(NeW YORK Evening World.)
No more remarkable history OF
American industrial life has been
written than the latest chapter in tn =
tangled affairs of the PHILADELPHIA
Rapid Transit Company
Some 1000 employees Of the COM
pany. it was announced, have offered
to loan 100000 Of their savings to
Thomas E. Mitten for use in the firh.
with the Stotesbury group of finan.
ciers.
No less remarkable was the report
that the employees have voluntarily
offered to defer a wage increase al
ready agreed upon because it would
complicate the difficulties of finan-
cling the company.
This is indeed happy contrast to
the situation here and in other
cities, where hostile employees con-
front hostile managers with blunt
demands. and without regard to the
physical possibilities Of their real
iZation.

A Salesman Of Democracy.

Mr.. Roosevelt opens his campaign
for the vice-presidency by addressing
himself particularly to those mot
Democrats" 1t would seem proper
for him in that role Of salesman OF
Democracy to show his wares. to
dwell at some length on the quality Of
his goods. Instead Of this he talks
about what he regards the defects Of
the Republican party. and, under
cover Of assuming to say something
useful. endeavors to arouse the
prejudices that existed eight years
ago. Surely il he wishes to make a
fair comparison he should also ask
consideration of the Democratic party
Of eight years ago when Wilson was
elected on the plea that he had kept
US out of war and Mr.. Cox was pro-
German to the nth degree.
What those who are not Democrats
would like Mr.. Roosevelt to do is to
tell US explicitly what the Democratic
party has done and explain some Of
the many things which it has not but
should have done. Doubtless those
who are Democrats would not like to
have him do this and doubtless also
he will not. An explicit recital of the
commissions and omissions of the
Democratic party and its administra-
ton is the last thing anyone running
on the Democratic ticket cares to
have, and in view of what is already
known of it such a recital would not
seem necessary for the rest of us. We
are thoroughly convinced we can get
along nicely for the next four years
without a Democratic administration
and would be decidedly apprehensive
II we thought the country was to be
forced to endure four more years Of it.

"Self Determination" Abandoned,

tBoSton Transcript
1t seems to be superf1uous to ask
what becomes of the Wilsonian doc
trine of self determination" under
this announcement of the Wilson in
ternational policy. It is thrown over
board, that is all. The people of Fin
land. of Lithuania, of Letvia, of
Georgia, of Armenia, were never any
more Russian than the Poles are Rus
sian. They are entitled to the same
right to govern themselves that the
Poles possess, and the right of each
is absolute. Whence comes this doc
trine that when free Russia, with a
government based on popular suf-
frage, is at last restored, the Lithuan-
ians. Let's, Esthonians. Georgians and
Armenians must be placed once more
under Russian rule? The United
States is surely committed by this
letter to a dangerous as well as a
tyrannous course, in so far as the
announcement of an amateur
diplomatist, speaking for discreditsd
administration, can be said to COM
NIT it.

Worked for and Exemplified.
(The Republican JournaD


President Mckinley was popular
with the workers of this country be-
cause he was their friend. Thousands
have said: Harding is of the same
type of manhood as was Mckinley"
There is a good reason for this.
Harding has the modesty, the kindly
human sympathy, the tolerance and
wisdom which endeared Mckinley to
the people of the United States.
Neither of these men were lifted into
prominence by wealth or by the craft
of politicians. Their rise was due to
their industry and the conscientious
earnestness, with which they under
took, worked for and thus exemplified
the real purposes for which life is
given to man.

POTATO MOSAIC
Progress Being Made
in the Study of This
Disease - Summary
of wn F act S
About 1t

Orono. Me-. Aug. 12-The following
was issued this afternoon from the
office of Charles D. Woods, director
of the Maine Agricultural experiment
station at the University of Maine:
For some years the pathologists of
the Maine Agricultural Experiment
Station have been giving some atten-
ton to the study of potato mosaic,
first independently and later as Il
joint or cooperative project with the
Office of Cotton, Truck and Forage
Crop Disease Investigations of the
Bureau of Plant Industry. Very
gratifying progress has been made
during the last two years and 1T
seemed desirable to prepare a bulle-
tin on this subject in order that
Maine potato growers might have the
benefit of any information that the
Station has. The manuscript for this
bulletin is now in the hands of the
printer, but in the ordinary course of
events this means a delay Of two,
three or even more months before the
publication is ready for distribution.
Therefore a copy of the summary
and certain recommendations for the
control of potato mosaic are given
at this time.
Summary
Potato mosaic has been known in
Europe for many years and in Maine
since 1912. At present it is well es-
tablished in this State. 1t is also
we'll distributed over the United
States.
The mosaic of tobacco, a plant re-
lated to the potato. has been thor
oughly studied and apparently is
quite similar to potato mosaic How
ever, there are important differences
between the two maladies.
Potato mosaic has certain marked
effects upon the appearance, physi-
ology. and yield of potatoes.
1t is transmitted by the tubers of
infected plants. whether or not these
plants have had time to show the
usual symptoms before death. This
transmission is not modified by seed
treatment.
It's infectiousness has been proved
by means Of grating and of inocu-

1t is said that reports are coming
to the executives Of the railroad
brotherhoods from all over the coun-
try that landlords are using the re-
cent advance in wages as an excuse
to raise the rent of railway employees.
While this may be an example of
wicked profiteering. when will the
labor union people learn that any
marked increase in the wages of great
bodies Of workers is sure to result in
an increase in some of the things
which they have to buy? And this
advance in prices not only affects
them but all others who buy the same

The Service Men.

Secretary Baker warns the men en-
listed in the military service against
political activity. This Of itself is
proper and while 1t does not affect
the ex-service men it does serve to
remind us Of their we'll known atti-
tude because of what they learned in
the service. They saw with their own
eyes the deplorable waste; they ex-
perienced the contempt in many in
stances of the political upstart in au-
thority; they know Of the sacrifices
made and the utter disregard of this
by many who should have had regard
for it; they bought Liberty bonds out
Of meagre savings only to witness al
most innumerable instances of gross
extravagance: they went where they
were sent, leaving dependents to
promises that weren't fulfilled: they
were made aware of profiteering at
their expense and from which they
were not protected by those in au-
thority as they should have been; and
along with becoming acquainted with
actualities they arrived at clearer
comprehension of conditions than is
possessed by the peddlers of panaceas
Not all the men who saw service
are wise men or assume to be, so far
as we have been able to learn; not all
Of. them, it is fair to assume, are
abundantly endowed with sound judg-
ment; nevertheless it goes without
the saying that their experiences were
valuable in many ways, and alto
gether the valuable exceeds those that
were detrimental. One eternal fact
was indelibly impressed on the minds
Of all. the fact that chaos leads no.
where but to defeat that law and or
der there must be if success in any
thing worth while is to be attained.
In camp and on the field. wherever
they went this was being forced upon
their minds. They and this country
are now having the fruits Of that.
The service man is not hostile to
labor; in many instances he is a la
borer himself. but he knows full we'll
that mob is despisable as we'll as a
most dangerous thing. that neither
justice nor reason may be found in it,
that those who incite or lead the mob
are enemies to the WELL being Of
everybody There is tremendous
power for good in this knowledge.
The Reds have encountered it to their
sorrow from the Pacific to the Allan
tic. The attitude of the ex-seryice
men has steadied this country in
a troubled time and in crises the
real gravity Of which is but i'm
perfectly understood. Their service
here has in its way been as important
as that rendered by them in war and
we must not forget it. They will not
all vote the Republican ticket. Some
may be socialists, but whatever party
. they may favor they will contribute
an influence worthy of recognition.
and in the main entitled to respect.
