HE Milwaukee Journal has a long
editorial on the situation In Two Rivers
and attributes the difficulty to the prac-
tice prevalent elsewhere of paying labor
ers with goods from company stores
instead OF in cash. This system he,De
tolerated IN one place forces other con-
Germs to adopt 1t as matter of self
preservation, because if cash is paid com
petition is impossible.
This certainly is gong far enough from
the trouble existing to find the founda-
ton. Store pay when not an actual nee
essity Is certainly reprehenslble and dan
gerous, causing dissatisfaction ard mu-
tual dlstrust. But the fact that the Tv q
Rivers Manufacturing Company chooss g
to close It's factory and permits it's prop
erty to lie idle, Is petty conclusive proof
that at this time it could not carry on
the cash system. Its action is proof of
the sincerity OF It's protestatlons made be-

If 1t can possibly be avoided, but store
pay is better than no pay. II company
can pay cash it is certainly blamable for
not doing so. But the ability to do so
should be the measure of the censure.
Every person with a generous spark
IN his nature must feel the deepest gym
pathy for these poor workmen out of
employment. But the way to assist
them is to secure such employment for
them as 1t is possible to get. When
times mend, opportunities for employ
ment will multiply and laborers will be

rights and larger measure Of hberality
