A Little Common Sense.
TUB EXPERIENCE of a
quarter of a century teaches
plainly that the success or
tho labor union movement
Is wholly a matter of management.
If wise and Judicious leaders are main
tained in the positions of power, labor
unions live, grow and contribute their
quota to the prospetltyof the country.
Those organizations of labor which
endure nre conservatively directed, nt
all times prefer conciliation to threats
and never sacriflco essentials for non
essentials. Those which disintegrate
nre officered by Incompetent men, of
ten hot-heads, who act upon Impulse
or prejudice, and lack a settled and
consistent policy.
Tho clanger In labor unions is the
same danger which confronts men In
other combinations for mutual bet
terment In corporations, In govern
ment. It Ih the tendency of the ag
gressive, talky type, who may be ut
terly deficient In character and Judg
ment, to capturo control through tho
slowness of the conservative element
to Impress Its character and enforce
lis convictions. To meet this danger
and to guard against It Is a duty
which labor owes not only to the com
munity, but also to Itself. If It is not
met, radical counsel will prevail, arti
ficial grievances will be made the pre
text for turmoil and agitation, until
finally either trouble, culminating In
Hot and bloodshed, will come, or capi
tal will lock itself uji in its strong box
and labor will go hungry for bread.
Denial will not remove tho fact that
in our cltv, by reason of tho restless
ness and haste of labor to exhibit Its
newly.found strength, capital has been
In f-ome measure alauned. Wo con
cur In the belief that this alarm Is
umvat'i tinted; and that it is temporary
and will soon pass awny. We predicate
this belief upon the promise that tho
majority of the working people of our
city nnd valley at Jioart are fair
minded, order-loving and anxious to
deal Justly with their fellow men, be
they co-workers or employers. Wo
confidently assume that they have no
wish to precipitate trouble or by Ill
advised action to interfere with tho
prosperous development of Scranton
and its environing territory. But
whero there are possibilities of mis
chief, there should bo Increase of pre
caution. The conservative, Judicious
and experienced men and women In
our labor unions must not let tho reck
lost; younger element, the girls in short
rircs-scs and tho boys In youths'
Mou"., j mi away with them. Clear
beads and cool judgment ate called
for. AVlld filk of swift strikes on In
tangible piovoiMtlon, should be effect
ually diseomaged. Tho disposition to
electioneer for trouble should be re
pressed. Weighty issues Involving tho
good or 111 fortune of this vast com
munity at one of the ciitic.il periods
in its history should not bo committed
to flighty or capricious heads, but
should be taken hold of by the giants
of labor and wrought out prudently
nnd falily,
"ur city Is at a turning point. It
can carQ capital away and become a
drr-nty object less-on of vacant shops
and empty homes, or It can welcome
hoth labor nnd capital In friendly em
brace and with reinvigorated enter
prise go on in Its marvelous growth.
Hut it cannot go forward if labor is
to be armed to light capital or capital
compelled to view In labor something
hostllo and uncertain. Whero there is
1-ut.picion and ill-will, there is no teal
progress. These tvo necessary fac
tors in local development, capital and
litrgr, each helpless without the other,
muit bo bTo'uglit Into harmony and he
who, 9n either fide, spreads the doc
trine of dlbcord Is, consciously or un
consciously, a public enemy.

AN IDEA of the pace of things
in South Africa is afforded
by a contributor to the
'. t World's Work, who, In a
character sketch of Cecil Rhodes, pre
bents this remarkable study of con
trasts: "Ten years ago In Buluwayo: Far as
theye can reach stretches the mon
otonous bush veldt, broken only to
the' north by the long low crest of
Thabaslndttna, Lines of drooping oxen
werjd from the rooky stream, guided
by whooping Matabelo, who beat upon
their black and white ox-htde shields
witM' their kerrles, to the deep growling
cadence that accompanies all their
work. Native glrhi are rapvlng to and
Ua from the.etreamr each with a Jar
of water on her head. The sun Is
diooping behind the land of the great
weird salt-pans, the home of tho giraffe
and gemsbok. A hundred or moro war
riors in a distant corner nre droning
out a chorus, looking like fiends as
their eye balls gleam with suppressed
excitement. Lobengula squats among
them, quaffing deep draughts of millet
beer. In another quarter a thousand
long, strapping youths are decking
themselves in their war-paint, sharp
ening their spears anil axes, and meas
uring out charges for their strango
assortment of guns. They are seeing
red. Tomorrow they will bo upon the
war-path.
"Buluwayo of today: 'Cab, sahi' 'Cab,
sahl' 'Buluwayo Times!' 'Buluwayo
Times I 'such are the cries that greet
tho cars of the passengers by tho Capo
Town express as it steams into tho site
of old LobeiiRiila's blood-orgies, ilSCO
miles from Capo Town. Past tho
broad-vcrandaed hospital with Its wav
ing avenues of blue gums, past streets
of brick-built shops, past great hotels,
tho club with Its busy hum of thirst
quenchers, past the substantial stone
postofllce, and stock exchange, glanc
ing nt the distant water works, the
traveler is driven up to the step of
some comfortnblo suburban villa. The
aters, concerts, dances, sing-songs will
enliven his evening. In the morning
ho may breakfast off fresh sca-llsh or
fresh Imported pheasant. Ills news
is only two hours later than tho Lon
don news. Roads radiate in every di
rection with regular postal service to
tho outlying settlements and mines.
Two railways have been already start
ed north. Model farms, experimental
farms, nursetles, stock farms and nu
merous other experimental depots are
scattered throughout tho country."
Here you have tho whole South Af
rican story In miniature. Ten years
hence there will bo contrasts even more
striking in Orange colony and tho
Transvaal.
A writer In the World's Work, dis
cussing Cecil Rhodes, credits him with
having planned tho Jameson raid, not
expecting It to succeed, but hoping it
would precipitate a crisis that would
make South Africa Btltlsh or Dutch
for all time to come. If this was the
real Intent, It certainly has succeeded.
A Safeguard.
PERUSAL of the text of the
opinion of Judge Love, of
Center county, affirming the
constitutionality of Gover
nor Stone's recent $1,000,000 veto of the
last state school appropriation estab
lishes that a new and important prin
ciple In law has been laid down.
When the legislature two years ago,
disregarding the governor's admoni
tion, appropriated moro money for the
commonwealth's current expenses than
could bo paid out of tho current reve
nues, the governor, In exercise of the
veto power, crossed $1,000,000 out of the
$11,000,000 biennial school appropriation.
The action was sharply criticized but,
in the first full test in court, is now
sustained on several grounds.
Article ill., section 3, of the constitu
tion of Pennsylvania provides that
"No bill, except general appropriation
bills, shall bo passed containing moro
than one subject, which shall be clear
ly expressed in its title." Section 13
of same article provides that "tho gen
eral appropriation bill shall embrace
nothing but appropriations for tho or
dinary expenses of the executive, leg
islative and Judicial departments of
tho commonwealth, interest on the pub
lic debt, nnd for public schools. All
other appropriations shall be made by
separate bills, each embracing but ono
subject." Section 13 of artlclo iv. of
the constitution directs that every bill
shall be presented to the governor for
his approval or disapproval, and con
fers the power of veto. Section 16 of
article iv. provides that "the governor
shall have power to disapprove of any
Item or items of any bill making ap
propriations of money embracing dis
tinct Items, and the part or parts of
the bill approved shall bo the law,
and the Item or Items of appropria
tion disapproved shall bo void, unless
repassed according to tho rules and
limitations preset Ibed for tho passage
of other bills over the executive veto."
Article x. and section 1 of the consti
tution provides that "the general as
sembly shall provide for the mainten
ance and support of a thorough and
efficient system of public schools
wherein all the children of this com
monwealth above the ago of 6 years
may bo educated, and shall appropri
ate at least $1,000,000 each year for that
purpose." Article ix., section 4 of the
constitution provides that "no debt
shall be created by or on behalf of tho
state except to supply casual deficien
cies or revenue, repel Invasion, sup
press insurrection, defend the state lu
war, or to pay existing debts, nnd tho
debt created to supply deficiencies in
revenue shall never exceed in the ag
gregate at any one time $1,000,000."
Judge Lovo holds that tho foregoing
expressions of the constitution clear
ly Indicate tho intent of the f earn
ers thereof to carefully guatd tho state
treasury and credit; and ho considers
that the veto power was conferred up
on the governor, among other purposes,
to aid in tho accomplishment of thli
purpose. But what is the moaning of
the word "Item," as used In section 16
of article lv? In the absence of judicial
precedent to guide, Judge Lovo rules
that It Is used synonymously with the
word "part" In the same section. He
says:
Part li a piece or portion taken from the
whole. The part or parts of the bill approved
ehall be law, and the part or parti disapproved
shall be void. To hold that tho power given
Is only that of disapproving a tingle item r
paragraph or section of the bill In its entirety
would defeat the cry purpose for which the
power was given. It li tho purpose of tho con.
stltutlon to further tho cause of education and
to aid charltablo and benevolent Institutions, to
far as the revenues of the iMo will reasombly
warrant, and all appropilatlon bills, except the
genual appropriation bill, shall embrace but
ono subject and tho general bill Is Umittd to
appropriations for the ordinary expense of the
executive, legislative and Judicial departments
of the commonwealth, Interest on public debt
and for public schools. Now, II the power r(
rikapproval In the auid section is to be limited
to a alnglo Item in Its entirety, then, if the !
islature make extravagant appropriation to state
hospitals, to educational institutions in a lump
sum end not itemised, and which may not lie
necessary for their efficiently accomplishing their
work or purpose, and the approprlaticm in the
aggregate far exceed the revenuo of the state,
and would cause a cnrrcr.t Indebtedness, largely
in excess of $1,000,000, the executive Is help.
less, unless lie strike down the whole appro
priatlon mad to come of the institutions, and
thus cripple or practically destroy their pur
pose and usefulness, while others, no more ric
serving, may receive wore than j neccssny for
their efficient purpose. Tito executive ti placed
In tho dilemma of either crippling Institutions
of charity, hospital and Institution of learning,
or violating the constitution by creating a cur
rent Indebtedness of the tale In execs of
11,000,000.
Take the case In question tho appropriation
ef $3,600,000 to tho public school. The con
stltutlon makes it mandatory that the legisla
ture shall appropriate for their support at least
$1,000,000 a yeir. Suppose the legislature lud
approj rlatcd $10,000,000 a year Instead of fS.&JO,.
000 n year, and that the appropriation would
have Involved incurring a itato indebtedness of
$1,000,000 or $3,000,000 or mora) what would the
executive do to avoid violating tho provisions of
the constitution? If he wero to veto or dls
approvo of the whole Item, then he would vio
late the constitution, a It provide that $1,000,.
OnO shall be appropriated for each ear. If he
doc not disapprove, he vlolate-i the constitution
in conjunction with tho legislature in creating
a state Indebtedness in excess of $1,000,000. Is
it to bo contended that the (tamers of the con
stltutlon, on ths ono hand, sought to impoje
upon ths governor grave constitutional obliga
tions of the utmost public importance, and, on
the other band, to strip him of the very power
the exercise of which is essentially necessary to
ensble him to prrforni and discharge said obli
gations? Answering hi-? own question nnd
showing the faulty loglo of the gover
nor's critics, Judgo Lovo continues:
If any ether construction be made of mi1
section of article lv., then the very bill making
appropriation of money s'lould be specifically
Itemized. If not, then the power intended to bs
conferred upon the governor is barren and must
fall ef the purpose Intended. If the Icrlslaturo
fall to set forth ths dUtlnct items for which
an appropriation is made to a charltablo or cdn
callonal er benevolent Institution, and if the
aggregato item approved bo tnado tip of a num
ber of items, why hi not tho governor the
power, os a legislator, to investigate as to the
sundry Items appropriated, althouah not dis
tinctly ret forth In the bill, and disapprove of
any, or tome of thct.i, and only approve the ag
gregate Item to tho extent it may be reduced by
any such Item being dlrapproved? It is mani
fest that the construction above given to the
sixteenth section of article lv. of tho constitu
tion is the only one tint it corslstent with the
purpose and intent of the constitution, in view
of its other provisions. It gives rrcper effect
to oil involving this tuluckt and does violcn.-e
to none. It enables the sueccful execution
of the policy and purpoi-o of the constitution
ami state to foster and aid tho educational,
chnrltable, benevolent and state institutions in
telligently and In accord with the purpose and
intent of the constitution, without injuring or
destrojlng the efficiency or work and purpose
of any, and also to prrrcne the solvency of the
treasury nnd the credit of the state, o that
the state may bo able to meet Its legitimate cur
rent obligations.
Laying aside all factional bla?, is not
tho Interpretation hero laid down u.
prudent safeguard against legislative
carelessness, recklessness and extrava
gance? Governor Stone's severest crit
ics will one day recognize thnt he was
right and will look back with pleasure
upon tho backbone with which he held
to hH conviction regardless of tran
sient clamor and abuse.
Our present tioubles In Cuba all
como from tying our hands In advance
with a pledge which was not neces
sary and which has served only to In
tensify Cuban distrust. The eagerness
of the senate at Washington to pro
claim to tho world In sonorous rhetoric
tho ilghteousness of tho intent behind
Ametican Intervention In Cuba, Instead
of letting that Intent bo Inferred from
the spirit and tenor of our history, so
far from disarming suspicion has, as
events prove, Increased It. There Is an
adage that the woman who has to
make public declarations of her virtue
invites doubt of it and the naturally
incredulous Latins In Cuba appear to
have applied the principle of this adugo
to the protestations of the United
States as embodied in the Teller reso
lution. Yet thoie aie Americans who
want tho Cuban folly, then excusable
because new, icpeutcd deliberately In

THE ONE SURE WAY TO WIN.
Alfred C. Ilarmsworlli In Success,
A man must ipeclalUe nnd concentrate, jet
look alive and keep In touch with several phatri
of life. He should not allow his specialty to
bury lilm and blind him to all else. It is often
Imposslblo to tell JuU where the waiting oppor
tunity lies. There may be an clement of chance
In the matter. Thla it illustrated by an old
Persian sajlng about a tcitaln pavement that
was supposed to have lump of gold under it,
The man who should lift nono of the pavement,
the saying went, would get none of the gold.
He who should lift part of It might, or might
not, find gold, Put It he should lift all cl it,
ho would obtain the treaiuie.
Otir Exports of
Iron and Steel
Washington, I'cb. 3.
NO ITATUllK of the exportation of the cat.
(ndar ear 1900 lias been moro remarkable
than that of manufactures, of iron and
teel. When the total for 1S99 pawed tho
100,000,000 line much surprise was felt in other
parts of tho world, and the opinion wa ex
pressed at home and abroad that the high prices
which prevailed in the beginning of tho year
would causo A reduction of these export rather
than an Increasj. Tills wpeetatlon hat not been
rcalltcd. On the contrary the year 1000 mide
even a larger gain than did, the year 1899, and
brought the grand total of Iron and steel, ex
clusive of iron ore, up to 12l&T3,4$0, or more
than $100,000,000 in cxccM of the J ear 1S90,
when the total was a little above f27,OOO,OO0, and
moie than double that of 1S97 when it wa $52,
737,250. -o
Almost evciy important article shows an In
crease In 1000 over any preceding year, l'lg Iron
amount In 1900 to four and one-half million dol.
lars, against three and one-n.uarter million In
IKCi and two and ono-half millions in 1598.
Builders' hardwaio show a gain of about one
million dollar over 1899, and two millions over
1893. Sleel rails amoant in value to nearly
eleven millions In 1900, against six millions In
1P09. Klectrlril machinery, which Is greatly in
demand In all parts of the world, Increased from
two and onedialf million dollars in 18U8 to five
and one-quarter millions in 1900. Sewing ma
chine increased from tluee millions in 1693 to
four and onedialf millions in 100O, and tjpe
writers from two million dollars In le93 to neaily
three million In WOO.
o
The destination of the article of American
manufacture, and especially of our machinery, is
literally to every part ol the world. Our acwln,;
machines, typewriters and scientific Instruments
go to Asia, to Afriia, and to tho Ulanda of
Oceanlcaj and what Is more remarkable they en
to experienced Europe with all her facilities for
manufacturing and her skilled workmen. Of the
O,76S,0OO woith of Instrument for scientific pur.
poses, Including telephone and teleg aph Instni.
ments, over one million dollars' worth went to
the United Kingdom alone, nearly a million dol.
Jars' worth to France, and a half million dollars'
worth to Germany. The United Kingdom and
Germany each take over a million dollars' worth
of our sewing machine out of a total export i
tlon of four and onedialf million dollars' worth.
Over a million dollars' worth of typewriter ac
tually wrnt to the United Kingdom and a half
million dollars' wcrth to Germany. Of the to
tal exportalions of builders' hardware, amount
ing In alue to $9,782,402, over two million dol
lars' worth went to tho United Kingdom, nearly
a million dollars' worth to Germany, about halt
a million dollars' worth to Trance, and another
million dollars' worth to other European coun
tries. Of the $10,893,110 worth of steel rails ex
ported in 1900, over a million dollars' woith
went to L'urope and nearly four million doltara'
worth to British North America,

The following table gives the exports of rclen
