THE HOOK TO HANS SUSPICION.

The arrest OF John W: Mcnamara,
International secretary OF the Bridge
and Structural Iron Workers of Amer
hitting the Los Angeles Times building
and ether oatrages of similar character
is the beginning OF great legal
struggle if not OF widespread and das-
perate labor difficulties. f the charges
shall be sustained Mcnamara Is SIM
ply another Harry Orchard, an assas-
sion by wholesale. But to assert is
Tot to establish:
There ,s need for the exercise of
sober Judgment In this case. It should
not be permitted to become the battle
ground Between non-unientsts and I'M
ientsm. II sfcNsmara is guilty union
ism In good citizenship must repudfate
him and aquiesee in his punishment
If not nen-unien rancoF should not be
permitted to railroad him. NO good
will come of unsustained charge and
counter charge between warning fac
ton:
Los Angeles Is the battle-ground of
unionism and non-unionis1n. 1t IL war
there, war to the knife and knife to the
hilt. The explosion in the Times plant
and the dynamiting Of the Llewelyn
Iron Works In Los Angeles and other
outrages in kind elsewhere have been
freely charged against the structural
workers unions and have the negative
confederation that all have occurred to
non-union plants and in the course of a
bitter labor controversy. All this has
had IT'S effort on the public mind else
where as in Los Angeles. The tendency
of the circumstantial evidence will not
be to McNamara's favor However
guiltless he may be the recurrence of
outrage has in degree prepared the
public mind to his disadvantage, dis
advantage which he must bear and
nore's the pity which unionism must
share with him.
Violence aid the violent are the chief
mistakes Of organized labor The time
is coming when labor organlza tons
viii in their own protection and for
their own good name weed out the vio-
lent ard prosecute violence. Otis may
be pursuing his private vengeance,
Burns may be earning pay by conceal
ing dynamite in order to find 1t again
and by bringing falsec harges. If this
is SO 1t would be the part Of wisdom
to consider how and by whom the hook
upon which to hang false accuse ton
was furnished. No organization can
furnish strong esupicion Of violence
and outrage and endure with credit.

MORE MOORE VS.. HOLDEN.
THornfon rhroniofc1


Representative r. r. Moore. OF Cedar
Rapids, made dirty and uncalled for
attack OF Professor P. G. Holden, Just
before the Iowa legislature adjourned.
Those we'll informed knew that the at
tack was inspired by members OF the
state educational board who were teal-
GUS because the Ames professor stood
head and shoulders above them IN the
admiration and esteem o. the people OF
the state. An article under Cedar
Rapids date line in the daily papers
yesterday fully demonstrated the fact
that the matter vas correctly sized up
by the friends Of Mr.. Holden. The ar
ticle says that all requests for appro-
priations should come before the "boarI
of educat ton; and Professor Holden
should submit. the need Of short courses
for the farmers TO the members Of the
board. and If they acquiesce then they
will submit the matter to the leg!s,a-
ture.
ANYBODY who knows anything about
the facts knows that the new educa-
tional board IS frost. dominated by
rank CORPORATION supporters who don't
care whcop about the interests Of the
farmers or for any person who advo-
Gates the interests OF the farmers. If
this educational board'-some OF he
members of which are filled with envy.
want to know what the people Of Iowa
think about the matter. Just let them
put up E. r. Moore who wants to be
governor. aeainst Professor Holden. for
the same position. and the voters of the
state will decide the matter. They viii
find that Holders great work for the
people OF this state will find apprec,a-
ton by an overwhelming majority In
his favor. Let the state educational
hoard trot out it candidate and give
the farmers OF Iowa a whirl on this
proposition.

PEACE IN MEXICO.

There Is now gratifying prospect
that peace will soon be agreed to by the
warning elements in Mexico. There has
really been but little war. Conditions
have doubtless been such in Mexico
as to warrant protest on the part OF
the people. Diaz is an old man, very
old. With advancing years he has be-
,,,oo Inclined more and more to de-
pend upon others and to seek quiet
rather than activity. Under this sort
Of administration abuses have devei-
oped which need remedying. And to
bring about these things the revolu-
tton has been of some service. Very
likely It was the quickest and most
effective method of calling the at
tention OF the Mexican people and the
world to real conditions.
But Mexico is in for long tute-
iage fn self governne nt. The coun-
try has an admirable constitution but
its people, the great body of them,
are uneducated and lily adapted by
Temperament to self control. Besides,
they have little disposition to acquire
education Diaz has been a remark
able ruler: he is a remarkable man.
It will be fortunate for the country II
his successor shall be equally wise
and firm.
It would not be surprising II future
troubles Of the character of the pres
ent insurrect!on were not more fire.
quent In the country than they have
been In the regime Of Diaz. An isnor-
ant body Of citizens, foreign capitalists,
not in the country for their health or
missionary purposes combined with
governors controlled by cupidity, form
a combination rife with seeds of dis
sension.
Notwithstanding the fact that peace
is in sight, the horizon of the future
in Mexico is anything but reassur-
ing.

sympathy than these and none have
a mission Of wider service. Neither
bankers nor bar. industrial nor COM
mercial associations are entitled to a
truer or more .appreciative welcome
than the Methodists.
The Methodist church Is a marching
force, an army with banners. 1t does
things, does them earnestly, systemat-
ically and effectively. 1t is well offic-
cred and commanded, strong and ac-
tive organically, collectively and indi-
vidually. This conference is one cog
in the mighty machinery of a common
faith and united purpose which paral-
lels every line Of latitude and longi-
tude around the world
Perhaps John Wesley were he to
come suddenly back from the grave to
sit in this conference Of church he
nursed as a weakling might suffer
shock at advanced thought and theory.
Men and minds have moved on while
Wesley has slept in the odor of sancity
But he would find more of marvel and
surprise than of shock. He would lis

sus figures OF a church which he had
helped to found under contempt and in
contumely; he would hear with Won

unknown and perhaps undiscovered in
his time, Of great Methodist churches
in Japan and the heathdonl he knew,
of q mighty army of missionaries far
flung to the remotest parts of the
globe: he would sit stunned by colossal
expenditure which masses millions as
he might have counted pence and
realizing might trenble in awe at the
power Of the good genie Of his own in

And, listening, he would realize that
all that is vital in Nethodism has lived
and fourished that the things he
might miss with regret were non -es-
sentials and that the Split of Method
ism lives fresh and true as when he
stood at its birthbed. He would begin
to understand why men must die and
leave tasks to be finished more greatly
by other hands. And he would thank
