REGULATING WAGES AND RATES.

Announcement is made that railway
men and railroad mana gers have sig
nihed their willingness to listen TO
mediation board with a view TO settling
their differences without z strike.
If the parties to the dispute which
threatens TO involve the entire coun-
try in a disastrous check to all BUSH
ness and smother the evident return Of
complete prosperity before it gets its
growth, if the parties 10 the dispute
are wise and patriotic they will listen
seriously and not perfunctorily to sug-
gestions and proposals calculated to
bring about compromise. Neither own
ers of railroads nor employees of rail-
roads have just right TO abolish bust
ness and destroy and injure the COM
merce of the public while they fight
out a wage dispute.
The common carrier is regulated by
law. Also it - protected by law. II
disputes arises between it and those it
serves those disputes are decided by a
tribunal. The employees of a public
utility should have the same restric-
tons and the same protection. If c.
national tribunal may decide disputes
upon rate charges, investigate and de-
eide what constitutes a reasonable re-
turn to the investors in public utilitie1
such a tribunal should be able to in
disputes between the laudaole monopoly
of a public utility and those whose ep-
ployment at wages and whose continu-
ance in such employ are necessary to
the public safety, convenience and well
being. A complete iie-up of transport
tation lines on this continent is a mora,
crime whoever accomplishes it and for
whatever selfish reason. 1t should be a
crime under the statutes equally de-
volving on an employing utility and
upon its employees.
The right of privcate contract which
underlies the right of workers to quis
their work in body must give way in
the case of the public service to the
larger right Of the public to uninter-
rupted service from it's common car
riers just as the right Of private own
ership has been abridged by the pub
lie when it has interviewed and fixed
the rates which owners Of public ser
vice corporations may charge for their
public service. Those who engage IN
the public service, worker the same as
owncr, must IL time accept and fully
recognize the larger right Of the pub
lie to service when he enters the
employ of public service corporation.

and employees to accept arbitration in

STITCHES IN TIME.

The victims of the infantile paralysis
! endemic in New York are very small
number compared to the vast popu!a-
| ton of the city, but stringent regula-
ton and federal over sight are bend
ing every energy upon the disease and
| to shorten the curves" of the epidemic.
The effort is to short circuit it, to bend
it back upon itself, confine it TO a circle
enins as it goes.
And one Of the most positive of eff
forts is to prevent unnecessary travel.
Three thousand cases in New York
represent just 5000 foci of infection of
a serious disease said DR.. Bank. So
forty cases in a state or one or a half
dozen cases in a small city represent a
proportionate danger. The danger is
that careiessness or neglect will length
en- the curves into a scroll instead OF a
circle.
While the federal authorities are
regulating interstate travel out of New
York neighboring states are beginning
10 take precautions and assume state
authority. New Hampshire has no
quarantine but will keep childrn under
observation for two weeks Pennsyl-
vania guarantees only those sick with
polomyelitis. Maine will keep children
under observation. isolating strictly any
suspicious cases. Vermont will observe
children under Is for two weeks. and
parents entering the state with Chill
dren must report to the local health Of
nicer within twenty-four hours OF ar
rival No visitor from infected districts
may enter Rhode Island: inspectors at
all boats and trains will take the names
OF families with children
Iowa is far away from New York in
the number of miles, but what are
miles but minutes nowadays when an
automobile races side by side with an
express train across the continent? In
fectlon and disease travel first class.
The germ is progressive. II dropped
the OK team as quickly as the humans
it pursues.
Iowa should not fail to take all rea-
sonable precaution, exercise authority
confine local infections and deny I'M
certidcated persons from the epidemic
district, admission precisely as states
ten to tWenty-four hours closer 10 the
loci OF Infection are doing. On the
infantile paralysis situation, Iowa in
short should not overlook a bet.

THE CHILD LABOR LAW.

The child labor law urged by the
among the few accomp ishments t.
which the administration ana the den.-
ocratic majority may point with p:ide
and thac should be commended. by
members of all political parties. How
ever, i; is not party proposition 5at
che Of puplan welfare sincerely desired
and sought by republicans as well d..
democrats. Nevertheless rhe majority
will claim it as a political asset. The
main thing Is tina: it passed and ih,t:
the child slaughter in cotton mills and
factories must cease.
Outdoor work, like the employment
OF children in tasks on the farms is
not affected by the law. The idea in
the minds Of its makers seems to have
conferred on the combining labor of the
factories and the physical and mental
destruction of childhood which had
been turned into dividends for employ
ers. Those conditions have been made
very plain by host of investigators.
Their IS no possible defense for the
system which has choked the life and
ambition out of childhood, especially
and particularly IN the south.
The child labor law is good job.
Perhaps il will need strengthening
later. If so the prospect is that it win
be done.

States and consequent demand added
TO the demands from abroad must re-

Iowa shortage in the corn crop.
Withal, even tho our principal crop
was short last year, Iowa remained the
center of the efforts of those who had
things to sell and desired to sell where
they could collect on maturity. The
farmers of the state went on buying
automobiles at a faster rate than i'll
any previous year. With Iowa render

the prospect IS for extraordinary farm

to be another of the season when of all
that is good Iowa delivers the best.

those disputes has aroused the pub
lie to sense OF its own right as in
tervenor The outlook Is either for
willing arbitration or compulsory arbi-
tration. for public spirited management
of railways or government ownership
Of transportation lines. The latter way
cut of the dilemma is the path into
other dilsmmas 1t is true but despera-
ton takes the readiest path and the
public has suffered from great strikes
and their consequences to the innocent
until it is getting ready to strike a
blow for itself in its own protection.
Transportation that can be depended
upon is practically as vital to the in
terests and prosperity Of the public as
a standard and reliable currency.

Corn on the cob is one Of the Few
forms of dessert which do not have
to be eaten with knife or particu-
lar kind Of fork. Nothing is more
embarrassing to a man of naturally
timid nature than to pick up the
wrong fork at $50 dinner and jab
carelessly at DEVILS food cake until
arrested by a ferocious look from his
wife. Many man has inserted a
hook -nosed spoon intended for the
pineapple sherbet into his coffee cup,
only to discover his error later and
surreptitiously withdraw the same with
guilty look.
Corn on the cob, however, can be
eaten with just as much success by
the common people as by the Upper
Ten, and one will make as much noise
as the other while doing so. This is
accomplished by Selling an ear of corn
with both hands and fitting it care
fully to the face, running up and down
its surface with the agility of a mouth

California is a fine state to winter
in and grows one of the best climates

has no corn on the cob except the
base imitation which starts west in a
refrigerator car and reaches the table

ment Many d Californian would give

The specialist from Berlin came, but
refused to operate, declaring bluntly
that there was no use, and all during
the long, hot, summer days Robert
Austin sat beside his open window
watching the light die out Of his eyes,
waiting, waiting for the time to make
his sacrifice.
Suydam read Marmion's CHEEKY let.
tiers aloud, wondering the while at the
wistful note that sounded now and
then. He answered them in his own
handwriting. which she had never seen.
One day came the announcement that
she was returning the hrst week In
October. Already September was part.
" gone, SO Austin decided to sail In q
week. At his dictation Suydam wrote
to her, sa-ing that the strain Of over
work had rendered long vacation nee

The apartment was stripped an
bare, the trunks packed on the after
noon before Austin's departure. All
through the dreary nockery Of the
process he had withstood his friends
appeal, bis stern face set, his heavy
heart full Of despairing stubbornness
Now, being alone at last. he CROPPED his
way about the premises to tx them in
his memory, then sunk into his chair
beside the window.
He heard a knock at the door and
summoned the stranger to enter. then
rose with gasp Of dismay. Marmion

yet hesitating effusiveness.

to smile would have told him the truth

"All my arrangements were made. l

"You are offended with me-" said
Miss Moore after pause. "How have

went on painfully:
