IMPENDING RAILROAD STRIKE
AND THE PUBLIC.

1t is a grave mistake to assume
that the controversy that has been GO
ing on for many months between the
railroad companies and their employees
is one that involves only the princi-
pals. Having failed to arrive at an
agreement on the questions Of hours
of labor and compensation, and the
employees having refused to submit
the issues to arbitration. and the en-
ployes also having voted overwhelm-
ingly in favor of a strike, the country
is now confronted with fight for SUI
premacy between the railroads and
employees which compared with for
mer strikes takes rank with the Euro
pean war as compared with former

The adherence of ex-senator Bever-
idge to the Hughes cause is an occa-
sion of much alarm to democrats in
Indiana, who had counted upon Beyer-
idge to furnish the heavy artillery for
bull moose campaign in Hoosierdom.
With Beyeridge on the stump for the
republican ticket, as he says he will
be, it means that his personal follow
ing which two progressive campaigns
have shown to be surprisingly large,
will be in the republican column and
that Indiana will be safely republican
also.

In letter to an active progressive
in Michigan, Colonel Roosevelt
says that seven eighths of the party
in New York had deserted before he
ever considered throwing in his lot
once more with the republicans. The
estimate is none too high. For many
states it is entirely too low. The fact
is that fully 80 per cent of the pro-
gressives of 1912 were republicans
prior to that time and that they are
republicans again now. None of the
few Converts whom democratic
headquarters is Dragging about has
yet been discovered to have had a
republican record. They are all ex-
democrats.

WHY THEY WANT THE REPUB-
LIcANs RESTORED TO POWER.

A recent issue of the Commoner
contained this paragraph:
the favor seeking, privilege enjoying
classes and he will explain to you the
Importance of returning the republic
can party to power"
BY favor seeking, privilege enjoy
ing classes" 1t is assumed thGt Mr..
Bryan refers to the representatives of
the great Industrial enterprises who
desire to see a return of the policy Of
protection which will follow restora-
ton of the republican party to power.
To give the matter a local applica-
ton, Mr.. Bryan means that men who
are operating the great lead and zinc
mines of the Occur d'Alene district,
and who demand that their industry
be protected from direct competition
with the product of cheap foreign Ia
Dor, are seeking a personal favor from
the government in order that they may
enjoy privileges at the expense of the
public These are the type OF men to
whom Mr.. Bryan derisively refers as
being the sole benefciaries of the pol
icy of tariff protection. What about
the thousands of wage earners who
will also profit by the restoration of
protection in the way of steady en-
ployment and higher wages? If the
employers are favor seeking, privi-
lege enjoying class, then the en-
ployes must be placed In the same
class, for they share in the benefits
and are equally anxious for the re-
publican party to be returned to pow
er. But there are so many counts
against the Wilson administration
and the democratic congress in addi-
ton to the tariff that Mr.. Bryan will
find in November that the classes to
which he scornfully refers to constitute
a very great majority of the people.

TRAINING IN PUBLIC
SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES.

Military preparedness has taken a
firm hold upon the people of the Unit
ed States, and 1t Is not limited to
building battleships, increasing the
standing army, Strengthening our
coast defenses and to the manufact-
ure of vast stores of munitions of war.
These are of course necessary and we
will have them, but there is another
kind of preparedness far more essen
tial and without which these prepare
tons would prove futile under the
stress of war. The men of the nation
must be prepared in spirit and in ply
steal training to meet and successful
ly resist attack from an enemy of the
country. Compulsory military service
as 1t is known in Europe is repugnant
to our form of government, but there
should and must be compulsory mill
tary training of the boys and young
men in order to have an available and
efficient reserve force to meet any
The necessity for sys-
tenn of military training has been
strikingly illustrated during the past
few weeks in moblizing an army to
guard the Mexican border and posi-
bly, invade Mexican territory. Pass
Ing the delay in the movement of the
troops due to our national unprepar-
edness, it is little short of a crime to
send poorly equipped and wholly I'M
trained and undisciplined young men
TO fight the battles of our country. II
hey are to be relied upon to defend
he country, then the country should
see that they are equipped for the
service to the end that they may pro-
eet themselves while safeguarding
he country. So important has this
'eature of the general plan Of ma
ional preparedness come to be regard.
ID that steps are now being taken in

some states to have laws enacted EN-
bodying military training In the high
schools. universities and colleges. OF
course the plan will meet violent OPP
position from the pacifsts and the
Il did not raise my boy TO be soldier
class, but the issue must be met. Aside
from the necessity OF the case, mill
tary training in the schools will be of
inestimable value to every boy. for 1t
will impress upon him those princi-
pies of conduct that will make him a
better and more patriotic citizen. We
commend the subject to the next ses-
sion of the Idaho legislature. The
passage OF law requiring military
training In the schools would place
Idaho in an advanced position on the
question of preparedness and would
elevate the standard OF citizenship as
nothing else could. The same ques-
ton is being discussed In Utah, as in
dictated by the following editorial from
Goodwin's Weekly, of Salt Lake City:
1.-THE matter of military training for
boys In our higher graded schools, In
the high schools, colleges and the uni
versty Of the state should be brought
into the next campaign this year and
into the legislature next winter, for
the first essential of states defense
must always be the men behind the
guns. All else can be promptly sup
piled, but the trained soldier can not
be supplied to order.
There are other reasons This
who have no conception of the sacred
ness of citizenship in this great re-
public, or the duties that attach to 1t.
Again, the one thing needed In Ameri-
can homes more than any other thing
is discipline. The American boy is
naturally precocious and wants to
have his own way and often needs to
be taught the necessity of promptness,
precision and in the right place obed-
fence. Again his sense of humor and
the need of truthfulness are essential
to make real man.
again our schools contain millions
of children of foreign born parents,
many of whom are still obsessed with
a belief that the country they were
glad to get away from because of the
handicaps suffered there is really the
greatest Of countries and they never
impress upon their children the duty
of reverence for free institutions or
for the flag that is their symbol"

wars. II 1t becomes effective. business
and industry will be paralyzed from
ocean to ocean and from the lakes to
the gulf TO an extent without paral-
lei In the history of labor strikes, and
the suffering of innocents will be ap-
palling. The business life Of the ma
ton depends upon the transportation
companies, and while the right of an
employe to quit his employment when
conditions are not to his liking, the
right to enter into a combination to
prevent the operation of the business
of his employer is a different question
altogether and particularly when that
business chances to be one upon
which the public is dependent. Con-
slider the condition here in the Occur
d'Alene district In the event the strike
is called, and the situation here is not
materially different from that which
will prevail In every other community.
Not pound of ore will move, not a
car of supplies will come in, and of
necessity every mine will cloes down.
Thousands Of men dependent upon the
mines Will be thrown out of employ
ment, and If the strike is prolonged
the shortage of food supplies will be
a serious one. While not a party to
the controversy, evidently the public
will be the greatest sufferer. Clearly
the public has rights that should be
respected, but as they are not, some
plan should be devised that will force
respect for them.
