Not a Permanent Mistake.

II FREQUENTLY happens that
employers will recognize. con-
tract with and confer freely with
the representatives. of one trade
union While most emphatically declin-
ing to have anything TO do with another
union processing the same general
policies Is this to BE- accounted for on
the basis OF mere caprice or are there
among modern labor unions funda-
mental differences irrecOncilable by the
men of keen Judgment who administer
the large business enterprises of tho
country?
The late Frank Thompson, president
of the Pennsylvania Railroad company,
once told the editor of the Philadelphia
Ledger as that journal announces. that
no well managed railroad company
could afford 10 employ man who was
not a member of the Locomotive En-
gineers' ana l'iremen's unions, as their
qualifications for membership were so
eXacting as TO the character. Sobriety
and expert efficiency OF the applicant as
tn render their members the best and
ion, we believe. is now held generally
by railway managers. A similar Opin-
ion obtains among certainly Il majority
of publishers With reference to the In
ternational Typographical union and
most of the other organizations of
workers in the printing trades. Many
other unions have established ii to a
degree that employers doing business
with them would be the first to regret
their disappearance OF decay. To say
that there is any longer in this country
formidable repugnaEce or aversion
among employers to collective bargain
ing over work and wages is, We believe
To misconceiNe the truth.
But ii is the very fact that the
unions we have mentioned strive more
to upbuild character, sohriety and
efficiency among their members and to
win by these appealing means than to
expand their jurisdiction and increase
their authority by displays Of force
which Is accountable, in our Judgment
for the larger measure of their per-
manent success. \ mistake often made
In this country is to overvahe personal
shrewdneSs and cunning or aggressive
force and to undervalue the duller but
safer "homely virtues" which have their
origin in the moral law. But in the
nature of things it is not Il permanent
mistake.

BY all accounts the wholesale at

King Boycott in that town has proved
abortive. The boycott thundered in

vative workingmen of Schenectady, OF
whom there are thousands. would not
stand for 1t. A number of the unions
have already called special meetings
