THE DUTY OF LABOR
UNIONS.

The startling admission Of guilt
made by the McNamaras in Los
Angeles last week brought to an
abrupt close what promised to be
one Of the most notable trials Of
recent years. The prominence of
the accused, the crimes with which
they were charged, involving MUIR
der and dynamiting, and the very
general interest taken in the case
forecasted a long and hotly-con-
tested trial. The prisoners, no
doubt, realized that the evidence
against them was overwhelming
and that the hope Of favorable out.
come was very remote. Their con-
fession would win sympathy for.
them were it not for the dastardly
nature Of the crimes to which they
have pleaded guilty. They deserve
the punishment. which has been
meted out to them by the court.
We are sorry for the McNa-
maras, and sorry for the cause Of
organized labor, which many, no
doubt will hold responsible for the
acts of it's agents. It is not just,
however, to impute to the labor
unions responsibility for the acts
OF the McNamaras who, in their
hearts, must have known that the
cause of labor could not be adj
vanced by the methods which they
employed to obtain redress for
whatever grievances, fancied or
real, they may have had against
capital and capitalists. The lead
ers Of organized labor, especially
John Mitchell, has expressed re-
greet at what has taken place. He
knows very well, as every thinking
man must know, that organized
labor has no right to employ such
means as those resorted to by.
these guilty men to accomplish its
purposes.
This incident furnishes an nnex-
pected opportunity for organized
labor to set itself right before the.
bar of public opinion. The result.
of the trial in Los Angeles ought
to strengthen the labor unions il
they take advantage of it in the
right way. We have nothing
against labor unions; but, on the
contrary, we believe they are nee
essary under the conditions of
modern industrial life and that
they can accomplish much for the
benefit of the workingman. There
is no doubt, however, that in their
ranks there are many unworthy
members who do not scruple to re
sort to violence in times Of indus
trial stress. Their anarchistic ten.
denotes reflect on unionism in gen
eral, and the sooner these organi-
cations repudiate such an alliance
the better. They must now see the
need of purging their ranks of all
radicals and extremists; and they
should do it quickly The country
will judge them not by their theo
retical teaching, but by their pub
lie acts; and recent events show
that some of their members are
capable of resorting to extreme
measures for the attainment Of
their ends. It is unlikely that the
McNamaras would have attempted
what they did if they did not feel
that they had the tacit approval

The FiliaI Chinaman.

Many examples of Chinese filial piety strike the occidental reader as ridicu- lous. There is the famous story Of Lao Laitsu, which Mir. R. E. Johnston repeats in his "Lion and Dragon In Northern China" Laos parents lived to such extreme old age that he was himself toothless old man while they were both still alive. "Conceiv. ing it his duty to divert their atten. ton from their weight of years and approaching end, he dressed himself up in the clothes of child and played about in his parents presence with the object of making them think they were still a young married couple con templating the innocent gambols of their infant son."
 A similar case is that of Wang P'ou, whose mother had an unconquerable dread of thunder and lightning. When she died she was buried in mountain forest, and thereafter, when violent thunderstorm occurred, Wang P'ou, needless of the wind and rain, would hurry to her grave and throw himself to his knees. T am here to protect you, dear mother" he would say. ''Do not be afraid"

A Good Sleeper.

Talleyrand used to tell an extraordi- nary story of the impassiveness of Louis XVIII. When he was minister of foreign affairs courier came to him one evening bearing unpleasant uews, and he therefore postponed the communication of it to the king till next morning, when he explained that he was afraid the tidings might have disturbed his majesty's sleep. The king replied: Nothing disturbs my sleep. as you may see from this in- stance. The most dreadful blow of my life was my brothers death. The courier who brought this dreadful news arrived at o'clock in the even- Ing. For many hours was quite overcome, but at midnight went to bed and slept my usual eight hours" The story is told by the Duchesse de Dino. Talleyrand's niece. in her mem- oirs.

Z Makino . Gunstook.

A party of men were out hunting, and an old woodsman who was with them broke his gunstock in some way or other. It was just about nightfall when the accident occurred, and inas- much as he was very anxious to do some shooting early the next morning he decided to fix up his shooting iron. Finding a walnut fence rail, he set to work. His only tools were an ax and a big pocket knife. All night long he labored vigorously at his task, and by morning the gunstock was finished and back in place and worked like a charm.
 "How did you do it?' asked one of the number, greatly surprised.
 Every easy" was this old hunters reply. "No trouble at all. Just get a piece of wood about the size and kind that you want and then whittle away all that you want whittled away. When you have all the wood cut of that you don't want you have a gun. stock. k."-Kansas City Journal,

The ancient judge sat before the scales of worth.
 Bring forth the royal treasure!" he cried, and the 'hurrying slaves poured into the huge pan sacks of golden metal, caskets of sparkling gems until 1t seemed as if all of the wealth of earth were there. Yet the balance never stirred.
 Let the learning of the ages be add ed," came the order, and tons upon tons of the wisdom of sages, philoso phers, scientists and poets was heaped upon the pile. And still the great arm of the scales remained high in air.
 "Add now the men of power and high position" said the judge, "and the scale will fall." But all in vain.

United States this would mean the presi-
dent and the Senate, or perhaps the
president and Congressl should become
binding upon both.
This would secure, in the first place,
delay for adequate consideration OF the
questions at issue, and, in the next
place, a calm and dispassionate dis
cussion Of the controversy before the
civilized world; further, the elimination
OF questions of fact and of law from
the controversy; and, finally, it would
make it easier for government to
accept fair solution of given contro-
versy if there had been popular preju-
dices against such solution.
"Some such plan as that herein sug-
gested, if enacted into treaty, would
really forward the cause of information
al peace, and vet would leave the ma
tion arbiter Of its own destiny, and
would promise nothing which could not
be performed, having regard both TO
the vital question Of national honor and,
above all, to the still more vital question
of national duty. On these two ques-
lions Of duty and honor the nation, II
true TO itself, can never be guided by
any outside body, and can pay heed only
to its own conscience and its own sense
OF right; TO fail thus 70 be guided would
mean that il was recreant TO it's duty,
not only to itself but TO the world
at large"
