MOTHER OR GRAND.
MOTHER. WHICH?

Our Canadian cousins across the
boundary line are nothing il not loyal.
In fact their loyalty at times runs close
ly to the ridiculous and absurd. Their
loyalty is occasionally 80 sublime that It
slops over.
It is only q couple Of years ago they
turned down free market for their farm
products in this country almost entire
ly on the score ofloyalty. The theory
appeared to be that any farmer who
would trade with Yankee was q dis
loyal subject incidentally, there CROP
ped out the general fear and conclusion
that il q Canadian made trade with a
Yankee that the former was sure to get
the worst of the bargain.
just now, the whole Dominion is in q
state Of ferry about building war.ships
for the mother country. These war.
ships are expected to cost about e35 ,OO0,.
COO. and while nest of the Canadians
appear willing to spend the money, the
great fight is over whether the ships
shall be built in England or in Canada.
The Canadian government" asked Mr..
Winston Churchill, who is some big body
over on the other side of the water and
is supposed to be an authority on naval
matters, what he thought about it, and
he wrote back that as Canada had no
rolling mills or skilled workmen that
could make steel armor, and as they lad
no shipysrds, it was out Of the question
for Canada to think Of building dread
naughts
This letter was read in parliment at
Ottawa, and no tempest in teapot ever
equalled. the wind storm that ensued
among the loyal members of that august
body.

A REVIEW.

There ls an old story OF father who
gave his several sons a bundle of sticks
and bade them break the bundle, but
none Of them were able. Then untying
he gave each q separate stick and again
bade them to break the sticks which
they easily did. 1t was a lesson in the
strength and benefits of unions-and he
bade them take it to themselves.
The benefits Of organized union in al
most any direction are too we'll known
to need argument or require but brief
comment. In union is strength is trite
but true saying.
As homes and families are units in the
town and city, 50 is the town and city
the unit in the state and commonwealth.
A number of people may become high
ly interested or excited over some matter,
SO much SO that they may be willing to
do almost anything to correct or punish,
but without organization they are only q
mob. A few trained soldiers under the
word Of command can scat. .er them.
In the general way our little city has
always stood we'll together. In many of
our neighboring towns there are factions.
Churches, banks. business, disagree.
These differences enter into the social
as we'll as the business life and are very
disagreeable h themselves as we'll as de-
trimental to the town in many other
ways. Socially, educationally, religious
ly, and ir business the people Of Penn.
bina have as far as possible avoided
serious differences. Even in politics our
battles have been good d-natured.
But it sometimes takes strenuousness
Of serious misfortune to wake people up
to activity. For many years we we're
content to do business in row of old
shacks along the business streets. But
the fire fiend came along and made it
necessary to rebuild better. with the
added cost of the loss Of the old build
ings. This was great loss financially
to the city but in the end it has been
and viii be better.

Randolph Spencer Churchill, daugh-
ter Of the late Leonard Jerome OF
New York. The decree may be made
absolute in six months

were statutory desertion and miscon-
duct. The hearing lasted only few
minutes.
No mention was made in court of
the name Of the woman alleged to
have been correspondent Mr. Corn
wallis West. counsel stated, never

Judiciary committee at an early meet
ing today agreed to the Newlands
bill for amending the Erdman act in
manner satisfactory to the railroads
and their employees. Chairman Clay
ton will call the bill up for passage
when the house meets at noon.

known today when officials there
stated that Mrs. ]. Borden Hartman

ence subsequently arranged with the
help of Seth Low, president of the
National Civic Federation.
Two amendments were determined
by the house judiciary committee
The senate was expected to accept
them without delay. One aims to
make possible any construction that
would authorize courts, by injunction
or otherwise, to compel an employe
to labor. The other was to provide
details for filing the awards with
district courts.
In its perfected form the new law
would furnish machinery expected to
open up the possibilities of arbttra-

law would establish the United
States board Of mediation and con

would first use its best efforts, by
mediation and conciliation, to bring
the disputants to an agreement. Fail

New York, July 15.-The status of
the Erie railroad may be the first
question demanding solution when
proceedings are started under the pro-
posed Newlands law looking to the
arbitration of the demands of the con
ductors and trainmen against the east
ern railroads.
Erie officials said again today that
they refused to be party to any ar
bitration and the union leaders con
tend that no road can be dealt with
individually. This might deadlock the
proceedings unless one or the other
withdraws its stand, or some compro-
mise were reached.
w. S. Carter, president of the Broth
erhood of Firemen and Engine
men, met with a committee of the
union today to draw up a set of speci-
fications in which it is alleged that
the railroads have not in all respects
lived up to the terms of the recent
award in the firemen's case. This will
be submitted to the conference com
mitee tomorrow.

Washington, July 15.-Vigorous pro
tests against the retention of Thomas
e. Hayden as a special prosecutor for
the noted Diggs-C -Caminetti white slave
cases in San Francisco, were laid be-
fore Attorney General McReynolds to-
day by Senator Ashurst at the re-
quest of several California democrats.
They allege among other things that
Hayden is a friend Of the Caminetti
family.
Later Senator Ashurst stated that
one Of the protests against the selee-
tion Of Hayden was from State sena-
tor B. B. Sanford of California. At
the department of justice Senator AS
hurst took pains to say that he was
not attacking Hayden personally, but
only calling in question his experience
as a prosecutor.
