GOVERNOR WILSON SPEAKS OF
TRUSTS AND THEIR COMBlNA-
TION TO CONTROL LABOR.
PRAISES LABOR MEN
American Labor Up to Date is the
Cheapest in the World and Tells
Why-Successfu Trust Builders
Also Successful Preventers.

Norton, Kan, Oct. S.-That The
very men who have been most
successful in building up the trusts
are also the very men VINO have
been most successful in preventing
the organization of labor was the
contention Of Governor Woodrow
Wilson in an address here today
devoted largely to what he charac-
terized as "the pervasivo power of
the sreat interests which now dom
mate our development"
Don't you know" he asked. "that
one of the objects of their combi-
nation is to control the labor mar
ket? and do you imagine that they
have ever set deliberate plans for
giving the wCrkingman anything
comparable in the way of wages to
the proportion of the profits which
they themselves pocket? They do
not have to give the laboring man
any more than he can get in the
competition of the market And they
do not give him any more. AS a
matter of fact, some of the most
highly productive industries in this
country pay very much lower wages
than the unprotected industries. And
some Of the most highly protected
industries pay wages that are be-
low the living scale, at the same
time that the prices they are max
ing are so great that they can
build new factories out of their sur
plus every second year. 1t is one
of the grandest pieces Of bluff and
humbug that has ever been known
in the history of political decep-
ton

American labor | want to see con-
ditions exist IN which men will
compete for American labor | want
to see q time come when we shall
realize that the highest priced labor
in the world is the cheapest labor
in the world, that what is produced
by brains and intelligence and skill
full touch is a great deal cheaper
than what is produced by stupidity
and dullness and the whip OF
the master.
Il tell you this, that American
labor up to date is the cheapest in
the world. can prove it. Ameri-
can manufacturers compete in for
eign markets in the sale of goods
in those markets,
near those markets, by labor that
receives only one-third the remu-
neration of American labor. Now,
what does that mean? 1t means
they can afford to pay workingmen
three times as much and still ur-
dersell heir competitors in the for
eign markets, and yet the Ameri-
can workingman is told that the
of his wages depends upon
the protective tariff. 1t doesn't. 1t
depends upon him. 1t depends up
on what is inside of his thinking
box And when you once get to
system of regulated monopoly, then
you get to a system Of controlled |
labor don't forget that. Narrow the
lines of competition and you stiffer |
the lines of labor control. You |

monopolist can determine the
amount of goods to be produced
and therefore determine the amount
OF laborers to be employed and the
prices that the goods are to bring.
"As | travel from one part Of the
country to the other continued the
governor, Il see no essential differ
ence among the people in the diff
ferent parts OF il. The same thing
is written in their eyes and ii is
not a sleam of fierceness. 1t is a
light of self-confidence. They know
what they want and they know
they are going to get it Anybody
who supposes that economic ques-
tions and political questions are two
different things is very much mis-
taken because these things have
been so closely married with one
another in our recent political prac-
tice that it is impossible to dis
criminate between them.
And this gives me an opportunity
to allude to something that | read
very recently in an influential news
paper. 1t was an editorial in which
| must say that the editor did me
personally more than Justice. But
he saw in mean unintentional Ma
chiayelli. 1t said in effect, This is
all honest man; he honestly believes
that a protective tariff is unconsti-
tutional and if he gets chance,
being an honest man, he will up
set that unconstitutional arrange
ment That is good reasoning, but
it was entirely Inconsistent with an
other part of the editorial which
very kindly ascribed brains to me
One of the things that every we'll
informed man knows is that aDout
half the people in the United States
are democrats. AS a well informed
man, | know that they are engaged
in every kind of industry, and that
they could not unite to accomplish
economic murder ard destruction

they ought not to be changed eX-

this parenthesis applicable to my
that We were going to
begin with those particular items
in which we found special privilege
We know what those
terms are The gentlemen who en-
Joy the special privileges have been
kind enough to point them out them
selves; and what We are interested
in first of all with regard to the

We do not propose that special in

As pupils at Miss Minchin's seminary, they lend valuable assistance to Miss Cleveland and her company, adding greatly to the beauty Of the produc- tion.
 ."The Little Princess,' will be seen again this evening. and at the matinee and evening performances tomorrow. The attraction is deserving of the uni- versa1 attention of all theatre-goers and the theatre should be filled at ev- cry performance.

 performance of '~Tshe Time, the Place, , Company is being recognized at it's true worth by I1laygoers; and it's 31ng1tng melodies, pretty stage pictures
 and rollicldng humor are delighting big audiences at every performance. The manner in which these dramatic players have entered into the full
 spirit of musicaI-comedy. as we'll as
 the vocal abilities which several of
 the leading members of the company
 display, make 'AThe Time, the Place
 and the Gir1'' one of the most notable
 yet been seen; and there are very few dramatic stock companies which could
 achieve what they have done The performance seems to improve every ton, MT. Williams and others are con stantly adding telling new bits of comedy to their characterizations. The excellent work of the well-drilled chorus also comes in for its full share of praise. Miss Starr and Miss Der nard, as well as MT. Van Buren and most insistent encores on their mu- sicaI numbers; and Miss Pringle MT Kent and MT. Harrington contribute much to the general hilarity., Miss satility as we'll notable clevernesS as a comedienne, in the role of the head nurse; and MT.

 Next week the company will be seen in Alias Jimmy Valentino, probably the strongest and most popular Of all the famous dramatic successes of Paul Armstrong. An enlarged cast will be required, and all the regular members of the company will be seen in un- usually strong roles, while the produc- tion itself will be exceptionally com pete.

Not Single Member of the Company Killed or Wounded-Stray Train

The Park Theatre was packed with burlesque patrons. last night. Be tween the acts Jack shea's was crowded. The street in front of the theatre had been cleared of snow, and the house was comfortably warmed, clean, and equipped with every con venience for the comfort of patrons
 The pretty girl in the ticket office smiled and said thank you'' to every patron In fact, the patrons them selves smiled in pleasant anticipation as they entered the theatre. We said as they entered.
 The show? Oh. yes. there was a show. It was called 'aThe Merry Go Founders. It ought to be a big hit in Deep River, Haddam, Moodus, and Durham But why speak of unpleas- ant things this time of year? This is the season that we shake the moth balls from the broad mantle of char ity and throw its folds about even our worst enemies.
