Local View Of the Norcross Failure.
Worcester telegram

Local View Of the Norcross Failure,
lWorcester Telegram.)
The temporary tie-up Of Norcross
Bros affairs need not be looked upon
AZ OF serious import. During the past
spring and summer there has been a
determination that amounted almost
to q mania among the workers In the
building trades to push their demands
to the very limit. Wages were never
better and opportunities for work new
or more plentiful. This was not sat
isfactory. In some cases. as Is shown
| by the charges against Samuel Parks
and his associates. labor leaders used
their high and important position to
blackmail builders. II the blackmail
was not paid, q strike followed. Such
an abnormal condition could not but
weaken the employers. 1t does not
mean that tho employer has been
driven to the wall. II does not mean
that industrial conditions are bad. 1t
docs mean that law must rule and
blackmaii and terrorism cease. Ham
pering and ~hectoring an employer does
not NEAR q victory for the employed
or an Improvement In the condition Of
workers.
Boston builders lament the fact that
operations this year seriously de-
cllned. mostly owing to the attitude Of
the unions. In New York, after vast.
ing the spring and part Of the summer.
10000 men have returned to work.

.ajsnsgs eseate1 n oil our war; down
= TIE Dri,s Of 1895. and aiil on the
roll. may be stated II round numbers
II $4,000. The total created by the
Spanish war to date will be found,
when the full figures are In, to ex-
coed 1880. The Civil var ended
t~hirty-eIght years ago. and the pension
roll In 1866. representing all wars to
that date, contained 126.722 names.
Assuming the list chargeable solely
to the Spanish war to grow In like pro-
portion-and such things, in a country
where the citizen soldier plays so con-
siderable q part In politics, never
nov backward-we may look for q
pension list in 1897. due to the Span.
ish war alone Of 111.007, or. roughly,
four pensioners to every ten men en-
gagged; a very large percentage, in
view of the non-hazardous character
OF much Of the campaigning.
A comparison which will throw q
still stronger light upon these figures
may be made with the pension list Of
1861. which, after the United States
had passed through all It's martial adj
ventures down To the outbreak OF the
Civil war, contained only 1896 names,
nearly equally divided between the In
valid veterans and the widows. 1t
IL but fair to say that the disparity
between the statistics Of that remote
day and ours Is due not wholly to the
initiative Of the individual veterans
who were to become benehciaries Of
the system, but In very large measure
to the trend OF politics and legislation.
