UNIONISM.


capitalists either for protection
or the purpose of cornering GER
tain commodities. Sometimes
the union of capital is the result
of an honest impulse to cheaper
production Of a given commod-
ity. Capital has right to COM
bine and so long as the result of
such combination is not detri-
mental to the public welfare no
one has right to interfere. But
the moment the rights of the
people are violated then the pub
lie has cause for complaint.
Labor has the same right to
combine as has capital and it
seems that of late years this
right has been worked with a
vengeance. The idea of union
ism is ali right, but like many
other things conceived in right
eousness it has fallen into evil
ways and no longer commands
the respect of the better and
t1i liking class of laboring men.
AS times and conditions
Change, brought about partly by
the effort of capital, there is and
must ever be an effect on the
supply and demand for labor.
This is one reason for the exist
ence of a labor union. When
capitalists, through combination
or individual effort, secure con-
troll of commodities constituting
the necessities of life no honest
man will deny the laborer the
right to force condition where
by he can meet the conditions
brought upon him by capital.
If capital shall become so
greedy and powerful as to raise
the prices of certain articles of
manufacture it is no more than
right for laboring men to band |
together for protection and to
compel capital to raise the wage
scale so that the greater expense
of living may be met. The law
of supply and demand cuts no
inconsiderable figure in the sol
ution of what the relation be-
tween capital and labor is to be.
For years the common people
have been complaining against
the encroachments on public
rights by the various trusts, cor
porations and syndicates which
seem to have had as the sole
mission of their existence the
monopolization of something nee .
essary to the life and well-being
of the people. Beyond doubt
the rights of the people have
been tramped under the mono
polistic hoof many times. This
was wrong-a sad injustice, as
we all know.
Two wrongs never make a
right. Capital should be con <
trolled and forced to toe the
mark on a square deal for the ,
public. On the other hand a la
Dor union, composed largely of ,
the offscourings of earth, led by ,
some anarchistic, flannel-mouth- It
ed inciter to riot, has yet to place a
itself on record for adapting
means generally approved by the :.
better class of citizens. Now r
and then a labor union is con- a
trolled by right-minded men and
public sentiment stands back of il
such a hody for the simple raa- s
son that no unjust demands are
made. 5
The honest and capable work Il
man does not need union back e
of him-he can secure employ
ment anywhere. He becomes a =
tool by means of which he as II
sists an incompetent and un- h
man to a position he a
not fill. /.

SILENCE Is GOLDEN.

Senator Henry Eben Burnham of New
Hampshire, whose home Is in Manehes'
ter and who, according to the Con
gressional Directory, "hns always been
"a republican in politics" has been re-
nominated by y caucus of the repub'
lican members Of the legislature OF the
state which he represents in Washing
ton. Senator Brnham term began
in March 1901. Some of his political
opponents investigated his record in
the official journal of the senate and
found that during his six years Of SER
vice he has made but one speech That
in itself might not have counted against
him since speeches count less than votes.
But Senator Burnham's voting was a
minus quantity on several important
occasions. He did not vote on the Dubois
amendment, which carried out Presi'
dent Roosevelt's suggestion that the
utmost publicity be given the transac-
tons of great trusts, nor on the reten'
ton or repeal of the tax on bucket
shops, nor on the repeal of the war
revenue tax, nor on the bill to provide
permanent census Office. He was
silent on the pure food bill, the 18th
milan canal bill, civil government in the
Philippines, ship subsidies, Chinese i'm
migration, reciprocity with Cuba and
the national White mountain reserva-
ton. In all debates on the railroad rate
bill he voted with Senator Aldrich
against all amendments whenever yea
and nav votes were called for. In view
of the result, Senator Burnham probab-
ly thinks that silence is golden.

A Knocker Knocked.

Then, too, the time spent in foolish,
needless and worthless discussion pre-
vented important matters from receiv-
ing the attention they deserved. A
Windham county member of the upper
house, for instance, attempted in the
closing days of the session to make a
lengthy and learned objection to Ger
tain pure food measure because 1T re-
ferred to substances injurious to man
"and other animals. 1t seemed to him
extremely strange that the human race
should be classed in the animal king
dom. and it was only after explanation
that the federal law contained the same
expression and that scarecrows and
wooden Indians didn t eat that he was
willing to be pacifed.-Brattleboro Re
former.
An altogether undeserved "knock "
against member who proved his value
time and again The incident was in
consequential; nobody tried to make
lengthy and learned objection to the
phrase referred to, and the whole affair
did not take over Is minutes time
"Man' was retained, along with Goth
er animals, - only to be classified where
he belonged by the lower house, when
the bill got there. The senate con-
Cured in an amendment covering prac-
tically what was proposed in that body
in the first place, and the act was per
fected in phraseology so that it did not
appear ridiculous. A good many of the
criticisms aimed at the Legislators are
doubtless deserved; others, like this
one, have absolutely no foundation.

BY Their Breaths We Shall Know Them.
(St. Adams Messenger,)

And so our friends in the "lily
white" district are having their trou
bes with the demon rum, after all. All
of which goes to show that simply vot-
ing no license and buying and drinking
liquor just the same is just as much
of farce as prohibition ever was. 1t
will be hard to get away from the phil
osophy that was so much despised when
it was suggested in the old days of the
campaign against the former law, that
it was better to vote as you drink and
be honest, than to record glittering
virtue on the statute books or the town
records, make a pious pretense of supe,
rior righteousness about it, and then
make no effort to live up to it. 1t all
comes back to the elemental fact that
statutes and votes and public meetings
that declare for total abstinence are
not worth picayune until the public
supposed to be behind such sentiments
actually stops drinking The real prb-
hibitionist is best judged by his breath.
The Brattleboro reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1907-1912, 1907-01-11
THAT SALARY GRAB.

In view of the large amount Of dis
cussion that has been caused by the
so-called "salary grab" of the last
legislature the attitude Of the attorney
general himself on the question cannot
fail to be of interest Act No 10 of
the acts of 1866 contained this clause:
"This act shall be construed as APP
plying to the pay Of members and
other officers mentioned in this section,
for the full term of the present SEES
SION" BY this measure the salary of
the legislators was raised from 81 to So
per day and there was no doubt as to
its intent. When the laws were revised
in 1880 the provision in regard to the
full term etc, was omitted, and al
though no note was made in the com
mittee s report the omission made the
intent of the statute ambiguous. For
this reason Attorney General Fits adj
vised the state auditor TO Withhold pay
ment until doubt had been cleared by
the passage of resolution authorizing
payment for the full term. Mr.. Fits
says he gave his opinion with the ex-
pectation that such resolution would
be passed and, in fact, drew the resolu-
ton introduced by Mr.. Bailey Of Essex.
The resolution, therefore, was not pass
ed in defiance of the attorney general
although there is still some doubt about
its wisdom in the minds of many people.
The Brattleboro reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1907-1912, 1907-01-11

In the months Of May, June, July
and August, 1905, under license reg
ime in Montpelier there were 13S ar
rests for intoxication. During the cor
responding months of 1906 under no
license the number was only 20. These
figures show the value of a law that
has public sentiment behind it and can
be strictly enforced on that account
It's safe to say that in the old pro
hibition days Montpelier never had
such a clean four months as those
last mentioned
