WANTS PUBLIC TRIAL.

BRANDON, VT, March 19.-The
Rev. George A. Cooke, pastor of the
Methodist church Of this town, who
has brought charges against the Rev.
DR.. James r. Day, chancellor Of SYRIA
cuse university, on the ground that
the chancellor has DETAINED the char
acter Of President Roosevelt, said to-
day that he would insist on a public
trial Of the charges.
"Charges of this nature" said Mr.
Cooke, should be aired in open court,
and shall not consent to any star
chamber hearing"
Mr.. Cooke said his charges were in
five specifications, all based on extracts
from Chancellor Days book, 1.-THE
Raid on Prosperity" and in these ex-
tracts he claims Chancellor Day has
violated the rule Of the Methodist Epis-
copal church, which forbids the defa-
nation Of magistrates. Mr.. Cooke said
he was a stranger to the New York
conference, where the charges will be
tried, and he did not know how favor
able the clergy of that conference
would be toward him.
He said, however, that he was pre-
pared to support with proof leach IT
his five specifications Of defamation on
the part Of Chancellor Day.

The Nature of Present Day In

Bargaining a Necessity.
Utterly Impossible for an EN-

a Thousand Employees.

The Rev. Charles Stelzle, head of the
labor department Of the Presbyterian
church, in his comments upon "The
Human Side Of the Labor Question"
has this to say about the greatly mis-
understood walking delegate:''
For an employer to know PERSONAL
ly thousand men and to deal with
them individually is an utter impossi-
bility. Because Of the nature Of pre-
sent day industry collective bargaining
has become necessity. This must be
true at least so far as general matters
are, concerned. Furthermore, the en-
ployer:: may really ;be. divided into a

The stockholders have perfect right
to do this; SO has the individual en-
ployer a right to have manager rep
resent his interests: It is also perfect
~ legitimate for number of concerns
to combine and form so-called trust,
which com bination Of interests may
elect a general manager. In. -.-
But the thousand workingmen must

1T MAKES A DIFFERENCE.

, The inconsistency of some men is
beyond all understanding. We met
man recently who openly disapproved
ofHpeople in his employ to belong to
unions. He stated that he would not
have any man or woman, girl or boy,
in his place Of business who belonged
to that kind Of organization. We
thereupon asked him If he had any
objection to" taking money in exchange
for his goods that had been earned
by a union man under union condi-
lions. He emphatically stated that the

RATS IN Y. M. C. A. BUILDING.
LIGHT AND POWER.
To the Editor of The Labor World:

To the Editor of The Labor World:
A recent issue of The Herald con-
tanned an article relating to the obnox-
iUus rat problem connected with the
new Y. NJ. G. A. building, and we are
somewhat surprised that the disserta-
ton dealt only with the case regarding
that one building since number Of
other buildings are, in sense at least
likewise afflicted, according to our in
depreciation of rat"
That rats are Interfering with the
work is more truth than fiction, If we
are to judge from what we have seen
and by statements of disSat1sfac tlon
which we have heard. AS WOrkmen,
we have very clear conception of the
cause of their being here. The Build
ers' exchange might also enlighten you.
The gnawing away of part of the
burlap from the walls of a room indi-
cate an appetite that can be compared
only to one caused by hunger, such as
the rat exhibits when he displaces the
more honorable toiler and against
which his honor and will power is too
weak to prevail His digestive powers
though must be absolutely perfect TO
enable him to Withstand the lemon
diet" that is handed him with entrees
of long hours and graded pay for de
gree of efficiency" with it's set maxi
mum and more pliable minimum basis.
The article further states that the
contractors are trying to devise ways
and means to obliterate the pest. We
hope that their efforts will prove COM
pletely satisfactory to all concerned,
not only in regard to the Y. NJ c. A.,
but the community in general. Not
being superstitiously inclined we can
not ascribe the visitation in the Y. M.
c. A case to an act of retributive JUS
tice prompted by the valiant" stand
Of said Y. M. C a. in defense of union
labor and against the forces that tend
to fertilize slum breeding conditions
Again we read ''they are in evidence
all day and doubly in evidence at
night" Such unselfish benevolence is,
of course, inspired by the old "iden-
tity of interest," farce. Perchance this
"identity of interest" policy was REG
ognized and honorably carried out by
according the rats plate at the
Builders exchange banquet
Ferrets are to be used in an effort
to remove the pests. Why not all pull
together, contractors, unionists, COM
mercial club men and all others in the
interests Of the city and completely
eradicate the evil?

good as that Of any one else; he did
not question how any money was Sc
cured that was exchanged for his
goods. Now, here we have a really
unique state of affairs. If the union
man refused to trade with this man,
it was case of boycott. If the bust
ness man would not allow, any Of his
employees to belong to labor union,
he was simply running his own busi-
ness. Yet when it came to hiring
union men he drew the line; in other
words, he would hire them as "free"
labor, and not as men who belonged to
a union. 1t seems to make all the
difference in the world whose OK Is
