country, are the differences be tween the strikers and the o f ficials such as cannot be arbitrat ed ' There should be a law making arbitration compulsary and to decide whether the griev ances are va'id and need reme dying, then if the case is decided in favor o f the men and the offi cials refuse to afford relief; or on the other hand, if the griev ances are found not valid and the men strike, both should be considered criminal actions. Something has to be done, and done soon, for we are con fronting the danger o f mob rule or rule based on force and not on right and justice. Akin to this is the disgraceful race riot in Omaha, where the mayor of the city w as assaulted and nearly lynched, because he pleaded for law and order. The mob by their inflamed actions showed they were as much ani mated by passion as the black brute himself. In both cases it was an orgy o f lust and crime.

It deserves to be studied and remembered, as it expresses the universality of law, as extending throughout the whole creation, and upon the maintenance of which, the se curity of the universe depends. Human laws may be defective, but as law they are entitled to recognition and allegiance, for if imperfect laws be ignored it. tends to the ignoring o f law al together. Grave responsibility then rests on law makers, lest by putting forth unjust and vicious laws they furnish an excuse to the people for disregarding law. On the other hand those entrusted with the administration o f law should neither l e negligent nor weak in enforcing it in partially, and with as much rapidity as possible. Part of the aftermath of the war is the present popular ap peal to intimidation when griev ances arise. I he- situation in England with its widespread railroad strike and that in our own land, with the steel strike, constitute attacks on the integri ty o f law, as they are not only accompanied by violence but de pend on violence for their elTect- iveness. If these strikes solely related to the railroad or steel executives and their employees, there would be some justification for them. But they involve more than that in that they menace the life, liberty and.the persuit id' happiness of both the English and American people.
