(lltOW,
The question of Inw-piiforcfiucnt Is
not nearly no complicated as it looks.
It Is the KettlnK started rlplit that Is
difficult. Once the start is made prop
erly, the lest Is simply a matter of
sticking Kilmly to it.
Give Roosevelt A Rest.
Till: KAOEItNJiSS of certain
politicians to force the vice
presidential nomination on
Governor Hoosevelt has a
nunibi't of explanations. One In that
he Is a very popular man, whose ap
pearance on the tlcl:t with McKlnley
would cnlhue the youii men of the
United Stales, especially In the coun
try west of thy Mississippi river. Intro
duce "KinBer ' Into the campaign In
the vc-ry locality whete William Jen
nliiK Hryan is stronscst, and thus
help to brinp out votes for the con
gressional, state and local Republican
candidates. Another Is that It would
lemove fiom New York state polltlc3
a factor not wholly pleading to the
'.it Be corporations, a1iofo valuable
franehls"s Koosovelt Insists upon tax
ins, or to the trading politicians who
have been accustomed to deal In lvf
islatlve exemptions and special privi
leges upon the principle that to the
victors belong the spoils. A thltd Is
that those who have ambitions con
nected vlth the presidential succes
sion after McKlnley which the nom
ination of Hoosevelt In lfltU would not
Bratlfy would be fjlacl to put the vicu
presidential damper on the hero of
San Juan under pretence of confer
ring a fjreat honor upon him.
Tliosn who really ndinlre the stren
uous qualities and practical honest of
Theodore Hoosevelt do not niiss his
nomination for the vice presidency for
thy lecognlze that, worthy as he Is
of all the honor that the country can
Blv.- him, he Is not iltted for the vice
presidency nor is the vice presidency
fitted for him. Under the conditions
which exist In our government today
and which aie too secure to be over
turned by the superabundant enemy
of any Individual, the ofllce of vice
rresIclJiit is essentially diplomatic and
advisory. It calls for a high quality
of tact, llnessp and the senilis of con
ciliation, qualities which Colonel
Hoosevelt does not pretend to possess,
and It offers almost no Held whatever
for the exercise of the militant, go
nlicaj characteristics which are the
sum uf his ImpetuousTind determined
nature, if he were elected vice presi
dent he would be Imprisoned In an at
mosphere of inactivity and conven
tionality as distasteful and awkwaicl
to him ns would bo his 'strenuous life
to the man wlio.se temperament In
clines him to u-tlrement and repose.
To borrow a simile more expressive
than elegant, lie would be like a llsh
out of water.
Nor would the misplacing of Hoose
velt be Justifiable on the score of party
ner-e.islty. There is no such necessity.
The Republican party is rich in ma
terial llttcd to the requirements of the
vice piHsidentlal olllc mui not so poor
In popular confidence that It has to
tmploy extraordinary expedients to
Inciease its electoral vote. As a can
didate for le-ek-ctlon to the Rovernor
shlp of his own great state Colonel
Roosevelt can make as effective use
of his energies during the campaign
as if he were on the national ticket;
and If he shall succeed In carrying to
completion some of the Ideas which
he ha-j paitlally developed in the courso
of his gubernatorial career, the gain
will be. national in its educational
stope. -
l.et Hoosevelt nlone. lie Is all right
where ho Is. The square peg does not
lit Into the round hole.
Wharton Barker has at last cot his
long-covcted presidential nomination.
All that he now needs is votes.
A Free Hand Essential.
JUDGK LOCHHKN'S opinion that
the constitution automatically
extends Itself over new terri
tory Is coming in for a great
deal of anxious discussion which seems
to us to be In the nature of a waste of
words. The Judge's opinion deter
mines nothing so far us national legis
lation Is concerned. It Is worth no
more than that of any other Jurist of
high personal character and respect
able scholarship, many of whom hold
precisely the opposite Interpretation.
It Is Interesting mainly as tending to
reveal the lines of argument which the
Democratic opponents of expansion
will employ when they shall undertake
to convince the Supreme court that the
constitution In Its entirety necessarily
and Immediately follows the Dag, It
has no other value.
A very little practical reflection
ought to satisfy those In perplexity
with regard to this mater that u free
hand for congress In (elation to the
administration of government under
suchytirjf,lpK(iTid peculiar conditions
u exist, for nYmule. In the Phlllp-
pines Is absolutely essential It that ad
ministration Is to succeed. It must be
evident from the most cursory glance
at the early history of the United
States that the federal constitution
was Intended to fit a population which
had had a high order of experience In
liberal self-government, which pos
sessed n high percentage of 'popular
education, which was homogeneous In
character and which Intended to es
tablish a union of states, equal and
soerelgn, with Just enough power
delegated from state to federal au
thority to mulie the federation of
states n fact rather thtui a llctlon. In
this spirit was the constitution drawn;
and while the broadening Influence of
Judicial Interpretation has In the in
tervening years largely expanded It to
lit the continuous growth of our Insti
tutions, It Is not practically possible
for nny court to breathe Into the let
ter of the constitution an elasticity suf
ficient to spread It In Its entirety with
successful application over the mongrel
races of the Orient, JuRt emerging
from centuries of disqualification for
self rule. As conditions vary In these
directing dependencies so must details
of administration vary to match them,
a variation not to be hampered by any
hard and fast constitutional barriers.
It will bo enough that In approaching
these new problems of government our
administrators shall be guided as to
details by the Just and elevated spirit
of our written constitution the spirit
which maketh alive where the letter
Itself might kill.
It Is unlikely that the Supreme court,
when It comes to pass on this great
Issue, will take a view In conflict with
the palpable necessities of the situa
tion. Hut should It afllrm the Interpre
tation laid down by Judge Lochren the
only practical effect would be the de
velopment of an Irresistible demand
for a constitutional amendment per
mitting congress to legislate for the
Philippines to fit developed needs.
There is really nothing so very sen
sational about Lord Salisbury's advice
to Englishmen to equip themselves as
riflemen until they shall surely be nlil
to icpel a hostile Invasion should one
arise. George Washington expressed
the same wise thought when he said:
"In time of peace prepare for war."
Cliicago's Labor War.
A
REVIEW or the laboi sltua
tion In Chicago, written by
J. D. Whelpley, a careful
and highly reputable, jour
nalist, for tl'f Washington Star, pre
sents many features of Interest, some
of them not previously understood.
The public Is aware that for several
vveok.4 the organized labor In t'.v build
ing trades In Chicago, to the number
of 10,000 men, has been at loggerheads
with the organlred contractors. In
which period of deadlock it has been
estimated that labi4 has losjt $20,000,00)
in wages, to say nothing of the gen
eral loss Incident to a whole season's
suspension of building operations In a
community as large as Chicago; but
ther" nas not been a clear undei stand
ing of all the points at Issue.
Hroadly speaking, theie aie, accoi cl
ing to Mr. Whelpley, lour patties to
iliis controversy, the woikmen, tin
eontractois, supply men and the citi
zens. The workmen are represented
by the Huildlng Trades' council, the
contractors by the Huildlng Contrac
tor' council, the supply men by in
other council and the citizens by Indi
vidual grievance against the other?.
While it Is true that some violence has
been done during the past eight
months of labor trouble, the class of
men who aie idle, says Mr. Whelpley,
Is the very best. The laborer proper Is
not invohed. It Is the carpenter, the
mason, the plumber ano the fitter wlu
are waging the war. As a rule these
men are Intelligent, fairly well educat
ed and full of pluck and lesource. They
are mostly of American, German or
Scandinavian parentage and do not In
clude the so-called dangerous or an
archistic clement always present In a
big city like Chicago. In the past eight
months five men have been killed and
110 assaulted on account of labor dif
ficulties, but the stories of intimida
tion are largely exaggerated. The war
lias been and still Is laigely a question
of endurance.
The pilnclpal demands of the union,
upon which has hinged nearly every
stilke or lock-out, have been: First,
that the union should have the right
to limit the amount of work to be clone
In a day; second, that the walking
delegates of the union should have the
light to transfer u man from one lob
to another at will regardless of the
wishes of the employers; that Is to say,
they demanded the working system
which prevails In England whereby a
steam fitter can cut onlv a certain
number of threads for a day's woik, or
a plumber make so many Joints, no
matter how short a time this may take
or how much more he could do for his
employer In the eight hours If lie was
allowed to pioceed, the same idea hold
ing good In all the tiades. The right
to transfei workmen from one Job to
another implied the power of the walk
ing delegate to go on to n Job at, say,
3 o'clock In the afternoon and order a
man who was working on that Job to
pick up his tools and go to some other
employer upon whose woik the dele
gate desired to put more men. These
demands were resisted by tho contrac
tors and form tho real basis of most of
the trouble. The contractor, on the
other hand, has, a grievance against
tho supply men who have a successful
trust for the sale of all building mater
ial sold lnsldo tho city limits of Chi
cago. No contractor was allowed to
use any material bought outside of
tho city and prices were kept up above
their natural level, Materials were
sold for use outside of Chicago cheaper
than they could be bought for use In
side. Tho man who wanted bricks to
use In Elgin, III., could buy them $1 a
thousand ehpaper In Chicago than he
could If they were to be used In tho
city. Tho citizen who desires to put
up a building thus had, a grievance
ngalnil all concerned,
Tho workinen demand high wages,
with control of their own time and
movements. The contractor can give
no guarantee of satisfaction; tho sup
ply trust charges him what It pleases
for his material. The result Is that It
Is not only expensive to build, but, In
fact, almost Impossible, owing to thu
continual conflict among those who
do tho actual building. Tho citizen or
tho corporation, therefore, no mattar
how desirous of Improving his proper
ty, can do nothing but leave the money
In tho bank, which would otherwise bo
expended for labor nnd find Its way
quickly Into channels where It Is most
needed. Mr. Whelpley is obviously
correct In saying that such a condition,
It continued for long, means depression
In all branches of business, Idleness
and want for thousands of people, and
Is a decided setback to any community,
no matter how large or firmly estab
lished, to say nothing of tho Increase
In crime which Inevitably results.
There Is, this writer tells us, no ques
tion but that many of tho workmen
are dissatisfied with the present condi
tion of affairs, and arc willing to
acknowledge they are asking more
than can be given them. A realization
of what the present strike has cost the
people of Chicago, nnd the conditions
sure to picvull In consequence next
winter, Is becoming more general, and
has given rise to more openly expressed
anxiety to put an end to tho difficulty.
It Is freely predicted that the strike in
Its main features will be ended within
thirty days, but the conditions of the
building ttade In Chicago when read
justment Anally comes will be vastly
different from that of eight months
ago, jrcatly to the advantages of tho
large Investor, but to the ruin of many
contractors. The latter are divided
Into three classes. Those with un
limited means and credit, those who
are fairly well to lo, and those who re
quire the Investors to furnish money
as a building progresses, The first
class, known as the big general con
tractors, does not comprise more than
a dozen fltms. The major part of the
building Is done by the second class,
nnd iho third class takes In all the
small-r Jobs tho others do not care to
handle.
The result of the present strike
when brought to nn end will, says Mr.
Whelpley, be the death of tho material
and .uipply trusts, the wiping out of
nearly all of the small contractors, the
failure of many of the middle class and
the great prosperity of the big general
contractors. The present scale of
wage will be continued, the unions
will be refused the right to regulate
the amount of work donj In a day and
the right to tinnsfer men from one Job
to another at will. It Is freely predict
ed that within n year the greater part
of all building operations in Chicago of
any magnitude will be In the hands of
a half dozen firms with large financial
resources. The reason for this Is that
ccnltill will tint nnflprtnlro a rrrnf
building and run any risk Itself. It will
requite the contractor to finance the
entire Investment until the structure
Is ready to be turned over to the own
ers. This will shut out from competi
tion nil except those who can furnish
the millions necessary to carry on such
a bus-lners. The downfall of the ma
terial trust will come through this con
dition also, for these general contrac
tors buy at will in any part of the
country, and are not dependent upon
a local supply.
In the meantime Chicago has lost a
season which promised to be one of
great prosperity. Times, Mr. Whelpley
Informs us, are good In all other lines
of business and money is plentiful and
ready for Investment. Plans were
made this spring for six great sky
scrapers, nnd among the other build
ings upon which work has been sus
pended are the $3,000,000 post office and
a half dozen large city school build
ings. None of these can be built this
year, and few will bo commenced until
another spring. The question arises,
what has been gained for labor, capi
tal or general public by this prolonged
and costly civil war? It Is a question
which is more easily asked than ans
wered. Theie Is one thing In connection with
those Cuban postal scandals of which
the people of the United States can rest
nssuied. The present postmaster gen
eral will omit no necessary act" of In
vestigation nnd will permit no guilty
man to escape.
Senator Cullom Is not tho most bril
liant man In. public life, but he Is ex
perienced, conscientious, able and level
headed. The Republicans of Illinois
have clone well to Indorse him for re
election. A the poet of th" Wllkes-IJarro
Leader wisely express it, the success
of the circus elf moiifclratea beyond
question that it pays to liberally ad
vertise. The ense with which the Stnndaiel
Oil company gobbled up the new
Kiixher fit rjuines Indicates that even
nature s powerless against th oil oc
topus. Published lepoitB of the Populist
conventions Indicate that It is w.jll
that the two wings of the party aro

There Is one merit In "Insurgent"
political literature. It Insures that what
the Wanamaker organs print one day
they will have to contradict the next.
Admiral Dewey's platform no longc,1
excites curiosity. Whether he shall Is
sue It at all or not Is fast becoming a
matter of Indifference.
Tho resignation of Pood Commis
sioner Wells Is taken In some sections
as a triumph for oleomargarine Jour

CONCERNING GAS ENGINES.
Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In connection lth our editorial "On
Versus bteam" in this morning's Issue of Tno
Tribune, I beg to call jour attention to an an'
elc In Science and Industry, a copy of which I
send herewith, In which sonic of the posibllit;rs
of the gas engine when u'icd In conj.incllcn
with coke and Iron maUns arc outlined. i far
as regards the deelopmcnt of the gas cn;;lu
In Europe and America, it is true that tliit
motor lias not yet been applied In this cour In
to the utilization of Idast furnace gas, owing
largely to the fact that the most progressiM!
American furnace managers now make micli gool
use of tills fuel for steam making that they do-
clop from It a surplus of power beyond the de
mands of the furnace plant itself. Tho mccess
with which the gas engine has been applied to
tlds woik in Ilclgiiim Is, howeer, attraetli
the attention of Americans, and they are now
investieating this new field with the houcYiat
at least a part of the possibilities mentioned in
the article aboe referred to may be deceloped.
There aie now scores of gas engine" builders in
tlds country, many of whom hae made notable
Improciiiciitn In Its construction and sceral arc
prepared to build engines as large as hao been
built in Europe. I think it is true that tl.c
engines built by the Wcstinghomc company at
their works in Pittkburg are among the most
powerful that hac ccr been built.
Yours truly,
C. V. Turner.
Scranton, May 10.
The article refnred lo appeared in the Maieh
Issue- of Science and Industry uniler the heading
iron Smelting as a Source of Power." Follow
ing is an estraet:
"Recent decelopments in the construction and
use of the gas engine are Introducing a new
factor in the problem of utilizing blast-furnace
gases. As we hinted ahoe, the combustible por
tion of these gases Is largely diluted with inert
gases, and, what is woise, they carry gleat
quantities of dust, which gbes more 01 less
trouble In the cjllnder of a gas engine, r.xlen
she experiments hace, howecer, been made In
Europe that Indicate that, notwithstanding the
disidvantages of dust ami a dilute gas, blast
furnace gases can be successfully used in the
gas engine. There aie also indications that, the
waste gas from a ton of fuel that has been, used
for smelting Iron in a blast furnace can, by
means of the gas engine, be made to decclop
more power than is now obtained when the same
amount of fuel Is burned under a boiler, and
nearly as much as could be obtained if the coke
neic made directly into gas for gas-engine driv
ing. "A blast furnace is, in reality, an immense gas
preiducer of the best tjpc, and, if it is desired to
make gas for power purposes on a large se-alc,
It would be difficult to design a more satisfac
tory device for the purpose than a modern blast
furnace. These facts, taken in conjunction with
the recent success in the application of gas en
giner to large power units, have led to the ery
inteiestlng conclusion that 'iiic of the most alu
able products of blat-furnace plants of the
future will be power In sonic form suitable for
tiansmUxion and distribution, while the iron pro
duced will lie of secondary importance, huch a
plan would invoice tho placing of the furnaces
In the siclnily of large msnufacturing centers,
where there would 1 a leady market for both
their products. It the demand for iron should
be less than the possible output of the furnaces,
they could still be run at a piofll, meiely for
the purpose of supplying power."
We understand that the new lluffalo plant of
the Lackawanna Iron and Steel company is like
ly to work out practically the idea suggested
by Mr. Turner in the fun-going quotation.

I know a lady who was troubled with what her doctors termd
Intestinal indigestion. Her last doctor had, her pursue the Salisbury
treatment, which consists of eating only beef and bread dried in the
oven and drinking all the hot water she could. I have seen her in the
office where she is employed walk along with a glass filled with' water
steaming hot. The Salisbury treatment did give her some relief and
she persisted in it for three months. It was then that she was induced
to try Ripans Tabules, and now she finds that there are many eatables
(chicken for instance) which she was not allowed to eat at first which
she can now eat without distress. She says Ripans T-abules seen; to
counteract the acidity of her stomach. Their effect upon her has been
wonderful and the reliof she gets is as much as she ever experienced
with the Salisbury treatment, and she can now choose from a more
liberal bill of fare.
