nroducers and consumers of the United States
hundreds of millions every year lie employs
many thousand hands, and has treated thelh
with consideration, justice and liberality. DO
conspicuous has been the fairness OF the New
York Central in its conduct toward employees
that it has repeatedly escaped contests which
other trunk lines were compelled to meet. II
would be within the mark to say that Mr.. Depew
had directly benefited the laboring people OF
this country by many millions yearly, through
his judicious and liberal management of the
great interests placed in his charge irrespective
of the saving to consumers and producers by
the cheapening of the cost OF transportation.
Because Mr.. Depew has done something for
the country and for the people, and especially
because he has done much for the interests of
laboring men and women everywhere, he has
accumulated some money. No one can deny
that whatever he possesses has been fairly
earned by abors and anxietieS, by cares and
mental exertions, of which not many men are
capable. lie has earned much and has received
much, as the Just reward Of great public ser
vices But now he is contrasted by pretended
leaders of labor with man whose conduct is
found by jury shamefully unfair toward work
ing men and employers alike. If this is the sort
of judgment to be expected from labor organza-
tions, if they arc ready to uphold and defend
men who blackmail laborers, and to vilify one
whose life has been spent in useful public SER
vice, can these labor organizations expect any
public sympathy
No doubt it may be said that the words OF
an individual speaker at the meeting of labor
organization should not be taken as proof of the
opinions of the entire body which he claims to
represent But is it not true that these organ
izations do habitually strive to infame preju-
dices against every man who has succeeded in
life, and has acquired means, as if he had there
by robbed and wronged the millions who remain
poor? Is it not fact that these same organ
izations do habitually uphold and defend persons
like BarondesE in spite of their proved miscon-
duct and unworthiness for no better reason
than that they are not rich, and profess to be
contending for the cause of labor? There will
have to be great change in the conduct and
temper of labor organizations, in such matters
as these before they can command the conil-
dence of fair-minded and Just men.
New-York tribune., 1891-05-10
A CONTRAST,

Barondess is in prison, but Mr.. Depew Is at
liberty Persons who claim to represent the or
ganized labor of the United States find in this
contrast evidence that the laws are administered
unfairly toward the poor, and in favor of the
rich. But they surely cannot comprehend how
they misrepresent SnG degrade the cause of labor
by such comments
Barondess has been tried and found guilty.
His offence was one of the worst and basest that
can be committed. If allegations against him
are correct. and they are credited by jury, he
defrauded poor working people for his own bene-
fit, poclleted large sums by pretending to repre-
sent their interests while in fact living on the
earnings of their labor, sponged on them and at
the same time extorted money from manufact-
urers by blackmail, and kept multitude of
workers. idle and suffering in order that he
might get moro money. II is hard to conceive
of a meaner fraud than this man is declared
by Jury to have committed. Yet so-called
labor leaders profess to regard him as a martyr
in their cause.
Mr.. Depew started in life not richer than the
labor aeitatOr with whom he is compared. lie
devoted his time and energies to the promotion
and development of a great highway of COM
merce. Whether his services have been worth
much to himself or not. they certainly have been
worth many millions TO the public. The re-
duction of fares and freights on the railroad
which he directs has affected similar charges
nn all other roads, and thus has been worth to

The contrast drawn by our staff correspondent
between Aguas Calientes and San Luis Potosi
brings out the transformation wrought in Mexico
by a decade of American railway building and
enterprise. One city has remained stationary
while the other is rapidly becoming great
commercial centre. San Luis Potosi is one of
the most promising and progressive towns in
Mexico, and is already rivalling Monterey in
American enterprise The quaint watering
place lying west of it has not felt the impulses
of Northern energy and is languishing and de-
clining. Only those who have recently visited
Mexico can have an adequate idea of the work
for civilization which Americans are accom-
plishing in the Southwest.
