On tlie Wrong Track.
.vIjICATIVIS of a hurtful spilit
ap.d one which organized labor
must abate before It can hope to
i onunaud the broadest public le
spect is the resolution before the Fed
eration of Labor providing that no em
ployer of 'labor shall be eligible to a
seat In the convention and Hint any
union now having employers in its
meinbeislilp shall be notified to expel
them within ninety days or forfeit its
charter.
The obvious puipose of this piopo
sition Is t - prevent employers I'lom
learning what the unions do In their
.meetings. Yel employers really anxious
to learn rarely find it dllllcult to dis
over the secrets of labor unions. That
being true in a majority of cases If not
all cases, the exclusion of employers
would have little other practical elfect
than to publish to the world that or
ganised labor Is suspicious and fearful
of its emplojds. The adoption of this
losoliitlou would be iuterpieted as a
denial of the claim, put forth in the
more dlscieet labor liteiature, that
organized labor wants to draw close to
oiganlr.ed capital, thai the aim of Its
li-aders is to lemme Impediments to n
better mutual understanding and es
tablish new relations of amity ami ron
iokI. 11 must be app.uent lo Keen observ
ois that this resolution Is an outcrop
ping of the fundamental Inllacy of the
labor movement as now conducted;
namely, that the labor union should be
an Instrument for Hie subjugation of
the employer; that Us shoulder must
sustain a ehip and its right hand hold
n club. We believe that this spilit up
counts for nine. tenths of all the oppo
tiltliui that organized labor encounters
nml tl)tit the labor union in the I'nlted
Elates will never become a genuine
micccss for tlio men who by their duet:
support It until ii type of Icuderfinjp be
I'Mils'Pil wlik h will lounigeously cast
this false prejudice on the Hemp heap
and substitute the directly opposite
policy of cultivating tiiendly lelatltlus
with employers, so that the inutuiil In
teresis of employeis and emplujed may
lie fjllldlfil ami piouioteil.
Tlio time must come when not only
wlli employers be welcome to sit In
Inlior conventions but employes will be
invited to sit In Die bo, ml iuccIIiikii or

A Common Sonse Remedy for
Anarchism.
OF THH numerous bills for the
regulation of nnarchlsin be
fore congrcsa thai of Mr. Cou
ncil, It seems to us, Is the
most practical. We published Its text
yesterday. For the benefit of those who
mlned lending It we now suinmnrliie
Its piovlslons. f'ousplrlng to kill or In
citing unother lo kill or to assault with
miiiilei'ous Intent uny chief ruler or nny
foreign slate Is made an offense against
Hie pence and dignity of the Putted
States punishable upon conviction by u
line of not more than $1000 and ImprlH
onineul for not more than ten ycuiv,
either or both, lit hard labor or other
wise. If the offender he of foreign
birth he may at the court's discretion
be deported lo the country of his birth,
or from which he last came, or of which
he Is or was lust a subject; and If nat
uralized, his American citizenship shall
be annulled.
'I.'o publicly advise the overthrow, by
fori o, of law. government or the estab
lished order of society; to publish
reading matter to this effect; to organ
ize or help to organize societies having
for their purpose the pioniulgntlon of
such views or practices; or lo knowing
ly suffer any such association, society,
organization, union, group or assem
blage to customm lly meet at nny room,
hall, saloon, grove or other place for
any such purpose shall likewise consti
tute an offense against the peace and
dignity of the I'nlted States punishable
as above save that the maximum fine
In this section of the bill is $300 and
the maximum term of imprisonment
five years. Senten.ee of deportation in
either case Is to be executed by the
marshal of the district nt the expense
of the government.
Many of the anti-anarchy bills before
congress nie fantastic. Especially so
is that of Senator Hoar, proposing to
dump all anarchists from all the civil
ized nations on an uninhabited island in
mid-ocean, there to permit them to
practice their vicious theories to their
hearts' content. Mr. t-'onnell's bill has
the merit of being simple, plain and
enforclble. There is absolutely no men
ace In it to any law-abiding citizen.
No man could be punished unjustly by
It save through perjured testimony or
connivance of the jury perils that Im
pend over all prosecutions for crime.
On the other hand, the punishment pro-
ided for the practitioner or abettor of
anarchy, while not merciless or vindic
tive. Is adequate. Its administration in
a few conspicuous cases would soon
have a deterrent influence upon those
notoriety seekers who espouse the doc
trines of anarchism for the opportunity
to exploit themselves.
We see only one possible difficulty In
the enforcement of this measure which
is not inherent in the nature of the
crime, That is foreign objection to de
portation. Where an Inhabitant of tlio
I'nlted States retains his foreign citiz
enship, our pathway to deport would
be clear, lint where ho had renounced
all foreign allegiance nnil assumed
American citizenship, our right to de
port could doubtless be questioned. The
bill, however, meets this uncertainty by
pulling tlio enforcement of deportation
within the discretion of the judge. The
Judge could either deport at once or Im
prison with deportation as a punish
ment in reserve. Failure to effect de
portation In the first instance would
yel leave open the punishment of line
or impilsonment or both, with hard
labor addable, thus opening no loop
hole for the culprit's escape.
The fact thai a. gang of Cleveland nn
archlsts called themselves the "Liberty
association," did not prevent the police
I mm forcibly adjourning their session
the other night. There seems lo be
much misconstruction of the word "lib
erl " nowadays.
