Never can tell what moment an accident is going to happen.

The Public and the Strike.

In his address to the coal operators and the representatives of the miners at the first conference President Roosevelt drew attention to the fact that there were three parties involved in the contest the employers, the employed and the public. The struggle va conducted by methods which involved suspension of production and a scarcity of fuel, very seriously affecting public interests. The president did not propose that the third party should be forgotten. He intervened not in the exercise of official authority, but effectively, the event shows, as the representative of that party, and emphasized the fact that the public had interests, if not legal rights, in the strictest sense, which must not be ignored or trampled upon. As the matter now stands the questions at issue as to the rights and claims of the two contending parties are to be decided by a tribunal which is universally regarded as singularly able and impartial. The passive third party the public; is in a fair way to obtain relief if the dealers, from the operators down, are actuated at once by public spirit and enlightened selfinterest. But this passive third partv has learned some things which should put it in the way of securing more lasting benefits by depriving monopoly of the shelter of law in the practice of extortion and insisting on the enforcement of wholesome laws made for the protection of society against corporate rapacity. "Furthermore, the strike has served to bring to the knowledge of everybody the fact that the men who are presidents and managers of the railroads which carry anthracite coal from the mines and at the same time are operators of the mines are habitual and incessant violators of the constitution of the state of Pennsylvania. It has also served to make everybody aware of the fact that these men, actmg in the double capacity of common carriers and producers of the most important of the commodities carried by them: are habitual and incessant violators of two laws of congress the interstate commerce law and antitrust law. Now that these things are brought to the knowledge of all by the strike the passive third party has a right to expect that those officials, state and national, who profess anxiety to conserve the interests of that party will proceed at once and with all energy to enforce the constitution "of Pennsvl?ania and the laws- of the United States. Chicago Chronicle. A Crisis is Reached. Senator Vest, of Missouri, one of the most prominent democratic leaders in the United States, is opposed to operating the coal mines by the government. He says if the coal mines can be taken in order to put coal upon the market for sale to the people at reasonable prices, then the same thing can be done as to lead, copper, timber, lands and any other private property. "In other words, the government could interfere in any case where the people were suffering for any commodities, and the result might be that the Ur.ited States would control every interest in the country absolutely. This is certainly was not intended by the f ramers of the constitution, and is especially in opposition to the doctrines taught by Mr. Jefferson, which were antagonistic to centralization of nower in the general government. "The fact is, we are approaching that era in our history where a crisis has been reached as to whether Mr. Jefferson's theory of the government, which was based upon the idea that the people were capable of self-government and that the rights of the states should be respected, is correct, or the doctrine that government should be a' strong, centralized o'ne..controlled by force, rather than by public opinion. . "This1 may he stating the case crudely, but the general proposition is as I havs put it. The statesman who 4 can originate some legislation which will" compromise the present antagonism between labor and capital will( live in history as the greatest benefactor of our country. If partisan success is to govern the matter, no compromise is possible; for both parties will look entirely to the effect of legislation, upon coming elections, and, with the enormous power on one hand and the vote of the wage earners on the other, the pendulum will swing in the direction deemed necessary to obtain success at the polls." Politics and Judicial Office, We have naver been able to see why a man's politico should be a controlling factor in his selection for the bench. What the community, wants Is not good republican judges or . democratic judges but just good judges. It ought to want the best judges that it can get. Wise men, it seems to us, when they come to vote for the judicial candidatesshould leave political considerations apart and vote for the men that are best qualified by experience, knowledge and temperament for the work of the bench.

The magnificent success of Miss Rives' new novel, "Hearts Courageous," must be ascribed .to much more than the inspiring title or the beautiful binding and illustrations.

The reviewers hail it as a great American story, wherein is found skillful character study, unusual literary merit and true historical atmosphere.
