MONEY MEETS MUSCLE.

John ID. Rockefeller. jr.. explained
to the congressional committee, inves-
tigating the Colorado labor war a
year ago, that an important officer of
a great corporation couldn't be ex-
pected TO know anything about the
working and living conditions Of the
workmen empIoyed-that he must
on the word Of subordinates. and must
allow them wide discretion in handling
their labor problems 1t was the same
old shield behind which to hide.
During the last few days John D.,
jr.. has been making a personal in
vestigation of the labor situation re-
lated to his Colorado interests. casting
aside that shield. He has talked and
eaten with the laborers, swung a pick
in the coal mines. inspected the
miners houses, and sought to obtain
a complete. detailed understanding OF
the human element involved in the
corporations work.
From all accounts the young bill
lionaire has been getting on famously
with the worknen, and he will prob
ably continue to get on with them. For
he has found that the men are human
beings very much like himself; and
the same astonishing fact has dawned
on the Miners. Out Of their meeting
face to face. as friendly co-workers
rather than enemies, will come better
treatment and better fortune for both
the capital and labor involved in that
industry.
This desirable contamination comes
because young John D., jr., has re-
versed his opinion. IL would come
about in a great many other indus
tries if the big capitalists would fol-
low his example. AS we have frequent
~ cOntended, what is needed in the
relations of capital and labor more
than anything else is the personal re-
latiOn between the men with the
money and the men with the muscle.
The economic problem is at bottom a
human problem. There must be per-
sonal contact TO insure the mutual
good will without which signed wage
| scales and protocols are futile The
fewer "middlemeI" there are between
capitalist and workman. the better.

SUNDAY PRIVILEGES.

The supreme court of oregon has
decided that it is unlawful to
keep open on the Sabbath day any
business establishment excepting thea
tiers, drug stores, physicians offices,
livery stables meat markets, bakeries
and undertaking establishments. Ii
might have added without disturbing
the public peace and decorum gro
Gerry stores, which are quite as neces-
sary to the comfort and convenience
of the people as the meat market.
The court held theaters necessary
as affording needed mental diversion
conducive to rest and relation. There
are a good many persons, especially
in the east who look upon a Sunday
theatrical performance as a sacrile-
gious proceeding, no matter how re-
fined il may be in character, and as
a result Of this sentiment and the
blue laws that are frequently en-
forced, theaters are closed on the
Sabbath day in practically every city
of the size of Trenton east of the AL
J legheny mountains
That the theater is conducive TO
rest and relaxation cannot be reason
ably denied. Theater- going is q form
of recreation that appeals to every
class of citizens. AS much TO the
| young as TO the old, and when a stage
performance is morally toned, there
| can be no reasonable objection to IL
whether it is viewed on sunday or any
other day in the week.

/ ing in their influence. They make d

force of the living characters that by

What the Papers Say
CUBAN GRATTTUDE.
Cleveland Plain Dealer.

-Four years ago the American con-
gress presented TO the Cuban govern
ment the after-turret ana guns of
the old battleship Maine which was
sunk in Havana harbor before the
Spanish American war. The sinking
or the ship participated the war and
brought about the freedom OF Cuba.
Cuba said she desired to erect a mon

sailors who lost their lives when the
Maine went down, and the relics were
TO be part of the monument.
Since then the relics have lain on
a Havana dock. The Cuban battle
ship Maine commissioners have now
requested that the rubbish be handed
back to the United states. or other
wise removed. For there will be no
monument. 4
The commission went so far as to
select a site, but no further Funds
were not forthcoming. The govern
ment was Indifferent. There were no
private subscriptions, for the Cuban
public cares mighty little about the
Maine. and does not like Americans.
