Referring to tha conflicting testi- moay given in the Haywood case, the Mining Journal. a wholly conservative republican paper. thinks that one relying wholly upon il. will have trouble in forming q definite conclus- ion as to either the guilt or innocence of the accused. l. expresses the opinion that the conditions existing in the mining states of Colorado and Idaho are not only deplora pie but who'll r disgraceful. The 9ars that haze been w8ged between capital and labor have been exceedingly fierce and bloody. but i. will not do to say that tAs responsibility rests on one side alone. Capital in those states is con- -l0lled bv immense corporations dom- mated 5g d i=8 men. Of late it has been agressigelg opposed to organized labor. aasine its opposition o-tensib. or the violence and arbitrary demauc of the unions.

\ LESSON FOR ROTH.

D. \. Burke, American consul at Malaga, Spain, tells of the manner in which the difficulties between capital and labor were settled. or rather avoided, by one employer For forty years, there were two cotton mills in Malaga, side by side. In one of them there were frequent strikes and disputes. In tine other, employing about two thousand oper- atives. there has been no strike, no quarrel, but the utmost harmony and peace. How is it, the consul asks that running all these years there has been no trouble and no diseontent in this mill? Have higher wages been paid? No. Have the hours of tabor been fewer. No. Has the work been less lahorious or fatiguing than in the other? No. It is simply this: Senor Don Carlo Larios, the owner of the mill, has applied the law of kindness to his employees. He recog- nized that they were flesh and blood as he was; that when hurt they felt pain just as he would: when without food they were hungry just as he would be?n
 If m employe was sick Senor Larios sent a doctor to look after him and paid for the medicines. Wages were continued during the period of ill., ness. and in case of death, if the cir cumstarces of the family required, he paid the funeral expenses. When employees married he helped set them up in housekeeping.
 This mill was obliged during all of these years to compete with the one along side of it and with others The owner must have spent good deal of money in these acts of kindness for which he received no direct return, yet apparently the mill prospered. IL could not have existed forty years unless it was prosperous At his death short time ago Senor Larios was not only d leading business man but one of the most beloved citizens of Malaga, and thiry thousand people followed his remains to the tomb.
 While no doubt the kindness of the employer to his operatives won their good will and contribution to the sue cess of the mill, better explanation of the happy manner in which Senor Larios' policy worked out may per- haps be found in the statement that extraordinary diligence and care on the part of the employe in his or her work. or great activity displayed by an operative. was duly recompensed in some way at some time by the proprietor of the mill and every oper- atiye being aware of this sought to do his best In this there is lesson for both employers and their help. It is sometimes charged against labor unions that they operate to check effort or special ability on the part of employees by putting all on dead level of wages, thus injuring both the employer and the employe. The 1 great lesson Of course is that the vel fare of capital and of labor is mutual and that where there is the broadest and most complete recognition of this fact there both are most truly 1 prosperous.
