Overpaid Austrian Official.

That no sum is too small to be taken
into account by the lynx-eyed Austrian
officials is evident from an incident
reported from Bregenz. The tax office
there has just received formal notice
from the high court of justice at Inns
bruck stating that an investigation of
the accounts of the Bregenz tax office
for 1906 shows an overpayment of one
heller (onetenth of penny in the
salary of one of the officials.
The notice directs that the official
be required to refund this sum, which
must then be duly entered in the state
accounts for the current year. A Vor-
ariberg paper publishes a facsimile of
this interesting document, and gravely
eXprcsses The hope that the extra
heller -, not led the overpaid oflicial
into 1h,as of eXtravagant destination

COMPULSORY ARBITRATION.

There has been introduced in the house of
commons of the Canadian parliament at Ottawa
bill providing for compulsory arbitration of labor
disputes. 1t framed by the minister of labor
Mr. Lemieux, who used the New Zealand legisla-
tion on the same subject as a model
The measure provides that all industrial dis
putes shall be referred to special concilation boards
whenever it is found impossible by the parties
directly interested TO reach amicable adjustment.
1t is made a punishable offence for a labor union
to strike before there has been reference of the
dispute TO the concliation board
On the other hand, an employer who locks out
his employees before his grievances have been sub
mtted 10 the board is similarly punishable. Union
men who strike because non-union men are en-
poyed in the establishment are to be penal
lied, and SO, too, is the employer who discrmn-
ates against union men who enter his service.
According TO trustworthy reports the govern
ment, which has a majority in parliament, is in
favor of the measure and it has received the en-
dorsement of labor unions throughout the Do
minion Therefore the only hostility it is likely to
encounter will come from the Conservatives and
cannot be of serious moment. The passage Of the
bill, therefore appears certain.
But its enactment will not mean the ending of
all strikes and ockouts in the Dominion of Canada
because the concaton boards will not and cannot
be clothed with power to compel compliance with
their findings
The limit of their authority will be to examine
the causes of controversy and suggest bases of
but neither side TO the dispute is
bound to either approve or adopt the compromise
suggested. Each retains the right to accept or
reject it it sees fit In a majority of cases it is
likely that rejection will mean a strike
or lockout as the situation as it appears to those
involved may seem to demand.
The chief virtue of such law therefore, will
be found in its requiring both sides 10 dispute to
confer and to support its contentious before an
impartial tribunal in advance of open rupture.
Some good ought to come from such law.
If it cannot be expected to put an end to strikes
and lockouts altogether it can at least do much in
the direction of lessening the always costly and
generally deplorable conflicts between capital and
labor.

GOV. HUGHES REFORMS

Gov. Hughes, in his first message to the
New York legislature advocates several
reforms" which are quite out of the
common line. 1t remains 10 be seen If all
os them can be fairly considered re
forms He suggests that courts be en-
powered to review alleged fraudulent pro-
ceedings in party conventions whereby
minority eXpels duly chosen delegates and
converts itself into a majority. He also
advocates provision for>direct nomination
of candidates at primaries.
This brings Up question which has at
traIcted some attention In Ohio. Indeed,
the state has affected to be the trbitrary
or drbitrating power in the settlement OF
primary proceedings are assumed to be
under the regulation OF the state law.
This interference with the long-recognized
theory that a political party is volun-
tary organization, capable OF running Its
own business, and with the clear right to
do so. While parties are necessary insti-
tutions I'm the Organization OF govern
ment, the government, Il may be power
fully claimed has no function in connec-
ton With them.
The power of the people at the polls, Is
invoked TO punish party rascality. Par
ties are instrumentallties for tho propos-
ing of candidates for the popular suffrage,
Review OF the work OF conventions In the
courts suggests tense possibilities. Would
~ ever become tho province OF the court
to pass upon a declaration OF principles3
Gov. Hughes may not be able 10 impress
his views Quickly on the legislature and
the body politio but he has contributed
something 10 stimulate consideration Of
vital matters,-Cincinnati Inquirer.

Many have baseess fear of insanity and one
woman sought employment in asylum so that
she might be restrained when the day of alteration
came.
Among DIR. Quackenbos patients have been
many who believed they had been bewitched, a
very common deluson at the present time Never
theess, Dr. Quackenbos says these people are not
insane. Their nerves are unstrung; that is all.
They are simply neurasthenic.
1t is informing to learn from source so
authoritative that common delusion of the sane
is a morbid horror OF dust and disorder, which may
possibly account for the activity Of many otherwise
excellent housewives who are eternaly making war
on specks OF dust and therefore the despair Of
the remainder of the household.
The vague sense of being afraid is common
symptoms of neurasthenia and similar symptom
is that of ndecsion. Even the hardest-headed
business man, according to DR.. Quackenbos is
liable TO be obsessed by of the ten thousand odd
delusons in the catalog of the psychologist but it
is entirely wrong TO that person so affict-
ed is proper subject for restraint in an asylum
The doctor declares that asyums for the in
sane are filled with inmates who might have been
saved from insanity had they been opportunely
treated, which indicates that there IS too ready a
disposition to railroad into confinement those who
show the slightest oddity in their mental processes

BLAMED FOR WRECK

II anything was right about the opera
ton of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad the
coroner's jury which probed the Terra
Gotta slaughter did not discover II. A
more complete case OF al-around incom-
potency was never made out against a
public service corporation. The telegraph
operator gave wrong signal Engineers
and conductors OF both trains We're TO
blame. Trainmasters and train Dispatch
ers were at fault
The supervision and wage system are
defective. Finally the alleged block Sig
nal scheme, which is only an imitation OF
the real, Is condemned as affordng no
protection against accident. The COM
pany's superintendent testified that every
rule relating TO the movement OF trains
was violated, but he refrained from CEN
surfing himself or the board of directors
for the neglect.
The blame of course, begins at the top
and filters down. Responsibility Is heavi-

A POOR FOOD LAW

Because the pure food law theoretically
has gone into effect. housekeepers may
not therefore abandon the poaching test
for eggs labeled strictly fresh" All Will
not be butter that is not strong, and here
and there even a conscientious barkeeper
will sell for cents a hummer OF whiskey
that would make a rabbit spit In a bull
dogs face"
As Gov. Hughes so we'll said in his In
augural message. there is no panacea in
executive and legislative action for all the
Ills OF society which spring from the
frailities and defects OF the human ma
turo OF it's members" In no department
OF human activity does this general rule
apply more than 20 the preparation and
sale OF foods, drinks and drugs Tho
sanding OF sugar and the dilution or adul-
teration OF LIQUIDS were ancient accom-
plishments when the Egyptian pyramids
were young.
All this ls not going 10 get itself
straightened out by an enactment OF con-
gress-nor moreover by "a congress that
was favorable TO the practice OF selling
almost-food, nearly-whiskey and perhaps
medicine. lt appears that the means or
enforcing the pure food law, witch nomi-
nally went into effeot with tho New Year.
Is something more inoffsctual than the
method OF compelling the railroads, un-
der the Hepburn act, 10 give reasonable
rates
In this case tho consuming public should
content itself with the belief that n be-
ginning has been made In the suppression
OF the imitation food traffic, The small
numbers OF the population which have
