MAYoa THoMPsoN,s MESSAGE.

MAYOR fHOMPSON'S annual mes
- sage to The colncI contains some
valuable suggestions, but it fails to
take high rank as state paper. 1t
will be noted that the executive says
nothing abo 1t the police department
muddle which is ,mbroiling the coun-
ell and maddening the people. He
might al least have outlined some
plans on the subject wi.ich the council
men could discuss whether they fol-

In his recommendation.tha crema-
tory be built at once the mayor neg
lects TO say that If il had not been for

would have been in operation today.
IL IS difficult to give a good reason FOR
the long delay in building the new jail
other than the possible fact that the
council desires its balance sheet to
look wen for as long a time as possible.
The executive managed to get
through his message without proposing

This is taken 90 mean that the distin-

Mayor Thompson shows little desire
to be true TO the pledges made by his
party managers TO win the bicycle
vote. He suggests the immediate con-
struction of cinder paths. but attaches
a string 20 it by insisting that the
bicycle riders shall be specially taxed

point on which the movement is likely

The need for extensions of the sewer
district is well recognized. The health
of the city is largely conserved by the

TIE OH EXCHANGE.

To The Editor of The Herald:
Ny attention has been called to a let
ter IN your issue OF yesterday, signed
Observer, in which tie writer hints
that some one OF the officers of the
proposed oil exchange has been seek
ING TO use his position as such officer
Tor the purpose of furthering his own
private ends
l have, IN common with several 9TH
ers who, ike myself, have no ak 10
grind IN the matter. taken considerable
interest and expended considerable
time and labor in the formation OF this
proposed organization. Like others
similarly situated. I have no intention
Of operating on the exchange. l am
much interested in seeing this exchange
established here upon proper basis.
Tor the reason that 1 believe such an
enterprise, properly conducted, would
be the means of organizing and cen
lralizing the oil interests in this inter-
mountain region.
IL Is, therefore. a matter Of interest
to every public spirited citizen to see
mat this exchange is established and
conducted in che right manner. The
ideas which observer" suggests are
good. but his method OF conveying
them to promoters of this movement
might be improved upon. It seems to
me that he would better serve the ends
which | assume he is seeking to pro-
mote If, instead of making public
through the newspapers Ctllique azs.s
lmpersOnal accusations against some
nameless individual supposed to be
connected with the exchange, he would
communicate his suspicious or charges

change would feel indebted TO anyone

Know or suspect. IT who would offer

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

interest to coal buyers alone. The trust question
and the labor union question in nearly all their as
poets are involved.
Take this matter, for instance. The Governor
of Pennsylvania has ordered all the State troops
to the mining region, and they are on duty to
protect non-union miners against any interfer-
ence whatever by the labor organization. This
suggests an interesting parallel. The strong arm
of the law is used to protect independent or non
union laborers against organized labor. But how
often has the strong arm of the law been used
to protect independent or antitrust manufact-
urers against the wrong attempted by organized
capital?
Suppose there is an independent tobacco manu-
facturer in Pittsburg; he will not join the CAPT
talists' trust. What happens? The trust very
likely goes to the place and sells it's goods be-
low cost in order to break down it's small competi-
tor; he cannot long stand such ruinOus competi-
ton, while the trust can recOup later by an arbi-
trary advance in the price of it's goods. Is the
strong arm of the law used to protect this in
dependent manufacturer and to save his trade
from interference by organized capital? Not at
all.
Suppose there is an independent oil refner
in Pittsburg; he will not join the capitalists
trust. What happens? Well, let us see what
has happened. Take the calm, unbiased sketch of
John D.. Rockefeller in the Saturday Evening
Post of October 4th:
Until the secret history of the Standard Oil
Company is written-and it probably never will be
no one except John d. Rockefeller will know
how that crisis was passed and how prosperity
and power were obtained through those contracts
with the railways which made competition with
Rockefeller hopeless and forced almost all the
oil men, producers, refners and sellers, to choose
between submission and ruin. But it is known
that the crisis was passed and that the railways
out of the oil regions became, so far as oil carry
ing was concerned, his own private lines, trans
porting his oil, and only his, at rates fixed by him
self"
Was the strong arm of the law used to save the
independent manufacturer from ruin? to enable
him to continue his work and sell his goods at
reasonable prices? to break up the great trust
that was thus entreching itself in a position dan
gerous to the public welfare? Not at all.
But just as soon as the freedom of the indie
pendent laborer is threatened by the so-called
labor trust, just as soon as the continuance of his
work is threatened by organized labor, right then
do troops and armies march to guard the rights
of the aforesaid independent laborer.
The writer is not a calamity bowler; he is
eternally approved to socialism on one hand and
anarchy on the other-it is rather because we are
opposed to their evils, that we call attentionto the
fact that there is something radically wrong in
that scheme of things which protects the indie
pendent laborer against organized labor, but al
lows organized capital free rein to crush and
plumber all independent capitalists that menace
it's supremacy.

CURRENT EVENTS: THE BRITT OF THINGS AS
WE SEE 1T.

THE LONG-LIVED COAL STRIKE.-As
Aaron's rod swallowed up the rods OF all Pha-
raoh's magicians, so the coal subject last week
swallowed up the interest in all other subjects.
In all the newspapers, in the news columns and
in the editorial pages, it had the right of way
and still has it, for, like the famous ghost of Ban
quo, it will not down; no, not at the bidding OF
President Roosevelt himself. Every day-in fact,
every hour-the situation is becoming more seri-
Gus and the public interest more acute; and just
in proportion as interest increases and disaster
comes nearer, just in that proportion it seems
is the determination of each side strengthened
and It's frmness more securely grounded. The
situation reminds us of the Dutchman who built
his fence five feet thick and four feet high, so
that if it should blow over it would be higher
than before.
But there is this difference the miners are firm
in an attitude which we cannot but regard as fair
and manly, and frmness in such circumstances is
commendable; the coal mine owners in their com-
bination are firm in the determination not to
submit to arbitration or to allow their laborers
that right to organize whcich capital has exercis-
ed, and frmness in such a position as this
amounts to nothing less than selfish stubbornness.
In this case, too, it means arrogant disregard of
the needs of the people and of commerce.

"The Progressive Farmer will be, in the broadest sense
