The most vital problem with which. this
country, and for that matter the v''sole
civilized world, has to deal is the Prob
lem which has for one side the bctternient
of social conditions, moral ami physical,
in large cities and for another side tile ct
fort to deal with that tangle of farreach-
ing questions which we group together
when we speak Of "labo|." The chief
factor in the success of each man-Wage-
worker, farmer and capitalist alike-must
ever be the sum total of his own individ-
ual qualities and abilities. Second only to
this CONES The power of acting in COM
bination or association with others. Very
great good has been and will be accom-
plished by associations or unions of wage
workers when managed with forethought
and when they combine insstence upon
their own rights with law-abiding respect
for the rights of others. The display of
these qualities in such bodies is a duty
to the nation no less than to the associa-
items themselves. Finally there must also
in many cases be action by the govern
ment in order to safeguard the rights and
interests of all. Under our Constitution
there is much more scope for such action
by the state and the municipality than by
the nation. But on points such as those
touched OH above the national govern
ment can act.

Three-fold Improvement in Ilnmi-
grafton Laws Recommended.

Our present immigration laws. are I'M
satisfactory. We need every honest and
efficient immigrant fitted to become an
American citizen, every immigrant who
comes here to stay, who brings here
strong body, a stout heart, a. good head
and resolute purpose to do his duty we'll
in every way and to bring up his children
as law-abiding and God-fearng members
of the community. But there Should be
comprehensive law enacted with the OBJ
ject of working a threefold improvement
over our present system. First we should
aim to exclude absolutely not only all
persons who are known to be believers
in anarchistic principles or members Of
anarchistic societies, but also all persons
who are of low moral tendency or Of
unsavory reputation. This means that
we should require more thorough sys-
tenn of inspection abroad and a more
rigid system of examination at our i'm
migration ports, the former being espe-
lie

A grim commentary upon the folly of
the anarchist position was afforded by
the attitude of the law toward this very
criminal who had just taken the life of
this president. The people would have
torn him limb from limb il it had not
been that the law he defied was at once
invoked in his behalf. So far from his
deed having been committed on behalf of
the people against the government, the
government was obliged at once to exert
It's full police power to save him from
instant death at the hands of the people.
Moreover, his deed worked not the slight
est dislocation in our governmental sys-
TEN. and the danger of recurrence Of
might grow, would work only in the d.
rectior of strengthening and giving hard
n6ss to the forces Of order. No man will
ever be restrained from becoming presi-
dent by any fear as to mis- personal safety
If the risk to the presidents life became
great, 1t would mean that the Office would
more and more come to be filled by men
Of spirit which would make them reso-
Lutte and merciless in dealing with every
friend Of disorder. This great country
will not fall into anarchy. and if an
menace to its institutions they would not
merely be stamped out, but would involve
in their own ruin every active or passive
sympathizer with their doctrines. The
American people are slow 20 wrath, but
when their wrath is once kindled 1t

President Mckinley was man OK mod
crate means, a man whose stock sprang
from the sturdy tillers of the soil. who
had himself belonged among the wage
workers. who had entered the army as
a private soldier. Wealth was not struck
at when the president was assassinated,
but the honest toll which is content with
moderate gains after a lifetime of I'M
renting labor largely in the service Of
the public. Still less was power struck
at in the sense that power is irresponsi-
bic or conferred in the hands Of any one
individual. The blow was not aimed at
tyranny or wealth. 1t vas aimed at one
of the strongest champions the wage
worker has ever had at one of the most
faithful representatives Of the system of
public rights and representative govern

For the anarchist himself. whether he
breaches or practices his doctrines, we
need not have one particle more concern
than for any ordinary murderer. He is
not the victim of social or political inJus-
tice. There are no wrongs to remedy in
his case. The cause of his criminality is
to be found in his own evil passions and
in the evil conduct of those who urge him
on, not i'll any failure by others or by the
state to do justice to him or his. He is a
Indicator and nothing else. He is IN no
sense. in no shape or way, product OF
social conditions save as a highwayman
is produced" by the fact that an I'M
armed man happens to have a purse.
1t is travesty upon the great and holy
names of liberty and freedom to permit
them to be invoked in such cause. No
man or body of men preaching anarch-
istic doctrines should be allowed at large
any more than if preaching the murder
of some specified private individual. An
archistic speeches, writings and meetings
are essentially seditious and reasonable.

Moreover, We should recognize the i'm
mense importance to this material de-
'velopment of leaving as unhampered as
is compatible with the public good the
strong and forcetul men upon whom the
success Of business operations inevitably
rests. TIE slightest study of business
conditions will satisfy any one capable
of forming judgment that the personal
equation is the most important factor in
business operation; that the business
concern. big or little, is usually the factor
which fixes the gulf betH cen striking
success and hopeless failure.
An additional reason for caution in deal
ing with corporations is to be found in the
international commercial conditions Of to-
day. The same business conditions which
have produced the great aggregations Of
corporate and individual wealth have
made them very potent factors in inter-
national commercial competition. Bush
ness concerns which have the largest
means at their disposal and are managed
by the ableSt men are naturally those
which take the lead in the strife for COM
mercial supremacy among the nations of
the world. America has only just begun
to assume that commanding position in
the international business world which
we believe will more and more be hers. 1t
is of the utmost Importance that this po-
sition be not jeoparded, especially at. a
time when the overfowing abundance Of
cur own natural resources and the skill,
business energy and mechanical aptitude
of our people make foreign markets es-
sential. Under such conditions it would
be most unwise to cramp or to fetter the
youthful strength of our nation.
