Labor and Capital Conspiracy

If the West Coast Lumber Manu-
facturers association fails to take the
advantage the Panama Exposition af-
fords to remove the boycott maintain
ed by San Francisco labor unions and
planning mill owners on finished fir
lumber, they will overlook such an
opportunity as may never come again.
The failure of the association, at
its meeting last week, to pronounce
in favor of Withholding all appropria-
tions by the state for the exposition
pending the lifting of the boycott was
mistake. The existing condition is
that of economic war, and such re-
prisal would be fully justified. 1t is
a conspiracy between planning mills
and their employees in San Francisco
to enable one to make larger profits
and the other to receive higher wages,
all at the expense of the lumber con-
sumner in that city, and the saw mill
operators and employees in Washing
ton and Oregon.
In compelling the shipment of rough
instead of finished lumber to San
Francisco, this conspiracy robs the
community in which the lumber was
sawed of a labor cost of from Is cents
to $1.0O per M feet, and adds at least
double that sum to the lumber cost in
that city. The reason given by p.
J. Mccarthy, of the Building Trades
Council in the Bay City, that the cause
of this discrimination is the fact that
the mills of Washington and Ore
gon were not unionized, is the very
flimsiest subterfuge, since the rough
lumber shipped from the same mills
is used every day by the union car
penters under Boss Mccarthy.
II the lumberman, possibly for
some unknown trade reason, hesitate
to take the drastic course of with
holding all fair appropriations, the leg
islature should take the initiative in
the matter. An ultimatum in the
form of a joint resolution from both
houses to that effect would, the Her
aid believes, accomplish the desired
result.

Dollar Diplomacy.

Commercial diplomacy leads straight
to big armies and navies, straight to
Misunderstanding and quarrels. and
straight to war. In fact, what We
know as dollar diplomacy has nc
virtue over any other diplomacy ex-
cept that 1t is backed by the military
forces Of the nation. 1t is private
business intrenched in the State De-
partment, making use Of public pow.
ers, demanding flexible tariffs and
able at any time to support it's claims
with the peoples arms. In Mexico
it has lead to the threat of interven-
ton twice within two years. In Near
aqua it recently made us invaders
and fighters. In the Dominican Re-
public it has put us in armed posses
sion of the government as a collec-
ton agent. In Honduras it is be-
hind Wall street bankers who have
money to lend if We will compel pay
ment. In China it places US in the at
titude of forcing a loan upon a strug-
Cling republic on conditions that are
humiliating. In Cuba and Panama it
causes us to picket polling places
with our troops. Everywhere in Latin
America it has awakened suspicion
among peoples who should be our
friends. Our great and growing for
eign commerce Is not the result Of
such methods. Before there was a
Knox in the State Department We
had a Jefferson, Madison, a Mon.
roe, an Adams, Webster, a Seward,
a Fish, Bayard, and many others
In their day Americans were every.
where In trade wisely fostered and
guarded, but the United States gov
eminent was not acting as a bill col
lector for them. 1t remained for Phil.

ter in our Ministry of Foreign Affairs
and to boast at frequent intervals Of
his increased sales-New York

One could continue such illustra-
tons ad infinitum, and that courts
differ should occasion no surprise.
Members Of the judiciary are as hui
man as the members of the executive
or legislative branches of government.
the surprise is that their usurpation
of power should not only be tamely
submitted to, but that some people
appear to like it to an extent that if
continued will necessitate provision
for halo to accompany the gown on
the bench.

doubt that If the amendment proposed

beach they saw the life savers try
five times to launch surf boat. When
the efforts were seen to be futile the
captain and his companions despaired
of being saved. This hopelessness
was intensified when Pilmos let the
life line which shot across the vessel
get away from his benumbed hands.
Temporarily insane from the suffer-
ing caused by the exposure, Pilmos
jumped overheard and was lost.

About midnight the mast to which

A Hint From New Jersey

Perhaps those who complain be-
cause the president-elect announces
no definite policy will find enough in
the New Jersey antitrust bills to hold
their attention temporarily. The mea-
sures are seven in number and are
said to have Governor Wilson's APP
prevail, which at Trenton means a
great deal.
The purpose is to prohibit and to
punish monopolies of every descrip-
ton. To this end the proposed laws
forbid combinations, secret or other
wise, to limit production, to stifle
competition or to fix prices. All stocks
must represent money or property.
No dead horses and no anticipated pro.
fits be capitalized. When one issue
of stock replaces another the amount
must be the same. One corporation
shall not buy into another to estab-
lish a monopoly or to restrain trade.
In the case of existing holding COM
panies the voting of securities unlaw-
fully held is prohibited. Mergers are
to be permitted only on the approval
of the utilities commission, and dis
ordinations in prices or otherwise are
prohibited.
As stated, seven bills seem to have
been necessary to cover all this ground
but one of the seven has bearing
upon all of the others. 1t makes the
officers and directors of every corpor-
alton personally responsible for viola
tions of the laws. 1t fixes the penalty
at Imprisonment for not more than
three years or a fine of not more
than $1,000. 1t Is an anti-monopoly
an antitrust, an anti-robbery PROPOSE.

Proqressives to Advise

Governor Wilson's address to the
New Jersey electors was brief but it
was to the point. He said that only
PROGRESSIVES would be summon,
ed by him as advisers because they
only were in harmony with the cause
to which he is committed. The presi-
dent-elect is entirely right-he could
not consistently say anthing else. He
has a right to assume that the reac.
tionaries are HONEST and that an
honest reactionary would cOnscient
iously advise AGAINST progressive
measures. Why should he ask ad-
vice which he must necessarily re-
ject? Reactionary democrats who
supported the ticket are eligible to
other important positions but they are
not available as advisors.

Mexico City, Nov. 4.-President
Huerta must resign the presidency OF
Mexico without loss of time and
must not leave as his successor Cen
eral Aureliano Banquet, his minister
of war, or any other member of his Of
ficial family or Of the unofficial co.
terie whom he might be expected to
control.
The ultimatum from Washington
was conveyed to President Huerta
through his private secretary, Senior
Rabago. by Nelson O'Shaughnessey,
the American charge d'affaires, act
Ing under instructions from the State
Department. Senior Rabago presented
the memorandum to his chief late
Sunday but up to last evening Presi-
dent Huerta had returned no answer.
and, as far as could be, learned, had
guarded Its contents from almost all
his official and intimate counsellors.
Those who learned of the Washing.
ton note regarded General Huerta's po-
sition one In which he will be forced
to give one of two answers-refusal
point-blank to comply with the de-
mand, possibly going SO far as to hand
the diplomatic representative his pass
ports, or the elimination of himself
officially.
Those most intimate with the Presi.
dent insist that the latter course will
no be taken, for many reasons, chief
among which is that such action would
be tantamount to submission to the
rebels.
Official Mexico is no longer liz
doubt that the Washington administra-
tion favors the rebel cause. and is con.
vinced that this is the means adopted
by President Wilson and Secretary
Bryan to assist Carranza to win.
General Huerta summoned to the
national palace the diplomatic corps.
but for. what purposes was not re.
vealed.
