as little as possible and sell as much
as they can 1t is supreme folly to-
imagine that they will or can do any
thing else. The notion that their ne
cessities will compel them to continue
to buy prodigiously from us is found
ed upon vain hope Such necessities,
il they exist, will be but temporary
They would not go on pouring out
money to us if they could, and they
could not if they would,
On the contrary. their policy will be
one of rigid economy within and of
pushing sales to the utmost without.
The capture of the greatest cash mar
ket in the world will be their special
aim. Nowhere else than here can the
gold they will so badly need be ac-
quired with afcility. That the United
States will be the dumping ground
for the surplus products of all the
fighting nations can not be reasonably
questioned. The reelection of Wood
row Wilson would mean four more
years with the bars down, four more
years with the gates open for the en-
try of European cheap labor products
in competition with ours. Who can
imagine a continuation of prosperity
under such conditions? Gold would
pour out of this country in continu-
Gus stream. Factories throughout the
land would close down, unable to
compete with the foreign manufactur-
ers. Labor would be thrown out of
employment prices of farm products
would go down to improbable figures,
and business of all kinds would suf-
fer to the extreme The only possible
preventive of such a salamitous con-
summation is tariff that will protect
us from the flood of Europe, and the
only way to establish such protection
is by the restoration of a republican
government which makes protection
its fundamental principle.

SYMPATHETIC STRIKES.
portland Oregonian.)

|
Indefensible as it is, the sympathetic
strike has not been stamped out, as
is shown by the situation in New York,
land as has been shown elsewhere in
! the past. The sympathetic strike Is
form of sabotage. Its central, con-
trolling idea is to make as much
trouble, of all kinds, as possible. 1t
or of contractual relations, or of SOL
Cmn promises. 1t Is unbecoming the
free people of democracy and anti
social to the last degree.
! Much of our civil law is based on
the keeping of contracts, or promises,
between men and groups of men in
order to insure stability and avoid in
Gustrial chaos. Contracts are founded
on the principle at the outset that 1t
takes two to make a bargain, and that
when two have made that bargain it
should, if not incompatible with the
larger public interest be kept Other
wise bargaining would have no value
and bargains would not be made. The
man whose word is as good as his
bond" always has commanded respect
The same thing ought to be true
and it often is true, despite the ex-
ceptions that are noted on occasions
like the present-of the bargains en-
tered into by groups of men. 1t is
necessary that it should be so, if busi-
ness is to prosper. The employer who
has treated his men with essential JUS
tice has a right to know that when in
good faith he has entered into other
contracts, relying on the sacredness of
the bond. he will be able to fulfill
them. We have not come to a pass
when the just shall be punished for
the omissions or commission of the
unjust, even conceding that the cause
for which sympathey is sought to be
expressed is right.
Some labor unions recognize this
principle fully. An officer of the In
ternational Typographical union, in
speaking of the situation in New York,
said recently: ''The International Ty-
biographical union does not believe In
sympathetic strikes and typographical
union members in New York can not
strike" Other unions take the same
enlightened position, but not all of
them. Yet there is no doubt that
among the members of those unions
that are so breaking their relations
with employers against whom they
have no grievance there are many
men who would not break personal
rromise or violate pledge. These
men are not doing labor a real service.
They are delaying the day of univer-
sal mutual trust and of the best form
of collective bargaining. They ought
to realize that they can not complain
Of the broken promises of others If
they do not keep their own.

LABOR MAY FIND EIGHT HOUR
LAW A GOLD BRICK.

The legislation which Mr.. Wilson
has so wrongly called the eight hour
a. day" bill will undoubtedly have to
run the gauntlet of the courts before it
is established even as a basic" prin-
cipal in railroad employment. If the
measure is held to be constitutional,
there yet win remain several questions
regarding its operation.
Forinstance there is nothing in the
law to prevent the railroads from
working their men ten, twelve, even
sixteen hours a day, providing the
ray is reckoned upon the basic" eight
hour scale, ana in that case the runs
of the men will be redistrbuted with
the probable result that some train
men will find themselves without work
for any number of hours a day.
Moreover if the eight hour scale is
TO be basic" the railroads may con-
tend with no little force that if a man
works less than eight hours he shall
be paid for the time pro rata accord
ing to the basic" scale.
There are many trainmen now rum
ming on the mileage basis who com
plete their days work in less than
eight hours but who receive a full
days wage. Upon the "basic" prin-
ciple, these men could be required to
run the additional time to make up
the eight hours or to have their pay
reduced accordingly.
Legislation without investigation Of
ten results in some very interesting
by products-and it may be that labor
has received a gold brick

directed at him on account of his vote
for the Underwood bill. The senator

The zinc and lead schedules were
framed for the purpose Of raising rev.

cents per pound. This was not an
