THE STRIKE SOLUTION

The labor situation in relation 10
politics and the government was dis
tcussed at some length by Hon e thu
Root Thursday at the New York Re-
publican convention. Mr.. Root is an
old and wise man whose long years
Of experience and high standing en-
title him to at least respectful hear
| ing
For thousands of years since his
tory was first written there has been
always continuing effort of some one
class TO lift itself at the expense of
/ al other classes. In the long run all
such efforts have met with disaster.
There is no change now and there
vii, be none soflong as human nature
remains the same. All down through
the ages the only form of government
that has endured and prospered has
been the government that sought
earnestly for the good OF all classes
OF society. The worst governments
and those which failed utterly were
those which tried to make some one
class supreme. Mr.. Root in his adj
dress says:
ut is not enough &c teach Ameri
canization II tho principles of our
/ Qovernment arc to be maintained
,lo,. ,.,,,e. he ,oniiad ~ 10 bOpa1acc
to teach them unless we practice
them. The relations between or
ganized labor in tho United States
end the public call for the definite
and conscious application of those
principles in two distinc. directions.
"The first is TO assert the control of
the whole people Of the United States
wi hin its field and the whole people
of each State within its field, over
matters essential to tho life of the
community, to the eclusion OF any
class control over ouch ma 'terS.
The second is to exercise that
popu ar control by making and apply
ing such laws and establishing such
institutions OF government as TO Sc
cure justice within the law TO the
members OF every class and calling,
so that our system Of government viii
be justified by its works.
For many years the American
people have been watching and from
time to time as individuals taking
part in the great struggle for 4 fair
division OF the newly produced wealth
Of the world between the inventors
and organizers who inaugurated now
/ en- 'erprises, the capitalists great and
SINAI, who risked theif money and
frequently 'ost 1t, the laborers whose
toll produced more than ever before,
and the consumers who purchased
the product which cost less capital
and less labor than ever before.
There has, however. been change
in the charac er Of those economic
struggles. The massing of the popu-
lation in cities where millions are de-
pendent from day to day for their
