TO PROTECT ITSELF
Labor Forced Into Politics From the Injustice
Heaped Upon Wage Earners
(By Marcus Day.)

Real compulsory arbitration, such
as in operation in New Zealand, was
the greatest step taken toward COM
plete emancipation of labor from cap
italistic tyranny. The reason back Of
all Others for outlawing the strike,
from the labor point of view, is that
it forces labor into politics to protect
itself from injustice. AS long as or
ganized labor holds to the view that
the strike is really a potent weapon
in any contest with greedy capital it
handicaps itself with cap and ball ar
tillery against 42-centimeter action of
the capitalist. Compulsoury arbitra-
ton carries with it investigation and
when once President Wilson submits
his measure for consideration by con-
gress the open hostility of the most
oppressive employers will do much
to allay organized labor's hostility.
The reason for the present distrust
of compulsory arbitration by promi-
nent labor leaders is not that they be-
lieve peaceful settlement undesirable,
but that labor would not receive

Constructive Legislation Needed
(By Marcus Day.)

AS Governor Alexander's principal
issue was lower taxation and business
efficiency in executive administration
it will only be natural that his parti-
san enemies attempt to force extrava-
gance in order that they can have a
consistent campaign cry in 1918. This
should not lead Democrats into an
attitude of niggardliness toward ap-
preparations that are really necessary.
Our present and near future demands
call for real craftsmanship in state
affairs, particularly in regard to taxa
ton. Direct legislation must be made
effective in order taht Democrats keep
their party pledges on the one hand,
and that the larger problems of state
government can be taken up under
popular law-making. The state has
enormous financial strength for de-
velopment if it but remove outworn
and decadent restrictions. Until we

little children of the workers used to
get the meager education allowed to
them, now company of South Caro-

there because the children have been
put out With almost incredible mean
ness, these wealthy, powerful and cul-
tured gentlemen of Boston closed the

If their fathers, mothers, and the old
er boy and girl wage earners would

ers, if they would insist on their Amer
lean right of organization, then the
Wellington-Sears corporation would
hit them through the little children,
who could not yet be used to make
wealth for their owners in the millsl
This almost incredible act of mean
ness was possible, because the Well
lington-Sears corporation owned the
land on which the school houses stand
as the homes and all the land of the
two villages. And it believes that
owning the homes, the schools and all
the usual public places, it owned the
people and the spirits of the people,
as well as their bodies.

The dance committee reported
splendid success with reference to the
last affair and it was decided to hold
another dance under the auspices of
the council either right before or right
after Washington's birthday, or as
near as practical to February n, 1917.
The same dance committee having the

for the coming entertainment.
Attendance was as usual at the We'd

been increased five and ten per cent
(making Is per cent in all) since the
strike was instituted on August 1st.
And now new increase of 10 per
cent has either been granted or will
be granted soon.
In all the other mills in the An
