The Tenement House Strike.

Among the tenants who pay out
rageous prices for miserable living
quarters on the lower east side of
New York there is in progress a
most remarkable strike. Women
organizers are working by districts
to pledge the tenants 10 strike, on
January 1, against present excessive
rents, to refuse absolutely 10 pay,
and thus to force a crisis that will
bring attention to the sufTerings Of
the defenseless and unemployed
poor.
With thousands out of employ
ment, the poor of New York find
themselves unable to live under
present conditions. To remain in
their tenements and pay present
rents means to starve. They are
ready for the step that will most
effectually force recognition of the
fact that between starvation in
doors and freezing out of doors
there is really little CHOICE. The
owners of tenement rookeries lease
the big piles to landlords, who in
turn suitcase sections to the peo-
pie who transact the actual busi-
ness of grinding the face of the
poor. Trinity Church Corporation,
great owner of this sort of prop
erty, is far removed from the actual
imposition on the unfortunates who
pay their wages to its Golfers; but
it and other great owners are none
the less the power higher up to
which each subordinate landlord
hands up all that he is able to
squeeze from those beneath him.
The striking tenants have been
holding Indignation meetings, and
arc said to be well organized. If
they march out, or are driven out,
the problem of caring for them will
be up to the municipal charity au-
thorities, and it is not a pleasant
prospect.
Failure may end this strike; prob
ably will But in n time Of greater
stress, of severer depression, Of
sharper hunger, just such a move
ment as this might precipitate a
crisis of most dangerous character.
The problem of the city is far from
solution, even from adequate
understanding. Municipal housing
schemes have merit, but the possi-
bility of ending the city's troubles
by such palliatives is small. New
York has little chance to take up
such measures at a time when its
credit is lower and its debt and ne
cessities higher than almost ever
before.
The Washington times., 1907-12-28
The Navy Department Row.

There may be n world of effective
argument in favor of the PROPOSE
tioH that a doctor is just the person
to command a ship. AT first blush
it seems rather odd, and without
any detailed inquiry a number of
reasons come TO mind which seem
to suggest that a sailor would be a
good man to command a ship, and
doctor would be useful to admins
ter physic and saw bones. We have
never done much in the sailing line,
and on these occasions when we
have sailed it is to be confessed that
the services of a doctor seemed
quite as desirable as of any other
functionary.
1t is assumed. we take it, that if a
doctor is the right person to com
mand a ship, then conversely a sea
captain would be the proper person
to call upon in case of illness. De-
termination of the latitude and
longitude of the patient doubtless
would help in cases Of persons who
had got ''off their feed" and were
anxious to get back on.
Again, sea captains at times take
dead reckonings, and it is under
stood that doctors do the same
in many of their cases. This sug-
gests that there may not be so very
wide a difference between the func-
tions Of the doctor and the captain.
At the same time, cOnceding all
these points in favor of telephOning
for a captain or first mate in case
the baby develops a bad case of
Group. we doubt if the conversation
so natural in this American COM
munity will give way to so striking
an innovation as this change would
imply. The American public is no
toriOusly the most conservative in
the world. 1t has for generations
taken more medicine per capita
than any other community on earth.
1t loves pills, it dotes on castor oil,
il is devoted to mustard plasteTs,
and where would there be any real
line of social demarcatiOn if it were
not for the distinction which ap-
pendicitis confers on those darlings
of the gods who are lucky enough
to get it2 No, we are not prepared
to believe that the plain, wOrk-a-day
American viii readily be brought to
adopt the idea Of sailing in ships
commanded by doctors, or taking
medicine prescribed by seafaring
folk.

AUTOMOBILE BREAKS.
BRIDE WALKS TO ALTAR

LONDON, Dec. 2S.-WhIle on her way
from her hotel to st. Georges, Han
over Square. where she was married TO
Roland Batenlali. Of Cordially. Ireland,
Miss Marion MarAdams, who is the
daughter OF the ate DR.. MacAdarns.
formerly a well-knOwn physician Of
Ohio, had an automobile experience
which caused her considerable anxiety.
Miss MacAdams was travelling along
at brisk clip when the car suddenly
stopped and all the efforts of the
chauffeur to locate the trouble proved
Of no avail. AS the time of the wedding
was quickly approaching and no we'd
dings can be performed in England after
3 O'Clock, Miss AIacAdams in her elab-
orate wedding gown was forced TO
walk to the church. Spectators fol-
lowed and there was quite a procession
by the time Miss AIacAdams arrived at
the church.

be sent to market. The rest was
lost.
Not only this. The heaps of waste
were the most serious menace to
the forests because of the danger of
fires starting in them. Billions of
feet of standing timber have been
burned as a result of fires origi-
mating in the waste heaps.
Thus has something like half of
the social value of the greatest for
est on this continent been wasted
in the process of marketing. Wasted
when elsewhere in the world timber
is being sedUlously cared for, for
ests are being replanted and re-
stored. Is it TO be wondered that
the richest country on earth in
natural resources Is surely falling
toward the av- rage economic level
Of the rest of the world? Another
generation or two Of waste of the
mines, the power, the waters, the
forests, the soils fertility, and
America will find itself with from
15O,OOO,OOO to 2OO,OOO,OOO people, and
no whit superior in resources to
countries whose age is to be meas
ured in thousands of years as
against our centuries.

SENATORS OUTLINE
CURRENCY REMEDY
Republican Measure Will Be
Introduced When Con-
greSS ReaSsembles.

The Senatorial triumvirate OF the FL
nance Committee, consisting Of Senators
Aldrieh, Allison. and Hale. t. which
has been assigned the task of prepar-
ing financial legislation to prevent a
recurrence of the recent money string
ency, has almost completed its work.
There are many details TO be worked
out, but the general plan has been
practically agreed upon.
Their bin will not be an asset cur
rency measure. nor will It be anything
like national Endorsement of the clear
ing-house certificates with which the
country has recently been deluged.
I'VE don't want anything which the
people will lay aside. but something in
which they will have confidence and
which they will use in their need" said
one Of the triumvirate, today.
The plan evolved provides for an ad-
ditiOnal banking currency, Of the same
form as that now in circulation, and
backed by the guarantee OF the United
States Government. What limitation
shall be placed on the amount 10 be
issued by each bank IS one Of the details
not definitely determined.
Provision will be made for the creation
Of fund, raised by the imposition OF
a small tax, either on Government de-
pCsits in national banks. G uDOn exist

United States from loss. Another pro-
vision will be made to secure the retire

pectatiOn Of introducing II almost i'm

The Waste of Resources,

The other day there was held be-
fore the Interstate Commerce Com
mission a hearing in which the
greatest railroad and industrial in
terests of the Pacific Northwest ap-
peared to discuss the economic as
poets of the development of the
lumber business Of Washington and
Oregon. That hearing brought out
forcible illustration Of the proc
esses by which natural resources
of this country have been wasted.
When the Great Northern road
was opened to the coast, the freight
movement was nearly al westward.
There was a movement of emigra-
ton that made freight westward;
but there was nothing but empty
cars to haul eastward. President
Hill proceeded TO fix very low rates
on lumber, in order to induce lum-
bermen to go into the wonderful
forests of the Puget Sound region
and cut them into lumber. The
timber supply seemed inexbaustible-
To get it on the market required
that IL be hauled very long dis
tances. because it must compete
with lumber of Minnesota, Michi-
gan, Wisconsin, and the South,
which were nearer the consumers.
Mr.. Hin made the rates and the
business developed.
But it was utterly impossible to
make a rate low enough to move
any but the best grades of North
western lumber over such long dis
tances. The finest trees could be
cut and sawed into immense sticks
of dimension lumber, or into the
choicest board material But in the
process there were many trees of
poorer grade which would not make
better than second-class lumber;
there was also large waste in cut
ting up the best trees. These Sec
ond-grade sticks would have been
extremely valuable but for the long
haul. They were too far from mar
ket to be worth anything. So they
were thrown aside. From time to
time immense amounts of timber,
valueIess simply because it was too
far from market; valueless because
that magnificent forest was being
forced into the market ahead of its
time-were burned, or left to rot,
It was testified that fully one-third
of the potential lumber csntent of
the cut-over land was thus wasted;
nothing but the very choicest could
