
coming?" asked fond wife of the son who
had communicated the intelligence to his
father. mo, but think never saw such
a strange smile on mans face As the
novelists say, let us draw the curtain on
the scene when the news of Mr.. Aldrichs
move was carried to the White House
But taking the thing now that it is done,
let us consider the situation as 1t stands.
In the first place Mr.. Tillmans part In the
proceedings will be commensurate with his
ability to grasp and handle the subject.
The tools to the one who can use them.
This is q problem calling for knowledge OF
the law, skill In parliamentary fencing,
coolheadedness and clearmindedness, and
some diplomacy. II would test the powers

see then the ablest men there all enga ged !;
and the honors will go, as they usually go.
where they belong.
In the second place we must allow for
development IN Mr.. Tillman. Responsible
ity develops men, and this is the greatest
responsibility that has rested on Mr.. Till
mans shoulders since he entered public life.
He may grow with 1t. His first deliver
ances after assuming it indicate that he is
likely TO. He regards the question as nom
partisan. There is no flap of wings or early
morning crow in anything he has said. He
wants a law that railroad lawyers cannot
juggle with and that will do what Is gem
orally desired of IL. And he is particularly
clear and eminently right in wanting the
railroads removed from the business of
mining coal and controlling its price. He
not only wants their rates made reasonable,
but their functions confined TO carrying for
the public
The President IS not in a hole. nor has
railroad ratemaking been put there, by the
work Of Mr.. Aldrich. From NOW on nothing
can be done in a corner that will not be
subject to inquiry and explanation In the
open. Wall street may chuckle, or rage and
imagine vain things, but the issue OF rail-
road rate legislation is now before the SEN
ate. and the Senate is before the people

Take down an old volume of the Congress

John NJ. Clayton were pttted against each
other-for instance, the debate famous in
its time) on the merits of the Clayton-Bul-

contained Of the debate between Mr.. Bacon
of Georgia and Mr.. Spooner OF Wisconsin
on the constitutional powers of the Presi-

be scant praise to say that the Bacon
Spooner debate is the more readable of the
two For intellectual vigor, grip of the

Failure Of the Courts.
From the Springfield Republican.

The kidnapping of the Cudahy boy in Oma-
ha several years ago and the payment of u
heavy ransom for the lad by his millionaire
father stirred up widespread interest, as
well as national indignation against child
stealers The chase of Pat Grove, the kid
naper, was so long continued that IT finally
became a newspaper Joke. But Pat was at
last arrested; he even confessed the crime.
An Omaha jury has now acquitted him, on
the ground that the evidence against him
was not sufficient Such an outcome Is an
encouragement to lynch law.
