THE ATTITUDE OF UNIONISM.

Samuel Gompers may be perfectly con-
fident Of the innocence OF the McNa-
maras and McManigal. who have been
arrested for the dynamite Outrages, but
he does not use the language OF
confidence. Innocent men demand only
an opportunity TO be heard in their
own defence. They wish to clear them
selves and ask nothing more than fair
trial. Now. the last thing Gompers wants
Is a fair trial. He 10 sooner hears OF
the arrests than he does his utmost to
arouse class feeling and stir up class
prejudice. lie declares the finding OF
explosives TO be all plant ana
mouths about the consideration shown to
capital" when 1t is proceeding against
labor. Not a word has Gompers to say
OF horror at the outrages. He does not
express the hope that If any labor
unionist has been so misguided as to use
dynamite in labor's struggle the guilty
man shall suffer the penalty OF his
crimes. He does not offer to put every
facility under his control at the COM
mand of the government for tracing IN
the records Of the unions any criminality.
so that the foul stain CT murder, II
there is one. on unionism may be wiped
out. We have known even the wicked
trusts" when they or any OF their
officers have been accused Of wrongd0-
Ing. to assist the public prosecutor to
the best Of their ability. But when have
the labor unions done It?
IL the unions have not encouraged
crimes Of violence, and we do not accuse
them Of doing so, they have never repro
bated such crimes in the only effective
way, namely, by doing their utmost to
bring the guilty, whether uniOnists or
not, to Justice. When has union sur
rendered TO the police an overen-
thusiastic striker who had beaten a
"scab" to death? When has one offered
reward for the arrest and conviction OF
q striker guilty of violence? At the most
the leaders have disavowed responsibility
for violence, while the cause" tenn
porarlly profted by intimidation.
1t is time that unionism changed these
tactics. The brutality and contempt OF
life and property exhibited too often In
strikes breed In the minds Of hOtheads
and reckless unionists just such crimes
as Orchard was found guilty Of. These
particular outrages for which the Nc
Namaras and McManigal have been ar
rested bear all the marks Of having been
committed in the interests Of organized
labor. 1t is impossible TO escape the
conclusion that the whole series of them,
and it Is a long one, was carried out for
the purpose Of intimidating non-union
and open shop builders of iron work.
And so long as organized labor mumbles
and shufles In dealing with the use Of
violence by its members In Industrial
conflicts it faces the possible shame Of
having some persons more or less high
In its councils convicted Of resorting to
wholesale murder and destruction Of
property in their hOtheaded zeal. From
the beating up" Of a few "scabs' in a
strike it is only step to blowing them
up by the trainload. as in Colorado, or
the shopful, as iii California.

FALSE ALARMS.

The Tribune has received from a cor.
respondent in Manasquan, n. j., a letter
of protest against the approval of the
Canadian reciprocity agreement which
clearly illustrates the misconceptions
which many people in the farming dis
tricts entertain about the possible effects
Of the free entry into this country Of
Canadian agricultural products. Our
correspondent says:
1t is not reciprocity If one of the parties
receives much greater benefit than the
other, and Mr.. Cannon knows that Can
ada is going TO get the best OF the bar
gain and the American farmer is going
TO be greatly Injured. Take one article:

The statistics gathered by the Agricu!t-

ment that the reduction Of the duty on
potatoes made by the Wilson-Gorman
law reduced production in the United
States. On the contrary, in 1895, the
year after the WiisonGorman law was
passed, production here reached the
largest total on record up TO that time
297, 237 600 bushels. q gain of 127,OOO,OO0
