Justice Prevails. ?
It required the mandate of a Federal court to bring* the mine
striker*' officials fo their senses. -The injunction ought not to have
been necessary. The President's statement should have been the
law of the land for the miners Mr. Lewis and his fellow offices
have done the working men of the coal fields a great service by
showing respect for the law. We believe that practically all of the
miners are law abiding, and wish to act in all matters within the law.
It would have been serious, indeed, if Mr. Lewis and the other
officials had elected to go to jail, instead of calling"off the strike.
The spectacle would have been bad. It would not have made martyrs
of them for the reason that the American people, first of all respect
the judiciary.
The hrmncas 01 the Department of Justice in dealing with the
strike situation, re-establishes confidence in the government. At
torney General Palmer laid out a plain program It meant establish
ment of public order
The speed with which the machinery for arbitration is being 'put
in running order by the Secretary of Labor guarantees a "jTroper
tribunal for the settlement of the differences between the miners and
the; operators. If eifher side refuses to accept the good offices of the
administration, in settling all questions pertaining to wages and
hours, and working conditions, the one that refuses will have neither
the sympathy nor respect of the people.
Organized labor lost nothing by the withdrawal of the strike
order. In fact, it gained. American labor, as a whole, has shkwn
respect for the courts, and the action by the miners' leaders only re
affirms the attitude of labor in the past. ?
Radical leadership received a death blow. Henceforth, the chiefs
of labor unions must keep within -th> bounds of law and reason. The
power of the government, through the Federal courts, has been
clearlv proved. There should have been no occasion for the issuance
of the injunction. If Mr. Lewis and his associates had shown the
same calm reasoning before November 1, that they have shown in
the past twenty-four hours, they would have been spared th? humilia
tion that now faces them from their men and the people.
Justice and right will prevail.
The suggestion that the Senate go into secret session is good. It
would cut speeches to a minimum, give Senators an opportunity to
say what they really think, ant1 save the public's nerves.
A member of Russia's Red army gets three times as much to eat
"as a mere private citizen, and that, doubtless, explains why there are
few conscientious objectors in Lenine's territory.
When a car driver quits the road and tries to climb a telephone
pole in these arid times people are willing to admit that the fault
may have been with the steering gear.
Howdy, Mr. Prince!
America is big enough to properly welcome prince or peasant.
Some persons are trying to make capital out of the attentions we
are showing the Prince of Wales. It is mostly political capital.
"N The prince is heir apparent to a very democratic job of ruling.
Once a king, he really will exercise less power than one of our State
governors. He comes from an old and respected family.
England has honored our private citizens who previously had
held office-?Grant and Roosevelt?so there really is nothing out of
the way in our paying official respect to one of England's citizens
vho is going to hojj) office.
Washington welcomes the young prince. We believe he will
>arn much here as to democracy that will help him and his people
when he becomes an executive.
Let's show him a good time.

They have captured the last of Zapata's rebel army, and now
everything is quiet in Mexico except for the several million other
-ebels.
A good citizen is one that has a conviction that his own particular
rask and duty are the only things in the world that really matter.
Your present prosperity isn't worth two whoops, old-timer, un
less you salt down some of the surplus.
The worst feature of a high-old time is the low-down feeling the
next day.

RIVALS SUNDAY
IN HER POSES
Lady Aslor Hits Sawdust Trail
When Her Anger Is
Aroused.
?
Plymouth. England. Nov. 11.?
The declaration of Mr. Gay, labor
candidate, that tt\e Lady Astor's
campaign was a "iftere circus pro
cession" and that Mr. Foot, liberal
candidate, was the only candidate
be recognised as an honorable op
ponent. ha3 raised Lady Nancy's
American fighting spirit. While
her opponents were^ lapsing into |
personal attack Lady Astor was not
idle. Her meeting last night ended
?n great <yithusia.sm with Lady As
tor displaying platform Drowess
worthy of Billy Sunday.
The viscountess started her
speech standing behind a table,
which she pounded vigorously to
emphasize her remarks.
Soon she climbed to a chair that
her words might reach the fringes
of the audience. Later she climbed
to tha table and. with characteris
tic arm jabs, denounced her oppon
ents wbom she declared seemed to
stop at nothing In their desire to
accomplish her defeat.
She characterized some of their
statements as "most annoying."
Increasing opposition today Indi
cated the viscountess' election Is
by no means assured. A section of
the conservatives have announced
their opposition to a woman M. P.
and it Is believed many ??r these
will abstain from voting.

THE VALUE OF GOOD
MANNERS
By DOROTHY DIX.
The World's Highest Paid Wo
man WrUer.
(Copyright, 1*19, The Wtfeeler Syndicate.)
j Not lor.g ago I had as my vis a vis
at breakfast on a dining car a singu
larly handsome and attractive youth.
He woo well groomed and well
(dressed, and bad about him ihat look
of alertness, of awakenes% of com
I petency, of being able to make bis i
j way in the world, that marks the!
! young American headed for success, j
I I was rejoicing in him as a splendid]
type of young America when the,
j waiter brought in his breakfast. Ho
had ordered fried eggs. He began
| upon them by slicing a neat segment
of the white from each side of the
yolk. This left the yolk of the egg
unbroken, and ihe youth dexterously
balanced this upon his knife blade,
and. executing a wide sweep with
his arm. proceeded to sh??ot the tidbit
int<T his mouth with a skill that noth
ing but long fpractice could have
accomplished.
It was as flne a bit of sword swal
lowing as I ever saw, and for tables
around every one sat fascinated by
the sleight of hand performance.
When I sighed and said to myself*
"1 know your story, now. my young
friend. You are a" boy who comes
frohi a very humble strata of society,
and of poor and unculturcd parents.
You have exceptional ability and you
have raised yourself to your present
position by your energy, and Industry
and Initiative. But you will not go
much farther, and the thing that will

And I remembered a little atory that

told me a few days before. He said:
"We're going to start a branch of

knew that it was not even possible
