time the men demanded a restoration of
wages, but the company showed from its
books that it was losing money on the
contracts upon which the men were en-
ployed. About this time Mr.. Debs organ
lied these workmen as a branch Of his
American Railway Union. and soon after
a strike was declared The managers
fused to advance wages and closed their
when the men would accept the wages.
The works have since been closed, no at
tempt being made TO resume work with
other men, Directly Mr.. Debs demanded
of the company that it submit the differ
ences between the employees and the COM
pany to arbitration. The company refused.
There was simply a difference in regard to
wages. and the company preferred to allow
its works to remain idle rather than pay
the good-tme wages At most it was a
difference between s1.S5 or s19O a day and
s225
The demand which Mr. Debs has made
is that the Pullman company shall pay the
men who have left its employment sched-
ule of wages fixed by parties who have no
interest in its business and who know moth
ing about it. The Debs demand is nothing
less than an assumption that corporation
must find employment for men who have
left its service at wages which outside
parties may fix. If a man factory
he cannot close it when orders cease. but
must pay good-times wages long as
those whom it has once employed demand
them, if the Debs demand upon the Pull
man company should become precedent.
Several ambitious young professors of eco
Monies have vaguely advanced this re-
markable theory, but Mr.. Debs is the first
man to put it into practical effect. .
1t is to enforce this theory that Mr.. Debs
has interrupted the transportation of
nation. What do sensible people think of

tants of any school district going outside
one district are not permitted to vote in
another. The law does not say that town
ship trustees who are also school Off
GERS, must reside within the township. but
that is the unwritten law. If it be adj
mitted that a person may represent as
school commissioner a district in which he
does net reside. then every of the
eleven commissioners might reside in the
same district. Perhaps this might not dis
qualify them from a proper discharge of
their duties. but it would be scandalous

ALL THE BENEFICIARIES.


AS the investigation into the armor-plate
frauds proceeds 1T reaches gradually higher
and higher. The first people involved were
the common laborers. The committee has
already forced confessions from various
higher officials till Thursday the superin-
tendent of the armor-plate shops was
caught in the tolls 1t is now but few
steps until the proprietors--the beneficial
ries of the swindle-are reached. And they
are the men the country is after.
So says the Sentinel, and so say all. But
the members of the Carnegie company are
not all of the 'benefciaries' as the Senti-
mel must admit when it shall have recalled
the whole history of the affair. The facts
which the investigation (Which the House
delayed long as it COULD has brought to
light were known to the President and the
Secretary of the Navy as early as last De-
cember. Secretary Herbert had all of the
statements of the men who have testified
before the House committee when Congress
met. Upon those statements and the proofs
Secretary Herbert and the experts of the
Construction Bureau of the Navy estimated
that the Carnegie company should pay back

About the time that reduction was secretly
made Mr.. Carnegie wrote a letter to the
President indorsng the iron and steel sched-
ule of the Wilson bill and asserting that it
would afford sufficient protection. 1t will
be said that the Presidents remarkable
liberality, practically a gift of $266OOO, has
no connection with the Carnegie letter. and

are made. They are the employees whose

this cut in wages that Mr.. Andrew Carnegie
declared that he could compete with Europe
when the Wilson bill should become law.

The fight being made against Lands in

Gresham Republicans that their services

The Sentinel is absurd. There is neither
Harrison nor anti-Harrison in the un-
fortunate conflict in the Tenth district. AS
