THE LABOR CRISIS.

There seems little chance to doubt
now that vast labor crisis is fast ap-
preaching. There is no living man
who can now give an intelligent guess
as to what the outcome will be if once
the struggle begins between labor and
capital. We only know that the out
break will cause oceans of blood to flow
and will set up a misery such, as the
world has never seen in all its former
history. This struggle will not be con-
fined alone to the United States. The
whole civilized world will be involved
ere the question will be settled as to
the rule OF law or anarchy. Money
will be little uaccount when this war
breaks over the land. There will be
no security for it. The mob will help
itself to money and all else that it re-
Quires or wishes without reference to
whom it belongs, or under which CON-
ditions it exists.
The east middle states and west will
suffer most. The far western states,
especially Utah, Wyoming, Montana,
Idaho, New Mexico and possibly
Arizona, will be comparatively little
affected because the sentiment of the
people on economical questions is
practically an unit. This, too, is meas
urably true of the south. To put
against this sentiment for free silver
the southern states will oppose a
veteran old-fashioned and ingrained
reverence for authority, for Law and
order. 1t is a conservative people In
the main, and it will go into such an
outbreak very reluctantly, and slowly;
but when that section does move out
it will proceed to a finish before it
throws down its guns.
This fair territory of Utah will suffer
least in such struggle. Our popula-
tlon differs radically from the people
of every other state. 1t is more tract
able. 1t has not parted from the con-
serYative business modes in which the
people have been educated. They
are engaged mainly in farming
operations and home manufactures. 1t
will bread, cloth and handle itself
comfortably and pleasantly without
drawing on the outside world tor any
thing, Its people are peaceabIe and
unWsrlike, but should they be Gem
PEELED to defend themselves, the country
is so situated that very small body of
man could with hstand hosts of invaders.
II such an outbreak as seems now prob
able should occur Utah will hold her.
self aloof from all ENHANCEMENT and
as soon as the war cloud passes away
she will be ready to move out on the
plain pathway of progress and without
the long delay which will aflict other
sections of the country.
