Eliot and Labor.

President Eiiot's rulosy of the
nan-union strike breaker has
called forth the condemnation of
the federation of labor. and excit-
ed criticism from all quarters.
The first question to be decided is
whether organizations among the
laboring men is desirable Those
who say that it is, can point to the
reforms that have been brought
about through the various labor
organizations. The secret ballot,
arbitration, the lessening of the
hours of labor, legislation against
child labor, the increase OF wages,
the better protection and the san.
itation of mines and factories. and
the discussion among laboring
men of economic. social and poll
tical questions these are some OF
the things that the labor organi-
zation has accomplished.
But fer the organization the
condition of the wage-earner to-
day would be very much worse
than it now is: without the labor
organization it would be difficult
to imagine the condition of labor
few years hence. The labor or
ganizahon has not only helped it's
members, but it has helped those
outside of its ranks, for they also
have shared IN the general amelio.
ration of conditions.
President Eliot can better EN-.
ploy his time attempting to i'm
prove and perfec, the labor organ
ization than in praising those who
attempt to destroy its usefulness.
IL will be unfortunate for the
country if the students of Pres.
Eliot are alienated in sympathy
from the struggling masses upon
whom the strength of the nation
must finally rest in peace and in
war.-Tne Commoner.

IT is said that Senator Bncklin,

not vote to throw all of the repub-

SHOULDN'T DUMP OUR CROOKS.
DR.. Parkhurst Says We've No Right to
Measle the Rest OF the World With Them.


Inspector McClusky's efforts to drive
crooks from the city were criticised by
DR.. Parkhurst Of the Madison Square Pres
byterian Church in conversation last night.
He said:
Morally. New York has no right to foist
It's bad men upon the rest of the nation.
II is our duty to work out our problems
right here at home. Driving crooks to
the West Is not graphing with question.
1t il the cowardly evasion Of weaklings.
II there are crooks in New York, there
is no reason why we should food tho rest

do not like them.
IF I were . crook I would object being
driven to the West would stand on
my righte and stay in the city il had al
ready paid the penalty. Of my offences
against society. By this do not mean that
I am defending crooks. i am merely de-
Tending the rights Of individuals and en-
phasizing an ethical truth. New York has
no moro right to turn its crooks loose upon
the nation than an individual has to turn
q dirty drain from his kitchen into the
yard Of q neighbor.. 1t is just the same
thing on larger scale.
Dealing with our crooks il our own
problem. We should feel strong enough
to meet them and grappie with them. This
Is the financial and. no doubt, the intel
lectual centre Of the nation, II we cannot
conquer the crooks. what will weaker COM

Ii something like perpetual motion. The
crooks leave us for while until our zeal
abates and then come back until there is
another crusade against them. Their
periods OF exile are brief-about as brief

Their periods Of industry occupy all the
rest Of the year.
