Had any one of the several offers made previously been accepted of submitting the disputed points 10 arbitration the prospects would have been as good and a certain part of the trouble and suffering caused the country would have been eliminated. But in the defiant atti- tude that the miners took the country was prepared to bear the burden of the hardships until the production of coal was obtained through state or government action. The situation was showing improvement and the author ities taking action to that very end, all of which was fully realized by the miners.

THE TREATY SITUATION.

According to one authority there is testlessness among the democrats at the stand that is being taken by the president regarding the treaty. There ls a feeling that he is holding it I'D when they are desirous that action should be taken even though a com promise has to be reached. It is rec- osnized that his policy is causing de- ay and 1t Is only a question how long hey are willing 10 remain passive m Ter it. When 1t is shown that there is full understanding of the situation and that there is a disposition on the part or those who desire to see the aocument ratified in the best form possible, even 10 the extent of enter Ing into arrangements themselve. whereby the treaty with reservations can be approved. a change of front may be indicated but as yet this ses- sion the most important expression about the treaty has come from France where certain of the papers Indicate that France would approve the reservations adopted by the ma. 3ority vote Of the senate.
 ~ Ha0 even pfen claimed by one Oi the Paris lailies that tte reservation. dc net kill the treaty. which is tho same view as taken of them by ex.

New York City: Training School For
 Americanism.

AmericanISm.
 New York City, just now being criti- cized as a hotbed of alien agitation, is cited by bulletin of the National Geo. graphic society for it's tremendous service in absorbing our immigrant citizens.
 If the general concern about the alien menace leads to broader national sym pathy for those places which have borne the brunt of a national burden, it will not have been in vain. says the bulletin, which quotes from a com munication by William Joseph Showal- ter concerning New York's immigration problems as follows:
 Any story of New York begins with it's people. and in its vast aggregation of humanity there is a wealth of in terest.
 Let those who have been pessimistic about our immigration study New York. It seems unbelievable; but if every resident whose parents were born in America were to leave the city it's standing as the second most .ponu- lous center in the world would not be affected.
