NO PLACE FOR A FIGHT.

Sioux City is a terment Of strikes.
Twelve hundred mortar mixers and
laborers are out with a demand for
so and 80 cents an hour. Approx
mately 1000 building tradesmen are
out asking for 1928 an hour and the
street car union has made a demand
for closed shop and a nine hour day
at so and SIS cents an hour with 20
cents overtime.
Sioux City's troubles are the trou-
bles Of other cities and the troubles
that are coming TO other cities. The
strike spirit seems to be taking on
the aspect Of a contagious hysteria
like a Doukobar uprising or the gam
bling speculation that is rife among
those who have made easy money.
Another suggestion from the num-
Der OF strikes, which are Of course
consequent upon a refusal Of de-
mands, is that we are coming closer
to the jumping of place. There is
bound to be a jumping OF place as
there is limit to everything. An
aviator may go higher and higher but
he gets to a place at last where he
can't breathe and comes down blind
and frozen. The atmosphere runs
out, Perhaps the number Of strikes
indicate the industrial atmosphere is
getting thin
Strikes and lockouts are dangerous
things under present conditions. They
are like dancing on thin ice or scuf-
fling over basket Of eggs.
The conclusion of industrial and
business observers who have the ia
cilities for a wide view Of conditions
and the trained eyesight to see clear
ly, Is that something Is due to happen
to US. When it happens it will hap
pen all at once. That's the way such
happenings have always come
A narrow trail over q gulf Of IN
known depth where two can perhaps
pass safely by mutual assistance u q

THE WOMEN MUST WAIT.

Disappointment came to the wom-
en- thru Delaware where they had
builded high hopes OF the ratification
OF the amendment which would ad-
nit them 10 full voting privileges.
Just where this optimism on the
part of the suffraEists came from is
not easy to locate by the vote in the
Delaware house which stood 20 to 9
in the final vote after changes for
parliamentary purposes, &c to S.
1t begins 10 look as tho Iowa

part OF the incident Is that 1t had

nation doubtless is that Its killing in

A THREE MAN CONTEST.
rSnoux City Journal

Presidential primaries show con-
clusively that the three leading can
didates for the republican nomina-
ton have been marked and qualified.
They are General Wood, Governor
Lowden and Senator Johnson. TIL,
race will become a contest among
these three. IT Is the first time In
the history Of the party that the
candidates have been SO conspicuous
ly known 30 long In advance. Even
Mckinley and Lincoln were not &C
copied candidates among the masses
as are the three leaders at this time.
Judge Hughes was not in the race
until the convention which nominal
cd him was assembling. Harrison
was an unknown candidate. Garfield
was not thought Of before the con-
vsntion. The things for which can
didates stand were never 90 well
understood except in the case Of Nc
Ktnley. who was the apostle Of pro-
tective tariff.
