CHAMBERLAIN'S PROPOSALS.

In the August number of the North
American Review, the well-known
British statesman, Sir John E. Gorst
NJ. P, severely criticises Mr. Cham
berlain's Proposals. Sir John char
acterizes the proposals as the out
come Of consciousness on the part Of
the colonial secretary that fresh
platform is needed for the next cleo
tions, and he calls attention to the
fact that a substantial change has
passed over them since they were
originally made At first the objec'
British Empire by means of a tax on
the food Of the people of the British
Isles; but now it is fiscal retaliation
on foreign countries for their hostile
tariffs. with the consolidation of the
British Empire and the bread-tax in
the background Whatever the main
purpose of Mr. Chamberlain scheme
may be, however Sir. John Gorst con-
tends that it is unwise and impracti
cable, and that it would involve a bur
den to the British people which would
crush them to the ground. From the
point of view of the British taxpayer
its advantages are problematical and
illusOry. its disadvantages are certain.
II wages rose under it, they would
rise only in a few Industries which
would be stimulated by it. while tne
mass of the British people. thirty-four
per cent. of whom do not now earn
a living wage" that is, the amount
Of money which will purchase enough
of the nec2ssaries Of life to secure
moderate comfort, would have to pay
more for their food than they do now.
The British people have been willing
10 fight for the British Empire, for
man is a fighting animal, but they
cannot be expected to starve for it
in cold blood. Besides. urges Sir
John, Great Britain might lose more
in trade with foreign countries than
she would gain in trade with her colo
MES:
The market in which the colonies
|can handicap foreign countries in ia
vor of Great Britain by discriminating
tariffs is not large 1t consists of
those imports from foreign countries
which British trade could supply, and
has been estimated at twenty millions
only. The experiment in Canada does
not warrant the belief that Great Brit
ain could mOnOpOlize the whole of it:
but, whatever its value, the portion
which she secures is all she is to get
in return for the tax on food Com
pared with the total British export
trade of 80 millions, it is inSlgnlh-
cant. But is there nothing on the 9th
er side to be lost or jeOpardized? The
exports of Great Britain to foreign
countries are twice as great as those
to her own possessions. Is there no
danger of this trade being injured?
Countries which have hostile tariffs
may, by increasing those tariffs, cause
further diminutiOn in the demand
in their territories for British manu-
features. If wages are raised in any
industries in Great Britain as a con-
sequence of colonial preference, the
cost of production will be thereby in
creased, and the commodities will, in
consequence, be handicapped in the
competition in the general markets
of the world. If an account is taken
on both sides, may not the gain in ex
ports to the colonies be more than
balanced by the loss elsewhere?"

UNION LABOR IN POLITICS

Federated Labor as a New Factor
in British Politics" is the title of a
very interesting article, by J. Keir
Hardie, M. P, in the August number
of the North American Review. Mr.
Hardie explains change that has re-
Gently come over the political pur
poses Of the British workman. So
long as labor unions were supposed
to be regarded by the law as volun-
tary organizations, in the nature of
clubs. which could neither sue nor be
sued, so long as strikes in all their
aspects and concomitants, such as
'picketing and peaceful persuasion"
We're supposed to have been tacitly
legalized by custom, the laboring man
was perfectly willing to retain his con
nection with the established political
parties, the conservative and the lib
eral, as the case might be. But these
assumptions as to strikes and unions
have been upset by recent decisions
of the courts; which have nlulcted
certain unions in damages, in one case
to the extent of twenty-three thous
and pounds, and which held that
peaceful persuasion whilst picket
ing renders the picket liable to i'm
prisonment The British workman
has, therefore, resolved to bid farewell
to the old parties, and to establish a
purely labor party through which he
can influence legislation in favor RI
the specific interests of his own class.
Mr.. Hardie gives an account Of what
has been accomplished in the direc
ton of building up this new political
organization and the purposes it will
endeavOr to further. He predicts
that, unless the general election is
rushed no less than fifty labor can
didates will enter the lists, and thai
fair proportion of them will be re
turned. This prediction is not dis
credited by the result of the latest by
election, in which a labor candidate
was victorious over his conservative
and liberal rivals. Mr.. Hardie paints
a dark picture of the condition of the
English masses.
Recent Investigations prove that
close upon thirty per cent Of the work
ing class are not in receipt Of stuff
cient income to enable them to OBJ
tain for themselves and their depen-
dents. the standard of comfort which
poor house or as criminals in gaol.
This fact has startled and alarmed
people. The comfortable theory that
formerly existed that, but for
drunkenness and want of thrift, the
working class would all be content
shivered to atoms; and, for the first
time in her long career of self-delu-
sion, England has been brought face
to face with the fact that, despite her
worldwide trade, her unparalleled
wealth and prosperity, her growing
bounds of empire and her political,
mechanical and intellectual progress,
there is at the foundation of her soci-

ALAMEDA MADE 1|ME'

There is great rejoicing aboard the
steamer Alameda today on account OF
the fine trip made by that steamer on
her run to port from San Francisco.
The same fine weather reported by the
Nebraskan was what the Alameda had
from start to finish and had II not been
that she was slowed down two days ago
to reach here at daylight this morn
ing she would have been off port last
evening about 10 O'Clock.
The Alameda has new chief engi-
neer this trip, Mr.. Owens, who was
formerly in the Sierra, where, with
Chief Engineer Nieman, he was first
assistant. To him and his assistants
Is due the good record made hy the big
steamer which has done better than
her sister boats ever since she has been
launched. His promotion to be chief
of the Alameda was in testimony Of the
good work he has done in the Sierra.
This Is his first experience in an oil
burner and he Is charmed with the
way things run. The run Of the steam.
err is a great feather in the caps of the
engineers department and as they are
becoming more and more accustomed
to the use OF the oil as a fuel they are
doing better work.
They claim that II is only a matter
of few trips before the Alameda will
do her sixteen knots. This trip she
averaged about fifteen knots all Of the
time before she was slowed down. The
days runs were as follows: Noon,
March list. 1923; March end, 81; March
Bird, 374: March 4th, 375; March 5th,
500; March 9Th TO port, 267. The Ala
media passed the lightship at 1920 p. m.
on February 2Sth and was abreast OF
Diamond Head light at $50 a. m. this
morning From point to point she was
about five days twelve hours and ten
minutes or five days fourteen hours
from wharf to wharf.
The steamer brought a good sized
passenger list and all those who ar
rived in ner were greatly pleased with
their trip, which was the smoothest
made by the boat in the last two years
A large mail and freight was brought
and, like the Nebraskan, the Alameda
sighted a great many vessels on the
way down. They are reported as fol

JUDGE PURNELL's SALARY.

After hearing the argument on the APP
peal OF the North Carolina Corporation
Commission in the matter of Judge Pur-
nell's refusal to pay the income tax, Judge
Simonton stated that. being a Federal
Judge himself, he naturally had fellow
feeling with Judge Purnells desire to
escape taxation on his salary. He added
that the question was one of great i'm
portance and he would not decide it
until he had thoroughly investigated the
matter Judge Purnell was represented
by Capt. w. II. Day and Mr.. F. H. Bus
bee. The Corporation Commission wag
represented by Hon. Cyrus B. Watson
and Hon. Locke Craig
1t is to be hoped that Judge Sim onton
will uphold the just contention of the
Corporation Commission. 1t is absurd
to say that a Federal or Stat. officers
income ought to escape taxation when they
are taxed just like everybody else who
receives the same salary. The makers
OF the constitution never dreamed that
the judges would rcgGrd themselves as
a privileged class and stretch the clear
meaning of the law in order to enable
them to dodge just and equal taxation.
No matter What the decision of the
lower courts this question should be
carried to ths United states Supreme
court for figal adjudication. All doubts
ought tp/be settled as to the legality OF
the/tax on tax-eaters. II the Supreme
Qourt says they shall eat taxes, and not
help pay the expenses of government,
nothing will be left but to bow to their adj
Indication. But until they make that de-
clsion in the North Carolina case, the
Corporation Commission does well to
stand by its just ruling
