ADVICE TO ARBITRATE GETS NO
APPLAUSE FROM r. r. MEN

"Arbitrate with the railroads" was
the keynote of a speech before Chi
cago railroad employees by Henry D.
Estabrook, New York atty in Or
chestra hall last night. The meeting
was held under the auspices of the
Railway Mems Advance Republican
club.
However, no mention was made of
the rotten deal the employees got at
an arbitration meeting held last year.
The speech bristled with platitudes.
1t asked the men if the railroads could
afford to meet their demands. 1t said
their cause was lost now if they de-
cided to strike without arbitration.
1t asked if the railroad finances are on
the mend and then warned the men
to watch out or the roads would use
the strike to encompass their great
desire government ownership of
their property at its total capitalize
ton.

An Impossible Proposal.

A flood OF adverse comment from abroad fore
shadows the utter failure that was expected on this
side OF the efforts OF the Washington government
to induce the belligcrcnt nations to agree to GER
tain rules OF submarine warfare designed to safe
guard human life One objection that appears to
be insurmountablc alone comes from Paris, where
the Journal des Debats says:
"Thc American memorandum recognizes i'm
phcitly, II not explicitly. the right OF submarines
to sink lnOtcnSlNc merchantmen. That is revolu-
ton IN international law ard premium accorded
to barbarlSm. Germany replaced the right Of cap
turc by the right of destruction. We cannot sane
ton this right One would simply regulate assas-
SInatlon IN celebrating rules to pretended safe
chantmcn."
1t is not surprising that a proposal that the
allies shall agree to certain terms in consideration
OF which Germany is to abandon murder on the
high seas, should be denounced. But there is an
other and even more formidable obstacle to any
such agreement German promises were worth
negotiations over the Lustania. Not pledge was
kept until the British navy routed the submarines
and took away from Germany the weapons for
numbering Americans. So, supposing the allies
agreed that their merchantmen should offer no re-
S1stance in any form to the submarines should
not attempt flight. should abandon every measure
OF protection, and Germany should agree in re-
turn to do neutrality-suspicious. as such an
agreeemnt sounds-what guarantee would the
allies have that Germany would abandon the busi-
ness Of killing? They would have none, and thew
know it; and they will not listen to the United
States proposal

The War and the Tariff.

The Republican Publicity Association, presided
over by Hon. Jonathan Bourne, has collected a
lot of foreign statistics from the publi-
cations of Secretary Redheld and fashioned them
into bomb which it hurs into the ranks of the
thick and thin supporters Of the Underwood tariff
act who steadfsstly blame the war for its failure
as revenue producer. The figures used by Mr.,
Bourne are for the calendar years, beginning with
1912, the last full year under Republican tariff,
and ending with 1915, which cursed with war
and Democratic tariff throughout They make a
striking showing
In 1912 imports valued at SI,SIS,ooo 900,
the duty collected S32634o,ooo, the average rate
being I8 per cent. In 1915 imports valued
at $1,000 the duty collected SIo8,6o6o 900.
the average rate being ILL per cent Thus the
value OF the 1915 imports only $4,000, 900 be-
low that of the 1912 imports, but the duty coll
lected was less by SI27.734ooo In percentage the
1915 imports were only little than I-2 per
cent below those Of 1912, but the revenue yielded
was over 50 per cent less.
This compilation might be expected to disabuse
an unprejudiccd mind of any notion, implanted
therein by low tariff proestations, that the war is
responsible for the failure OF the Underwood tariff

even calculated to shake the confidence of some
OF the earnest supporters of the measure, but in
face OF it all scarcely of them is dsmayed.
Can they find the answer? They can, and it is
easy. Was it the opportunities offered by the free
list and the lowered schedules that brought to our
ports in 1915 articles only triflc below those of
1912 in value but yielding 80 per cent, or SI27,-
$4,000, less in customs revenues? Oh, mol 1t was
yet and again the By some mysterious in
fuence the war prevented the exports of those
particular articles which the duty was kept up
and sent to our ports flood OF those very things
that the trainers Of the Underwood law selected a
year before the for the free list for lowered
duties. What war it is! We arc almost tempted
to believe that it was started for the single pur-
pose OF deceiving the whole world into the belief
that absolutely perfect low tariff law is failure

How German Infantry Attacks.

The German attack goes up in three parallel
and widely separated lines. These lines are de-
ployed like skirmshcrs, about five yards between

line faster than the second. The effect Of this is
to bring these men, when almost upon the enemy

in three rushing lines. the units of which were
widely separated and by their trick OF giving each
line different speed of advance they were all
brought together for that terrific moment just
before the bayonets get in their work, when it is
most disconcertng for the enemy to face mass
of men. These charging lines arc fed by reserves
