For orderly laws, comfortable
living and responsibility about
seventy million people prefer the
United States as a place Of resi-
dence. But these same qualities
do not at all times produce the
effect intended or desired. Events
during the past thirty days set
ono to thinking out way that
will improve the condition of
the laboring class in and about
Chicago and at the same time
bring the monopolists to a point
where they will realize that they
have only a lcasehold on the
world. Matthew Arnold is re.
sponsible for the statement that
America is too bcastlv prosper.
Gus. AS a government perhaps
the statement is correct but the
constituents of Mcsscrs. Deb'
and Sovereign hold different
views to Mr.. Arnold; they lacl
Contentment in the slaughter
house districts Of Chicago and
state of mental, physical anc
moral degeneration is necessar,
for the cultivation of gooC
healthy contentment microbes
immigration has made Chicago
an admirable place tor such cult
walton. You must breed then
in deCaying matter.
To cord Ict a strike as Deb
has this one requires a great dea
OF cerebral activity; to put
down and keep these men unde
control requires a greater quar-
titv of the same sort of aCtivit
on the part of the government
! You will naturally ask whiC
men we mean. A reference t
the investigating committee {
| the United States Senate on tn
sugar bribery scandal will lea
YOU to believe that we mean tn
managers of the Trusts. Their
should be a way of harmonizin
labor and capital because it
not a good plan to hold othe
than pleasant relations with thos
with whom we come in COntaC
every day especially when tn
two parties are what may be COZ
sidcrcd the brain and muscle {
the world. Without capt.;
there would be no demand tC
for labor and without labor cap
tai would be useless.
The strike over there shoul
be one of the strongest argl
ments the people of Hawa
should have against annexation
it shows what political uniC
with the United States wouI
bring us, annex and your co
tract laborer would be free ar
he would grasp the first oppo
tunity to organize a Labor UniC
and go on a strike; unions won
: spring up like the sorghum {
Paul Iscnberg's ranch after
put in his Acrmotor. We re
lie that we are held togcth
here by the profits from one i
dustry, tie up that industry
I Debs has the trade and col
merce of a great territory Ill
the United States and "Whc
are we at ?" One single striI
r under a trade union and it W
take a long time to rcCOup Il
losses the planter would sustai
!. The strike over there was cause
by the grasping nature of
:. monopolist; his employees ask
t nothing unreasonable, nothil
g more than would fill their eve
a day wants, they were Statistic
$ with less than a days pay for
days labor, but they objected
t working for nothing. Under t
: contract system we can puta ia
s ancse or Chinese laborer whe
e ever stalk of cane grows and '
can get them at the price that
ruling today, make the lab
free and you will have near
every thing that Chicago has
the way oil labor difficult,
because the sugar industry
which is not a trust, would
in the hands of tyranical cza
and walking delegates.
We are thankful that the stri
! did not extend to the trade
= because il it had we could n
4 offer you the "Pansy", which
the best stove in the market,
e SI5.oo-mark well the prit
r You can get nothing like it a
q where.
