ence Of the legislative department of the
government.
Mr.. Olney, who does nothing by
halves, champions the foreign as well as
the domestic policies of Mr.. Wilson.
This is puzzling, for the reason that one
is tempted to ask, What, had he been in
Mr.. Bryan's place, would have been his
attitude and recommendations in the
matter of Mexico in the spring of 19137
We all know what it was in the matter
of Venezuela when he was Secretary of
State. American lives and property
were not at stake then, but American
duty to an American policy-the Mon
roe doctrine-was, and in the assertion
of that he risked war with one of the
most powerful nations in the world. It
was that act which makes Mr.. Olney's
deliverances of moment today.
Can we imagine Mr. Olney notifying
Americans lawfully in Mexico to cheat
it"7 The authenticity of such mes
sage delivered as coming from him
would instantly have been questioned.

New York's Labor Crisis.

| Present indications point 10 the fail
ure of the general strike in New York
as means of compelling the settlement
of the traction strike on terms favor
able to the men. If the orders that
were issued for this sympathy strike
had been obeyed New York would have
| been tied up in a most serious blockade,
with great suffering as a result. But
the initial orders were not obeyed gen
orally, as many thousands Of the work
ers refuse to regard themselves as con-
cerned to the extent of walking out
when they had no grievances. Since the
first day on which the strike was to be
effective several of the largest trade Or
CARNATIONS have voted to postpone ac-
ton, which, in the circumstances, may be
considered as vote to remain at work
These decisions have been great dis
appointment to the agitators who have
been endeavoring to bring about gen.
eral walkout of union men throughout
the city.
The situation is most gratifying. 1t
is proof that without cause a general
strike cannot be promoted on the "sym-
pathy" basis. There was no justification
at any time for such strike. Save
on the traction lines there was no dis
satisfaction on the part of the workers
They were getting good wages, their
hours were satisfactory, and they were
assured of continuous employment.
They were asked to sacrifice themselves
for the sake of possible victory for
the strikers on the traction lines, whose
case has never been clearly shown to
be just. one. In truth, it has begun
to appear to organized labor in New
York that the traction strike was brought
about mainly to compel the recognition
of particular organization, seeking to
establish itself without any real demand
on the part of the workers. Sifted
down, finally, there was no issue on the
right of the men to organize if they
wished to do 80. The traction strike is
now shown to be an effort to compel
them to join particular union.
Doubtless in addition to the lack Of
motive for striking on the part of the
trades in general, Mayor Mitcheps firm
attitude toward possible disorder re-
sulting from a general strike had much
to do with the Encouragement of the
movement. He made it plain at the out
set that he would tolerate no lawless-
ness, and that he would use to the ut
most the civil and military power at
his command TO preserve the peace.

view to the discovery Of means of pre-
vention through the ascertainment Of its
cause and medium of transmission. Con-
situations of scientists, the country's
ablest psychologists and sanitarians,
were held. The government took hand
and placed its public health service at
the disposal of New York. Little was
accomplished toward diminution of the
disease in the affected boroughs, as far
as records go to show. Practically moth
ing has been established as to the cause
and means of infection. Some efforts
were made toward cure through the use
of serum obtained from the blood of
recovered patients, but thus far there
is no assurance of its effectiveness.
AS the case stands, after three months
of most deadly prevalence, this disease,
taking the lives of 2,260 people in
Greater New York, mostly children of
tender years, and Of many others else
where, remains as great mystery as
ever. During the coming winter, it is to
be hoped, advance will be effected
toward the discovery of the medium of
infection and the adoption of means of
prevention, else it is to be apprehended
that the summer of 1917 will be marked
by an epidemic of most disastrous pro-
portions, if, as now believed, this is a
seasonal disease, and if the germ, bac-
terium, bacillus, or whatever may be the
principle of causation, retains its po-
tency throughout the cold weather.

The Infantile Paralysis Epidemic.

Although the New York epidemic of
infantile paralysis has been officially de-
elared at an end cases continue to de-
yelop from day to day, and deaths are
recorded. Yesterday there were twenty
six new cases and ten deaths, a recur-
renee which the authorities declare to
be sporadic, and yet which would in it.
self, apart from comparisons with the
terrible prevalence Of few weeks ago,
be cause for acute alarm in the city.
Thus far there have been $685. cases in
Greater New York, and of these 2,27O
have proved fatal. This makes a death
rate Of over 25.2 per cent, five times as
great as the normal rate heretofore
recognized in this disease. A singular
fact of the case is that during the latter
half of the prevalence of the malady the
rate has steadily increased, rising from
about nineteen to the present point.
Cases of anterior poliomyelitis, or in
fantiie paralysis, began to appear in
New York about The LIST of July, in such
numbers as to arouse alarm. In a very
few days the disease had spread over
wide area in Brooklyn, and was be-
ginning to appear in other boroughs. By
the middle Of July it was recognized as
seriously epidemic and an exodus began
from the city of parents with their chill
dren. 1t was estimated that over 10000
children were taken out Of New York
within week after the disease was off
cially reported as dangerously spread
ing. Quarantines were hurriedly estab-
lished in some places against the refu-
gees from the stricken city, but not in
season to prevent spread of the dis
ease. What saved the country from
devastating infection over wide area
in consequence of this exodus was that
the great majority Of the early cases
| were in a poor quarter of Brooklyn,
from which the people could not flee,
lacking means.
Immediately the thought prevailed that
| the disastrous visitation would afford an
opportunity to study the disease with a

The President and the Senate.

The President greatly desired the re-
. election Of Senator Johnson, but the
Maine voters would not have it So They
turned the senator down by a substan-
tial majority. Presidential desires and
assistance could not save him. He had
supported the President in everything,
and the calculation was that if re-
elected he would continue that course in
the event of the Presidents reelection.
Mr.. Taggart's nomination, according
to report, was not the occasion of any
enthusiasm at the White House. Never
theless, it had been easily accomplished.
The Indiana democrats, with lively ap-
probation of the value of the Taggart
machine, decided that they needed such
) an article this year, and that the surest
way to get the best use of it would be
?. to give the owner and director a per-
sonal stake in the game. And so they
: did.
1t is regarded as a certainty that had
the matter been left to the President
: and his friends Mr.. McCombs would not
= have been nominated for senator in New
; York Now that he has been, the ad-
ninistration proffers support, of course.
The nomination was Tammany's work,
and. whatever the object, the effect has
been to emphasize the talk about the
. organizations independence as respects
tha Presidents wishes.
Mr. Pomerene won his denomination
on his merits, and no. through the Presi-
% dents particular favor. Stories cireu
lated since that Mr. Pomerene might
: have had judgeship, making way for
= Secretary Baker for the senatorial nomi
nation, have not been confirmed, though
widely credited. Secretary Baker stands
in the highest favor with his chief.
And now Mr.. MARITIME has won, not
port, but against the opposition of GER
z tain administration influences. Some
: say that tho opposition was a help. At
any rate, the man tagged as the admin
. istration's candidate was distanced in
the race.

gress be has found the only difficulty of

Achieving Preparedness.

From the Philadelphia Press
After hearing so much and discussing
30 often the weakness Of the United States
Army and Navy 1t is a positive relief to
find something on which to base the belief
that national preparedness Is actually on
the way of achievement. And 1t is diff
cult to refrain from undue enthusiasm
over the fact that an American dread
naught has established a new worlds
record for long distance gunnery, and that
new aerial bomb Of unprecedented ef-
fectiveness has been adopted by the
United States Army. These things are
not in themselves very considerable. but
they are indicative Of the new spirit that
