EMPLOYEE

Numbers Of our ablest men are
coming over TO the ranks of those
earnest thinkers who comprehendth the
danger to society from the unjust and
unnatural relations now existing be-
tween capital and labor. In England
the differences are wider than they
are in America, and yetthey are suf-
ficiently alienated here tocause much
trouble and unsettle many classes Of
trade. The recent 4" long strikes
which have occurred in the mining
regions develop the fact that the
breach between the two is getting
wider every day and the differences
greater. Here in our quiet commu-
nifty, where labor is well settled and
certain, we do not feel the shock of
the battle to amy great extent, yet
the different unions oflabor interests
against capital, even in our own
midst, betokens a growing antago-
nism.
The greed of corporations and great
capitalists has had much to do with
destroying the moral sense Of the la
boring interests. The burdensome
determinations of this class against
the working classes for so many years
has made their present attitude am
absolute necessity wherever and
whenever large communities are en-
ployed. Seliishness on the one side
has begat an INSCRIPTIONS and yio-
lent opposition on the other, likely to
be led into excuses and crime. The
workingman ON large works has been
treated as a beast of burden, to be
driven ut high pressure speed as long
as wind and muscle hold out, at the
lowest cent possible for living, and
then to be turned off like a worn out
mule when broken down with the
weight of his burden. Is it any won
der, then, that he has at last found
that there is power in organization,
and that to improve his condition he
must join with his fellows
and organize a power hostile to his
employer, and to give unbridled lat
itude to that power in the endeavor
to gain his rights.
In such a conflict the element of
conscience must be inevitably lost,
and the fight detrimental to the pub
lie interests. The relations of capital
to labor and labor to capital should
be friendly and reciprocal, and this
antagonism lessons the valued both.
An employee who has no interest i'm
his employers business, other than to
do the least possible amount of work
for the money he gets, and to do itas
poorly as possible, is not worth hav-
ing, and yet these unsettled relations
breed just this sort of thing. A set
Element of those questions upon an
equitable basis to both parties is the
one great problem yet to be solved by
the American people. In Europe the
social differences between the differ
ent classes are such that they cannot
take hold of the Subject with any
hope of success, and il will remain
for this country to settle the question
for the world.
