ment or some working basis Of truce
pending further negotiations. 1t is alto
gether likely that a strike will be called
throughout the anthracite district. That
practically means the total suspension
Of hard coal mining. There will be some
attempt at strikebreaking on the part
of the operators, and doubtless stock
ades' are by this time in evidence
throughout the district as a war meas
ure; but strikebreaking seldom yields
any material percentage of product. 1t
is possible that in case of prolonged
struggle the six months supply of coal
might be extended to meet the demands
of eight months. This, however, would
not suffice for the public's needs. In
short, this country cannot be supplied
with hard coal on strike basis.
The seriousness of the situation can
nor be overstated. 1t is this very fact
that induces the conclusion that a peace
full settlement will be effected. 1t Is
difficult TO believe that the corporations
and miners will, for the lack of COM
nonsense adjustment and from pure
stubbornness of doctrine, plunge into a
struggle that will bring great suffering,
that will dangerously precipitate serious
issues between the employing and work
ing classes, and place thousands of lives
in jeopardy. The issues between the
operators and miners are susceptible OF
reconciliation. The public looks to both
sides to make such concessions as may
be necessary to effect an agreement in
season and prevent strike.

The Balkv House Team.

1t was Gen. Harrison who introduced
the figure Of the balky team, rearing and
plunging, into our politics. He scored with
it, and we have all been using it ever
since.
a balky team tries the drivers patience
At the same time it develops his phi
| losophy. A traveller on one occasion came
upon an old colored man straining every
nerve, with the aid of a long snake whip
and a longer string of profanity, to send
his four horses along in the same direc-
| ton. But the leaders insisted on facing
the wheelers, and all were in a nervous
and rebellious state.
Rather a trying situations Uncle,
observed the traveller, alphabetically.

pected there?"
I'VE amt never 'spected till we gifts

Mr.. Clark's team in the House is a
little trying on his patience. but it will
probably develop his philosophy. He did
not take the reins in ignorance Of what
was before him. He had observed the
team in other hands. Some very clever
drivers have sat where he now sits, and
had their days of woe. Mr.. Bailey, Mr..
Richardson and John Sharp Williams all
popped the whip in vain at times. The
leaders would face the wheelers and for
a season progress was impossible.
Fortunately for Mr.. Clark, the team Is
known at home. He is not expected to
make progress until 1t is made. If he
makes 1t. great will be his credit. Peo-
pie will say, CLARK is setting the pegs. He
is doing better than any of his immediate

There will be many temptations to talk,

volve the expenditure of some money

It. is eminently proper that the surplus
funds of the inaugural committee should
have been turned over to the national

businesslike prosecution of the crusade

sary to spread before the state law

now exposed whenever they undertake to

When once the case is fairly stated and
clearly understood the ratification of the
amendment is certain to be recorded.

The Hard Coal Situation.

Tomorrow delegates from the various
hard coal districts of Pennsylvania will
assemble at Scranton for the purpose of
taking action with regard to the impend-
ing strike crisis. At a recent conference
between the operators and representa-
lives OF the miners the latter were told
that the corporations would not recognize
he miners union. and would insist upon
three-year extension of the present
working agreement. which expires the 1st
OF April. No concessions were TO be
granted. The miners representatives
greed 10 lay the case before their people
and convention was consequently called
for that purpose.
Meanwhile dispatches from the anthra-
-Itc coal regions indicate that a pessimistic
spirit prevails. 1t is reported that numer-
Gus foreign workingmen are leaving the
district. this being regarded as a sign
That trouble is expected. Furthermore
there is a strong revival of strike talk,
duo. it is said, to the peremptory tone of
lie operators in refusing to recognize the
union and in insisting upon three-year
extension of the agreement. 1t is said to
be the disposition of the miners to resent
the repeated declarations of the operators
orally and in print, that they will not
WELD in the least.
AS an evidence that the operators are in
earnest. ii is pointed out In their behalf
that the various coal-mining companies
have accumulated stocks sufficient to last
more than six months, and that they are
therefore prepared for a long fight. This.
however, does not reassure the public.
From now until the LIST of October an
Ihracite coal is not vital necessity, and
a six months supply IS OF no special sig
ni6cance TO the great army of coal users.
If the operators had a supply sufficient
Tor one year the case would be different,
and the public would contemplate the pos
Sibility OF strike with greater equa-
nImity. although the price problem would
sooner or later become acute.

Maryland Day.
,m the Baltimore American.


1t is altogether appropriate that there
should have been set apart a particular
day upon which Marylanders will take
account Of themselves and of the history
of their beloved commonwealth. Mary
land day will be especially observed in
the schools and this is appropriate and
fitting. Every pupil who has arrived at
the second reader stage of his education
al progress should begin to learn some
thing of the history of his state. In the
schools Maryland day will be history day.
and, If only so much of the story of the
Calverts shall be told next Thursday as
will excite in the minds of listeners a ra-
tional curiosity to know more. the setting
aside of the day will be amply justified
But 1t is not the schools alone that will
turn retrospective glance upon the past
on the state day. Every patriotic son
of the state should review the legends
get the history Of his state little more
thoroughly soaked into him, so to speak.
Up New England way they have acquired
the habit of thinking the colonial history
of New England is practically the CO.
lonial history Of the country. Down Mary
land way we have an abundance of rea-
son for disagreeing with the New Eng
land theory.

The Change-of-Date Fund.

IL Congress will act promptly during
the present session and adopt the change
of-date amendment there will be only
one comparatively short stage in the
process of securing a clement day for
the inauguration. For there has never
been any doubt whatever of the approval
OF three-fourths of the state legislatures
when once Congress has taken the neces-
sary initiative. Some Of the legislatures
have undertaken to stimulate congress
sional action by adopting resolutions IA
voring and even demanding the change.
Many of the state executives have evinced
a deep personal interest in the move
ment. When the amendment has been ap-
proved by Congress 1t goes before the
legislatures automatically, not as a neg
ligible matter. but as something requir-
ing attention. No time limit operates to
restrict the opportunity of the legislatures
to act, for the amendment, once adopted
by Congress, remains a fully potential
proposition until finally ratified by the
requisite number of states. Thus even
though the thirty-sxth state did not give
its assent until the LIST Of March, 1913.
the amendment would be effective in sea-
son to lengthen President Yaft's term to
the specified date
Assuming congressional action during
the extra session. the amendment may
be laid before the legislatures of ten
states next January. those Of Kentucky.
Maryland. Massachusetts, Mississippi.
New Jersey. New York. Rhode Island.

the only ones scheduled to meet at that
time in annual or biennial session. 1t
is significant that the governors Of seven
OF these ten states attended the inaugu-
ration. while an eighth was blockaded by
the storm. In May. 1870 the legislature

Georgia legislature meets. Thus during
the next calendar year twelve Of the
states will have had chance at the
amendment. if Congress acts now. In
1911 all the other state legislatures will
meet. Thus there will have been full
opportunity for ratification two years in
advance OF the next Inauguration.

Kidnapping.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

The kidnapping of a child always
prompts a demand for drastic laws for
the punishment of kidnapers. The law
OF Pennsylvania fixes the maximum pen
atty for kidnapping at life Imprisonment,
and is a good law. Certainly it would be
unwise to provide capital punishment, as
has been suggested within a few days.
Undoubtedly miscreants who thus play
with life and death and bring the furies

be outlawed and blotted from the earth S
activities, but capital penalty would
probably not be more efficacious in pre-
venting kidnapping, and it would almost
