HE views of ex-President Taft as to the dangerous activities of the American Federation of Labor will be hailed with warm approval by some classes of employers and equally ted by certain classes of organized labor. We believe, however, that the influence exerted by Mr. Gompers his lieutenants is much less than Mr. Taft thinks. ‘The theory that there should exist in this country a great organ- n of millions directed by a central council which can and does onize other interests entitled to equal rights is contrary to the of true Americanism. If this organization were actually as otive as Mr. Taft alleges the danger would be apparent and would dealt with. But the American Federation of Labor has not the power that | ds and foes attribute to it. We have had no better sign of its tations than its inability to come to the aid of the Danbury We incline to think that the Federation failed to pay the! fine, not from unwillingness, but because it could not collect wherewithal. If the organization were as strong as Mr. Taft it is, it could readily have found the money. Local labor unions sometimes collect assessments for brief pe- But the barden is soon felt and soon resented—the more so contributors are seldom able to secute a satisfactory account- As a matter of fact, the International Printing Pressmen’s is just now badly disrupted because of the inability of its mém- to comprehend its finances. With a little thought employers would see that in many instances themselves preserve the potentiality of not a few national labor nizations through contracts that enable the organization to con- an establishment with the backing of the employer. Without a jis support from employers the organizations would soon go to pieces of their own weight. For it is exceedingly difficult to legislate for ly differing local conditions and to lay down rules to which all will bow. As to the fear expressed by Mr. Taft that legislators are unduly reed by labor lobbies and by the lebor vote in the background, it is to find in our political history any instance where the so-called vote” has manifested itself eave sporadically. And even in cases it has usually proved ineffective. ‘The man who depends on the labor vote invites the same fate would befall him were he to rely on the Baptists, the Methodists the Christian Scientists to pull him through. ‘ matinee ppmeeneree . THE SOONER THE BETTER. FURTHER proof were needed that the American public can _ wait for facts before giving way to its feelings, the perfect calm with which the Nebraskan incident is discussed supplies it. | |» Obviously there could hardly be » worse moment for anything d to befall a ship flying the American flag in the neighbor-| Yet the country has shown entire! t to believe that the Nebraskan hit a mine until evidence to contrary is forthcoming. The occurrence should, however, suggest to the German Govern- it how desirable is the quickest possible expression of its policy purpose as regards this nation’s ships and traveller. It will be weeks next Monday since the President’s note waa placed in the of the German Foreign Office. Even allowing for the distract- ag circumstance of Italy’s line-up with tho allies, Berlin has had time ‘te frame a reply to Washington. , Before any more explosives rip holes in American vessels in the zone” it is in all ways better that we !wcome familiar with Ger- y's formally avowed intentions. ee RBAROUS PRACTICE ON OPEN CARS.

HA'T a growing national sentiment may be developed anf tm culcated, a resolution has been adopted by the Forty-thind National Encampment of the Grand Army of the Republié indorsing a plan to place the name “Lincoln” upon one public building in every hamlet, town and city under the American flag, They advocate “that this name may always be locally identified with public education and affection for the National Union.” : This patriotic designation and local honor proves to inspire grow- ing approval; and now in many places may be seen the public school | building bearing the words, “Lincoln School.” ; Battle-scarred survivors of the Union armies accept Abratiam Lincoln, many of them having served under him, as something more | than a great public character. They should be given all co-operation. | With the passing of time Lincoln has loomed larger and larger in history, and in the hearts of a free people, until he stands as the dom- inant figure of Americanism. | ‘There is no better inspiration for the future citizen than to have ‘him confronted with the name “Lincoln” and all that it implies, at least during his school-going period, when impressions mould his later life.

Plots of Immortal Fiction Masterpieces B Copyright, 1918, by The Prew Publishing Co, (The New York Evening World) No. 6—THE SUBSTITUTE; by Francois Coppee. | 1 was a child of the Paris gutter, Jean Francois Leture by name. At ten he-was arrested for vagrancy and was sent to @ reforma tory which served him as an excellent preparatory school for a criminal’s life. For one petty fault after another, for one {nnocent blunder after an- other, he was sent back to jail again and aga!n, before h d a chance to know what freedom meant. At last, as a dangerous malefactor, he wore @ ball and chain at the grim Toulon Prison hulks. When he succeeded in getting away from Toulon he dodged the police and went back to Paris. There he drifted aimlessly, waiting for new chances at crime and for new punishment. And one day he wandered by chance into @ mission church. There, listening idly, his attention was caught by the preacher's fervid plea to his hearers to lead better lives. Leturc heard and he took the words to heart. They had a strange effect on him, He had never had @ chance. The world and the law had always been against him, He was not a criminal by nature, but by cireumstance. No one had ever spoken in hts hearing as this preacher spoke, And he took a mighty resolve to live honestly and to make a man of himeeif, At once Leturc set out on his road to reform, Keeping away from his old comrades, he sought work. He got a job at last under a master mason. The hours were ‘tong, the work rackingly hard, the pay was absurdly small, But the first time in his life Leturc wag content, He free, he was honest, he was elf-respecting. The white dust that covered him, the heavy beard he grew, the workman's blouse—all served as sufficient disgujse to keep his old enemies, the police, from recog- nizing him, 1 ‘An Innocent-faced country lad named Savinien worged in the same gang with him and the taciturn Leturc’s heart warmed at the boy's innocence, He vowed to do his best to keep Savinien from falling into the temptations of the city and to keep him straight, The two became dear friends, It was the first friendship of Leturc’s dreary life. Their few leisure hours were spent together in long walks or in going on cheap Sunday outings to the country, ‘They and a grouchy old miser from Auvergne shared a garret room in a workmen's lodging house. Their room and the food were wretchedly bad, yet his new-found self-respect and his fatherly love for Savinien made Leture eu- premely happy. His happiness clouded a little, after a time, as Savinien grew more used to the ways of Paris and began to resent Leturc’s kindly advice. The boy craved excitement and dissipation. He spent less and less time with his old friend, One day Leturc came home to his gurret room from the mason find the old Auvergne miser talking excitedly to the landlord, Some one bad stolen three hoarded gold coins from the miser’s trunk, He and the lodging house keeper had just searched the two other roommates’ effects and found the stolen money in Savinien's trunk. Instantly Leturo broke in éb their folk, exclaiming: “I took the money. I put it in Savinien’s trunk because! thought noone would think of looking for it there, I confess because I'm only a thief, not a fend for the police if you like.” the landlord hustled off for the nearest policeman Leture heard Bay- step on the stairs, Running out to meet the lad, he told him what ae had done, When Savinien enivelled a weak protest Leture laughed roughly | orn A_sonvict’s | Reform, ra to “The elder brother goes to war ao that the younger can stay at home. { stitute, that's all.
