shall not dispute with any one who
sustaIns the sub treasury plan, for 1t Is In
itself good, and my aim is not to dispar-
age any mans good work, but merely to
compare various methods for attaining
common end, the final enfranchisement
OF labor from the servitude of destructive
competition.
That enfranchisement can only come
by immediate and quasi permanent en-
oloyment OF almost all the idle labor OF :
the nation at wages above the vanishing
point which they have reached. Almost
all, because a part would be drafted 1or
the increased production OF food, cloth
ing and tools, which would at once be
necessary. Perhaps you have never
thought of 1t, but million men, well
employed, at good wages, with their de-
pendants, will eat we'll on to 2,OOOOOO
pounds of meat per diem more than the
same men and families will eat in idle
ness, and without wages. JOt that down
In your memories, where you can find 1t
for reference easily.
am happy to say that the work is at
our command In abundance as wide as
our land if we can do 1t.
I have drawn up somewhat in the form
of bill a proposition In relation to Ia
Dor which Is here submitted to the Con-
gress Of the people for their criticism
and comment There will be many OBJ
jections, amendments and additions-to
fully systematize such matter will take
more work than the national banking
act did-but in this is way Of escape
for US.
First-Be 1t enacted that there be and
there is hereby created department to
be called the department of labor, which
shall consist of secretary, who shall be
a member of the cabinet and board OF
public works, who shall be elected by
the people of the United Sta,es. That
this secretary and board of public works
shall be elected as soon after the passage
of this bill as proper proclamations can
be issued, and shall hold Office until g
regular election in 1894, and thereafter
the office shall be by four year terms.
That the authority of this board shall In
elude all labor to be done on the naviga-
BILE streams, harbors, ship canals and
inter state canals and all irrigation sys-
TENS on public lands and any public
, highways, which may become by con-
struction or purchase 'or right of emil
nent domain the property of the United
, States; and shall be as defined in the
succeeding sections of this act and in
acts supplementary thereto. That imme-
. diately upon the organization Of this de-
partment, the secretary of war shall

Az q matter Of fact, the total labor
force of the United States could well
afford to pension In idleness 10 per cent.
of their number, If that per cent. was
deAnable body, susceptible Of segregation
from the map, and II 1t was necessary.
1t would be merely forming labor trust,
which Is not worse than whiskey trust,
and would destroy this deadly competi-
ton which eats our lives. 1t would raise
the wages of labor much more than 10
per cent, until capital bought some new
machinery, or imported a new competi-
tive force.
However, do not think this is neces-
ssry. There are other ways or at least
there is one other and very much better
way in my opinion.
Right here am compelled to touch
upon the much vexed problem Of finance,
much against my wish, for 1t Is in hands
which, it Is to be hoped, are abler than
mine. However, it Is unavoidable.
Of three ways which are for getting
money, earning 1t, borrowing 1t, or haV-
ing 1t as a gift, the first Is incomparably
the best; and yet the only propositions
for increasing our circulation depend
upon the other two methods. There are
the land loan scheme, the sub treasury
plan and the pension bill.
As to the last, l have been consistent
and strongly partisan Republican fol
thirty years. The teachings Ofmy father
(who was not ignorant Of the "under
ground railroad" some Of you may have
heard of it), and the impulses Of my OWE
heart, prompt me to generosity where
any soldier of the United States Is an in
terested party, but before generosity tt
the unpensioned remainder of the grant
army is considered, think whether al
e1OO,OOO,OO0 might not be better ex
pended upon the million unemployed
who have right to live without beggar!
In your United States.
This sum of money, paid out as pro
posed, would not OF necessity give em
ployment to one more man.
It is a generous gift at best, for no on
has pointed out more lucldly than Sena
tor PETER himself that the soldiers wage
paid in paper, did not materially depre
ciate in It's relation to the necessaries o
life, but only to gold. compared witt

1927 II that Is true it ends the theor

lab0riRR humanity than the oSmAnuS VA
civlliSaGlon has ever made use OF.
Please yourselves, gentlemen econo-
mists, about your law, but 1t, or the con-
ditIons under which 1t does such de-
struction, must be changed.
The economists have in q number OF
cases pointed out how the law OF supply
and demand operated and how its evil
effects might be averted. For Instance,
il q certain market may be fully salts
fed by che production Of 100 bushels Of
wheat, then the addition of one other
bushel, actively in search Of purchaser,
will reduce the price Of the whole amount
below the price Of the original one hun
dred, and perhaps below the cost OF the
actual production. The remedy proposed
has been, first, to prevent the access OF
that competitive bushel Of wheat, or fall
ing in that, for the whole body of pro
ducers to buy the pestiferious thing and
destroy it, or lock It up somewhere out
of sight.
Carry out the illustration. II a certain
workshop, called the United States, or
the world If you please, for 1t has almost
grown to be that now, will economize
the labor Of 100000 men, the labor of
one additional man actively seeking en-
ployment will, theoretically, reduce the
wages Of all. The unneeded labor Of
100000 men will practically do this, has
done 1t and is doing 1t every day. Yet
It Is finally unemployed just as the odd
bushel of wheat would be in the other
case.
Now the only remedy that our gentle,
one-ldea political economists have yet
been able to put In force has been ex-
actly the same In this case as In the
other. Destroy the offending labor by
wars or put 1t out of fslght in warehouses.
or at least disguise it by calling 1t the
"pauper class" OF course they have not
actually proposed defamation of the popu-
latlon, well directed, accomplishing it's
aim, made painless by anesthetlcs. Not
exactly that, but they have, with due
Modlcum Of tears, given thanks to their
molochan providence, that wars and

There is a tendency among men, and
perhaps most markedly among political
economists, to consider that, when the
truth of any proposition appears to be
fixed It Is useless to attempt to evade the
common consequences Of 1t. The propo-

and they look upon any question as to
Its righteousness with the same uncom-

haps it is owing to our obtuseness,

But how is the split going to help

MINNEAPOLIS Republicans did
not ratify the nomination of Har-
rison and Reid last Saturday even
ing. The reason assigned by the
official organ of the president was
sympathy for the Blaine family on
account of the death of Emmons
Blaine. The true reason is, the
getters-up of the meeting were
afraid it would prove a fizzle.
Hours before the death of Emmons
Blaine was announced in Mime
apolis, Mr.. John Goodnow, the
prime mover in the ratification
meeting, discovered that he had
business interests in Duluth that
demanded bis attention., and he
was a passenger on the Minnesota
Eastern train that leaves Mime
apolis at 1870 P. NJ. The fact of
the matter is Minneapolis is a
Blaine city, and the Republicans
of that city are sorely disappointed
over the ignominious defeat and
political death of their favorite.
Better give the Republicans of
Minneapolis a chance to cool off.
1t is not good politics to crowd
the mourners.

It behooVes the Republicans to
nominate no Weaklings for State
offices this year. The best vote
getters in the party must be
Brought forward. 1t is all very
well to talk Of 10000 Republican
majority. 1t sounds brave. But
it is, not war. Grover Cleveland
is the almost unanimous choice Of
the Democrats of Minnesota, and
they are united and enthusiastic in
his support. The nomination of
Harrison has, to say the least,
chilled the ardor of many Repub-
licans. If there is any mistake
made at ST. Paul on the 2Sth of
next month, then goodbye to Re-
publican supremacy in the North
Star State for years to come.

: KNUTE NELSON is in the hands
of his friends. He is making no
active canvass for the Republican
nomination for governor. We be-
lieve he is the first choice of an
overwhelming majority Of the Re-
publicans of Minnesota for gov
ernor. But, as in the case of
Blaine, the politicians may stife
the voice of the people in the State
convention. We believe Mr.. Mel
son to be the strongest and best
of the numerous candidates men
toned. His name would be a
''tower of strength to the ticket.
The people have confidence in him.
He is man of undoubted ability
and unquestioned honesty. He is
a man that the corporations could
not control. He is a broad guage
man whose sympathies are with
the toiling masses. If any Repub-
lican can be elected governor of
Minnesota this year Hon. Knute
Nelson is that Republican,.
