COMPROMISE EIN BELGIUM.

Ten days have been sufficient to demonstrate the sincerity of the strik- CTS in their peaceful fight for better ment of the suffra ge conditions in Bel gium, and the announcement by the government. of a willingness to effect compromise marks as a success a political strike of great national inn portance- Much is due to the man ner in which the strike was planned and carried out, while the justice of the demands could hardly fail of rec ognition though it was the delay in carrying out the promises made to grant relief which promoted the con- test. Belgium has long been in an un- easy state over the laws concerning suffrage When education and wealth are used against the workincman as qualifications for securing additional votes at election, conditions are not on basis of equality. It is not the first time that the Belgians have made demands for a change, or in fact the first time that a national political strike has been called, but it promises important changes in Belgium. Rus sia and Sweden know the meaning of such great demonstrations.
 As indicated by the governments action. the strikers will not obtain all they sought There is to- be a com promise but this means a betteFment of conditions at least. The demonstra- ton, however, and the ground gained are most favorable to the ultimate se- curing of manhood suffrage. It indf- cates the beginning of an adjustment which is bound to come.

AN IRREvOcABLE TREATY.

When Senator Chamberlain urges in H measure before congress that the Hay-Pauncefote treaty and it's prede- eessor be abrogated. as the proper method of settling the Panama canal free toll controversy, he is attempting something worse than freak legisla- tion. The canal toll regulations have been the cause of many suggestions being made to reach an adjustment and the urging of much legislation both for and against the remission of the tolls on American shipping through the canal. but this suggestion would be an admirable way out of the situation. if nations were in the habit of juggling treaties about in any such manner.
 When this country entered into treaty relations with Great Britain concerning the canal the existing doc ument was the result It immediately became the law for the governing of both countries in accordance with it's provisions and both countries are bound to live up to it's provisions. if national honor amounts to anything and peaceful conditions are to be main tained and urged. This country can not end such a treaty without the consent of Great Britain. It is a diff ferent treaty than that was with Rus sia fin which provision was made for ending 1t. and which was followed when the desired time came What the country must do is to live up to the terms of the treaty. but if there is a misunderstanding concerning any of them there should be an interpretation of them through arbitration. The coun- try is not going to be helped by mak- ing things great deal worse which would surely follow the Oregon sena- tOr;S n1ao

coMMERciALrzEp WAR scAREs.

There is nothing surprising about the fact that Germany and France are much disturbed over the alleged rev. elations of the existence of a. com mereialized war scare between the na- tions for "the purpose of making bus iness for the great Krupp gun factory. Such efforts to keep nations in a ner- vous state and making constant pro- visions for resisting any faneiee in roads of the other is bound to make business better for the makers of war ma terial, but it operates to the detri- ment of the nations. Not only does it agftate against peaceful conditions but it means a constant and a huge drain upon the resources of the eoun- try and a taxation of the people to an enormous extent which ought to be avoided. and which if the revelations are true can be.
 It was but recently that it was de- clared that the tax upon the Krupp business to meet the demands for a quarter of a billion for increasing the army would amount to twenty millions but what a willing contribution that would be if in return increased bus mess to many times that amount re- suited. This makes the stirring up of war talk matter of business, and if true gives a plausible excuse for the continual keeping to the front any sentiment in behalf of trouble. The desire for money leads to strange acts but of all. the preaching of war and encoura ging such sentiment for profit is the worst and should be promptly diSpOnra oe6

HER GUEST

But where was the guest? After three. months of residence in her new home she had never turned down the
 Marseilles spread nor put flowers in
 the rainbow glass vase, nor brought out the guest towel that she herself
 had embroidered. Of course, all sorts or imaginary persons had occupied the
 room and had expressed themselves as having slept the sleep of the just and of Infancy, and of having felt a strong
 desire never to be obliged to emerge from the rose colored comforter and
 the Marseilles spread that covered it.
 Sometimes the guest was a cousin
 whom she had known in her childhood and who had gone through Harvard
 and was now practicing law in Bos- ton; the rose comforter and the
 Sesame and Lilies" would be none too fine for him. Then again it was old friend of her fathers, an aris- tocratic woman, who had visited them in the days of prosperity, and who, being literary in her tastes, would be sure to appreciate the quality of the quilt and to bounce upon the Sesame and Lilies
 One day. minute after she had closed the door on the grocer's shabby boy, who had consented to deliver her groceries after she had returned home at night. she heard a crash on the back porch and the sound of some one falling. She opened the door quickly ana turned the electric light upon the white face of the boy who but mom- ent before had been explaining to her why he had brought white cornmeaI instead of the yellow she had ordered Now his face was as white as the meal and he looked as if he would never again deliver groceries.
 He was only a mite of a boy and she had little difficulty in getting him into the guest chamber and on top of the Marseilles spread, where he re- mained until the arrival of a strange doctor who ordered that he be placed under this pr;zed eoverlet and that he remain there until able to be removed 1 to his home. That was not until the end of the second week
 These two weeks she declared to be ! the happiest of her life, though the guest who occupied her spare cham 1 Der showed no interest either in books | or bouquets. After he had gone she ] used to love to sit alone in the little 1 rocker, staring meditatively at the | backs of the books and at the roses | on the wall.
 But this is not all of the story. She | married the doctor and turned her 1 back forever on the little room that l never knew the presence of an invited | guest Yet she says that the spare ! chamber more than fulfilled it's pur- pose-it brought into her life guest 1 who remained.-Chicag News.
