FREELAND, DECEMBER 25, 1893.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, December 22,1893. |
Secretary Carlisle proved himself, j
during his long service in congress, to be
one of the ablest legislators the country
has produced, and his annual report, !
submitted to congress this week, places
him in the front rank of national finan
ciers. Kven a cursory glance over his
report, which makes a pamphlet of sixty
two pages, will show the enormous
amount of studying he was compelled to
do in order to familiarize himself with i
the more or less complicated subjects
with which it deals, lie strongly com
mends the Wilson tariff bill and puts
forward strong arguments to show that 1
it will greatly benefit tbe country, and
reminds the majority of tbe bouse that
it was especially elected to reform the
tarilT. lie shows the financial condition
to bo such that immediate relief by con
gressional legislation is necessary, and
points out that this may be by authoriz
ing the issue of five-year 3 per cent,
notes to run one year, to pay those credi
tors of the government who may elect to
receive them in lieu of cash.
The majority report of the house ways
and means committee, which was pre
sented to the house when the bill was
reported this week, is a long document,
but will repay careful reading and study.
It takes up and answers in detail about
every reasonable objection that has been
raised to the Wilson tariff bill, and out
lines the course that will be followed by
the Democratic speakers when the bill is
taken up in the house, which will be as
soon as congress comes together after
tlio holiday recess. Chairman Wilson is
anxious to see the bill put through the
house without having to resort to any
drastic measures, but fully determined
not to allow the debate to run beyond 1
the point of legitimate discussion. The ! 1
general impression among Democrats ,
seems to lie that about two weeks will j
be allowed for debate, with night sessions
if they are considered necessary to give
every member who desires it an oppor
tunity to express his views on the bill.
The predominating trait in the char- !
acter of President Cleveland is his man
liness in assuming responsibility for all
his acts, and it w as brought prominently !
to the front when he sent for some of ! 1
his friends in the senate and house, I
while the Republicans were engaged in I
trying to make political capital in both j
hoilies by distorting the facts concerning j
his Hawaiin policy, and told them that :
it was his desire the Democrats
should place no obstacles in the way of j
the fullest investigation of the whole j
matter. The reason the Republicans j
were so anxious to get in their speeches
before the recess was their fear that the
whole business will be entirely settled
before congress meets again.
Tbe bouse committe on banking and ;
currency adjourned for Christmas recess \
in a dead-lock over the proposition to i
report a bill for the unconditional re- \
peal of the 10 per cent, state bank tax. 1
There were only twelve out of the seven-1
teen members present when the vote re
sulted in a tie. An agreement one way
or the other will probably be reached
early in January.
II would be absurd to say that the
nomination of lion. Wayne MacVeagh
to be ambassador to Itlay was joyfully
received by democrats, but the fact of
his immediate confirmation shows there
were no hard feelings on the part of the
senators. H. I

A Valuable Secret.
I "My friend,"said the flashily-dressed
man, as he approached the unsophisti
cated youth on the street corner,
"would you like to know the secret of
enormous wealth? I have it, but cir
cumstances prevent my using it. I
will sell it to you for fifty cents."
"Well, what's the secret?" said the
young man as he passed over a silver
coin.
"First," said the flashily dressed I
man, as he prepared to move rapidly
around the corner, "first you get a lot
of money; and second, j'ou keep it."—

TO ABOLISH STRIKES.
lews of u Former Labor Leader on Tlilh
Intricate Subject.
George S. Boyle, a gentleman whose
prominence years ago in labor circles in
this region made him well-known here,
offers the following suggestions in the
Wilkes-Barre Telephone as a remedy to
prevent strikes:
In order to avoid strikes and establish
a legal remedy for labor disputes I would
I suggest something like the following.
Suppose that when the state conventions
are held to nominate the various candi
dates for governor, lieutenant governor
and secretary of internal affairs, would
it not be a good idea for each political
party to nominate a single candidate for
the position of labor commissioner to
hold equal tenure of office with the
governor and to receive an equal annual
salary. If such an official were elected
by the citizens of the commonwealth, it
is almost certain that only candidates
duly recognized by their respective con
stituents as being men of learning,
ability, and integrity of character, would
be honored by being named for such an
exalted position as chief judge advocate
of a standing court of arbitration.
In times of peace he could fulfill what
ever minor duties might bo assigned to
him us commissioner of labor affairs, and
thus exercise executive authority and a
general supervision the factory inspec
tors, and the inspectors of mines, if
necessary. Whenever any disputes or
grievances between employers and em
ployes occurred in any branch of labor
or industry, both sides of the matter at
issue should be forwith referred to the
judge advocate of the court of arbitra
tion, for immediate settlement.
The laws abolishing such a tribunal
might stipulate that two representatives
of both parties to the dispute ire appoint
ed to attend the sitting of court and after
an impartial presentation of all argu
ments and testimoney in the case it
should be promptly decided by tbe judge
advocate, whose decisions together with \
the pleadings and testimony should be
entered on public record, and the chief
points thereof published in the news- !
papers.
If after such a trial by such a court a
satisfactory and righteous verdict were
not rendered, the general verdict of
public opinion would be swift to con
demn the judge advocate, and such a
I result would prove a political injury to
the party which nominated him. This
in brief will give my idea of a new and
much needed general law embodying
the principle of compulsory arbitration
as a substitute for the ruinous and bar
borous policy of strikes and lock-outs.
Theoretically, the plan proposed by
Mr. Boyle appears to contain a few good
points, but the principle of compulsion
which underlies the suggestions offered
is antagonistic to the spirit of our laws
and to the liberty and freedom of action
of our citizens. To give one man absolute
power to end difficulties between labor
and capital would be placing the entire
laboring element of the state at his
mercy, and to believe that the fate of
the party which elected him could be
made dependent upon his decisions is to
ignore the fact that a majority of the
voters of this Republican-ridden state
are already bound, body and soul, to the
will of one who is an acknowledged em
bezzler, perjurer and destroyer of homes.
The so-called judge abvocate would owe
his election to Matt Quay, who dictates
the nominations for more than half a
million of men who dare not assert their
independence, and the acts and decisions
of that judge advocate would be only the
reflections of the debased opinions of a
boodler who could not be honest if he
tried. Mr. Boyle's suggestions, if em
bodied in a law, would make both work
ingmen and capitalists playthings in the
hands of a corrupt and depraved poli
tician.
