Industrial Relations
Commission WakeUD


2 President Taft transmitted to con-
gress a special message covering nu-
merous subjects. Among therecom-
mendations included in the message
was one for the appointment of
commission on Industrial relations.
The following are excerpts from the
message '"The extraordinary growth
of industry in the past two decades
and its revolutionary changes have
raised new and vital questions as to
the relations between employers and
wage earners which have become
matters ofp ressing public concern.
Any interruption to the nor
NAL and peaceful relations between
employer and wage Garner involves
public discomfort and in many cases
public disaster. Such Interruptions
become, therefore, quite as much a
matter of public concern as restraint
of trade or monopoly. Industrial re-
lations concern the publicfor double
reason. We are directly interested in
the maintenance Of peaceful and
stable industrial conditions for the
sake Of our own comfort and we'll
being; but society is equally inter-
ested, in it's sovereign civic capacity,
in seeing that our institutions are
effectively maintaining justice and fair
dealing between any classes of citizens
whose economic interests may seem to
clash.* Numerous special in
vestigations, official and unofficial,
have revealed conditions in more than
one industry which have Immediately
beenrecogn lied on all sides as en-
tirely out of harmony with accepted
American standards. It is probable
that to a great extent the remedies for
these conditions, so far as the RENE
dies involve legislation, lie in the field
of state action; but such a compre-
hensive inquiry as is necessary to fur
nish basis for intelligent action
must be undertaken on national initi-
alive and must be nationwide in its
scope. One legitimate OBJ
ject of such an official investigation
and, report is to enlighten and inform
public opinion, which of itself will
often induce or compel the reform of
unjust conditions or the abatement
of unreasonable demands
There is already available much in
formation on certain aspects of the
subject in the reports Of the federal
and state bureaus of labor and in
other official and unofficial publica-
tions. One essential part Of the pro-
posed inquiry would naturally be to
assemble, digest and interpret this in
formation so far as it bears upon our
present industrial conditions In Ad-
dition to this, the commission should
inquire into the general conditions of
labor in our principal Industries, into
the existing relations between employ
ers and employees in those industries,
into the various methods wAich have
been tried for maintaining mutually
satisfactory relations between employ
ers and employees and for avoiding or
adjusting trade disputes, and into the
scope, methods and resources of fed
eral and state bureaus of labor and
the methods by which they might
more adequately meet the responsible
ties which, through the work of the
commission above recommended,
would be more clearly brought to
light and defined.

CRIPPLED BOY
=. WAS DESERTED

Minot, N. D, Nov. 2o.-A letter TO
Col. Alex. Scarlet, president Of the
humane society, from E. F.. Won Esche,
a claim holder living near Berg post
office in WiInams county, contains a
pitiful story of al aged mothers
desertion of a Z year old cripple lad.
The woman's name is given as Mrs.
Haverty and 1t appears that she left
Minot about a year g and took her
residence on a claim six miles from
Berg, adjoining that of Mr.. Won Esche.
According to Mr.. Won Esche, h lit
tie lad cal neither walk nor talk and
Is left alone very frequently by the
aged mother, probably about 65 years
old, while she visits at the neighbors
or goes to Berg, six miles away, spend
ing considerable time away from
home.
Only a few days ago when Mr.. Won
Esche went to Berg he stopped in at
the Harverty place and discovered the
little lad there all alone, with no fire
in the stove and nothing to eat. When
he returned that afternoon, the lad was
still alone and the old lady still away.
He gave the little fellow some much
needed attention and notified Colonel
Scarlet. According to Mr.. Won Esche,
the mother is; unable financially to
properly support herself and the child.
Mr.. Scarlet has been busy investi-
eating the case and seeking informa-
ton concerning the woman here. She
used to reside in Minot, and efforts are
being made to locate the mother and
make proper provisions for the boy.

Dickinson, N. d, Nov. 3o.-Fred

with horse stealing and en- route to
Wadena, Mimi, in charge of the
sheriff from there, faxed suicide by
drinking diluted carbolic acid short
ly after the arrival Of N. p. train No.
4 at Dickinson. Naurath Is said to
have hired a horse and buggy for a
short drive at Wadena, Mimi, but
drove the rig to Medora, which result
ed in his arrest there and the sheriff
going to Medora after the prisoner.
On. arrival at Dickinson Naurath told
the sheriff he was going to lie down
on the seat and go to sleep, at the
same time throwing his coat over his
head, but was detected drinking from
a small bottle, which developed later
contained diluted carb6ic acid of
sufficient strength to make a person

MANSFIELD HAS
Been SUGGESTED

WilTiston, N. D., Nov. 20,--It lis un-
derstood that the term of M. s. will
Jams, receiver Of the Wflliston land
Office, expires during the first part of
next year and 1t is to be expected that
his will be chosen from the
party that will inaugurate q new ad-
mtnistration March 4. While few be-
lieve that Woodrow Wilson will draw
the party line with strictness, he will
be upheld in filling actual vacancies
from the ranks of those in sympathy
with him and whose continued efforts
and unwavering loyalty made the
nomination and election of q progress
sive democrat possible.
In this connection it would be graf
flying to many people Of Williston
and those having business with the
landoffice to see the place worthily
and wisely filled by q resident of Will
liston. In looking the field over
friends of Charles A. Mansfield, re-
CARELESS of party, feel that he is ad-
mirably fitted and thoroughly deserv-
ing of the appointment when the va
cancy occurs. Mr.. Mansfield has long
been a staunch democrat but in re-
cent years has become a convert to
progressive principles and has thrown
his influence with that wing of his
party. AS a delegate to the Balti-
more convention he stood firmly with
the rest Of the North Dakota, dele
CATION for the success of the progress
sive cause within the party. He is
financially interested in the commit
nifty and acquainted with local condi-
lions. He Is also capable, broad ana
liberal and his friends assert that no
more popular OF efficient man could
be named. -. ~ 81

farmers ARE
not TO BLAME

jamestown Capital: Regarding the
criticism which has been aimed at
North Dakota farmers that they have
not been able to get all the help and
the kind of skilled help they needed
this fall because Of the alleged reason
that they did not give the help good
enough places to sleep and enoughtof
good ~victuals. sdAlf, .Schollander, Of
Jamestown, takes exception to the
statements very vigorously in CONVEX
sation with The Daily Capital. He
says the North Dakota farmer Is
handicapped because Of the fact that
he wants his extra help in the fall
just when every other farmer and
business needs extra labor. This is
one Of the reasons for high wages.
1t is impossible to provide beds
and rooms in the homes for all the
extra help necessary to handle the
crops in a rHsktand then some OF
the help that has flooded the state
this fall does not deserve. to be adj
mttted to the homes, says Mr.. Schol-
lander. The food provided is sufici-
emit in nourishing quality, is given
in abundance and the quality Is such
that none can take exception to it.
Many of the threshing and harvest
ing crews are given a lunch in the
morning and afternoon, between reg
ular meals while there are some nan
ayers Of threshing crew hat make
it a point to supply crew during
each week with something in the ma
ture of a treat of q box of apples,
q box Of oranges or a box Of cigars.
a little extra tobacco or something
out Of the ordinary to jolly the boys
along when they are working so long
and steadily. Managers of farms and
harvest crews are judges of human
nature, just like managers Of crews
and organizations of men In other
business lines, and they know that
a crew that Is with the manager is
the n that does the most and best
work.
The high wages this fall have been
against securing the best men, Mr.,
Schollander also says The men did
not care whether or not they work
ed. If any trif1ing thing didn't Just
exactly suit a fancy they knew there
were ten other farmers anxious to
hire them. Then again 1t didn't take
so long to secure a stake and
some Of the men were uneasy when
they had any money ahead and in
their pockets.
Farmers this fall paid $3.50 n 81
for men that didn't know the . first
thing about farming except to swing
a shovel and there ts mot a farmer
who can afford to- pay such wages
