Relief from One Plague that Job
Never Knew.

An overburdened public, tip-taxed to
the breaking point, must yield gratitude
to Mr.. Copeland Townsend, director of the
Hotel Majestic, who has sent forth the
ukase that henceforth any employe who
accepts tip for caring for patrons hats
coats or wraps will be dismissed. This Is
grievous blow to a young but flourish
ing industry, but it is an example which
might with profit be followed by every
hotel and restaurant proprietor In the
CITY. The slight cost which they might in
cur by caring for their guests outer gar
ments without charge would be more than
offset by the goodwill of the people whose
trade they desire.
The hatboy nuisance is scarcely more
than decade old, but it is virulent enough
to make up for its youth. Some few eat
ing places have stood out against it, TO
their credit be it said, but they are few,
indeed. In most OF them the customer
must pay for his food, must tip the waiter
and then fee the young brigand who, if
the hat was not left with him at the en-
trance, has pursued the unfortunate
owner even into the dining room to snatch
it from him. The profits from this brand
of enterprise do not 90 to the persons who
carry it out, but to contractors who lease
from the restaurant or hotel proprietors
the right thus to fleece their guests. And
the takings are so valuable that one of
these contractors is now suing restau-
rant man for abrogation Of his vested
rights because the lease or contract was
cancelled.
New York has never accepted this i'm
position willingly, any more than it &C
cepted willingly the ten-cent charge for
bread and butter, now an unhappy mem
DRY in all save few establishments. T.
is to be hoped that Mr.. Townsend's action
may be the beginning Of its end.

Gompers in Maine.

From The Portland Prcss)
Mr.. Gompers may be an able and compe.
tent labor leader and by what he has accom-
plshed may deserve the position he hold,
at the head of the Federation OF Labor. We
are not prepared to discuss that question,
but when il comes to politics he certainly
lacks in efficiency. Twice Mr.. Gompers has
come to Maine and tried to use his position
to aid the Democratic party and twice he
has ANONYMOUSLY failed. 1t was ten years
ago, we believe, that he became sggrieved
against Charles f. Littlefeld, Congressman
from the Second District, and came to this
state and tried to persuade labor organized
and otherwise, to elect mis- Democratic OPP
ponent.
The result was complete triumph for the
Republican candidate and a reputation of
the so-called labor leader and the man he
was working for.
Until this fall Mr. Gompers kept away
from Maine, evidently having unpleasant
memories of his experiences in this state
when he undertook to tell the voters Of the
Second District whom they should choose for
a Congressman. But this year, moved by
the dire straits which his friend Wilson was
in and perhaps grateful TO him for driving
his wage law through Congress, he came to
Maine and at two three meetings urged
the voters to stand by the President and
the Democratic state candidates.
He had a big meeting in City Hall, which
was a Democratic rally, although masked as
labor gathering, and in unmeasured terms
denounced the Republican party and Repub-
lican candidates. What did he accomplish?
OF course there is no way of making posi-
tive answer to this question, but it is sig
nifcant that Cumberland County gave one
Of the largest Republican majorities in
years, over LOO. which was far beyond what
the most optimistic dreamed of.
We wouldn't say that Mr. Gomperss APP
pearance here cost the Democrats any votes,
although this is by no means certain, but it
is certain that it didn't gain them any. As
representative of the great Federation of
Labor Mr.. Gompers is entitled to a hearing
and consideration when he comes to Portland
but as partisan politician he is a failure
and would better keep away.

NationaIism the Issue.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The editorial "Nationalism the Real
Issue" should never have appeared IN The
Tribune unless handled by some one more
familiar with the science of government and
its relationship to the whole people. Nation
alism is but the cry of the politician. Inter
nationalism is the problem confronting the
statesman. An aggressive nationslism leads
10 war among those nations following that
policy. Internationalism leads to coopera-
ton and coordination of the national units
in peace and progress.
The pages of history covered with the
record of those nations which have passed
into obscurity and oblivion pursuing an ag-
gressive national policy. The creation Of a
healthy national spirit based upon justice
and reason is a desirable asset for any and
all nations, but this only be acquired by
appealing to the national sense of justice;
aggressive nationalsm based upon racial and
territorial limitations destroys the vital prln-
ciple of self-government so dear to us all.
Does The Tribune desire to promote strife
may The Tribune still hold to the principle
Of government for the people, by the people
and of the whole people. j. NJ. HOLMES.
Brooklyn, Sept. IS, 1915.
[Internationalsm is all we'll enough, but
no nation is likely to have much influenc,
in settling international problems which
has not first developed pronounced and
powerful nationalism at home. China is
the only nation which has ever survived in
spite of its failure to pursue an aggressive
national policy.-ED.l

For Value Received.

The Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen
has sent a bulletin to all its members urg-
ing the reelection of President Wilson and
the defeat of "our enemies" Announce
ment is made that the others of the big
Four" will likewise endeavor to deliver
labor union votes to the President and his
Democratic colleagues in Congress- in
gratitude for the enactment of the So
called eight-hour law.
What a sickening commentary this is on
the course taken by the Chief Executive
of the United States and the honorable
members of the two branches of the ma
tional legislature! They delivered the
goods. Now they are TO be paid. The
President, who believes in arbitration u
but advised the brotherhoods not to arbi
trate their demand for raise in pay be-
cause society" stood with them, is TO re-
ceive votes in return for his surrender of
that "just and enlightened principle" The
Democratic Senator'S and Representatives
who swallowed a bill about which they
knew nothing, and which went contrary to
the convictions of many of them, who
voted as they glanced at the union lobby
lists holding stop-watch on them in the
gallery, they, too, are to be paid in votes
And "our enemies" who dare to expose the
wrong of that vicious surrender and to
question the course which extracts money
from the pockets Of the general public for
the benefit of 100000 men already wei.
paid-they are to be defeated by these
labor union votes, if possible.
What must the country think of this
whole sordid affair now, when the last
phase Of the transaction is thus crudelv
revealed?

Poliomyelitis in Sweden.

A Stockholm correspondent Of The As
ISOLATED Press has been trying to collect
some useful information about acute an
terror poliomyelitis from the bacteriolo-
gists and clinicians of Sweden where the
disease is endemic. II cannot be said
that he has CLEANED much Of value to the
general public; indeed, as far as control
Of the disease is concerned, the most
learned and experienced of investigators
are still in the dark.
There are some passages, however, that
are worth noting. In the first place, as 10
the risks Of contagion. II may be gath
cred from a dispatch lately published here
that the French Academy of Medicine has
concluded that the disease was not COM
municable, but this misapprehension is
probably due to an error in the cabled alb
stract of the report. This report, pre-.
pared by the learned DR.. Arnold Meter,
evidently deals with current conditions in
France, and the obvious meaning is that
there is no reason to fear that the disease
will become epidemic there, that the cases
reported so far are sporadic, and that Of
late there have been fewer Of them. In
the dispatch DR.. Meter is made to say
that the disease will not take on con-
tagious character" which is plainly alb
surd.
In Sweden they have always found it
difficult 10 prevent the spread of poliomye-
litis. Nevertheless, they attempt to secure
the isolation Of affected families and dis
tricts One Of the chief difficulties lies in
detecting healthy carriers. Carriers, IT
appears, are almost invariably found in
families where cases have occurred and
some patients continue to harbor the in
lection for long time after recovery. In
