Will Approach Crisis.
The situation will rapidly approach
a crisis. The United States railroad
board at Chicago has ordered reduc-
tions in wages for July |, and that
date will witness the commencement
of the contest between the men and
the government authority which is
sought to be exercised under the act
OF congress.
Public men in congress and in Of
fetal life outside of congress, realize
that the situation will be serious and
that for a time it may be precarious,
warranting apprehension.
But the judgment is that it will
yield, first, to the operation of eco
nomic laws and reason, and, second,
to public opinion. There can be no
question, it is declared by all close
observers and deep thinkers upon
the subjects, that economic law die
tates lowering of costs of operating
the roads, and reduction of the
freight rates imposed during war

time and which in peace time are
holding back industry on the one
hand and hurting the railroad on the
other.
Public Thinks it Over.
The public is being advised oi
these facts and is thinking them over
Once public sentiment has crystal
lied, it will be the verdict of the
whole country, in favor of the eco
nomic condition, and the psychologi-
cal effect of such a decision is ex-
pected to bring assent in the policy
proposed to be put into effect.
The result is counted upon to be
that no group of the population of
the country, distinct minority, can
hope successfully to stand out
against the thought and decision of
the mass. 1t has been tried in Eng
land twice and the will of the ma
jority has prevailed. A railroad
strike, in these circumstances, ap-
preaching the magniture of ma
tional calamity of destructive pro-
portions. is regarded as impossible.

all things to all men, but that the
central idea of his policy contains the
elements of being elaborated into
such practice which would in the end
satisfy two groups ostensibly at odds
Assen.s 70 Major Demands.
The president has assented to the
major demand OF each group, be-
cause they accord with his own feel
ings; he is firm in the preservation
of American independence and rights,
and, at the same time, he is in SYM
pathy with the great humanitarian
thought that America shall do ITS
part in promoting common sense
projects for the union OF the Chris
tian people of the world to prevent
wars
The ways and means OF working
this policy out are now occupying
| his deep attention, in consultation
with Secretary of State Hughes
There was little ripple of amuse-
ment in official and congressional
Washington when it was made
known during the week that there
had been a deal of fuss and feathers
over the disarmament question, and
that in the seeming race IN certain
quarters in congress to beat the
president to it," the executive de-
partment OF the government had had
in fact stolen march on the active
ones in congress and had already
Started something"
A few weeks ago it was made
known that the president did not
want his hand forced by congress on
the disarmament proposal When
this became known the proponents
in congress renewed their activity.
President Already at Work
Suddenly it was announced, ap-
propriately and unostentatiously,
that the activities were not offensive
to the executive department, Then
the fact came out that the executive
had already been at work upon the
subject, acting upon his own right
and privilege, and the process OF
sounding out the nations OF the
world had been under way even
while the agitation was on in con-
gress.
1t is expected that there will be |
cessation or agitation in congress
with the result that the situation will |
be allowed to rest where it properly |
belongs-in the hands of the execu-
tive.
President Harding has been for
some time interesting himself in the
most momentous domestic question,
and this week renewed his attention
to the subject That is, the ques-
ton of the future of the railroads, in
reduced freight rates and 4
changes in labor conditions and pay
for the railroad operatives. The
president, of course, is confronted by
limitations in what he can actually |
accomplish, but at that he can do
4 great deal. He can act as ad-

Slayers to Die

consciousness Then Death
Gas Will Be Turned on in
Death Cell.

| Reno. New, June 4.-Thuddine
crash OF bullets or sickening DROP
from scaffold will no longer bring
legal death in Nevada. Instead
drugged into Inconsistencies, Grim
inals will be placed in an air-tight
chamber, where death will come in
stealthy approach of tasteless
odorless gas.
Prior to January OF this year a
man condemned to death had choice
of one of two ways to die. He could
! select the bullet or the hangman's
| moose. Choice was removed by the
last legislature, meeting in Carson
City early this year, when it passed
a bill decreeing death penalties
should be exacted through the use
of deadly gas.
Nearing Completion.
A new tier of cells is rapidly near
ing completion at the state peniten-
tiary in Carson City. In that tier
of cells are three which to outward
appearance correspond exactly with
the other cells in the prison houser.
Written over the entrance of each
cell, unseen except by eyes that must
soon face death, is legend of
anguish, for the three cells are death
cells. ...
Death cells in literal truth, for the
cell in which the condemned pris-
oner passes the last days on earth
is the cell where death will steal on
him or her some time during the
fateful week which has been set
apart as the week of death.
Invisible Gas Pipe.
Close by the death cells lies the
executioner's room. There are no
switches to swing into contact here,
nor buttons to push which will re-
lease drop beneath the prisoners
feet. Instead, great tanks of death
dealing gas stand waiting the day OF
carrying out sentence pronounced as
penalty for crime. Pipes lead from
this room to each of the death cells.
Their outlets cannot be seen by the
eyes of the condemned, yet through
the openings leading into the cells
death will rush when the signal has
been given.
In passing sentence death is deslg- |
mated to take place within a week.
Under Nevada's new law, when the
final week arrives any meal may be
the condemned mans last meal on
earth, for in the food on the fatal day
will be a strong opiate. As he fin
shes eating drowsiness will close his
eyes in sleep, the window TO his cell
will be closed air-tight, the close
fitting door will swing on him for
The last time, witnesses will take their
places, and as the deadly gas is
forced into the death cell the con-
1emned man will go TO his Maker
without ever having known that final
,ayment is being made.
