When did the eiglit-hour movement mean anything else?~New York World. The New York World is the leading and most powerful democratic organ in the country, all the others in their pleas for democratic policies and championship - of democratic candidates being merely followers: and imitators. In this brief paragraph the World gives the whole case away as President Wilson has attempted to make it in justification of the Adamson force bill. “Every ‘intelligent man know says the World, “that the eight-hour principle has no meaning except nine or ten hours’ pay.for eight hours’ work,” and' it adds, “When did the eight- hour movement mean anything else?” Then the president is wrong when he pretends that ‘this is a question of reducing the work day for “every intelligent " man knows” now that the law does not purport to cut the working day of any train man by an hour or a minute, but merely to start his overtime pay at the end of the eighth hour. Then the president is likewise wrong when he says the question involved is not arbitrable, for “every intelligent man knows” that the matter of wages—whether nine or ten hours’ pay shall be given for eight hours’ work—can be and is regu- larly determined. by arbitration. g If the wage increase law has no meaning, as the World frankly admits, except ten hours’ pay for eight hours’ work, then the president’s justi- fication of his action in forcing the bill through congress without investigation or deliberate dis- cussion while the labor iJeaders held the. stop watch, falls completely. to ‘the ground. . S— .. Greece at Last a Belligerent. Greece will formally enter the war, after hay- ing been informally and unwillingly a participant for longer than a year. This was inevitable from the time Bulgaria cast its lot with the Teutonic allies and assisted in putting Serbia to the sword, The situation then developed left Greece but lit- tle choice. Cynical observers have suggested that King Constantine, in his efforts to maintain neutrality, was actuated more by family reasons than humanitarian motives. The king did suc- ceed, though, in holding in check those of his subjects who were eager to enter the war, and has played a pretty but losing game of politics with Venizelos. Declaring war on Bulgaria, with Macedonia as a Pretext, ‘will serve all the pur- poses of the Entente Allies, may preserve the king's standing in both Athens and Berlin, and will get the Greeks as. deeply into the trenches’ as if the entire outside world were included in the proclamation. The Scandinavians, Dutch and Spanish are now the only European nations who are not engaged in the great war. If they are permitted to remain out it will be one of the further wonders of the affair, S— \ Hughes Talks to the Workers. . Mr. Hughes has been going directly among the workers of the ¢ountry, to personally carry his message of hope and good. counsel to them. This week he has spent in great factory centers, where he has talked to men in overalls, present- ing his views of présent-day .problems in easily doctrine, the men who work in the big iron mills are especially concerned in. These men well know what the end of the war may mean to the .industry in which they are engaged. With the free trade ideas of Presidert Wilson, expre in his Baltimore speech to the grain men, in efs | fect, it means lower wages for the workmen, or a shut-down for the employers. i &‘OW the whole labor situation looms the shadow, of. the European war. This great con- flict lifted American industry out of the stagna- tion into which it had been thrust by the Under- wood tariff, but the activity thus fostered cannot be looked on as other than temporary. With the end of the will come conditions against which we miust be pregared. This is well under- stood by the, workingmen of this' country. Not a labor convention has deliberated since the war commenced but has taken some action against the time when the war is ended, and America will-more than ever need protection against Eu- ropedir competition, _ Mr. Hughes presents-the logic of facts and experience. The workmen in should know which direction their interest lies. Their wages and standard of life have been established under republioan: policies, and only o can ‘be mains tained, —— Unfinished Business with Japan. ambassador for Japan is to fenew “conversations' with the secretary of state as to the admission of Japanese to the United States on terms of equal- ity with Europeans. Our immigration and alien land laws have been the subject of Japan's grave disapproval for many years, and a serious dispute was once averted through the Root-Takalira' “gentleman's agreement.” This"did not end the controversy, which involves a point that is rather delicate for approach from our side, The principle involved in our exclusion acts is well supported, and is not in dispute. Japan's objection is to being classed with Chinese and Hindus; the Nipponese set.up to be Caucasian, and claim full share of the rights and courtesies extended to: Caucasians by the United States. The claim brings in thé ethnological aspect of the case, which has so'far gone-against the Japanese, all but their own investigators assigning them a place among the Mongols. Refusal of the en- ergetic little brown men to rest under the decision of outside authorities on the point of racial qual- ification makes it rather awkward for the United States. Our declination to recognize the Jap as a blood brother has been carefully sugar-coated so far, and so does not deter him from pressing his demand. The aspiration of the Japanese to be considered “white folks” is very likely to break on the cold rocks of western prejudice, Qur position on the question should not be a serious obstacle to Japanese national ambition. It is rather a test of racial fitness. Economic as well as social reasons support opposition to free admission of the Japanese coolie, who is scarcely more to be desired than is his Chinese or Indian prototype.

Why Mr. Hughes Should Be Elected William R. Willcox, Chairman Republican National Committee MR. HUGHES, it seems to me, does well to emphasize the importance of the tariff as a potential issue of this compaign. The tariff question has been a vital issue since the foundation of the government, and it must con- tinue to be a political issue so long as we are divided on the best means of raising revenue and upon the question of what, if any, imposition of duties is necessary to protect our labor and in- dustry. Fortunately, we do not have to do any guessing whatever in the matter. We have not only the experience of a century and a quarter under various tariff laws, but we have, to guide us at the present time, a full ten months of expe- rience under the operation of the present Under- wood tariff, Those ten months, before the war, broke out, proved to us that, like every other low tariff in our history, the Underwood law was a_failure from both’ the standpoint of revenue and of in- suring work for the American people., Without sufficient revenue, without sufficient work and without any compensation whatever in a ‘de- crease of the cost of living, the verdict must be pronounced that, from every standpoint, ‘the law was a failure. < But we do not have to stop with the o_Fcranqn of the law during those ten months. There is the absolute result that since the foreign war broke out the present democratic low tariff, in spite. of the fact that all the large producing countries of the earth are at war with each other, has opened our markets to a greatér volume of foreign productions than ever was known before in our history. In the“fast fiscal year our im- orts increased month after month-by record- reaking figures, and if such a volume of foreign wares come in under the conditions of the last two years what, ] ask, may we expect will happen when the war is over? We do. not need 'to estimate' how great a. flood of goods may then come from the nations now at war,. Whatever imports do come from those countries will be in addition to the im- mense volume of goods that even now are com- ing to our markets. When the millions abroad now under arms return to their homes and take up their various trades with eagerness to sell in the one great profitable market of the earth, the United States, what may we expect—and, I may add, dread—as to the result and the effect on our own labor. . When the war ceases and our own laborers 'who are now employed in making munitions are idle, when our mills cannot turn to the produc- tion of domestic wares because our markets are filled with the more cheaply produced foreign fabrications, then we shall get the true measure of just what the Underwood tariff means to the labor and industry of the United States. It is bad enough as it is.. It must be worse when the war is over. How much worse we can only look forward to with anxiety and fear. Foreign nations are now sending us niore than $2.000,- 000,000 worth of goods a year. We may well ex- pect that volume to be greatly increased when the great producing cquntries now at war get to work again and look eagerly t6 our markets as the only ones on earth towhich they can profit- ably send their goods. i If there were any compensation whatever; if we were getting a sufficient amount of reve- nue, together with ordinary internal revenue, to support the government; if our people were ‘buying the necessary articles of shelter, clothing, food and comfort cheaper, then there might be some argument for the free-trader to advance’in favor of opening pur ports freely to foreign pro- ductions. But. nothing is cheaper today. The cost of living s ‘higher than ever and we are well within a: réasonable; estimate when we say that we are losing more than $100,000,000 a year in.revenue. - In 1910, 1911, 1912, 1913 our customs receipts averaged $320,000,000 a year; in the' last two. years they. have averaged $210,000,000.

Times of | poverty and distress, which were growing worse daily, and would have eventually involved the whole country it it had not been for the European war making demands on us which| started all the factories going again and gave plenty of work. | In this campaign the democrats are | continually talking about the great prosperity of the country, but they never acknowledge it is because of the war; their writings and their talks imply that it is because of the demo-| cratic administration. So far as I have seen very little is being said by the republicans to refute their implica- tions, and I wish they would say more | about it, because many people, espe-| clally on the democratic side, have forgotten all about those hard times. You probably rememper, or you could find by referring to your files, how many unemployed armies were marching from city to city in the west, and what trouble they caused the citi- zens in their attempt to feed them and try to keep them moving on, and the fear in the hearts of our officials of what we would do when they reached the Missouri river; the fact of Coxey rising up again and offering to lead another army to Washington, etc. I wish you would refresh our mem- | ories by telling us how many men were marching, and where and what cities they, camped in or by, and what dates. I believe it would be appre- ciatéd by all republicans who realize what the Underwood tariff law would have done to this country if it had | not been for the European war. | B.

O., is reason enough why people do not want osteopaths in gub- lic institutions. Smallpox has been entirely driven out of Germany and Austria by compulsory vacclnation, and anyone who calls himself .a phy- siclan and opposes 'compulsory vac- cination has no place in any public institution, and a medical society that takes up its time with national pro- hibition and woman suffrage has not enough legitimate medical practice to keep busy. What™ possible recom- mendation is it to a doctor to be in favor of prohibition and woman suf- frage, or to be against both? The objection to osteopathy, chiro- practic, Christian- Science and other so-called “scheols of medicine” is that their standard of education is too low. Any farm boy with not even an elghth grade school education can become a doctor in many of these schools by one winter's attendance or two win- ter's attendance, and even through schools of correspondence. There is no educational requirement, A doc- tor deals with people's lives, and they should be protected against ignorance and Incompetency. For that reason every medical school of first-class standing demands a high school edu- cation as an entrance requirement, and we hope the day will soon come when they will require a. university degree before the lives of the people are placed in their hands. uneducated doctor to. correctly diag- nose disease, without which a cure is of course out of the‘ question.

Storyette of the Day. A Socottish farmer was selling wool ome day to a carrier and after weigh- ing it he went into the house to make out an invoice. When he came back he missed a cheese that had been standing on a shelf behind the outer door. Glancing at the bag of wool, he .observed that it had suddenly in- creased in size. “Man,” he sald to the carrier, “T hae clean forgot the weight o' that bag. “Let's pit it on the scales once mair.” The carrier could not well refuse. The bag was, of course, found to be heavier by the weight of the cheese inside. A new invoice was made out and the crestfallen carrier went away. he farmer's wife at once missed thd cheese "and ‘rushing to the yard told her husband that some thief had ; stolen it. “Na, na, Meg," replied the farmer quietly, “I hae just selt the cheese for 2 shillin's the pund.”"—London Tit Bits, This typewriter is not of unknown make.
