Castro Not Blamed.

Berlin, August 19.-The foreign office of Acials here regard the arrest of German and other merchants at Ciudad Bolivar, Venezuela for refusing President Cas- tro's demand for the repayment of taxes already paid to the late insurgent gov ernment as probably being the work of the local government for which the Vene- zuelan president is not responsible. It is also believed that President Castro will no doubt cause the release of the pris- oners as soon as the facts are made known to him.

Theory Versus Fact.

The union man of today can see no far
Their than the length of his arm. So long
as he can keep his hand in the pocket Of
his employer he is happy. Having no
conception as to the effect Of enhanced
prices, Of higher cost of production, he
has no fear Of killing the goose which
laid the golden eggs, of running the in
dustry by which he obtains his living.
And who can doubt that ruin-or at least
disaster must follow If unintelligent, in
experienced '1abor'' shall be permitted to
assume the functions of that "capital'
which has built up and successfully con-
Quoted the great enterprises that afford
employment and the means of subsistence
to thousands?-D Goods Economist
Passing over the first two sentences
Of the above as unworthy of comment
how does the disparagement of labor's
ability to conduct industries agree
with the oft repeated assertion that
nine-tenths of the captains Of industry
have come up from the ranks? The ac-
tual management Of vast majority of
the Industries in this country is in the
hands Of men who have acquired their
skill and efficiency as workers. 'Capi-
tal' goes to Europe OF Newport to have
a good time, leaving it's agents behind
to collect and forv ard the dividends
that labor creates with it's brains as
well as it's muscles.
