The Gentiemen's Association
Dead as Door Nail.
CHICAGO, April 5.-The committee
appointed at the special meeting of
railroad presidents last week to re-
port on form of agreement, adj
journed to-day until April Is. The
chief reason for this was that repre-
sentation of all the interested lines
could not be obtained, the Missouri Pa
eific, the Union Pacific, the Wisconsin
Central and the Fort Scott q Memphis
taking no part in the committee work.
However, a skeleton form of agree
ment was prepared and copies sent
to the executive officers OF all the
roads requesting them to pass Judgment
upon it and make such suggestions as
might occur to them. This will prob
ably be the end of the movement to re-
organize the Interstate Commerce Rail-
way association, as the Missouri Pacific
is evidently antagonistic to the move
ment, and the other roads will not enter
into an agreement to which the Mis-
souri, Pacific is not party.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, April 5.-The
Union Improvement company (The
Ebervale Coal company to-day issued
nine writs of ejectment against
tenants occupying their property at
Ebervale. The writs are based upon

company without further. notice. In
order to enforce this agreement tenants
have been compelled to sign power of
attorney authorizing any lawyer in

ejectment against them. The writs were
placed in the hands of the sheriff

which action aroused such a strong in
dignation that the company was COM
PEELED to recall their Writs of ejectment.

WAsHINGT N, May 23-In the senate yester-

suggests for each an industrial policy un-
like that of the other. The United States
produces the greater part of her raw ma
terials of manufacture and somewhat
more of food products than she uses
The production of raw materials with
her is not minor, but an important in
dustry. The raw materials which We do
not produce, and which do not displace
our American products, should be ad-
mitted free.
Investigations of the conditions and
facts of production peculiar to each in
dustry show US that free competing raw
materials can confer no advantage upon
the labor and industries of the United
States which are not counterbalanced by
attendant disadvantages.
Free raw materials would not help
agriculture, for the farmers products
are themselves raw materials.
They would not help manufacturing,
for, while they would lessen the consum-
ing power of the home market, they
would not enable the United States to
gain permanent place in supplying the
markets or the world.
They would not help the mining in
dustries, for the miners products are the
raw materials of manufacture
They would not help our commerce,
for they would decrease the exchange of
services and commodities between the
different parts of our country, while the
increase of the carrying trade, whatever
might result, would be absorbed by other
countries having a more efficient mer-
chant marine.
As her industries are not benefited,
neither is her labor. Like so many other
phases of the tariff question, it upon last
analysis resolves itself largely into a
question of labor and wages. The United
States cannot compete in production
with England, Europe and India and
maintain her present scale of wages. If
the United States cannot compete In
manufacturing with the pauper paid la
Dor of England and the continent; In
commerce, with the subsidized ships of
England; in mining, with the half paid
labor of foreign countries; In agriculture
and stock raising, with the cheap lands
and labor of India, Australasia and the
South American states, it becomes i'm
pOrtant TO consider where she shall find
such field for the exercise of her labor
and capital as will keep her industries
from decay, and her labor above the
starvation rates of competing countries.
The economic policy that will insure
to the United States a measure of pros
perity in the future equal to that which
she has enjoyed in the past is not policy
which will create for US one sided indus
trial development. 1t will rather seek
to develop the various branches of hui
man activity which the character of our
people, our soil, our climate and our
natural resources give us a capabilty Of
supporting. It Is a policy which will
give to labor the largest possible con-
ditions of varied employment.
Such policy, logically carried out.
along with encouragement to the manu-
facture of finished commodities, will give
protection to our raw materials which
have to meet the competition of foreign
countries with superior facilities for
cheap production.
