ftf the convention, and the progress of tills great labor organization is a true I* gauge of the fu3.va.nce of organized labor. a. President Frank Farrlngton, of Illinois, a visitor, in his address yesterday, said a few things which the tnlners can well take to heart. He faid, deservedly or not, an Impression i Is abroad that the miners make up the radical sort of citizen, and that they fcf* a class which is easily swayed by radical doctrines and new cults and

Isms which come along. He said that this opinion of the miners as a class exists and cannot be denied.

Mr. Farrington's point was that the tniner should stand true to his labor Organization, that he should hold aloof from half-baked and false ideas as to .movements which promise to make the world over In a day, and that ea'ch tnember of the district should do what lie could to correct the impression that group of miners is a good breeding place for a nest of bolshevism, communism,, I.

THE MINERS' CONVENTION.

I|f-" Terr® Haute always welcomes the IN district miners' convention. Each sesI aion Is an Important reflection of the of labor Interests at the time

it in foolish theories of so-called

-revolution. Some of those who wotilfl lead the union man from his principles use tacl^ticf and arguments at times which would lead to the suspicion that they J«re wilfully and maliciously engaged

In propaganda to undermine the labor ^movement. The Tribune believes that some of the attacks on Mr. Gompers :i from men who called themselves labor leaders not only have been Inspired, but have been fostered and paid for by |i enemies of union labor.

Speaking for Terre Haute and the ^district mine officials, it can be said that they have been a medium here for well balanced direction of labor affairs, they have given of their services to expedite settlements of questions which have arisen in other crafts, and they have been ft wholesome influence

In social conditions. It will be an 111 day when the miners

A Ch!cagoan, writing to the Chicago Tribune, after a visit to the soldiers' hospital at Fort Benjamin Harrison to see his wounded son, made a pertinent observation It would be well for those who are trying to make political capital out of their opposition to the league of nations on the alleged ground of Americanism to bear in mind. He wrote: ''There are about 1,000 wounded soldiers (in the Fort Benjamin Harrison hospital) who saw service overseas. While there, I heard enough—from the wounded soldiers—to convince me that any man In public life who takes A stand against the proposed league of nations will most assuredly be retired to private life. All the wounded men with whom I talked feel thai the president is trying to do something for humanity. They know what war really is, and are anxious for universal peace.

repudiate such leadership as that of Mr. Farringtotl, Mr. Stewart, Mr. Mitch and the men who have brought District No. 11 to Its present place of eminence In the labor world.

Too, it can be said that the miners take keen pleasure In the report of the secretary OS the^ large number of miners from this district who went to the defense of their flag. A miner risks his life every day for his family. Ho was Just as ready to see his country through. The total of men in the service is something District No. 11 can cherish as long as it holds a charter.

Talk to the soldiers, more es

THE VERY NEXT THING*

Everyone is anxiously awaiting news from Washington of definite plans for solving the railroad problem. There is no longer any doubt of the roads being returned to their owners. The wave of enthusiasm for government ownership that once pervaded congress haa virtually disappeared.

The railroads are as important to the country's success for the reconstruction period as they were to the government's successful prosecution of the war. A definite constructive program is essential for their future. Whatever plan is adopted to meet the needs of this unusual and most serious of all economic problems of today is important to every citizen.

The country is enjoying greater prosperity than has ever been known. Wages are high, the per capita circulation of money has been increasing almost from month to month, hanks have been recording larger deposits than they have enjoyed in the past, and prices of goods are holding well up to the top levels reached before the armistice. Add to this rosy picture of the domestic outlook the enormous demand for everything America makes or

grows coming from devastated Europe, and South America, as well as from jnany other parts of the world, and one easily understands why reports from all sources indicate feeling of remarkable optimism.

It is, therefore, not difficult to fathom the cause of the general feeling of unrest caused by the uncertainty of the railroads' future. Th® service they give is essential to the success of every other line of economic endeavor. And, not only because their securities are considered largely a basis of credit and, therefore, should be kept sound, but also because of the vast need of ample transportation facilities, the railroad problem should be settled as soon as possible. There is reason to believe from present indications that the matter will be adjusted on a basis which will prove Just and satisfactory to all concerned. That the country generally believes this to be true is reflected In the strength of the rails In the security markets for several weeks past.

LEAGUE LOGIC*

That the idea of the personal responsibility of kings and princes for warfare In an old one is seen In the custom of single combat, whereby the heads of the nations or selected valiant warriors were matched in mortal fray to fight out between themselves the issue of their quarrels. This was not a general or a signally successful method of avoiding international conilicts. Nevertheless it shows that at all times there has been popular revolt at the idea that the heads of state should force Into bloody fray their hapless populations for the ends of dynasty and political ambition.

Henpe, if the kaiser were not tried and If there were not some such expression of popular revulsion there would come presently a revolt against nil heads of states who should seek to project wars. Mr. Lloyd George points to the league of nations as the hopeful experiment by which In the future wars may be avoided, and says that if it shall serve this end only for a generation It will be well worth while. He says that had there been a league of nations Germany and Austria would have experienced difficulty in bringing about the most awful war in all history, and If it had occurred notwithstanding the league the United States would have been in it the first day Instead of two years after.

If the league of nations survives a generation it would survive many generations should there be no league of nations there will be a league of peoples. The vast international movements afoot will effectuate this end. Labor will simply become internationalized and say there shall be no wars. Socialism will Join In such an expression. And there will be no wars. In case wars should in fact be projected the terrorists would rise and bring about international revolution. This is as plain as a pipestem, and really there are millions of perfectly sane
