No Settlement in Sight.
PRESIDENT BAKU'S public re
ply to the Intercession of
Senators Quay and Penrose
puts an end to the rumors of
an. early settlement of the strike. It
shows that the attitude of the opera
tors is inflexible. "The wages paid
when the strike was ordered will bo
resumed when the men return to work,
and all strikers who have been innocent
of crime will be taken back without
discrimination and local grievances
considered and adjusted. But the op
erators through Mr. Buer refuse point
edly to admit the strike leaders to a
partnership in the management pf an
thracite mining and leave no hope that
any outside Influence can Induce or
compel them to recall or modify this
determination. In other words,, the
situation is just where it was and
prophecies of early peace are discred
ited. The two Pennsylvania senators act
ed In the lino of public duty In exhaust
ing their power to effect an immediate
settlement. That they Have not ac
complished more Is not their fault. At
least one result of their intercession
will have definite value. They have
supplied an opportunity for a final
public understanding that the issue is
to bo fought to an end. From this time
onward, Intercession can servo no use
ful purpose save to awaken In the
minds of the miners futile hopes and
lead to needless disappointment. The
strike will doubtless slowly wear itself
out. All talk of forcible Intervention
by the state may be dismissed as hav
ing no substantial foundation. Such
intervention is not feasible.
The peace of Din-yea appears to have
been guarded not wisely but too well.

A variety of morals may be drawn

Commissioner Wright's Report.
THE SEVEN conclusions or
recommendations, offered by
Labor Commissioner Wright
fc ns a result of his study of
the anthracite labor situation are all
reasonable, conservative and sound,
Wo do not see how any fair-minded
man can object to one of them. They
In effect call for a new miners' union,
to bo made up, ofllcered nnd controlled
by antfjraclto men; a union financially
responsible' In uny contract enteivd
upon; it union, furthermore, pledged to
non-lnterfetence- with non-union men;
this union to namo, with the operators,
a Joint conciliation board, to Investi
gate thoroughly milling conditions unci
to try $11 grievances, u two-thirds vote
to be flecislvo. For company hands a
nine-hour day, it least experimentally;
the uniform adoption of a ton price fur
jnlnlngcoal, with check welghmen; and
term contracts with tho unon theg
are the concessions lecomtnendcd to the
ooerators.
Conditioned upon the union's being
what Mr. Wright outlinea-i-and nothing
in his outline Is impossible of achieve
ment by the-men we should thiols that
I
the operators would snatch at the nrst
available chance to come lo such a
basis of hotter understanding with the
labor In the mine fields and to put their
Industiy back on a peace basis. A
union or some rornt belnrr Inevitable,
and opposition to one by tlio operators
simply furnishing encouragement to Its
worst tendencies, why should not com
mon sense summon the operators to
help 'to construct, with the sensible
and conservative elements ntnonir 'the
miners, a union that will be a guaran
tee of better mutual conditions?
We have never hud a doubt that the
hard cont situation would come to this
ultimately. Whether such a basis of
sensible understanding and fair deal
ing on both sides can come through
present compromise or through recon
struction after a thorough disciplining
of mischief-making elements Is a prob
lem not so euslly solved. It Is by no
means certain that premature conces
sions by tho operators would be best
for the real welfare of tho miners
themselves, considering It In tho long
run. There are two kinds of strikers.
One kind Is thoughtful, . conservative,
Intelligent and long-suffering; the other
Is quarrelsome, rabid, Ignorant' and
often uncontrollable. Until It Is as
sured that the first kind are In com
mand of tho situation compromise,
being easily misinterpreted, would be
hazardous to every substantial inter
est represented In our valley, the
miner's included.
What tho public wants and what it
hns a right to demand is peace and
prosperity In the coal fields. This does
not mean perpetual Irresponsible agi
tation any more thnn It means unfulr
treatment of tho miners by the com
panies. It meuns, above all, unquali
fied guarantee of tho rights of property
and the right to work without arbi
trary Interference. It means intelligent,
conservative and judicious unionism
met halfway by humane operators, the
two not trying to gouge and malm each
other and the Innocent public, but to
work in harmony for tho benefit of all
concerned. Commissioner Wright in
our judgment has outlined a workable
plan by which such a condition can be
approximated; it remains to be seen
what shall be done with it.
Tho prominent men who have been
deputized to settle the strike are be
coming almost as numerous as tho citi
zens of fame enjoying, perfect health
through tho agency of patent medi
cines. Jay 'Cooke's Prediction.
CCORDING t Jay Cooke, tho
present prosperity will con-,
tinue "so long ns the Ameri
-atTJall
can people ares true to protec
tion." He adds: .
"The natural wealth of the country
Is vast, there are still great areas un
cultivated, great storehouses of power
yet undeveloped. With stable condi
tions the steady tide of wealth will
rise. Some things I achieved in my
life which are remembered, and these
I achieved because I had perfect faith
that the American people would estab
lish and cling to thcprlnciples that
have made tho nation industrially
great. My belief was justified. It has
been my fortune to see the country
grow. I went to St. Louis, as a boy 6f
sixteen, when It had a population of
7,500, and Chicago was still Fort Dear
born, and a few shanties. I came to
Philadelphia in 1S3S. Its population
was 223,000, while that of New York
was only 163,000. My father obtained
the first charter for a railroad granted
anywhere In the world, and I have had
something to do with nearly every rail
road since built in the United States.
Therefore the wonderful progress we
have made unrolls itself before my
memory as a great panorama, and
when I see the steady growth, the
magnificent ndvance,xI cannot but he
Heve that the nation Is destined to
greater things, r know something of
our undeveloped resources, and I re
pent that few of us have yet grasped
the possibilities that lie before us."
The American people will remajn
"true to protection." They have no
wish to kick over the ladder by which
they rose.
The military team practice up on the
New England coast Indicates that
Uncle Sam's forces are prepared to
make a good showing any time if chal
lenged to a game upon the home
grounds. ,
Who Wants a Change?

J
ULY 21, 1S97, the DlngleyTirotect-
ive tariff became a law five
years ago, The following are
some of the resultant and con
tinuing benefits. None but those who
will not see can v say, "Dive us a
change!"
There are a quarter of n million
stockholders and over a million em
ployes who would assert that the Ding
ley law had proved of greatest benefit
to tho railroads of the country, and
their claim could bo well substantiated.
There are over $200,000,000 In wages be

During tho last slx,months there was
not a single railroad, for which a re
ceiver was appointed and continued,
and "the outlook Is only 'obscured' by
lack of locomotlvesj and freight curs.

Prosperity.
(For Tho Tribune, by Waller J. Ballard,)
,Tho present position of tho Demo
crats In their hunt for a lender nnd an
Issue, l.i uptly pictured In tho following
Hues from an old English poet:
"Poor and Baalim
Forsake their temples dim
With that twico battered god of Pales
tine." "Tho quest for trado Is an Incentlvo
to men of business to dovlso, invent, Im
prove and economise In the cost of pro
duction. Business life, whether among
ourselves or with other peoples, Is over
a sharp struggle for buccoss. It will bo
nono the leas so In the future. Without
competition we would bo clinging to tho
clumsy and antiquated processes of
farming nnd manufacture, und the
methods of business of long ugo, and tho
twentieth would bo no further advanced
than tho eighteenth century. Bui though
commercial competitors wo are, com
mercial enemies we must not be." W'll
llnm McKlnlcy.
Trade figures on all sides testify to the
value of Republican policies and con
trol. Tnko the Southern Pacific Rail

Gross earnings, 1893, Democratic. $17,114,791
Gross earning, 1902, Republican.. 37,712,248

This Increase Is equal to over 120 per
cent. For tho latter year. 1902, tho net
gain over 1895 was $2,700,000, equal to 302
per cent.
Within the past two months contracts
for building $10,000,000 worth of new ves
sels have been given to tho various yards
along our Inland seas, all of which, with
one or two exceptions, being duo to bo
completed for next season's work. In no
section of tho country Is merchant ship
building being prosecuted with such vigor
ns upon tho Great Lakes, and nowliere Is
there greater prosperity. If our ocean
marine has dwindled down to a point
whero it Is conspicuously Insignificant
thcro has been no deterioration upon tho
Great Lnltes. Shipping there is enor
mous and Is unique among the commerce
of the world, and what Is best of all It
is all ours." And It Is even more gratify
ing to know that our shipbuilders do all

Tho largest cargo of Iron ore over taken
out of Two Harbors, on Lake Superior,
was loaded thero on August 12 on tho big
steel barge John Smcnton. it .consisted
of 7,033 gross tons, or 7,571 net tons.
"I do declare there has never been a
revision of tho tariff In tho Interest of

not proven ns fatal to business a3 the

of tho St. Lous and San Francisco rail
road. Tho market's foundation is absolutely
sound and rests upon the only real corner
stone the only new wealth ever credited
"A bountiful harvest."
Tho granger roads are apt to feel the
effects of tbts new wealth first, as the
western farmers will discount tho well
filled barns by purchasing both necessar
ies and luxuries far In ndvaneo of the
snlo of their crops. The shrowoest
financiers see In this factor the greatest
bull argument, as they Insist that we
shall make the first payments for crops
to the west with manufactured goods In
stead of cash to a larger degree than
over In our history. Dally Financial

James H. Eckels, president of the Com
mercial Nationnl bank of Chicago, says
that reports received from correspond
ents demonstrate very clearly that tho
crop condition of tho country, as they
now nre, warrant tho belief that tho
country Is to have an unusually large
yield of corn, wheat, oats, flax, cotton
and hay; that general business conditions

THE ANNUAL PARODY.
Maud Mullcr (gentle render, hero
Is tho parody that comes each year).
Maud Mullcr, on a summer's eve, ,
Pinned back her skirt and tucked each
sleeve.
Sho fot the hoso upon tho lawn
And deftly turned tho water on.
Sho sprinkled gayly on tho grass,
And smiled on those who chanced to pass.
Tho Judge camo walking down tho street,
And spied Miss Mullcr, trim and neat.
Ho raised his hat to speak to her,
Ills heart with lovo began to stir;
For Maud was ycung and fair to see,
The Judge was rich as rich could be.
Just when he made his graceful bow
Tho water did not twist somehow;
It did not smlto him on tho ear;
It did not fill his soul with fear;
It did not swat him In the vest
And knock his garments galleywcst;
It did not wash him from tho spot
No, gentle reader, It did not.
Instead, Maud turned tho water off
Just when his hat received tho doff.
The Judgo mused softly:
Is the Ideal wife for me.'
"Such as she
And Maud mused: "I'll change my name
By springing this domestic game."
Tho Judge proposed the rest you guess
Maud Mullcr lost no time with "Yes."
And 'often now tho Judge will dream
Of how the setting sun's last glcanf
Illumined Mnudle, with the hose,
And how his ardor swiftly rose.
And Ma mile, too, dreams of the eve "
When, with tucked skirt and rollcd-up
sleeve,
Sho utilized her cunning tact
And engineered tho lawn-hoso act,
And posed thcro in tho twlllcht dim,
And with deft science landed him.
Of all true words of tongue or pen
The truest are: "They fool the men."
