Prince Jaisiugrao. the son of the
Gaekwar OF Baroda, denied in New

LABOR WARNS ITSELF.

The good wage for the good working
man is one of the foundation stones of
the higher civilization. Step by step
the toiler has been advancing from
slavery 10 independence, until today he
has life of comfort with ample leisure
for self-improvement and relaxation,
and with assurance that nothing but his
own thriftlessness can prevent his being
independently well-to-do by the time he
has reached the decline of life. OF
course, we are speaking of the average
working man, and not of some indi-
vidual case where misfortune inter
venes.
Particularly in this era of great pros
perity in this country is the toiler to be
congratulated upon the large returns
from his labor. Wages are higher in
the United States today for manual and
semi manual toll than ever before and
anywhere in the history of the world
Broadly speaking, the man who works
| deserves all that he gets; and thinking
men-capitalist as well as toilers-aye
| proud of the working man of America
and proud of the glorious civilization
under which he enjoys such magnificent
returns upon his work and possesses
such sublime equality Of rights among
mankind.
But occasionally warning note is
sounded, and usually by the working
man himself. There is such thing as
| killing the goose that lays the golden
egg and this fact occasionally es-
capes the consciousness of the toler.

the directing minds in the labor forces
to see the justice and self-interest in
