The London Conatv Coaoeil ia considering toe. question of water supply is eon fronted with a problem tbe proper* tions of which eaa hardly bo exaggerated. London, or the metropolitan district, already bee a population of nearly six millions. What will the population be fifty years hence? If the seme rate ef increase ip maintained that prevailed during the lost decade tbe population in 1941 will be over 17,600,000. If the rate should be only that given by the natural iacreaee of births ever deaths, the population would be nearly etc ran millions; and if the aggregate vain for each decade to 1941 should only be just the Mine ai daring the deeede endiav in 1891 the popu-

Tbe

Spectator believes that “unices some terrible disaster happen., the 17,500,000 cut mate is more likely to be the true one.” The Spectator m fortified in this belief by tbe fact that all estimates in tbe past of London's prospective growth have fallen short ef the reality. A eummUsion studying the water supply question in 1869 thought the time would be “very remote” when the population of London would bo 4,500.000 or 5,009,009. Already it ie nearly six mtllioos. In 1851 the population of England and Wales was

half millions. The London of the future, therefore, may have within a radius of •even and a half miles of Charing Cross as many people as all England had io the year ef the great exhibition. London is already, doubtless, tbe most populous city the world has ever seen. But think of it fifty yean hence, with three times its present numbers. Ths Spectator concludes its speculations regarding the London of the future with these words: “So far as we know there ia only one thing, excepting war and famine, that is likely to arrest the growth of London, and that is tbe adoption of a polioy of genuine free trade in the United States, in Canada, and in Australia. If that were to happen the trade of those countries would be very much increased, and with that inorease would come a demand for immigration thither. That demand would suck away oar population et a rate which would astonish the statisticians. Ths artisans would follow the tredo across - tho Atlantio as they now follow it aoross England.” Ae to Arbitration. Ur. L. J. Coppage, in a thoughtful communication, which we publish in another column, raises many doubts touching the feasibility of arbitration aa B method of settling controversies between employers and employed. Many of the objections which he raises have undoubtedly much force. , But they are objections rather to the system of compulsory arbitration proposed by some tban to the kind of arbitration that The Ni*ws has been urging. Take the case at Homestead, for example. Here is one>t the greatest and most efficient steel mills in the world. It employe nearly four thousand men, a considerable percentage of whom are •killed laborers. All the laborers have been engaged in the works for some length of time. It ia fair to assume that in most cases they are picked men, that they represent a survival of the fittest, or natural selection. They are the beat men, in a general way, for the places they fill. They gradually come to look upon their plaoee as permanencies, purchase lots, baild homes, beeorue thoroughly identified with the community. They are interested in the success of the work*—they have a “stake” in them, as tbe Englieh would say. Their everyday speech testifies of this, for they boast of what w* are doi^jg^at our shops. This feeling of permanttiicy, of loyalty, le a good thing not only for the men but also for the masters. The masters know this and wisely foster it. They help tbe men to buy homes, carry their mortgagee, inrest their money for them. Masters and meu show their interest in the success and welfare of one another. They become members, so to say, of one great industrial family. Now, if this is all true, they ought to be forbearing one toward another. What is beet for one tide is best for the other in the long run. The men do not want to Iom their places. The masters do not want to lose their men. If the men roally leave, they will, usually, be loser* in Belling their houses, iu moving to other towns, in time lost while seeking for suitable positions. The master*, on the other hand, will lose in taking on new men, unfamiliar with the machinery or just the kind of work the mills are doing. The old process of natural selection must be gone through with aeaiu, and it will be months, or years perhaps, before the works are running as smoothly and effectively aa they were under the old oouditioos. It is, therefore, to the interest at both parties to settle any family differences that may arise, so that they may continue to live aad to work amicably and amiably together. We are not saying that tbe law should step in and say to them, in ease of a quarrel over wages, or hours, or other conditions, you must submit to arbitration. That would curtail the freedom of contract to the disadvantage of both men and mestere. It would create new and very complex legal machinery, and quite new ways of leaking at the relations of laborers and capitalists, for which society ia not yet ready—if it ever shall be. The point we urge, however, is that, where it is so manifestly to the benefit of both parties to a controversy to arrive at s a mutually satisfactory understanding, there is a moral obligation on both, strengthened by tho mandate of common mom and eclf-interest, to strive by nil means to avoid a breach—to endeavor by conciliation, by gentleness, by self-sac rift e even, to heal tho breach if it can not be avoided. Therefore, we have said that, ia our opinioa, the wIm and sensible thing et Homestead ia Jane was arbitration if the family differencee could not be settled by those that differed. We think thht ia the wise and sensible thine now— wiM mad sensible for the men who want their aid places, wiM aad sensible for the ewaers, for whoa the ^14 mea eaa

For on* thing ft doolorse that tbe great fight between organized labor and organized capital la at hand. This may bo tree or false. The sireificaaeo of it Is that it is recognized ns tree by organized labor. Thte te one of th* IMnge that has com* out of •‘Homestead." Tho oddrem has, however, a specific object, which is to rally the organized labor of the State to. tho support of on effort to induce the next Legislature to pam a law similar to oae that exists In Ohio, making it n misdemeanor, punishable with fin* or' imprisonment, or both, in the diseretioa of tbe coart, for any employer to prevent aa employe from belonging to a lawful labor organization, or to threaten or coerce him ia any way from such membership. For oarselvae, we believe such a law is pertinent, and serves nothing ill. In fatrwem, labor has a right to combine, for capital combines. Bat if capital did not combine, labor divided could not meet it on equal terms. It ie an iniringement, ww think, of liberty and tbe pursuit of happiness to restrict a man in such things, the organization being lawful. This oddrem proposes to go at tbe matter in the right way. Labor bos been told time oat of mind that it has the ballot aad can make its i grievances known thereby, and thereby | right its wrongs in a peaceable and lawinl wsy.

Bat now, twenty-eight years after Lee’s sarrender, when the monament is nearing completion, and after the people of Indiana have paid taxes toward iu erection, in a sum of about 9350,000, comes the Indian-

How do tbe good people who met on Tippecanoe battle-field some weeks ago and decorated tho non-motinmeoted graves of the heroes wbo fell on that famous spot regard the Indianapolis Journal's ignoble aspersions? True, not all those deeping in thoM non-moQumeuted graves for many decades past were the sons of Indiana; however, most of them were.

When the Indianapolis Journal oomee to writ* the obituary ot the gallant old warrior, General Mansoa, of Crawferdsville— may God long postpone the day—what can it tell of hie gallantry on many fields in Mexico when it recalls its shameless words quoted above? Will it say: "Nobody thinks about Mansoo’t services in Mexico, or nobody of this generation knows or cares anything about Menton or the Mexican Far, for he did nothing in it worthy of commemoration.” Indiana furnished about nine thousand troops for the war with Mexico, and, save the “incident” at Buena Vista, they were a gallant body of soldiers, and deserved better tban a cruel insult at the hands of the Indianapolis Journal, for the reason that in this year A. D. 1892, it is proposed to freely remember their services by a brief inscription on the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument that the taxpayers of Indiana have been called upon to

erect at the cost of $350,000.
