NEW ULSTER QUARREL.

English craftsmanship has failed
so often in efforts to intervene in Ire
land that it is not surprising the con
ferences which it was hoped would
settle the Ulster question have turn
ed out to be fruitless. There is an
element in Ulster that refuses to be
satisfied with anything short Of the
present close relations with the par
liament in London, and which utterly
repudiates the very thought OF domi-
nation in any form from Dublin.
With the Unionists standing by this
element, the demand for new cleo
ton to test the opinion of the coun-
try suggests a means of escape. But
Pramier AsQuith being resolved to
prevent an election until an over
Shelming public sentiment calls for
it. an iulpasse appears to have been
reached.
Meanwhile, time may be expected

ultimate agreement. Civil. war in
twentieth century Ireland, with the
power of England arrayed against
those fighting to maintain close union
with her, would be a spectacle from
which the world could we'll be spared.

Mine Inspection Cuts
Cost of Coal in Lives

Every hundred million short tons OF
coal produced in the United States in
1912 cost 429 lives in mine accidents, or
4 total of 1850 lives. for production
OF $50, 100000 short tons of coal, ac-
cording 10 a report just issued by the
Bureau of Mines, Department Of the
Interior. This loss OF life in proper"
zion to the number of millions OF tons
mined, 429 per cent, is the smallest in
the records available at the bureau. In
1907 il SCARED to 693 per cent.
The actual number of lives lost in
1912 was less than in any previous year
since 1896. when 2,116 men lost their
lives in and around coal mines. IN 1907,
the number of deaths reached 3.l9T. Yet,
with a smaller loss of life, the prOduc-
ton of coal in 1912 was the greatest in
the country's history.
This general improvement, say the
report. "has been brought about bS i

THE PRESIDENTS PLAN.

There is not much basis for dis
agreement in the message of Presi-

riously disposed to disagree. He has
stated geneTalizations rather than
details Of policy and program. When
The bills with the details come uD
for consideration, the disagreements
will be reached
But there is not going to be very
much disagreement. The country
and business are ready to accept the
inevitable. Whether the President
intends TO have a trade commission
and also an administrative commits
sion-two in much the same field
is a very unimportant detail. That
there is going to be trade commits

functions suggested by the President
are going to be lodged with this or
with some other commission is rea-
soDably certain.

For a leader who has come tri-
Ilmphant from SO long a string of

in his message is admirable. He

Getting at the ''Inside Dope'' on
Storms, Frosts, and Floods

Many people have an idea that
there is something mysterious and
occult about the work of the Wealth
cr Bureau in forecasting the coming
storms. frosts and foods. Not
few think that the observers must
necessarily get their data by reading
me planets. the stars, and the moon.
As d matter of fact the forecaster Of
the Bureau foretells the coming of
disturbances in a businesslike way,
very similar to that in which a man
las ordered a shipment of goods
would estimate the date of its ar
rival.
Suppose a business man had or
dered a carload of pineapples from
the Hawaiian Islands. He would
know the average time it would take
the steamer to make the trip to the
Pacific port, the average time for
unloading and loading into refrigera-
tor cars. and the average number Of
days to be allowed these cars for
their trip across the continent 10

woulG be subject to error because
tic steamship might be delayed by
.fos. or. the cars might meet with an
accident
Storms, like pincapples, as a rule,
do not originate in the United
States. They come 10 US, some from

ico. The Weather Bureau gets
cable, teleGraph!c, or wireless notice
OF a foreign storm. Station after
station. or vessel after vessel, reports
the storms arrival in its neighbor-
hood, SO that the general direction
ard rate of progress can be deter
mined very early. In fact, the ar
rival of some storms can be foretold
ten days in advance.
The forccasters watch for the
region of low barometer, which Is
the storm center around which the
winds blow. This whirl or eddy
moves bodily forward with the gem

Government will neither destroy nor

can people to look forward to bright

antagonism between business and
Government is over" and because.
though there are to be business re-
adjustments to fit the new conditions,
they are to be "as few, as slight, as

CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL.

The best available information in
dicates that the effort to reverse the
high school construction program
has failed completely. There will
not even be serious delay by rea-
son of the effort of Senator Lane and
a few local mischief makers TO get
the subject reopened.
Congress, with due elaboration
deliberation, in fact, that marked its
consideration of the subject for two
years-decided in favor of the cos
mopoIitan type of high school, and
provided the money to build it.
Congress knew what il was doing.
1t was not fooled, or misIed, or man
ipulated. 1t took the bit in its own
teeth and ran away from the very
people who, in that regard, were try
ing to manage it. 1t decided that bet
ter educational work would be done,
better administration would be pos
sible, less expense would be necessi-
tated if a great central combination
school we're created; and it so or
dsred. 49,
That was all there was to the mat
ter, except that it may be worth
while to add that today Congress is
more strongly in favor of the big
cosmopolitan school than it ever was
before, and that the people of Wash
ington, having had their attention
drawn to the issue, are of the same
mind.

FREE TRANSFER FACTS.

Can the street railways in Wash
ington afford to give free universal
transfers?
They insist that they cannot.
Their lawyers assured the Public
Utilities Commission that free trans
fers would be confiscation of their
property.
They will fight free transfers to the
last ditch, in the courts, on this con-
fiscation theory.
The confiscation argument is worth
examining. Away back in 1902 there
was talk about free transfers in this
town, and it was met with the same
reply: Free transfers meant confis-
cation, and would therefore be un-
constitutional.
Suppose that was actually true in
1902, is it true now?
IT it was true in 1902, and is still
true, will it always be true? Will it
always be true, quite regardless of
increases in the earnings and profits
of the corporations, or of the infia-
ton of their capitalization?
Everybody knows that, as legal
defense against giving transfers, that
will always be the case.
If the companies were making 100
per cent dividends a year and free
transfers were going to reduce these
to 90 per cent, there would yet be
the same lugubrious vail about con-
fscation.
The other day the Census Bureau
issued some data which is peculiarly
Illuminating. It concerns the cleo
trio railways Of the District, and their
development from 1902 TO 1912.
Here is the essential fact set forth:
In 1912 the street cars carried A.
937 ,297 more revenue passengersthan
in 1902.
That was an increase of 72.5 per
cent. --.--.- .. ---
Think OF that! The number of
revenue passengers almost doubled: +:
yet the railroads still point out, ex-
actiy as they did in 1902, that to ex-
act free transfers from them would
be to confiscate their property.
If, in 1902, they had been asked
how much more business they must
have in order that they might atfori
to give free transfers, would they
have dared insist on 70 per cent
more?
If the business of these companies
approximately doubles itself again in
the next decade, will they still have
the nerve to insist that they are just
s9ueaking along on the verge of
bankruptcy, and that to give free
transfers would deprive them of
their property?
OF course, 1T is perfect nonsense
TO talk about confiscation; or, indeed,
to talk any other reason" why the
town should not have universal
transfers.
