Theso nliilu ttutlm I havo said, innlnly
upon one aide, mid I will bo ns putltnnly
philn ns to tho other.
Submitting his ciiho to that piddle JudB
jnent to which wo must nil at lust defer,
.lohn Mitchell, In his latest statement, as
icmnrknbto for Hm lcstnilnt and good
temper as for Its clean Ungllsh, h.is nuld
this: "It labor makes umeasonabto clc
mnnds; It It attempts to dominate
through lolenco and Intimidation: If It
MMikH to maintain monopoly tliiotiRli sup
pression of tho rlBht of others to woik
when they nio wlllhiB to work, labor
loses Its case. If capital Is unicusonable:
it it refuses to nmko any effort towaid
adjustment of grievances; If it claims to
bo tho solo Judge of wages and conditions,
tend, above all, If while itself seeming tho
ndvnntnges of combination, It deelnies
labor shall not lima tho same advan
tages, capital loses Its case."
To tills wo must all nBrco. For one, I
will grant that ho uttus this in Kood
faith. Thero nro piuogiaphs I do not
iiBreo to, and silences which I l caret; but
this ami motion Is ciltlcal and ccuttnl.
at Is right. I think It Is slnceic. If Its
ilBhtness is Inslnccio, so much tlio wmsc
lor his cause. If it Is slnceic, and those
ho speaks for accept It, and do their hu
man best to hold weak, or wicked cxtiem
ists within its restialnt, then tho woisc
for thoso who deny its slnccilty.
Have Come to Stay.
Unions of labor have conio to stay.
Combination and "community of inlet -cst"
aio their Inherent right, also. They
ato a fact and a factor. They must bo
ictognized. They aro recognized, en In
ticking them lecognltion. A condition
must bo leckoned with. "Docs tho gen
tleman," Said tho matter of loct Speaker
Heed to ono who violently piotcsted to
tho countinc of tho actual ciuoium,
"Does tho gentleman deny that ho is
present?"
Fingers in one's ears Is an ultimatum
that two can play at. To hide under tho
bedclothes may comfoit tho child, but
will not stop tho thunderstorm. Even to
n criminal tho law docs not deny tho
light to choose his own attorney. Tho
ncdcntlals of any spokesman aio fiom
thoso who send him, not fiom those to
whom ho is sent. Tho principal accred
its his agent. Oiganlzed capital speaks
thiough its delegate; organized labor has
tho same right. If a given envoy is elif
llcult, austeic, or offensive, .so much the
worse for thoso who commission him.
Either party may request a diffcicnt leg
ate; but to piescribo how he shall bo
chosen, or to refuse all, is to break oft
diplomatic rotations. Tho right not to
deal through self-sent meddlers does not
modify tho duty to recognize thoso who
aio properly endorsed. Only fatuity chal
lenges tho right of men to act and to
.speak collectively and by whom they will.
Obviously ono hundred thousand vvoik
men cannot btato their cause scpai.Uely
to ten executive boards. The question,
gentlemen, as to Mr. Bacr, or as to Mr.
Mitchell, is not whether ho is in tho cm
ploy of tho.so to whom ho goes, but
whether ho is authorized by those from
whom ho comet..
Tho contention of tho operatois that
they may dlctato Just how their men
.shall approach them cannot hold its
ground beforo American common sense
and fair play. It will fall, It falls al
icadv; for that public which does not
qulbblo knows that practically the United
Mine Woikeis ns such, and in the person
ot John Mitchell, are bofoio the commis
sion and tho country. The uibltrary pie
cept Issues, so far, only in mutual exas
perations, and furnishes the prollllc op
portunities of marplots. Any genuine of
lort to agree must listen to all puitles
claiming to be such.
They Cannot Enjoin.
As to tho alleged non-rcsponslbillty ot
tho mlneis, because they are not incor
porated, lemembor that since they can
not be enjoined they cannot enjoin. It is
men. ruithor remember that their ad
hesion to their woid given is their whole
capital. They know thut tho countiy
watches thcra in this to see if they be
men. Under immense temptation they
havo this summer past kept their woid.
It is much. It is enough. Incoipoiatlon
may be a wise device: but It Is not the
Hist and great commandment.
As to "compulsory aibltratlon," who
wants it? It is a contradiction in terms.
'I ho essenco of aibltratlon is voluntary
onsent to take advice. If its obiter dicta
me amicably accepted It Is excellent. It
it can compel It Is but a new com I, and
we aro vvheio wo staited. Agieement find
litigation aie two opposite wnjs. It aihl
tiatlon could bo cumptiboty It would be
superfluous.
"Does 'business' mean 'Dlo ion, Hvo I."
Then 'Trade is trade' hut sings a lie;
'Tls only war gtown miserly!"
Hut, and moi cover, not only must cor
porations give tho freedom they take, not
treating equity as a thing to bo settled
by an cxparto dictum; they must also ad
mit and rectify their eriois. Tho public
ut present behoves that thero has been
evasion of law, that wages have been ia
many case3 (not in all) inadequate, that
1ho hireling has been oppressed by com
pulsory trade, that ovoi weight tons have
been exacted, that little boss have been
cheated of Hfo'a blessings by picmatmo
labor, that not coal, nlono but tho hcaita
of children have gone into the "hieak
is," that sacied human lite lies among
tho slate and tlio culm.
Is it truo? End it! Is It fahoV 1'op
Ood's sako provo it so. Tho people de
mand to know, and when thoy know they
will somehow compel substantial justice,
before tho vast, law-abiding, conseivatlvo
opinion, which, just because Puritanism
is so tremendously oxtnnt and potent,
will get itself regaidcd and obeyed! An
insertion that ceituln men nio tho "tius.
Ke3 of God" can bo wninintcd only by
tin equitable and pod-feaiiug admluls
tuition ot tho tiust.
Is this "nil a sermon? Mnke it a sons!
Good men hi a good Innd, and peace to
them all: this is the' doctrine and tho zeal
of tlio Modern Puiltan, cntcilng into tlio
labors of his fatheis,
Man! God! Conscience! And tho law
tho law of Christ!
Dr. Stryker spoke lu a deliberate,
strenuous, serious style. His declara
tions anent the philosophy of tho btilke
question wore provocative of applause,
which betokened admiration if not Wi
lli o assent. No speaker tho society hits
hud in yeais commanded more rapt at
tention. "Itoli a Wver AVIdu and Strong," a
Hamilton college song, was rendered
out of compliment to JJr, Btrvker, The
singing vvaa led by "vy. J. Toney,
PROP. TILER'S ADDRESS.
"The Evolution of the I'ilgilm" was
most learnedly and entcitalnngly dis
cussed by Prof, John M, Tyler, of Am
herst college. He was Introduced by
Pi esident 'Welles as a prominent lep
lcsentatlve of the New England edu
cator, his grandfather .and father
having been (college presidents. Pi of,
Tyler prefaced his address' with, a few
V'ood arid uppioprlate stories, and
punctuated it with many ' witticisms
and laughable1 anecdotes, He spoke as
follows: ,
;i)r. Holmes once said that tho education
of a child ought to begin at least one
hundred and lift) years beforo his birth.
Tho good Lord spent over 1,000 icurs in
stop." ' Tho Purltun did not always know
when to stop. " " ' "'
l'nrltnn blood was a marvellous Mend.
It was a mixtures ot tenacious, conserva
tive Ilicilan: brilliant, quick, versatile,
wnrllko, ndaptlblo, proud, Celtic; and of
dour Saxon. With nil this thero was
mingled a dash of Scandinavian: the
hardest, tlorcest, most independent and In
dividualistic, of nil tho races of Euiope.
Look at an English map of place-names.
Notlco the "bjs;" Denby, Derby, Scroo
by, etc. Thoso nre nil Scandinavian. So
are one-fourth of nil the nnmes of places
In Llncohishhe. Somewhat tho fmuo Is
truo of adjoining counties.
"Where tho Scandinavian nnmes am
thickest, the reformation took Its deepest
loot, and calvlnlsm flourished. It was tlio
homo of tho round-head; while southern
Saxon England was cavoller, for church
nnd king. You may not like Calvinism,
hut It could always "set up a lino of bat
tle." Said a Scotchman to one who had
promised him a thrashing: "I have no ob
jection in tho world to your thrashing
me, but, before you begin, I wish to ex
press tho hope that you nro In perfect
health." A Britlsh-Saxon-Scandlnavlnn
cnlvlnlst Is an excellent man to let alone.
This Rupert's cavaliers discovered when
they met Cromwell's Ironsides.
When tho new variety had been pro
duced, It was Isolated in a host of farms
and villages dotting tho foiests of New
England. Ileio a rurltnn laco was de
veloped. Natural conditions favored
cconomv, sclf-contiol, endurance, rugged
ness, independence, self-reliance, and
equality of oportunltv for all nllkc. Tho
son of tho poorest lnborcr might become
squlro or minister, tho ruler of tho com
munity. Hero tho "village Hampden" be
camo tho statesman of the revolution.
Hero tho Purltnn learned to found God
fearing, self-governing, states and cities.
Early In tho last centiny camo tho
great westward migration, which do
Tocquevillo described in 1S",0 as a. "deluge
ot men, rising unnbatcdly. nnd dailv
driven onward by the hand of God." Then
Hie Puritan took nossession of tho land,
everywhere laving deep and broad foun
dations for future Institutions. After him
came tho Hood of immigrants from every
country ot Europe. The new-comers saw
the foundations so wisely marked out and
so deeply laid that they could not change
them, if tliev would; and would not, it
the could. Tho Puritan had fashioned the
mold. They could onlv pour in and fill
It, nnd take Its form. This is ono of our
finest grounds of hope to-day.
Tho Puritan had marked virtues, and
was admirably fitted for his time and
work. If we once lose tho old Putitnn
conception of a free, individual, human
soul, responsible directly nnd solely to the
overliving Jehovah: If we sink in tho
Baal-worshlp of a materialistic Philistin
ism, it will surely go veiy haid with us
The Puritan at his best was not alvvajs
agreeable, and when bad, was outrageous.
"Pathcr," said one of our best young c It
lzens to his farmer sire, who persisted in
appearing on the village street In clothes
which looked as if thoy had been resur
rected behind the barn, "rather, I wl-h
you would put on some decent clothe,
when vou como Into town. T saw u tho
other day, and you looked like the devil "
"Now, Asn," said tho old gentleman re
provingly, "I didn't look quite as bad as
that, did I?" "Yes. you did, sir," re
sponded the son. "Well," answered the
father, "it I did look like the devil, I want
you to understand I calculate to some
times." Not Infrequently tlio Puritan
seemed to "calculate to."
Revolutionary Days.
John Jay and Gouverneur Morris were
talking ono evening of revolutionary
days. Said ono of them: "Did jou ever
see such a pack of scoundrels ns theie
w as in that second continental congress
"No," leplied tho other, "I do not think
I ever did." These were somo of our l ev
olutionary sires, whose widows until veiy
lately drew pensions from a grateful le
public, and whose daughters aro tho
eieam of society to-day. It tempts somo
of us to form a more select association
of the descendants of Shay's lebelliou.
Tim Puiltan did his work, and did It
well. Our work Is very different, but just
as difllcult; demanding no less strength
and wisdom, and far more tact, hope,
wisdom and patience. Wo must assim
ilate thoso whom Puiltan institutions and
Puritan prosperity has attracted. Wo
must not merely govern, we must educ.ito
and elevate, or they will drag us down.
This is a truism.
In a iielghboilng town a woman had
made tho round of tho churches stajlng
In each one as long as it listened sympa
thetically to all her complaints, and sup
ported her liberally. When she np
pioached tho leading man In tho hist
church and informed him that his chrtieli
lepresented tho onlv tine faith nnd doc
trine, lie said to her: "Madam, I'm very
glad that you have seen tho eiror of jour
wajs, but as to your Joining our chrucli,
just at present we'vo done talcing in." I
often wish thai wo could bo "done taking
in" heio In America, but that seems Im
possible. Tho woik of tho Titan Elilah was cu
rled on by tho humane Ellslia. Compaied
with the earthquake and lire of Elijah's
life, that of his successor was as un
obtrusive nnd noiseless as the still small
oleo. Yet tlio quiet, shrewd, lovable
successor probably accomplished greater
positive results than nil his nvistei's
power. So we, reeognlzlng the defeotH ns
well as the ginndeur of the Puiltan, may
well pray: "Lot a doublo poitlou of thy
sphlt be upon me."
In introducing the next uud lliial
speaker, Rev. Joseph II, Odell, of this
city, Pi esident Welles said:
However much we may voneiato thoso
who camo fiom Old England to estnblMi
a now civilization, wo cannot overlook
the fact that England of the pieseut Is
sending to us somo of her best blood,
Tho question of assimilating In tho state
and nation thoso coming fiom tho south
of Emopo gives us much concern lor tho
liiture. That fear does not enter our
winds with refeieuco to thoso coming
fiom England for they nro flesh of our
flesh and blood of our blood unci nio lulu
eotnors fiom tho land of tho Pllgilms nnd
Puiltaus. Wo welcome them and thuy
slmio with us the task of pcipctuattug
that which is best in our land. They, too,
infuse new life into our fieo Institutions
and will aid and stiengthen our faith In
tho peipetuatlng of our civil and lellgicms
llbeitles. The Anglo-Saxon ineo and tho
English speaking pcoplo nro destined lo
lule tho w oi Id. I tnko ploisuio in In
troducing to you one who Ins lectmly
made Seinntou his homo uud Held qf la
bor, linv, Joseph TI, Odell, who will now
nddi ess us on "Now England and Old
Eugluud."
It was nev. Mr. OdeU's flibt time to
be licaid, at length, outside of his pul
pit. Ho at once pioved himself no less
an after dinner speaker than lie is a
pulpiteer, and as the latter lie is ie
gaided us one of the lendeis among
jounger clergymen of the duy, His In
tel uiptions vveio fiequcnt and long by
leuson of uppluuse and laughter,
It is said that when an Englishman cle
shes a better country ho goes to New
England, but that when a New England
cr desires a better country ho has to go
to heaven. This throws somo light on
tho question, why the northern colonies
were called New England. It was on
tho same pi lnciplo as led St! John to cull
heaven tho New Jerusalem as being such
nn Improvement on tho old Jeiusalem.
But lest any descendant of the Pilgrims
should be unduly putted up by theso
compliments, I would udd thut never hav
ing been In Now England you must not
consider this uu exact statement or u
llnul verdict.
