in America has never before been half
so great as now.
So we see that a new and command
ing issue may make its appearance be-
fore either of the two national con-
ventions meets, and force both when
they meet to take cognizance of it of
some sort. And, of course, in either
case, the candidate must fit the plat
form upon which he stands, and nota-
bly, the paramount plank of it.
The one certain thing today is a
highly gratifying thing. Which is
that the two old parties are in keller,
and both under competent, expert
enced, and aggressive leadership. The
country knows both 1t has for many
years tried one and then the other. 1t
recognizes an old acquaintance in
either. In its national affairs it has
never travelled outside of that limited
choice.
Let US hope that it may not travel
outside of it next year. This would
be a most perilous time for the coun-
try to go experimenting with, and
under, a new organization. However
profuse with promises the new or
ganization might be, or however at
tractive on personal grounds its can
didate, the element of the untried, the
uncertain, would enter in, and make
confusion worse COMPOUNDED.

The Strike.

There is no question more interest
ing or important at present than the
strike question. The people every
where are discussing it, while the Sen
ate has it in hand as a feature of a
railroad measure it is now debating.
Appropriately enough, therefore, the
industrial conference, now in session,
from which the public is expecting
much, takes it under consideration.
That something should be set up,
fair to all sides, to take the place of
the strike is a very earnest and per
suasive proposition. As has been re-
peatedly demonstrated, the strike
works injury to both capital and labor,
and of late years also to the public.
1t is out of date, if it ever properly
was in date. 1t is no fit instrument
for use in such country as this,
where we are all citizens, and as such
charged with the public welfare. Any
thing that tends to the public injury,
to the dislocation of public utilities, is
an evil not to be borne.
We think of strikes too much in
terms of dollars and cents. True, they
have a very direct bearing on the
pocket; and the pocket nerve is ex-
tremely sensitive. Capital wants divi-
dends, and labor must have wages.
But there is another, and even
higher, aspect of the matter, and that
is the effect of strikes on the con-
duct and natures of strikers. Idle
men with a grievance become morose
and turn easily to turbulence. Many
strikers are young men, unframed,
inexperienced, and unsettled. 1t is
for this reason that, as has been said
by somebody, to call strike is to call
riot. Blood flows, and property is
destroyed. Participants under such
pressure are brutaized. They lose
all sense of responsibility to them
serves anu u OtucIS. AACy oAO Aoe
bad men at heart, but quite the con-
trary. They are simply hot-blooded
men placed in confusing circum-
stances.
Returning to work from what may
be called a strike orgy, strikers and
their employers find themselves not
on the same terms as before the strike
took place. Each side loUks on the
other with suspicion, and harbors a
smoldering resentment toward the
other. The result, in time, is, inevi-
tably, another strike.
In the interests of all-in labor's
interests particularly-a substitute for
the strike in the settlement of in
dustrial controversies should be found
and applied.

Criminal Speed.

An automobile tearing at terrific
pace along the Camp Humphreys road
last night struck motor cycle on which
two men were riding and hurled them
to death. The motor car was not
slackened, the driver and his pas
sengers racing away from the scene of
the accident. Their identity is not
known. 1t is possible that they will
never be traced. They are, of course,
perfectly well aware of their part in
this tragedy, and are doubtless con
scious that their unlawful speeding
was the cause of the death of two
men.
1t is motoring like this that brings
into disrepute all automobiles, how
ever careful they are. These anony
collisions and have caused many
deaths. They trust to their own speed
to get away unidentified and unac
cused. Their conduct causes a feeling
that the country roads should after
dark be safeguarded by occasional
barriers to check speeds and to per
NIT identification in case of accident.
There is no conceivable excuse for
such murderous speed on any road. 1t
menaces the lives of all persons who
occupy the highways, motorists, pedes
TRANS and drivers. Unfortunately, in
only small percentage of cases the
smashing machines are themselves
crippled. Usually the scorchers get
away scot free, though occasionally
they come to grief themselves at turns
and dangerous places in the road, with
no harm to others. If this were the
rule uniformly, and they were the
only victims of their insane haste, the
problem would solve itself through
their eventual elimination.

A Coal Settlement in Prospect.

Without detailed explanation, the
proposal, acceptance of which by the
coal miners it is hoped will quickly set
tie the strike, is not to be clearly I'M
derstood. 1t has emanated from the
administration. and report has it that
it is virtually the same as the CARRIED
suggestion of the IA per cent advance
with no additional cost to the con
sumner, with the added feature of
commission to inquire into the whole
question of the coal industry, adjust
wages and correct inequities in the re-
lation of operators and workers.
The presumption is that this plan
for settling the strike may succeed
through suspension of the court pro-
ceedings instituted on the score of the
mine leaders virtual contempt of the
court injunction. In other words. the
move for prosecution of these officials
would seem to have brought them to
a realization that in rejecting the Gar
field offer they set up defiance of the
government in which they have no
public support and which can only end
in their punishment and the demorali-
cation of their organization.
If this is the cause of the present
change of attitude and the effect
should be the end of the strike, vic
tory for law and order will have been
gained. If, however, the terms of set
Element upon which the workers re-
turn to the mines are more advanta-
ceous to them than those of the Gar
field ruling, the effect of the adjust
ment may be more harmful than help
full, in creating the impression that re-
sistance and defiance of the law will
bring concessions.
The country needs coal and must
have it. The shortage of fuel Is now
causing acute distress and the suffer
ing will grow more intense with every
day of suspension of mining. Indus
tries are being closed and thousands
OF men are thrown out of work daily.
Responsibility for these shut-downs
and for the suffering they cause rests
squarely upon the coal miners and
their advisers. Indignation against
them grows steadily day by day as
they are adding to the evils of fuel
shortage by their stubborn conduct.
Acceptance of the present plan for
settling the strike should not come
from them as an act of grace or be
accompanied by any token of yield
ing. Bad as the situation is, acute
as is the need of fuel, the country
cannot afford to make concessions that
keep alive the spirit of resistance and
encourage future attacks upon the ma
tional security and life.

Concessions in the Protocol.

A dispatch from Paris states that
the terms of the protocol putting the
peace treaty into effect have been
modified to meet certain of the Ger
man objections, and it is expected that
the German delegates will now sign.
Details of the compromise are not
forthcoming in such fullness as to per
NIT judgment of the true meaning Of
this change of attitude ON the part of
the allies. 1t appears, however, that
the Scapa Flow affair is to be re-
ferred in some degree to The Hague,
with reference to how far Germany
can 60 in reparation without crippling
her commercially. This concession
may be viewed as an insurance against
German bankruptcy, which is not de-
sired by even the bitterest enemy
of that country. In one other
respect, however, the reported change
is of surprising character. Indica-
ton comes that the protocol is so modi-
fed as to relieve Germany of the men
ace of military action after the treaty
takes effect to insure faithful com
pliance with it's terms. If this is the
case, Germany is to be put squarely
on her good behavior without specii
cally defined coercive pressure.
Whether this will prove a weak reli.
ance can only be answered by events
The protocol thus modified will mean
that Germany becomes free agent
to shape her own course in the cir.
cumstances in which she is left by
the treaty terms. Treaty violations
will, Of course, be possible causes OF

renewed war. Perhaps it is on that
ground that the supreme council now
consents to modify the protocol. In
any case, Germany would have to take
her chances in the matter of allied
punitive action, whether the protocol
specifically continues the right of
military intervention to compel treaty
observance or not. If the allies in the
future are so disposed they can unite
to punish Germany for treaty viola
tions without specific provision to that
effect in any document that may now
be signed. Possibly the supreme coun-
CT! expects that the league of nations
will soon be functioning to insure full
compliance on Germany's part with
the terms of the treaty she is so re-
luctant to accept.
