TEST OF AMERICAN HONOR.

President Taft voiced the highest
American conscience when he declar-
ed that he would favor submitting
the canal tolls dispute to arbitration.
His utterance has the further effect
of expressing the doubt, or the divi-
sion of mind, which the country has
held upon the propriety of its own
act To England and to the world
he has impressively admitted not only
that there is a question but that the
question exists in the mind of our
own people.
In exempting it's own coastwise
vessels from tolls America has done
something which it is in doubt about.
The Hay-Pauncefote treaty provides:
''The canal shall be free and open
to the vessels of commerce and war
of all nations observing these rules,
on terms of entire equality. so there
shall be no discrimination against
any such nation, or it's citizens or sub
jects, in respect of the conditions or
charges of traffic or otherwise
With Great Britain our arbitration
treaty binds us to submit to arbitra-

THE NATIVE WORKMAN.


The native American wage Garner
is rapidly disappearing, writes w.
Jett Plauck in the Atlantic Monthly.
Along with him have also gone his
working companions of former years,
the English, Irish, Scotch, Swedes,
Norwegians and Germans. Only one
fifth of the workers in the mines and
manufacturing plants today are ma
tive Americans About one-tenth of
our wage earners are the native born
children of parents from Great Brit
ain and Ireland, Germany and the
Scandinavian countries. More than
three-fifths of our great body of in
dustrfal workers are southern or
eastern Europeans. This type of inn
migrant has had no industrial train
ing abroad He has also brought
with him low standard of living and
has been tractable and subservient.
AS result, his competition has ex-
posed the native American and older
immigrant employees to unsafe or un-
sanitary working conditions. and ha
led to or continued the imposition O.
conditions of employment which the
Americans and older immigrants
have considered unsatisfactory and
In many cases unbearable.
He has been inclined, as a rule. to
acquiesce in the demand on the part
of the employers for extra work or
longer hours. The presence of the
recent immigrant industrial worker
has also brought about a standard Of
life with which the native American
and older immigrant employees have
been unwilling, or have found It ex-
tremely difficult to compete. He has
no permanent interest in the commu-
nifty in which he lives or the indus
try in which he is employed His
main purpose is to live as cheaply as
possible. and to save as much as he
can. Everywhere improved machin-
cry and mechanical processes are ell
iminating the element of skill former
ly required of employees. and are maxi
ing 1t possible for the unskilled for
eign-born workman to enter occupa-
tions which have hitherto been be-
yond his qualifications. Unless the
native American and older British
or northern European wage Garner
| can do something TO elevate the
standards of the recent immigrants
their competition in the higher occu-
pations will be followed by as seri-
Gus results as have already attended
their invasion of the lower grades of
the industrial scale.
