and persistent advocate of the doctrine Of arhi
ration, although L IS ddlu!t to see why the
,urden of lhia reform should be thrown upon the
laboring man. Surely the employer, if he would
take a comprehensive view of his own interests,
would be as much benefited by arbitration as the
employee, and because every prolonged contest
between labor and capital brings interruptions to
business and pecuniary loss 70 those who are in
no way responsible for the disagreement society
in general is even moro Interested than employers
or employees.
The Blacklist.
The blacklist, by means of which employers
combine TO deprive the discharged workman of re-
employment is one OF the more recent menaces to
the lahoring man. The independence of the wage
Garner decreases as the difficulty of obtaining en-
ployment increases, and the skilled workman,
whose life has been spent in acquiring efficiency
in certain trade or occupation, becomes prac-
tically the chatte of the employer il every oppor-
tunty to make use of his experience is closed by
agreement between employers.
Government BY injunction is so indefensible that
the anti tiinjunction bill indorsed by the Chicago
platform passed the senate without yea and may
vote being demanded, and since that time no
party platform has specifically indorsed govern.
ment by injunction, and no prominent member
Of any party has entered upon a defense Of THE
system. and yet corporate influence is strong
that II has thus far been impossible to secure
| any remedial legislation.
The fact that United States senators are elected
by legislatures rather than by the people directly
| lessons the laboring mans influence in securing
| federal legislation.
! Direct LEGISLATION brings the government closer
to the voter. There is more virtue in the people
| than ever finds expression through their repre-
| scntatives.
To support a permanent army of 100000 men
requires approximately one-lalf as much money as
is annually expended for education in the United
States.
Tie lahoring man las abundant reasons to fear
iac trusts. Mr.. Charles K. Flint, in a speech de-
liycrcd in Boston more thar, year ago in defense
of the trusts, frankly asserts that Of the ad-
yantages oi these combinations is that ''in ease
Of local strike or fires the work goes on else
where, thus preventing serious loss" Is it rogsi-
bic that any wage Garner can fail TO see how com
pletey the trust places the employee at the
| mercy Of the employer?
