GET TOGETHER FOR
PERMANENT PROSPERITY.

Every man and woman engaged in
American factories. mills and mines,
whether they know English or speak
it, are naturalized or intend to be-
come citizens, have a direct interest
in maintaining industrial prosperity
When times are good, all workers
should not only be thrifty in habit and
lay up a little something for possible
rainy days, but they should do all they
can to keep the good times with US.
Simply because your language is diff
ferent from that of the foreman, over
seer, superintendent, manager or owner
Of the plant in which you earn living,
1s no excuse for misunderstanding your
own common interest in prosperity by
hating your partner in your own In
dustry or listening to and following
the gospel of dissensiOn and violence
which selfish agitatOrs so often preach.
Do not blindly follow the man who
tells you how hard your lot is. Often
he is doing 80 untruthfully and for the
purpose of getting you to contribute
membership money for his own support
IN idleness. Agitators get rich by prey
ing on the men In American industry,
whom they urge into unlawful or harm
ful acts by misrepresenting conditions
or holding out foolish and false prom
iBes Of better things If they follow
their orders. You know conditions
yourself, and you know or ought to
know that the man or men whom the
Rgitator who pictures your employer as
ON inhuman driving machine is actual
H a partner with you, interested In
having the plant or industry successful.
The more successful your plant or
industry becomes, the more room for
you to grow with 1t there will be. 1t
should be your feeling, then, that you
viii not do as little as you may find it
convenient to do, but to do Just as
much as you possibly can do, and then
reasonably expect to share in the re-
wards that always come to the efficient
worker.
Do not be q clock watcher in the fac
tory. Those who wait for hours to
strike or whistles to blow and soldier"
at the bench, machine or in the Office,
never get ahead in the ranks Of in
dustry. They never get any more pay
because they are not worth any more,
and often are worth less than they get.
Remember the old adage that a man
who never does any more or as much
as he gets paid for, never gets paid
for any more than he dOes.-IndWStriG

PUTTING BUSINESS RIGHT
WITH THE PUBLIC.

A few years ago some big Industrial
organizations and certain railroads en-
ployed business tactics which, accord.
ing to the popular idea, would make
the financial adventures of PiZarro.
Morgan or Captain Kidd look as anna.
teurish as the verbal exploits Of Bobby
Make-BelieVe.
All are more or less acquainted with
the details. We will concede that there
were some glaring abuses, but the pub
lie when it came to apply remedy ig-
nored the fact that these were peculiar
to comparatively few institutions and
instead of tackling the trouble where
it lay furiOusly assailed everything
classifable as business-the trust mag
nate the independent manufacturer
ready and anxious to obey the law, the
small retailer, a law abiding and use
full citizen-the innocent and the guilty
suffering alike. Seemingly the law was
invoked not to regulate, but to perse-
cute.
There could be but one result. Busi.
ness was demoralized, and the whole
country has felt the evil effects. Now
the public is beginning to realize it's
error and in a rather grudging way is
making some concessions.
Business is being permitted to speak
for itself, and movement has been in.
stituted by the leading business men
Of the country under the title of the
National Industrial Conservation Move,
ment for the purpose of repairing the
damage that has been done. Nothing
revolutionary is contemplated. The
plan is simply to educate the public by
taking it into the business mans conf
dence. Meetings will be held in vari-
Gus trade and industrial centers. All
classes of citizens will be invited. The
purpose of these meetings is to give the
public new and correct viewpoint as
to the effects of drastic legislation and
restriction of business on the prosper
ity Of the country. Every effort will
be made to give the public clear view
of the problems and difficulties which
beset business.
Special favors are not sought through
these meetings, only fair play. 1t is
believed that once the citizen graspS
the situation his whole attitude toward
business will change and that he will
readily cooperate toward bringing
about better conditions.
Commercial and other civic organiza-
tions and the local press are already
showing great interest in this move
ment, and it is reasonable to believe
that much good will come from it

Common Capitalists.

Every man or woman who possesses
a dollar or owns a set of tools is a
capitalist People generally make the
mistake Of thinking that the only form
of capital in existence is the national
currency-the dollar, franc, ruble
mark, lire or pound sterling. Yet every
body knows that many a successful
business mans only original capital
was brains. knowledge. ability. deter
mination or ingenuity. 1t would be
well for more people to recognize this
ruism before abetting, either by ac
ton or attitude. ceaseless efforts on the
part of some political or other self
seekers, to hobble business men and in
dustrial development. Such is the spirit
of industrial patriotism which is need
ed in America. Industrial COnSerUG-

The lives of practically all men famous

twenty-five years will prove to you the

Hartman and Hill to railroads, Edison

w greatest need was equitable distribution of
the tax burden The little fellows have paid dispropor

would be required to pay under just leveng for
taxation purposes That will always be matter for local
determination until the state is given power than
the extension of moral infuenceand that may never
come in view of widespread hostility to state informed

more fairly distribute tax paying It is not desired that
any interest be mulced because large but that every
small interest be protected because it is weak and cannot
