plosives, as she lies in dry dock at Nor

holes in the hull about eight feet below

the holes were caused by the sudden
blow of a wedge Of water driven down

Take Government by Throat.

THE government employees Of France
resorted to 1t and took the government
by the throat. The executive was entire
ly dependent upon these employees for its
continuance.
When those in executive authority re-
fused to ac1uiesre in the demands. the
government employees struck. and then,
with the heIplessnesS of the government
and the destruction of all authority and
the choking Of government activities. II
was seen that to allow government en-
plnyes to use such an instrument was to
recognize revolution as lawful means
OF securing an increase in compensation
for one class, and that a privileged class,
at the expense of all the public.
Il do not think that reaSona BILE minded
trades union men who are fully alive to
the necessity for rigorous means to en-
force their rights in their controversies
with capital, and with their employers,
will fail to see the broad difference tnat
exists between their case. in which they
are contending for the bctterment Of
sh motives Of their employers. and that
are privileged NOT only in the amount of
hours of their employment, and the great
er permanency of tenure. and who serve
