The Labor Situation,
With scarcely an exception, negotia-
lions Of one kind and another have
ended the threatening disputes be-
tween capital and labor which have
hung over prosperity the last few
weeks. Perhaps prosperity itself had
to do with the happy issue. Good
times open up the wellsprings Of gen.
crosby and give the motto Live and
let live" a hearing. Prosperity in this
country originated In cooperation. Me-
diation and arbitration have been for
the, most part angels Of industrial
peace and guardians Of Industrial prog

Our prosperity has been achieved.
not inherited. A man may inherit
lands or mines or factory plants, but
the labor to make them productive Is
free and independent. Labor cannot
thrive alone; neither can the great pro-
prietor thrive alone. In times. like the
present, with prosperity in evidence
everywhere. concessions must be made.
OF late they -have been general and
usually in the interest OF labor.

It possible for the people to exercise a
