there was no sign of grief. They

doughboys of the Fifty-fourth brigade.
On their backs were overseas packs

the world that this was no peace-time

There is a serious state Of revolution
in Egypt against the British govern
ment. The old ruling class in the
country wants to get control again and
to that end it has stirred the Egyp-
tians to take up arms against the Brit
ish. The British are in the attitude of
desiring that the Egyptians have self
government to the utmost limit; but
are not willing that the country be
turned over to irresponsible plunderers
who will not regard duly established
civil and property rights

great industrial hinterland which

ton without a commissary?

The country people are numerous
in the United States. They who own
their little farms, or plantations. are
the court of final appeal. Where is
one of them who is going to surrend-
er the tract of land that he has
bought and paid for to a party or
group of radical politicians or revolu-
tionaries?
Where is the land-owing farmer
less resolved to hold on to his acres
and defend the title to them than is
the owner of railroad shares or street
car bonds?
The capitalists and the laborers in
the cities and towns may quarrel az
they please, but they will not over
turn the government or the country
nor the existing order.
"Industrialized though it is in sec
tions. the United States Is a rural re-
public. in which room for the develop
ment of individualism is abundant
and Will remain abundant for another
century or two at least.
ITO insure the future of this coun-
try. the thing most necessary is to-
protect it against land monopoly. So
long as the distribution of land shall
be general and the ways to acquire
holdings easy, the country Will be
safe-though the turbulent in the
cities demolish their tall towers and
tear up the paving stones to build bar,
ricades in the streets.

I\EEST IL TIE CITIES.

Labor agitation and unrest is con-
fined TO the cities where there are
large bodies of employees. even the
small town is immune from strikes
and lockouts TO a more or less degree
by reason of its smallness. and in
the country all that is known of the
conditions facing the manufacturer
is what is read in the newspapers.
AS general proposition. there is no
dissatisfaction among laborers on the
farms or in plants in small towns.
The number employed being small.
a strike would be useless The pur-
pose of a strike, as The News sees
it, is to cripple the business and there
by force recognition OF demands Of
the employees. This being the case. il
is necessary that a large body of en-
ployes goes out on strike.
Therefore, strikes. and lockuuts
belong d:stinctivciy TO the cities and
the country districts aYa small towns

happiness and prosperity Strikes and
lockouts are not good for either side
