ARBITRATION or STRIKES.

Having rid himself OF the trollblous
President Taft now finds the switch
mems strike on his hands. With the
failure OF the peace conferences start
ed bv governor Eberhart in Min,ae--
apolis, II. b. Perltan, president of
the railway department Of the Ameri-
can Federation OF Labor is in NASH
ington to appeal to the president and
the interstate commerce commission
for arbitration.
The Er<lMan act, which provides
for federal arbitration but permits
many appeals. is the statute which
the switehnen seem to be anxious to
invoke. Perham asked Gov. Eber-
hart to join in the appeal to have the
interstate commerce commission in-
vestigate conditions i'll Minnesota,
and if it be found that industry is in
terfered with, then to inquire why
the railroads refuse to arbitrate.
lnasmuch as the law fixes the
method Of appeal from the Erdman
act, Governor Eberhart decided that
he did not have the right to join in
the appeal for arbitration. The
switchmen, therefore, will have to
stand Oh their own legs in making
the appeal to President Taft and the
interstate commerce commission.
At distance it is hard to deter
mine the merits on either side in this
long drawn-out dispute. One fact,
however, is made clear. There is an
absolute, crying need for law con-
cretely defining methods of arbitra-
ton, each side naming one commits
siOner, the two to agree on the third,
or, in the event Of disagreement,
the government to name the third
man.
Public service corporations which
Of late have been trying to bring
about more harmonious relations be-
tween themselves and their employees
should be willing to advocate such a
measure. \ just arbitration commit
tee would quickly dispose OF any i'll
justices, whether practiced by the
railroads or by the employees.
One thing is certain-the public. AS
the principal party interested, will
not forever play the part of the in
nocent bystander, to receive injuries
from both sides. The people. through
the government, will ultimately Ell.
force the operation Of public utilities
during strikes and compel arbitration,

GERMAN PROSPERITY.

If the statistics of saving banks
may be taken as criterion of the
prosperity Of the working classes, the
artisans and laborers, male and fe-
male, of Germany appear to lie in a
comfortable way. In this country we
have no institutions exactly OH all
tours with the German system, and
we cannot therefore apply them rs
a tombstone: but in other countries
the business of these popular govern
ment banks is generally regarded as
satisfactory test Of industrial con-
ditions.
The figures just issued for the
kingdom of Prussia are very striking;
and Prussia. he it remembered. COM
ton of the empire. The savings
banks deposits at the end of 1908 to-
tailed $2,303, 250,0W. During that year
the deposits exceeded those Of 1907 by
posits over Withdrawals amounted to
s3O, 200, 900. The greatest increase of
deposits over Withdrawals was shown
in the very heart of industrial Ger
many, the Rhine province and West
phalia contributing. respectively,
$40. 75o. 900 and sl5.'NN. 900.
The returns also show that there
are slightly more than thirty savings
bank accounts to every 100 persons
OF the population OF Prussia, and that
the total number Of accounts increAs-
ed twice as fast as the rate of the in
crease in the population. Conditions
continue so satisfactorily that it is
freely predicted that the current year
will bring the total Prussian savings
bank deposits to s2.o0O, ooO. 900. OF
more than twice the amount OF the
indemnity which Germany exacted
from France on the close Of the
Franco Prussian war of ls7O-7l.
Besides these colossal figures those
of the British postotlice savings
banks. though considerable in them
selves, seem dwarfed. The total
amount due to depositors in the post
al savings banks Of the United King
dom ut the end of 1908 was ssu3,241,-
go, and the increase in 1908 over 1907
was SIS, 74O,6S5.
These statistics are worthy Of seri-
Gus consideration by economists and
sociologists. From the political point
OF view, they afford another reason
for Britain's fear Of Germany.
Among the other reasons which i'll

his cherished design Of invading Eng

ceived from his confidential agents Of
the contentment and comparative

prevailed.

ROBERT BURNS.

One hundred and fifty-one years
ago last Tuesday in cottage two
miles from Ayr, humble in all that
makes life attractive, was born the
greatest singer the world has ever
known. There was nothing in the
early life of Robert Burns to indicate
the latent fires of poetry which after
ward burst forth like the long pent
mp energy Of Il volcano.
Burns was a poet by birth and a
scholar by nature. He was trained
in no college save that Of experience
and held no degree except that OF
poetry. There was nothing III his
intellectual inheritances which mark
ed him among men. His parents
were poor and in the struggle for ex-
istence which was his from childhood
to death, he learned many of the
things, which set into his songs and
smoothed by his Tilt. have enchanted
the world whever the Scottish tongue
is heard.
AS a man the world has long since
learned to judge him in the terms Of
the last line Of the epitaph which he
wrote sor his fathers tombstone.
For even his failngs leaned to virtues side.
Cntuucated as measured by the
standards of today, he was not only
a leader in the thought of his day,
but minglng with the educated and
when patronized by them he was able
to so preserve himself that he seemed
more the patron than the patronized.
He describes himself as an "aeolian
harp strung to every wind OF heaven
and his moods and whims bear out
the idea.
The position of Burns in the pro-
gress of our literature may be defined
as a link between two eras-the last
of the old and the first Of the new:
the inheritOr Of the traditions and
the music of the past, and in some
respects the herald of the future. He
affected no style and vet his poetry
is all style. He never followed the
fashions of the century except in his
failures-in his efforts at set pane
gyric or fine letter writing. Ills
genius flowed with sympathy that
finds nothing mean or insignificant.
An uprooted daisy becomes in his
pages an enduring emblem of the
artless maid and the simple bard.
He disturbed mouse's nest and finds
in the "tim'rous bastile' a fellow
mortal doomed like himself to- thole
the winters sleety dribble" and from
it draws his oft repeated moral. III
