Tlic Victorian Era. NOT ONLY tho Innitest, Victor la's was likewise tho most illUHt.'M'ift nnd the most ciyilltnlile iclb'it In Biltlsh history. Tho chronology which wo published In yesterday's Issue present ed u brief abstract of some of the more notable political Incidents compacted within tin: G3 1-2 years of this gracious Mjverelgnty; but It was In the mental nnrt moral progress or tho Kncllsh people duilnir the Victorian era that history will ilml Its most giatlfylng matei litis. Ileadeis of Thackeray have had In sight into tho social conditions and at mosphere of court life under the sway of the reprobate George IV. It was into this air of debauchery and un cleanness that Victoria was called In her lSth year by the death of the color less AVilllam IV. At that time it may In truthfulness be 3aM that Intem perance was the rule iininni; the men and chastity probably the exception among: the women of tlu court. How by quiet tact, staunch virtue and faultless example Victoria changed all this, until In the later yeais of her reign the lltltlnh couit was recognlze.l throughout the woild as the cleanest in Kuroric, Is a fact properly citable as among the most noteworthy of her achievements, for It reveals the sphit of her telgii and the uplifting nnd wholesome trend of Iter soveielgn in lluences. What Victoria did for tho Improve ment of the manors and morals of her Immediate environment she did with equal tact for the encouragement of general education and philanthropy. Not only by money did she give more in aid of humane purposes than any predecessor or contemporary, but the benefit of her counsel, patronage and influence could always be countel upon in behalf of a worthy purpose. The democratic spirit of these mojern times does not piesent the biime per spective as does history for a cotrect view of tho outlines of monarchical influences and achievement; but In the universal nnd Intensely personal grief into which the British people are now plunged may be found a testimonial to Victoria's worth which no ordinary sovereign of colorless iccord nnd nega tive character could hope to command. As facts hitherto held In confidence are revealed, we shall know presently that Vlctoila was much nioie than a llgurc-head sovereign. The world will learn that until almost the last minute she fullllled conscientiously and ably tho functions devolving upon her queenly ofllce, directed the course of ministries, shuped the ends of foreign nnd domestic policy, and 'was In large degree Instrumental In the choice of the tight men for grave emergencies. This did not til ways appear on the bur face. Since tho death of tleorue III no English soveielgn has undertaken to iuIo by sheer force. Vlctoila em ployed diplomacy, womanly Intuition and tnct. Hut she ruled and she led. The glory of Iter ,pjK an(l , cl.p,m are fairly her's. Many of its mistakes would not have appeared had she had more power.

Strikes. A-"-0 U1CPIUCKTVTATIVK BKA I ('P.M. of Westmoreland JL county has been entrusted tho Intioductlon of a bill at Jlnrrlsbuig, alow; tho lines of Gover nor .Stone's recent message, for the protection of society against the evlla growing out of strikes. Its Introduc tion will mark u noteworthy step in advance df existing legislation on this subject An act approved May 18, 1S03, is now on tho statute books making It legal for one or both patties to an industrial dispute to petition courts of common pleas to nume a hoard of mediation and arbitration. Where Joint application Is made, court may grant a rule on each party to select three citizens not oonrcted with tho Interests of (;lthqr party as arbitrators. The ooiirt Is to select throo pther mem bers of the board, making a total of nine. Where but one purty makes up. plication the court shall give notice to both parties to appoint arbitrators, nnd If either party refuses to name its members iJtfiln ten dayt tho court shall appoint, sx; memberu. The board I? directed to consider nil papers pre sented to It, establish its rules nnd 1 sit ns a regularly constituted tribunal. Al the request of any two members, tho president of tho board muy send for persons, hooks nnd pilots and ho wry- compel wlt"aa o testify; un der a penalty of not more than 1500 flue and thirty days In Jail. The ap plicant for tho board shall stand us plaintiff, but where tho application In Jointly madij tho employer shall bj tho plaintiff, nnd both sides tnny appear with their attorneys and counsel. Ex perts may testily, and drawings, mod els and statements may bo Introduce! as evidence. Hoth the board nnd wit nesses are to bo paid out of tho treas ury of the county In which the arbi trators are appointed. A majority or the members of the board shall make a decision, which, nfter proper attest by tho secreary of the board, becomes a court record and Is to bo filed for safe keeping. According to the act, the finding Is to bo "flnat and conclu sive" but no provision for enforcement Is mndo and the act therefore stands on the statute books as a dead letter. The bill lhsplred by Governor Stone, while not yet made public In detail, contemplates the plnclnB of a kind of police quarantine around tho mini, mill, factory or shop in which a striko of magnitude occurs. It provides substantially that upon notice given by the mine or factory Inspector's de partment, that such a strike Is In pro gress, and If within three days follow ing neither of tho parties In conillct shall have named three arbitrators, tho governor, In tho Interest of ths public order, and without waiting for further summons, shall order to the scene of trouble a sutllcleut military foico to do elther or two things. If the strikers name arbitrators and the employers decline or fall to name them, the mine, factory, mill or shop Is to be Fcliteil by the commonwealth and closed until arbitration Is ac cepted by the employers. If the em ployers name arbitrators and the strikers decline or fall to name them, the commonwealth Is to use Its mili tary power to afford protection to all men who shall elect to take the va cant places. When both parties have named three arbitrators each, the president Judge, upon notice from either side or both sides, shall name one or three addi tional arbitrators, the whole number to constitute a court with full power to try, hear and decide tho issue. Nomination or arbitrators carries with it a pledge to accept the completed llndlng, but should cither party arter ward disobey the verdict of the arbi tral court, the commonwealth Is to use Its military power as before, either to close tho working place until the employers obey, or to protect other employes In case the strikers shall re fuse to return to work. The proposi tion to assert tho commonwealth's power In this manner Is defond-jd by the governor nnd his advisors upon tho ground that It Is a Justifiable! ex erclso of the police function to prevent the disturbances of the public pence fettre to attend a prolonged war be tween labor nnd cnpital. On this ba sis they nlllrm their belter that the Supremo court would sustain the pro posed act against attack on the score of unconstitutionality. The question here touched upon is of such vast nnd far-reaching Import ance t(iat thorough discussion rather than hasty conclusion Is called for. This Is worthy of widespread partici pation so that when the legislature shall act It may proceed wisely. One thing is certain: The complex organ ization of modern Industry Into Im mense and often rival" camps, cmploy ei s merging into great corporations on the one hand, and worklngmen, on the other combining In powerful labor unions and giant federations, has brought forwnrd economic and social conditions beyond the control of for mer legislation on this subject, and civilization is called upon to revise Its laws. Is It powerless to do this ef fectively and Justly? This Is for tha near future to determine. The proposal to abolish stamps upon bank checks of small denomination Is socialistic. All checks or none should be stamped. Electric Conveyance of Freight. FOlt MANY years one of the most perplexing problems in New York state has been what disposition to make of the Erie canal. Millions have been spent on this unsatisfactory waterway and millions more must be spent un less it be abandoned, but those who argue for Its abandonment have hith erto offered no substitute. It has remained for a former city surveyor of Utlca, N. Y., Mr. J. H. Ehrehart, to supply this missing link. In a letter to the Engineering News he proposes to construct an electrlo freight railway on the canal right of way and work a revolution In the costs of transportation. Such a road, he points out, would traverse tho en tire state without a grade crossing, and by constructing u tunnel four miles long southeast of Schenectady, f i eight can be hauled from IJuffalo to New York and raised leas than flftv feet In the entlte distance, and part of this amount of elevation Is only re qulied to modify the grades In Roches ter, Syracuse and Utlca. As to tho possibilities of electrical transmission he says: "The state has unlimited water power at Niagara; It has 70 feet hmd at Lockport for all the water It can carry to that point; It has 00 feet head nt Rochester, with the great storage reservoir at Portage nt its command; it has 800 feet head at Rome on tho Illaclt River canal, with largo storage capacity In tho Adlrondacks; It has 40 feet head at Little Falls on the Mo hawk river; It has 200 feet head in the Mohawk river from Schenectady to Troy, which can all be utilized, with storage reservoirs on Schoharie creek and East and West Canada creeks. Economical transmission is now pos sible at fifty miles, and will probably soon reach seventy-five miles. Thus it will require but two stations on tho Hudson river, ono about Fonda on the Mohawk, and one between Syracuse and Rochester, to be operated with steam with coal for fuel. Even in these last districts there is considerable water power controlled by tho stat that can bo used. "Tho three electric locomotives of tho Baltimore and Ohio railroad have been in constunt service for several years nnd have proved a completo success. These locomotives haul thirty-five loaded cars irpttfrttw'f69i'r44e' at tho rato of fifteen miles per hour, and, running light, have mndo the trip through tho tunnel nt fllxty-elght miles per hour. These locomotives, on nuch a grade us can be built from Buf falo to New York, could haul fifty pressed steel cars with a capacity of fifty tons live load, 2.G00 tons of freight per train, and the average work with such freight as hns been handled by canal could average 2,000 tons live load per train, not six months, but twelve months In the year. "A double track railroad, with middle passing sidings, handling only car load lots, estimating on a basis of eight million tons east-bound and two mill ion tons west-bound freight, allowing the railroad, with equipment and ter minals,' to cost $100,000,000, could movo freight for less than $1 per ton, or S cents ier hundred, 3 cents per bushel, I car load lots, at owner's risk, whether sixth class or first class. We can bet ter appreciate what this means when ' a local rato could bo made bo that Rochester manufacturers could ship to New York for 414 cents per hundred, Syracuse 4 cents, Home nnd Utlca. 314 cents, Amsterdam and Schenectady 3 cents, nnd Kingston and Newburg 2 cents per hundred; or, In the caso of the latter cities, for a less amount per ton than It costs the coal dealers to deliver a ton of coal to a private resi dence anywhere In the city." While the foregoing Is or greater In terest to New Yorkers than to others, It has a suggestive value which Is gen eral. In many communities are canals 1 about ready to be condemned. In other communities are abandoned railroad rights of way, already graded and easily convertible Into roadbeds for electrlo freight trains. To this must be added the numerous passenger 1 street railways that hunger and thirst i for legislative permission to carry parcel and bulk freight. Soon these possibilities will be realized. It Is doubtful ir the steam railroads, with all their potency at state capitals, can much longer postpone the Inevitable. As a matter or ract, many shrewd steam railway officials are quietly pre paring to occupy the electrical field themselves, furnishing tho capital to figurehead trolley corporations with a view to pre-empting available fran chises. In a private letter to a friend In Washington General S. M. B. Young of the army, who has been In the Phil ippines from tho beginning of Ameri can occupation, writes that the natives are much more difficult to deal with than the Indians of the United States because they have the same savage in stincts, with habits of civilized people. He adds: "Tho encouragement they receive from tho United States and the delusive hopes held out to them by the antl-imperlallst politicians Is the prin cipal cause of prolonging the trouble." No comment Is needed. The original of "Little Lord Fauntle roy" Is now a congressional newspaper reporter In Washington. It Is a pleas ure to announce also that "Little Lord Fauntlerov" did not engage In the business until he had undergone a haircut. Tho grip microbe seems to have suc cumbed to treatment but tho municipal microbe is liable to prompt us to all sorts of strange moves before Scranton has been permanently , classified and anchored. Prof. Garner, the student or monkey language, Is a native of Tennessee, but residents of the state refuse to agree that monkey talk Is any easier Tor him on that account. Ex-Presldent Cleveland, like many others, thinks that we ought to have peace, but does not offer any well defined plan to bring iti about. It Is Intimated that the River and Harbor bill invariably points out much expensive territory that the geograph ies overlook. Uicforia's Reign a Memorable On? Editor of The Tribune Sir: When Sir Charles Dilke was a joung man he began his political career by an onslaught on the qui en and the rojal family of Creat Britain, not personally, but as a constitutional anachron lm, a political anomaly and a national extrava gaiiic. The late John bright, then in the liev.iliv ; of ills power and popularity us n reformer anil i a Iladlcal, answered Sir Charles by saying ibat ' monarchy in Kngland under Queen Victoria ne.:d- I cd no apology. To a republican, HWng under ie- publican institutions, monarchy clocs, Indeed, need an apology more or less plausible according to the limitations or uutociary of the manarculal ' power. There is nothing under the sun so dim- cuit lor a foreigner to comprehend as the pollti- I cal institutions of another country. He May assimilate their theoretical principles or appre- ' bend their application, or Ken sympathize with fume ot tho historical states of ron eminent ; but ', those which lute no anomaly In his own Institu- i tlons he regards cither as reactionary, superfluous or despicable, and an American, for Instance, can .not readily concciie why englishmen not only' , safeguard but almost worship such an effete in 1 stitution as monarch!, headed Into Inanity bv a I republican parliament and a democratic execu tlw. Monarchy as a toclal institution is anoih;r nutter. A court giatlfiea all the variety of hu man wishes. It depends altogether upon the char acter of the sumeign how far its moral tone ele- sates, or degrades, not only Ha environment, but the national character. The influence of Queen Victoria on the histori cal doelopmcnt of thu llrltltb empire during h-r long ami glorious reign ot nearly tlxtyrue years only Is perspecthe. Her political power has been to passbc and so impalpable that few of her own subjects outside the small ciiclc of the higher officers of slate rctognlm! it or oen regaided ii, jci ii existed io an extent which moulded the destiny of the empire to n greater extent than that of any of her predecitsorj from the days ot Klltabetli to her own. It Is true that the Stewart dinasty, which lutmcmd between the I'lantag net and the Hanoi rriau, kept Kngland in a state of resolution for u century, (leorge the Third precipitated the American leiolution, and his father before him was Instrumental in precipitat ing Napoleonic wan. Hut their influence was de structive, not constructive. It- was antagonistic to political, roc Isl and material progress. The rule of those despots made for monarchist an archy and not for national progress, 1837 when Queen Victoria came to the throne he was only eighteen years of age. She suc ceeded her uncle, William tho Third, the brother of George the Fourth, the last of tho Hanoi erlan dynasty who ruled In Kngland. The four Ucorgei, the four fools, as llyron called them, wero noted for their Imperturbable Ignorance, their vulgarity, their sensuality, their obstinacy and Ignorance of the English, language. It was not a promising ancestral stock from which to bring forth a queen of Kngland, am) that queen a mere girl, with the country prostrated Vt home and threatened from abroad, Under William's short and irdrlorlbus fti'loai the uourt J weltered In seusuallte-, halt Mra;llo, half plu-ntyc at It hail during the rrlsn of the Cloorgea.

Sub. sequent cunts did not mate the sailing quite as easy ns Ilonapirtc had expected, although before the ear was nut Kngland was willing to sign a treaty ot peaie. The opening of the century found Croat nritain fitting, out Ih-et for the Ilalllc to put an end to the menacing lcawe. Nelson was wltli It. That made all battles half won be fore begun. Copenhagen was the first. The Danish fleet met the Ilrltlslurs with a waim reception, which continued four hours. Finally the Danes lost. Nelson now turned his atten tion to the ltu'clan fleet, bent on wiping the ships of each nation In the Maritime League against Kngland off the face of the waters, whin his hand was staled by the annnunrc men that Nicholas I hail Miccerded Paul cm the Iiusslan throne und hail withdrawn fnmi the slightest French alliance, thus breaking the backbone of the lca.-ue. This news would bale startled most generals; not so with Napoleon. He now actually threat ered an invasion of Kngland fiom Ilou'.ogne. Large bodies of troops wire moed to this point, wltli the otensiolc intentiun of being transported to the Knglish coast. Ihe llrltMi gmoininmt, liowcier, made energetic iircpaiallons to nit tin threatened Itnaslon. Lord Nc-lsou was sent with a powerful int against lloulngne, and llonaparte, com Inn d of the liopolesMievi nf sue iii), abandoned the enterprise.
