HIGHK8 AND WII-SOX.
It should now be quite evident, to
tliase who have questioned it, that
Mr. Hughes has definite and positive
opinions and that he does not seek y groupg now gtand ,ow ,n the judg;
ment of civilization.
Socialists stand agast at the col-
Spokane Spokesman-Review.
This old world of ours is a painful
ly practical old place. That truth
spells woe for socialism.
A nation at war or on the verse of
war and in the throes of making it
self militarily fit requires all the loy
alty and all the capacities of cooper
ation that exist in its classes and
sections, in order to be able to save
the possessions to which experience
and the test of time and wear hava
It deserves to
go hard theu and goes hard actually
with those who are dissatisfied with
the household called country and sug
gest burning it themselves or letting
somebody else commit arson.
This is the situation of socialism
among the nations, of syndicalism, of
nonpatriotic internationalism, of all
social firms of limited liability which
set themselves above the nation and
the welfare of the country. It ex
plains why all these forms of action
Ml TAKE A CHANCE
for softly padded words in which to
express them. His message of ac
ceptance bf the nomination indicated
a belief that lanquage is made to re-
real thought, cot to conceal It, and
bis communication to the Progress
ives is made up of plain words that
say what they are meant to say. No
man can misunderstand them. There
re no rhetorical flights that dazzle
the eye and leave the mind bewilder
ed. Some of the Democratic papers
have been saying that Hughes is a
man of the same type as Wilson, so
why change? Nothing could be far
ther from the truth. Theirs is the dif
ference T)etween strength and weak
ness, between decision and indecision,
between courage and timidity. Mr.
Hughes has shown by his entire ca
reer that he will decide what is right
to "be done, and then do it, promptly.
Mr. Wilson has shown neither the
power of decision or of action.
"The most serious difficulties the
present administration has encoun
tered," says Mr. Hughes in his mes
sage to the Progressives, "have been
due to its own weakness and incer
titude." That is the conviction of all
Americans whose minds are not
swayed by partisan bias. And Mr.
Hughes points out the evidences of
that "weakness and incertitude" in
the long list cf outrages against
American and Americans cited in the
note to Mexico of Jane 20, a series of
crime extending over three years, to
which no self-respecting nation
should submit for a moment. That
series has reached the height of diab
olism if the massacre of Carrizal, and
still wf are temporizing. Is it con
ceivable that we would have been in
our present position, with a man in
the White House having a proper
conception of international duties
and national rights, with the firmness
to perform the one and to demand
the other? There would have been
no war, and no occasion for war. Nor
would the difficulty with Germany
have been so long drawn out and so
irritating. Mr. Hughes indicates what
his course would ahve been when the
warning notices in regard to the Lus
itania were published. He would
have issued a warning of his own.
Therein is the fruit of the difference
between the two men. Hughes would
act; Wilson would temporize. Do we
want a man of action, or a man of in
action for our president? St. Louis
Globe-Democrat.
lapse of their creed under the pres
sure of nationality and patriotism.
They question whether socialist in
ternationalism can ever be resuscitat
ed. Still more perplexing and con
founding is the paralysis of sets of
socialists. Efforts to prolong the dis
tinctions between class and class have
failed in every European country at
war. In the United States the stress
of Americanism bears equally hard
upon endeavors to conserve antagon
isms between classes.
The New Review, an American or
gan of international socialism, states
that in Canada socialist activities
have almost entirely ended. Want
of support for socialist papers has
caused them to stop publication. The
membership of the socialist and so
cial-democratic parties of Canada has
dropped almost to half of what it was
three years ago.

were unnatural and I felt miserable

MR. GREELEY'S SCORE
In former years the doctor and
sometimes the undertaker was called
in for full duty on the Fourth of July.
Since the adoption of a "safe and
sane" Fourth, the maimed fingers,
loss of arms and legs, burnt faces and
singed hair have been considerable
less in number. And patriotism is
Just as rife among our people as it
was in the good old days.
Measured by influence and fame,
Horace Greeley was, no doubt, the
greatest American editorial writer,
It is agreeable to reflect that he was
wrong in his opinions about half the
time. He wished, instead of fighting
the Civil War, to let the Southern
States seceede and set up for them
selves, saying he hoped "neve:1 to live
in a republic whereof one -half was
pinned to the other by bayonets."
What a smashing phrase! On paper
it is fairly unanswerable; for what
could be more absurd theoretically
than a free government with one-half
coercing the other half to stay in
when it wants to get out?
All the same, in fact, the pinning
with bayonets proceeded, and almost
everybody now approves it. But only
a churlish soul could count up against
Horace that he was wrong then. Half
the time he was right and when
wrong he wrote a corking sentence.
To be right half the time and emin
ently worth reading when wrong'.
What a record for the envy and des
pair of lesser followers of his trade!
His may be called a perfect score;
and perfection happens only once In
a generation or two. Saturday Eve

it in connection with farming. Mr.
Peck has, at various times, been a

Inquiry or
n
OIK
Faced by demands from the conductors, engineers, firemen and brakemen
that would impose on the country an additional burden in transportation costs of
$100,000,000 a year, the railroads propose that this wage problem be settled by
reference to an impartial Federal tribunal.
Witlv these employes, whoseyefficient service is acknowledged, the railroads
have no differences that could not be considered fairly and decided justly by such
a public body. - ,
Railroads Urge Public Inquiry and Arbitration
The formal proposal of the railroads to the employes for the settlement of '
the controversy is as follows:
"Cur conferences have demonstMted that w cannot harmoniie our differences of opinion and that eventuall tht
matters in controversy must be passed upon by other and disinterested agencies. Therefore, we propose that you'
proposals and the proposition of the railways be disposed of by one or the other of the following methoda: '
1. Preferably bv submission to the Interstate Commerce Commission, the only tribunal which, by reason of its
accumulated information bearing on railway condiiions and its control of the revenue o the railways ia in a Dosi
tion to consider and protect the rights and equities of all the interests affected, and to provide additional revenue
necessary to meet the added cost of operation in case your proposals are found by the Commission to be just and
reasonable; or, in the event the Interstate Commerce Commission cannot, under existing law,, act in the premises
that we )om.,y request Congress to take such action as may be necessary to enable the Commission to consider and ' 4
promptly dispose of the questions involved; or
2. By arbitration in accordance with the provisions of the Federal law" (The Newlands Act).
Leaders Refuse Offer and Take Strike Vote
Leaders of the train service brotherhoods, at the joint conference held in New
York, June 1-15, refused thes offer of the railroads to submit the issue to arbitration
or Federal review, and the employes are now voting on the question whether
authority shall be given these leaders to declare a nation-wide strike.
The Interstate Commerce Commission is proposed by the railroads as the
public body to which this issue ought to be referred for these reasons:
No other body with such an intimate knowidge
of railroad conditions has such. an unquestioned posi
tion in the public confidence.
The rates the railroads may charge the public for
transportation are now largely fixed by this Govern
ment board.
Out of every dollar received bv the railroads from
the public nearly one-half ia paid directly to the em
ployes as wages; and the money to pay increased wages
can come from no other aource than the ritei paid
by the public. r
The Interstate Commerce Commission, with iti con
trol over rates, is in a position to make a complete
investigation and render such decision as would pro
tect the interests of the railroad employea, the owners
of the railroads, and the public.
