The only answer which could be given to the anthracite coal miners under the clrcumstances was that which was for- warded to the miners’ officials who after signing the coal agreement for two years sought to have the commission recalled to grant further demands. The president in denying the request took occasion to direct the attention of the men to the fact that there had been an agreement to abide by the award of the commission and laid emphasis upon. the fact that they were diposed right at the start to not only disregard that but to refuse to abide by the comtract as signed by the leaders in accordance with the understanding previously af- rived at. In approving the action of the leaders m urging the men not to strike he took occasion to inform the men that the idea of calling their concerted refusal to work a “vacation” instéad of a strike deceived no one. The purpose of their course was to bring about the effect of a strike and that is what has been accom- plished regardless of the name given it. It was intended to sway the decision of the president or to create conditions which would so operate as to obtain for the men what they sought Had the president yielded to the appeal it would have simply strengthened them in the belief that agreements ameunt to noth- ing, that all that is necessary to get ev- erything they ask for is to break con- tracts at will and force others thereby to_submit. It was a time when the test was being applied to the president as to Whether he was going to require the men to stand by their agreement or whether he was going to tell them they could make a solemn agreement a scrap of paper. There was only one answer. There has been too great display of dangerous Inclinations by the radieal slement who have no respect for law or gontracts. This the president fully re- Altzed and In answering the request of the miners as he dld he showed the gane opposition thereto that was to be expected. MAINE VOTES TODAY. This is the day that Maine holds its state election. Coming in advance of those in other states it has long been Tegarded as a contest at the ‘polls which ean indicate what the sentiment of the people is going to Be in the national elec- tion in November. As the result the claim that “As Maine goes, S0 goes the Bation” is freely made. Maine is a republican state. It will without doubt see that the republican Ticket makes a clean swesp. Even the @emocrats are inclined to concede that much in spite of the fact that there have been times in recent years when Maine has sent a democrat or two to ongress. The struggle, however, in that eommonwealth is to see how big a plu- Fality can be roLed up by the républi- cans and from the size of that decide Bow the rest of the country can be ex- pected to act later on. The idea is that if Maine rolls up an abmormal plurality for the republicans it can be taken as an indication that similar results will Tollow throughout the country, while if Maine furnishes but a small republican plurality it will indicate a close contest and anything below a normal plurality the republicans is supposed to cheer democrate. It is Maine that is the barometer state because of the fact that its election is the only ore to be held at this time. Be- ing held so far in advance of others it ie possible therefrom to get a line upon inclination of the voters and thus faine is astate in which early and ela- borate efforts are made to get the peo- ple aroused to the full significance of the campaign issues that their vétes in the state election may have a certain bear- ing upon the bigger contest to come. With women participating in the vote thers will be added uncertainty this year but with their votes being cast much the same as those by the men it should simply have the effect of inereas- ing the plurality for which due allow- ance will have to be made in consider- fag how the political tide is rumning in that state. EDUCATING IMMIGRANTS. ‘What cannot fail to be regarded hs a Fost important conference is that which %8 to be held at Plymouth, Mass.,, the Jast three days of this week for the dis- - eussion of the problem of educating the fmmigrants who come to the industrial plants of that state. In commeetion with Americanization work the legislature of onr neighboring etate has authorized the state board of education te coop- erate with the cities and towns in pro- wyiding for the education of persons over 21 who cannot speak, read and write English. Prominent leaders in inla:t- rial service and prominent educators, “Both in that and other states will ad- dress the gathering as the result of which it is hoped that valuable help will @t Jeast be secured in perfecting plans for the cooperation which must neces- #arily be given by the industries and #hools of the state in dealing with the fmmigrant, so that he will be 6f greater ‘Bemefit both to himself and the coun- How much aetion along this ling is meeded is well disclosed by the fact that there is such a large number of immi- grants arriving at the present tims the speak, read and write the English lag- guage and they are coming at the rate|. of three to five thousand a day. Massachusetts is taking time by the forelock. The example it is setting might well be followed by others. The longer the delay the more difficult will be the task and when such educational efforts are launched they should be o directed as to be properly brought to the attention of those intended. Hav- ing experienced the need of American- ization work there should be no delay in striving for its benefit. 2 WHAT CARE WOULD PREVENT. No one can ever tell just hew much good ever results from the presentation o: figures showing the great losses that occur and what great reductions could be made therein by the exercise of a due amount of, care, but it cannot fail to mwake its appeal even though the results are intangible. It is by the repeated presentation of such facts that in- creased thought is given to important matters which might not otherwise get much consideration. Almost every day there are deaths, about which we know or read, which cannot fail to be regarded as needless. We are horrified by the many who are killed on the battlefields and yet we fail to give consideration to the still greater number of deaths which might have been prevented in the same time had there been a due exercise of care. This is well illustrated by the figures given at 8 conference of underwriters of health and accident insurance Wwhich showed that while 31,000 of our boys were Kkill- ed in battle during the war in Europe there were 126,000 Americans who died from accidents in the same period. ‘When it is realized that there are 10,- 000 persons killed accidenfally every vear it can be appreciated that there is good and sufficient reason for giving heed to the many ways in which such aecidents can be avoided. Much to a large de- gree rests with the individual involved, wWhils there are plenty of instances where due regard for the safety of the other tfellow would ~ greatly, curtail fa- talities. Human life is too preclous to be wast- ed in any such manner. Carelessness and the disposition to take chanees not warranted by the purpose invelved are largely ‘responsible for many of the un- timely deaths. That accidents will hap- pen is perfectly well understood but the inclination to create a hazard in order to overcome it accounts for too large a proportion of the accidental deaths. Px- amples which should teach their own lessons are numberless and experience shows that it required an everlasting hammering at heedless acts to keep the needlss deaths as low as they are. HARDING ON BUSINESS AID. In keeping with his policy of dealing with matters which are of much concern to the country, Senator Harding on Sat- urday in speaking to a large delegation of business men who had’ assemibled at Parion plainly set forth some of tha remedies which he advocates for deal- inglwith the ills 6f the presetit time, and in a manner which canngt fail te carry conviction, That the government must play am important part in the reconstruction that is necessitated today is fully ree- ogtized, and Senator Harding showed his grasp of the situation and his keen ingight into the nee¢ds wheémt he urged as the meafs of bettering business condi- tions, the wiping out of executive orders and laws which service only to comfusé and darken, the readfusting of the tariff, the readjusting of 'internmal taxation espécially the excess profits tax, thé end- ing of bureaucratic rule and futilé ex- perimenting, the establishing of closer cooperation between thé government and business by protéeting business at home and upbullding it abroad, the building up of the merchant marire, the inaugn- rating of a national budget, the rester- ing of the postal service to an efficiency basis, the extending of the merit sys- tem in the cholée and promotion of fed- eral employes, the lopping off of useless jobs while rewarding efficiency, the eli- mifating of department duplication and group functions now scattered and the consultation of experts for administra- tive Improvément. How great the need is for putting into effect just such a programme Is fully recognized by the business men and others throughout the country. His pol- fcy in that respect appealed to his hear- ers as well it might for it indicatés his purpese to tackle vital problems and deal with them in a way which has long been needed. EDITGRIAL NOTES. The man on the corner says: The fel- low slinging mud is the one who gets his hands dirty. Now that D'Annunzio has declared its independence what does he propdse to do with Fiume? A jail sentence for passing a stand- ing trolley car is tough but how easily it could have been avoided. A young woman has left London for a trip daround the world bareheaded. A dollar to a doughnut she has her ears rovered. This is the week oi the special session of the general assembly, the third since the Civil war. The state tickét nomimated by the re- publicans should do much to roll up & bigger republican majority than ever in November. Governor Cox has indulged in such talk as to convince the hitherto unde- cided that he is not the man for the presidency. The ears of many more than the ae- tive politicians throughout the country will be tuned to get thé news of the state election in Maide today. Of course the fact that stills and home brew were not exhibited at the county fair doesn’t mean that none are possessed or produced in the county. The legacy inherited by the present city administration in the way of bad streets was discouraging but the street department is making good progress in getting rid of it, The chairman of the democratic na- tional finance committee says of their ftund ‘“Why not get all we can and calt that the minimum?’ And yet Mr. Cox Is hellering about quotas. ‘When the president refuses to recom- mene the coal commission to consider a new award he properly called attention to the fact that a contract is a contract mumber reaching New York being so large as to make it impossible for the officials to handle their cases expedit- jously as eight vessels waiting to dis- §8 dealing with the alleng, and this is . 4of pourse trme in all the states.

For the street the dull sur- faced materials wijl be smart, Dblack being worn extensively in Paris. Grecian girdles of colored chenille cords abound on light silk gowns, while the bouffant is supplied by hip puffings made of knotted cords or fringes.
