LEPERs OF THE HAwAus.
Conditions the Island of Moho-
kai Have Been Mfsunderstood-

Conditions on the Island of Molo-
ka Have Been Mfsunderstood-
No greater misconception of any
public institution prevails to-day than
the general idea of the leper settle
ment on the island of Molokai, r. B.
Kidd says in Harper's Weekly. In
stead of the entire island being used
for such purpose, the settlement COM
prises only eight square miles OF
total area of 2e1 square miles. 1t oc-
cupies a tongue of land on the north
ern side of Molokai. The north, east
and west shores OF this tiny spot are
washed by the Pacific, while on the
south side rise precipitous cliffs OF
from 1900 to 1000 feet, which make
the isolation seem even more hopeless
than the beautiful deep-blue waters of
the sea ever could. The most difficult
and dangerous trail, constantly
manned by government guards. foils
escape, If it were ever contemplated
by hesland side.
Naturally the fear of being isolated
at the settlement caused the natives
| to thwart segregation. Generally i.
was done by secreting their afflicted.
yet there are instances of lepers u.s.
ing violence to resist arrest. The ne
cessity of severing ties of the strong
est affection involved grief of the deep
est description, and many are the
cases of abnegation where the clean
have accompanied the afflicted to the
settlement to die there with them
Then, too, by degrees there grew III
the belief among the natives that ter
rible mistakes of diagnosis by the
physicians were consigning innocen
and helpless people to the living sepul
cher. And as each year failed to eradi
cate the disease as had been represent
ed, but still claimed its toll, the belle
became almost universal that large
proportion of those committed wer
sacrifices to the despotism and ie
norance of the white mans medica
science that boosted but could no
cure.
BY degrees, as the government rea
lied the inability of the afflicted t
care for themselves, conditions wer
improved. until finally the authoritie
took entire charge of the lepers, an
to-day the appropriations for the MAR
tenance and care of these wards ar
most generous and exceed $125,000 al

Alliance the Ultimate Result of
War Between Labor and Capital

willingly pay better wages if they
can charge higher rates. If the roads
lose out the service will he impaired,
the employees will suffer, desirable
improvements and extensions will
not be made, and the public will lose
indirectly as much perhaps as the
proposed increase in rates. And the
cost of the war, the loss OF time,
the injury to commerce, the suffer-
ing and want that may ensue must be
apportioned to the productive agen-
cies of the country who alone can
repair the damage.
The moral of ii all is this: An
economic system--a system of distri-
button in which such things can and
do occur, is radically wrong some
where. Like a fever in the body
such disturbances demonstrate the
presence of organic disease.
We do not assume to diagnose the
case, but two or three things are
on the surface. Some one said re-
Gently that by the use of machinery
the productive forces have been un-
duly stimulated. or in other words,
production has outrun distribution
and consumption. But this cannot
be the whole truth, for 1t hardly
consists with the constant rise in the
prices of products. The multiplied
ton of productive forces has not
been uniform. II may have been ex-
cessive in some lines. and deficient
i'm others. And 1t is undoubtedly
true that the agencies of distribu-
ton have not developed TO the same
extent as have the productive forces;
and the failure in distribution COM
pels a failure in consumption. Thus
we see poverty and affluence, want

/ Joslin, Ill, Dec. 16.-EditOr The
/ Argus: Some years ago, perhaps 20,
| ] said, or wrote, that the war be-
tween labor and capital would end
in an alliance of these contending
/ forces. For. as the organizations
become more complete. war is more
and more distinctive. and it will be
cheaper to fraternize and the more
so as an innocent third party the
ultimate consumer" foots the bill,
Was the prediction, if it may so
he called, rash one? For example.
the strike in the anthracite coal field
few years ago. for the settlement
of which a certain distinguished cit
izen won great applause. And since
that time every consumer of hard
coal has paid 50 to SO per toneextra,
and who gets the money?
And it is possible sometimes that
while on the surface of things there
is war deep down in the secret coun-
ellis of the leaders there is al under
standing. And this may happen
oftener than we imagine.
Just now we are threatened with
a railroad strike of unusual proper
tions. Should it come great injury,
almost incalculable, will result, not
only to the contending parties, but
to the entire nation. The avenues
Of commerce being INSTRUCTED, bus
mess will be paralyzed, industry will
be unemployed. and if it continues
any length of time the dense popu-
lation of the cities will be scant OF
food and fire. Great distress must
occur If this battle is fought to a
finish.
1t is noticeable that this crisis
comes just when the railroads de-
mand for higher rates is about to be
decided. The railroads have made
no secret of their desire to enlist
their employees on their side in this
No doubt the trainmen
consider 1t a good time to push their
claims. No doubt the railroads in |
support Of their demand for higher |
rates would think themselves COM |
PEELED to resist. The situation IA |
vors a serious struggle.
But if we look below the surface |
we shall see at once that these hos
tile parties have at the bottom of af-
fairs n common interest. No matter
how the strike may end the public
pays the cost. The railroads would

fects only the individual creditors,
whereas a failure to perform the
public service the corporation has as
sumed falls upon the entire nation.
Therefore, I hold that a forfeiture
of franchise should be the penalty
inflicted on every public service cor
poration that allows it's employees to
go on strike, and thus fails to per-
form its duty 10 the public.
OF course, methods must be pro-
vided for an equitable adjustment Of
questions that may arise between the
company and its servants. Pending
such adjustment no interruption of
the service shall occur and any en-
ploye quitting his job" shall for
felt all his rights. This means legal
lied arbitration, and also arbitration
that is absolutely impartial. and that
the right of the public shall be safe
guarded. II means that when the
question is between good wages and
efficient service on the one hand,
and dividends on the other that div
idends shall be considered secondary.
It means in a word such regulation
and control of public service corpor-
ations as shall insure justice 10 the
employees, and also satisfactory
performance OF their duties TO the
public. This does not mean govern
ment ownership but it proposes TO nc
complish the same result.

and luxury. crowded close together.
Indeed it is safe to affirm that the
problem Of the equable distribution
of wealth is the one greatest econ
omic problem that now confronts our
civilization.
We remark right here, without
stopping to enlarge, that the doctrine
Of the vested right" of capital en-
ployed in the distribution of the
products of industry to earn divi-
dends is economically immoral. It's
earnings should always be less than
the earnings Of capital employed
strictly in production. OF course la
Dor employed in both should be paid,
but capital employed in production
has a first claim which should be
fully satisfied.
1t Is, however, of more practical
Importance to observe that situa-
lions like those that now threaten
in the railroad business should be
sternly handled by the strong arm
of the state. l have said, and l
stand by il, that when a corporation
which has assumed the important
and indispensable duty of the trans
pOrtatiOn Of products of actual i'm
mediate public necessity is unable or
unwilling 70 make such arrangements
with its employees as to secure un-
interrupted and efficient service, that
corporation, owing its existence to
the state. forfeits its right TO exist;
and should be proceeded against as II
in default of its financial obligations.
