Rowan declared that the arrests tonight would in rivase the strike and cause it to spread. Lumber workers in the four States already arc on strike. Reports from all the States named In the strike orders weio to the ef? fect that federal, State, county and city authorities were prepared for any eventuality. Major Wilkins said no disorders had developed. Guardsmen patrolled the vicinty where I. W. W. speakers usually hold their meetings and pre? vented all gatherings. E. F. Blame, chairman of the Statt public service commission here to re? port to Governor Lister on conditions, declared the arrest of tho strike lead? ers today was, so far as he knew, purely a military move. Special deputy sheriffs throughout Spoke cc,.ra|y have been instructed to bo on the '.ert for any overt act on t^o part of the strikers. At the Jail Rowan dictated and signed a statement saying: 'The principal object of the strike of the lumber workers is tl.o eight hour day and sanitary conditions in tho camps. We do not know of any reason why we should be arrested and detained or why our halls should be closed, as we are not breaking any law. We are not unpatriotic. Our principal demand is for the eight h<>ur day which has been adopted us a standard by the Cnlted States gov? ernment on all government work.

The governor a'so addressed a telegram to the member* of the Mouth Carolina delegation in congress urging their cooperation to present the mobilization of the blacks at the Columbia cantonment. Clovernor Manning sent the fol? lowing telegram to the secretary of war: -I protest with all my power against mobilisation ol Puerto Rlcatis and negroes of North Carolina, South Carolina and Florida at Camp Jack? son at Columbia. It is essential that negroes and Puerto Ricans should rot be mobilized at same camp with whites. I wish to protest in person to jou Tuesday morning, next." Cov. Manning also addressed the following telegram to the members of congress from South Carolina: "Newspapers report that 10,000 troops from Puerto Rico, besides all negroes drafted from North and South Carolina and Florida will be mobilized at Camp Jackson at Colum? bia. Probably Puerto Rloan troops are composed largely of mulattOCI and whites mixed together and ac? customed to conditions of race equal? ity.

The lynching of ai I. W. W. official at Putte, Mont., Wdncsday morning is at once the lattst and the ugliest manifestation of a peril that must be dealt with firmly und promptly by State and federalauthorities. The In? dustrial Workers of the World bear an evil reputatiob earned by the law? lessness which almost unfailingly marks their participation in labor dis? putes. Their wartime activities, to most minds, hive grazed tho odg^ of i treason, if tJey have not, indeed ? crossed the lire. The suspicion is wide? spread that heir current efforts to tie I up industry ind stir up trouble have ? been Inspirol by enemy inlluencD. The i man Little, lynched at Butte, took a ? leading pa*, the press dispatches say, in the Arizona troubles and has L been makng incendiary speeches at i Putte. It one of these he is quoted as declare that "if the mines are I taken urder federal control we wilt 1 make it so hot for the government i that it fill not be able to send troops to Fraice." i One&on understand the resentment en atej In the breasts of loyal Ameri - cans ?y utterances like these accom i panifl hy active efforts to foment in > dustial strife and paralyze an in dusry doubly important in war times. 1 Butthe sober second thought tenches tkfll the resort to mob violence, even igiinst men who are preaching law leanest and violence, plays into their lunds and promotes the evil cause In - twitch they work. The pitting of law i tssness against lawlessness more linn once has produced conditions re ? lembllng civil war even in peace time. i Government by the mob in time of I war swiftly degenerates Into anarchy. If the I. W. W. is seeking, as many believe, to substitute anachy for or? der, and so destroy the republic, the ipread of the mob spirit and the adop? tion of mob methods by the friends o: law and order is rather calculated to advance than to block that sinister aim. The task of the federal government will be made harder and its troubles !>e multiplied by this resort to lynch law. The government's arm Is long. It is abundantly able to deal with tic I. W. W. Loyal Americans, In dis? tricts where treason or anarchy seem? ingly nourishes unchecked, have only to be patient a little while and sup? port their local officers In legal mean arcs to protect the public safety while the federal authorities gather the!I evidence and move to the enforce? ment of order and justice. By "taking the law Into their own hands," a Presldent Wilson wired the Arizona governor last month, they set exam? ples and establish precedents for tin lawless that not only are locally mis chievloUB, but nationally dangerous. Order and discipline arc crying needs of the time. The mob spirit should be resolutely put down by local and State authority, backed by loyal and law-abiding citizens, whenever and wherever it breaks out. The rravest mob offenses have been com? mitted In the North and West, but the recent lynching of negroes In Tangl I pahos, scathingly denounced by Judge Bills yesterday, warns us that Louis? iana must mount guard, along with ihe other states, against the mob misrule that would, if tolerated and suffered to spread unchecked, lay the foundations of national defeat and disaster. Lynch law is as deadly a foe In this critical hour as the [, W, V."., enemy intrigue or U-boat fright fulness. New Orleans Times-Pica? yune, CABfP iN A LAB A3! A FOR NLG HO , ca AR1 Looks us If Blacks arc to be Trained in the South?Northern Citios Ob? ject to TIiciii. Washington. Aug. 1?.?Following intimations yesterday that negro sol? diers might be sent to Southern camps by the war department, it vraa announced later that within the next few days members of the negro con? tingent of the District Guard will go to Anniston, Ala., this week. As this is only one section of the District Guard to be sent South, it is not yet known whether all the negroes will go to Anniston or whether they will be divided and part sent to Green? ville. Prior to this time it was believed that Southern congressmen had con? vinced tho authorities that it would not he practicable to send negro sol? diers to the South, chief among thoso who protested being Congressman Sam J. Nieholls of Spartanburg. .110 took the matter up % ' 9 Secretary Raker and convinced hi? that orders to this effect should be changed. Whether or not the negroei 'ao to Greenville, the fact that they arc be? ing sent to Alabama is proof that the war department is sending them South and that having decided t<> place them in Alabama they ina> place them in Greenville and other Southern cites. Northern camp cities arc said not to desire the presence of tiie negroes any more than those In the South and that efforts to place them In the lormer locations have resulted In failure. The Irish of It. (Christian Register.) An Englishman was traveling In the south of Ireland w'hen he can.e to a village called Bktbbereen.

It's called Bklbbereen to distinguish it from other places of the same name." Kerensky and the Russian Cause. Kerensky is too fiercely sincere to make dramatic gestures in the Lloyd Georgian manner or to deliver spectac? ular phrases according to the Roose? velt tradition. His appearance Is surely and dogged, except when he smiles, and then he seems a charm? ing young gentleman out of some un'.versity?a tired student, perhaps,, who has worked too continuously at a difficult problem. He was very fa? tigued and nervous when I talked with him at the time he was engaged In planning the Russian offensive. Rut when he spoke of Russia and America?he Is one of the most loyal and discerning friends the. United States possesses among European gov? ernments?his eyes grew bright anu his voice trembled. "Ah! We understand your simple democracy best," he said. "The Rus? sian people do not understand the nature of the British monarchy, but we understand the spirit of the Unit? ed States. The Russian masses and tlie American people are today one of the most profound democratic kin? ships In history. Russia and the United States?or rather the spirit of our common freedom?must essen? tially dominate the dictation of peace. As I sat in a shabby office of a ministry in Petrograd and talked to this gaunt young chap, who told me naively that he "admired Abraham Lincoln and the United States," 1 psked myself the question: "Is this the man who will save Russia from herself?" Russia v ill be saved if moderation prevail, if Kerensky can reconcile the divergent Russian factions to work to gether for the common good, if com? promise fall, and Russia and Siberia begin to degenerate into a series ol semi-independent nations, Kerensky may not be strong enough to com? mand, and another dictator?another benevolent, pedagogic personality? may be tossed up on the shores of government. The Russian revolution will not be over for a decade or so, and only per? sons with catch-word minds will in? sist upon decorating Kerensky with polemic epithets of the Mlrabeau pe? riod. Kerensky is merely Kerensky? a new phenomenon in a new process of human evolution evoked by the war of democracy.?From "Kerensky: Compromiser," by Henry Suydam, in the American Review of Reviews for August.
