EMPLOYERS ORGANIZATION.

The organization of the manufacturers
and other large employers of labor in San
Francisco to resist what they claim to be
unjust demands of labor unions, is the
most important local occurrence of the
year, so far as capital and labor are con-
cerned. The new association fully con-
cedes the right of labor to organize for its
protection from wrong and to promote
the aggregated personal interests of wage
earners. They claim for employers pre-
clseIy the same right. Instead, then, of
such organizations being disturbing and
calculated to increase the friction be-
tween employers and employed, the truth
is that the result will be beneficial to
both sides. Organization, orderly con-
served, and when not dominated by pas
sion, induces conservatism. With en-
ployers and employees both organized and
pursuing remedies that law and reason
Justify, there must be reduction of fric-
ton; the tendency must be to the settle
ment Of all issues joined without resort
to forcible or extreme measures. Of
course it would be infinitely better if So
cial organization were such that mutual
recognition Of justice would render op-
posed organizations unnecessary. But
we have not reached that supreme state
OF civilization. With both capital and
labor organized, each to resist the undue
eXactions of the other, and to secure to
each just demands, there must be greater
ease in bringing about adjustments salts
factory to both. Organized capital and
organized labor can deal with mutual
complaints before hot blood or bitter
preJudices are engendered, for greater
celebrity will be the rule in the adjustment
Of disputes, and more satisfactory settle
ments will be attained. The very fact
that on each side there is an aggregation
OF interests in organizations watchful
over the good of the membership of each,
will tend to diminish the aggressive
spirit. Representatives, of such bodies
can arbitrate, when with organization
operating against disunited individuals
such an end would be difficult to reach.
or If attained only at the cost. Of great
suffering upon the part Of one or both of
the opposed forces. However looked at.
it seems to us to be conservative of mu-
tual interests that under existing condi-
tions employers and employees should
face each other with orderly organization
instead of lawlessness, the injustice and
tyranny Of the boycott, the costly expert
ment of the strike, or the resort to the
ruinous lockout. The new association in
its constitution and bylaws declares that
its appeal to the lockout is recognized as
last remedy for the strike unjustly pro-
jected, and it at the same time pronounces
its desire to avoid both strike and lock-
out and to prevent coercion in any form.
The purpose of organized labor must be
the same, and coercion by it also held to
be the last resort. With the two bodies
thus pronouncing in favor of the COM
plete exhaustion of amicable means for
the settlement of issues it seems to us
that the new movement must tend to
lessen strikes, lockouts, boycotts and bad
blood.

IS DRUNKENNESS CURABLEs


DR.. I. n. Crothers, in the North Ameri-
can ReCielC, holds that inebriety is cur
able; that its durability follows from the
application of certain general principles,
the first of which is isolation and change
of surroundings-tha is to say, the ine-
briate must go into quarantine, where all
the external conditions of life will an
tagonize his disorder and assist nature to
return to health.
This is not new doctrine. The asylum
at Binghamton, New York, the pioneer.
was founded and has been successful
upon the theory that inebriety becomes a
disease, and is to be treated as such.
When we cease to regard habitual drunk
enness as a crime, and treat it as a dis
ease, more certainly durable than insan-
ify, as DR.. Crothers correctly asserts. we
will have done that which humanity and
common sense dictate. No drunkard was
ever yet reformed by punishment. On
that point DR.. William A Hammond de-
clares that:
Even after physical restraint has been faith
fully persevered in for long periods many of
those who have been subject TO 1t resume the
habit of getting drunk soon after they are set
at liberty. This they do simply because they
want TO. Drunkenness is a mode OF enIoy-
ment for them. They either Go not believe it

DID SIZE PLAY FAIRs

In lack of a convenient big brother,
shall not young lady protect herself
against the slanderous assaults of man
by resort to physical force? That is a
question which probably none but the
woman interested can answer with pre-
cision.
OF course nine women out of ten will
suffer on and endure shame and contumely
before they will undertake the defense of
themselves; and the nine we admire for
their womanly heroism. But shall the
tenth woman, who takes her cause into
her fists and Furnishes her traducer by
punching his head soundly, receive our
condemnation or commendation? That
is a question which will divide senti-
ment. Seven out Of ten men will prefer
that their mothers and sisters shall suffer
under SANDER in preference to carrying
their defense into the realm of fisticuffs
But one having done so, what shall we
say of her? Did she disgrace or honor
her sex? When Minnie Cassidy black
ened the eyes of Cushing on Union
Square, in San Francisco, on Wednesday,
did she lower herself to the level of the
slanderous cur, or did she vindicate the
honor Of her sex? 1t is by no means a
simple question. We are compelled to
admire the pluck of MissMinnie; we can
not but think that in carrying her cause
into the public forum by street assault she
really vindicated her fame. A guilty
woman would scarcely venture to invite
scrutiny by such an act. But was it un-
womanly, and did the young lady offend
the sensibility with which men regard
women by making slogger of herself
for even a moment? We confess that
while we should sadly deplore such an
exhibition by lady relative or friend,
we could not repress degree of admira-
ton for her conduct in disgracing and
Furnishing a miserable, slanderous cur
There is but one being more contemplate
than another in all animate nature; it is
the man who is soundly thrashed by a
Justly indigant woman he has wronged in
the citadel of female character, by de-
famation of her fair name because she has
rejected his advances, or for any other
reason. Meaner than any other thing in
creation is the cowardly whelp who vii
ifies an innocent woman, saving and ex-
cepting only the littleness and dishonor
to which the man sinks whose eyes a
woman blacks in defense of her honor
and who makes the fellow beg for mercy
before the multitude upon the highway.
But did Minnie play fair in the encoun-
ter TO which we have referred? She
took lady friend, Miss Harcourt, with
her, who held the head of the slanderer
while she battered his eyes. Considering
the physical disparity between the con-
tending forces, was Miss Cassidy justi-
fed in putting a handicap upon Cushing
while she punched his miserable little
head? Upon this all important question
we confess to indecision and refer the
matter to experts in the art of self-defense

Living in Mid-Air.

There is one thing that has kept pace
with the ascending buildings. 1t takes
you less time to reach the eleventh story
OF new structure nowadays than it took
to reach the third floor few years ago.
When you step into an elevator in mod
ern building, you feel as if you were
flashed through space. You are no sooner
in the car than you hear the monotonous

there; so the inconvenience of having an

There are two mysteries about the above
paragraph. The first is why the Bradford
Opinion should launch such a hodge-podge
of historical errors and grammatical mis-
takes upon its readers; the second is why
the Burlington FREE PRESS, which ought to
know little something about the history of
Vermont, should placidly reprint it.
Vermont was first visited by white men
in 1909, but the first settlement was made
more than half a century before Fort
hummer was founded. We had supposed
that the date of Nermont's declaration Of
Independence was known by every school
boy in the State, and if such is the case the
ol-boys have a great advantage over the
FREE PRESS and the Opinion. The wicked
king did many reprshensible things, but he
never granted Jurisdiction Of all land west
Of Connecticut to New York. The state
ments about the Several Intellectual at
tempts'' to join the union and the compro-
missing of New Works claim, are simply
ridiculous. And finally, passing over some
smaller errors, the State constitution was
amended not only in the years named, but
also in 1928, 1886 and 1850. st. Johns

How the Bradford Opinions bunsling
paragraph came to be reprinted in the FREE
Press, we do not know. Certainly there was
no need to copy it, for our readers
have had the facts repeatedly set before
them in fuller and better shape. But our
Bradford contemporary and the subordinate
who, as we suspect slipped the paragraph
into our paper to fill gap in a column, need
not feel wholly crushed by the ST. Johns
bury critic. Correcting what were probably
typographical errors, the Opinions history
is as accurate as the Republicans
For its first statement the Opinion might
fall back on Shades State Papers which
opens with the words; ''The first settle
ment within the territory now known by the
name OF Vermont, was made at Fort Dunn
mer'' Tor on Thompson, who says: "Ths
first civilized establishment within the pres
emit limits OF Vermont was made in l724 by
tho erection Of Fort Dummer. - Hiland

Replacing the little word the (which was
