Ten Weeks of the Strike.
w
ITII DUE allowance for
the uncertainties of con
ventions, it Is now pen-
crally expected that the
Indianapolis national convention of
mine workers will not vote to call out
the soft coal miners, but will decide to
assess them for the support of the an
thracite strikers. This would be a sen
sible move. It would avoid tho viola
tion of contracts representing tho
fruits of years of effort, and it would
assure to the anthracite workers some
Income In Idleness. As an Incidental
result It would spare tho country the
inestimable ills of a tie-up of fuel pro
duction and supply, vUiich, should it
bo attempted and succeed, would liter
ally prostrate American industry and
commerce and throw into idleness mill
ions of wage-earners In every corner of
the land.
It Is proper that the soft coal miners
should pay the expenses of the hard
coal strike, for they are reaping' the
neneius ot it. Tlio work and wages
that the anthracite. miner loses through
this strike the bituminous miner gains.
It takes just about a flxed quantity of
coal to meet the market demands.
When the anthracite mines are work
ing they get a share of this trade; when
they are Idle the soft coal necessarily
is used. It lias been pioved already in
.he course or this strike that It is not
possible to keep soft coal out of the
hard coal market. Industry must go on.
Steam must be made. If It cannot bo
made by means of one kind of fuel it
will be by another. There could not bo
freedom of internal trade if It were not
in the power .of the manufacturer to
purchase any kind of fuel offered for
sale if in his judgment It were needed.
Meanwhile there seems to be little
doubt that numbers of strikers who
went into the strike reluctantly are
tired of idleness and want to go to
work. AVe think the companies are to
be commended for not Inviting the
bitterness and posslblo turbulence
which would come from a premature
effort to resume mining. As it is now,
they are losing little except ordinary
profits. Their coal remains, If it Is not
iiIiiDd and sold nt present It can bo
mined and sold later, no doubt at an
advanced price. From the standpoint
of the companies It Is only necessary
to have enough patience to win back
nil that is lost. An aggressive policy on
their part would bo more dramatic and
' perhaps thnt is why some ot the sen
sational papers are clamoring for it;
but tho waiting policy bus tho advant
age of preserving tho peace of tho
mining communities, except for "minor
disturbances, and from every stand
point this is desirable.
Tho tenth week of tho stiiko finds tlio
situation unchanged on either side and
offers no clue to when the end may be
Xcxpected.
I It "14 to bd hoped that the attempt
jjto secure a pardon for Walter McAllls-Jte-r,
one of tho Paterson quartette con
tvleted of murdering Jennie Bosschle

t Lord Salisbury's: Retirement.
r-TpVirc HETXREMKNT of Lord
5 I Salisbury from the British
JL premiership and from public
life biings to a close a career
avhlchjias been singularly enigmatic.
?n an use the whoe trend of which
ins been. democratic, and against cur
ients toward liberalism which seemed
Jlttipst Impossible tb stein. this aristo
crat of the aristocrats, coldly, stcudlly
and cynically pushed himself forward,
OyWthe heads of much nioro forceful
liurt attractive men, to tho first place
fn the, British empire next to royally
lelf$ tjnd held the relna of power with
apparent euise under circumstances
seetnln'sly certain to culminate in his
downfall,
Vo have reurt no analysis of this
itrango man's strange power which
adequately accounts for Itr As an ad
rfllnlstrator ho has committed nearly
ivery political crime that would in the
tfige of an ordinary man brine on dla-
HBler. He has been reactionary', pessi
mistic, contemptuous of public opinion,
Indecisive In foreign policy nt times
when decision seemed most needed, nnd
decisive at other times, whclt caution
was called for. He has carried nepot
ism and preferment by "pull" to nn ex
treme which has elicited frequent com
plaint from even the rabid Tories who
constituted the backbone of his political
backing. He has been unfortunate In
diplomacy and Inglorious In War and
yet, In spite of these things, he has held
on to the reins of power with a grip
which could not be unloosened, nnd wo
doubt not that he will go Into history
as one of tho great figures of tho Vic
torian era.
That he had a great talent for man
agement nobody will deny. Hud ho
used this with greater recognition of
the newer forces in modern life; had
ho pcHsrarscd tho power to select for
proferment cnlelcut nnd capable young
men, chosen more largely for reasons of
merit; and especially had he poscssed
Iho amiability of temperament and of
contact with public conditions so char
acteristic, for example, of William Mc
Ivlnlcy, a man who started much below
Lord Cecil In ndvuntuge and with pos
sibly an Inferior utontul equipment, tho
retiring premier could hardly have es
caped extraordinary greatness. Hut
though he lived and worked and accom
plished many large results In the nine
teenth nnd twentieth centuries, ids at
titude of mind wus essentially that ot
tho seventeenth century, nt least two
full hundred years behind tho times.
The selection of Mr. Balfour as his
successor Is doubtless tentative. The
commanding personality of tho Salis
bury icglme, next to the enigmatic old
premier himself, was that veneered
radical, Joseph Chamberlain. Ho will
dominate the academic and scholarly
Balfour as the oak dominates tho ivy
and If he wants the premiership, no
man in English public life can say him
nay.
In tile opinion of a writer In Harper's
"Weekly, tho building of the Isthmian
canal, among other striking effects, will
revolutionize the revolutionists of Latin-America
by giving them more sub
stantial things than revolution-making
to do. It is his opinion that under the
stimulus of cheapened transportation
the agricultural and also tho Industrial
development of South America will be
hastened; and the Inhabitants will be
come too busy with personal affairs to
give encouragement to military adven
turers Intent upon upsetting the exist
ing order of things. Let us hope so, at
any rate. But the surest way to effect
this lesult is by colonization. The
mongrel combination of bloods and
races dominant in most Latin-American
countries Is fit for just the kind of
Institutions now in vogue and cannot
be fitted for a better kind except
through control of supeiiois.
Governor Taft at Rome.
I
T IS TO BE regretted that nego
tiations at Rome for the early
withdrawal of the Spanish-speak
ing friars from the Philippine
island", in progress between the Vati
can and Governor Taft, after a prom
ise of early and harmonious conclusion,
should now appear to be entering a
stage of difficulty. It is also to be re
gretted that there should appear to be
danger of u stirring up of prejudices to
no good purpose.
The friar question In the Philippines
Is very simple, if we may credit tho
testimony of American officials deputed
to study it. In course of years, by
nets and ways in no way reflecting
upon the church to which they are at
tached, but natural under the demoral
izing Influences of Spanish administra
tion, large numbers of the ecclesiastical
brotherhoods In tho nrchipeIago have
'become obnoxious to the natlves.whose
pacification Is retarded by tlielr pres
ence. These friars, or many of them,
being Spanish in speech and sympathy,
have systematically obstructed the
work of the American government and
their continuance in the Islands would
vastly Increase our difficulties.
In this situation, the government at
Washington, through Governor Taft,
proposes to the Vatican tho purchase
of all the lands and property owned by
these brotherhoods, at a price to be
flxed by arbitration; and also urges
tho authorities at Rome to recall these
friars and to substitute " priests who
speak the English tongue and who are
acquainted with the conditions of
American administration, Including tho
complete separation between church
and state. Theie is nothing unreason
able In this proposition; on the con
trary. It has the support of the fore
most American Catholics, who wish
their church to put its best men In the
new dependencies, In order that It may
be built up In the same manner and
with the same success which has at
tended Its career in the United States,
proper,
But It seems that certain Spanish In
fluences are at work In opposition to
the proposals of Governor Taft; and
It Is posslblo that these nre also respon
sible for tho endeavor to carry this
delicate question Into tho realm of sec
tarian controversy. On this basis It is
easy to understand the purpose of the
recent report, so plainly without foun
dation, that American teachers In the
public schools In tho Philippines were
conducting a Protestant propoganda.
No doubt the brotherhoods whoso re
moval our government, with the 'co
operation of many eminent Catholics, Is
urging upon the Vutlcnn, would be glnd
to see a division of American public
opinion on this question, corresponding
with lines of creed, so that the whole
matter would end In a bitter secturlan
quurrel tit home, with nothing done In
tho Philippines.
But 'we feel satisfied that this hope,
if It exists, will not be realized. There
Is no room for It. In tho United States
the Catholic church has every freedom
enjoyed by any other church and Is
prospering even more conspicuously
than most chinches, So It will be In
the Philippines, f the American basis
nhall pie vail. Tho one thing which
could hinder such advancement on Jta
part would be an attitude of resistance
by Its Philippine priesthood to Ameri
can Influences unu methods, und that
is Inconceivable.

Strikes In a rent Britain.
IF IT 19 any consolation to know
that other countries linve labor
troubles also, Inhabitants of the
onlhraclto region will bo Inter
ested In a letter from London in tho
July Protectionist, dealing with strikes
und lock-outs In Great Britain.
In ordinary times, this writer pays,
more than 200,000 workers are annually
Involved. In strikes and lock-outs. In
the pnst ten years, England has had
some 7,000 strikes and lock-outs, In
volving a loss of 103,000,000 days
In all or fourteen days ouch
for every worker In that coun
try. In a hundred years, there
have been seventy big strikes, dis
tributed over large areas. In some de
gree, tho tendency ot labor to appcul
to the strike tribunal seems to be just
now decreasing In Great Britain, but
rather because a number of recent big
strikes were failures than from nn In
creased recognition of the crudity ot
adjudication by force.
li Groat Britain, as' in this country,
the trend of industrial conditions Is
upward, and tho worker of today Is
decidedly better oft than wus his father
or grandfather, comparatively. But
evolution Is of slowgrowth. It cannot
bo hastened. Only through the lifting
of the average fitness, by the education
and development of capable and pro
gressive Individuals wherever these
can be found, can labor expect to make
permanent advances. It cannot lift It
self up by Us bootstraps.
The example of Mrs. JohnGlonn, of
Baltimore, merits notice. Until re
cently, she was one of the leaders of
society. At her marriage last May, In
stead of nn elaborate reception, she
entertained tho poor of the city; and
It Is announced' that she and her hus
band are now studying the best meth
ods of promoting social settlement and
other charitable work, with a view to
applying them in lieu of the social di
versions and dissipations common In
their set. Will not her pleasure be
more genuine than if sought In the
conventionalities of fashion?
Odds and Ends of
Washington N?Ws
Special Correspondence of The Tilbune.
Washington, July 13.
TIE FINAL settlement of tho Holt
will case which has been pending
before the courts of the District of
Columbia since tho summer of 1S94
recalls a story told at the expense of
William Greene Stenet, better known as
"Bill" Sterret, at the time of Judgo Holt's
death. "Bill" Sterret Is a. newspaper
man und a nephew of the late Judge Ad
vocate General Holt, over whoso estate
there wa3 so much wmngllpB. At the
time of Judge Holt's death "Bill" was
the Washington correspondent of the
Dallas-Galveston News. Tho night the
Judge breathed his last "Bill" was en
gaged in a game of poker at the old
Press club of Washington. In thoso days
It was customary for tlio friends of a
man who was known to havo been on
gaged In a game of "draw" the night
before to Inquire: "How much did you
lose last night?" "Bill" remained In tho
game until a very late hour, and knew
nothing about the death of his distin
guished relative until he went borne
along about the break of day, when he
was notified by his family. After eat
ing his breakfast "Bill" naturally called
at tho residence of his deceased uncle,
condoled with tho other relatives, and
then came down town. When ho reached
the club a follow newspaper man, who
had heard of "Bill" being In tho poker
game the night befoie, said:
"Well, Bill, how much did you lose last
night?"
"Oh, about 8 and nn untie," replied
Sterret.
His friends twitted "BUI" a good deal
about his remark, which he afterward
denied most strenuously. "Bill's" share
of Judge Holt's estato amounted to about
$40,000. About 11 vo years ago ho removed
with his family to Dallas, Texas, where
ho built himself a house according to
his own Ideas, and Is now living In that
city. Ho is ono of the best known news
paper wrlteis In the country.
"Pilvate" John Allen, who represented
a Mississippi district in congress for sev
eral ;ears, but who was left at home two
yems ago by his constituents who
thought he was not serious enough to be
u successful legislator, was In Washing
ton a few weeks ago on business con
nected with the St, Louis' exposition.
While In congress John Allen wns known
as "Tho wit of tho house." Dining bis
last visit to Washington ho was dining
with some f i lends at a down town hotel,
Tho hour was lato and the conversation
dragged, "Private" Allen began yawn
ing. Finally ho stretched out (loth arms
and with n long yawn said:
"Well, gentlemen, I must got to my
hotel and go ,to bed, for I havo soma
bind woik lo do In the morning."
Knowing Mr. Allen's aversion to woik
of uny kind ono of tho party said:
"Why, John, what work havo you to
do In the morning'.'"
"Oh," drawled the Mlsslsslpplan, "got
up," i
John Allen cot the title of "Pilvato"
dining his llrst campaign for congress.
His opponent had had the tltlo of "Gen
eral" bestowed upon him by the. Con
federate government during tlio Civil
war. Dm lug tho canvass Allen and his
itvul met In Joint debate. Upon one, oc
casion the "Generul" spoko llrst. lie lold
his hearers how he had sat In his tent
ninny nights dining the struggle bo
twceii tho north nnd south planning bis
campaign against t,ho enemy. This
gavo Jolpi Allen nn opening and when ha
mounted tho platform he referred to what
bis opponent had said about sitting In his
tent. "But what wus Private John Allen
doing nil tho tlmo my distinguished op
ponent was sitting In his tentV" asked
Allen, "I will tell you, gentlemen, lie
was out In all kinds of weather dolus
picket duty, keeping tho emeny from
breaking through our tanks and cap
tut big the general."
This lost lemark caught the crowd and
"Private" John Allen was elected. Since
then ho has borno tho tltlo of "Pilvute"
John Allen. Tho last speech ha. made In
the house- bofoio his retirement fiom
congress was In favor ot tho establish
ment of a fish hatchery at Tupelo, Miss.,
his homo town. It wus one of tho fun
niest speeches bo ever delivered. Tho
hatchery Is now In operation nnd "Prl

Louisiana Purchuso exposition.
There Is a snloop In Washington which

Tho proprietor of tho "store," as bo' Is
prone to call this thirst place, Is .a highly
educated son of Erin. Ho Is also a Dem
ocrat. Dining tho campaigns of ISM
nnd 1900, when Brynn and free silver were
the Icsties, ho was always ready and only
too willing to discuss politics with nny
and all of his sound nloney customers,
nnd It was a mighty good ono who could
hold his own with this Irishman. In ad
dition to keeping on tnp very tine quali
ties of whisky nnd beer ho sorvci it frco
lunch, comprised of cheese, blind rob
bins . or smoked herring, rorned beef,
mustard nnd crackers, which ho never
changes from ono year's end to another.
His patrons sometimes tiro of tlio same
bill of faro tho year round. The othor
dny one of his customers complained of
the sameness of bis lunch and asked
him why ho didn't clmngo It occasionally.
"1 may clmngo my politics nnd religion,

CONNELL FOR SENATOR.
From the llariisburg Star-Independent.
Whether Attorney General Elklu hns
been reconciled to tho political conditions
In the stato or not, It Is reasonably cer
tain that his friends nio not altogether
happy. Homo time ago tho Chester coun
ty Republican convention brought Sena
tor Snyder out for senator In congiess
nnd yesterday, under tho direction of
Deputy Attorney General Flcltz. tho
Lnckawnnnn county Republican conven
tion launched a senatorial boom for Con
gressman Connell. Tho mnntfoHt pur
pose of both movements Is to show u re
sentment ngalti3t tho pait taken by Sen
ator Penrose In the conspiracy to defeat
Elkln's nomination for governor.
Tho candidacy of Senator Snyder prob
ably gavo Quay nnd Penroso little, if any
concern, for though tho president pro
torn, of the stato senate Is a popular gen
tleman nnd a prime favorite among lho
farmers, his ambition hardly takes tho
direction of a scat In tho senate branch
of congress. But In tho candidacy of
Council thero Is it serious menace. That
gentleman has senatorial ambitions, vast
financial resources to hack them and with
a practically unanimous support from tha
northeastern section of tho stato and
tho active asslslanco of Elkln In the
fight, he would bo a most formidable can
didate oven with a less enterprising and
sagacious political manager than Mr.
Fleltz.
Thero Is reason, moreover. In tho can
didacy of Mr. Council, under the circum
stances. Senator Quay mlsht be ox
cusable for advocating tho nomination
of his cousin nnd panegyilst nnd as the
methods employed were those usual to
him there is no kick coinlns on that
account. But the friends of Elkln justlyl
reason that Penrose had no business In
the qunirel nnd being a candidate him
self ought to havo allowca inings to
take their natural course. Therefore
they are justified in putting even so for
midable opposition to Penrose. In tho
senatorial race as Connell nnd in his vic
tory there will be poetic justice.
A FERN THAT WALKS.
Most feins are confirmed travelers. New
fern leaves grow out fiom tho under
ground roots some distance away from
the old plant. Tho average observer
scarcely notices this, but theie Is a na
tive fern that steps off at so lively a pace
that Its odd habit has long furnished one
of tlio unceasing entertainments of the
woods. Tho Walking Fern often carpets
ledges and tops of (.haded locks. Tho
slender, tufted leaf fronds are singularly
unfernllke In appearance. They squirm
about and "walk" by declining their ta
per tips to tho soil and taking root thero
and growing. In time, clusters ot new
leaf fronds spring from such rooted tips.
By-nud-by some of these, too, bite tho
earth and taking root, start still other
colonies, which In tutn will continue the
progress again and again. Naturally,
with the laspso of time, tho connection
between tho older tufts and tho younger
becomes broken, yet ono sometimes finds
series of threo or four linked together,
representing as many steps In the pretty
ramble. Country Life In Amcilca.
SHAKE HANDS WITH FATE.
"lis a sad old world, and a bad old world,
It is scaice worth while at all;
Its sorrows cling and Us friendships sting,
And even its- joys will pall.
But dear Is life for all Its strife,
And love Is better than hate
You'll find a grace In tho surliest face
If you Just shako hands with fate.
With light In jour glance and right .In
your glance
And your lips In a curve to the sky;
A tpiing In your walk nnd a ling In your
talk,
Sure, hope will not pass you by.
Tho path that you will winds over a hill,
But it leads to an open gate;
So trill you a song to lure lovo along,
And Just shake hands with fate,
'TIs In youiself Is the demon elf,
"lis in yourself is God;
And you'll nover stray from yoursolf
away
God's light or tho devil's prod.
Whatever your mind you'll meet In kind.
And what Is youiself create;
Tho world will view what Is really you
Therefoie, shako hands with fate!
