Standpatters Not Helping.

Congress IN 1890 adopted what is
known as the antitrust law. 1t is
clearly seen. however. that IL needs
amendment. The spirit Of the statute is
10 preserve the force of competition in
business.
Il have referred to these things in
order To call your attention to the fact
that the standpatters are not helping to
solve the problem. They content them
selves with the constant reiteration of
the fear that if We touch any Of these
things We may overturn the fabric OF
commerce and may destroy the prosper
tty for which all lovers OF the human
kDd are seeking.
when IL is proposed 10 further regu-
late railway rates they shudder lest we
may hurt the railways. The prosressiyes
saudder lest they may not b" able TO
help those who are suffering the ini,s
tice of rate systems that are admittedly
.indefensible.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
LONDON. January 1.-Another week. S
electoral energy has passed without yield
ing much assistance to the would-be
prophets. Never in modern times has a
British election aroused such widespread
interest at home and abroad. and never
has one been fought on such a confusion
of issues. The questions Of the house of
lords, the budget and tariff reform occupy
public interest, not to equal degrees. but
to a varying extent in different localities.
Investigation into the feeling among
the constituencies seems to point to the
government returning to power with a
small majority, although the possibility
of unionist landslide cannot be dismissed
as an absurdity. Nothing has occurred
to show that Blatchford's articles on the
German peril have become an issue, but
they have certainly been widely read, for.
apart from their publication in a news
paper with the greatest circulation, they
have been issued as a two-cent pamphlet.
One Of the largest distributing houses.
which controls the sale of newspapers at
many railway stations, ordered 500 copies
only the first day. and found itself
obliged to increase the order daily, until
it reached 5000 on the fifth day after
the publication.

TO INVOLVE 10000 MEN
H. B. PERHAM PREDICTS
SPREAD OF RAILWAY STRIKE.
Declares If Differences Are Not Ad.
justed Amicably Other Unions
Will Declare War.

"If an amicable adjustment OF the diff
ferences between the northwestern rail-
roads and the switchmen is not reached
through the mediation conference here
the strike will spread and probably 10000
men will become involved" declared H.
B. Perham, head of the railway depart
ment OF the American Federation of
Labor, yesterday.
This increase will not be among the
switchmen alone. but will come from
other organizations like the freight
handlers. the boiler makers and such
affiliated associations. The switchmen
are for peace If possible. but are de-
termined on a general strike If these
plans for mediation fail"
Means General Strike.
Mr.. Perham, who hastened here from
ST. Paul to urge action on the federal
mediation board, with a view to bring
ing both sides together. said that failure
Of the mediation plan would mean a gen.
eraI strike that would tie up railroad
traffic. He added, however, that he is
hopeful OF some peaceful settlement
No affiliated organizations will take
sympathetic action pending the result OF
vi
alton board. which will be resumed Mon
day. The American Federation Of Labor
has left the whole matter in the hands
of Mr.. Perham, who is head of the Order
Of Railway Telegraphers. which carried
on the recent strike against the Northern
Pacific and Great Northern railroads, and
is a member of the executive committee
OF the federation.
No Immediate Developments.
Mr. Perham had an opportunity to have
a talk with President Gompers of the
federation yesterday, but his call was
largely incident to the New Year open
house reception at Mr.. Campers home.
There were no formal conferences. Mr..
perlafn declaring that there would be no
DEVELOPMENTS whatever until the resump-
t!on of the conference with the mediation
board Monday.
No decision has been reached by the
mediation board as to the selection of d
third arbitrator in the case Of the dis
pute between the Illinois Central and its
SWitchmcn.

Denunciation of Standpatters.

Joseph G. Cannon was then, as now.
the most conspicuous member of the
national House Of Representatives. In
all those years I never heard Of SIN
gle utterance from him that could by
any possibility be construed into friend
illness toward the cause that was struS
CLING on through all these difficulties.
..Aldrich was then, as now, one of the
leaders of the Senate of the United
States. And If any stardpatter can dts
cover a sclitar- .xpreSsiOn upon his
part that helped the movement to its
final fruiticn | would be glad to have
ii pointed out.
Hale, Payne. DalZell were then, as
now, prominent in the Congress of the
United states. But / challenge the
memory of all who hear me to recall
one single sympathetic word in the
interest OF the people in their strus-
gle with the railways
Capt J. A. L. Hull then. as
now, the chairman of one of the principal
committees Of the House and a man OF
wide influence throughout the country
And yet I never saw him lift an ounce

We were then carrying.

I'VE know that in many fielos OF in
dustry home competition had been sub
stantially destroyed. We intended to
subject our home production to the fear
Of foreign competition if prices were
raised above fair and reasonable profit.
'The progressives, after years of
struggle. brought the convention to
full acknowledgment of the justice of
their position. With respect to further
regulations of interstate commerce the
standpatter occupies just the same po-
sition that he has always occupied.
1T is sufficient to say that the agita-
tion for the strengthening of the Law
regulating common carriers became
acute about 1899. 1t finally resulted IN
the amendment Of 1908. 1t was a long.
weary campaign. The standpatters were
either silent or in opposition.

date for congress-cannon
and Aldrich Denounced.

DES MONIES. Iowa, January 1.-Sena-
Tor Albert B. Cummins in a speech to-
night at a dollar dinner gwen by the So
called progressive republicans of Iowa
served notice that the fight for progress
sive principles is not at an end.
He said that he did not attempt to OBJ
e,urc or to minimize the extent of their
defeat in the recent special session OF
Congress. but that if any one harbors the
delusion that the passage of the recent
tariff law ended the fight for fair and
reasonable protective duties II would oe
wise for him to at once reform his con-
clusion.
He criticised the course of Representa-
tive ]. A. T. Hull of the seventh Iowa
district and pledged his support to Judge
s. F. Prouty, who recently announced ms
candidacy for the Office at the next cleo
ton.
Many republicans from all parts OF the
stare were present At a conference dur
ing the day the advisability OF brA-ging
out progressive candidate for governor
was discussed.
Senator Cummins' Speech.
In his speech Senator Cummins SAID:
with respect to the tariff. the staho-
patters feel that it makes little : any
difference how high the duties are IL
they le high enough to exclude inporta-
tions. When they approach the subject
their first, and. l have sometimes
thought, their only concern is for the
producer. They are so much afraid or
hurting him that they close their ears
to every voice save his, and assuming
that, knowing what he wants, he Will not
ask for more than he deserves.
1.-THE echoes of the platform of 1905
which contains the pledges Of the repub-
lican party, have become so faint IN
their councils that they are drowned In
the cries of impoverished manufacturers.
On the other hand. the progresslves re-
member that we promised the American
people that the duties on imported COM
ne.itive commodities should be measured
by the difference between the cost or
production in this and rival lands, and
that we made the promise In order to
give at once protection to the producer
from unequal competition and protection
to the consumer from avaricious extor-
tion.
