None would say positively that a settlement would be effected tomorrow. but all were optimistic con- cerning the negotiations.
 Both sides rSaained secretive ra- garding the conference. The railroad mn spent a greater part of the day examining schedules of wages now in effect and discussing alleged in- eoualities, and it was recalled that Director General Hines several months ago said that the railroad ad- ministration was not averse to ad- justing inequalities.

that wild eat" as accepted in the par lance of labor circles and I believe elsewhere. is properly a term to be ap- piled only to unauthorized, irrespon- slble walkouts called in violation of contract agreements. As MT. Taylor has laid the responsibility for these strikes upon the union heads, I think the inconsistency should be cleared. 9
 Mir. Taylor reJoined that inasrnuch as the strikes had been called in spike of the existence of supposedly strike proof contracts between opera tors and miners, he Still believed he was right in his choice of terms. He added that he believed the miners in the south western field did not need an inerea sed wage scale as much as ''an unnolested opportunity 10 work, the lack of which could not in justice be balanced against the present scale"
 Representatives of the mine workers unions presented a number of demands designed primarily to place wages and working conditions on a uniform level within the field. Chief among the demands were the cost of moving loaded and empty cars to and from the working base be assumed by the operator at all mines. and that miners be paid for time lost by the rising of water in the mines.

But alas we, unfortunately, are
drifting back to the old days Men
prominent in partisan circles are
writhing. They are stirring the peo-
pie with charges of the most sen
sational and often ludicrous sort, for
the purpose of melting strife and
dissension. 1t is plainly evident that,
in the coming campaign, the ancient
political practice of "mud Singing
is to be INDUCED in. Interests of in
dividuals are to be promoted by fair
means or foul, whether or no they
are qualified for the public positions
which they seek, whether or no they
are worthy of public trust.
Party men will be placed in public
office on party lines, unless the voters
register a protest at the polls in such
strength as to overwhelm the pro-
fessional politicians, and appointive
positions will be filed by henchmen
as a reward for "meritorious' SER
vices.
It is such methods as are employed
by the old-line political gangsters
that do much to promote socialism and
radicalism in the land. At the best
politics is "rotten," so it is said.
When election time comes, let US voice
our disapproval of the "mud singer"
at the polls.

POLITICS. POLITICS.

Politics in Idaho is warming up,
with announcements, from week to
week, of additional candidates. for
high offices within the gift of the
people of the state. And to further
complex the pre-conventiOn situation,
are conflicting efforts on the parts
of Supporters of each of several presi-
Dental possibilities, who. are striving
ing for support for their favorite
candidates in the Idaho conventions
to be held for the purpose of naming
delegates to the national conventions.
Large, indeed, is becoming the crop
Of announced and possible aspirants
for the governOrship and the U. S.
senatorial toga in Idaho, and indi-
cations point to more than one bat
tie royal within the nominating con
ventiOns, which are to substitute for
the direct primary in the elimination
process. More than one flower of po-
litical ambition will be plucked in the
bud in the conventions, and more
than one bitter disappointment will re-
suit, the effect of which may be
keenly felt in the autumn campaign.
In fact, the present alignment is
split by so many differences of opin-
ion and purposes, that no surprise
will be occasioned if strength of can
didates defeated in the convention
halls of their own parties, be thrown
to the opposition in the campaign /
the general election.

All energies supposedly were being di-
rected toward winning the war, and
consequently slight interest compare
lively speaking, was taken by the
people in the election, save to elm
mate such candidates for public of
fee who were felt to be hostile to
the American nation-to the state
and its people
Party utilization was in many in
stances quite ignored in 1918, for the
primary requisite, and the acid test
to which all candidates were put
by right-thinking American people,
was loyalty to the government of
the United States, and secondly,
qualification for the office to which
the candidate aspired. Appeal was
made to the public on patriotic
grounds, and response was noble.
1t was felt in many quarters that a
new era in American political annals
had been brought about by condi-
lions of war, and that the day of
purely partisan politics, national and
state, had passed into history

NEW YORK, Nov. 6.-One of thf
important questions to be considered
by the assembly of the league of ma
tions at its first meeting, beginning
November Is, at Geneva, will be the
preparations required to enable the
league to use, if necessity arises, the
weapon of international economic anc
financial blockade contemplated III
Article XVI of the Covenant.
A memorandum by Sir Eric Drum
mond the secretary general, now be-
ing distributed to the members OF
the league, and received here by the
league to enforce peace shows that
this question will come before the
assembly on the recommendation of
the league council in the form of q
proposal to appoint body to be
known as the International Blockade
Commission. The secretary general
suggests that this commission consist
of representatives nominated by the
countries entitled to permanent men,
bership in the council, with the 2ddi-
ton of representatives of four other
members of the league selected by
the assembly for the purpose of
studying the problem and settling
the general plan of action, the organ
ization of the more permanent ma
chinery required and the principles
on which it should work.
This question is of peculiar inter
est to the United States, because one
of the first problems such commits
sion would consider promises to be
the method of rendering a blockade
effective against states which are
not members of the league. In a
report adopted by the council of the
league at the San Sebastian meet
ing in August, NJ. Tittoni, the Ital-
ian representative, stated: 1T should
be clear that the states members of
the league of nations who declare the
blockade have the right to render 1t
effective against all states including
those who are not members of the
league, but they have not the right
to force the states who do not form
part of the league to declare the
blockade themselves"
Article XVI provides that, should
any member of the league resort to
war in disregard of its covenants, all
the other members shall undertake
Immediately to subject it to the sew
erance of all trade or financial re-
lations X X Y and the preven-
ton of all financial, commercial or
personal intercourse between the ma
tionals of the covenant breaking state
and the nationals of any other state
a member of the league or
not' and that the members shall
support ore another in the
financial and economic measures
taken under this article.
The use of this weapon" says
the secretary-general, "is in certain

circumstances specific duty i'm
posed by Article XVI. This>duty can
not be effectively carried out with
, out great loss of time and efficiency
unless there has been considerable
previous preparation before the time
at which action is required.
: Situations might we'll arise in
which the knowledge that the weapon
| is ready for use would have very
salutary effect. Many people think
that the league is founded more upon
good intentions than upon cool
/ consideration of the stern realities OF
international trouble. 1t is, there
fore, desirable on general grounds
that while the first meetings of the
council and the assembly should give
the world the positive hope of remov-
ing misunderstanding and promoting
! international cooperation, they should
also show quite clearly that the men,
bers of the league as a whole are
determined, ia necessity arises, to
enforce their will by effective action
on any particular country which in
| the circumstances contemplated by
the covenant defies the general ver-
dict of the world"
The memorandum calls attention
to one important difference between
the two forms of pressure economic
and military which the league may
use, as follows: where a member
of the league reports to war in dis
regard of specified covenants, all
other members of the league are by
the covenant itself specifically OBJ
EU0H tn an,1y- ho
/ They are not similarly obliged to use
their military or naval forces. In
the latter case. the Article XVI only
provides that it shall be the duty of
the council in such cases to recon-
mend to the several governments con-
cerned what effective military or
naval foYes shall severally contrib
ute"
The secretary-general is of the
opinion that the article clearly con-
templates that, so far as possible,
the responsibility for enforcing &C.
onomic pressure shall be decentraliz-
ed, /. e., a primary responsibility
rests upon each government to take
action so far as its own nationals and
own national machinery are concern
ed, arrangements being made by each
of them separately and not by a sin
gle international authority.'
At the same time, he concludes that
a central coordinating authority will
be required if the weapon of econom-
ic pressure is to be efficiently used.

- tratiOn proved to be only an in
Permission between the two acts of the
Cleveland drama. History gives but
passing glance at the one president
whose predecessor became his success
or, who had to give up the presidential
chair to the man he took it from.
Although Harrison had more brains
than Cleveland. Cleveland had larger
nature. and that Is what counts most
in the leadership of men.
Notwithstanding Benjamin Harrison
was the grandson of president, in
whose house he was born. his father
was poor and the boy was brought up
plainly.
Graduating from small Ohio col
lege, Harrison married at twenty the
girl to whom he engaged himself at
eighteen, and they went to housekeep-
ing in Mtle three-rOom cottage in
indianapolis. He was not admitted to
the bar until after his marriage, and
the first money he ever made was as
a court crier at $3.50 day. Later on
he helped out his lean practice with
his salary as clerk of the supreme
court of the state. Then came the

man to the sea: Afterward he rose
to high and prosperous rank in the
practice of law.
The only political Office Harrison
ever held before his election to the
presidency was seat In the senate.
Defeated for reelection to that body
in the year before he was elected pres
ident. he left Washington with no
thought that he would soon return as
president-elect, and he frankly de-
scribed himself as "a dead duck"
The only candidate that the rank
nominate in 1888 was Blaine. But he
was not well, and he refused to make
a contest for the nomination. At last
he cabled from Scotland: "Take Har-
rison." And the convention indiffer-
emily took him.
rison administration-the Mckinley
tariff act; the silver act, which more
than doubled the purchase Of that
metal by the treasury; the Sherman
law on the subject Of trusts: the de-
pendent pension act. and the first Pan.
American cOngress-hardly belong in
this little story, because none Of them
originated with the president himself.
He did not rise to leadership, and con-
gress took the reins. All the while he
sat in the White House in cold aloOf-
ness.
With the cry Of "God help the sur
plus" the Republicans gave the coun-
try in Harrison's administration the
first "billion-dOllar congress-" the ap-
preparations for the tw0,year term ris-
ing to that unprecedented total. To
the popular protest Speaker Reed re-
torted: "This is a billion-dollar coun-
try" But the country did not feel rich
enough to pay the higher tariff rates
of the Mckinley act.
That law was passed only seven
weeks before the congressional cleo
tons in 1890. OF course anyone who
had anything to sell seized upon the
excuse to mark up prices. The SHOP
ping women" rose In their fury ut the
higher cost Of living, and the voters
overwhelmed the Republican majority
in the house.
That was the forerunner OF a still
greater political overturn in the presi-
dental election In 1892, when Harrison
went down under a sweeping victory
for Cleveland.
