ANOTHER LroNrNMR aIBsoNsPArH

ANOTHER LION IN MI. GIBSON'SPATH.
Charleston's new and e~nterprising little
daily, the Ksnawha Daily Dispatch, gives
some interesting pointers on the politics of
the Fourth District. According to its
statements, there is going to be quite q
contest for the Hon. EUsTACE GIBsoN's
shoes. 1t was thought for a short time,
says the Dispatch, that Mr.. GLIB
SON had his fences all fixed
up, "but a new danger has sprung up lion
like in his path" in the person OF Hon.
W. T. THOMPSON.
The Dispatch pays Mr.. THOMPSON this
compliment: THE Hon. WV T. THoNP
SON, State Treasurer of West Virginia, has
become an svowed candidate and the
very counties which Congressman GIBSON
must depend upon are sure to rally around
the THOMSON banner. Both gentlemen
hail from Cabell county. But the Statt
Treasurer is now the most powerful polite
ian in that county, and a no doubt get
her solid vote in the convention. He viii
carry Lincoln, Wayne and Putnam with q
whirl. These with other votes, said to bt
sure for him, will secure his nomination
Aud Thompson will undoubtedly be TIT
strongest man the Democracy can pui
forth in that district. Not only is he 6
man Of splendid business qualifications
and sterling integrity, but his offcia
record is good. He filed ably and accept
ably, for two terms, the position Of Prose
cutting Attorney in Cabell county. He II
well qualified for the position of State
Treasurer and is a valuable member o
the State Board of Public Works. To de
feat him, the Republicans will have to pu
forth their strongest man. They shoult
realize this necessity in time and try to In
duce such q man as JOHN A. Hutchinson
to enter the field"

equally important and profitable channels

When we see the depression caused by
Railers' strike in Wheeling it is evident
that we need more diversified industries.
While there are facilities here for a great
variety Of manufactures, the nail business
has, to q great extent, m~onopolized the
attention Of the people. When the nail
mills shut down, the business Of the city is
almost psraly zsd. Had other industries
an equal representation, a strike or lockout
or depression in one would not to any
great extent disturb the business relations
OF the city.
We should encourage greater diversity.

ORGANIZATION OF CAPITAL AND
LABOR.


JOHN RoEMER, Esq, of the South Side,
condenses quite q number Of original
views in a very brief space in the last
issue of the Age Of Steel, and which was
reproduced in yesterdays REGISTER.
Among other things he is in favor Of
"abolishing Of corporation laws by States
and Territories" Mr.. RoENER is not
alone in his views on this particular ques-
ton. Since strikes, lock-outs and the in
Vulnerable troubles between labor and
capital have become so frequent, the ques-
ton is often asked whether much of the
contention now existing between the two
amt largely attributable to soulles' and
~monopolizing tendencies Of corporations.
Certainly the great advantages given to
Joint stock companies by special legisla-
ton over individuals and firms
in the prosecution Of business
has given an impetus to the development
and increase Of trade that might not other,
wise have been wrought, thus producing
more wealth and a greater state ofadvsnce'
ment in many directions. On the other
hand, as a set-of to this advantage, we
have almost insurmontable labor difficult
ties periodically and financial distress
growing out of it that were unknown in the
days when individual and eopartnership
firms we're the rule and corporations the ex-
ceptiou. Then it was the man, or men,
with a little capital burst undertake the
risks Of merchandising and manufacturing
on a small scale and believed that energy,
industry and ordinary business segscity
would pull him through. There was no fear
in those days ofbeing crushed or swsmped by
some powerful rival OF limitless means and
influence whose ennity hsd been aroused
10 such a pitch thai it wss determined the
small feb must be eaten up. In those
days, too, the employee and employer got
together with more ease; they stood
closer to a common plane and differences
were quickly adjusted where they existed.
/ Organizations for mutual protection were
not known, nor did they seem necessary.
Every tub stood on its own bottom and no
help was asked or expected from other
tubs. Now the stroBg and the weak unite,
so that whatever advantages one location
or corporation may have over
another is ne~utrslized BY or,
ganizstion, and so the survival Of the
fttest is, in q large measure, no longer a
test in the great struggle of existence.
These organizations Tor mutual protection
began mostly with the capitalists. What
else could labor DO for self protection but
follow suit? Hence, when one hears the
olt.expressed remark that labor organizs-
tons are incompatible with the best inter
ests Of the wage worker, he is confronted
with the fact that labor organizations
are mostly the result of the organ
~izaticu of capital. The latter
sought to strengthen itself in all directions
and in doing so s~ntsgonized labor to such
q pitch that in self defence it had to pur.
sue the same tactics.
If one side had not taken the lead the
other could not have followed, and both
capital and labor have relied upon and
used this weapon of warfare so generally,
and with such power tha! it is doubtful,
even if deemed desirable, any influence
could abolish it.
