Barry Enshrinsd Today. I.

Almost century and half after his briflian
exploits in naval warfare under the Stars and Stripes
the Capital of the United States grown great sincs
Commodore John Barry fought for its freedom. viii
today do reverence to his memory. The twenty
eighth President and his Cabinet and the represents
tises of foreign powers will be present when the
heroic figure in bronze in Franklin Park is presented
to Washington and the nation.
Proud of his achievements, so long without the
recognition they justly deserved patriotic sons OF
Ireland. which gave Barry to the United States
united for the purpose of perpetuatng his fame in the
Capital the result being the superb statue and, to-
days imposing ceremony. The harp and the Sham
rock will be entwined with Old Glory everywhere
when Barry is given his place among the other great
heroes of American battle valor
There may be some who will not concede to Barry
the title of father of the American navy or admit
that he outranked John Paul Jones, but none will
dispute that he was an indomitable fighter and .
brave and sagacious commander. He fought and won
when fights at hand to hand on bood-stained
decks. The navy today would appear to him as the
mighty annihitating machinery of an unknown world.
But he his place on high pedestal of fame where
he is placed today and all Americans will render him
homage no less proudly than the sons of Erin

Federal Employment Agencies.

Governments and government agencies move pom

and long time to ac-all except the army and navy
of course. That is why we must be patient with
the Federal Commission Industrial Relations, a
comparatively recent government organization which
keeps giving promise of becoming most valuable and
useful agency Several really practical Investigations
have been made, revealing inviting fields for effort
toward harmonzing relations between employer and
employed, improving conditions under which the

distribution of opportunities for employment through
out the year. The commission, through its hearings
and Investigations has collected material and infor-
nation sufficient it would seem enable it to put
some of its reforms into effect by this time Un-
doubtedly it has been proceeding along the right line
and the public should be eagerly interested in watch
ing for the tangible results ....
Meantime, the commission has begun investiga-
ton to the feasibility of project which, if it can
be carried out, may come nearer solving the unem-
ployed problem than anything hitherto proposed The
plan is to create national labor exchange under the
Department of Labor for the purpose of establishing
Federal employment Offices and incidentally regu-

the many excellent ideas which the commission has
evolved, promising the greatest material benefit.

The Halt IN Mediation.

l Evidently there is expectation irf high admins
tration and mediatory circles of important develop
ments in Mexico within the next few days, and il
would not be too great stretch of the Imagination
to discover the possibility that events may make
impossible unnecessary any session Of the mediat-
ors at Niagara Falls. The two days postponement of
the first session, from Monday to Wednesday, sig
nihcant Something that will influence the mediators
deliberations is regarded imminent; otherwise the
program would hardly be disarranged to the extent
of mere two days. .
Undoubtedly the capture oi Tampico by the rebels,
though had been expected brought us face to- face
with fresh complications affecting relations with
the rebels. If blockade the port seize the
tomshouse Villa would doubtless regard it an act
of war, as Huerta did when We took Vera Cruz; and
if we do not we become in measure the allies Of
the rebels in permitting them to receive munitions of
war for use against Huerta in Mexico City. There
indications of negotiations under way with Villa,
for what purpose may only be surmised and this may
be the explanation of the postponement of the meet
ing of the mediators
Were it not for the fact that frequent reports of
similar nature in the past have proved unreliable
it would be natural surmise that the elimination of
Huerta from the situation is so near at hand that
it has been deemed advisable to defer the formal
meeting of the mediators until time when it will be
altogether unnecessary to consider the present die
tator factor.
Increased irritation and impatience with Huerta is
proclaimed rather than concealed by the administra
ton and this, too may be taken preparatory sig
nal of some new step in contemplation. 1t is not
plain that Huerta has committed any act in the recent
past call forth fresh resentment There has been
no persecution of outrage upon Americans by his
orders, so far known, and what has happened
since our seizure of Vera Cruz creating situation
bordering on actual war, only to be expected.
While any sort of an alliance with the rebels would
be deporable and United States support of Villa for
the Presidency of Mexico unhinkable, the elimination
of Huerta, if that is unalterable policy be
regarded real progress, and the people will not
worry much about how it is accomplished. The
President, however, will not be able to justify his
fourteen months crusade against murderer if in
the end, when he succeeds in deposing him, he in
stalls another murderer in his place.

The Nerve Of william Sulzer.

The champion nerve specialist is undoubtedly the
Hon. William Sulzer, ex-Congressman and impeached
governor of New York. After his impeachment he
went about the country relating his troubles and
charging an admission fee. Then he tried to get
the legislature to appropriate $4,000 to defray his
legal and other expenses incurred in resisting i'm
peachient which the legislature has just refused to
do. Men who spend large in proving themselves
innocent of crimes Of which they accused often
win public sympathy, but the claim OF a guilty man
for reimbursement is altogether unique
