Alt BETWEEN England
and tho Dutch clement
In South Africa lias riot
boon declared nor begun.
hence tho hopo of peace has not been
wholly abandoned; but tho trend of cir
cumstances Is manifestly toward war.
The situation In many reRpecta resem
bles that which preceded our recent
lash with Spain. For weeks prior to
the opening of hostilities, while the
conservative element publicly argued
and Unwed for peace, the knowing on?3
Itiletly gut ready for war and that Is
what England is doing now. She has
a number of transports on their way
with soldiers to the theuter of disturb
ance; other troops are being put in
readiness for the summons to march.
Jt Is not the policy of an experienced
campaigner to proclaim warlike inten
tions before the preparations are In
readiness, but things have gone too far
on England's side to permit of any re
cession; on the other hand, the Boers
are fanatical In their obstinacy, and a
pacific solution will be little less than
miraculous.
Concerning the merits of the con
tioveisy there is little to add. Tho
lioeis have the letter of the argument:
the English have the spirit of it. The
Boers are slnceie In their defense of
Independence, but their Independence
would not be in Jeopardy If it had been
eeiclsed liberally and Intelligently.
The widened view of tho last decade of
tiio nineteenth century does not accept
the .theory that nations are free to
practice tyianny with Impunity simply
because they nre nations, not Individ
uals. Tlieie Is developing n humane
Instinct which draws a line of cleav
age between Justice and Injustice with
out respect to local boundaries and
forces the one to battle against the
other In an Irrepressible conflict, tho
confines of which are co-extensive with
the Inhabited portions of the earth. It
is because the Boeis have not shared
In this civilizing Instinct but have
sought to cling to the despotic theories
of the past that they aio today in tho
shadow of the sword of discipline and
correction.
Abusing England as a land-thief does
not icinove the fact that in her main
purposes England represents In this
controversy the voice of tho world's
best conscience. She Is to see that a
decent and a respectable majority shall
nni longer no noutcu and robbed by -i
pig-headed minority cloaking Its plans
of oppression In forms of law. She H
to open to civilization n country partly
closed by antique prejudice and ob
stinacy, and do for the large Interests
of mankind a repugnant but necessary
police service. If mingled with this
high resolve there bo Ignoble motives,
it Is only another way of calling atten
tion to the fact that human nature at
best Is far short of perfection.
An Increase since ISM. of neatly halt
a billion dollars In the volume of cur
rency in circulation in this country ii
one d the phenomena of the times
which stuns the free bllverite Into an
almost audible silence.
Not to Be Trapped.
O" WING TO the squabble of cer
tain labor agitators in Chica
go, which threatens to In
volve tlfe president of tho
United States, it is announced that the
latter may feel compelled to decline
to take part In the ceremonies connect
td with the laying, on October 1, of the
corner stone of the new government
building which is to lie erected In that
city. Inasmuch as this was to have
been an occasion of very widespread
Interest, graced by the presence of
President Diaz, of Mexico, Premier
Laurler, of Canada, and other men of
international renown, it Is desirable
that the facts of the squabbling should
bo made knowji. We offer them up
on the authority of tho Chicago Times
Ilerald, which says:
"When It was decided to erect a now
government building In Chicago there
was tho usual advertising for bids
and the usual award of contracts. A
Maine concern received tho order to
supply the stone and this concern em
ploys non-union labor. A fight was
at once begun by local labor unions to
force the Maine peoplo to discharge
their non-union men and to engago
union men In their places. As tho
Maine contractors were masters of the
situation In their own state It was
Impossible to beat them In a straight
encounter, so the effort was mado to
coerce them Indirectly. Ofllcials of tho
government were Invited with threats
to Intervene In tho controversy and th2
bugaboo of politics was Invoked.
"The government, which had given
out its awards on business pilnclplcs,
was held by Its contracts, and it was
not compatible with Its dignity. Its
honor or Its interests that It should per
mit Itself to bo used as a club by a
party to a private dispute. Legitimate
ly the question was still a question
between tho contractors and tholr em
ployes alone. It was known that the
president had been asked to Chicago to
lay tho corner stone of tho new build
ing. Ills presence hero was to bo mado
the occasion of a great publlo cere
mony. Tho city was to bo tho sceno
of a anlendld festival, which would
gratify a host of patriotic American
citizens from the locality and from
abroad. Chicago vn bound by every
consideration of courtesy and self-Interest
to so manage tho celebration
that It should bo without hitch or dis
agreeable Incident of any sort.
"At this point tho unions threatened
to abstain from participation In ths
affair In a body and to hamper the
work of entertainment wherever they
could by calling oft their members
from overy employment that had to do
Wlh tho recptlon of tlip vlsl'.ors.
Woist of all, they resorted to .1 naaty
trick. Tho Bricklayers' and Stone Ma
tons' union votrii' to l.ii. a card of
honorary membership to I'resIJent
McKlnley with a distinctly dishonor
able purpose in view. Ho was to ba put
in a dilemma. If ho accepted the card,
which he might do as tho courteous
response to a courteous act, then ho
must not lay a non-union stone under
penalty of beliw; placarded as a rene
gade and a 'sent)' all ovor the country.
Tho idea was that in this wav nir.v
pressure might bo brought to bear en
the contractors."
The Tlmes-neraUl is of the opinion
that If the president shall come to
Chicago he will not come as the ser
vant of nny particular organization
but us the guest of tho entire public
and that he should bo treated as t-urh
mid not be forced Into a local contro
versy In which he has no official or
personal concern. This conclusion wjll
be generally approved. Intelligent
public opinion should rebuke tho agi
tators whose conception of courtesy
is so diseased as to prompt them to
lay measly little traps for the chief
executive of their country.
The record of prosperity in Sclmyl
Kill county, piesented In another col
umn, can be duplicated in every other
Industrial 'liter where strikes have
not thrown labor's fit into the fire.
How to Curb Trusts.
a
UT OF THE multiplicity of
words at tho Chicago trust
conference some wisdom was
evolved. Professor John Gra
ham Brooks, of Harvard university,
presented a definite contribution to the
general fund of Information and sug
gestion when he pointed out that. In
asmuch as the tendency toward con
solidation of business enterprises could
not be outlawed it Is dcsliablo to sur
round It with concrete safeguards, of
which he proposed:
(1) Absolute publicity of methods and
accounts.
(2) The removal of every artificial
advantage given by the tariff.
(3) Prevention of discrimination by
railroads In favor of large shippers, es
pecially trusts.
These propositions Involve difficult
but not impossible operations of law.
Publicity of methods and accounts may
be exacted as a condition of chart"!
privileges and Its advantage would bo
to expose over-capltallzatlon and pro
tect the unwary from deceptive invest
ments in watered securities. When tho
state grants a charter it confers up m
the recipients of the charter certain
advantages, in consideration of which
it may not unreasonably assert the
light to exercise such measure of
supervision ns it shall deem essential
to the public welfare. Whether such
supervision would be effective would
depend upon the honesty and Intelli
gence with which It should be exer
cised, but effective supervision need
not be considered Impossible.
Removal of artificial tariff advant
ages Is in lino with the true theory of
protection, which alms simply to equal
ize competitive conditions, protecting
tho homo producer and home laborer
from Injury at the hands of foreigners,
but not establishing home monopolies
with power to extort from home con
sumers artificial profits. When a pir
ticular tariff rate ceases to be pro
tective and becomes an instrument of
oppression it should bo lowered to tho
protective level or dl&iensed with en
tirely. This should not be an impos
sible task for honest and intelligent
statesmanship.
Lastly, prevention of discrimination
by railroads means that common car
riers, which owe their existence to pub
lic concessions, shall bo held striotly to
a policy of fair dealing with t!.e public.
This is unassailable In thojry and it
will become reasonably effectivo In
practlco whenever the powerful force of
an educated public opinion shall be
brought to bear with determination
upon tne makers and upon the en
forcers of the laws relating to intra
and Inter-state commerce.

The Land of Surprises.
f
T-WENTY.THIlEn thousand
acres of untouched coal
land, rich deposits of graph
lto and Iron ore, the latter
with a CO per cent, yield, and &llvor and
gold mines of unmeasured possibili
ties are among the resources of West
ern Siberia, as reported by one of our
European consuls; to say nothing of
the dormant value of this great emplro
In an agricultural sense, which is Ines
timable. A peculiar result of tho opening of
this great country to modern commerce
through th construction by the Rus
sian government of the Trans-Siberian
railway Is noted by an attache of tho
American embassy at St. Petersburg,
who first gives these figures of tho
amount of traffic on the completed por
tion of tho road:
Description. 1M0. 1SS7. 1SDS.
PnSHCllKCIS 211,000 512,(0) OIS.MM
Freight (tons) 101.CCO tll.COO 01G.CC0
During the first two months of tho
present year the amount of freight
transported amounted to 2?'i,3D3 tons;
and in tha month of May, on tho Cen
tral Siberian railway alone, 1,200 cars
o freight were waiting two months for
their turn, being dlrepted to a famine
stricken district In the direction of tho
Trann-Balkal. During tho first two
months of tho present year 150.000
workmen and settlers were cairled
along tho Siberian line. Tho nttacho
adds; "The great railway never expect
ed such success and has been built
economicallysteep hills, sharp curves,
light rails, a limited quantity of rolling
stock of bad quality and a Ktlll more
limited number of employes. Tn a word,
nil was prepared for a sleeping coun
try. What must be done now? It will
be to change the light rails for heavier
ones, to renew tho roadbed, to lengthen
and lo Increase the number of sleepcrr,
also to build switch stations at small
Interval on tho lino In order to In
crease the number of trains, and to
change the wooden bridges for Iron
bridges. It has also been found abso
lutely necessary to build large ware
houses to preserve cereals at various
points along the line."
' This significant development has ex
tended In other directions. We quote
from another consular report: "The Ob,
0110 of tho world's biggest rivers, emp
tying through the gulf of Ob Into tho
Arctic ocean, has 102 steamers and 20')
tugs running nlrcadv. On the Yenisei,
ten steamers carry the mails regularly.
The mouths of both theso rivers wcro
visited lafct siummor by English and
Russian ships. TI1I3 proves tho prac
ticability of connecting eastern and
western Siberia with Europe by water.
The mouth of the Ob Is to be deepened
and wharves are to bo built. On tho
coast of the Isurl country" there Is
regular postal communication between
Nlcolnjevsk, Vladivostok, and Inter
vening places, us well as connection
with Japanese ports and Port Arthur.
From Odessa and St. Petersburg to
various Asiatic ports runs the so-called
volunteer fleet, established In 1879. It
has fourteen steamers with 113,500 tons
displacement. In war they a can be
armed; In peace they carry freight,
travelers, Imlgrants and itroops."
Tho Ameiican who desires to bo

So hero's a hlp-hoora for you, whllo oft

You'ro manly as a sportsman and you'ro

Tls firmly interwoven with our poetry

What Byron said to Tommy Moore was
earnest as 'twas true,
And wo repeat to you, Sir Tom, his
"Here's a health to you!"
Wo like the Shamrock, too. Sir Tom; she

But wo rather like tho Columbia a little-

But when tho mighty trial comes, and
both begin to spin.
Wo wnnt-llko you, Sir Tom-we want
tho better boat to win!
But, most of nil, Sir Tom, we want,
whatever else betide,
That sportsmanlike good fellowship shall

So, whllo you touch the harp, Sir Tom,
tho Eagle In tho blue
Screams with our one united voice "Long
life and health to you!"

Floats up to tho dapplo sky;
And 1 watch through its dim, enchanted

That lie In tho valo below.

It is busy flitting there.

Till ono strange kiss somo unknown

Then through tho marble bosom warmed

Life's wine and lo! sho woko.
Such was tho legend, dearest, once they

September Masquerading.
Sho borrowed summer's emerald dress,
Sho twined gay flowers in her hair,
Her eyes shone clear, sho sweetly smiled
Wo could but own her fair.
And so wo gavo her answering smile,
Nor stopped to grlevo for summer fled,
Tho whole September played her flutes,
And warm, bright hours sped.
Wo roamed with her o'er woods and
fields,
And loitered by the shimmering tide,
And with each day's felicity
Were more than satisfied.
But oh! ono morn her eyes were dim,
Her hair was gray, her smllo had fled,
Her trailing robes wero lustreless
We grieved for summer dead.
