MILL OPERATIVES
MAY CO ON STRIKE
Refusal of Employers to Give
Increase Anglers $4,000
Workmen.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass. Sept. "a
strike of the 5000 or more mill oper-
atives here seems inevitable.
The manufacturers have fatty refused
IN give the 10 per cent increase in wages
asked for. The textile council has sent
a reply 10 the manufacturers, pointing
out that the increase could easily be
made under present conditions without
any loss to the corporation. The council
gives the manufacturers association
until Thursday 20 answer II ofers 10
arbltrate the wage controversy, sug-
costing an impartial arbitration board
of three, or suggesting that the matter
be placed in the hands of the state
hoard of Cancellation and arbitration.
.'It looks TO me very much as though
there would be a strike said a promi-
nent member OF the textile council. The
manufacturers evidently don't intend TO
give the 10 per cent increase requested,
which would only restore the wages to
what they were when the 10 per cent
reduction was made in April, 1905 That
was all We asked and we did not ask
il until we knew that the manufac-
turers were able to pay It."
Full power has been delegated 70 the
textile council TO order strike or IA Ike
any other action it deems best in the
matter
For six months the army Of textile
workers in this city have been agi-
tatinE the matter Of wage increase and
now the feeling Is at White heat.

WILL GO TO JAIL
FOR THEIR CAUSE
Salvation Army Women De
clare They Will Continue
Street Collections.

BOSTON, Mass, Sept. 5.-That the
women Of the Salvation Army who have
recently been prohibited by city statue
from taking collections at their open air
meetings are determined TO bring about
a revision by making jailed martyrs Of
themselves was the statement made to-
day by Colonel Clifford of the army.
The women members Of the army
realize only too well what need there
is for money just at present to allie
viate the suffering Of the poor now that
cold weather approaches" he said in an
Interview. IF the authorities continue
TO refuse to grant permits. they declare
they will take up collections as Of old,
and, If arrested, will refuse TO be bailed
out trusting that this drastic action will
awaken the public to a realization OF
the injustice done not only TO our organ
ization but TO all charities that hid open
air meetings about the city"

WASHINGTON TAKING ITS
PLACE AS A PROGRESS
SIVE CITY.

Washington is not merely the scat
of the National Government, but is
city with spirit and a destiny and an
ambition of its own. 1t is demonstrate
ing daily that it is in the front rank
of all modern municipal movements;
that its citizens are alive to their duties
and that they are ready to back up
their ideals with hard work and money.
This active civic spirit is now complet-
ing or pushing plans for events that
will attract national and international
attention We note with pride these
evidences that Washington is finding
herself.
On September q the Frank A. Nun
Eey Reliability Automobile Run will
start from here for a 300 mile trip
through Philadelphia, New York, Bos-
Ton, and other Eastern cities. More
than thirty cars are already entered
sn this years tour and the trip
will be a great advertisement for Wash
sngton as a progressive city. On Sep
tember 80. the day after the finish of
The Munsey run, the beautiful automo-
bile floral parade. under the auspices
of the Chamber of Commerce, viii give
, local car owners a chance to show their
artistic ingenuity, and present an at
trsctive spectacle to thousands of spec
tators from here and the surrounding
country. The water carnival on Sep
TENDER Is viii be an additional proof
Of activity and public enterprise.
Further cause for qualification is
found in the quick and concerted action
being taken by scientists, business men
and seronauts to secure for Washing
ION the international Aviation Trials in
1910. The suggestion that this city
was the logical place for these trials
met with hearty and unanimous re-
Spouse, and now every practical and
sentimental argument is being brought
to bear to make the idea a reality. No
other city has shown the same immedi-
ate interest in securing these trials.
The effort of tine Geographic Society
and Prof. Willis L. Moore to get the
two greatest figures in late polar ex-
plorstion, DR.. F. A. Cook and Lieuten-
ant Shackleton, as guests of honor at
the society's banquet in December also
should be heartily seconded. IF the
plan succeeds. the dinner will be one Of
the unique occasions of history and will
draw international attention upon
Washington.
This city, on account of location and
facilities, should, in many respects, be
the foremost American municipality.
And the fact that it is the seat OF gov
eminent should not dwarf its own life,
but help and stimulate it. Every means
should be used to make it model 20
other cities.

NEW ILLUMINATION SHED ON
RUSSIA'S DEFEAT.

One by one the secrets Of the war in
the far East are coming out. 1t is now
coming to be possible fully to under
stand the reasons of the successive Rus
sian defeats and the successive Japan
csc victories, reasons which a few years
ago were perceived but dimly. Kuro-
patkin's own memoirs shed a white
light on the situation. Now, another
Russian officer has come forward to
cast a further illumination over the
conditions that led 10 the humiliation
Of the great empire of the Gar. This
officer is Commander Vladimir Semen
of. who fought through the war with
the Russian navy at Port Arthur and
later accompanied the ill-starred feet
Of Admiral Rojestvensky to its fateful
end in the straits Of TsUshima. He has
written a book based. not on magma
ton. but on his own diary, which he
kept carefully throughout the war.
In his book. Commander SemenofT
pictures wildly the ominOus feeling Of
high Russian officers that disaster hung
over Russia and that her authorities
had blinded themselves TO the inevita-
BILE; the depressing influence of Viceroy
Alexief. on the Russian forces at Port
Arthur. and wherever his sphere of con
troll extended; the utter ignorance Of
the japanese plans on the part Of the
Russian information bureau; the crush
ing effects Of the sinking of Admiral
Makaroff with his ship; the distrust
between the army and navy, and the
utter decentralization Of the Russian
forces. with only the outward forms Of
discipline preserved.
One cannot scan the work Of this
brave Russian naval officer without
the feeling that the Russian forces felt
they had more TO fear from their lead
crs than from the japanese and that in
this war they were forecTdained 30 the
doom Of sure defeat. God was against
us" SAYS Semenof. II is terribl'
portrayal Of brave men drawn helpless
~ into the vortex Of A hopeless war b.
the criminal incompetency Of those
higher up.
The question is whether Russia will
profit by the experience. Signs are not
wanting that her people are slowly be-
ginning to benefit by their sacrifices.

FINDING OF NORTH POLE
WAS COSTLY ADVENTURE

Is the North Pole worth the price
wh.i has been paid in human lifeg
What will its discovery by Dr. Cook
add to the worlds knowledge, for GER
tainly the finding of it is of no practi-
cal economic value although it has been
the goal of ambitious and adventurous
men for centuries
Indescribable hardship or lonely death
in the e-bOund North has been the
fate of many luckless explorers. In
the persistent search for this tip of the
earth's axis, $50 persons lost their lives
since 1853, the year when Sir Hugh
Willoughby was lured northward. That
is the price paid for the information,
according TO Dr. Cooks accounts, that
the region of the North Pole is a
"trackless field of purple ice, devoid of
any forms of life"
In the early days of polar expedi-
tions. the desire was for a northwest
passage TO the western ocean, but this
object was superseded long ago by mere
ambition to find the pole. The value of
DR.. Cooks discovery depends mainly
upon the scientific results, which will
be beneficial to geographers.
1t has been a costly adventure, this
search for the North Pole.

UP TO BALLINGER
TO MAKE REPORT
President Taft Has Not Dis
cuSSed Controversy From
Pinchot.

BEVERLY. Mass, Sept. 5-By fer
the most striking indication of the
Presidents attitude in regard to the
Ballinger-Pinchot controversy oy 81. con-
servation and the incidental trimmings
Of the conflict came out here today.
when it was learned that Mr.. Taft has
not called on nv Pinchot for any sort
OF a report on his part in the fight.
Apparently. the Administration view
lis that Pinehot. the head Of an impor-
tant bureau in the Government service,
has gone out OF its way to attack an
other department of the Government,
and in so doing has laid itself open to
the severest penalty, IL his charges are
unfounded- The only thing possible is
for Secretary Ballinger to show that
the Interior Department has been
blameless in the conservation matters,
and IN regard 20 the Cunningham coal
claims. If he does this. Mr.. Pinchot
will be In a precarious plight
Information has reached here that
Mr.. Ballinger has not the slightest
doubt that he can show the Presi-
dent In a short while that he and his
department have nothing to conceal or
apologize for in any OF the things
brought Up by. PinChot and his follow
ing. Mr.. Ballinger is due here tomor-
row afternoon for conference with Mr..
TAFT on all the phases of the cOntro-
NerSy and the indication is now that
the President once convinced by .Ralbn-
gers showing, viii help the Cabinet Of
ncer In his performance Of killing some

Up 10 this time. the forester has been
ignored so far as calling on him for re-
ports is concerned. This is taken to
mean that ne has shot the last arrow
in his CULVER and that he must stand
aside and wait for the final verdict
The President is anxious 10 wind up
the fight before he starts for The West
on september 10. He would Ike to go
10 the western people with an aXplana-
tion OF the affair, and that Mr.. SaIlinger
mas been merely following the policy
or thls Administration, which Is TO OBJ
tam laws adequate for the carving out
OF conservation, and that this is not II
opposluon 10 the policy of Mr.. ROOSe-
Welt. Hence IL is taken for granted that
things will go along with a whoop after
/ the conference tomorrow with the
chances for a Shake-up in the forestry
service very great.
The President attended divine services
today at the Unitarian Church here in
spite Of the fact that driving rain was
falling all the forenoon. He was accom-
panied by his aid Captain Butt. and the
two men wrapped I'm OverCoats and rain
coats made hurried trip from the cot
tage to the church in the big, touring
car. The Rev. Benjamin Buckley. the
regular pastor preached today for the
hrst time since Mr.. Taft came here for
his vacation.
Gen Clarence r. Edwards. head Of
ment. who Is visiting on the North
Shore will call on the President this
afternoon. Another caller will be Bishop
Van Buren,, OF Porto Rico.

A STEP FORWARD IN SOUTH
ERN LITERATURE.

From Raleigh. y. c., comes the inter
esting announcement of the publication
each month OF a historical and literary
review to be called The North Caro-
lima Review. The publication has
among its editors some of the ablest
scholars and literary men OF the uni
versities and colleges of North Caro-
lima. It's avowed purpose is to stimu-
late the study of the history of North
Carolina and the making of literature
by North Carolinians, while at the same
time giving attention to what is going
on in the whole world of letters.
The new venture is important alike
in historical and literary way. Like
many other parts of the South, North
Carolina has a richness of historical lore
and tradition that deserves to be ex-
plored and to be made familiar to
readers and students. Few richer fields
Of history can be found IN this country
than North Carolina. from the days of
the Huguenots. through the period of
the influx of the English and Scotch
Irish settlers. in Revolutionary times
and in more modern times In liter
airy way, the new publication is one of
the signs of the awakening in letters
throughout the South. Success ought
TO attend it from the outset.

AWARD OF COMMISSION AS
TOLAND SOUTH OF AVENUE.

II is inevitable that there should be
more or less contention over the award
of the commission which has been
charged with the duty of fixing the
value Of the property in the five
squares bounded by Pennsylvania ave
nue. and the Mall, Fourteenth and Fiji
teenth streets. The amount Of the
award as reported by the commission
70 Justice Anderson is S2.459g3I .OS.
This is below the amount allowed by
Congress for the purchase Of the ground
and some Of the property owners are
taking the position that too low a
valuation has been placed.
It hardly could be expected in an ap-
praisement of this magnitude that
everyone would be satisfied. It is to
be hoped. however, that way will be
found 10 end whatever differences there
sre without needless delay Talk is
heard that the transfer of the prop
erty 20 the Government may be delay
ed az long as three years by court pro-
ceedings. This would be unfortunate
for the city. The Government has set
about 10 obtain this land in order "a
construct thereon suitable buildings for
the Departments Of State. Justice. aui
Commerce and Labor. II is not to be
doubted that these buildings when con
structed will be a magnificent addition
TO the city OF Washington. II is quite
likely they will be the equals OF any oi
the Government structures in Washing
ton aside from the Capitol and the Ii
brary Of Congress, which are in a class
BY themselves.
The construction Of these buildings
south Of Pennsylvania avenue will be a
long step toward the contamination OF
that great project for the building uF
The Washington times., 1909-09-05

and identifying of the whole stretch of
property from the Treasury to the Cap
itol grounds, between Pennsylvania ave
nue. and the Mall. Every citizen of Wash
ington ought TO he anxious to see this
great project made possible and got
well under way. Moreover, the Gov
eminent is in serious need of the new
buildings and it will be rgerettable in
many ways if there are to be long
drawn out legal controversies.

The above telegram was received at
the Munsey tour headquarters yesterday
afternoon from one Of the largest manu-
facturers Of automobiles in the country.
From the comment that has reached
here since the new Munsey rules were
sent forth last night this message NAV
be taken as a criterion Of the general
feeling among automobile makers. deal
ers and private owners. For the past
four or five weeks there has been an
insistent demand among those who
closely follow motoring contests for a
revision of the reliability rules, and the
new A. 4. A. rules, which will have
their initial try-out in the Munsey tour
are confidently expected to satisfy this
demand.
