MEN AND MACHINERY.

One of the questions involved in the
engineers strike in England was as to
the right Of the employees to restrict
the use of labor-saving machinery. In
country like England such a conten-
ton on the part of employees was per
haps not unnatural, for they plainly
saw that the machinery was crowding
many of them out; in measure it was
a struggle for existence. The intro
duction of machines, no matter in what
kind of business, that do the work of
two or perhaps of two dozen men,
means that so many men have been
thrown out of employment. When a
man has followed one occupation for so
many years that he has practically be-
come q machine. the loss of his occu-
patton means that he is an out of date
machine and cannot be utilized. In
country like England a man who has
lost his occupation through the intro
dUction of machinery has no chance
to enter any other trade or industry,
FOR they are already overcrOwded; he
must emigrate or so to the wall It
is no wonder. then, that men born and
bred TO certain occupations resist in
novations in them. On the other hand,
if those engaged in any great industry
do not keep abreast of the times, their
industry goes to the wall and with it
all who are employed in carrying it on.
IS it not better that some be thrown
out Of employment by the introduction
Of labor-saving machinery than that
all be? If an industry perishes, it
pulls down with it many more than
those Immediately connected with it,
while one of the worst results of such
oerishing is its effect on other indus
-ries.
The conditions that to the English
engineers seemed normal, and into
which they fitted so easily, We're as
great hardships to their sires and
grandsires as the new conditions
gainst which they protest today are to
hem. while the conditions that now
seem SO hard TO them Will seem easy
md natural to their children As con-
litions change. and they change very
apidly these days. people must adapt
themselves to them. For a nation
whose ways have been fixed for
thousand and mere years this is in
Iced difficult but there can be no sue
ess for nation in these days whose
eople are lacking in adaptability and
nobility.

IAN EXPLANATION TO THE
PUBLIC.n

The publication of a long article in
the Deseret News last evening, over
the signature of the first presidency OF
the Mormon church, in relation to Mr..
Isaac Trumbo. was in a measure
startling to the community, for the
reason that few people could under
stand why such a statement is neces-
sary under the circumstances.
1t is true that it has always been
rumored that Mr.. Trumbo was an
agent of the church and that he was
to be rewarded for his services in be-
half of statehood by being made sena-
tor. Probably the best refutation of
that statement is the fact that Mr.
Trumbo was not elected senator.
1t will be remembered that Mr..
Trumbo was very much in evidence
about the time of the first state cleo
ton and some color was given to the
impression that he was at least in
great favor with high church officials
by his bombastic campaign circular,
containing copies of kilograms, letters
etc, from church officials, and so far
as is known the authenticity of the let
ters and kilograms was never dis
puted.
Mr. Trumbo claimed more for him
self than the public gave him credit
for, and regardless of all that he has
said. or that has been said for him,
the fact is that, so far as outward evil
dence goes, Mr.. Trumbo had in reality
very little actual influence in promot-
ing the course of statehood, or the in
terest of the Mormon church.
1t would seem that there is a desire
to placate Mr.. Trumbo now at a time
when mis- political influence is certain
Is not SO potent as it was and there /
IS little real evidence, so far as the |
public can discern, that it ever did |
amount to much. If there is anything
back of this whole matter the public
would doubtless be greatly interested,
)ut if, as is suggested, the purpose of
his statement of the first presidency,
s merely to dispel any false impress
lion and at the same time do Mr.
rrumbo justice, we fear the church
'fHcials have not succeeded overly well
because they have given marked prom
hence to a matter which did not in
crest the general public but very lit
lie, and for no very good reason

He Was Examined.

Youths Companion: Francois AragO
the great French scientist. was a pre-
cocious youth h was prepared for the
rlgld examinations Of the Ecole Polytech-
nlque before he was II years old. NJ de
Mlrecourt tells characteristic anecdote
concerning AragO's examination.
The examiner was almost brutal in his
manner toward the young candidates. A
favorite companion of Arago was badly
frightened at his severe questions and
failed 10 pass the examination. At length
Arago's turn came.
Young man. said the examiner stern
", you are probably as ignorant as your
companion. | advise you TO go and com
plete your studies before you risk this
examination"
Monsieur" replied the boy. ''timidity
was all that prevented my companion
from passing. He knew much more than
he seemed to know"
.''rimidity." exclaimed the examiner.
The excuse of fools, Perhaps you are
timid also"
Far from it," returned Arago. shortly.
Take care. 1t would be wise to spare
yourself the disgrace of being rejected"
The disgrace for me would lie in not
being examined" said the young candi-
date. proudly.
Aragos solution of the problems set be-
fore him was so accurate and so brilliant
that at last his examiner sprang from his
chair and, throwing his arms around the
boys neck in delight. exclaimed:
Bravo If you are not received into
the Ecole Polytechnique no one will be adj
mitted"
And then he began career which added
greatly to the stock of human knowledge.
