THE ENGLISH RAILROAD TERMS.

The terms of settlement Of the Eng
lish railroad dispute which the commits
sion of inquiry proposes are said to be
unsatisfactory TO the workmen who
were recently Oh strike. That will not
surprise those who are familiar with
the extravagant demands which the
men. or some of their leaders, put for
ward. but neither will it discrcdit the
sanity and justice of the commission
report. The very feature of the report.
indeed. to which the men most object is
tie one which will most strongly com
mend ii 10 the general sense Of reason
and justice.
The commission favOrS first direct ne
eotiation and. that failing, reference to
Il Cancellation board, for the settlement
of all disputes over wages and hours
and like matters TO that the men
probably will not object 1t further
recommends that threats and coercion
against "scabs" by strikers shall not he
permitted. The men would be reluctant
H. accede TO that though they might do
Sc. Then comes the crux of the whole
matter. in the judgment that, since re-
sponsibiity TO the public for the man
acement and operation Of the roads
rests wholly upon the companies, "the
companies can not and should not be
expected TO permit any interference by
their men on the subjects Of discipline
and management
That is the one point for which the
companies have most resolutely stood
and that is the one TO which the men
are most strenuously opposed. The
contention of the companies is that they
who bear responsibility shall have au-
thority commensurate with ii. so as TO
lie able TO discharge their responsibility
according TO their own judgment. The
mems contention is that authority shall
be exercised by those who are entirely
irresponsible and who cannot in any
case he called 10 account for anything
that may happen. That is to say, the
trade unions are to be permitted TO die

they are not 10 he held responsible for
the results Of their orders and the COM
panies are not 10 manage the roads ac-
cording TO their own judgment, though
they are 10 be held strictly accountable
for everything that happens.
1t is not easy to conceive a more il
logical or unjust scheme than that
which the men propose or anything
more rational and equitable than the
recommendation of the commission.
The rejection Of the report by the late
strikers would not improve their stand
ing in the sight of thoughtful and fair
minded men.

DIET AND CHARACTER.

The relation OF diet To health has long
been known. Now. however, an English
medical paper goes step further and
suggests a systematic study Of the in
1ucnce of diet upon national character
Nietzsche suggested the connection long
ago when he asserted that the world
wcariness OF the Buddhist East could he
traced TO vegetarian diet, chiefly rice,
which, we know, is deficient in nltrog-
enOus substances. Since the German
philosopher wrote, the rice-eating Jap
anese have demonstrated what amazing
energy nation can develop on such
diet. but It is significant, none the less.
that the imperial government introduced
meat ration among fits armies in the
field during the war in Manchuria.
Here. then, is another subject for
scientific inquiry. and perhaps another
possible means for the control OF ma
tional evolution. What influence. for i'll
stance, has a potato diet on the chaiac-
ter Of the poor OF the nations Of north
ern Europe? In what measure is the
Boston bean Responsible Tor the superior
virtues OF that city's population? What.
If any, is the relation between the ir-

ANOTHER CORRUPT LIBELLER"I

ANOTHER "CORRUPT LIBELLER"P
Mr.. william j. Burns should have a
care. II might he all right for him to
talk about vice and graft in San Fran
cisco, or Seattle. or the Ohio Legislat-
ure But what right does his detective
experience in those places give him TO
come TO New York City and talk about
1ammany Hall after this fashion?
Tammany Hall can he cleaned up just
the same as the others We're cleaned up.
Whenever there is strong enough public
demand for it. and any one is ready for
me to undertake the job, | will do IT.
Show me an honest man who wants to
clean his municipality Of graft and !
will show him how.
One of two things evidently is the
matter with Mr.. Burns. Either he has
been listening 10 the words of corrupt
libellers." or his head is full Of vice
and crime" Does he appreciate the fact
that he is mudslingng. that he is ma

be perilously near to becoming cor

that Tammany Hall is only the local or
New York County Democratic organiza-
tion. for Mayor Gaynor has said so?
Does he not know there is no vice, no
graft, in this city, for Mayor Gaynor
has said so? It is evident that the
Mayor will have to send TO Mr.. Burns
an epistle similar to the one he wrote
to the Long Island Baptist Association,
which thought its committee had dis
covered vice in Brooklyn and so re-
ported TO the Mayor:

sir: The Bowery Mission is engaged IN
the work of obtaining employment for the
many unemployed men who throng the city

placed in possession of such Jobs.
This work entails great expense, as nearly
every man who applies is destitute. Many

quite sick. The mission gladly undertakes

qualified physical condition TO do the work
expected of them.

II anybody believed that the out
ra geous Murphy -Gaynor charter tor
New York City which Tammany Han
tried 10 lam through its Legislature tnls
year had been abandoned, Tammany
itself has furnished proof TO the con
trary. The Citizens Union some time
ago communicated with each candidate
for member Of Assembly in this city
seeking to learn his views on the mat
ters embodied in that charter lie was
asked 10 subscribe 10 a statement pieds-
ing himself against any change In the
charter until new city administration
is installed. against taking from tne
Board Of Estimate its control over the
budget. against giving the Mayor power
10 override the decisions of the Board
Of Estimate. against a political school
system and against weakening of the
merit system in the civil service. The
response from Republican and fusion
candidates was general. They sub
scribed TO the pledge. OF the siNty-three
Democratic candidates, only two signed
the statement. and they are Brooklyn
ties running with Independence League
Endorsements.
Tammany has not abandoned that
charter. Tammsny's candidates dare
not take any stand against it. for they
know they will have to vote for il next
year if Murphy and Gaynor have their
way. If Murphy should retain his con-
troll Of the Assembly he would use that
fact as evidence Of public approval of
him and all his deeds The charter
would be introduced next year as full OF
iokers and opportunities for fat graft
az il was when il first saw the light this
wear. Tammany cannot afford to aban-
den that charter. with its promise Of
contracts and jobs and political ag-
grandzement. It's passage was STAYED
of this year only by a vigorous and
long-continued fight against Murphylsm.
Any citizen who votes the Murphy ticket
this year helps TO undo the result OF
that fight and aids Murphy to saddle a
vicious ripper charter on this city next
wear.

SUBJECT 70 THE RECALL.

"The Des Moines Register and

satisfactory explanation of the absence
of Senator Cummins and other Western
Progressives from the recent La Toilette

able 10 attend that gathering: neither
did his colleague, Mr.. Kenyon. Other

IT appears from this explanation that

That the revolution in Mexico which
displaced Diaz as President and substl-
tuted Nladero did not unsettle business
10 an material extent is indicated by
the returns of that countrys foreign
trade for the fiscal year 1901, just
made public. The revolution began TO
be active in December. 1910, and culmi-
mated in the spring Of 1911. II would
have been natural To expect a shrinkagc
Of business activity and n diminution
OF imports and exports while the polit'
ical crisis which resulted in the enforced
retirement of Diaz was acute. But the
impending change in the Presidency did
not throw Mexican merchants into
panic or discourage foreign merchants
from shipping in goods. The imports
for 191O-11. valued at sos. $50. coo, were
larger by nearly Sl1,000.0OO than those
S293 752 600. were nearly S34,0OO,OO0
larger than those for the year preceding.
No symptom of business stability
could be more favorable than this steady
gain made in foreign trade during a year
of political turmoil. ON the surface
Mexico was greatly wrought up over the
downfall Of the Dlaz system and the trl
umph of the new order, representing
greater political freedom. But the
change was not interpreted as threaten
ing industry or investments, for trade
with the outer world not only went on
as usual, but increased In volume. Mex.
icos present prosperity rests on a sound
Easis since the country has vast re-
sources and foreign capital is eager to
develop its mines. oil wells and rubber
plantations and to extend It's railways.
The revolution Of 1911 disclosed a solid
ity and force Of public opinion hereto
fore unsuspected. 1t has also disclosed
an admirable political restraint and
