long republican. Under tho now law
passed by tho legislature last winter
county commissioners, while nomi
nated tyti..i. mrU districts, aro to bo
voted for by tho votors or iAio ontlro
county. This will tend toward making
tho county board of tho sanio political
complexion as tho majority of county

In this republican year.
Freedom of Contract.
Tho labor leaders who havo inter
viewed tho president say that ho
makes a clear distinction between an
"open shop" In private business and
an open shop in a government depart
ment. Of cottrso ho does. Tho con
stitution and laws of tho country
guaranteo tho utmost freedom of con
tract to tho citizen. If employers and
employes mutually agree that a shop
shall bo open to none but mombors of
a labor union, It is a matter strictly
between themselves. But with tho
government It Is quite dilforout. All
government olllces and employment
aro open for competition to all Amer
icans who can prove tholr competency
to perform tho duties of such ofllco or
omploymout, and competition under
tho civil sorvico laws for appointments
must not bo confined to any self-con
stituted organization of private citi
zens.' Especially is it inconcolvablo
that any private organization can
usurp tho constitutional authority of
tho oxecutlvo in discharging men from
tho public sorvico. as was attempted
by tho printing trades unions in Wash
ington, when tboy domundod tho dls
chttrgo of Miller, tho bindery fore
man, on tho ground that ho was no
longer a mombor of tho union. Tho
presidon! is not a man who would in
terfere ollicially with the arrango
tnonUj of private employers and em
ployes or olfer them gratuitous ad
vice about open shops or closed shops.
It hat not been tho habit of business
or laboring men in this country to
ask ollioial advlco as to their mutual
contracts.
But it Is a matter of record that
whou tho anthracite arbitration board
in settling tho disputes between tho
operators and tho minors decided that
tho mines should bo open after profor
once had been given in tho llrst in
stance to tho old hands who were ott
on tho striko, tho operators and tho
unions agreed with tho president's
commission and accepted the settle
ment on those terms.
In New Zealand tho law Is against
an opon shop except in cases where
the union cannot supyly a demand
for hands from their own ranks, but
New Zealand by her labor laws has
definitely abandoned the theory of
freedom of private contract. That is
a theory that was first enunciated by
our forefathers when (hey framed tho
constitution of tho United States. It
Is not likely that It will ever bo over
thrown in this country. When it is
tlio beginning of tho end of personal
freedom in this country will havo ar
rived. However auspicious tho begin
ning of tho departure may soem to tho
laboring man's contention, the end
will bo his uudoing. Freedom of con
tract is a protection to labor that can
not bo surrendered with impunity.

Nerved to Die Effort.
Did you over notico how a woman
wm ulways rlso to tho demand of an
occasion under almost any circum
stances? Llfo and lltoraturo aro rich in tho
recapitulation of tho deods of heroism
performed by tho supposedly woaker
so'x, but If wo cau take any stock in
olthor truth or fiction, women can sum
mon up to tholr uld an oxtraordluaiy
amount of norvo though it may bo
spasmodic -that Is simply astonishing.
Tho latest necessity for u display of
groat and physical nioutal effort arose
in a Colorado town vory rocoutly,
whoro tho ontlro staff of a local paper
was an ostod for displaying too much
sympnthy with striking minors.
Tho nrrost was vory innocently ar
ranged to tuko placo just about tho

not yet come, so thoy turned in at tho
ofllco, wrote up some pieces," set tho
typo thomsolvos thoy had loarned
tho ttado as girls and tho paper
came out on tlmo and tho day was
won.
Then thoy went homo and had nor

Of course, thoy could not havo boon

The Cuban Treaty.
It may bo that a systematic effort
will bo mado to defeat tho consumma
tion of tho reciprocity treaty at the ex
pected extra session. It is to be hoped
that no such clfort will bo made, at
least in any republican quarter.
No such eirort can bo mado without
the responsibility therefor being defi
nitely llxed. Tho method, of course,
will bo delay, evasion, postponement.
It will bo cloarly understood, never
theless. Tho extra session will prevent any
chauco of success for such tactics. No
doubt that is tho reason tho president
docidod to call an extra session, al
though, of courso, ho cannot court
eously say so, specifically.
Tho republican party will moot its
responsibility as a party in this matter,
and any republicans who aro opposed
to tho treaty should meet tho issuo di
rectly. They havo a right to seok with
in proper ground to express their voius
upon tho party, but thoy should do so
openly. Lincoln Star.
