WAR AND INTERNATIONAL LAW.

THE deplorable situation resulting
from the destruction OF the Lusitania
raises again the question whether
there is any such thing any longer as
international law. The libraries and
systems Of teaching hat have grown
up under that title seem today to have
vanished into thin air.
There are in any collection of hui
man beings a great many who observe
laws only from fear of force. Plenty
CT men would steal and kill did they
not fear the penalty. But there is no
penalty for breaking international law.
An international police force may
some day maintain by force the va
lidity OF such codes of rules as may
be agreed upon, but it may be many
years before any such force can be
created.
A strong public sentiment is always
enormously helpful in maintaining any
kind Of a code. In business life, law
is not the only thing hat keeps the
banker or the merchant honest. They
know that trickery will hurt and per
haps ruin their business. Consequent
ly the great bulk of every day business
transactions are square and one the lev
ell, not so much from fear of law, as
from fear of public sentiment and loss
of reputation.
In he matter of keeping national
agreements, sentiment seems less well
defined. Formerly no nation ever
they were contrary to its interest. Dur
ing the past century there has been
n decided advance in this particular.
But Europe has always scaffea at such
promises. When the United States
promised to retire from Cuba, few of
the foreign diplomats believed the
pledge amounted to anything. But it
did. Yet there are plenty of people in
our country who would favor the
breaking OF any national pledge, if
they felt it would temporarily help
American interests.
Here then appears the task Of each
citizen in the present world catas-
trophe. 1t is to do his share to Gre
ate public sentiment in favor of the
most rigid keeping of national agree
ments. Breaking of international law
should become as disgraceful as steal
ins money from a bank. Let 1t be.
come a point of honor, to support no
man for United State office unless he
has a clean record on this world issue.

llataeld,s Address.

. Governor Hatheld's address before
the West Virginia Coal Mining Insti-
tute at Fairmont. which is published In
full In today's Telegram. shows him
frank and friendly to that assemblagc.
He did not hesitate TO tell the institute
that within Its organization there were
a few men who had II in" for the chief
executive OF the state, but he was glad
to realize that such spirit was not
general among its members. The gov
ernor emphasized the fact that he had
meant to be n true friend to the coal
industry and that he realizes that the
industry needs the corporation OF the
people. However. the governor point
cd out that no and the state admins
tration had not overlooked other in
dustrics OF the state rs 1t was for the
states best welfare that they all be
encouraged in all legitimate ways pos
sible. -
In this connection II is not out of
place to state that in addition to bring
ing the Paint Creek strike to close.
Governor Hatfield settled the New
,hlver miners strike In three DAYS.
That strike OF 10000 men followed
closely the end OF the Paint Creek
strike. It was declared July 3. The
coal operators appealed to the COVER
nor. He took the matter up with tho
miners. July the strike ended as n
result OF his personal efforts. What
other man ever settled a strike In go
short time? That was certainly n
mastery achievement on his part.
when 1t is considered that n pro-
iongation OF the strike would have in.
yolyed the entire Pocahontas coal re.
gion and brought about condition.
similar TO those in Colorado, to which
labor troubles were Immediately there.
Gfter transferred and one OF the worst
strikes In history cnsued. That nc
complishment alone saved the people
OF West Virginia much trouble and
money.
Indeed. the records show that Gov
ernor Hatfield has been true friend
10 the coal industry and when II is
understood. as 1t should be, by the
people that his course in that respect
has been consistent with the best pub
lie policy and for the equitable inter
ests Of all concerned. including in
dustrlal development and the welfare
OF the citizens OF the state. calumny
that has been and is being hcaped
upon him will appear without the

Another Shift of Opinion.

Tho presidents inviting Of Senator
Gallinger and of Representative
Mann to discuss legislation Is evil
dence on another shift OF opinion on
his part. In his indianapolis speech.
last winter, Mr.. Wilson spoke OF
those who were then opposing the
Wilson-McAdoo scheme for the pur-
chase Of ships and said that they
were blind, misguided or ignorant.
Senator Gallinger and Mr.. Mann were
among the opponents of the ship-pur-
chase bill. Under Senator Gallinger's
leadership the measure was beaten
after the administration had jammed
1t through the HOUSE. Neither Sena-
ator Gallinger nor Mr.. Mann has
changed his opinion in the meantime.
Yet the president seeks to consult
with these blind, misguided and ig-
norant men!
Mr., Mann says that the president
Is in need not only OF Republican
votes but of Republican brains to
help him out OF his present position.
This Is true-but the wonder is that,
after having used such language re-
garding the Republicans, the presl.
dent should now be seeking their as.
sistance.
