"And inasmuch as most good
things are produced by labor, II
follows that all such things of
right belong to those whose labor
has produced them. But il has SO
Happened in all ages of the world
that some have labored and 9TH
crs have without labor enjoyed
large portion of the fruits. This
il wrong and should not continpe.
To secure to each laborer the
whole product of his labor or as
nearly as possible, is worthy OBJ
ject of any good government"
Next said Chairman Walsh to
Lincoln's son: I'VE may assume
I suppose that there has never
been time in the history of this
company when there was any
financial reason why a comfort
able living wage should not be
laid to it's employees"
And Lincoln's son-replied: 81
hope not, SIR"
Do you recollect the debate of
Abraham Lincoln and Judge
Douglas at Alton, ILL.,, in October,
1858, when the great Lincoln
said:
'That is the real issue which
will continue i'm this country
when these poor tongues of Judge
Douglas and myself shall be silent.
1t is the eternal struggle between
these two principles - RIGHT
AND WRONG-throughout the
world. The one is the common
right Of humanity and the other
the divine right Of kings. II is
the same spirit that says: "You
toll and work and earn bread,
and Ill eat it, No matter i'm
what form il comes, II is the same
tyrannicaI principle"
Again said Chairman Walsh II
rs your company opposed to the
organization of unions?"
To which Lincoln answered
well, Mr.. Chairman, l do not
think any administration likes to
deal with unions. We have never
opposed, so fitr as l know, the
formation OF union among our
employees, but our company In
sists on its right to hire and dis
charge its employees"
Abraham Lincoln ON Strikes.
In a speech at New Haven In
March, 1860, Abraham Lincoln
said:
~ an, glad to see that a System
of labor prevails in New England
under which laborcrs can strike
when they want 20. where they
