NoNote from This Government.

Washington, May 10,-Respecting the statement telegraphed from Pretoria that the foreign capitals have Jointly notified President Kruger that he would be held personally responsible by their governments for the safety of the Jo- hannesburg mines, it can be stated that the United States consul general, Adel- bert Hay, did not join in the represent ation, if any such were made. While citizens of the United States are believ- ed to be pecuniarily interested in Jo- hannesburg and the department of state is naturally disposed to do everything within the line of propriety to protect their interests, it will adhere to its uni- form policy in such matters of acting singly.

pose to be accomplished, or Of the
means used to accomplish that pur-
pose, that makes a combination il
legal" The purposes Of trade
unions are admittedly lawful, ard
such methods as strikes and threats
OF striking are not 10 themselves uu-
lawful, since every man has the right
to work for any reason and at any
time, aud this right is not lost when
he enters into combination to exer-
else it. Hence it is not unlawful for
union to demand aud procure ex-
elusive employment, or the dis' rge
Of obnoxious workmeu, by threats
OF striking or actual striking.
The principle that whatever is
lawful when done by one person is
lawful when done by combination
OF several, seems almost axiomatic,
yet it has been tacitly aud openly
denied in nearly every labor case
previous to that under discussion.
That was due TO the persistence OF
old common law notions OF Con
splracy"-notions utterly inapplica-
BILE to modern conditions. In this
age OF co operation and consolida-
tion it is futile and absurd to en-
ploy obsolete tests. The advanced
position taken by the New York
court works deliberate, intelligent
recognition OF the doctrine OF per-
sonal liberty-equal riRhts--in the
sphere OF the relations between la
borers and capitalists.
A little reflection will show that
the boycott is entirely justified in
the light Of the same guiding princi-
pies. There is no question that one
man may, for any reason, withdraw
his patronage from any person or
sny number of persons. He does
not lose this right on joining an or
ganization hence any association Of
men may collectively order and
maintain boycott. Indeed, exam
inc any Of the above enumerated
claims OF organ zed labor, and it is
plainly seen to be valid aud proper,
II the New York judgment be &C.
copied as well-founded.
OF course, all that labor demands
for itself it is willing to grant in
EQUAL measure to others. 1t does
DOT oppose combination among en-
ployers. 1t does not depend on
legislation. 1t asks no special pri-
vileges, no favors from the state.
1t wants to be let alone aud to be-
allowed to exercise its rights and
USE it's great economic powt r.
Workmen must rely on their
own strength resulting from mutua-
lism and organization. They must
make it economically impossible
for employers to antagon;ze uniors.
