damages for his injury The superin-

is not his employer. Who is his en-

Of directors did not tell the emplOye

president of the corporation did not
tell him to use that piece Of machinery.

that theory that a man can never get

latiOnships that used to exist between

Strike Breakers
Moral suasion, as applied to strike,
breakers, and the attitude of the courts
toward peaceful picketing, were prob
ably in the presidents mind when he
wrote:
Similarly. the treatment Of labor by
the great corporations is not what il
was in JeffersOn's time. Whenever
bodies Of men employ bodies of men, il
ceases to be a private relationship. So
that when courts hold that working
men cannot peaceably d1SSuade other
WOrkingmen fro mtaking employment,
as was held in a notable case in New
Jersey, they simply show that their
minds and understandings are linger-
ing in an age which has passed away"
The social unrest and its terrible
possibilities he well illustrated in this
para graph:
Don't you know that some man with
eloquent tongue without conscience,
who did not care for the nation, could
put this whole country into a flame?
Don't you know that this country from
one end to the other believes that some
thing is WrOng2 What an opportunity
il would be for some man without con
science to spring up and say: This is
the way Follow mer-and lead in
paths Of destruction"
The president thus asserts that he
understands the labor question.
DO our masters OF industry speak in
the spirit and interest even of those
whom they employ When men ask
me what L think OF the labor question
and labOring men, I feel that I am be-
ing asked what I know about the vast
majority Of the people, and I feel as If
I were being asked to separate myself.

Wage Farmers Friend.
That the wage-earner will have an
advocate in the white house is init
mated in the following assertion:
Il tell you the men I am interested
in are the men who, under the con-

the typographical Journal. Even now,

IN this new age we find, for in

the relations Of employer ana empIOye
are in many respects wholly anUQuated
and impossible. They were framed for
another age. which nobody now living
remembers, which is, indeed, so remote
from our life that it would be difficult
for many Of US to understand it If it
were described to Us. The employer

be devised for their protection for their
compensation when injured, for their

Capital and Labor.
There is something very new and
very big and very complex about these
new relations Of capital and labor. A
new economic society has sprung up
and we must effect a new set Of ad-
justments We must not pit power
against weakness. The employer is

not an Individual but powerful

After commenting on the impossible

Our laws still deal with US on the
basis Of the old system. The law is
still living in the dead past which we
have left behind This is evident, for
instance, with regard to the matter OF
employers liability for Workingmen's
injuries. Suppose that a superinten-

There seems to be a disposition on
the part of certain members of the
legislature to mix Governor Colquitt
up with national politics and place him
in bad light because of that part of
his message on the growing of sugar.
They would have it appear that he re-
fiected on the Wilson administration,
because, he stated the sugar producers
would be injured by the new tariff bill.
The Eagle cannot see it that way. 1t
is a plain business proposition. The
State own number of sugar farms
and Governor Colquitt has sense
enough to know that if the State lost
money raising sugar under a protec-
tive tariff, it would lose still more I'M
der free sugar" For this reason he
so stated in his message and recon-
mended the sale of the States sugar
farms.

Mexico are daily growing worse. and
it looks like something will have to

little or no protection, either as TO
person or property. They are made TO
suffer all manner of outrages; some

prison and many have had their prop

the same thing. Such outrages cannot
