"Olga Steeb, a 19-year-old American

'Keefer caused Miss Steeb to be

them. His verdict as to her proficien-

1.-THE new pianiste is of German ex-

Berlin by her repertoire, playing all Of
Bach's 250 compositions from memory,

Compulsory Arbitration.

Labor day was a great success, and
the enormous crowds at the celebra-
tons in the different cities show that
the labor organizations are alive to
their opportunities. 1t so happened
that most of the serious strikes which
have existed this year were over by
Labor day, and hope for the future
filed many a heart that had been in
dire distress. Still there is the Colum.
bus street car strike and some lesser
strikes running their CHASTITY course,
which could be ended to the advan,
tage of both sides if arbitration could
prevail.
1t is encouraging to notice that
many of the speakers on Labor day
urged arbitration as the only ef1ca-
cious way of dealing with strikes; and
r logically follows that compulsory
arbitration is the radical and effective
way of securing agreements, and it Is
being successfully operated in some
countries. 1t is blotch on our civil
eaton that strikes should be allowed to
continue to the great damage Of the
public and the dire distress Of the
strikers and their wives and children
A strike has to be settled some day
why not do so before it actually be-
gins, or directly after it has been de-
cided upon?
Among the speakers Of note at the
Labor day celebration was Governor
Crothers of Maryland, who addressed
the Baltimore meeting. He dwelt upon
the Importance of labor unions, and
his advice to his hearers Is well
worthy of thought by masters and
workmen alike. especially on the sub
ject of arbitration.
Il believe in organization, said the
governor 81 don't believe we could
get along well without organization.
It is necessary for labor to organize
in order that 1t may receive justice
for itself. Labor organizations are
educational. l want to see the great
laboring classes in a position to Sc
'eure the justice that belongs to them.
They need some time for themselves
to see to their homes and to study the
great questions of government.
Il congratulate the labor unions of
this state upon their obedience to the
laws. You face the industrial prob
lens in a spirit of conservatism. The
state is with you, and number of
laws have been passed for your protec-
ton This is as it should be, for no
class is more interested in orderly
government than the laboring class.
Submit your differences to arbitration,
be willing to deal justly with corpora
tons, but stand for your rights, and
take interest in government and you
will continue to hold the respect and
support of the people at large"

fall the strings. Question of their
capacity for service seems like the
sting Of an ungrateful child. They
do not understand the currents that
move against them. They are not
mindful that age has robbed them
of the element of leadership and
that their steps follow the beaten
paths and fear to venture upon the
untrfed.

Burrows was a soldier. He an
swered the call of his country when
it had need of him. And for that we
owe and give cheerfully of heart
full of gratitude. But his perspective
was too dim and his mind too warp

A Serious Matter.

The very large growth of the cities
of the country, as shown by the census,
is a cause for disquietude as well as
generalization. II this congestion in
cities continues without a correspond
ing increase in agricultural products
the United States will soon cease to
be an exporting country, and will have
to be competing with other importing
countries for food. If such should soon
come to be the case, the sooner we
take of all tariff duties on food prod
ucts the better, so that matters may
adjust themselves before the actual
pinch comes for enough food to feed
all the people.
The high protective tariff imposed
on farm products is entirely useless
as long as we have surplus that must
he sold abroad, but directly we begin
to import ever so little, the tariff on
cattle, cereals and other food products
would add to the normal prices of
such articles, which would mean from
80 to rs per cent increase in the pres
ent high price of food.

the elder Kepner that home with his
daughters and their privileges would
be eagerly accepted by her In lieu Of
