FEDERAL INDUSTRIAL
COMMISSION
BY Peter Radford.

The recent investigation of the
United States Commission of Indus
trial Relations brought together the
extremes of society and has given the
public an opportunity to view the rep
resentatives of distinct classes, side
by side, and to study their views in
parallel columns.
Capital and labor have always been
glaring at each other over CULTS of
misunderstanding and if the Federal
Industrial Commission attempts to
bridge the chasm, it will render the
public distinct service.
The farmer has been sitting on the
fence watching capital and labor fight
for many years and incidentally furn-
ishing the sinews of war and it is
quite gratifying to find them talking
with, instead of about, each other.
When honest men smile and look into
each others souls, it always makes
the world better and far more salts
factory to the farmer, who in the end,
bears the burden of conflict, than
resolutions, speeches or pamphlets
containing charges and counter
charges.
The love for justice makes the
whole world kin. Understanding is an
arbiter far more powerful than the
mandates of government, for there is
no authority quite so commanding as
an honest conscience; there is no de-
cree quite so binding as that Of the
Supreme Court of Common Sensa and |
no sheriff can keep the peace quire SO
perfect as Understanding.
We suppose the time will never
come when capital and labor will not !
be occasionally blinded by the light |
ming flashes of ayarice or frightened 1
by the thunder peels Of discomfort.
But Understandings is q Prince Of
Peace that ever holds out the olive
branch to men who want to do right. I
A mans income is always a sacred
thing for in it are the hope, ambition
and opportunity of himself, and fam
ly, but there is nothing in human
heart quite so divine as Justice and
Understanding is its handmaidep-

A. c. Barth began MS duties this
morning as clerk in the office of State
Superintendent Of Banks 8. G. Sargent
in place of Fritz Slade, who has been
appointed state bank examiner. Mr..
Slaie also began his new duties about
which 80 much has been said and de.

that Mr.. Martin is democrat and the
governor and State Treasurer Kay re-
fused to support democrat for the

by Mr. SARGENT and the appointment
ratified by the board. Then the charge
arose that Slade was an English sub.

citizen of the United States The word
competent" was then injected into
the controversy and considerable space
was used in explanations.
In recent statement issued, Mr.
Sargent ays;
"I regret exceedingly the circum
