FOOTBALL'S RENAISSANCE "QJPOR'IIN'G this fall E.tiab" mean something For two jeai.s the battlefield suiipi seded the gridnon. Ihisob.iII lathei mi raculously wcathoicit the blight of woild strife, but a hiatus in football annals was inowtablc. The geueial staffs in every nation called for youth. It was in the last anal.x sis "youth that won the war." Pigskin battle:, by college lads could not be contemporaneously waged. The piesent rewval of inteiest in grid iron combats is a most icassuring index of the return of peace. Even the finalitv of a presidential proclamation will hardly be amore comincing pi oof that the lat ter business is oei than is Jhe stimu lating lenaissance of healthy athletic "rivalry among the univeisities. Naturally, m a new woild theie must be new sensations in football. One of the most conspicuous of them is the sud- j den dominance of Colgate, which lejoices in a team of major caliber.

A CONTRAST "TVjELEGATES fiom every countiy in "- the world sitting in at the irftei na tional laboi conference at Washington i rcpiesent the enlightened labor opinion of the world. They know what is what I in economics and in the laws of indus- ! trial progiession.

A univeisal eight-houi day rcpicsents to them a lational goal that ought to content everybody, keen the world going In comfort and benefit humanity at laigc. It is interesting to contiast their be liefs with the demands of the striking soft-coal men. AT THE PENITENTIARY TF ALL the high aims and hard work - of prison ieformer have seived only to inspire arrogance and hypeiciiticism In felons, then millions of well-intentioned people will feel that they are hopelessly astiay amid conflicting theories in a contrary woild. Yet something veiy much like a failuie of the newer methods of lcaling with jails and the jailed is apparent at the Eastern Penitential y, which is to be investigated largely be cause of the upioai created by the in mates. In the caily yeais of his admimstia- tion Wat den McKcnty was blamed for too much kindnes.s. Hp reorganized the penitentiary, remo.ved many of the harsh restraints of an eailier period and en deavored to revive the confidence and latent good in his charges by giving them a syBtem of self-government.

WHAT IS WELL BEGUN IS ONLY HALF DONE The Work Started at the Primaries in September Must Be Finished Tomorrow WHETHER the Republicans uho voted at the primaries for the nom ination of men who would give the new chatter n fair test and enforce its pio-vi-dons in aecoi dance with their purposo hae any staying power will be demon stiated tomouow. The election of Congiessman Mooic to the mayoialty i in no doubt. He is the icgular Republican nominee. He won the nomination after a fair fight in the open pitmniips and he was ielretcd by a majoiity oT the Republican voters. The officials of the tegular Republican or ganization who in the primal ie did what thev could to nominate another man have ' accepted his candidacy. No other course was open to them unless they wanted to be bianded as irregular. The light was cariied on within the paity, and the voters decided that they wanted a different leadership. It is of the e-sence of regulaiity t6 accept the veidict and follow the piocession. The men who did not want Mr. Mooie to be Mnyoi .ne piaclical politicians. They know that they will get mote out of him b doing everything possible to make his majoiity unpiecedentcd than b sulking in their tents and foifriting the right to (oiiMilciatinn by him when be hand out the plums. And Mi. Mooie is ;i piaetic.il politician, lie has let it be known that those who woik fm bun will lereivc jimpci rtin iitli'1 niton Mini thai those who work against bun openly ot in sect el will have only themselves, to thank if they arc ignored for the next four ycais. Unless vvc mistake the workings of the mind of the average organization poli tician, ev pry one of them who opposed Mr. Moore in the primal ies will do his best to clean his skiits of suspicion tomorrow by getting out his followeis and in structing them to vote for the legular ticket. This i- why the election of Mr. Mooie b a big majoiity is eeitain, and this is why no one takes seriously the candidacy of Mi. MacLaughlin. of the Chaiter part, a paity delibeiately named to deceive the unwary and trick him into defeating the very thing for which he voted at the ptimaiics. The election of Ml. Mooie, however, will not be enough to insure piopcr ic spect for the new chartei. It is neces sary that a majoiity of the Council shall be in sympathy with the chaiter and with Mr. Moore if vvc arc to escape an orgv of factionalism. Eleven councilmen floyal to Mr. Moore vveie nominated at the mimaues and ten were nominated who aie foil owe is of leadeis who did their best to pi event the nomination of the congiessman. This majority of one Is so nauow that theie has been constant rumor that an effort would be made in one or more distiicts to defeat one of the Moore can didates by a deal w ith some form of the opposition."1 This deal cannot succeed if the voteis vvno nominated me .woore can didates go to the polls tomotiow and complete the woik which they stattcd in September. The men who aie tiing to put the deal acioss know tltal they ate taking gieat risks. They might be able to suc ceed, but if they do the pi ice of their success will be so heavy that they would be likely to icgiet their baigain. Mr. Mooie is not a political innocent. Getting political favois from him will not be like taking candy fiom a baby. He has the appointment of the heads of the departments, who have a laigp amount of patronage at their disposal. The depaitmeut heads will be fust of all loyal Mooie men prepaied to play the game with him. The men suspected of wishing to stab the Mooie councilmanic ticket in the back aie likely to 'consider the situation seii ously befoie they commit themselves ir levocably to a losing game. They know that theie ate at least two of the leaders who worked for the nomination of Judge Patterson who vveie warm friends of Mooie before the primaries and who have philosophically accepted defeat and have i renewed their lelations with -Mr. iMoore. i They know that four councilmen will be j elected from the districts in which these ' two leaders are powerful and that even ! if an anti-Mooie councilman could be i elected over one of the Moore supportcis i it would still be within the power of the ' Mayor to make a combination with the i councilmen backed by his two friends and laugh at the petty tncksteis who think that it would be small to put their plans acioss. Because it is evident to all who con- I sider the mattci that it will pay the defeated faction of the party to be loyal to the -whole ticket it is confidently ex pected that the whole .ticket will be elected by sufficient majorities. The Charter paity ticket has been nominated, as alieady indicated, to trick the unwary voters into supporting n ticket and a program in which they do not believe, and to attract the support of the irreconcilable legulars who are disgiuntled because of their defeatat the primaries It is not likely to draw any moie votes than such a contemptible policy deserves. The Democratic candidate for the mayoralty ought to leceive thp support of every Democrat, not because there is any possibility of electing him, but in older to solidify the opposition party. This city and this state nave suffered for years because there has been no adequate opposition to the Republican pally. The leaders have done as they pleased, as they knew that their tickets would be elected anyway. There was no one to call them to account. We need a Demociatic paity as a wholesome threat to keep the Republicans in order. Tlito is true in snif-A nf the Riieepss of Nhe party in this city in doing something towjjed cleansing itscjif Horn within tins Ml. Iiut we have enduied abuses Xor TOVl-aNTlta PUBLIC! LEDGER - - years until the rapk and file of the party was aroused in sufficient numbers lo asset t themselves and Remand a now leadciship. If we had had a proper op position the party -would have cleansed itself long ago. But it remains to be seen whether these who took up the bioom at the primaries have staying power enough to complete the work tomorrow vvhicli they began so well when Mr. Mooie and n friendly ma jority in the Council were nominated Hgainst the opposition of those who sought tj preserve the old order. A WAY OUT NLY by a piompt letutn to work and the abandonment of their warlikc'at titude can the coal men emcige safely fiom the present ctisis and icsloio any semblance of validity to their cause. 'I heir leaders aie in a way to do iuep arablc haim to all tiades unions, They have invited the suspicion and the ill will of the country not only for them selves, but for the movement which they misrepresent. It is for that reason that cxtraotdinary responsibilities now lest with the more conservative labor leaders who have managed to keep their heads in these days of fiantic opportunism and reckless agitation. If organizations like the railway brotherhoods have retained their usual shrewdness and good sense they will in tenvene at once to counsel n reversal of policy among the miners and the sort of patience and tolerance that all people have had to cultivate in these unsettled times. This conviction will occur natu rally to any one who has a lational con cern for oiganized labor and faith in its legitimate pmpocs. There is onlv one question beftne the labor men of thr countiy. They must decide whether they aic lo bp loyal, to thr countiy oi to Ihcii oigantzalions. Foi this i.s the government's fight, en tcird into after all peaceful methods had failed to aveil the tin cat of calamity. The government is not in the habit of fighting for unjust principles and thcic forc it can never lose. The merits of the miners' case arc aside. Their claims are now ancient his tory. The stiike is for something else altogethei. The people, outraged by the demands and the methods of the coal unions, should not be further prejudiced against a movement that involves mil lions of leasonablp and loyal citiVens. The mote conservative unions owe it to themselves to in go or compel the miners to do what they should have done in the beginning to go to work, to share some of the stresses that arc common to all people at the moment, to inform public opinion intelligently of their troubles and to be content with decisions tendered dis- passionately and fairly. Violence and elaboiate gestuies of belligerent sclf intcrrsl will gpl the strikers nowhere. The time for that soit of thing is past. The world is sick of it.

Thus "Woman as a faim laboier in peace times ' is inter woven with the question of "IYniale edu cation in niral districts." Then theie are "Rural social problems after the war"; and, what perhaps is more to the point, "What the farmer demands of agiicultutal education."
