ARBITRATION THE THING.
So Snys One Wlio Ueennrnlres EcinaK
HIKIUI For Labor and Capital.
Jest now, when the country Is being
agitated by the great labor strikes and
certain lines of business are practically
paralyzed for the time being, It might
be well to stop and think for a moment
toward what end all this Is tending and
j the price the country Is paying to settle
' these difficulties.
The main thing with the labor people
Is to secure recognition for their or
ganizations by capital. They feel that
unless they can do this their organiza
tion has failed to accomplish Its end
and they are still at the mercy of cap
! ital.
On the other hand, the capitalists
look upon this demand of labor as
sentimental and ridiculous. They rea
son that If laborers want to quit work
when they are receiving good pay and
steady employment, all because of some
Imagined grievance In the way of pub
lic recognition, let them go ahead. Cap
ital can stand it if they can.
And so the public has the spectacle
presented to It of two great classes
of producers, the tool owners and the
tool users, at swords' points, and this
I at a time of unexampled prosperity
and business activity.
The general public Is interested In
I this matter more than It cares to own.
I Its business Is In turn affected, but It Is
I forced to grin and boar It, for there
seems to he no remedy. Still the pub
lic cannot help asking the question now
and then, "Have capital and labor a
right to carry on a wnr which not only
injures themselves, but damages their
innocent neighbor as well?" When
vast combinations of capital can ap
propriate a railroad system which cov
ers practically the whole country or
monopolizes a single Industry or com
modity nnd when in self protection la
bor organizes nnd perfects its organlza
j tlon to the point where u strike will
extend from New England to Florida,
| when it will eventually bo In a posi
tion to tie up an entire system or cor
poration, tlieu where do the rights of
the public come In? Are the business ln-
I terests of the country to be ruined be-
I cause two sets of Individuals think
J they must needs fight? Is the public
| going to stand idly by and see lives
lost, property ruined and money sncrl-
I llced? And yet this Is the price we are
paying to adjust these matters, when
they could be settled by simple arbitra
tion—could be adjusted by Intelligence
Instead of force without the loss of a
cent. Is It necessary for an Intelligent
people to pay the price which will be
Inevitable unless some action Is taken?
The immediate eontmdlng parties
seem to have lost sight of everything
except what they are pleased to call
their rights. I.nbor, It Is true, has of
fered to arbitrate Its differences, but
capital seems to think it lias nothing
to arbitrate. It thinks that the propos
als of labor for shorter hours or a rec
ognition of Its union amount to an tin
warranted Interference with a business
which capital considers as its owu es
pecial concern.
Now, In tills matter capital will even
tually find that It Is mistaken. In all
lurge enterprises the men employed are
personally Interested. The output of
these Immense corporations Is not en
tirely the property of the pnrtles who
own the tools. The workmen employed,
who use the tools and make the product
of tlie corporation possible, lmve a
right to their share. If capital, through
i organizing Into a trust, Is able to appro-
I prlate to itself more of the public
■ wealth and dictate the price of labor to
Its employees more effectually, then la
j lior lias a right to organize for self pro
i teetion. If tlie trust receives recogni-
I tlon, then tlie labor organizations
j should receive It also. And the public
should see that the differences which
arise between these parties, labor and
capital, are properly und promptly ad
justed by arbitration.
It is had enough in all conscience for
the public to be robbed by exorbitant
J trust prices without having Its business
I ruined by the quarrels of these giant
j combinations.—F. J. Merrlam.
j
Women Wage Earners Protected.
Probably nothing more forcibly en
courages the Interest that women
should have in the labor unions than
■ the fact of their protection as to wages,
for it is one of the rules of the unions
that the women belonging to them and
doing the same work that does her
male coworker shall receive the same
wages. Ilere in the Atlanta Typograph
ical union there are 14 or 13 young
women who receive the same wages
as do the men who are similarly em
ployed. They are enthusiastic mem
bers of the union and probably feel
that the men of the organization are
under just a little obligation to them,
j for it was a woman member who first
brought before the Internallonal Typo
i graphical union the suggestion, which
i afterward became the enforced law,
that members of this union should
; work only six days out of the wotk.
! The members on newspapers here
! work eight hours a day, and those do
ing job work extend their time to nine
hours a day.—Atlanta Constitution.

I The National Brotherhood of Opera-
I tive Potters at lis recent convention in
| East Liverpool 0., voted to double the
| fee for brotherhood membership. A
I vigorous campaign of organization is to
j be undertaken In the east and a de
fense fund established, so that the ex-
I tra money will be needed. The change
' in the fee has long been advocated,
i , A proposition to make the first vice
| president a salaried officer was adofrt
i ed. The idea, which was recommended
by the executive committee, is to give
this official charge of the enst, where
' tlie brotherhood needs to be strengthen
ed. Trenton will lie Ids headquarters,
and one of the brotherhood officers will
be there all the time to promote the in
terests of the organization.

The committee of the German Wo j
men's General association has decided
to found in Loipsic a library consist- j
ing of books, no matter in what Inn- |
gunge, written by or about women, and
has issued an earnest appeai for lit j
erary contributions for the execution i
of tills purpose.
It Is nine years since the Transslbe
rian railway was commenced, and I
I 3,240 miles of rails have been laid, '
showing an average of 300 miles a !
j year. The connection between Europe !
j and Vladivostok is now assured by ,
means of the steamship service in the j
center of Siberia.
A veritable "quick luncheon," it is j
said, is to be had at a restaurant in
Paris, where a dinner of several j
: courses composed of concentrated food
: in the form of tablets can be consumed
1 in a few minutes. The entire meal in- ■
I deed can be carried about in the vest I
' pocket or pocketbook.
- 1 The Vermont custom of not hanging !
j j a convicted murderer until two years
after the passing of the death sentence j
upon him is founded upon the assump- J
tion that any possible doubt as to his
guilt will'be removed in that time, and
i all danger of putting an Innocent man
L , ! to death is thus eliminated.
I A machine that will do the work of
a | 30 expert mathematicians is being con
- j strueted by the government in its sci
. en tide instrument shop on Cn; Itol hill,
u in Washington. It is to be an hnprove
j ment on the instrument in use in the I
□ i bureau of the coast survey which lias
. j charge of calculating the tides.
I 1 It is said that there were at least '
(2 200,000 mustangs scattered over the
e plains of Arizona, New Mexico and

II were caught and kept by the Indians

j New York claims to be tiie sunniest
'of the large cities. The United States

l part of the country. Although Arizona
! has sometimes attained a percentage of
' SO and other parts of tin* west have
seen very clear skies, New York city
follows closely with a mean percentage
I of 30.
I Manuscripts of John WvcllPs trans-
I lotion of the* Bible into English are of
| extreme rarity, and even imperfect
specimens occur only at very long ami
Irregular Intervals. One came up for
sale In London recently. Although ln
! complete, wanting the greater portion
of tiie Old Testament, it comprises the
whole of the New Testament. The
; manuscript extends to 200 leaves and
is the work of an English scribe of
1 about 1410.
