 Carlyle Blackwell. the Equitable Mo- tion Picture Corporations nterna- tiOnally popular star, will be seen on the screen of the Lamara on Friday, in a remarkable perturbation of sam uel Hopkins Adams vital American novel, The Clarion" The names of the star and author are alone suffi- cient to attract the attention of all motion picture patrons, to this pro- duction.
 The story of "The Clarion has a two-fold value. Firstly, it is a story that will grip and hold it's audience from the first to the last foot of the five reels in which it is pictured. Secondly. it is a story that exposes one of the most devlish practices of the day, the manufacture of fake pat ent medicines.

The Quezon Boom.

Senor Quezon, commissioner in the
House from the Philippines, entertained
number Of friends at dinner last
night, and those of his guests who spoke
said some very pleasant things about
him and the cause he represents-early
independence under a native govern
ment for the islands. He will not re-
turn to Washington, but will remain at
home and give personal attention to
larger matters he has in hand.
This Filipino orator and agitator is,
according to report, candidate for
president Of the republic which he and
his friends hope to see established soon
in the archipelago. In fact, he returns
with boom made in America. Leader
Kitchin Of the House has put him in
nomination. Whether this will ego"
with our little brown brothers when the
time comes is question. They may
demand boom made at home, and dis
cipline Senior Quezon for not patronizing
homo industry.
Scuttle is now an issue in the ma
tional campaign. The democrats are
for, tho republicans against, it. The

sition remains in favor, and if Mr.. Will
son is reelected and supported by an
other democratic Congress we may see
it renewed within two years.
On the other hand. if Mr.. Hughes is
elected and supported by a republican
Congress, scuttle will be disposed of for
some years to come. He thinks, and is
saying in his speeches, that our obliga-
tons in the Philippines are still run
ming, and that we are bound in duty to
the Filipinos, to ourselves, and to the
world at large to remain and direct af
fairs until we can withdraw with safety
for all concerned.
Representative Cooper of Wisconsin,
one of Senior Quezon's guests last night,
is quoted as saying:

tyranny, but to secure liberty and all
the benefits of modern civilization"

The Democratic Appeal.

Champ Clark is reported as suggest
ing that democratic spellbinders put the
emphasis on the income tax, the reserve
act and rural credits The Speaker is
an experienced politician, and a good
judge of party issues. He knows the
record upon which the democracy is now
appealing for Endorsement.
The income tax is undoubtedly here
to stay. AS at present levied, however,
and as now in process of change, it is
open to just criticism. Comparatively
so few are assessed, and so huddled are
they in the east, the legislation bears
both a class and a sectional aspect. It
should not be left in that state
And to what extent is it proposed to
use that tax to break down or seriously
impair the policy of protections Such
large sums can be raised from incomes
that sums through the customhouses
can be made, and kept, very low. To
put the income tax opposition to
way that some political gossip is de-
scribing-wiH be to raise up enemies
where there should be friends for the
tax
The reserve act is, as yet, an expert
ment, built upon a republican founda-
ton. Some changes will be made by
the next Congress, no matter which
party controls And it is something of
an exaggeration to say that, at time
when because of the war this country
is overlooking with money, the reserve
act has kept US out of panic.
Arrangements are just on foot to put
the rural credits law into operation. We
shall know very little about it before
election day. 1t may turn out song,
it may turn out sermon. Many
financiers and some farmers are doubt
full about the law as drafted.
The democratic appeal is to the farm
ers and the wage earners. Rural
credits in the one case, and the income
tax SO adjusted as to strike heavily the
very rich, are the bases. There is small,
if any, hope of carrying capitalistic
centers. Even New York, with Tam
many to draw upon, is in doubt. Bust
ness, big and little, is shy. The Under
wood law, which gave the first jolt, is
not the only cause of complaint.
Mr. Clark, it will be observed, passes
over foreign affairs. Not word about
Mexico. But foreign affairs cannot be
kept out of the campaign. The republi-
cans are loaded on that line; and Mr.
Roosevelt in particular, who is on the
eve of taking the stump and may swing
around a wide circle, will make the sub
ject specially.

The Strike Order.

When appealed to by the President
August "A and circulated among the
brotherhood chairmen while the nego-
tiations at the White House were in
progress for a settlement of the rail
road controversy, the brotherhood chiefs
replied that it was impossible to do so,
that the order had gone beyond recall.
This, of course, is not correct. The
strike order is not irrevocable. 1t is
no more beyond recall than any order
for future action. 1t could be can
celed or suspended within twelve hours
by telegraph if the brotherhood chiefs
wished to bring the case back to the
stage of genuine consultation in sin
cere desire to secure an adjustment. If
the strike order is irrevocable then the
strike is inevitable, and that does not
at present appear to be the contention of
the brotherhood leaders. If strike
cannot be averted then the present eff
forts of the President to secure legis-
lation which will effect settlement
and other safeguards against industrial
warfare are futile. Nobody, however
believes this to be the case. 1t would
be more in keeping with the spirit of
fair play in which the President has I'M
dertaken to obtain settlement if the
brotherhoods would now rescind the
strike order or at all events suspend the
positive date and hour set for the strike.
To allow this order to stand in the face
of the continued efforts to effect set

No Licenses for Ex-Virginians.

1t was stated the other day on be-
half of the excise board that the grant
of transfer Of liquor license from
local holder to himself and partner,
the latter being a newcomer from Vir-
ginia, would not be regarded as prec-
edent under which Virginia dealers,
driven from that state in November by
the new "dry" law, could find shelter
here. This is a gratifying assurance.
The excise board has granted 272
licenses, % under the limit Of 800 al
lowed by law, 2 Of which have lapsed.
Thus there are technicaily 80 vacancies,

cedure would be contrary to the spirit
of the law. In granting only 272 licenses
the board has in effect ruled that that
number is sufficient for Washington, and
the fact that Virginia has meanwhile
voted to prohibit the vending Of liquor
within its boundaries does not justify
any increase in that number. Wash
ington should not be used as basis of
operations in traffic in Virginia which
is prohibited by the laws of that state,
certainly not through the agency of

Congress and the Strike Menace.

President Wilson has referred to
Congress the question of the best means
to avert the threatened railroad strike,
which, if. called, would paralyze the
transportation of the country, choke its
industries and menace the health and
even the lives of people. He has asked
for legislation to meet not only the
immediate emergency, but the general
matter of disputes between capital and
labor. If enacted, this law will be, as
the President said in his speech yester-
day, a guarantee of industrial peace in
the future.
The question at this hour is whether
in the short time remaining for the
strike which has already been called
for next Monday morning law of this
kind can be enacted Presumably Con-
gress will devote itself exclusively to the
business of preventing the strike if pos
sible by legislation. There is no more
urgent question before it. No impera-
tive reason exists for adjournment Con-
gress may stay here to work on this
problem with far greater profit to the
individual members from political
point of view than by closing the ses-
sion.
The President presents six proposals:
a. Enlargement of the interstate COM
merce commission membership and
powers to enable it to deal with this
and similar questions; (2) an eight
hour day as the legal basis of work
and wages in the employment of rail
way employees; (3) an observation COM
mission to report to Congress on the
workings of the six-hour railway day;
~ explicit authorization of considera-
tion of increased expenses under the
eight-hour day in an adjustment of
rates; 90 a new arbitration act insur-
ing full inquiry into the merits of all
disputes before a strike or lockout may
be attempted lawfully; (s) authorize
ton for the President, in case of
military necessity, to take over the
railroads and to draft into the military
service all necessary train crews and
officials
Ordinarily such comprehensive plan
would require long debate for adoption.
In this emergency, however, debate is
dangerous. Time is most precious Pro-
vision has been made already for hear
ing of representatives of the two sides
by Senate committee, and by Friday
at the latest action should be had upon
this measure if in the judgment of the
majority Of Congress it is the best means
to the end of preventing the impending
national disaster.
It is great misfortune that the rail-
way operatives, through their brother
hood organizations, have acted precipi-
lately in actually calling a strike for
next Monday morning in advance of the
actual consultations at the White
House. This fact cannot fail to preju-
dice their case in public opinion when
the question of responsibility is finally
weighed. The important consideration
at this hour, however, is not who is to
blame for the immediate menace to the
industrial peace and the physical well
fare of the country, but how the catas-
troDhe that is threatened may be avert
cd. This is NO time for determinations.
Tho patriotic duty of the hour resting
upon Congress is to frame and speedily
pass such a measure as is best calculated
to avert this calamity.
