the Spanish forces closed in on the
stronghold of the rebel chief, suf-
fering but insignificant losses In
their advance. On the other hand,
Raisuli succeeded in working up
native sentiment, and in several
instances risings occurred In the
rear of the Spanish columns.
The Spanish public is watching
the campaign with interest, but
with no undivided approval. In
radical circles, and especially
among the Catalan Republicans,
there is violent opposition to what
is termed a foreign adventure for
the purposes of which Spain can
spare neither men nor money. A
manifesto issued by the Catalan
Republicans at Barcelona demands
that Spain shall cede her interest
in Morocco to France, In exchange
for certain economic advantages.

Spain's Little War

The visit of King Alfonso to the
Entente capitals draws attention
to the fact that in these days, when
80 many European countries have
little war or two on their hands,
Spain is no exception to the gen
eral condition. In reality, the cam
paign Spain is conducting in NJ
rocco against the well-organized
guerilla bands of the 'brigand chief
Raisuli is a serious affair, and is
considered such by most Spaniards.
The successive Spanish cabinets
CT late years found the problem of
Morocco a thorny one, although, in
q way, it provided them with well
come object toward which to defect
popular attention from troublesome
domestic questions. Recently the
government had to hear much
about the success of General
Lyautey in maintaining peace and
order IN the French zone of inter
est in spite Of the European war
claiming the undivided effort of the
french government. In contrast, it
IS pointed out, the Spanish commits
sionaires in their zone were unable
TO keep Raisuli in bounds and
suffered conditions to drift from
bad to worse.
The government therefore. de-
cided to end the pickering with the
bandit chieftain once for all An
expedition was planned and exc
cuted, placing at the disposal of
General Berengucr, in command of
tne operations, a large number Of
troops and quantities Of supplies
end flying craft--the latter's eff
cacy in colonial warfare having
been proved by English experience
IN Africa and India. On September
20 last King Alfonso had confer
ence with General Lyautey at Bor-
deaux, and two days later the
operations began. From three

Labor's s Fur Coats

(From the Nashville Tennessean)
Reports from London state that the
hard hearted "uncles" Of the three
ball profession have caused consterna-
ton in the ranks of former women
muntion workers by the announcement
that until further notice no loans will
be made upon fur coats.
During the war these workers made
from $40 to SIS q week-wages which
trpled and quadruped their pre-war
remunerations in other occupations.
Their greatest desire was for fur coats.
Just like the duchess in the Drury Lane
melodrama always wore. Hundreds of
these girls saved their money and in
vested in the regal garments.
Then the war ended, conditions be-
came normal again, and wages dropped
to the old standards; but the cost of
living did not fall in proportion, so
they needs must pawn their dearest
posscssions-the fur coats.
SO many were left with the "uncles''
that these gentry entered a combine
to accept no more as collateral for
loans; hence tho CONSERVATION among
those who believed that the garment
was good for at least "three quid," II
not many times that amount.
Wasn't it James ]. Hill who dryly
remarked that it isn't the high cost
of living which bothers many persons,
but the cost of high living?

Gratitude

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Is the Administration to be
considered the representative of the
country in its treatment of retired off,
GERS of the navy? Mr. Daniels has or
dered that all these be detached from
duty and sent home on November I.
There is q shortage of officers in the
navy; the proportion of officers to men
is already we'll below that required by
law. Why, then, are these men being
cast aside like old gloves? Is it be-
cause most of them returned volun-
tarily to their country's service at
great personal sacrifice, and as a re-
ward for the good work which their
records show that they performed?
They will find it hard to pick up the
threads Of hastily abandoned occupa-
tions. They are retired, in many cases,
for serious physical disability acquired
in line of duty. Many of these men
had struggled to create for themselves
modest little positions that no one
thought it worth while to hold for
them. And meanwhile we know that
their pay has not been increased; they
have not gone on strike in response to
the Fl. c. of L..
Are these faithful, unselhsh servants
being turned back to their meagre re-
tired pay, when they are really needed
by the navy, merely to effect the say
ing of few pennies for the party that
let war contracts on 10 per cent
basis? With all its faults, do not
think the Republican party has stood
in the past for such base ingratitude.

Your Judges

Every citizen has profound per-
sonal interest in seeing that the
judges Of his community shall be
independent and Embossed. The issue
is larger than personalities, i'm
portant as these factors are. Justice
Newburger is an able and expert
enced Judge, with a sound record of
impartial service. Murphy's candi-
date is young and utterly without
judicial service. He is opposed, on
the merits, by the Bar Association
and every competent authority.
But the question of independence
goes far deeper than that. What
our courts decide controls not only
possible financial loss or gain in the
event of litigation, but the most ele-
mental and sacred of our political
and civil rights. Without cour-
ageous and Embossed judiciary pop
ular government is a hoax and a
snare. The citizens of New York
learned this truth through sad ex-
perience. They have spoken out be-
fore when a boss attempted to name
his man for the bench. They should
speak out in no uncertain voice on
the coming Election Day.
1t is an off year Mr. Murphy
counted largely on this fact. Do
not let this apathy save him. Do
not let any confusion Of the issue
save him. A vote for Justice New
burger is a vote for an Embossed
judiciary. A vote for Mr.. Inter
myer is, necessarily, a vote for the
principle of a bossed judiciary.

Bargaining-Two Kinds

An editorial commentator on the
Washington conference sees fit to
say:
"The representatives of capital
stood out determinedly against col
lective bargaining"
The statement is, of course, mis-
leading, but it is one likely to be
often repeated. But, as Judge Gary
brought out in his address to the
Steel Institute, the fact is that the
employers opposed one method of
collective bargaining and the labor
delegation opposed another form. 1t
is thu5 as true to say the labor dele
cation opposed collective bargaining
as to say the employers did.
The labor representatives asked
for collective bargaining with labor's
agents named by the unions. The
employers asked for collective bar
gaining with labor's agents named
by those they spoke for. The split
was because the employers de-
manded that all their employees
should participate in vital decisions.
The unionists, on the other hand, i'm
piled that only union men should
participate in bargaining and de-
nounced other forms of labor organi-
cations as company unions" The
steel company employees have been
15 per cent union and 85 per cent
non-union. The Gompers resolution
would deny representation to 85 per
cent.
The problem is to reconcile or COM
bine the two propositions. Why
should not all those employed in a
concern decide in the first instance
what they wish, unionist and non
unionist being on an equality? Why
should not the unionlsts, if so in
clined, then name their officers as
their representatives, while the nom
unionists, proportionate to their
numbers, put other men on the bar
gaining delegation?
1t is interesting that in some re-
spects the Gary method Of organiza-
tion approximates to the L. w. w.
method The |. w. w., leaving out of
view the championship of syndical-
ism, stands for the defensible pro-
posal that labor organization shall
be by industries rather than by
trades. Judge Gary is friendly to
the same plan.
But for a whole group of en-
ployees to bargain singly with an
employer is highly offensive to trade
unions. Organization by industries
would mean that the allegiance Of
workers would run to their fellow
workers in particular industry
rather than to craft organization
national in membership. Mr.. Com
pers believes such a shift Of allegi-
ance would kill trade unionism, and
he fights Judge Gary as he has
fought the !. w. w.
1t is scarcely necessary to point
out that the phase of the |. w. w.
program here referred to is only one
item and that the public has com
monty in mind other items when it
speaks Of the I. w. w.
The employers were not skillful
in getting their case before the pub
lie. They allowed Mr.. Gompers to
create the impression that he was
for collective bargaining while the
employers opposed it. But the
truth will gradually get out, and
those who essay the role of public
