The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1902-08-21

The public is coming more and
more to acknowledge that there are
two sides to the labor question, both
being incorporative, both right and
wrong in their methods and their
principles. The right to work is an
iualienable right, and those who seek
to restrain it are in the wrong. The
right to combine for self advancement
is an inalienable right that no Amer
lean should seek to abridge, nor does
any reasonable man seek SO to do. But
the use of combination to injure is an
other injustice, and injustice in any
sort of combination is as wrong as in
any other sort. Combination to re-
stlict output of the individual for pri-
vate reward. Neither is right, both
are wrong, and when any corpora
ton, union or what-not seeks to use
its power to the detriment of indi-
vidual progress, to that extent it is to
be condemned, and to that extent it is
wrong. Elkhart Review.

Produce What People Wants.

DR.. RuSSsll HI. Cornwell says in
his lecture on "Acres of Diamonds -
that one of the great secrets Of sue.
cess, considered from a material stand
point is to see what other people want
and then produce the article to supply
that want. While he was referring
particularly to manufactured products,
the same rule will hold good to limit
ed extent TO the products of the faI NJ
This explains at least in part why
some men have been able to enrich
themselves by supplying something
that was in demand, but which others
had neglected. 1t has resulted, too,
in the establishment of certain lines
of farming which are altogether diff
ferent from that followed by the aver
age farmer.

How Canals Developed the Northwest

The first locks at st. Mary's Falls
were opened in 1856. in which year
the registered tonnage was lO7,5O6
tons. The half-million mark was
reached in 1868, and the one-milliOn
mark was passed in 1873. In 1881.
exactly cO-incident with the opening
of new and larger lock, the north
west began TO grow by leaps and
bounds and the tonnage of the canal
rose from 1000. 900 tons in 1882 TO o.
900. 900 in 1890 and to $1,000. 900 in
1896. During the past five years, two
more enormous locks have been in OPP
Grafton, one of them on the Canadian
side Of the river, and in this short
time the tonnage of the canal has
leaped up TO nearly 2s,500, 900 tons.
This colossal tonnage is simply man.
Hesitation of the development which
has come to the building of thousands
uf miles of railroad, including two
lines from the head of Lake Superior
TO the Pacific coast. If by some cata-
clysm of nature the great lakes should
be dried up, the enormous traffic now
carried on their waters would not be
divided among the railroads.&c. would
simply cease to exist. The whole
galaxy Of cities from Buffalo TO Chica-
90 and Duluth would be overwhelmed
in hopeless, irretrieyevable ruin. and
the railroads could in no wise escape
the general disasters. A. Thomp-
son, in the Engineering Magazine.

SINNERS and Yanders.

The Omaha Daily News mOraizeS
that we hear a great deal about the
CarnegieS and the ROckfellers and
their gifts, but very little about the
SINNERS and the Yandes. and it asks
who is Simmer and Yandes? 1t an
swers: Abraham Simmer is wealthy
Hebrew of Waverly, Iowa. He has
given away hundreds Of thousands of
dollars to benevolent institutions, and
in the next few years intends to give
away SO, 900, 900, with no diScrimlna-
ton as TO race or religion. To further
his charitable schemes he saws he is
perfectly willing to live in one room
and on So a week the rest OF his life
Simon YandeS is a bachelor Of seven
ty years, lawyer of indianapolis and
Presbyterian. He has given hun
dreds of thousands of dollars to
struggling colleges and other hundreds
Of thousands to charity, and says he
will only live two years longer and is
timing his gifts SO that at the end of
that time there will be just sufficient
money to bury him. The Omaha pa
per points out truthfully that Slim
mer and Yandes are making personal
sacrifices to carry cut their plans, and
says that when John Rockefeller is
willing to give up his country place
on the Hudson and his mansion in
Cleveland and wear Simon Yandes
shabby boots and seedy clothes, then
and not until then can he be mention
ed on the same day with the philan-
thropist of Indianapolis.

GOVERNMENT BY INJUNCTION.

lie imposing light penalty on sew
eral miners for violating an order of
the court Judge Keller, of West
Virginia, followed the example of
Judge Jackson in giving clear ex-
position of the law. He was particular
in explaining that the law would not
permit one set of men to intimidate
another set by demonstrations in force
to prevent them from working. Such
expositions of the law must tend to
convince fair-minded men that what
has been stigmatized as government
by injunction" is simply a means of
enforcing and protecting personal
rights. The law recognizes all men as
equal, whether they be members of
labor unions or not, and it will not
permit one set of men by force or in
timidation to attempt to prevent 9TH
ers from the exercise of their natural
rights.

What the Coal Trust is Doing.

The hard-coal trust today undoubt-
edly is giving the American people a
most pernicious demonstration OF the
manner in which even the best of in
situations may be turned TO an evil
use.
Coal is ready-made product. Ii
the grains whereby men lived requir-
ed neither planting nor cultivation
grew spontaneously aud had merely
TO be harvested-they would be the
same sort of natural product as coal.
The historic argument in favor of
private ownership of such natural
products is that it stimulates enter
prise and competition between pro-
ducers and thus benefits the people by
giving them lower prices, better SER
vice. or both.
The historic argument against pub
lie ownership of such products is that
by eliminating competition it STILES
enterprise and thus compels the peo-
pie to accept higher prices. poorer
service, or both.
Now, the coal trust, having first
brought anthracite coal under private
ownership has formed monopoly, ell
minated competition, and stified en-
terprse, thus depriving the people OF
the benefits promised in return for
permitting such private ownership.
1t has done more and worse. 1t has
absolutely failed to comply with the
condition upon which private owner
ship Of coal is justified. and for months
it has failed to produce any coal at all.
The coal trust has conducted its
business with the sole purpose of get
ting the largest possible profits from
the people. Then. having quarreled
with its employees over the division OF
the profits, it has ceased to perform
the service upon which private owner
ship is conditioned. Half dozen
men virtually say to an entire nation:
If we cannot perform this service
exactly as We please, we shall let it GO
unperformed."
Upon every economic theory ad-
vanced since the days of Turgot, the
conduct of the coal trust is indefensi-
bic. 1t has done more than all other
agencies combined to induce many
Americans to look with tolerance up
on dangerous suggestions of COM
munistic organization of industry. 1t
has given the world an object lesson
as inopportune as it is perilous. In
ter Ocean.

Chicago Boy Away From Home.

A small boy of eight has come all
the way from Chicago by himself TO
spend a while with hiss uncle and lit.
tie girl cousin in Fifteenth street. 1t
is the first time he has ever been
away from his mother. but if he feels
homesick he hides it like little man.
When he arrived his uncle helped him
unpack his travelling bag, and to his
establishment. came upon cigarette
case half filled with clumsy looking
cigarettes, rolled of writing paper and
filed with dried corn silk. Fearing
that the little rolls might not be SO
innocent as they looked, he question
ed the boy. The child answered
quite frankly.
They're nothing but corn silk, -
he said, "but they're the best / could
co. You know how mamma is about
things like that. l knew we'd have
long ride from Chicago here, and ID
want to spend good deal of the time
in the smoking room with the other
men, and fellow is such a silly with
outa thing to smoke. They're only
corn silk, but l guess they're all right
for the porter told me l made more
smoke than anybody else in the car.
That same small boy is named Reg
inald, but on the very first day Of his
stay in the capital be drew his uncle
aside and confidentially asked tnat he
be called by another name during his
visit.
"Reginald's sissy name," said he,

minute without having mamma come
to the door and say: Come in, Regi-
nald, and then the boys guy me on
account of my fool name. Here they
don It any of them know 1t. and if you
want to give me good time l wish TO
goodness you'd just call me Pete. y

Millions for United States.

D. NJ. Parry. president Of the Nat
ional Association of Manufacturers, at
indianapolis, has received an opinion
from Sullivan & Cromwell, New York
city, general counsel in America OF
the new Panama Canal company.
which means many millions of dollars

States.
The opinion is to the effect that
every dollars worth Of machinery and
supplies necessary for the construction
of the canal may be purchased in the
United States without restraint
from the operation of the French
laws under which the company
was originally chartered. Amer
lean manufacturers have been consid-
erably agitated over the provisions of
the law governing the French COM
pany, and it has been feared that pur-
chases of machinery and supplies
would have to be made in France.

A well-informed Washington cor
respondent announces that Senator
Burrows, who strenuously opposed the
bill to reduce the tariff on Cuban prod
ucts, will fight any attempt TO accom-
plish the same purpose by means of a
treaty. He will take the ground 'that
a commercial treaty which raises or
lowers the rate of tariff is contrary to
the fundamental law if it IS negotiat-
ed by the executive branch of the gov
eminent and ratified by the senate,
the house not participating in the
making of the law. 1t will be claimed
that if the President, with the con-
sent of the senate, can raise or lower
the Cuban tariff, the two can, by the
same process, revise the entire taaiff
system"

which is where the troops now are,
says that few cOllierieS could be
operated at once, and that but little
coal can be produced for sat least two
months" after work is resumed. All
the mines are more or less damaged

weeks and months before the miners
can be allowed to enter them. SO. he
gives no credence to the report of inn

Practical Statesmanship.

Washington dispatches indicate
that President Roosevelt will try to
secure reciprocity of trade with Cuba
by means of a treaty instead of by
tariff legislation. The Journal point
ed out the feasibility of this plan sew
eral months ago and even suggested
that it was more in accordance with
international usage than an act of con-
greSs would be. The latter would be
imperative anyhow without CORE
spending action by the Cuban con-
greSS, whereas a treaty can be pre-
pared by the representatives of both
governments that will cover the whole
subject of reciprocity and which can
be made effective by the assent Of the
senate without any action on the part
of the house. 1t is said that such a
treaty has been prepared and requires
only the finishing touche and the
signatures of the Cuban Minister
Quesada and Secretary Of State Hay
to make it ready for the presentation
to the senate. This will probably be
done at special session of the senate,
to be called after the November cleo
tionS. As consideration of the treaty
will be executive business it will not
be necessary to convenue the house at
the same time, and the senate can
dispose of the treaty before the be-
ginning Of the regular session, on the
first Monday in Observation-Disclosures

Gratifying RecapItulatIon.

From time to time the people of
the United States have been informed
officially and unofficlally, of what they
have done for Cuba through their rep.
resentatives, but it is quite proper
that a recapitulation of these things
should be made as it has been made
by the bureau of insular affairs of the
war department. From the chaotic
state of ruin in which Cuba lay at the
close of the war, order has been re-
stored and form of government es.
tabllshed capable of developing into a
permanent system. Cities have been
cleansed. severed and placed. Con-
tagiouS diseases have been checked.
Harbors have been improved. Post
offices have been established. School
houses have been provided in equal
number to the corresponding area in
this country. Life has been infused
into every branch of public service.
The record is one to be proud of, and
it should be borne in mind, too, that
the good work has been accomplished
by the war department-by the Off
GERS and men of the same United
States army which has been SO severe
ly and unjustly critized for its meth
DDS in the Philippine islands. The
military power of the United States
has performed wonders for the regen-
GRAFTON of Cuba, 1t only remains for
the civil authorities to supplement
that work by generous treatment of
Cuba in order to fully round out

The Marion Chronicle pertinently
observes that good crops didn't help
out in democratic times, though the
smile of nature was as sweet, and the
rewards of the sower and tiller and
reaper were as bountiful as in other
years. The truth was, where people
didn't work they didn { eat, and where
there was no consumption of food there
was 40 demand for farm products.
Today the people are eating and liv-
ing better than ever before, and the
crops must be good in order that the
enormous demand may be supplied.
Prices rise because there is demand.
These be republican times, when

clusively.
