The Seal of the Finger.

were and they are likely to be lost, but every
man, woman and child OF us has ten good fingers
that will infaibIy act seals and signatures.
Being fnger-printed has criminal suggestion
to it But because they efficient in identifying
the right person we'll the wrongdoer, finger
prints can be made equally useful in commercial
life. The Postoffice Department has decided to

to supplement the signature OF a postal savings
depositor or a substitute for the signature if

staace- ..ss to a witnessed X. And scientists
have Dar.shed the inky fingers and subtituted

Best Way to Quell Mobs.

THE Secretary of War hesitates to use Federal
i troops against railroad strikers because he
fears that some will be killed when soldiers
are put in action.
The strikers American citizens convinced
of the justice of their cause. 1t is better perhaps
that mails should be delayed and freight ship
ments held up than that there should be mourning
over dead husbands, brothers and fathers.
In this connection, however it is interesting
to read that the War Department proposes to use
tear gas instead of bullets if the employment of
troops is found necessary.
cloud of tear gas should serve as effectively
to break up any riot as 1000 rifles. We hope the
proposal is adopted if troops are ordered out
Soldiers could release this vapor without exposing
themselves to the FIRE of the strikers The
strikers themselves would be rendered helpless but
not permanently hurt. They would have no means
of defending themselves and no means of retalia-
tion. A mob is useless in combating gas warfare.
How much better this will be than the old
method. In past strike riots not few workmen
have been killed. Their families, their neighbors
and their sympathizers, naturally, have been I'M
pressed with the cruelty and injustice of the gov
ernment. But in this the men simply would
be taught lesson. After becoming gas casuals
they would be we'll ever in few hours.
In fact, of tear gas can turn small-scale
war into musical comedy affair. The rail
strikers may become the Don Quixotes of indus

Evasion of Duty.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
As an American citizen who be-
iIeves in maintaining the suprem-
acy of the law and the authority
of the government. and Is ready to
make any sacrifices therefor, l ear
nestIy protest against the proposal
attributed to John H. Bartlett. First
Assistant Postmaster General, TO
have the mails carried by govern
ment trucks and private owners OF
automobiles.
In the first place such a proposi-
ton is silly and impracticable, but
II otherwise. of far more and tran
sceuding Importance is the duty of
the government to face squarely
the issues involved. and maintain
its authority regardless Of its effect
upon the mail service.
Such action would be construed
by the strikers as a retreat IL not
a surrender on the part of those in
authority, and in reality would be
a cowardly evasion of plain duty
resting upon the government, and
practically an admission on its part
that IL is either unable or Is un-
willing to assume the responsibility
of protecting the public and the
individual in his constitutional lib
erty to work. and the railroads In
unmolested security of their prop
critics.
Such proposition would be
wholly unnecessary. even IL prac-
ticable, IL those in authority had
the backbone to discharge their
manifest constitutional duties by
declaring uneQuivocalfy that every
resource and power of the govern
ment would be called into action
to protect the railroad properties.
the free movement of trains, and
every person who was willing TO
accept employment in the service
of the roads. They should go fur
ther and order the arrest and pros
ecution of the leaders of this
strike. who are defying the gov
ernment. violating the laws. incit-
ing to riot and blodshed. and inter
fering with interstate commerce by
their conspiracy to that end.
If the Federal authorities are
lacking in nerve let them find an in
spring and splendid example in
Governor Allen of Kansas. He fnds
the laws of his State ample TO
meet all the exigencies of the situ-
alton. and by having the courage
and the inspiring sense of duty to
enforce them the railroads in Kan
sas are being run without inter-
ference. and coal Is being mined
because men know that he will pro-
tect them in their God-given right
to work without first securing the
consent of Gompets.
Labor unions may be all right
so long as their purposes and ac-
tivities are legitimate. but when
they set themselves above the laws,
and align themselves in opposition
to the courts and the government,
and treat with cynical indifference
the rights of society. 1t is about
time to put an end to their auto
cratic>tyranny.

Treatment of Prisoners.

THE government of France strives to be len
i lent with political prisoners. Gustave Bou-
vet, crack-brained young anarchist, was freed
from jail before the expiration of his sentence be-
cause public sentiment revolted against keeping
any in a cell because of his political opinions
The other day he tried to shoot President
Millerand and nearly succeeded. In his heart
there gratitude. He considered govern
ment which is, in many ways, the most democratic
in the world unjustihcd autocracy. He
wished to advertise his views by killing the head
of that government.
Bouvet may have been let out Of jail too soon
Like most of his type he probably is lazy. He
resented being forced to make his own living-as
most of the political prisoners confined in the
United States would resent the demand that they
labor in order to exist.
Then again, he may not have been confined
in the proper sort of jail. A year of confinement
alone is not apt to make much change in the men
tai condition of an anarchist. 1t has tendency
to embitter him still more against all existing
forms of restraint imposed for the good of society
Political prisoners should be forced to go to
school. The French Jail authorities could have
taught Bouvet great deal about the science Of
government during the year he spent their guest
if they had taken advantage of the opportunity.
American jailers have much the same opportunity.
