To attempt the permanent destruction of trade: unionism in the mining industry would be criminal miners, The improved conditions of that Industry by which the employers are profiting have been brought about by the very unionism against which they are fighting, and which now represents a principle which is indestructible. If a victory of the operators in this labor war is to mean a victory over trades unionism ft will be a victory more costly than a defeat, An Astomobilist’s Error.—A rash automobdilist disputed the right of way with an embankment In Rye and his bankment (differs from a pedestrian.

Florence Bennett, a girl of six, was run over by one of Riley's ash carts. The Judgment secured ts the largest ever given in Kings County for a child's life. Do not these jury box decisions reflect enlightened public opinion {n the matter? The old disposition to doal lentently In case of accidents due to negligence is passing away. In {ts place ts a firm purpose to fix the responsibility and hold the offender, whether corpo- vation or private citizen, to a strioter accountability, And the change is for the better, Gur OMfcin!

It {s not as bad as the Prince Henry weather, and, according to the cables, not as bad as the prevalent weather in Paris. * A LANDMARK IN JOURNALISM, The photographs trom St. Pierre reproduced in the morning and evening editions of The World tell the story of the disaster as no words could tell it, but they do something more. They tell a story of progress in journalism and of re- sults achieved which would have sounded simply tn- credible if predicted twenty years ago. They mark the consummation and rewani of years of effort, of enter- Prise, of outlay, of improvement, whereby the everyday reader who pays a cent for his dally paper gets such a story of the times as could be had formerly only in a costly volume. ‘The World's series of St. Pierre pictures mark a d tnotive epoch in the development and history of the Rewepaper and in ftu increase of value to its readers and to all the world.

What is the city going to do about the smoke nuls- ance?’ Commissioner of Health Lederle announces that he proposes to enforce the law, This ts right, should be allowed to make the coal strike ; maintaining an illegal nuisance. But what are we going to do when hard coal rises to prices which are prohibitive to certain industries, and What are we going to do when the supply of hard coal gives out altogether?

An examination of the statistics of Iron and steel produc- tion publiched by the American Iron and Steel Association discloses the fact that even with a very great recent increase the consumption of steel in the dullding trade ‘has not yet grown to sufliciently large dimensions to make this a very prominent meter in the steel trade, eays the Iron Age, Ac- cording to the most recent figures published, the tote! pro- duction of all kinds of steel was 10,188,929 gross tons In 190, ‘The production in the sume year of all kinds of iron and steel structural shapes wes 515,16L tons, It will therefore be seen hat less than one-tenth of the steel production found its way to une tnarket jn the form of material for building purposes, It must further be borne in mind that out of thts produc- Uon of structural shapes a considerable portion was diverted to the bridge works, as well as to manufacturing establleh- ments using structural shapes for a variety of purposes. It is believed uhat about one-half of the production of such shapes was used by the bullders of steel bridges and for miscellaneous purposes, A great many shapes are worked up for car trucks and other railroad suppiles, and a very considerable tonnage goes into cranes, crane runways end other uses Which are unnecessary to be enumerated. Even if tho portion of the production of struotural shapes devoted to other purposes than buildings was only one-fourth of the total quantity {t would still leave the consumption for buil4- {ng purposes not much in excess of 500,000 tons, or about one- twentieth of the entire production of steel. OUR CROWDS AND OTHERS. One cannot but be impressed by the reply made by the German Prince who lately visited us to one who asked ‘him what ‘had most deeply impressed ‘him during his Amerloan tour, and the enswered that it was "the great, omoerly and cheenful crowd: - In this reply the Prince emphasiaed at once his own keen Intelligence and the great central and vital fact that distin- gulshes America from Europe, says the Chicago Chronicle. French crowds are in @ sense gay, but they are not cheer- fui and they have often shown how swiftly thelr surface wayety may be transformed Into grotenque savagery. The American is capable of mobs, but ae a rule there must be substantial cause. Amerioan crowds collect readily, ‘They Ave not gay nor sullen-only eager, Interested, cheerful, and when the cause for collecting passes they dissolve as readily, ‘The Wuropean crowd ia orderly only because it focls that it must be. The Amerioan ts orderly because he wishes to be, and under all is the deep, abiding consciousness of personal liberty and the no less deep consciousness of individual eponalbility, In Burope to preserve order is the business of the Goy- ernors, Here it ts the business and the Interest of ail alike: That is the heart of the whole difference and the lesson is ing slowly learned by European Governors and go alike. not ibly pains tngm badly.
