Heretofore much fault has been

1t has been the custom TO take the
two or three ranking members OF the
committee originally dealing with the
subject of legislation i'm controversy
for conferences. regardless of their
sympathy or opposition to the form
in which a bill has passed the Senate.
1t will noj be that way in the tu-
turc. Hereafter conference commit
tees will be selected by the democra-
tic majority of the committee having
charge OF the legislation in ques-
ton. and this means that the confer

is one OF the most significant steps
in the movement for Thoroughly pro-

another step that will mean a great

Finally, the rule of popular CON

in the adoption OF the rule which
provides that hereafter the steering

As announced, we expected to get
into our fine new building before this
time. But, we will be delayed another
week on account of carpenters and
decorators not being able to get the
building ready. 1t will take therefore
nearly two weeks longer before We
shall move. But whenever we do
open the doors of our new establish
ment on Broadway we'll faithfully
promise to present to our many
friends and patrons the most com
plete stock of fine pianos ever shown
on Grays HarbOr.
In the meantime our closing-out
sale at the old stand at 119 E. Her
on street continues. We're not ask
ing to make any profit now. In fact
many lines are being closed out be-
low cost. We will positively not
move a single instrument to our new
establishment on Broadway. Whether
you want good piano for $167 or a
most superb grand piano or player
piano, such as usually sell from $500
to $1,000 and more, we promise the
greatest money-saving opportunity
ever presented.

Capital and Labor.

The announcement that the United
States Steel corporation will shortly
increase the wages of 10000 employees
without any demand on their part is
a healthy sign of the times. 1t is an.
other proof that the corporations of
the country are not unmindful of their
responsibilities toward labor. and that
when the men give their employers a
chance to balance the books of pros.
perity they will be rewarded, says an
exchange.
Not long ago it was the custom
among the street railway employees
Of Philadelphia to strike every now
and then for higher wages. There was
% many strikes, and the public was
always SO dissatisfied with the service
that the corporation in control of the
street railway lines never had a chance
to get ahead. The stockholders never
received any dividends. and the cor
poration was on the verge of disaster
A new management was installed,
with sufficient capital to finance i'm
prOvements. The conditions on which
the capital was invested was that an
agreement be entered into by the men
to accept % per cent. of the gross re-
ceipts for wages. AS the receipts grew
the wages were to be increased ac-
cordingly. The men agreed. They
are now being paid higher wages than
any other street railway men. They
are satisfied, the public is satisfied and
the corporation itself is beginning to
earn little money.
The trouble with many workingmen
is that they are unwilling to give their
employers chance to make up their
past losses when prosperity arrives.
They want part of the prosperity right
away, forgetting the long siege of fl
nancing that had to be undergone by
their employers. The steel corporation
employees were patient, and without
striking are now to be rewarded. In
Chicago the employees of the Pullman
company likewise are to receive in
creases from to IL per cent. Young
Vincent Astor learned that one of the
Oldest employees on his estate was leav-
ing to take position at higher wages
on another estate, and he raised the
wages of all his employees one-third.
There is no doubt that capital is be-
coming more liberal to labor. Bust
ness men are realizing that they can
not be successful without faithful EN-.
ployes. The war between capital and
labor, apparently, is adjusting itself by
the simple method of patience and a
better understanding on both Sides

Freedom Of the Press

When the people of Idaho remove
from their highest judicial bench the
two judges who, overruling their as
sociate, have made the court of three
judges hold that judicial decisions are
too sacred for public criticism, they
will deserve the grateful appreciation
of the democracy of the whole coun.
try.
There is a limited sense in which
courts should be free from newspaper
or mass-meeting criticism. While
judges are celebrating upon a case,
that case should not be discussed in
newspapers or on public rostrums, lest
the judge or judges prove weak
enough to be improperly influenced
thereby. But insofar as such discus
sion may be regarded as an offense,
it should be left to a grand jury
and not to the criticised judges. A
Judge who is weak enough to be i'm
properly influenced by public criticism
or clamor, is too weak to be trusted
with arbitrary power for the redress
of his own grievances. In all prob
ability the best security against i'm
proper public discussion of cases on
trial, would be general incubation
of standards of public decency rather
than criminal prosecution, whether by
grand juries through indictment or
by offended judges through arbitrary
proceedings for contempt But all
those considerations disappear when a
decision has been made.
Even the weakest Judge is beyond
danger of being improperly influence
ed in cases after he has decided it.
To tolerate his resorting to contempt
proceedings before himself for the
criticism of a decision he has made,
is to invest him with arbitrary powers
of revenge. Criticism of decision
after it is made, is not an interference
with the administration of justice. 1t
is either just, in which case there
should be no punishment at all; OF
it is an expression of opinion in good
faith, in which case, be it just or not,
its free expression is one of the neces-
stiles of free press and free speech;
or 1t is libel on the Judge as man,
in which case it's punishment should
be In due course of legal procedure.
Never should any official, legislator or
executive or judge, be permitted to
sit in judgment for the redress of his
own injuries, or the satisfaction of
his own anger.

A Lumber Trust Quashed

There will be no particular mourn
ing among the sawmill men of this
state over the success of the govern
ment in its suits against the combina.
tons of retail lumber dealers in va
rious parts of the country. A perman.
ent injunction has already been issu
ed against the Eastern Retail Lumber
Dealers Association, and the case
against the Northwestern Lumber
Dealers Association is proceeding rap
Idly at Chicago with indications point
ing to a similar end to that suit.
These retail associations have been
in position to hold up the manufac-
turer precisely to the same extent
that they have held up the consumer.
In fact. one Of their purposes has been
to limit the market of the manufac-
turer and to monopolize to themselves
the handling of his product within
their territory. They have denied to
the manufacturers the right to sell
lumber to parties outside of the or
ganization and have been able to en-
force their rules to that end by re-
fusing to buy further from any manu-
facturer who elected to sell to the
independent dealers. A combination
sufficiently strong to successfully die.
tate to the manufacturers where and
to whom they may sell their products
is strong enough to decide also, when
it becomes necessary, the price at
which the manufacturers must sell,
IL they desire access to the territory
controlled by the combination.

tons If effected successfully, will at

Hood, E. A. Morck, W. C. Mumaw,
Geo. J. Wolff, ]. B. Benson. Arthur
Davies and Secretary Bryan spoke,
urging vigorous campaign for la
Dor employing industries, all of which
met with hearty approval, the sug-
gestions of the secretary which are
printed in another column, giving the
keynote.
J. A. Hood brought up the plan
suggested by him nearly two years
ago, which provides for raising funu
of $4,000 with which to engage the
services of an expert salesman. whose
duty it will be to visit in person such
firms as are thinking of establishing
manufacturing plants on the Coast,
loaded with all possible data that
could be asked for by the prospect
concerning the advantages of Aber-
deem for his line of trade. This sum,
Mr. Hood estimates, would keep such
man on the road for two years.
The fund is to be raised by sub
scription, in the form of notes, to be
deposited, and drawn upon as the
money is required, the notes to draw
interest only upno such sums as are
drawn from the bank.
After Mr.. McKenna had told that
city of Eureka, California, without
rail connection and with an indiffer
ent harbor, had raised $4,000 for
this purpose, the Hood proposition
had the house captured and Mr.
Hood was appointed a committee to
secure the fund, he to chose such ad
ditional members of the committee
as he desired.

At the adjournment of the meeting
the new trustees met to elect presi-
dent, vice president, secretary and
treasurer, as required by the bylaws.
The hour was late, and the choice
of a president was recognized as hav
ing too important bearing upon the
success of the Chamber to be hurried,
so it was decided to adjourn with
out a choice until next Monday night,
at o'clock, when they will meet in
the Office of the Chamber.

THE SHIP OF STATE.


Our system of government is
very complex. 1t may be COM
pared to colossal engine con-
tanning lInumerable wheels with
in wheels. Each wheel works in
it's own orbit, like the planetary
system. If the great federal
wheel gets out Of order the
smaller wheels are not much de-
ranged, but keep ON moving till
the big machine is repaired. We
are all familiar with the men,
Orable Titanic disaster, which re-
suited in the loss of so many
precious lives, as we'll as the
peerless vessel itself. Had all
the compartments of that steam
ship been watertight the loss Of
life would have been avoided.
Now, our government is often
called a ship of state. This great
ship Of state is divided into for
ty-eight minor states. Each Of
these states may be said to be
waterproof in the sense that the
engulfing of one would not in
volve the sinking of the others.
California, for example. might
be overwhelmed by the waters Of
political revolution without
disturbing the neighboring states
of Washington, Nevada and Ari-
IONA. If our states were mere
provinces or territories. without
autonomy and sovereignty. like
other republics less favored than
ours. we would enjoy less sta
bility and less hope Of enduring
freedom than we now possess.
The safety and permanence,
therefore. Of our republic largely
depend on the autonomy Of the
several states. without the dan
ger of absorption by the general
government. Should our govern
ment and legislators ever become
the subservient creatures Of the
federal government they would
be mere puppets. subject to the
will Of the chief executive. They
would cease to be waterproof
and would share the fate Of the
Titanic.-Cardinal Gibbons.
