EMENCEAU TO
DARE LABORERS
THREAT OF STRIKE IN FRANCE
DOES NOT DISMAY
PREMIER WILL TEST POWER OF
HIS ooVERNM EMIT
Gigantic Strides of "syndlcatiIism"
Almost Create Panic-Property
Owners Favor Rigorous
Measures

PARIS, May 4.-Premier Clemenceau
apparently has taken the bit in his
teeth and has decided to test the power
of the government to put down the
present "syndicatilist" movement, so
far as it affects state employees, even if
this involves the precipitation of the
threatened general strike.
Dangerous signs are manifest
throughout the country, and it is con-
coded generally that the belated deter
mination of the government to Vindi-
cate its authority comes none too soon.
The recent gigantic strides of syn
dicatilism" and its arrogant attitude
under the leadership of the General
Federation of Labor, with which the
various classes of state employees now
insist upon affiliating, has almost Gre
ated public panic.
The property interests of the country
will support unitedly any measures
that the government takes, no matter
how rigorous, which will end the agi-
Ntation.
The attitude of the Combes and other
previous radical governments, which
encouraged state servants to form
unions, even in the navy yards, and the
records of NJ. Barthou and M. Viviani,
respectively ministers of public works
and labor, have heretofore embarrassed
NJ Clemenceau.
Since the visit of King Edward, how
ever who, it is understood, let the pre-
mier see the anxiety existing abroad
that France was drifting into a condi-
ton approaching anarchy, M. Clemen-
ceau resolved to act.
At Nice he proclaimed the govern
ment's intention not to tolerate the
right of its servants to strike, and as
soon as he returned to Paris he began
elaborate preparations to meet pos
sible general strike.

However much the Republican
party and incidentally President Taft
are responsible for the failure of
New Mexico to now enjoy the full
blessings of Statehood, it was GER
tainly in bad taste at banquet given
in the Presidents honor at Alber-
querque, New Mexico, for one of
the speakers to accuse the President
of bad faith in the matter. 1t was
not only bad taste. but exceedingly
bad manners for the people to ex-
tend to the President an invitation
of any kind with the apparent inten-
ton of insulting him when he be-
came their guest.
We are very much in favor OF
Statehood for both New Mexico and
Arizona, and we believe both terri
tories have been the victims Of Re-
publican politics, but all this and
more would never justify discour-
teous treatment of the chief execu-
tive.while he was their guest.
Mr.. Taft's hosts have not helped
their cause in anyway and they de-
served the rebuke the President gave
them.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 81. 1909.
DON'T REPEAL THE GAMELAw.

1t is currently reported that COM
mission merchants in Richmond and
elsewhere are organizing to secure
the repeal Of the act passed by the
last General Assembly prohibiting
the sale Of cartridges, pheasants and
woodcock and that with this end in
view they are sending out circular
letters to country merchants and to
land owners requesting their CO.
operation. In our opinion these
commission men are pursuing a
selfish course, which we believe will
meet with little response from the
country merchants and absolutely
none from land owners. The pas
sage of the act in question was made
necessary by the rapidly decreasing
numbers of all kinds of game birds
and to put a check to unlawful hunt
ing. Before the law went into effect
partridges in many sections of Vir-
GINA were getting to be pitifully
scarce, and yet in the face of this fact
these rapacious commission mer-
chants would have their slaughter
and sale continued for the money
which thereby falls into their tills.
Before the passage of the act, land
owners were annoyed to death by a
horde of trespassing pot hunters, too
lazy to work, but ever ready to bag
a flock of birds for the cash to be OBJ
tanned from their sale. The law can
later on be repealed when the birds
have again become plentiful, if pub
lie sentiment demands it, but in our
Judgment it will be long time be-
fore the country land owners will be
willing to go back to the old state OF
things. We rather think the COM
mission men will get cold comfort
from these land owners and we feel
certain that none of the members Of
the General Assembly from this sec
ton will vote to repeal the law.
Every State in the Union is adopting
the most vigorous measures for the
protection of game and there is
every reason why Virginia. too long
neclectful. should do the same.
