fand sanitation has progressed in the warning countries as it never pro. gressed before. They have discover ed many improved mctohds of hand ling fearful wounds, and the treat ment of tetanus is now practically on sound basis. Moreover the very latest is a certain serum cure for cholera which French army sur geon has discovered.
 If the war keeps on long enough medical and surgical progress will be such that after the war is over and peace is restored, men will have to go to war again Tn order to have the old and useless die: we will be- come a world of immortals.

BOMB AND OTHER PLOTS.

As every reader of every news paper knows for the past year, men have been arrested in connection with alleged bomb plots end each particular arrest was made the pre- text for an inflammatory editorial upon hyphenated lawlessness.
 Not only that, but there also came to light a number of confessions and still practically none of these accused have been prosecuted anu practically none convicted
 The public is interested to know if these are just fakes inspired by a business-seeking detective trust, promoting terrorism that it can fatten it's purse thereupon. Everything in- dicates that at least four-fifths of these stories have been promulgateu broadcast with that intention. The American detective agency is sore noble institution.

TIME IS RIPE.

According to a statement made after the Youngstown strike by Basil Manly one of the Industrial Relations Commission, the country is rotten ripe for one of the biggest industrial wars that ever has been seen He is not an optimist and he says that ten per cent increase will not avert series of general strikes which will affect the nation at large. Unless big changes are madc in working conditions; increased wages granted sufficient to meet the in- creased cost of living, Manly fore sees that it is only a matter of time until industrial activity collapses in demand for more pay on the part of labor.
 He instanced conditions where he has looked for troubles and found that they came eventually, and he reviews the general situation to justify his somewhat cheerless prophecy.
 But Manly need not be uneasy. Capital is not now asleep. When Capital has to give into labor it does so with good grace. It heralds it's generosity to the four corners of heaven it makes use of sweeping publicity so thst all will know about it, and even now the signs are that wage increases are becoming gen eral Not large increases but just to keep Labor quiet.
 But this struggle for better con- dtions is an endless one. Soon with higher wages the price of those things that abor makes soar beyond the wage scale paid, and there must at length be reached @ time when beyond this wage increase cannot go. It's then that things will be stirring, and maybe world war will be needed to restore former condi- tions.

MILITIA NEEDS.

It is very important to notice from an article in the Juneau Empire that Governor Strong is interested with Manager Thane Nf the Gastinueau Mining Co., in the establishment O.. militia in Alaska.
 Doubtless Thane has wise recol- lections of the part played by Co., lorado militia in the labor troubles in the coal districts, and he very distinctly approves of that kind or preparedness will make the militia an appendix of the industrial chiefs.
 Why Governor Strong so vehement ly enthuses over the militia propo- sition is not quite clear, unless the contingent influence of the Thames and that ilk has supplemented the powerful void felt in all guberna- torial hearts for the lack of proper military display around the man sions of superior territorial eexcu- tives.

FORD IN NEBRASKA.

Nebraska has followed Michigan in supporting Ford in the primaries. Likely enough Nebraskan republi- cans have neither the expectation nor the wish that Ford will receive the nomination, end that they were mildly courteous to man who has done somewhat for peace. At any rate it shows that there is a strong pacificist tendency deep in the hearts of the American people that may not be quite clear to those who have had their ears pounded with the noisy shoutings of fanatical jingoists.

FINE PARTNERSHIP.

John D. Rockefeller Jr., is the author of an address Labor and Capital-Partners" But the author didn't give an accounting of hIs stewardship showing how as the partner Capital he acquired millions and labor is still in want But his stuff sounds good and mighty famiii- ar-so familiar that it might have been a Civic Federation address by Samuel Gompers.
 The gentleman from 26 Broad way had no trouble at all in show ing that Labor gets the best of the partnership all along, and that it Is Capital that is cruelty wronged, suff- CTS gross injustice and has to endure legal judicial and social disabilities. It's poor capital that should be com miserated for it's hard let, while Labor has been fattening on the best and the fat of the land.
 The community of interest between capital and labor in the partnership which Rockefeller described is sim ply cemented by the fact he did not mention because so trifling that la bor produced all wealth for the other elements to enjoy Most any one would tolerate that sort of a partnership, if they were those that toiled not nor span.

AN INTERESTING ARGUMENT.

It's not often thct higher wages obtains much of an innings in a capitalist paper; but now and then it does. Still we never remember to have read such an interesting article as that which wcll known railroad-influcnced journal puts for ward submitting the advisability of granting the railroad brotherhood S demands.
 It is quite true that the article was apologetic; that it had that un- mistakable tone of making the best of bad job, and indicate without much cover that the railroads were preparing to back down.
 This paper argues that even if the railroads concede the railroad employees higher wages, thereby increasing the consumptive capacity of the workers they will also pro- mote industrial activity and hence greatly increased railroad earnings.
 The demands of the railroad brotherlpods necessitate a large sum says the article; but most o1 that will be spent in turn by the railroad men in nocessaries and lux uries; that will in turn stimulate other industries give increased em- ployment all round, and thus pro- noting a general prosperity make for better conditions for every one.
 The article carefully avoids any too deep an analysis of this fore cast, and where they refuse to tread we cannot afford to step in.
 But the devil can quote scripture for his purpose, as the Bard opined.

WAR AND SCIENTIFIC PROGRESS

This war is not all a bed thing
 It has it's good points. It is giving thousands three squcros day who ncyor had one square a day regular ly before in their lives. It is keeping millions clad who never were titr- ingly garbed before in all their ex' pcrience. It has substituted rouno of excitement in the trenches for round of rest and pastimc not wholly to be dospised by the modern factory or industrial worker who risked life and limb for nothing like the present life he has discover ed The men who are the last to kick about the horrors of war so far have been the men in the trenches. That's significant enough, but it's true. However the war also has an- othec side. Treatment of wounds

People did not live by bread alone, but mighty near it.

but mighty near it.
 Our economic system is now much more complicated. The land is only a secondary part of even food pro duction, for machinery has enable4 very small sections to produce a very great deal and scientific agri- culture has practically assured that the world can always raise more than sufficient for itself
 Today the real control is vested in industrial proprietorship, and financial greatness and it will be ali interesting question to consider whether this war will end in piling the wealth of the world into the hands of few. If it does then the rest will be dominated by that few, just in the same measure that inn perial or regal domination of the land made all the rest of the people in any tribe or nation the subjects of kings or emperors.
 Now there are so many petty financial kings that true rulership may be subjected to dispute, but if things pan out after the war as the money kings expect, the supremacy of a handful will remain foc ever unquestioned.
 It is to hoped so, for then the change wifi be made inevitable if it is not inevitable in any event.
