CAPITAL AND LABOR,
Infinite Harm Done by "Preachers Of
Mere Discomfort.

In dealing with both labor and cap
ital, with the questions affecting both
corporations and trades unions, there
is one matter more important to re-
member than aught. else, and that is
the infinite harm done by preachers Of
mere discomfort. These are the men
who seek to excite a violent class
hatred against all men of wealth. They
seek to turn wise and proper move.
porations and for doing away with the
abuses connected with wealth into q
campaign Of hysterical excitement and
falsehood in which the aim is to In
flame to madness the brutal passions
of mankind. The sinister demagogues
and foolish Missionaries who are always
eager to undertake such campaign
of destruction sometimes seek to- as
sociate themselves with those working
for genuine reform in governmental
and social methods and sometimes
masquerade as such reformers. In
reality they are the worst enemies Of
the cause they profess to advocate,
just as the purveyors of sensational
SANDER in newspaper or magazine are
the worst enemies of all men who are
engaged in an honest effort to better
what is bad in our social and govern
mental conditions. ~
To preach hatred of the rich man as
such, to carry on a campaign of SLAM
der and invective against him, to seek
to mislead and inflame to madness
honest men whose lives are hard and
who have not the kind Of mental train
ing which will permit them to appre-
ciate the danger in the doctrines
preached-all this is to commit crime
against the body polite and to be false
to every worthy principle and tradi-
ton of American national life. More
over, while such preaching and such
agitation may give livelihood and q
certain notoriety to some of those who
take part in it and may result in the
temporary political success of others,
in the long run every such movement
will either fail or else will provoke q
violent reaction, which will itself re-
suit not merely in undoing the mis-
chief wrought by the demagogue and
the agitator, but also in undoing the
good that the honest reformer, the
true upholder Of popular rights, has
painfully and laboriously achieved.
Corruption Is never so rife as in COM
munities where the demagogue and
the agitator bear full sway, because, In,
such communities all moral bands be-
come loosened, and hysteria, and SEN
sationalism replace the spirit Of sound
judgment and fair dealing as between
man and man. In sheer revolt against
the squalid anarchy thus produced
men are sure in the end to turn toward.

o. Negro Should Be Educated. ~
There is another matter which has q
direct bearing upon this matter of
lynching and Of the brutal crime which
sometimes calls it forth and at other
times merely furnishes the excuse for
its existence. 1t is out of the question
Tor our people as whole permanently
to rise by treading down any of their
own number. Even those who them
selves for the moment profit by such
maltreatment Of their fellows will in
the long run also suffer. No more
shortsighted policy can be imagined
than in the fancied interest Of one class
to prevent the education Of another
class. The free public school, the chance
for each boy or girl to get good ele-
mentary education, lies at the founda-
ton Of our whole political situation.
In every community the poorest citi-s
zens, those who need the schools most,
would be deprived Of them IL they only
received school facilities proportion
ed to the taxes they paid. This is as
true Of one portion Of our country as
Of another. It is as true for the negro
as for the white man. The white man,
IS he Is wise, will decline to allow the.
negroes In q mass to grow. to manhood,
and womanhood without education

obtained IA our public schools does not
