SALT O. THE EAPTH.

Nick, he was just an Ital<l, Stocky and broad of girth. And they used to call him dago, But he proved to be salt O the earth. He was willing and strong and my
 striker, He cooked and he pitched my tent, And he dug me a hole from the shell
 fire, And he followed wherever I went. Oh! Many a night on the outposts We lay in the forest damps, Watching the front line rockets, When the stars were like harbor
 lamps. While he told of his Roman Cam
 pagna, Brown girls and the chestnuts and
 wine, And the moonlight on milk white When the priests came blessing the
 vine. And he lies where he fell in battle, In a little French village lane, Where the water stinks in the shell
 holes And the corpses are washed by rain. Nicolali de Santo de Saga, Your country should know your
 worth, They called you "Wop' and a
 ''dago," By God! You were salt O the earth

SALARIES ARE EISCUSSED
Assistant City Engineer Will Receive
 $2, 100 Instead of S2.OOO.

The salary committee voted last night to recommend to the common council that the salary of the assistant city engineer be increased $4OO<m mak- ing it $2, 400 and that of the drafting engineer increased s350, making it S2,OOO. It was explained that both men were valuable to the department and should receive the increases. While it was suggested that other sal- ary increases should be made, never theless 1t was felt that due to the ordinance adopted in January by the council that all salaries then adopted should stand for one year and fur ther that in a few months all salar- les would again be considered, the matter could not be taken up now. The water board sent the committee a communication asking for 20 per cent increase in wages for the superintendent.

THE BOSTON POLICE.

Following the strike of policemen inevitable happened, lawless elements of the populace arose and created dis order to the limit of their ability. be- ing finally stopped by the few remain ing keepers of civic peace who re- malned faithful to their employers, the people of Boston. Petty thefts were reported from several stores, the windows of which had been broken by a stone throwing crowd.
 The trouble in Boston has arisen over the attempt to fight the union- ization of the police force. Several members have been suspended, on the ground that they have broken police regulations by becoming affiliated with a labor body. Their fellow members demanded the suspended ones rein statement and went out on strike to enforce their demands.
 The right of the police to join any body of workmen is being tested, that is what is taking place. We will al- low the principle of "collective" bar gaining, as it applies to the police. to be decided by the people of Boston. for better or for worse. It appears to us that the officer who desires to prove an efficient public servant should re- frain from becoming allied with any labor body, as he would from taking a. leading part in politics. Men in uniform are not allowed, by public sentiment. to actively campaign for political body. neither should they be allowed to be- come part of a distinct class of the people. The right of "collective bar gaining as it obtains to the police man, we are not prepared to discuss. He should be paid for his work in the proper manner, but he usually enters upon his duties with a full knowledge he is to obtain for the service ren- dered. He also has the privilege of resigning at any time. He should be content with his duties as they have been laid out for him when he under takes them.
 Organized labor is not to blame for the Boston riot it probably had no wish to preciptate trouble. It was probably understood that the police

UNIONIZING ART.

The actors strike is over and ap- parently all sides are happy. It was something that had to come. It was good that it did take place but now that it is over everything should be done to accelerate the presentation of plays. The theater is an institution that can hardly be allowed to remain dormant; the people desire to be amused, thrilled and all that sort of thing and the playhouse is the most universal form of world entertain ment.
 Whether the world of the actor did the right thing by joining itself to la Dor seems to be matter of contro- versy between the actors themselves some feeling that they are laborers as we'll as anys other group of working people, while others feel their work is an art and should not be placed on the same level as labor, one actress going so far as to say that art as a quality cannot be unionized. Be that as it may, labor surely has secured no great victory by securing the allegi- ance of the Equity for the union prin- cipa1 of closed shop has been dis carded and an open shop has been se- cured by the managers as concession by the actor. It is doubtful whether the Equity associa ation can really con- tinue to be of the best service to the actor as long as it remains with the c. l.. U. The Fidelity association is undoubtedly better in that it upholds art-considers the theater as some thing beyond9 the realms of labor, which is really what it should be. A union card, although it might insure an actor a position, will never make him an actor.

mander-in- chief to martial music and the enthusiastic applause of the mul- titude that is greeting them. The boys in blue raise palsed hands to obso- lete uniform hats in a salute to youth which has undertaken to keep alive the spirit of '65.
 Meanwhile, to perpetuate the G. A. R. or an organization similar to it, the veterans of the Civil War are planning to merge, if it may be achieved, sol dier bodies of today into their rapidly thinning ranks. Thus a half a cen- tury hence the traditions of all who fought will be kept before the public. The boys of '19 will be all that is left then, but they viii pause, in their session, to pay regards to the boys of '65. It is @ pretty sentiment that is back of this step, let us hope it meets with the idea of the soldier of today.
 At meeting, in November, the American Legion will consider such plans as may now be made for the merging of the veteran associations. The Spanish War Veterans will be in- cluded, it is probable It will be inter- esting to see what will be done by this organization, which represents the greatest attempt yet made to organize a national group of German War Vet erans.
 But, whatever they do, the G. A. R. commands the respect and admiration of the populace. It's enthusiasm over it's modern fighters knows no bounds, neither does it's acknowledgment of debt to an army which has nearly been wiped out by time.

were to fight the thing out on it's merit and let things go at that. A crowd of hoodlums, however, took ad- vantage of the opportunity, as veteran criminals will if Boston goes long un- protected, and proved what is to be expected. There is no tendency for the policemen to return until order again reigns and volunteers are being sought to perform patrol duty. They have gone out on strike, and hang the consequences to the city which it is their duty to protect. If they are al- lowed to become unionized there is no indication that there will not be a re- turn of the incident of last night, thereby defeating the very purpose which they tried to obtain.
 Law and order cannot bow to the wishes of any particular branch of men. For the protection of nearly one hundred per cent. of us there must be facilities for it's enforcement, The unlonization of policemen is a mis- take.
