DID IT NEED ORGANIZING ?

Nobody seems to want to take the responsibility for the recent anti-Jap- anese riots in Vancouver, British Col umbia. It has been curiously charged that these riots were organized by la bor leaders from the United States These charges have apparently found some acceptance in London and in Tokio. It seems to be a fact that cer- tain influential trade unionists of the State of Washington were in Van couver to participate the parade of the Canadian Asiatic Exclusion league in that city, a dehonstration which was followed immediately by the first of the riots. But the presence of these Americans in British Columbia does not account for the passage some time ago by the British Columbia legisla- ture of a resolution urging the eXclu- son of oriental laborers. Nor does it explain the action of the mayor and prominent citizens of Vancouver when, few days after the first riot, they raised considerable fund to pay for a special train to take shipload of Japanese, Chinese and Hindoos from their port across the dominion to Ot- tawa, the seat of Canada's federal government.
 It is not probable that the riots needed any organizing" The feeling against the orientals was strong and something happened to cause it to break out. It is not charged that Can adians organized" the San Francisco outbreak, but perhaps there would be as much reason in such charge as there is in the charge that Americans organized the Vancouver outbreak.

4 CHANCE FOR eENERosHTY.

Because of the widespread publicity given the statement of Bishop Berry of Detroit that either President Roose- welt or Secretary Loeb, and not MT. Fairbanks, was responsible for the cocktails served at the luncheon ten- dered them by the vice-president at Indianapolis, Secretary Loeb at Oyster Bay issued the following formal state- ment: "The statement Is too absurd to be given any credence, Neither the president nor his secretary either di- rectly or indirectly ordered anything of any kind at the lunch in question, or at any other lunch where they were guests"
 This looks plausible, Kings and queens are we believe, always con- suited about what they want to eat and drink, and whom they want to eat and drink with But in this dem ocratit country, where the President is the servant of the people, such royal treatment doesn't seem to be necessary. The end of the cocktail incident is not yet, and if 1t can't be laid on Secretary Loeb we don't know where it will finally fetch up. Perhaps somebody was allowed to prepare that celebrated luncheon in his or her own way, without regard to politics, and provided cocktails on the supposition that all great men drink them or, al least, that it is polite to give them a chance to drink them. If that is so he or she should come forward, like q little man or little woman, and tel the truth, as George Washington did He or she would be forgiven and for gotten. President Roosevelt and Vice. President Fairbanks never will be un. less some generous one relieves them of this burden.

NO RAILROAD MERCER,

President Mellen presents himself to the public as a very human person with just such limitation set upon his patience as the rest of us. He can perhaps stick longer than some persons but he does not be'ong to that class which never knows that it is dnwn and out
 President Mellen has announced to the gentlemen who were interested in the proposed merging of the Boston and Maine railroad with the New York, New Haven and Hartford that he has concluded that 1t would be un- wise for him and them to continue the negotiations; that at present the tenn per of the opposition makes 1t undesir- able to push and then push some more. This significant assertion is also added: "Nor will he ever press the subject hereafter unless there are proofs that this opposition has disap- peared.
 The business interests of the State of Massachusetts must feel immensely pleased with the success of the opposi- tion to the proposed merger, more so than the producers of Connecticut do It will be interesting now to watch and see how long 1t will be before they cal upon the New Haven road to go ahead, for nothing is more certain, ex- cep; the annexation of West Haven to New Haven, than the final merging of the two railroad systems.

4 GERMdY ILLUMIYAYT.

The Germans don't mean to let anybody get ahead of them in war, any more than in business. So there has been introduced into the German army a revolver that fires Illuminating bullets. The weapon has the general appearance of the regular service re- volver, but is larger in caliber and in general dimensions The bullets, after being fired, become highly illuminat- ing, The discharge is practically noise- less; the bullet rises about hundred yards and has a range of about the same distance. Wherever the bullet alights the landscape is lit up as bril- liantly as by daylight for about half a minute. This enables attacking troops to reconnoiter effectively, and readily to detect the presence of an enemy On falling to the ground or on buildings these illuminating bullets do not set fire to combustible objects, and they are therefore not dangerous to use in localities where fire might be as dan- gerous to the attacking troops as to the enemy.
 With these bullets, and with the air. ships, the next war will be spectacu- lar affair. Perhaps the armies will get Iso interested in the fireworks and things that they will forget to fight.

SAMSON MAS REALLY STRONG.

The investigators and the higher and lower critics haven't left us many of the good old stories on which those who are now old or elderly inhabitants were founded. So it will be cheering to many. that recent investigation goes to show that strong man Samson real ly did pull down the pillars of the temple at Gaza, and allow the roof to drop on the Philistines. Prof Stewart Macalister, who is now at work on the site of Gaza, has discovered the ruins of eight cities there, dating back to a period 5000 years before Christ. The excavations at Gaza show how it was that Samson destroyed the temple of the Philistines. The pillars were of wood, and they rested on foundations of stone, without being fastened there to. The strong man had, therefore, merely to push these pillars off their supporting stones, when down would come the whole front of the building.

been shown to be as false and futile as they say some other parts of it have been. Perhaps Jonah will yet be discovered, with an autobiography which will establish the famous fish story.

The Attack on the Liquor Tramc.
(Boston Trnscript.)

NBOSlOu IfnscFlpt.j
 The enemies of the liquor traffic, from all parts of the country, are said to be preparing for descent in force upon congress next winter in the inter- ests of the Littlefield- Deliver bill or something like it. The Anti-Saloon League will be the central force in the campaign, and the W. c. T. U. and the various minor organizations with kin dred interests and purpose, win be en- listed as light skirmishers. The end to be striven for, at this particular time, is to secure for the States the power to exercise control over inter state shipments of prohibited liquors. It is charged that the Federal govern mont has for years thwarted the will of the people of the States by prevent ing the success or even fair trial or state liquor laws; that 1t has been a rule of the Treasury department that internal revenue collectors shall not testify in the State courts as to who are holders of government liquor li- censes and this has worked to the de- triment of the States in their efforts to enforce their liquor laws This seems tartamount to a confession that prohi- bition, under the conditions thus far governing it's trial, has not been 8 sue cess. The contention will be not only that dry States shall have. jurisdtc- ton over liquors as soon as they reach their borders but the demand may be made that the government shall issue licenses 10 no person who has not flrss compiled with the laws governing the sale of intoxicating beverages in his own State. Tho prehibttorV movement in the South Is regarded as very favor able to the success of this undseta kinE, IL may be and it may not. We doubt whether there would be the T2ms "s- thusiasm for prohibition in the South were it not for the safety-valve of in terstate protected shipments.

PArRIorrsM IN SONG.

Perhaps they don't have as many and as good notions in Chicago as they do in Boston, but Chicago is cer- tainly gaining in the number and quality of its notions. The latest Is that Superintendent Cooley plans to introduce into the public schools a book of United States patriotic songs and other distlnctively United States melodies. The present school music books, he finds, are deficient in the songs of this country, If no such suit able book is in print, the music in- struetors of the department will be called on to prepare one The superin- tendent believes that such instruction would inspire patriotism and national sentiment He mentions incidentally that at the recent meeting of the Na- tional Educational Association at Los Angeles, the management was careful to distribute the words of America" before the teachers were. asked to sing the song, as 1t was believed many of them did not know the lines.
 It seems like good plan to have the children brought up on patriotic singing. And if in song they can get the idea that 1t is as sweet and fitting to live we'll for their country as it is to die for 1t "'mid the rockets red glare and the bombs bursting in air' that wont hurt them or their country.

OUR CONTEMPORARIES.
PnternnI Caorernment.
(Jaspor, in Leslle,s weekly.l

(Jaspor, in Leslies Weekly)
 Working men who insist on higher wages because the living cost has been increased stand on precisely the same footing as the investor who, because of the increased cost of living, has right to expect greater profit on his invest ment. If capital combines to favor its own interests, so does labor. If one is trust, so Is the other. If one increases prices, the other increases wages upon which prices are substantially founded flor the higher the wage the higher the price of the commodity it produces,
 If State and federal governments are to depart from their accustomed chah- nels of service to regulate the price of oil sugar, steel and coal, why should the government not regulate the price of cotton, of wheat, of corn, of milk, and hogs? If we are to have a paternal government in it's essence, why not let the government engage in the manu- facture and the production of the re- cessities of life and distribute them at cost price to the people?
