81 BY far. the greatest problem, the most
for-reachins In Its stupsndous import
anee. Is that problem, or rather that
! group of problems which NE have
3 grown to speak of as the labor ques-
tton. 1t must be always u peculiar
q privilege for any thoughtful public man
to address a body OF men predominate-
Z W composed OF wage workers, for the
i foundation OF our whole social struc-
ture rests upon the material and moral
well being, the Intelligence, the fore
sight, the sanity, the sense Of duty and
the wholesome patriotism Of the, wage
worker. This Is doubly the case now;
Z for, in addition to each mans indlvid-
14uali action, you have learned the. great
J lesson OF acting In combination. 1t,
I would be impossible to overestlmate

the whole, the amount Of good done
through your association. In address,
Ing you the ono thing that Il wlsh4to
avoid is any mere gllttering general
ity, any more high-sounding phrascol-

and yet the higher. the broader and
deeper, interests are those which apply

else. Let us scrupulously guard the
special interests OF the wage worker,
the farmer. the manufacturer and the
merchant. giving to ench man his due
I and also seeing that he does not wrong
his fellows; bnt.let US keep ever clear
aly before our minds the great fact, that
