MINING IN WEST VIRGINIA.

A number OF the West Virginia mine
operators have protested against the
continuance OF the Senate inquiry into
the Industrial conditions in their State
during this critical stage. but il is

committee will not be swerved from
rs previously announced plan. Ameri-
cen citizens generally will unite in
the dictum that recurrence OF the
recent disturbance in Logan county
ought 10 be made impossible. They
are not inclined TO rush TO snop JUG
ments, or to indulge in the hysteric
which greeted every outcropping OF
labor trouble in the trying post
armistice period. They are ready now
to analyze Industrial unrest dis
pa ssionately, TO search for the truth
as distinguished from the nauseating
food of propaganda with which they
have been fed, and 10 find a preven-
tative for the economic waste OF
strikes and lockouts, which are a
blemish to their reputation for ef-
hc.ency. The best of reasons, how
ever. for the Senate committee &c
proceed at this time is the fact tina;
the inquiry furnishes Congress with
an entering wedge for the considera-
ticn OF industrial legislation Of COM

COLLEGE ENROLMENTS.

New York University opened last
week with an estimated enrolment of
$4,000 Students record The facili-
ties last year were hardly adequate
for the 1856 registered. and it is said
that this year hundreds were turned
away. Columbia announces that it
is opening today with record en-
rolment." Yale believes that its fresh
man class will number about 500, as
compared with 700 last year. The
Commissioner of Education in Mas
sachusetts, Payson Smith, has given
out reports of the same tenor from
all the leading New England instifu-
tions. Dartmouth makes the amaz-
ing announcement that it has refused
admittance to 1,500 applicants because

THE MIRROR OF

ceivedS credentials from more than
250 entrants. the number admitted

which have increased their tuition fees

trants. Thus Clark University, after
doubling ita charges. will have ms
many students as ever.
IL would appear that I'm this part of
America the industrial and business

DEMOCRATS AND THE TREATY.

There liz no reason why the Demo-
Gratis IN the Senate should support or
vote for the treaty with Germany
with any enthusiasm or satisfaction,
but there Is every reason why they
should refuse to join with Senator
Borah In fighting It. For he is OPP
posing Il for reasons which should
commend 1t to- all who believe in
American cooperation with Euro
rean nations In a league against war
who believe that such league is not
only desirable and advisable, but
necessary.
The pending treaty is, indeed. a
poor thing, but 1t Is so for quite other
tor Borah to oppose IL. 1t is obiec-
tic nable because It repudistes the
League of Nations, either with or
without reservations. separates-or
tends to--thls country from its as
scciates In the war, frees us from the
performance of duties that ought 60
