NOT AT ALL PRACTICABLE.

The Chief Obj >ctlon to the Scheme Of Com
puisory Arbitration-An Illustration ol
How 1t wou'd Operate II Adopted.
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Compulsory arbitration is not practicable,
as there can be no law passed compelling
capitalists to invest their money in any
manufacturing plant. Nor can there be 9
law enacted forcing a laborer to work al
any particular industry. The government
cannot say to A, you must build rolling
mill, or to B., you must work in that mill.
But each A. and B. must be left to act Of
their own volition. Consequently there can
be no other solution of the question OF
the employment and selling of labor
except natures great law, namely, the law
of supply and demand. The only provis-
ion the Government can make is to regu-
late, and that power is somewhat limited.
The Government can and does encourage the
investment of capital in manufacturing, min
ing and commerce, and the only relief it can
give in more direct way in favor of labor
interests is in becoming a competitor with
capitalists in the labor markets This the
Government can do by employing both
skilled and unskilled labor extensively, in
a forceful and efficient manner in its compe-
tition.
As to the remedy, so much talked of lately,
to settle the wage disputes between laborers
and capitalists by means of arbitration
(eithe- voluntary or so-called compul-
sorv), the following reasons ought to be
sufficient to show the absurdity of the
scheme:
The arbitration can be held and a de-
cision reached, but how can the edict or de-
cision of the tribunal, commission or board
(or whatever it might be called) be en-
forced? This would on seriousrefection be
found to be the main difficulty in the case
Under the United States Constitution and
general system of laws it would be insur-
mountable. Let us suppose a irm-Smith
& Brown-build an industrial establishment
and call for 100 men (skilled or unskilled
or both). The firm offers 81 80 per day.
The men ask 81 per day. They fail to agree
and the arDitrators are called in, and they
decide the wages shall be 81 75 The firm
of Smith & Brown are willing to abide by
the decision, but the men refuse. Judg-
ments are obtained against each of them for
damage for breach of contract and in favor
of Smith & Brown. Now, how will they
collect from any or all who refuse to pay
and who have not property over the amount
exempt from sale. And on the
other hand, suppose the firm of
Smith & Brown refuse to abide
the decisions The men might BY offer of
their services sue and obtain judgments
(for damage for breach of contract) and col
lect the amount the court awarded each and
all of them if the factory or mill would
sell for so much (including costs) under the
sheriff's hammer. And so to make the plan
successful each and all the hands, as well as
the firm, company or individual, must be in
=
their bodies would alone be the assets. And
the bodies under our American system
would not be available. So we think this
ought to demonstrate the utter i'm
of the scheme. DIVIDE.

John R Pott, of Williamsport, travelling
passenger agent of the Chicago, Milwaukee
and st. Paul road, was at the Monongahela
House yesterday. The sixty-eighth session
of the Sovereign Grand Lodge of Odd Eel
lows will meet September 10, in Portland,
Ore, and Mr.. Pott came to Pittsburg to
look after the business. The Trans
Continental, Trans Missouri, Western
Passenger, Central Traffic and Trunk
Line associations have granted a
low rate. The fare from Chicago has been
fixed at $50 90 The official route is the
Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul and
Northern Pacific roads going out, and the
Union Pacific and Chicago and Northwest
ern coming back.
Mr.. Pott expects big crowd of Odd Eel
lows to go from Pittsburg His line didn't
touch the Knights Templar to Denver. The
rate, he says, was too low for any profit.

Coppe was punished in the pillory for rails
ing the price of wheat, and in 1854 man
was punished in the pillory for giving 81
cents bushel for wheat which was 8 cents
more than the law allowed.
Everything was then on the compulsory"
plan. Would it work now? IT . toiler

is idle to call him freeman.
If capital must pay more wages than the
business will justify-or as railroad men
say, 'than the traffic Will bear"-or moro

e,onomic principles as old as Magma Gaarta.
