The Commercial Telegraphers' Jour,
nal, December issue, publishes in de-
tail charge that officials of the West
ern Union Telegraph company have
been working to destroy the CONNER
cial Telegraphers' Union Of America.
The period in which the company was
most active in these efforts to crush
the organized workers, according to
the allegations. was in 1911 and 1912.
The expose purports to show:
Official orders from the New York
headquarters of the company to "break
up this union and spare no expense"
Spy system by which the company
attempted to keep in touch with the
plans of the union.
Discharge of hundreds Of telegra-
piers on the suspicion that they We're

and theft of union records from depot

Nobody deprecates more than the
editor of this paper, the tactics of the
Industrial Workers of the World. We
don't believe that scurrilous language
,ver PASSED for argument nor that
sabotage" or direct action as the
[. w. w. understand or preach it, has
any place in the labor program of this
country. But we understand that GER
tain conditions breed certain results
and that brute force or oppression
breeds the same kind of retaliation
The l. w. w. nor any other like or
ganization can gain much Roadway
where labor conditions are anywhere
near lust. When men are crowded be-
vond endurance, that which is most
savage and instructive in men comes
to the surface. There your l. w. w.
steps in with his hatred of the master
class" and his headstrong, impetuous
program. You have your Lawrences,
and your Pattersons, where the under
paid workers go out and industrial
anarchy reigns. At the present time
there are. said to be 100000 unem-
ployed in New York city, not the Grim
inal element that lives by its wits but
honest workers that can't find days

that enacted when the l. W. w. leader
invaded church where worshippers

pitched battle with the police. You
may condemn the l. w. w. all you
please but it makes Roadway through
rotten conditions industrially which
the people tolerate. Society cannot
escape the inevitable results of its own
attitude on any public question and
what question under Heaven means
more to any country than the one of
bread and butter? Lincoln Steffens
once said while delivering an address
that society must meet and solve the
great social and industrial questions of
the day. One of his audience asked
him if he thought the I. w. w would

for sober thought

California Preparing For immigration
Through the Canal.
With the opening of the Panama
canal the far western states expect a
stream of immigrants from Europe
and Asia. That social and economic
problems will present themselves ST
simultaneously with this alien colonial
tion is inevitable The west, however
profting by eastern experience. began
definite plans for program of distri
button and oversight long before the
isthmus was cut.
California particularly has been pre-
pairing for her future citizens. First
the legislature passed the "anti-aien
land bill" directed especially against
Japanese immigrants and intended to
protect the native American farmer
from foreign competition.
SO much controversy was excited by
this law that a second important meas
ure dealing with immigration in Cali
fOrnia has been somewhat overlooked.
This was the creation of a commission
of immigration and housing
The bill authorizing the commission
was so framed as to include an inf
mite number of powers and duties. 1t
ranges In scope from so specific a mat
ter as "investigating the relation eX-
listing between immigrant and steam
ship and railway ticket agents, hotel
runners cabmen. baggagemen and
pawubrokers' to considering and de
yising means to promote the welfare
of the state"
Roughly speaking, however, the func-
tons Of the commission may be group
ed under four heads:
To provide better industrial oppor-
tunities for arriving immigrants.
To extend educational opportunities
to both adult and minor aliens.
To secure legal protection for immi-
grants.
To obtain better housing accommo-
dations for foreigners in the city and

regarding the oyster canneries of New Jersey
because of their unsanitary condition and their
employing child labor. The President said that
each state must take care of such things for
itself.
To such as hold to this view, we recommend
careful perusal of the following words uttered
by Francis S. Peabody, mine owner of Hins-
dale, Illinois, before the United States Commits
sion on Industrial Relations:
Lack of uniformity in laws of neighboring
states affecting coal mining, made it difficult
for producer in Illinois to produce coal cheap
ly as it was produced in Ohio and Indiana for the
reason that the two last mentioned states had
not adopted laws relative to fire appliances, fire
protection, ETC., which are now strictly enforced
in the state of Illinois"
How can the various states be brought into a
uniformity of such matters if not through some
power sovereign over all the states? But this is
impossible, according to orthodox Democratic
doctrine, because that doctrine looks upon this
country not as an indivisible nation, but as a
loosely knit confederation of nations. The fed
eral government is only for treaty making and
for maintaining the army and navy. Labor laws
and social reforms such abolition of child
labor, sweat shops, etc., must be left to each of
the forty-nine different nations that compose
the United States, condition which can only
mean chronic political anarchy.
