A New Employment for MIR. Roosevelt.


The house committee on foreign af-
fairs has favorably reported a resolu-
tiOn providing for a commission
To consider the expediency OF
utilizing existing international agencies
for the purpose of limiting the arma-
ment of nations of the world by in
ternational agreement, and of con-
stiuting the combined navies of the
world as an international force for
the preservation of universal peace.
The commission, if authorized by
congress. is to be composed OF five
members, and President Taft has in
dicated that he will appoint Col.
Roosevelt to be the president Of the
commission. To head such a COM
mission would open TO the ex-presi-
dent a most inviting field for his
talents, and one almost unlimited in
its possibilities of usefulness. In no
other line of activity would it be so
easily possible for him to make his
tory. The cost OF keeping prepared
for war has grown to be a colossal
burden upon the shoulders of the tax
payers OF the world In what is fire.
quently said to be the most enlight-
ened age since the dawn of civiliza-
ton, humanity is burdened with
heavier expenses for war purposes
than ever before. The agency which
can accomplish a halt in this head
long rush into bankruptcy. in which
all the great powers are competing
for first place, will win lasting re-
nown and the thanks of all civiliza-
ton. With the possible exception of
the German emperor and his advisers,
the statesmen of the world are agreed
that it is imperative That the nations
agree to a limitation of armament. if
peace is to be made less expensive
than war There is developing a de-
cided tendency to discuss the question
whether it is practicable to assure
peace and at the same time limit war
preparations, and this is a good sign;
for the more the question is discussed
the more it will appeal to the reason
of the world The statesman who
works out the problem on a practical
basis and furnishes to the world a
formula for avoiding war and limit
will be the greatest benefactor of
civilization in this age
Mr.. Roosevelt, if this commission
is created and he is placed at the
head of it, will find that the task of
making good will be the greatest I'M
dertaking Of his career. He has never
been regarded as constructive
statesman. AS a demolisher he has
no superior in the world. Laying
about him with the big stick" of
righteous wrath against organized
wrong, he has done a momentous and
monumental work in arousing the
conscience ofah fellow citizens. But
following demolition. reconstruction is
necessary. and this is a field in
which Mr.. Roosevelt has made no
record of consequence. The tasks of
the two men compared, the work cut
out for Mr.. Taft is infinitely the
harder. And in this new line Of en-
deavOr that has been mapped out for
Mr.. Roosevelt he will be confronted
by difficulties that might well dismay
a weaker man. II he succeeds, his
success will dwarf all his achive-
ments as president.

The New Records in Flying.

The new feats of the flying ma
chine men, each setting a higher
mark of achievement, are following
each other so rapidly that it is diff
ficult to keep track of them. Within
a month, Count de Lesseps has flown
across the English channel in better
time than Bleriot made; Bleriot has
scooted from London to Manchester.
making a new record for long dis
lance flight; Glenn Curtiss has sailed
from Albany to New York at a rate
of approximately a mile a minute,
and made a new record for speed in
long distance flight. And now comes
Captain Charles stewart Rolls of the
British army, with a round trip flight
over the English channel.
The feat of Captain Rolls. per-
formed on Thursday of the past week
completely throws into the shade the
flights over the channel previously
made by Bleriot and de Lesseps. He
left Dover at $50 in the morning,
rose to a height of 500 feet and sailed
away for the French coast as grace
fully as an eagle. Reaching the shores
of France, he made a circle in the
air. and turning toward England again,
was back at Dover in 80 minutes
from the time he started, having COW
cred AZ miles in continuous flight.
Rolls made the voyage in a Wright
machine. and his feat is so far SUI
perior to the flights accomplished by
the Wrights only a year ago that
ages seem to have covered the period
between.
1t is precisely as stated by Presi-
dent Taft the other day While ex-
pressing his great qualification at the
news of Curtiss' marvellous flight from
Albany to New York, the president
said he hesitated to describe it as an
epoch making event, wonderful as it
was, for the reason that very soon
Mr.. Curtiss or some other aviator
might do something still more mar
velous.

A Typical Case of Labor Leadership

A Typical Case of Labor Leadership.
The leaders of the striking coal
miners in Illinois have ordered the
engineers and pumpmen to join the
striking miners. Originally this con-
tingent of the working force had been
permitted to remain on duty, while
the miners themselves went on strike,
in order that the mines might be
guarded against destruction from
water Most of the mines are wet
mines" and the idleness of the pumps
for a protracted period would result
in the practical destruction of the
properties.
The question naturally arises, What
can the striking miners hope To gain
by destroying the mines from which
they gain their livelihood? Perhaps
if the question of abandoning the
mines to water while the wage ques-
ton is in controversy were squarely
put to the miners individually they
would oppose the suggestion of de-
stroying the mines But the trouble
is that the miners-the men who are
directly interested in the strike-do
not control the strike. 1t is controlled
by the leaders, who will suffer no in
jury if the mines are ruined and the
miners are permanently deprived of
employment. These agitators can
move on to other states, there get
their stipends for leading" the work
ingmen. and felicitate themselves that
they have won" another strike But
the poor miners, like the mine own
ers, will be the losers.
is fair TO presume that there was
merit in the contention of the miners
that they were insufficiently paid. At
any rate, such presumption is borne
out by the fact that the mine oper-
ators offered to pay the same advance
as has been offered and accepted in
the other coal states of the middle
west This offer has been rejected
by the strike leaders, however, and
the pumpmen and enginemen ordered
out. Meanwhile, an interesting side
light on the motives of the strike
leaders is gained from the statement,
made by members of the miners
union, that the refusal of the leaders
to accept a settlement of the trouble
is due to politics" within the union.
John w. Walker tried to be elected
ton and failed, Lewis of Indianapolis
being elected. Walker is president of
state organization in Illinois, and the
is made that it is because
he is "sore" over his defeat that he
is carrying measures with a high
hand.
The obvious moral is that when
men go on strike for any purpose
they should keep control of their in
within their own hands, in
stead of handing it over to the pro-
fessiOnal leaders" But the average
member of a union in these days is
a sheep. and the shepherd-the paid
"leader'-is the supreme boss, al
though the rank and file may think
they are running things when they
obey orders to vote this or that way.
