OVERLAPPING CALAMITY

The calamity game has been
oyerplayed. 1t has been ov~erplayed
by the railroads. 1t has been over-
played by Wall street. 1T has been
overplayed by the banks. 1t has
been overplayed by big business
in general. Evidence is multiply
ing that the country is tired of it,
and that it is Disguised with the
methods of acceleration that have
been used to exploit it.
The American people are not
foals. They are not disposed to
cut off their noses to spite their
faces. They are not given to the
burning down the barn in order
to get rid of the rats. A few weeks
ago there was a strongly increasing
sentiment that the government was
pressing too hard upon business,
and that a breathing spell was de-
sirable. Public opinion in ge isial
favored the railroads in their plea
for a 5 per cent increase in freight
rates. 1t favored the postponement
of the antitrust bills until the
short session of Congress. There
was general sympathy with the
great corporations in their petition
for a truce. That sympathy has
been largely dissipated.
We doubt if there was any Ion
spiracy" such as the President sus-
pected: but there was certainly
too much team work in the ex.
ploitations of calamity-too many
mimeograped letters, too many
form kilograms, too many protests
framed in identical language, too
much proof that one directing mind
had instigated the whole campaign
too much evidence of q concerted
effort to bluff the President, the
Congress and the country.
Such methods are likely to defeat
themselves, and in this case the
defeat is decisive.
Instead IF hating antitrust leg
islation the campaign of calamity
has made it certain that Congress
will pass all of the administrations
measures before it adjourns. In
cidentally, the country remembers
how bitterly the organized banking
interest opposed the new banking
and currency bill and how unani.
mously tLey approved of it becom-
ing a law. 1t is rapidly coming to
the conclusion chat business has
been using the same kind Of bull
DOING tactics to which banking
resorted.
Calamity may have looked like a
good weapon to terrify the coun-
try, but it has turned out to be a
boomerang.-New York World.

CANNERY COMPANY
 IN FALSE LIGHT

The Petersburg Progressive says the story of the Filipinos that had been employed in the cannery of the Pacific Coast 6 Norway Packing company, of Petersburg, who were in Seattle desti' ute because they had not received as much pay as they had been promised does the cannery and the Chinese con tractor who put up the compauy's pack an injustice. Its story is that the men were hired by a Japanese acting for the Chinaman who was unable to get a sufficient number of his own cannery- men. and that the Jap made promises that could not be fulfilled without the knowledge of the company or the con tractor. Then the men got, to drink ing and gambling and lost what wages they actually earned.
