Trust Company building at Ninth and
Market streets ills feet and give the
strip Of land 10 the city, provided the
city would grant him use Of the space
beneath the sidewalk for vaults for
ever tax free. Decision In the ques-
tlOn was put over for one week.
Mayor William G. Taylor, vice-presl-
dent OF the trust company; George N.
Davis, assistant city solicitor, and An
drew L. Johnson, Street and Sewer
Commissioner, laid the question be-
fore Council. Disclaiming any financial
interest in the trust company person
ally, the mayor said he believed the
strip OF land i4k feet by y feet Z
inches which Mr.. dupont would do
nate for street purposes was worte
about $4,000, and that II utilized for
the thirteen-stOry bank and office build
ing instead of for street widening,
would bring in about $1,000 a year a
story, or $4,000 a year income in all.
Commissioner johnson said the new

 would return to Chile and report to his fellow exploiters of the boon he found in America. Cheap labor,
 low wages a low standard of living and no organization of the working class constitute boon wherever they are found, and fill the native and foreign capitalist with the same sense
 of profound satisfaction. MT Gug-

 good Chilean or a good German any

 determining the standard of good ness" in these matters than any
 others. We therefore take pleasure in introducing MT Guggenheim as a
 "good capitalist" and, if the work ingmen do not like his acquaintance it is not because we have been negli- gent in emphasizing good qualities that are recognized the world over in

Wages of $1 per day, long hours and no organiza- ton of the workers creates a situa- tion that is "boon" in the eyes of Mir Guggenheim. He is happy and his words leave no doubt that his happiness would be complete if this ''boon" were brought to the workers of this country. Shall we swat him or denounce him for his "un-Ameri- can" views.
 It is a temptation that we must forego, for his views are neither American or un-American. They are held by his class almost universally in this country, in Chile, in Germany and in all other countries wEere the factory and mach.ne has thrust his class to the front as economic rulers.

came an anarchist, Boshevik and an agent of the Russian radicals. Had he just contented himself with a po- litical change he would very likely be mighty fall, and how quickly the Bourgeoisy will throw bricks instead of bouquets when a man like Lieb- knecht tries to interfere with the pro- fit system. That he lacked sufficient support to carry his movement to a successful end seems a pitiful fact but when we survey the political situ- ation in Germany it seems that all the suffering the German people had to undergo during the war has failed to put a little political sense into the heads of good many of them.
 Ebert's success can easily be ex- plained by the fact that the German population in the agricultural dis tricts were always before the war in- tensely conservative and therefore loyal A socialist was looked upon by that class as almost an outcast, and is yet.
 The Clerical party in Germany was also bound to elect good many mem bers in spite of all the agitation of Liebknecht and his supporters. The voters of the clerical party are and always have been as a body against any modern ideas. These voters saved Ebert and his bunch.
 We'll even if Ebert wins out, it will be one great step forward for the German people who TOW for the first time in their history, and the history of no country can show the like, have the opportunity to vote without any restrictions impo~cd upon them un- der full and equal suffrage for women as well as men.
 It is a pity that Liebknecht did not live to see this day. The charge brot by the German socialists that Liehknecht was murdered may be founded on fact but it seems hardly believable that his antagonists would use such a foul method to remove him. (But then think of Madero' s fate ut even his death will not have the desired effect of killino the cause he advocated. His followers, we believe are made of better stuff than to tamely submit to Ebert and his bunch of so called socialists All though Liebknecht is dead, his cause still lives and his followers will give Ebert many a head ache yet.

These facts may enable the reader to imagine the bliss that bless es the Chilean workingmen and will enable us also to complete the intro duction we are giving MT Guggen- helm.
 He returns to his country flushed with enthusiasm over Chile, and through the Wall Street Journal de- clares that labor is plentiful in that South American state, and the ab- sence of labor unions is boon to that

with the government was in progress.
 In 1916 seven scissor grinders were
 sentenced to three months goal for
 belonging to a M"isfortune Club"
 which paid out-of-work benefit. In 1872 theemployees in the Scottish
 weaving industry refused to accept
 the rates which the justices had de-
 clared to be fair. Workers on 10000
 looms struck. The government
 straightway arrested their central
 committee of five and gave them four
 to eighteen months Imprisonment.
 The Weavers' Association was after
 yards broken up. These cases could
 be multiplied indefinitely. Of course arologists for the Combination Laws say that they also applied to the em- ployer. This was also in the in the
 letter but not in the fact Lord Fran cis Jeffrey, speaking at dinner to Joseph Hume, the great Radical poli- tician and writer. said; "A single
 master was at liberty at any time
 to turn off the whole of his workers
 at once-1OO to 1000 in number if they would not accept the wages he choose to offer. Blu it was made an offense for the whole of the workers to leave that master at once if he re-
 fused to give the wages they choose to require" Sydney Webb, in his
 History of Trades Unionism," says that During the whole epoch of re-
 precision, whilst thousands of jour neymen suffered for the crime of crime on record in which an employer was punished for the same otfense.' ] These Combination Laws were re- pealed mainly through the instru-
 mentality of Francis Place master 1 tailor in London whose work for
 unionism and for freedom to organize should be more widely known and appreciated by the movement. He was first moved to work for the re- 1 peal of these laws by the atrocious { treatment of some printers employed by the Times newspaper About this he wrote; "The cruel prosecutions of | journeymen printers on the Times newspaper in 1910 were carried to an almost incrediable extent. The judge who tried and sentenced some of them was the common Sergeant of London, Sir John Sylvester, common ly known by the cognomen of Bloody Black Jacks < x No judge took
 more pains than did this judge on the
 unfortunate printers to make it ap- pear that their offense was one of great enormity, to beat down and alarm the really respectable men who had fallen into his clutches, and on whom he inflicted scandalously un- fair sentences On another occasion,

 The flight of the German Emperor and the elimination of the German war party found him with his great gifts enlisted in the ranks of the workers eager to fight their battles and to lead them into a fairer life.
