President Wilson has grappled with the perpexing problem of the
threatened railroad strike with the courage that has been characteristic
of his administration. Whatever estimate the historian may make of
the results of this administration, it must be admitted that Nj. Wilson
has not shrked his duty or sidetcpped responsibility.
In this industrial and ransportational criis the president has been
fearless to act, regardless of criticism that might be hurled at him. He
has approached the counsels with representatives Oft the railroads and of
the four great brotherhoods of railway workers with consummate i'm
partially. He has been blind to the issues involved. He has not passed
judgment upon the merits OF the controversty. But, representing the
whole people, he has moved, with urgent insStence, for prevention of the
impending paralyzng Of the common carrier service OF the nation. He
has diregarded precedent; he has forgotten tradition; he has remembered
only that he is the servant of the whole people and that he is bound,
in conscience, to exhaust every resource OF his great office to ert, if
possible, conditions that would be disastrous to all the people. In this,
however, he is not ohiciously medding with the affairs of railroad unions
Or railroad companies. Nor is be taking sdes-Grass Valley, Cal,

MORE QUESTIONS FOR MR. HUGHES

A Seattle, Wash, subscriber OF the New York World asks the fol-
lowing questions of Judge Hughes in the query column OF that paper:
/ Would you or would you not have protested III the case of the
German invasion of Belgium?
2 Would you o II would you no have delivered an ulimatum imme-
diately upon the sinking OF the IuGtNnia?
g. Do you or do you not think the administration a unneutrai
in refusing to place an embargo upon m sto Europe?
A. Do you believe in the panke Of the Progressive platform of 1912
without regard to whether or not they have been enacted into law by
the Wilson administration?
5 Do you or do you not approve OF that portion OF the Clayton act
which declares labor not to be a commodity and labor un,ons to be ex,
enpt from prosecution under the Sherman act?
A clear and definite answer to these questions would in the minds of
the Western Progressves go much further than general statements to
determine the attitude OF Nj. Hughes O n Americansm "undlutcd" and
Progressvism.

THE OLD GUARD RUBBING 1T IN

Candidate Hughes visit to California has increased rather than
diminished the row that eNss between the Old Guard Republicans and
the Progressives. Hughes asked in San Francisco the day he ar
rived there to try and straighten out the difficulties OF the two factions
but he replied that he represented the National Republican party and could
not mix up with local Disturbances; probably it was below his judicial
dignity
Anyway, Chester Roweu, who leads the Progresives, is in a huff; and
while ne says he will support Hughes he intimaes Wilson will carry the
state. Governor Johnson also received a snub either from Hughes him.
self when he wa in Los Angeles or from the contingent that surrounded
the Republican candidate and shut ont all OF those who wore the Pro-
gressve brand. They held high lIvce with Hughes in the Hotel Alex
andria ard Johnson at in his room upstairs waiting to be called upon
and take part in the hauues. But al invitation to participate never
came and Johnson is naturally hot.
AS the Progressiyes are. the ruling element in California and as their
leaders have received rather snobbsh treatment rom the few who con-
stitute the leaders of the Old Guard it is more than likely they will re-
sent such arrogant tactics. They are mad clean through, and should the
election take place tomorrow Woodrow Wilson would receive Is per
cent OF their votes. And it isl more than likely he will n election day.

HAS HUGHES PROVED AN OWL?

As a state executive Mr.. Hughes did not achieve any very particular
or unusual distinction. He was about Is commonplace. in most matters,
as n other state executive of the forty-odd OF his contemporaries A.
a justice of the Supreme court he va not more conspicuous for ability
than any of his associates, no other n of whom has been ever men,
toned as a possible presidential candidate. Mr.. Hughes chief political
asset va availability, and that was the result OF negative rather than
positive qualities. His party had been divided into factions, and because
Mr.. Hughes had not been allied with either ne of them and had kept
his W counsel regarding their differences it a assumed that he might
be able to unite these factions. Efforts to induce the justice, who had
a n Y o n the presidential nomination. to declare himself n way or n
other we're navaiing. A declaration of his views and sympathes would
have hurt him as much with side as it would have helped him with
the other, and so the justice with presidential aspirations remained the
sphynx till the nomination came his way. Perhaps it would have been
better for MIN and for his party if he had remained the sphynx tt the
last.
The owl is the symbol of wisdom. The owl eve speaks; merely
boots. Perhaps if the owl we're endowed with the power of ariculate

Many persons have won a reputation for wisdom, and have lost it later
by al oral indiscretion. The story is told Of a diner in a public cafe who
attracted the attention of guests who sat opposite him by his massive
forehead and dgnhed demeanor He sat silent through the greater part
of the meal When he opened his lips to speak there ws expectant

II BIDES HIS TIME

Who bides his time, and day by day
Faces defeat full patiently,
And lifts a mirthful roundelay
However poor his fortunes be-
He will not fail in any qualm
OF poverty-the paltry dime
1t will grow golden i'll his palm,
Who bides his time.
Who bides his time-he tastes the sweet
OF honey in the safest tear,
And though he fares with slowest feet
Joy runs to meet him, drawing near;
The birds are heralds of his cause
And like a never-cnding rhyme,
The roadsides bloom i'll his applause,
Who bides his time.
