COMPULSORY ARBITRATION.

STRIKES and lockouts, with their at
tendant loss and suffering, continue to in
crease. For the five years ending De-
cember 81, 1905, the number of strikes was
greater than those in any previous ten
years, ana was double The number In the
preceding five years. These figures indi-
cate the increasing need of providing some
machinery to deal with this class Of dis
turbances in the interest alike of the EN-,
ployer, the employee, and the general
public.
Il renew my previous recommendation
that the Congress ~favorably consider the
matter of creating the machinery for COM
pulsory investigation of such industrial
controversies as are of sufficient magni-
tude and of sufficient concern to the peo-
pie of the country as Il whole to warrant
the Federal Government in taking action. -
The President cites the telegraph
strike as an example. Efforts made by
a representative of the government,
so far as he could go with propriety,
were futile. He continues:
The provisions of the act of 1898 Great
ing the chairman of the Interstate Com
merce Commission and the COMMISSIONS
of Labor a board of mediation in eontro-
VERSES between interstate railroads and
their employees has. for the first time,
been subjected to serious tests within the
past year. and the wisdom of the expert
ment has been fully demonstrated. The
creation of a board for compulsory investi-
CATION in cases where mediation fails and
arbitration is rejected is the next logical
step in a progressive program"

SHAFT TO KEARNY
ASKS CONGRESS- FOR $780,
600 FOR MONUMENT.
Especial to the Evening start

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3,-Representative
Loudenslager, of New Jersey. has intro
duced a bill making an appropriation of
500. coo for the erection OF a statue in
Washington in honor of the late General
Phil Kearny.
Maior-General Philip Kearny. whom
General Scott referred to as "the bravest
man | ever knew and the most perfect
soldier" resided in Newark at one time.
The town of Kearny and many organiza-
tions In Newark are named In his memory,
while a monument in Military Park bears
testimony OF the love of Newarkers for
the daring Jersey cavalry leader, who lost
his life while fighting for his country.
Kearny was a graduate of Columbia. and
studied law, but gave il up before the
Mexican Wal to become a soldier. When
General Scott's army entered the City Of
Mexico Captain Kearny was the first man
in. and he was made a major for his
bravery dlElayed there.
lie left the army later, but returned
when the Civil War broke out. and was
assigned to the command Of the First New
jersey Brigade. Later he was placed IN
Of the Third division of the
Army of Virginia. At ChantillS, Va. in
July. 1852. while accommodating after plac-
ing hiss division, he penetrated the Con
federate lines and was shot.

FOOD AND MEAT IN
SPECTI0N AVIS SOURCE
OF GREAT GOOD.

Those who fear, from any reason, the
extension of Federal activity will do well
10 study the history not only of the ma
tional banking act, but of the pure food
law, and nothbly the meat inspection law
recently enacted. The pure food law was
opposed so violently that its passage was
delayed for a decade, yet it has worked
unmixed and immediate good. The meat
inspection law was even more violently as
sailed, and the same men who now de-
nounce the attitude of the National Gov
eminent in seeking to oversee and control
the workings of interstate common car
riers and business concerns. then asserted
that We were 'discrediting and running a
great American industry Two years have
not elapsed, and already it mas become
evident that the great benefit the law con-
fers upon the public is accompanied by an
equal benefit to the reputable lacking es-
adjustments. TIL latter are better off
under the law than they we're without 1t.
The benefit to interstate common carriers
and business concerns from the Legislation
l advocate would be equally marked.
Incidentally, in the passage Of the pure
1000 law the action OF the various State
food and dairy commissioners showed i'm
Striking fashion how much good for the
whole people results. from the hearty CO.
operation of the Federal and State officials
in securing a given reform. 1t is primarily
to the action of the State commissioner
that we owe the enactment of this law; for
they aroused the people, first to demand
the enactment and enforcement of State
on the subject, and then the enact
ment of the Federal law, without which
the State laws were largely ineffective.
There must be the closest coopration be-
tween the national and State governments
In administering these laws.

ENFORCING THE FEDERAL
LAW AS IT AFFECTS
WEALTHY OFFENDERS.

"A few years ago there was loud com.
plant that the law could not be invoked
against wealthy Offenders. There Is no
such complaint now. The course OF the
years has been such as to make II evident
that no man stands above the law, int
no corporation is so wealthy that II can
not be held to account. The Department.
against the wealthiest malefactor whose
crime was one of greed and cunning as to
proceed against the agitator who lneites
to brutal violence.
Everything that can be done Under the
existing law. and with the existing state
of public opinion, which so profoundly in
fuenees both the courts and juries, has
been done. But the laws themselves need
strengthening In more than one Important
point; they should be made more definite,
tingly to break them, and so that the real
wrongdoer can be readily punished.
Moreover. there must be the public
opinion back of the laws or the laws
themselves will be Of no avail. At pres
ent. while the average iuryman undoubt-
is quite ready to fine the corporation
itself. he is Very reluctant to find The
facts proven beyond a reasonable doubt
when 1t comes to sending to jail a member
of the business community for indulSinS
in practises which are profoundly I'M
healthy. but which, unfortunately, The
business community has grown to recog-
nize as well-nigh normal. Both the pres
ent condition of the law and the present
temper of iuries render 1t a task of ex-
IRENE difficulty to get at the real wrong
doer in any such case, especially by I'M
prisonment. Yet 1t is from every stand
point far preferable to punish the prime
offender by imprisonment rather than to
fine the corporation, with the attendant
damage to stockholders.

REVENUE SATISFACTORY;
OPPOSES IMMEDIATE
CHANGE IN THE TARIFF.

1.-The income account of the, nation is in
a most satisfactory condition. For the
six fiscal years ending with the LIST of
July last, the total expenditures and reve-
nues of the National Government, exclu-
stve of the postal revenues and expendi-
lures, We're, in round numbers, revenues,
~, 100, 10000, and expenditures, 50, 215, 900, 00O.
The net excess of income over eSpendi-
lures, including in the latter the fifty
millions expended for the Panama Canal,
was $3.50, 600, 600 for the six years, an
average of about thirty-one millions u
year.
This represents an approximation be-
tween income and outgo which It would
be hard to improve. The satisfactory
working of the present tariff law has been
chiefly responsible for this excellent show
ing. Nevertheless, there is am evident and
people that the time is rapidly approach
ing when our system of revenue lcgisla-
ton must be revised.
This country is definitely committed to
the protective system and any effort 10
uproot il could not but cause widespread
Industrial disaster. In other words, the
principle of The present tariff law could not
with wisdom be changed. But In a country
OF such phenomenal growth as ours 1t Is
probably well that every dozen years or so
the tariff laws should be carefully scruti-
nlzed so as to see that no excessive or inn
proper benefits are conferred thereby, that
ropcr revenue is provided, and that our
foreign trade is encouraged.
There must always be as n minimum q
tariff which will not only allow for the col
lection of an ample revenue, but which will
at least make good the difference In cost OF
production here and abroad; hat is, the
difference In the labor cost here and
abroad, for the well-being of the wage
worker must ever be a cardinal point of
American policy. The question should be
approached purely from a business stand
point; both the time and the manner of
the change being such as 10 arouse he
minimum of agitation and disturbance ia
the business world. and to give the least
play for selfish and fractional motives.
The sole consideration should be to
see that the sun total of changes rep
resents the public good. This means
that the subject cannot with wisdom
be dealt with In the year preceding
"A Presidential election, because ms a
matter of fact experience has concIu-
sIveIy shown that at such a time 1t Is
Impossible to get men TO treat IL from
the standpoint of the public good. In
my Judgment the wise time to deal
with the matter is Immediately after
such election.
