4 Point Worth Considering.

II is high time that organized labor
should be treated as organized capital was
long ago and placed under responsibility
to the law as a corporate O~.genization. All
the mischief done b. irresponsible capital
iStic trusts in twenty years docs not
amount 10 the wreck ana waste of the an
archy of this Pullman strike. There is no
good in single arrests here and there. The
great crime against society is not done by
individual rioters, but by organized labor
welded by Debs and his associates. The
trouble is that irresponsible organization
has been allowed II labor is allowed to or
ganiZe for such pc arful combination. So
ciety must be assured against danger to
life. liberty and property by requiring labor
10 organize under responsible managers and
strict RESPONSIBILITY to the law.

Calls Ii n Fair Offer.

NEW YORK, July 13.-The World this
morning prints the following telegram from
President Debs:
I'VE have acceded to the requests of
thousands of people not directly concerned
in the strike, but affected by il. TO make a
proposition of peace. We have responded
TO this appeal in a manly and straightfor-
ward manner. We offer TO declare the
strike off and make as the only condition
that the men who went out be permitted
TO return to their forme positions. We eX-
cept, of course. those against whom there
are any charges Of violence. We make
marked concessions in this offer. but are
willing to make them in the light of the
great industrial depression that has been
a c-oncomitant Of the strike. We could
make no fairer offer. nor one that more
abundantly considers the interests of the
whole people. 1t is now in the hands of
the railroad managers. If they accept ii
the trouble is ended. If they refuse, we
will renew the fight and follow il up to the
bitter end. And If they refuse, We will then
see what there is in public sentiment"

mittee to which had been referred various
recommendations reported as follows:
That matters referring to independent
political action be rejected. While we claim
that amelioration can be had through the
ballot box, we think that the interest of
our organization is best subserved by Ig-
nOring politics entirely as a body, and this
does not deprive any individual of indie
pendent political action. We fully agree
that strikes and riots are not within keep
ing of American principles. and we oppose
them"
I've believe that the conditions of the
wage-earners can be best improved and diff
ficulties settled by arbitration. We there
fore recommend the Endorsement of compul-
sorry State and national arbitration through
out the land"

AS TO the declaration of the Federation

to merit much consideration. 1t is far bet
ter as TO its rhetoric than as to it's logic.
We are in a crisis. This document deals

pathy Is not what we want. We want a
coalition of forces against corporate pow
ers, and unless we can get it we might as
we'll at once consent TO be serfs. This dec
'aration can have no effect on the strike.
Up to this time these people have given us
no assistance. The strike has just begun.
| think the position taken by the Fedora
ton of Labor will only weaken their own
forces. They have served others with notice
that if they get into trouble they may ex-

organizations. And that is exactly what
they will get. / believe the local unions
will give us their support. This conference
cannot prevent that. 1t is trying TO force
