Discipline Essential.

Those who escape discipline are to
be pitied, but we may be sure the es-
cape will rot be for long. The order
of the wotil provides for this without
our interference. In most cases we
had much better be concerned in hold
ing our hands off or in providing al
leviations for the hours between these
needful buffetings by the heavy hand
Of fate. The discipline of others, in
other words, ordinarily is none of our
business. We may safely and wisely
leave it to parents, school masters, po-
lice, and to the hard knocks of life.

YARDS SEEN AS
STRIKE FACTORS
Many Mills Can Operate
With Free Trackage,
Says Holland.

II the yards are kept clear. then
It is possible to- operate the steel
and iron plants although the force
may be reduced. On the other
hand, II, the yards become clogged.
then it Is necessary to close down
the plants, for the skilled artisans
cannot work unless they have the
material at hand. Therefore It has
been the policy to keep the yards
open day by day in order to pre-
vent congestion OF material in
them. 1t is in these yards that un-
skilled labor is for the most part
employed.
For this reason those who are
watching the progress of the steel
strike say 1t is impossible to report
that although a plant has been shut
down that it Is due to the walking
out under union orders Of all the
employees.
II Is evident that the executives
in the steei' industry now regard
the Homestead plant and the Du-
ouesne plant as the strategical key
to the situation. II these plants
can be operated. even to partial ca
pacity, then the mastery of the situ-
alton will. according to the belief
Of these executives. be in a little
while. well in hand.
The presumption is strong that
the strike will be maintained for
some weeks. It is the belief COM
monty held that the irresistible
force Of public opinion will at last
cause this disturbance to be
brought to an end.
