The New England and Middle States have always understood this, and their power in the Government is due to their keeping men in Congress. The States of ‘the Upper Mississippi Valley have learned now, and all keep seasoned and cxperienced men in their service in Congress and are greatly profited in their relations to public business that policy. The Southern | States from the beginning pursued that policy and by it secured 2 power in the Government that was not justified by their populasion or their progress.

The gravity of the emer- gency seems to be further emphasized by enlisting in | the same work the Mayor of San Francisco, who im- | mediately after signing the racetrack ordinance car- | ried that qualification over to the assistance of Mr. Hearst, and, deserting the local campaign and turn- ing his back on iriend and joe, took the wings of the morning and a return ticket and flew to the | side of the tenderloin candidate. | | | 1 All this is encouraging to the moral reformers. It | looks as though there is a glimmer of hope that the scarlet sins of that district have faded, in spots, and that reliance on broken law, on dive and den, on feculent vice and torrid wickedness, for political success and honors has become less sure. If this is not so: if Hearst is not in danger; if the drool of the tenderloin ryn as wusual; if life | is just as unsafe and virtue as unknown there as be- fore, and therefore Mr. Hearst as sure of election as Devery was of carrying the primary, why do these | champions lcave their tickets and their friends in the | furch here to make 3 holiday circuit of that seething i pit of corruption, over which buzzards fly in haste lest it takes away their appetite for carrion? The oratorical literature of the California cam- paign furnished by ex-Governor Budd himself, and | by others who have been inspired by the refreshment of_his presence on the stump, is full of impassioned statements to the effect that the temporal and eter- nal interests of man and bird and beast, and of the fishes in the sea, are at stake in the success of the ticket which William Randolph Hearst refuses to sup- port in California. He denounced in advance of his nomination the Democratic candidate far Governor in this State. His personal organ, the Examiner, re- fused to support Lane, and supports no straight nominee on the Democratic ticket. It exhausted the possibilities of typography in welting Lane from his bald head to his bald heel, and since his nomination has left him standing and suffering in the stocks and pillory where,it put him. Judged by his own stan- dard of party allegiance, Mr. Hearst is a traitor to the Democratic party of California. Then why should Budd bloom in the tenderloin and be fragrant for the sake of Willizm Randolph Hearst? 1ject. ceeded in bringing the great coal strike to an end and in preparing the way for an immediate resumption of work. In dccomplishing his task he had ng other authority than that given him by the support of a resolute public opinion. He had no legal resource to enforce his will upon either side. His success is due to moral influence only, and is another proof of what can be achieved ‘in this country by an patriotic Jeader whom the people trust and whom they are willing to sustain in all his efforts for the public good. That the personal character of the President %was the dominant factor in breaking the seemingly irre- frangible deadlock is made evident at évery step of the negotiations. that led to the settlement. The miners submitted Meir case to the President saying, “We propose that the issue culminating in this strike shall be refefred to you and a tribunal of your . own sclection and agree to accept your award upon all or any of the questions involved.” Later on the operators submitted a similar proposal, saying, “We ! suggest a commissfon to be appointed by the Presi- dent of the United States, to whom shail be sub- mitted all questions at issue between the respective companies and their cwn employes, whether they be- long to a union or not, and the decision of this com- mission- shall be accepted by us.” 3 Thus the fairness of the President achieved its ob- He had the confidence of both sides. strong, resolute, impartial personality brought order out of confusion, and the strike has been settled. The achievement is one of which the greatest and most beloved of our Presidents might have been proud, and is to be accounted among the highest ser- vices which Roosevelt has rendered the republic. To those sections of the Union that are dependent upon the anthracite mines for their main, supply of fuel the settlement of the strike will be welcome chiefly for the effect it will have in reopening the iines. To the country at large, however, the issue is even greater than’that of an immediate supply of anthracite. Around the contending miners and oper- ators there had gathered a great host of mischicf- makers istent on reaping a profit out oi.the quar- rel. Reckless demagogues and venal newspapers have for weeks been doing all in their power to foment trouble in the mining districts. Could they have brought about an open conflict between the strikers and the law they would have rejoiced mightily, no matter how many deaths may have resulted from the strife, or what disasters it may have led to. These newspapers and agitators: increased in the audacity of their violent and inflammatory appeals with - the 4 - able and | His | Iprogress of the strike, and it has been evident Tor some time past that unless the controversy were set- tled before actual suffering took place the conse- quences might be all that the yellow journals desired. Fortunately all fears of danger from those sources are now over. The miners and operators have listened to the President instead of to the insensate harangues of politicians seeking votes and disreputable journals secking mischief. Firmly relying upon the integrity and impartiality of the President, each side has sub- mitted its cause to him, and he has appointed a board of arbitrators fully worthy of the issue. It will take some time for the board to investigate all the points of difference between the two sides, but in the meantime work will be resumed and once more the much needed supply of coal will go forward to the markets. . It is to be borne in mind amid the general rejoicing that while the future is full of promise some of the cvils of the strike will continue to affect the people of the East and are beyond remedy. The wages lost during the weeks of idleness can never be earned. The moncy paid out for coal at a high price represents | just so much loss to the wealth of the country, and moreover, despite the alacrity with which the miners | will set abotit their work again, it will be impossible | for them to furnish the normal supply of anthracite to the public before the severe Eastern winter sets in. The recognition of these surviving evils will help the people to draw once miore the moral of the bad effects of cven best regulated and most justly settled strikes. They are costly ‘ventures at best, and the worst of it is. as Mr. Mitchell himself has pointed cut, their heaviest burdens and most grievous hard- ships fall upon the poor. E ; The scientists who are predicting that the time is coming when another glacial epoch will be upon us and the entire Unitad States be frozen up are evi- dently inclined to believe that Democracy will have its day after a time and the political cold wave will come to stay. ! ‘ to the voters of California that in this elec tion it can hardly be necessary for him to make anything of a campaign in the way of present- ing himself or his record to the people. All that will be required of him is that he go about the State to | ! shake hands with his constituents and remind them | that he is willing to continue in their service. A native son of California, Mr. Colgan began his career by undertaking the arduous work of a black- { smith, and is one of the men risen from the ranks | whom the people delight to regard as typically Amer- | ican. From the first his career has been upward. | He has faithfully periormed every duty intrusted to him. His neighbors in Sonoma County soon learned | to know him as a man who can be cdunted on. and I when he entered upon the wider field of State politics | he was not long in gaining an equal confidence in the 'general public. Elected to the office of Controller in 1890, he made such a record for himself during his first term that | the people have retained him in that position ever since. His qualifications for the office are of the ! highest order and his fidelity and industry are beyond question. He has carefully guarded every. imterest of the State intrusted to his charge, and has been largely instrumental “in promoting the welfare of the commonwealth and the general good of the people. In his present campdign Contfoller Colgan’s plat- form is not only a platform of Republicanism but that of his own record in oifice. It is a record that can safely challenge scrutiny and defy criticism. He goes | CONTKOLLER COLGAN. p ONTROLLER COLGAN is so well known before the people, therefore, with a double claim upon | reason why the voters of the State should not attest | their faith in protection and sound money by electing every Republican candidate in the field and making a | clean sweep to emphasize their condemnation of free trade and demagogy. Neither is there any reason ! why they should set aside a tried and faithful public | servant for the mere sake of making a change. The re-election of Controller Colgan may therefore” be looked upon as assured, but the people should make his majority large enough to attest California’s ap- preciation of his merit as a man and an official. o o v STRATFORD A SIDESHOW. ROM the old romantic town of Stratford-on- F Avon comes 2 loud voice of lamentation and a cry for some power to save her from her friends. ! | Stratiord suffers because the tourist world has devel- | oped an excessive and ill-digested admiration for | Shakespeare. The crowds of sightseers that pour in upon the town has generated in the town itself a horde of guides.and relic and souvenir sellers, who are a nuisance; and, moreover, the majority of the sightseers are also a nuisance. These guides and | relic sellers on the one hand and their curious patrons | | on the other are turning the town into a huge side- | show and making the venerable old church where the | poet’s body rests something like a public booth to | which foiks go to bz amused for sixpence a head. | A society in London has been started to save the church at least from what is called a desecration. | There is nothing strange about that, for in London ! there is a society for every movement and every fad. Drop a new suggesiion down the London slot and you will get a society instanter. This Stratiord Preservation Society appears, however, to have a really good object in view. A report from London says a “shop” has been established in the lobby of the church to sell photographs and other memorials of the place and of the poet, and adds: “The abuse of the church has been described as ‘almost a na- tional scanflal.’” A fixed fee is charged for admission, i and as is patural under the circumstances the visitors,” led to regard the place as a show, treat it in this way, and talk, laugh, take photographs and eat sandwiches in the building without protest from the authorities.” The evil of course is one of the inevitable results of popularity. The tourist crowds have always lots | of money to spend, and consequently the natives of the town are eager to provide them with a means of spending it. If men and women are willing to pay a fee for\perm,ission to go into a church to see a particular tomb the temptation to the custodian | to make'them pay is well nigh irresistible. The sug- gestion is made in London that the church authori- ties stop all sacred services, hand over the building to the Government as a national memarial, and then build for themselves a new parish church, which will be treated" with the reverence and respect which is now given to all English parish churches, Stratford- on-Avon excepted.” ] e —— Impartial observers of New York politics say that | in nominating Bird S.

Bunker, at the an-| nual session of the advisory board of the Philadelphia Commercial Museum, held at Philadelphia during the early part of this month: Two representatives of the sound country were also present, but were not accorded a hearing. The subject of Bunker’s address was “The Pacific Cdast as the Fiking Factor in Our Asiatic Trade Problem.” ¥ In addition to his theories of commerce with the Orient, derived from his recent trip through Siberia and the Far East on business connected with the Chamber of Commerce, Bunker presented an impos- ing array of statistics which show the | likelihood of an immense increase in trade through San Francisco -with the peoples of that side of the world. The annual im- | ports of Europe aggregate $3,000,000,000, of which this country furnishes 15 per cent. The annual imports of Asia and Oceanica are of the value of $1,200,000,000, of which Americans supply but 10 per cent. Commercial men of the United States are said to be firmly intrenched in Euro- pean markets and expansion of trade with the Orient is declared to be for the best interests of future prosperity. Bunker maintains that our favoring proximity should simplify the task. The difference in distance between China and San Fran- cisco and between European ports and China amounts to many thcusands of miles. The ®plomacy of Russia and England and the Trans-Siberian Railway are said to count against Americans, but the lat- ter are declared to possess the individual initiative which the former lack. Fuel oil is said to be an important facter in the problem and one which is to the advan- tage of the commercial men of this coun- try. Bunker states that the way is clear for | active operations and that there should be no delay in increasing the scope of trale with the Far East on .account of the prospective construction of the isth- mian canal.
