PENALTY OF UNWISDOM.

Edward knockles, secretary of the
Chicago Federation of Labor. who
keeps the per-capita tax accounts of
the labor organization of that city
says that the membership in the
unions which a year ago had reached
$4,000 is today less than 10000. I'm
successful strikes, the stand for the
open shop" by some of the employees.
and the offers of employment by en-
ployers who agree to hire men as in
dividuals, is having a weakening effect
upon the unions. SOcialistic agitators
are making much of the situation.
claiming that trade unionism is not
the remedy for what they call wage
slavery and urging the members of
the unions to put on the badge of So
cialism, an example of which is said

depletion, as indicated by this state
ment, it is due more to bad manage
ment than to anything else The
butchers union, while still in
existence, is ineffective and has
been reduced to it's present con-
dition by the unwise action of
its leaders, particularly it's presi-
dent. In the butchers strike, the work.
ingmen had the advantage when they
went back to work under the agree
ment to have points of difference ar

President Donnelly called his men out
again under sudden impulse. believ-
ing that the employers We're not dis
posed to carry out their agreement
with the men. The employers had not

or bad faith cOnclusively No fair
tentiOns. The members of the union
knew it, and when their families be-
gan to suffer for food they could not
be held in line in support of a policy
of which they could not approve.
If labor organization is less prospe-
rOus and successful today. than it was
a short time ago, the fact must be at
tributed more to injudiciOus manage
ment than to anything else The need
of organization and the effectiveness
of organization as a means of gain
ing the ends aimed at are lust as real
today as they ever were, and what
ever decentralization may exist in la
boris ranks is doubtless but temper
airy and capable of being corrected
with a return to wiser and saner
methods. In no place in this country
has organized labor lacked so much
the conserving influence of moderation
and wise leadership as in Chicago.

TURNER'S RECORD IS CLEAN.

An interesting account of how Judge
Turner attacked the railroad lobbyists
in the Washington constitutional con-
ventiOn of 1889 was published in the
1t was sent to that paper by Edgar 3.
Piper, present city editor of the Port
land Oregonian, and was printed I'M
der the headlines, Turner Creates a
Sensation" Quoting Judge Turner's
remarks on the floor of the convention,
the Post Intelleencer account said
members of the convention would
better hesitate before they strike out
this sectiOn.' (section 2D. declared
Turner They must remember that
the people are to vote on this consti-
tuition. Last Saturday 80 members of
this convention voted for a constitu-
tional commission and since then rail-
road lobbyists have been here and now
they have changed their minds
Judge Turner then said: Il do not
profess to be "a master of language, but

adopted the views advanced by these

Having been defeated by the rail-
road lobby in all of his efforts to Sc
cure the insertion of any kind of a
commission clause in the constitution
! Judge Turner then drew a clause which
set forth his own ideas of what kind
of a commission should be provided
and when the corporations article

forewarned no supporter of a railway
commission should vote for any re-
publican nominee for the Legislature.
If Turner should be elected the repub-
all republican members of the legisla-
ture to vote against a commission bill
barrassment and annoyance possible.
The people made a mistake in 1900
when they tied the hands of Governor
John r. Rogers by electing with him
a republican Legislature and the re-
publican state ticket with the excep-
ton of the head. If Rogers had been
given the support of democratic leg
islature it is more than likely that a
railway commission would have been
created three years ago and the peo-
pie would now have the benefits of it's
work.
Remember that a vote for any re-
publican member of the Legislature IS
vote against a railway commission.
The republican state convention voted
down by a two thirds majority the
Mcbride commission plank and that
vote is in effect an instruction to
every republican member of the leg
islature and to the republican nOmi-
nee for governor if he should be elect
ed to work and vote against an ap-
pointive, regulative railway commits
