Issued a stringent order to the

explanation of their lack of occu-
patton or leave the city. This is a
proper piece OF police work in every

will be more necessary from year

pubhc's therefore none OF the
police's business if man is idle,
providing he can afford to be so,
and is decent, reputable citizen,
whether a regular resident of the
city or a visitor. But the idlers
who are on the watch to prey upon
honest people, the loafers who can
not afford to be idle if honest, but
who had rather be dishonest than
industrious, the parasites who live
off the earnings OF others--in what
tver way-the loafers and buns,
whether in rags or dressed in the
height Of fashion and posing in
front OF cigar stands and saloons
ought to be made to move on"

PULLMAN ORDINARY
SLEEPERS.
Dated August %, 1902,

The tourist travel between the
East and the Pacific Coast has
reached enormous proportions IN
the last few years, and calls for a
seecial class OF equipment. To
meet this demand the Pullman
Company has issued from its shops
what it technically calls the Pull
man Ordinary Sleeper" These
cars appear similar to the regular
sleepers being bnilt on the same
plan, but not furnished with the
same elegance. They are equipped
with mattresses, blankets, sheets,
pillows, pillow-cases, towels, combs,
brushes etc, requiring nothing of
the kind to be furnished by the
passenger. Each car has . stove
for making tea and coffee and do
ing light housekeeping" and each
section can be fitted with an adj
Unstable table. A uniformed por-
ter accompanies each car, his busi-
ness being to make up berths,
Keep the car clean, and look after
the ants and comforts OF the pass
enger4 In each OF the trains
which a. dispatched daily from
Portland by the 0. r. u n. Co. is
to be found one OF these pullman
Ordinary Sleepers." The car at
tached to the "Chicago-Po
Special" goes through TO Chicago
without change, and the one in the

City without change. Passengers
in TINS car for Chicago change to q

The right for labor to organize
cannot be gainsaid, but there isone
principle which they try to enforce
that is certainly not legitimate.
The privilege Of choosing his labor
ers should bo with the employer
and the right TO labor or not to
labor certainly belongs to the in
diVidual laborer The same fault
that is found with the corporations
and trusts must also be charged
against this principle of labor
organizations. Their effort to req
ulate the length of a working day
and the wages to be received by
workman of different degrees of
proficiency are certainly commen-
dable; but to demand that a man
who can do only half or such a
matter as much work as faster or
better workman, should receive the
same wages, is wrong again. The
organization of labor as well as
Gapital needs regulation.

have also increased, owing to the de-
cline in the price of commodities. OF
course, these census figures are not
to be taken as absolutely accurate.
But the general fact here shown, that
the average rate Of wages is higher
now than it was fifty years ago. can
not reasonably be disputed. The only
point open to question is the precise
extent of the increase that has taken
place. The optimist is quite war
ranted in asserting that the status
of the American laborer is improving.
Arguments drawn from wage statistics
are not likely, however, to have much
effect in allaying popular discomfort
with existing conditions. The claims
of the working class, in consequence
of rising standard of living, are ad
vancing even faster than their wages"

Question of Public Safety.

Admissions of men prominent in
the coal trust show clearly that that
combination is the most grasping, in
solent and dangerous monopoly in the
United States. A combination which
deliberately forces strike In
order to rob the public by
advancing prices, causing mis-
cry and distress to hundreds of
thousands of miners and their de-
pendents at the same time, is public
enemy. If the public officers charged
with dealing with such abuses fail
Of their duty it is certain that they
will be replaced by others who will
act. The question is not one Of poll
tics, but of public safety.

Every union man is and ought to be
in sympathy with any class of workers
striving for better wages and condi-
tons, but they may not all agree
on the methods pursued to attain that
end. While 1t may be unnecessary to
waste sympathy on employers as
class, as they are generally capable
of looking out for themselves, union
men as well as others must
admit that employers have certain
rights which ought to be respected.
They at least should be asked by
their employees for an increase in
wages, If the employees want such an
increase, and If they refuse and 1t be-
comes necessary to strike, then the
employe is not to blame. In the case
of the Chicago freight-handlers, a
wage schedule was prepared by the
officials of the union. That 1t was
fair and just schedule may be admit
ted, but the fact remains that the
railroads had nothing to say in draw
ing 1t up. It was not presented to the
comnanies who were expected to pay

Trusts Contempt for the Public.

1T is none of the public's business"
says an anthracite coal road president,
in answer to the question why they
will not consent to arbitrate a strike
the entire loss whereof falls finally on
the public. "The public is not con-
cerned," says President Vreeland of
the Metropolitan Railway Company, in
answer to an inquiry about poisonous
sulphuric acid fumes forced by certain
of it's crosstown cars into the noses
and lungs of the public for months
past. This is the bee that is getting
into the bonnets of the presidents Of
our publicly franchised corporations

far this contempt of public corpora
tions for the public can be carried
without causing the meek and patient
public to rise in effective rebellion no.

Pirates in Agreement AGAIN.

Even the tiger is for harmony, after
he has had his dinner, and, therefore,
there is nothing surprising in the re-
ports that Quay has held out the olive
branch to his former henchmen and
late antagonist, Elkin, and that they
have decided to bury their differences.
This corresponds to the general rules
of piracy everywhere. The pirate chief
is the man who can hit the hardest
and he remains chief just as long as
he can shrivel up other mems aspira-
lions by a glance of his eye. Quay
proved that he could hit the hardest
and now his late antagonists. in

renew their homage. Besides, the

With the announcement that the

people do not seem to realize that this

university, is thoroughly imbued with
western ideas and has very liberal
mind. The prince of Siam is just as
good as any other prince and if the
United States were as democratic as
he congress would have made no dis
tinction between him and the crown

Labor has clause in its constitution

Contract Observance
Compacts Between Employers and
Employees Should Be Sacr

Strict observance of contract, con-
sentative acton and earnest effort in
behalf Of the organizations, parties
to. contracts, should be their watch
word in the future.
Compacts between employers and
employees should be kept. This was
demonstrated in the recent Chicago
freight-handlers strike, which lied up
the transport interests. not only of
Chicago. but Of the middle West. The
strike demonstrated another thing,
also, and that is that labor unions,
whether they have VIC king contracts
and agreements with their employers
or not, are not formed merely for the
securing of recognition for the union,
higher wages, shorter hours Of labor,
and the like, SO that it may be able to
Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1902-08-15

control the trade or calling, so far as
labor Is concerned.
Contracts entered into by organiza-
lions Of employers and employees
should in no case be abrogated for a
commonplace reason. Nothing but ex-
IRENE necessity should induce the
breaking of an agreement, and then
only after every method of avoiding
it with honor has been resorted to. A
contract once made becomes a cove
nant in which the honor and integrity
of the officers of the organizations
parties to it are involved, and should
therefore be respected and fulfilled.
1t is not matter to be treated lightly
or thoughtlessly. Agreements should
be prepared carefully and religiously
observed.

The Issue That Worries.

The Republicans are in desperate
ly tight place in respect to the tariff.
They do not know how to get out of it,
and worse is to come, for when their
campaign orators take the stump this
fall they will be exposed to fire of
questions that would battle the most
astute casuists and could be, satisfac-
torily answered only by the honest
confession that the party is tied up
to the tariff-made trusts and bounty
fed manufacturers and has neither the
courage nor the disposition to break
its bonds.
