SLAVERY OR MURDER?
,om The New York Tribune.

From the New York Tribune.
Samuel Gompers was quite right
in the abstract in saying the other
evening that "a country may suffer
hardships and privations and sur
vive. but a country in which slavery
has been reinstituted-theD freedom
I is gone and the Republic is doomed"
The truism is not germane to any
condition in this country. Mr.. Com
pers knows as well as any one else
that there has been no reinstitu-
tion OF slavery here. Never was
the wage worker as powerful in this
country as he is today. The ques-
tion that should concern is not lack
OF power but the light Of wisdom
in the use OF power.
II would have been far more to
the point had Mr.. Gompers ex-
pressed his opinion of a country in
which the SIKH Commandment is
abrogated and murder is publicly
committed with impunity. More
than a month has elapsed since the
Herrip massacre. Not single
earnest step has been taken toward
Furnishing the criminals; nor do we
recall hearing from Mr.. Gompers a
word of stern condemnation and
detestation of the crime.
Mr.. Gompers is interested and
most properly. in maintaining the
freedom of organized" working
men. But does their freedom cover
the right TO kill the unorgaDized?
Why is Mr.. Gompers so ind.fferent
to promiscuous slaughter while so
solicitous for freedom?
Mr.. Gompers. when he did not
speak against the Herrin massacs,
neglected a shining opportunity to
remove the prejudice which to some
degree exicts against unionism. He
still has open to him a chance to
place himself at the head of a posse
to round up the murderers One
may be sure should he offer to do
so that the good people Of Illino q
would not cavil over the fact that
he is not a citizen of their State.
Mr.. Gompers. by his strange silence
and inactivity. has done organized
labor a disservice.

ELIMINATING OIL REFUSE.

From the New York Tribune.
The President has authorized
preliminary negotiations for a meet
ing to determine the best means Of
preventing oil pollution of harbors
and territorial waters. Delegates
from the principal maritime nations
will be invited to this oil-upon-the-
waters conference to discuss the
subject.
The rapid increase in the num-
ber OF oil burners has made the
question OF oil refuse OF interna-
tional importance. Reports from
Europe as well as from different
portions of our own coast all go to
show that this refuse is injurious to
Ash and bird life and is not only
disagreeable 10 human beings but in
some cases Is actually dangerous
and has been blamed for causing
fires
That no solution for the problem
exists is unlikely. As a matter OF
fact there is a certain similarity
between the waste OF oil upon the
waters and the careless use by the
pioneers of some natural resources
such as wood. It still is easier to
burn wood in some parts of the
country than II is TO conserve it. In
the same way It is cheaper to pump
out the dress from the empty tanks
filled with salt water for ballast than
It IS 10 save them for proper dis
possl.
Owing to the wide spread of oil
pollution an international agree
ment as to methods Of disposal
seems wise. To enforce any laws
requiring dumping far out to sea Is
practically impossible. BY joint ac-
tion. however, much may be done TO
improve the present methods Of oil
disposal.
