Ii you be labOrer, mark well where
you stand. You are either with the
forces which make for progress, that
tend to the and Of human, equality and
the kingdom Of God, or you are with
the forces which would destroy Anglo
Saxon civilization only to rebuild upon
it's ruins the institutions of the Roman
Empire. You can not be on both sides
of this fight; you can not breathe hot
and cold; you can not serve yourself, as
you see it, and humanity as well; you
can not serve God and Mammoth
You must choose. And in choosing
you must remember that you are not
choosing for yourself alone. You are
choosing for your children and your
childrens children; and as you choose
so shall they regard your memory
If you shall choose to drift with the
current that is now setting toward in
dustrial feudalism, then, while the
yoke may sit easily and comfortably
upon you, you may be sure it will gall
your sons and your daughters, when
the letters are firmly riveted. 1t was
not in the development of feudalism SO
much as in its strength and it's decay
that all it's inherent evils became ap-
parent
Labor being life, our duty to labor
i. e., our duty to our labor power--is
to use it in the interest of society as a
whole, in just the same way as we use
our lives. 1t must not be wasted, :des-
troyed nor prostituted There is no
work useful to society, useful to man,
to which it may not be honorably APP
piled. To speak Of this or that lxino
Of labor as being serv11e or dishonor-
able, and to SO look upon it, is to prove
to the world that the servitude of past
ages still clings to our consciousness
Having got physically rid of the col
lar, mentally we yet feel it, Men to
be truly free must know and feel them
selves to be free; and with such know
| and the consciousness of individual
responsibility appropriate to the free
man. The latter has certain duties to
PERFORM; he sees them and performs
them because he desires to perform
them. 1t is the mark Of servitude to
do things because we must. He who
! is free, and would retain his freedom
must endeavor to do that which his
own highest conception instructs him
| as his duty, asking from no one that
which is not of right his.
| The labor movement exists for the
| development of social Justice; for the
! training and development Of men and
| women, capable of living in that in
| dustrial democracy which is the hope
and aspiration Of the human race

NEITHER FOLLY NOR ILLUSION

It was serious mistake, tending
greatly to weaken it's position before
people Of intelligence in the contest
for the crushing Of the Western FEEDER
alton OF Miners, for the Colorado Mine
Operators Association to include the
following in it's published indictment
of the federation:
THAT this organization, having
formally and officially espoused the
cause of the so-called Socialist party,
is opposed to our present form OF gov
eminent and is aiming at its over
throw, together with the abrogation Of
the present constitution"
And this is held up, on parity
with the alleged lawless and highly
criminal record of the federation, as
a justification Of the resort to military
rule and mob violence for Kidding the
state of these federationists
AS a matter of fact this charge, if
true, tends to weaken rather than to
strengthen the other charges of organ
lied criminality. There isn't much
hope Of anything better than disorderly
and violent methods from labor union
which makes of its own particular ef-
forts, through strikes and otherwise,
to gain better wages and hours and
other conditions of which
makes of such efforts finality in the
working out Of the labor problem. But
there Is hope of something better from
labor union which is able to perceive
the insufficient and temporary char
acter Of such line of effort, if not its
intolerability when disorder becomes
an essential agency for even a temper
airy success, and which looks to
changes through the orderly processes
of lawful enactment, changes even of
socialistic nature, to establish for
the wage classes that share in the in
dustrial product which justly belongs
to them and which they claim not to
enjoy in full measure.
It is folly or ignorance to assert that
socialistic demands are opposed 10 our
form Of government or that those who
make them are aiming at the over
throw Of this government and its con-
stitution. Nothing Of the sort Not

Portland, Oregon, Sept. 2O.-United
States Commissioner Staden has given
a decision in the case of Doe Gum Zip.
a Chinese woman, held for deportation
which will throw open the doors Of in-
migration to Celestial women so long
as the women marry regularly ad-
mitted Chinaman after their arrival.
The Zip woman was charged with be-
ing Illegally within the United States.
After her arrest she married a Chinese
citizen according to the laws of the
United States. and this, according to
Commissioner Staden's decision, en-
titles her to a residence in this coun-
try, even though, as the commissioner
expresses it. he was certain the mar
riage had been performed for the pur-
pose Of enabling the woman to remain
in this country. So long as such mar
riages conform with the marriage laws
OF the United States the woman is
not liable to deportation.

Saratoga, N. Y, Sept. 21.-After a
conference among the democratic state
leaders lasting from 1916 until 1:25 a.
m. this morning, in an effort to har-
monize the conflicting elements in the
party. the members of the conference
separated with the understanding that
they should meet again at 8 a. m. The
conferees We're mute as to the details
of their discussion, the announcement
only being made that no final agree
ment had been reached and that the sit
iuation would remain in that condition
until the o'clock meeting.
Immediately following the close of the
conference Senator McCarren went into
conference with Mr.. Shehan, accompa-
MED by Senator DowIing, representing
Charles F. Murphy. The three were to-
gether in Mr.. Sheehan's room for about
fifteen minutes.
Senator McCarren would not discuss
his meeting with sheehan and Bowling,
nor would Senator Dowling make any
statement whatever.
Pressed for some kind of an an
nouncement, Mr.. Sheehan said:

Ithreshing out Of the claims Of the va

definite Character was accomplished.
1t was stated by all the members oi

LOCAL AUTO CATCHES THIEF
Successfully Cbasss Man who stole a
+ Team in AIeriden.

Meriden, Conn.,, Sept. 2O.-An excit-
ing chase occurred here to-day after
a horse thief by number of New Ha-
ven men in an automobile which re-
suited in the thief being oyerhauled
just over the Berlin line about fve
miles from where the team was taken.
The stolen rig, which is the property
Of NJ. w. Booth, prominent grocer Of
this city, was hitched in the rear of
his store when an unknown man ran
up and jumping into the wagon whip
ped UP the horse and rapidly drove
away. Some friends of Mr.. Booth who
saw the team being driven at a high
rate Of speed by stranger telephoned
him and Mr.. Booths son Immediately
started in pursuit with another team.
After an exciting chase, during which
the stolen team held its own, the pur-
suers halted an automobile and after
explaining matters, the auto started
in pursuit and just over the Berlin line
succeeded in oVerhauling the thief. He
was compelled to return to Meriden
where he was taken to police head
quarters. He gave his name as Mich
ael Novak. He was unable to explain
to the satisfaction of the police why he
took the team.

ALLEGED HORSE THIEVES.
Arrested While Trying to Sell water
bury Team.

+ = 3 q 4 SEM 4
Victor J. Handle, of Naugatuck, and
Joseph Il. Brennan, Of Waterbury, were
arrested last night by Detective Ward.
1t is alleged that they sold team to
Liveryman Ferguson, of Church street,
which did not belong to them, but was
the property of a Waterbury liveryman.
MIR. Ferguson acted in conjunction with
the police and gave the young men a
check for $50, and they We're on their
way to the depot when caught by
Ward.
The men had in their possession an
advertisement from a New York Sum
day paper, and this, 1t seems, was the
cause of all their trouble. The adver-
tisement read at the top, Lazy mans
paradise" and under this was printed
"Great demands for husbands" Fol
lowing this was description of d new
settlement which had been established
in South America. The men had read
this and said they were headed for
the place when captured.
The Waterbury police came after the
men and took them back to that city
last night for trial. e.

HEARING ON RAILROAD CUT
HELD LAST EVENING IN THE
CITY HALL.

Several Plans Were Discussed but
Nothing Definite was Decided Upon
Attorney watrous Speaks In Refer
ence to PLANS Of opposition--specia
Meeting of Aldermen to be Held.
In the city hall last evening the
committee on railroads and bridges
gave hearing on the question Of the
much discussed railroad cut. No def
mite action was taken, although the
several plans advanced by those pres
ent were discussed at some length, The
feeling was apparently against the
proposition O! the railroad.
During the evening a number Of
speakers took the floor, among them c..
w. Whittlesey, the state street mer-
chant who has delved deeply into the
subject of the cut and made some con-
vincing arguments against the PROPOSE
tion of the railroad, his ideas in gen
eral meeting with considerable approval
from those present
1t is believed by those who are
against the proposition of the railroad
that the elimination of the railroad cut
itself means level streets and a num-
ber of lowered grades In the center of
the city, and the smoke question rele-
gated to the smoky part Of the city.
Also the increased valuation of prop
erty near the cut, and the elimination
of grade crossings and existing high
grades between Cedar Hill and the I'm
ion depot.
1t is also urged by the opposition that
getting rid of the cut would mean an
elevated, isolated roadway through the
city, and railroad out Of reach Of
flood or snow. Elevated roads, it is
urged are in Philadelphia, Bridgeport,
Boston, Springfield, Hartford, Stamford
and South NorWalk.
In this city the question Of head room
settled forever.
It was urged, also, that the plan of
the railroad is not even satisfactory to
the road itself, as it does not get with
in two feet of the necessary height and
will probably have to ask for a further
raise in the near future.
The final hearing before the railroad
commissioners will be held on Monday,
September 26, at 10 a. m. in the city
hall.
Attorney Watrous appeared last night
for the railroad and attempted by
questions to discredtt the technical
points in the plans advanced by the
opposition.
Mr.. Freedman spoke against the rail-
road, and ex-Mayor Driscoll presented
lengthy argument in favor of having
the matter left to the board Of alder
men.
The matter was finally left to q spe-
ciaI meeting of the board Of aldermen.
