there's nothing to arbitrate."
There is a solution Of the problem
and its coming fast. The despotic and
unjust actions of the corporate trusts
are Fastening It's coming. We ought
to have had it long ago. The rights
of the people will always be in jeop-
ardy just as long as they allow some-
one other than th emselves to own
their utilities.
Government ownership of public
utilities ought to be the watchword Of
all our people. It has been demon
strated again and again that private
ownership of public utilities is a
menace to human society. The people
of Duluth have had a water and gas
lesson on the subject from which we
hope they have benefited.
1t is not, possibly, that the men
comprising these corporations and
trusts are worse than other men, but
because that society has delegated to
them rights and privileges which we
believe the Creator never intended to
be delegated to anyone. Society has no
moral right to divest itself Of. the re-
sponsibility of taking care Of itself,
and every attempt to do so on the
part Of society since the world began,
has resulted in confusion and disorder
to the body polite
= There are many questions Of grave
national Importance before the Amer
lean people today, but none more con-
sequential to us as a nation than gov
eminent ownership of all public utili-
ties. The reprehensible methods Of
public utility corporations are sowing
the seeds Of anarchy in the minds Of
otherwise good men. Tn: rascality
Of the corporations Is shouidered upon

stincts Of human nature speak for
government control and placing re-

A man that Is not committed heart
and soul to government ownership

graph company is sending out fake

A HIN! OF LIFE,

Don't look for the flaws as you go
through life;
And even when you find them.
It Is wise and kind to be somewhat
blind,
= And look for the virtues behind
them;
For the cloudiest night has a hint Of
light
Somewhere in the shadows hiding.
1t is better by far to hunt for a star
Than the spot on the sun abiding.
The world will never adjust itself
To suit your whims to the letter;
Some things must be wrong your
whole life long;
And the sooner you know it the
better.
1t is folly to fight with the Infinite
And go under at last in the wrestle;
wiser man shapes into Gods good
plan,
AS the water shapes into a vessel

LABOR DAY PREPARATIONS.

Labor day celebration and parade
will be a fruitful subject of discuss
sion for the next seven or eight days.
According to plans now being perfect
ed the committee in charge of prepa-
rations is determined tina: Labor day
rejoicings for 1907 shall excel all for
mer achievements.
1t Is good live committee, earnest
and energetic in it's work, and we be-
speak for them the cordia! support,
not only Of every union man, but Of
every friend of the labor movement.
Celebrations in previous years have
been so prominently successful that
We presume there will be no marked
diversity of methods in this one, but
must demonstrate to the public our
progressiveness along all lines that
tend to the advancement of industrial
usefulness. The committee will GER
tainly do it's full share, and it's up to
each member to do his.
We are not inviting you to work.
We are inviting you to play, and re-
lax, and rejoice that your honored vo-
cation has been recognized by the
laws of the land, and a day has been
set apart for the exclusive use Of the
toilers Of every rank and station.
Labor unions In the United States,
and other countries too. have now
reached a point, at which they may
feel reasonably assured of steady
advance in the future. Whatever sue
cess we have won has been gained in
the hard school of experience. We
have had no gratuities given us. We
had to struggle for our rights, and
that frequently, against heavy odds.
But, ought we not therefore prize our
achievements the more for the many
noble, self-denying efforts, they have
cost?
In reality our work is bu, just be-
gun. Complex questions difficult
enough Of solution are still awiting
U.s. The two great strikes now in
progress are but an evidence Of the
great need Of an industrial philosophy
that will have right and justice for its
foundation. Let us come together
joyfully, touch elbows, exchange greet
ings and show to the world that the
great army Of Intelligent and indus
trious toilers is a unit in everything
that tends to the advancement Of So
ciety, and bettermentaof mankind.
