THE CLAMOR ABOUT THE ARBITRATION
TREATY.

AAAAAAs
The Senate is being beseiged by two
classes of people with respect to itb
action on the arbitration treaty lately
concluded between the representatives
Of the United States and Great Britain.
One class is urging immediate rsti6ca-
tiOn, while the other cautions against
hssty action.
The former class regard the treaty
as great advance toward the super
sedlng of war by peaceful methods Of
adjusting international differences,
and they have faith In the honest in
tentiOns of the parties to the agree
ment. The latter class are constitu-
tlOnslly preiudiOed against Great
Britain; they do not feel safe In adopt
ing any policy that the British govern
ment approves, and hence they fear
lest we be overreached In the matter
of constituting the instrument IL in 40
other respect.
The ADVOCATE regards the subject
as Of supreme Importance, 1t ought
to be considered by the Senate with
great care. Every paragraph, sen.
tence and phrase ought to be deliber-
stely and studiously gone over with
the view Of arriving at thorough un.
derstandinR Of their scope and intent.
There are some things that cannot
be safely submitted to arbitration.
Then there are some things that may
not be wisely left unguarded whether
In treaty or not. The interests Of
nations, like those of individual per-
sons, are frequently so deliCately inter
related chat no way Of adjusting them
Ia less irritating than that by srbitrs.
tiOn, The principle Of arbitration is
at the bottom Of trial by jury in courts
Of justice,
If the treaty Is found to be sufi.
ciently careful of the rights Of the con
trsCtlng parties, it ought to be ratified
by all means, and there is only one
thing In the way Of ratification. With
the average statesman, his party is first
In his eyes. He will sacrifice much,
even the peace of his country, rather
than risk a party advantage. Before
Senator Sherman was invited tos place
In the Cabinet Of President Mckinley,
he was q violent friend of Cuban inde.
pendence; but he has lately become
quiet as a lamb on that subject, and
as he Is Chairman Of the Committee
on Foreign Relations, 1t is not prob
able the Cuban question will have any
further attention until the next sd-
ministrstion comes into power.
So it may be with the arbitration
treaty. If 1t is put over on some pre-.
Cext until Mr.. Cleveland and his Cab
met have passed into history, and
substantially the same agreement ia
entered into under 9 Republican ad-
minlstration, some advantage may be
gained for use in future election cam.

Labor Exchange No. IS Eelecss Officers.

Labor Exchange No. SIS Eelects Officers.
At "A meeting of Labor Exchange
No 55 held at the Labor Exchange
Depository, No. 81, North Magnolia
street, on the 18th inst, the following
officers were elected for the ensuing
year; President and manager, s. l..
Biting; secretary and accountant.
Grant Cowan; and an advisory board
consisting of l.. w. Mann, E. G. Smsth.
). G. Morgan, ID, l.. Mark, and VIM.
Sinclair.
A report was made by s. l.. Biting
secretay, and accoutanant, for the
past yeai, of the progress made by the
Exchange during that time. 1t was
shown that in the face of the extreme
hard times some advance had been
made, and that the Exchange was
in a better position now than ever be-
fore to go forward with its work. Sew
eral new members have Joined lately,
and determination was shown by all
members to push the Exchange for
ward to that success which has re-
ulted hy its methods in other places.
All members were urged to read the
text book of the Exchange, "Trials
and Triumphs of Labor" and also to
subscribe for its periodicals., so as to
keep fully abreast of the movement.
AS matter of information for those
who are not familiar with the working
OF the Exchange, we will say that
books and pamphlets expla ining same
may be purchased at the Exchange,
and members will be glad to explain,
so far as they are able, the workings
of the association.
1t is a well known fast to labor re-
formers that Labor Exchange prinei-
pies are in vogue where cooperative
labor has been successful. At Ruskin
the hour check has superseded legal
tender money as medium of ex-
change, and else where labor checks
have been found indispensable in the
local exchange of the products of labor.
Legal tender money may be complete
success for the payment of taxes, but
as the sole rIeans for the exchange of
the products of labor, which includes
every -Ming of value, in these latter
d~ys, it seems to result in the conges.
tiOn of these products in certain local
tiles every few years. TO remedy this
is the work of the Exchange, and so
far it has been eminently successful.
We invite inspection of its methods
and the few goods we have for sale
or exchange at the depository of the
Exchange on North Magnolia Street.
The membership fee is 81, and all
in the production of better
times are requested to join. Regular
are held the second Tuesnay
in each month, at 7;30p. m.

Aver and the Metrorolis.

Editor Ocala Banner:
In reply to the clipping from the
Metropolis, which you so kindly sent
me, allow me to say:
That | believe it is generally under
stood that said paper is owned by the
railroad corporations, edited by a
mugwump, and read by few repub-
licans in jacksonville; and that no
member OF the legislature who refused
to wear a Chipley collar around his
neck can expect fair and honest treat
ment from such a sheet.
| carefully prepared and introduced
that printing bill to spite or please no
paper, but only in the interest of the
poor, overburdened taxpayer, and
am perfectly willing to discuss its
merits either on the stump, in the
Banner, or any other paper that will
"tote fair"
l have as much respect for coward
that shoots from the dark, or stabs in
the back, as | have for a newspaper
that wilfully misstates facts by telling
only part of the truth.
A newspaper that says public SER
want, elected by the people, is mean
and ungrateful to his friends because
he will not work for said friends per-
sonal or private interest at the expense
of and to the injury of his many con-
stituents, is certainly an enviable
teacher of public or private morality.

Has pehs Solved the Great Labor Problem I

The Debs Utopia is being talked of
and thought of-talked of earnestly,
thought of deeply. The idea of a
community founded Oh well-estab-
lished ethical or political principles
has always been fascinating one, but
Eugene V. Debs has projected some
thing much greater than mere COM
munity. He proposes to become the
godfather Of state-a regularly con-
stituted state, under Federal protec-
ton, with hard and fast adherence to
socialist-labor principles. In this case
the fascination of the community idea
seems to increase by the ratio of its
magnitude.
By establishing the Cooperative
Commonwealth, Mr.. Debs offers what
he calls an "escape from the present
industrial slavery" Hence it is only
those who sympathize with the vie
Tins of industrial slavery that can be
expected to sympathize with Mr..
Debs in his effort. But even those
who have no sympathies of that kind,
or who refuse to admit that there is
such thing as industrial slavery"
should he interested in the expert
ment for another reason. For Mr..
Debs is sanguine that the Co-opera-
tive Commonwealth will so inspire
the socialist labor party all over the
country that in the national cam
paign of 1904 they should carry the
country, and convert 1t into a cooper
ative commonwealth of vaster proper
tions.
How far Eugene Debs is deemed a
dreamer and how far practical
thinker of enough executive genius
to carry out his ambitious plans is
told herewith. That these opinions
may be read intelligently, the plan for
founding the Cooperative Common
wealth may be rehearsed in outline
thus:
First-Organize 100000 workingmen
into lodges of 500, each man paying u
monthly per capita tax.
Second-SeleCt western state.
Third-Send into it pioneer band
of unmarried or childless men to open
agricultural lands and build co-opera-
tive factories.
Fourth-Whep these have been fol-
lowed by enough men elect the Iegis-
lature.
Fifth-Call constitutional conven-
tion and make the constitution con-
form to cooperative ideas.
Slxth-Call the legislature together
TO enact laws under the new constltu-
ton.
Seyenth-Make labor exchange GER
tificates substitutes for legal tender
money:-Coming Nation.
