SHES AT STRIKE LEGISLATION

Some members of the New York legislature have
asked Governor Whitman to call an extra session to take
steps to prevent to end the strike if declared before
the legislature meets and to adopt measures that will if
possible prevent future strikes The governor does not
seem to take kindly to the dea and he is not to blame
considering the amount of criticism that has been heaped
the president by his opponent over the settlement Of
the railroad strike. Governor Whitman recognizes the
fact that matter what the legislature should
take and he approve, that it would be club with which
his enemies following in the footsteps of Mr. Hughes
could beabor him. The governor does well to shy at the
movement He should call in Mr. Hughes instead for he
to be the only person who knows just how strike
should be prevented and unfortunately so far has re-
fused to take the public into his confidence and show how
it can be done. Perhaps Governor Whitman can per-
suade him to open up

that remedy would be to have the printers get to-
gether and start paper factory of their The idea
is good one for to make many of the country papers

humorous side of the proposition does not to strike
the professor of journalism that when such organiza

To Be Made at ConSiStory

Rome, Sept. 27.-It is now practically
certain that no new American cardinal
will be created at the papal consistory
to be held in November. Archbishop
Hanna, of San Francisco, it had been
stated, would receive first considera-
tion if another American was awarded
the red hat.
The date of the consistory has been
set for November 20-27. 1t is rumored
in vatican circles that Pope Benedict, in
his alocution to the cardinals will in
