sentlal differences between a labor
union and a trust is this: A
union seeks to have all come in on
equal terms, with the motto
equal rights to all and special
privileges to none" a trust seeks
to reduce its membership to the
possible point, with the
motto, especial privileges for us
and to h with the rest.n
There a be no 'labor trusts,
when every effort is made to bring
the u~norganized workers into the
field" Such a body is democratic
IN every respect, while the trust is
plutocratao, non-archie, and the
fewer persona in control the more
rapacious and greedy it becomes.

has had no occasion to complain of
the loyalty of employees.
More than a yeat ago, when the
second and third class postmasters
met III convention here, the post
master general addressed them,
and outlined his views os the rela-
ton of the department to employees.
That Mr.. COrtelyou edict to en-

Will not make for the betterment of
conditions there or in the ranks Of
the army os clerks is the opinion
of prominent labor leaders in
Washington, and men who have
played no small part in outlining
labor's policy of entering politics.
1t is contended by the labor repre-
>entatives that the post office de
partment employees are being ridden
over rough shod and gradually
every right they possess under the
constitution is being deprived them.
The consensus of opinion is that
Secretary Cortelyou had another
move to drive the laboring men out
of the political arena, which. ac-
cording to their belief, he has a
perfect right to enter. 1t is also
pointed out that the clerks, shorn
of all their liberties and rights,
will not do their work cheerfully
or with any more good grace than
is absolutely necessary for him or
her to retain his or her position
under the government.
1t is believed that Secretary Cor
telyou's edict is merely an echo of
President Roosevelt's order to gov
eminent employees on Jan. /, 1902,

SOME GOOD ADVICE
Given unionists by the Pittsburg Com
moner and Glassworker.
CONTRACTS MUST BE KEPT j.
The Violations of Trade Agreements
is Very Injurious to the Organ
lied Movement.

The following extract from the

worker applies to other unions rs
c as those of the glass industry:
More attention should be paid
by the workers to the policy of
carrying out trade agreements en-
tered into by their representatives
and the manufacturers. The prac.
tice of laying down irons and walk
ing out Of u factory is not con-
ducive to good results by any
means and should not be INDUCED
IN by the membership. If there is
a dispute at q factory it has ALWAYS
been found the better policy to con-
Gnue at work pending d settlement
OF the controversy. If this course
Is not carried out by the workers
1t has the effect of placing a most
serious handicap Oh the efforts of
their officers.
Trade agreements should not
be violated. This is a fundamen-
tai principle of trade unionism.
and every worker who has the
welfare of the organization at heart
should see that nothing is done
which would stultify the position
OF the organization or its officers.
Ill feeling is engcndered when this
principle is not observed, and the
effect in every cas is harmful to
the workers.
G the men walk out Of a
plant regardless Of the rules under
which their organization is oper-
ated the position of their officers is
UNNECESSARILY weakened, conf
dence in them is very often shat
tered and matters are placed in
serious shape for the entire trade.
Above every other consideration
the individual member should
place the matter of fulfilling to the
letter a working agreement entered
into i'll good faith with the manu-
~facturers. If they fail to carry
out their part of the contract they
cannot consistently ask their EN-
ployer to live up to the terms set
forth in the agreement

REWARD -OO SMALL.
Fugitive Finds Difficulty in Getting
Arrested at Pierre.

Several weeks ago Sheriff Logan of
Hughes county vas approached by an
individual who said he had escaped
from custody in Kansas City and de-
sired to return to face the charge
against him, and wanted the sheriff
to take him in charge and return him
to the Missouri authorities for the re-
ward. The Missouri authorities we're
notified and replied that the man was
wanted all right. and that a reward Of
$50 was out for his return. After fig.
uring out the cost of two tickets to
Kansas City and a return trip for one,
Sheriff Logan decided that he was
not looking for any such snap. and
told the Missouri people TO come on
and he would show them their man.
They evidently figured the same way.
and after the man had loafed around
Pierre several days in his attempt 10
brea k into Jail, he vanished as he
had come, 10 Il apparently knowing
from where or to where. He is sup
posed to have made his way to some
point where an officer could figure

fore he found any one willing to pay
his fare back to Missouri.

MORAL TRAINING.
Suggestions Of State Superintendent

State Superintendent Of Instruction
Ramer is highly encouraged over the
reception of his plans for moral train
ing In the state schools by the State
Educational association at Brookings
at the recent session. In his annual
address as president Of the associa-
ton Prof. Ramer advanced the fol-
lowing proposition: That moral STAN

learning must look after the moral
training of its students; that the aver
age person is moral only in conse-
quence Of religious sentiment; that
Christianity is the only religion that

the Bible is the basis of Christianity
and therefore its authority-not nec-
essarily the book itself-must be rec
ognized in institutions Of learning;
failure to plan for effective moral and
ethical training is sure to lead to the
death Of high ideals and finally to the
destruction Of American institutions;
that the United States is a Christian
nation, and failure to recognize the
authority Of the nations great basal
book is unamerican and unpatriotic.
President Nash Of Aberdeen takes the
ground that it is the mission of nor
NAL schools TO turn out teachers who
can give moral training to their pupils.
Bishop O'Gorman of Sioux Falls, in a
paper read by Father Hogan of De
Smet, dwelt upon the fact that this is
a Christian nation whose very founda-
lions were laid in Christian senti-
ment. He pleads for more definite at
tention to moral and religious train
ing In our schools. Prof. Smith of
the state university at Vermillion
takes the ground that when a uni
versity gets to the place where it car

women graduates 1t should close its
doors. He thinks that the spirit Of
the Sermon on the Mount should per-
wade the education Of students every
wrere. Prof. Ramer has been in
structed by the educational associa-
ton to appoint a committee Of fifteen
to definitely work out a plan of moral
training. Prof. Ramer states this
committee will be of all denomina-
tons and will be Amounted soon.

SCH|ff SEES PANIC AHEAD
UNLESS SOMETHING IS DONE TO
MAKE CURRENCY MORE
ELASTIC.

New York, Jan. 6.-Unless there is
currency reform, a panic beside which
former panics will seem Insignificant
was predicted by Jacob H. Schiff,
head of the banking firm of Kuhn,
Loeb & Co., in a speech yesterday be-
fore the New York chamber Of COM
merce. Mr.. Schiff said he did not re-
gard such a panic as imminent, but
he believed it will come unless some
thing is done to remedy the lack of
elasticity of the present currency sys-
tenn. He declared that he did not
favor the plan proposed by Secretary
Of the Treasury Shaw for relief of the
situation, it being his opinion that the
secretary's plan
Would Aid Speculation
rather than legitimate business. Mr..
Schiff favored a currency based on
commercial paper as more helpful to
the general business interests Of the
country.
The speech created a sensation in
financial circles and caused a sharp
break in prices on the stock exchange.
The meeting of the chamber was at
tended by a large number Of business
men and financiers and a resolution
on the subject offered by Mr.. Schiff
was unanimously adopted.
Supplements His Speech.
After the close of the market. Mr..
Schiff made this supplementary state
ment:
my remarks were dictated simply
by the conviction that something must
be done to correct our i~nelastic cur

time into great disaster. We are try
