Many impartial observers are reaching
the view that the real responsibility for
these disorders rests with the people
themselves, and with the government for
not adequately controlling monopolies and
corporations, and for failing reasonably
to protect the rights of labor and redress
its wrongs. None assert that laws can
completely remedy contentious as to
wages, etc, but many do insist that some
thing substantial can be accomplished in
this direction if attempted honestly, rea-
sonably and in good faith
The commission contends that laws
should mike it obligatory upon some pub
lie tribunal promptly to intervene by
means of investigation and Cancellation,
and report whenever a difficulty of the
| character of that occurring during the
past season at Chicago arises.

| biwation in order to bring capital and
