SOCIAL SCIENCE
LABOR DISCUSSION

Boston, May 16.-The general meet
ings of 1903 of the American Social
Science Association began here Thurs
day. George III. Anderson spoke on
Some Responsibilities of Capitalistic
Organization" He said, in part:
"In considering some OF the respon-
sibilities of capitalistic organization 1t
is not to be overlooked that the career
of the labor organizations has not been
marked by any such love of wisdom.
justice and fair dealing as to evoke our
moral enthusiasm. Nor have the la
Dor organizations any moral standing
to denounce trusts. for their movement
is as distinctly n combination or trust
as is the capitalistic movement. The
two movements are alike in motive and
object.
THE organization of labor Is an alb
solute condition precedent under pres
ent conditions to any sound social and
industrial progress. To oppose that or
ganization, to attempt to prevent 1t by
constitution. or to denounce 1t In the
terms recently used at the Manufactur-
ers' Association at New Orleans Is both
futile and foolish.
In the last generation, he declared,
the legislation of the country had been
mainly controlled by capital. and in
not a few of the states the sale of leg
islation was n regular business. In con-
clusion Mr. Anderson said
1T is one of the present RESPONSE

that the powers of the ballot box and
of the legislative hall are to be held

benefit of the community as whole.
If capital fails to recognize the neces-
sity OF Just laws. respected and obeyed,
1t may expect little mercy at the hands
of its adversaries when they discover
their real power If Socialism comes,
the main responsibility will rest upon

EPisTLE TO THE HEBREWS.
Book Of the Bible Is OF the Most In
tense Interest.

The question who wrote the epistle
to the Hebrews is one which still re-
nains unanswered. Endless sugges-
tons have been made by Biblical
scholars. The book has been ascribed
in turn to Appollos. Luke, Aquila and
Priscilla in collaboration, and others;
but there is no consensus of opinion.
no one claims for his own theory that
IL should be considered anything but
a guess. There is a strange fascina-
tion about this yelled prophet, so full
of the poetry of an earlier faith, who
has given to the world his conception
OF Christianity-to him religion of
conscience and of hope, to which he
had fled for refuge" from n decaying
ceremonialism, n religion in which he
had found "a strong consolation
Even to the uplearned the book Is very
literary, and those who know con-
firm this instructive judgment. The
writer drops the threads of his argu-
ment to find illustrations and orna-
ments. and by no means disdains fine
verbal effects. Hebrews has nothing
of the eternal simplicity which has
kept the meaning of the Gospel clear
among the swords and pens of ten
thousand tneologiaEs. No book in the
New Testament-unless. perhaps. Rev
elations-has suffered more from the
heory of verbal inspiration. Some
thing of the writer's real mind has
been, we suspect, irremediably over
laid with the conclusions Of dogma
lists; but for all those who desire to
know what a cultivated man. who was
not St Paul. though about Christianity
before the end of the first century, it
remains of intense interest.-London

LABOR COMMITTEE
MAKES STATEMENT

Denver, May 16.-The labor execu-
tive committee yesterday issued an
exhaustive statement of its position,
reviewing what it terms the causes
which have led up to the present crisis
and concluding with the declaration
that the crisis is war, and that this
war will le continued until men and
women In this city are assured they
may hold employment and affiliate
with labor unions"
The statement begins by declaring
that the present unfortunate situation
Is not due to labor organizations, and
that there has been much misrepre-
sentation of the situation on the part
of the Citizens Alliance. 1t is stated
that the effort of the American Smelt-
ing and Refining Company to prevent
the adoption of an eight-hour day
among its employees is at the back of
the whole matter.
Alarmed at the strength of organ
lied labor, as shown in the Colorado
City millmen's strike. the smelter trust
took steps to weaken unionism in
Denver by the organization of all bus
mess interests against labor unions,
the statement asserts. Herb" George,
who Is said to supply the smelter trust
with its fuXing material, was selected
to start the movement. The situation
at the time between employers and la
Dor unions was most harmonious. and
all trades were completing satisfac-
tory arrangements for the ensuing
year.
Organized labor did not suspect, the
hnt
working under cover. The organiza-
tion of the alliance was followed by
the discharge of all transfer company
employees who Joined the newly-formed
transfer mems union. This. the COM
mittee declares, is violation OF the
rights of citizenship, and the charge is
made that the transfer trust, as the
combination is called. is guilty of in
consistency in forming combination
which forced Denver merchants to pay
increased prices for service.
The contets of the unions against
the transfer trust, the statement says,
was then commenced. The trust ap-
pealed to the Citizens Alliance. Mer-
chants who were dissatisfied because
of o'clock closing, and for other rea-
sons, were led into the alliance move
ment, and the banks forced others to
Join by refusing them credit unless
they did so. Unfair acts on the part
of merchants are quoted, and all are
laid at the door of the alliance. 1t is
declared that the labor organizations
have been ready for arbitration at all
times, but that the alliance has made
its slogan the declaration that unions
must CO." and this labor will fight to
the bitter end. "OrganiZed labor re-
grets the emergency to which these
events have driven innocent citizen
ship" the statement concludes, but
organized labor realizes at the same
time that should 1t accept the dictum
of the smelter trust and the transfer
trust and the Citizens Alliance with
out protest, it would be an intolerable
debasement of our manhood, our wo-
manhood, our children and our
homes"

Arbitration Board Would Act.

Denver. May 16.-Yesterday morn
ing there was a meeting Of the State
Board of Arbitration at the capitol and
the following communication was sent
to President j. C. Craig of the Citi-
zens' Alliance and ID. C. Coates, leader
of the labor forces:
Dear Sir-The State Board of Ar
bitration herewith tenders It's Offices
toward settlement of the existing
difficulties between your alliance and
the general executive committee of or.
ganized labor. In the interest of the
community at large it earnestly hopes
you will give Its tender full consider
alton.
Should the offices be accepted the
board promises a full and faithful
hearing of the matters at variance, as
exhaustive an inquiry as may be de-
manded and an unprejudiced decision
upon the testimony and facts adduced.
Respectfully yours.

TWO THOUSAND MORE DENVER
EMPLOYEES ORDERED TO STRIKE

ITO the Public-To effect speedy
of the pending strike. the
executive committee of the Citizens
Alliance of Denver proposed to the ex-
ecutive committee of the labor unions.
that n committee of eleven men, nVe OF
whom should be chosen by the Alliance
and five by the labor unions, the elev-
enth member to be selected by these
ten should. be created as an arDitra-
ton committee. to which all griey-
ances should be submitted for adjust
ment.
Not only was this proposition re-
iected, but the executive committee OF
organized labor, by its chairman and
secretary, has declined. in an official
to hold any further In
tercourse with, or further to recognize
the Citizens Alliance in any manner.
"In refusing to treat with employers
when associated together as an Or
ganized alliance or union, organized Ia
bor turns its back upon its cardinal
principle.
Organized labor will not recognize
or treat with the organized represents
tives of employers.
''If the contest between organized
business men and organized laboring
men Is to degenerate into one OF mere
physical endurance, the consequences
should and will fall upon the heads or
those rash leaders who have melted
their misguided followers to reject ar
bitration between organized bodies.
"This statement Is made because 1t is
important that the public should know
the reason why this strike Is not now
being adjusted by committee OF arbi-
traitors. Respectfully.

New York Builders to Organize.

New York, May 16.-The first steps
toward effecting general organiza-
tion OF employers in the building
trades for the purpose of offering
united resistance to the demands of
the labor unions were taken last night
at meetings held in Manhattan and
Brooklyn. At the meeting in Man
haitian 700 employers were present
and the throng was so great that over
flow me etings were held.
In Brooklyn 100 employers met and
formed the Employers League of the
Borough of Brooklyn. 1t was resolved
to permit no interference with bust
ness by any individuals or organiZa-
tons, and that no walking delegates
should be pc ermitted to enter any shop
