THE man who upholds trusts and COM
binations as means of sustaining uni
form prices and preventing ruinous com
petition in business, says the Punxsu-
tawney Spirit, cannot very consistently
denounce labor unions. A labor union
is combination to keep up the price of
labor and to protect the interest of those
whose sole commodities are nerve and
muscle. The President of the nail trust,
the leather trust, the glass trust, or any
other trust, is not in position to refuse
recognition of President of labor
union, because they are both in the same
business-trying to protect the industry
in which they are interested from ruin
Gus competition, and to promote its we'll
fare in all ways. And the labor union
has the better case of the two, because
good wages is the foundation of general
business prosperity, and low wages tend
to increase poverty, ignorance and
crime. Hence an organization whose
existence helps its members to become
educated by giving them more means
and more leisure to cultivate their intel
lects, is in large measure beneficent.
Measured by the standard of the greatest
good to the greatest number the wisely
conducted labor union is the most benif-
cent of all trusts, for it co npels capital to
treat it with respectful consideration and
prevents the toiler from being trampled
upon by arrogance and false pride. II
teaches the laborer that his true interests
lie in loyalty to his brother workmen
and to his craft, and makes uuited action
principle of honor with him that his
self-respect requires him to sustain even
at cost of great sacrifice.

Put the Costs on the Prosecutor.

"No greater imposition upon the tax
payers reflects from the court records OF
Pennsylvania than the numerous cases
in which costs are placed upon counties" +"
says the Philadelphia Press: disputes
arise between neighbors, and one side or
other carries the quarrel into court. As
the outcome ofa large percentage of the
actions that goes before juries-especially
with regard to bill that are ignored-the
costs of proceedings are impressed upon
the taxpayers in general who are no wise
responsible for the beligerent difficulties
at issue.
ain this connection it is gratifying to
note that Judge Evans of Pittsburg has
instructed grand jury against the too
free assessing of such costs upon coun-
ty. He said this course was unwarrant-
ed, and referred the many frivolous pros
ecutions that had little or no solid foun-
dation for district attorney to build
upon. The jury was advised that where
they find suit had been instituted with
so little cause that it was necessary TO ig-
more the bill, then the costs must be
placed upon the prosecutor and not on
the county. In cases where both the
prosecutor and defendant were at fault,
the costs, he said, ought to be divided" !"

The State Convention will assemble in
Harrisburg to-day, Wednesday. The
candidates to be named are for positions
neither numerous nor important, con-
sisting of an Audit ir-General and two
members of Cungress-at. Large, and six
delegates to the National Convention.
The convention will also accept on rec
concentrations from the Congressional
districts names of persons for Presiden-
tial electors. The contest Tor control of
the convention was long since decided in
favor of the Regulars in the party, the In.
surgeant faction making but an insignifi-
cant showing of strength, and they will
not be able to make any impression OF
the proceedings and it can be said il
advance that whatever is done will b,
done in obedience to the wishes Of tn,
majority, and that no mistakes will b.

THE selection of Charles H. Allen for
Governor of Puerto Rico is an admirable
choice. 1t gives satisfaction to all parties
and sections. 1t will give pleasure to the
Puerto Ricans. This selection is an as
surance that all the officials chosen by
the administration for service in Puerto
Rico will be worthy of their posts. 1t is
well for the United States to begin right
in this matter. The country owes an OBJ
legation to the islanders for their hearty
welcome to the American troops in the
war of 1898, and it is paying this debt at
the present moment. OF course the gov
ernment which is about to go into opera
tion in the island will soon be changed
in the direction of giving the people OF
that locality more sway over their home
affairs than they have now. Their politi-
cal education has just started, and their
political privileges will keep psce with
their advances in Americanizrtion.
