FAIR TREATMENT FOR
CAPITAL AND LABOR

Excerpt from President Roosevelts Message.
How to secure fair treatment alike for
labor and for capital, how to hold in
check the interruptions man, whether
employer or employe. without weaken
ing individual initiative, without ham,
pering and cramping the industrial de-
velopment of the country, is a problem
fraught with great difficulties and one
which is Of the highest importance to
solve on lines of sanity and f~ar-sighted
common sense as well as devotion to the
right. This is an era of federation and
combination. Exactly as business men
find they must often work through cor
porations, and as it is q constant ten
dency of these corporations to grow
larger, 80 it is often necessary for labor
ing men to work in declarations, and these
have become important factors of mod
ern industrial life. Both kinds of fedora
ton, capitalisiic and labor, can do much
good, and rs a necessary corollary they
can both do evil. Opposition to each
kind of organization should take the form
of opposition 10 whatever is bad in the
conduct Of any given corporation or
union-not OF attacks upon corporations
as such nor upon unions as such; for
some OF the most ~fsr-reaching. bene6-
cent work for our people has been accom-
plished through both corporations and
unions. Each must refrain from arbi-
trary or tyrannous interference with the
rights of others. Organized capital and
organized labor alike should remember
that in the long run the interest of each
must be brought into harmony with the
interest Of the general public, and the
conduct OF each must conform to the
fundamental rules OF obedience to the
law, of individual freedom and Of justice
and fair dealing toward all. Each should
remember that in addition TO power It
must strive after the realization Of
healthy, lofty and generous ideals.

Suit Of Mammoth Mining Company Fails in The Federal Court
Judge Marshall Refusing to Grant Temporary Injunction

The suit OF the Mammoth Mining

straining order heretofore issued. This
means victory for the Grand Central.
The suit was brought against the
Grand Central Mining company TO

corporation or Grand Central Mining
company of Colorado demurred to the
bill and also answered. They also in
terposed a demurrer and at the same
time plea to the bill, to which the
plaintiff duly filed exceptions. The de-
tense set Up by both the answer and
