AN EDITOR WITH RIGHT VIEWPOINT
Colonel Osborn of New Haven Journal Courier Discusses Anti
 9 Labor Propaganda.

Colonel Osborn, editor .sof the New Haven Journal Courier, who usually has his. facts on straight, as the late Thomas Dudley Wells, another brilliant editorial writer of this state used to remark, discusses the antagonism to or ganized labor i'll a recent issue 9f his paper as follows:
 'Just because there have been union labor leaders who have within the past few weeks led their forces in spirit F that has alarmed the public at large is no reason why the good that exists Ill the union movement should be denied and an effort made to destroy 1t. In other words, if there ever was time when common sense should be sum- moned to the bar of action, it is now.
 Fuel Administrator Garfield per forms a distinctly important service in meeting this question on the first bound and we may be quite sure that he is not moved in his attitude by u1terior, mo- tives. We are at one with him i'll his statement: I wish to say that l am as much opposed to an attempt to destroy the principle of collective bargaining and the union of working men, as 1 am to the effort of labor leaders to keep labor satisfied by a constant boosting of
 
 or to the efforts of leaders in, the indus trial world to boost profits undu1y to the hurt of the public Any attempt to com plicate the issue at this time by seeking to destroy the union of mine, workers or the principle of collective bargaining will be resented by the public and op- posed by me- The wisdom of this at titude can with good effect adorn the hat-bands of a considerable number of people in the world whose view beyond the end of their noses Is suddenly cut off.
 ITO exactly the same degree we find ourselves in sympathy with an editorial utterante of The Connecticut Labor Press of this city, the organ of the State Federation of Labor. It deals with the necessity of union members informing themselves with regard to the welfare of their association and taking part i'll the deliberations of the order 1t says with truth: Public opinion is a mighty factor and it is your duty to be able to assist in seeing that it is mould ed upon foundation of truth. Avoid the other extreme. Don't fa1i into the error that the country is in the hands of 'soulless corporations and blood suck ing capitalists That's all rot. The country is in the hands of the people and always will be. The thing to do is to see that the people really understand the true situation. We don't need a revolution-we need evolution along the right lines and 99 per cent. of the population want it just as earnestly as we dO.'
 This is the sort of approach to the consideration of the problem involved that carries all justice loving men along with it. It completely bottles up the selfish employer, on the one hand, and the fanatical labor leader, on the other hand Both are pests"

TOO CRAZY TO ORGANIZE.

At certain insane asylum one man tail of the inmates, about 20 in number, whom he kept at work in a field. A farmer who owned the adjoining land pondered over the matter from day to day, and one day he hailed the guard and asked him if he was not afraid to be out all alone with all of those men.
 Suppose" he said, they should all get their heads together some day and gang up on you. They could kill you in a jiffy. Why, you would stand no show at all"

THE UNION LABEL.

The battles of the union label are won without bloodshed. It is more power full than strikes and picketings; and is a potent warning to tyrannical employ CTS. It is puissant i'll the hands of woman or child as the menacing dec 1aration of a labor convention. It is junction can reach it, no militia or Pinkertons dare touch it, no pen will revi1e it, no pulpit assail it.

WILSON SENDS WORD
President Issues Proclamation on
Peace Treaty.
Declares Document Is Charter for New
Order of Things All Over
World,

washington, June 3O.-WOrd OF the
s1gning of the peace treaty was fol-
lowed by proclamation from Presi.
dent Wilson, issued at the White
House: 1t follows:
My Fellow Countrymen:
The treaty OF peace has been signed.
II it is ratified and acted upon in full
and sincere execution \of it's terms, it
will furnish the charter for a new
order of affairs in the world.
1t is severe treaty in the duties
and penalties it imposes upon Ger.
many, but it is severe only because
the great wrongs done by Germany
are to be righted and repaired; it i'm.
poses nothing that Germany cannot
do; and she can regain her rightful
standing In the world by the prompt
and honorable fulhllment of it's terms.
And it is much more than a treaty of
peace with Germany. 1t liberates
great peoples who have never before
been able to find the way to liberty.
1t ends, once for all, an old and intol-
cradle order under which small groups
OF selfish men could use the people of
great empires to serve their own am
bitions for power and dominion.
1t associates the free governments
Of the world in permanent league
in which they are pledged to use their
united power to maintain peace by
maintaining right and justice It
makes international law reality, sup
ported by imperative sanctions. It
does away with the right of conquest
and rejects the policy of annexation
and substitutes a new order, under
which backward nations
which have not yet come to political
consciousness and peoples who are
ready for independence but not yet
quite prepared to dispense with pro-
lection and guidance-shall no more
be subjected to the domination and
exploitation of a stronger nation, but
shall be put under the friendly direc-
tton and afforded the helpful assist
ance of governments which undertake
to be responsible to. the opinion of
mankind in the execution Of their task
by accepting the direction Of the
League of Nations.
1t recognizes the inalienable rights
Of nattonalities; the rights of minor
tiles and the sanctity of religious be-
llefs and practices. 1t lays the basis
for conventions which shall free the
commercial intercourse of; the world
from unjust and vexatious restrictions
and for every sort of international co.
operation that will serve to cleanse
the life of the world and facilitate, its
common action with beneflcent serv-
Ice Of every kind. 49,. !. ).
It furnishes guarantees such is
we're never given or even contemplat-
ed before for the fair treatment Of all
who labor at the daily tasks Of the
world. It is for this reason that /
have spoken Of it as a great charter
for a new order Of affairs. There is
ground for deep satisfaction, universal
reinsurance and confident hope
