THE LAW OF LIFE
ON THE TITANIC

Defenders of j. Bruce Ismay are
crying 'snap Judgment because he
has been universally branded a coward
by the press and people of America,
Germany and, to large extent, by the
public of England. But does not the
law of life, brought into swift operi-
tion by the disaster to the Titanic,
justify the popular condemnation II
the man who saved his own life while
1900 people persisted.
Certain it is that no man had the
shadow of right in any lifeboat before
every woman and child had been
saved, unless absolutely commanded to
enter it by one of the officers in charge
of the ship. Granted, then, that the
women and children had been carried
to safety by the time the last lifeboat
was ready to be launched-what then?
Not one of the men remaining on the
ship had particle of advantage over
any other in the matter of rights to
safety. Property rights, social rights,
class rights-all had been swept away
except the right to live, and every
man stood equal before God.
Only a rapid solution of the problem
of filing that remaining lifeboat by
means of drawing lots, for instance,
could decide the question of who
should be saved and who left to die.
The law of life compelled every
MAN to give the other fellow fair
shake. The law of self-preservation
impelled every potroon to beat the
other fellow to the last chance.
OF course, the case of the last boat,
drawn for the sake of argument is
purely hypothetical
For j. Bruce Ismay did not wait for
the LAST boat. He Cheat it' while
the going was good.-Denver Times.

TWO DENVER PAPERS, the News
and the Post, declare that Bob Speer
was properly steam rollered at the CO.
orado Springs convention. To an out
sitter it looks as though Speer won
practically every point he wanted tn
win. True, he gave up his place as d
delegate to Baltimore. but not until
after he had succeeded in electing his
man McCue as national committeeman
and everybody knows national com
mitteeman is worth dozen times as
much as Il delegate. He also workel
the convention to usurp the functoni
of state convention by endorsing the
democratic city ticket of Denver, thls
practically putting Patterson, Thomas
and other anti-Speerites without the
pale of the party if they support the
Arnold ticket. From this distance If
looks very much as though Speer is the
fellow who guided the steam roller.
He sure cut some gashes that will be
long time in healing.

ENGLISH STRIKE
COMES TO AN END
BALLOTS THUS FAR RECEIVED
SHOW THAT 1T WILL NOT
CONTINUE.

London, April 3.--Albert Stanley,
secretary of the Midlanjs Miners fed
Grafton and member of the house OF
commons, practically announced the
end OF the national coal strike in the
United Kingdom.
Addressing mass meeting of min
ers at Canuock Chase, in Stafford
shire, Mr. Stanley said that it was
now impossible to secure the neces-
sary two-thirds majority of the min
ers in favor of continuing the strike,
Mr.. Stanley has access to the figures
and knows the intentions of the min
ers' federation which are not avail.
able to the public. He advised the
miners of the Cannock Chase district
who have voted against the resump
ton of work to return to the pits with
out delay, and they have decided to
resume work tonight.

the engineers of the fifty eastern rail
roads to determine whether the engi-
neers will strike if necessary to sup
port their demands for increased

been refused and further conferences
with the heads of the railroads were
suspended until the engineers COM
mittee takes strike vote which will

Surprise at South Omaha.

South Omaha, April 3.-Thomas
Hector democratic candidate, was ell
eCted mayor of South Omaha yester-
day after one of the bitterest politi-
cal fights in the history of the city.
The complexion of the city council
remains the same with the possibil-
ity of a republican majority in
case Steve Wawryzinklewicz, re-
publican candidate from the Fifth
ward, should win out over his demo-
cratic opponent, John Badura, who
now leads by count of six votes. 1t
is lclaimed that fourteen votes for
Wawry2inklewic2 were not counted
and contest is expected.
Peter Wheeler republican candidate
for city clerk, defeated Frank Good
present democratic incumbent, by a
large majority. On the whole the old
city council was cleaned out with the
exception of John Walters, democrat
from the First ward, and John Riha
republican from the Fourth ward.
The revelation of yesterdays battle
was the return of the democratic fire
and police commissioners John Ryan
and Joseph Pivonka to power when
they are under Indictment for bribery

diately west of Hickman, Ky, which
protects the Reel Foot lake base in
several west Kentucky counties, the
White river front at Moder, Ark, and
the levees near Linda, Mo-, are giving
the greatest concern. Breaks in pri-
vate levees at Birspoint and near
Commerce, Mo, and at Hickman, KY,
have relieved the situation at Cairo
and the flooding of that city which
was threatened yesterday afternoon,
will be averted. At Hickman the
factory district where the levee broke
Monday night, is inundated to depth
of from fifteen to twenty feet this
morning and the business district is
almost covered with water. New Ma
drid, Mo-, and Columbus, KY, are also
flooded.
The gas plant and the sewerage
pumping station in North Memphis
went out of commission last night.
Early today the supply of gas was cut
off.
Until the water recedes, Memphis
will be without that commodity The
flooded area in the northern section
of the city is rapidly increasing. 1t is
estimated that 500 or more families
have been driven from their homes
and practically every plant in that
district has suspended operation.
