Plain Words to the Miners.

President Wilson tells the coal
miners, through their chief, that they
have violated agreement by striking
against the awards of the wage com.
mission which few months age
framed scale that was mutually &C
eepted by the operators and the work
ers. And he warns them that "no gov
eminent, no employer, no person hav-
ing any reputation to protect can
afford to enter into contractual rela-
lions with any organization which
systematically or repeatedly violates
its contract" This is the plainest of
truths, and the public is now wonder
ing why the leaders of the miners
unions did not themselves say it to
their men when the strike was pro-
posed.
There can be no excuse for the con-
duet of the miners or their leaders,
the former for violating their agree
ment and the latter for allowing them
to do so without protest. The Presi-
dent has stated the case so clearly that
the chief of the union, with no alter
native before him save actual defiance
of law. has promptly aequieseed and
has ordered resumption of work. This
action on his part only increases the
wonder why he had to wait for a prod
from Washington in order to discharge
this duty, so plainly indicated by the
terms and spirit of the wage agree
ment.
Unless there is a total lack of dis
eipline in the coal miners organiza-
ton the order to resume work will be
effective and mining will be resumed.
Already great harm has been done by
the unjustifed strike. Transportation
has been checked, industries have been
crippled and enormous losses have
been suffered. The miners have very
greatly forfeited public support and
sympathy by their unwarranted action.

Sick Women" Fail as Guards

It used to be the "sick friend" who
was so convenient an excuse for at
tendance upon convivial gathering.
Now it is the "sick woman" who camou
flages the hidden store of wet goods.
Federal prohibition agents have been
recently raiding in Newark and Jersey
City and have encountered this dodge
in both places. When they have en-
deavored to search the premises where
the presence of quantities of liquor
were suspected they were refused ad.
mittance to certain rooms on the
ground that dangerously sick women
were being tended there. The rude
raiders, however, have persisted in
every case and somewhere in or back
of the "sick room" they have found
large stores of wet goods. And to their
unprofessional but perhaps dependable
eyes the patients have not appeared to
be in desperate straits or any more
unnerved by their visits than could be
accounted for, perhaps, on the ground
of failure. The "sick woman" dodge
having been exposed in these raids, it
will probably have no virtue in others
to come. Some new device must be
found to gain immunity for "satu-
rated" premises.

Bailey of Texas.

Former Senator Bailey seems to be
on the way to re-establish himself in
politics in Texas. Since he retired
from the Senate voluntarily some
years ago he has lived in the state but

races for the House and then for the
Senate he canvassed those broad plains
repeatedly.

ago, and Mr.. Bailey led the poll. Blu,
he fell short of the number Of votes
necessary to nominate, and 50 there
will be run-of between him and the
man who was next. That election will

To "Discommode" the Public.

A representative of the City En-
ployes' Association, comprising part
of the per diem workers of the District
government, is quoted as stating in re-
spect to the possibility of a strike over
the wage scale:
"This is matter for the public to
take up, and the only way to bring this
about is to discommode the public
This is perfectly frank statement
of we'll understood principle in mat
tiers of this kind. The public is to be
made the weapon and at the same time
the victim of those who are seeking to
,coeree a change of employing condi
In the present instance, if this threat
to "discommode the public" means any
thing at all it means that the city's
streets will be unswept. the city's gar
bage will be uneollected, all the work
of the sewer department, including the
pumping of sewage. will be suspended !;
the distribution of water supply will
be checked. if not stopped. In short,
If this strike is fully effective Wash
ington will be left without water and
without cleaning-exposed to sickness
and to death.
To "disccmmode" the public thus
means to bring it to the point of the
most terrible suffering and even to the
verge of the grave The point of this
effort is to compel the District Com
missioners to change a wage scale that
had been formerly adopted after due
consideration. The ground of protest
against this scale is that several years
ago a certain scale of wages paid 1t
the navy yard was adopted for the Dis
trict per diem workers and now, that
standard having been increased On ac-
count of the adjustment of the annual
bonus, the Districts scale should be
advanced as well. No permanent ar
rangement can be effected that will
bind all following boards of Commits
sioners. This was an administrative
agreement made by a prior board.
Conditions have changed. In any case
the Commissioners are responsible to
the public and to Congress for the
proper use of the funds granted them
for the employment of this miscella-
neous force of so-called per diem work
ers and, just as appropriations change
from year to year, so pay scales may
change.
The argument that because a prior
board of District Commissioners made
an arrangement that the present
board. upon the advice of its wage
hoard. does not feel justified in fol-
lowing, the public is to be "discom-
NODDED" in matters of the most vital
Consequence to health and life. is too
pfeposterous to be admitted for a mo-
ment.
If this strike is called and the men
actually leave their work in any large
numbers the Commissioners may be
embarrassed for a short period by the
need of filing their places. But their
places will be filled, the work will go
on, even if the public itself has to
take hand. For by this threat to
"discommode" the public the employees
of the District, through their leaders,
have challenged the community in
terms that must be accepted.
When the situation has returned to
normal, as it will doubtless within q
few days, the only ones disconnected
will be those who have followed the
bad advice now being given to quit
work.

JApAN's VIEW

The press of Japan while advising against undue anti-American feeling urges that the government stand firm in it's plan for occupation of sagha- lem in the face of America's protest.
 At the same time that this is being done through defense of Japan's po- sition the Japanese newspapers are melting the very feeling they pretend to be decrying. In one breath they gay "caution" and in the next they predict world conflict, obviously between Japan and the United States.
 Already the position of the Japanese is being defended as just and right eous. It seems that the press of Ja- pan is making much of delicate sit nation that could be helped by min imitation in public discussion.
